There are some things that are not suitable for him to do personally, so Zoya, his direct disciple, can take on the responsibility.

Zoya came outside and walked for a while. In front of it was an open-air resting place and reception area. It was relatively simple for the time being, without many facilities, only simple futons for people to rest and wait.

At this time, the three men waiting here raised their heads.

The other two are guards, and only the chubby man in the middle is the master.

He raised his fat face, looked at Zoya with a smile, and shouted loudly: "Miss Zoya, what did the master say? I am a disciple sincerely."

"My master will go to Hulan City soon. Let's talk about it later if we are destined to do so." Zhuoya showed a majestic image of a lady when facing outsiders. Although she is not old, she has initially shown the temperament of a beautiful woman, mixed with a hint of bookishness.

, quite different from ordinary prairie women.

"We are destined, we must be destined, Senior Sister Zhuo Ya, we are greatly destined, hehe..."

The fat man chuckled, looking up and down Zoya's body with his eyes, his Adam's apple rolling when he swallowed.

Zoya suddenly felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

This fat man has evil intentions!

In this case, there is no need for her to show any good looks.

A layer of frost covered Zoya's face. She clapped her hands and said, "Send off the guests."

Several big men immediately emerged from the surrounding tents. They were all strong men from the prairie. They all had knives in their belts and had strong backs and strong waists.

They are bodyguards voluntarily selected by the nearby herdsmen, specifically used to protect the safety of Master Qiku and Zoya.

Moreover, their martial arts have been taught by Master Qi Ku. They already have the strength of prairie men, and they have learned some moves from Da Qi martial arts, so ordinary warriors are no longer their match.

"Let's go now..."

Originally, he was thinking of lingering for a while, but when the fat man saw this posture, he was immediately frightened. He immediately forced out a smile, stood up and bowed.

Watching the fat man flee with the two guards, Zoya wrinkled her nose and snorted coldly.

In the past, when she was the daughter of a poor family, there was nothing she could do about a playboy from a rich family, but now the situation is different, and she is no longer afraid of such a playboy.

This is all because of becoming Master’s disciple.

Zoya knew who she was most grateful for. A child with an ill-fated fate. If he had not met Master Qi Ku, he would have perished on the grassland by now.

You know, the lives of prairie people are really worthless.

Back in the camp, Master Qiku had stopped chanting sutras and had finished his homework for the day.

"Has it been solved?" Master Qiku asked.

"Get rid of that little fat guy, he's not a good thing." Zoya said angrily.

"It's normal. Later, you will find that that kind of person is still a good person, but there are more cunning and vicious people everywhere..."

Master Qiku recited a Buddhist verse and then said: "In the past few days, we should pack up our belongings and ask people nearby to send us to Hulan City. There are many thieves along the way, so we cannot take it lightly."

"Master, tell me, King Hulan values ​​you so much, why doesn't he send someone to escort you there?" Zoya said with some confusion.

"Don't think too highly of King Hulan. It's true that he likes Buddhism, but he treats Buddhism more as a tool. He can't put down everything to worship Buddha. This also determines that on the surface, he can't treat us

Connect to Hulan City... He cannot offend the priests of Hulan City!"

Master Qiku pointed out the key point.

"The divine power and the royal power are interdependent, but mutually exclusive... King Hulan felt that Hulan's priests had too much power and had affected the royal power, so he wanted to recruit a sect to check and balance the priests, and we

Just what he needs."

Master Qiku explained in detail.

Zoya sighed and said: "Master, the human heart is so terrible. There are so many twists and turns in it. I thought King Hulan truly served the Buddha."

"It doesn't matter if he's sincere or not. What's important is that he made a gesture and came to invite him in person. Then, the poor monk will act as a knife for him as he wishes, but will this knife be used as a knife in the end?

If he hurts himself, there's no telling." An imperceptible smile appeared on Master Qiku's lips.

Others thought he was an ascetic with a strong mentality and wanted to take advantage of him, but who would have thought that he had a backer behind him.

As long as he has a firm foothold, he will convey his current situation, and in a large grassland city like Hulan City, where Da Qi hidden guards lurk, it is easy to convey the news.

"Master, what about our cattle and sheep?"

Zoya was a little reluctant to part with them. These days, she received dozens of cattle and sheep. Seeing them every day, she felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart. This is an instinct of prairie people.

"Leave it to the reliable herdsmen nearby. They won't take the cattle and sheep for nothing. We will wait until we settle down in Hulan City."

"But, does it take a long time to build a temple? Then where should we stay when we go to the city?" Zoya asked worriedly.

The cost of living in Hulan City is very high. If she can't find a permanent place to live, she won't be able to survive for too long with the little money she has.

"Everything depends on fate, Amitabha." Master Qi Ku said a Buddhist verse.

Zoya felt that she couldn't ask any more questions. Anyway, every time she encountered difficulties, Master would say to just let it happen, and she didn't know where the fate came from.

Since Master Qiku had this attitude, Zoya no longer dwelled on this topic, but began to take out a pen and paper, copying scriptures and practicing calligraphy at the same time.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, daily homework is essential.

Although she is talented and intelligent, the meaning of Buddhist scriptures is very mysterious and difficult. If she wants to make progress, she must study it with all her strength.

She has always been serious about her attitude towards learning.

Because she knows that this is her destiny and it is hard-won, so she cannot slack off and live up to this fate.

A few days later, Zoya and Master Qiku, who had packed up, got on the carriage and headed towards the direction of Hulan City.

"That's... a wolf pack?"

On the way, Zoya saw wolves again, appearing nearby from time to time.

"Master, could it be Xiao Hei here?"

Zoya gave the black wolf a name, Xiaohei, but she only called it that when talking to Master Qi Ku, and she never told anyone outside.

"That's it, it's protecting us."

Master Qiku said calmly: "People say that wolves are cruel and cunning in nature, but in the final analysis, wolves do everything for survival. What is really cruel is not wolves, but people. Wolves hunt to fill their stomachs. People eat people, and their desire has already been
