Chapter 137: 106 Nuns_2

Fang Zhixing thought to himself, "Indeed, in these troubled times, there are pitiful people everywhere."

Being homeless was a common phenomenon.

He paused thoughtfully and then spoke, "I will arrange a place for you."

The girls lifted their heads and looked at Fang Zhixing with eyes full of hopeful intensity.

"Come with me."

Fang Zhixing turned and walked out of the dungeon, and the girls immediately followed him closely, as if afraid of being left behind.

They came outside, into the sunlight.

The girls finally saw the long-missed sunlight; they all raised their hands to shield their faces, squinting their eyes.

After a moment, their eyes gradually adjusted to the outside light.

They then saw the corpses strewn all over the manor grounds, in disarray, along with scattered bits of flesh and blood.

However, they did not scream in terror; rather, it seemed all too familiar to them.

Along the way, they had seen many people die and had witnessed various decaying bodies, and they had grown numb to it.

Fang Zhixing looked at them and asked, "Which of you can cook?"

"I can!"

"I also can!"

Most of the girls raised their hands.

Fang Zhixing nodded and said, "First, go to the kitchen and prepare breakfast. Remember to boil plenty of water for later so you can take a bath. I’ll go find you some clothes."

"Yes!" the girls obediently went to the kitchen, hand in hand.

"Woof woof~"

Xigou ran around them excitedly, leading them to the kitchen.

Fang Zhixing turned away and casually strolled around the estate, occasionally entering a room to search and scavenge.

He took any good clothes he found and also moved out a few large bathtubs.

About half an hour later, breakfast was ready.

Fang Zhixing and the girls sat at the table and ate breakfast.

They were extremely hungry and ate voraciously, consuming a lot.

After the meal, they went into a large room, poured hot and cold water into the bathtubs, adjusted the temperature, and happily took baths.

Xigou was extremely happy and wanted to climb into the bathtub for a bath, perhaps dreaming of sharing a bath, but unfortunately, it was kicked out by Fang Zhixing.

Fang Zhixing began moving boxes of Gold Cakes and Gold Beans into the cart.

In addition, the storehouse contained many medicinal herbs, fabrics, weapons, and food, too much to fit in one cart.

But Fang Zhixing was not so greedy; he only wanted the money.

More than an hour later, the girls had finished bathing and had transformed completely, looking fair and tender.

They each picked out a beautiful dress to wear.

The garments could be described as made of silk and brocade, splendid and lavishly adorned with gold and jewels.

Many of them had never worn, touched, or even seen such soft and vibrant clothes before.

The girls put on the pretty dresses, twirled about happily, and cheered, finally regaining some vitality.

Fang Zhixing found two horse carts in the manor.

The girls split into two groups and gradually boarded the carts.

The two oldest among them each took the reins and led the way.

Fang Zhixing also took the reins of his own cart and slowly drove out of Seven Evils Manor.

The group then reached the main street of Chizhu Town.

At that moment, the townspeople were going about their day as usual, completely unaware that the dominating Seven Evils Manor had been destroyed.

Fang Zhixing inquired among the townspeople for the location of the nunnery.

He found out that the nunnery was not far from the town, in the northeast of Chizhu Town, less than ten miles away.

Moreover, a wealthy benefactor had funded a road to the nunnery in the past, making the transit very convenient.

Thus!

Fang Zhixing immediately led them there, walking at a leisurely pace, but nonetheless arrived within an hour.

As Fang Zhixing looked up, he saw above the vast Red Pearl Lake, surrounded by green mountains and blue waters, an ancient temple stood, encircled by dense forests with gentle breezes brushing against the face.

An inscription hung over the temple gate, bearing the words "Shuijing Temple."

Above the outer wall were beautifully inscribed esoteric Buddhist scriptures, enveloping the area in a sacred aura.

Fang Zhixing approached the temple gate and knocked.

Shortly, the door opened.

An elderly nun, well past her prime, came out. She looked up at the imposing Fang Zhixing and then at the well-dressed girls, bringing her hands together in a puzzled frown and asked, "Honored patrons, what brings you here?"

Fang Zhixing replied, "My name is Fang Zhixing, a wanderer of Jianghu. Yesterday, as I passed by Chizhu Town, I heard that Seven Evils Manor was abducting local girls for trafficking, committing countless injustices. Out of indignation, I infiltrated the manor and rescued them."

The elderly nun’s expression changed drastically.

Seven Evils Manor was the local tyrant of Chizhu Town, and its master, Huang Minghao, was the tyrannical ruler here.

It seemed, from what this young hero implied, that he had toppled Seven Evils Manor.

Otherwise, given Huang Minghao’s greed and cruelty, why would he simply let these girls go?

"Please wait a moment, young hero. I will go inform our abbess," said the nun.

The elderly nun again brought her hands together, turned around, and hurriedly went inside.

A moment later, seven or eight nuns came out through the gate.

The leader appeared to be under fifty, with a beautiful and extraordinary appearance, exuding kindness and giving off an aura as comforting as a Spring Breeze.

She glanced around, raised a hand, and said warmly, "I am Yun Xin, the abbess of Shuijing Temple. You are welcome here, honored patrons."

Fang Zhixing bowed and responded, "Junior Fang Zhixing greets Abbess Yun Xin."

The group of girls followed suit, performing well-practiced bows.

Yun Xin smiled and said, "The wind is strong outside, please come in and rest."

Fang Zhixing saw no reason to refuse.

The group entered Shuijing Temple.

Inside, the temple had gray-white courtyard walls, bluish-gray eaves on the halls, and verdant ancient trees reaching to the sky.
