#341 - I'm not stupid

Chapter 341 I'm Not Stupid.

Looking at Shixin standing in front of him.

Xu Ming was stunned for a moment.

Shixin, in front of Xu Ming, was also stunned for a moment.

Immediately after, Xu Ming, who reacted first, held the long sword in his hand and walked step by step towards Shixin.

Shixin just stood there.

Xu Ming raised the long sword in his hand and slashed down at Shixin.

Shixin's pupils shrank sharply, and he pinched a magic seal, a golden bell cover appeared on Shixin's body.

"Clang!"

The sword energy slashed on Shixin's golden bell cover, making a dull sound, as if Xu Ming had struck the bell hard.

This was also the first time Xu Ming felt Shixin's defense.

Not bad.

As expected of someone who maxed out defensive spells.

Shixin's defense is really powerful.

No wonder the abbot of Leiming Temple was relieved to let Shixin, this little white rabbit, travel the world.

Although Shixin would not kill people, and although Shixin was very kind.

But, ordinary people really can't break Shixin's defense.

Unusual people, such as those whose realm is higher than Shixin, they don't dare to attack Shixin.

After all, no one wants to provoke the anger of the abbot of Leiming Temple.

"A bit of something, let's try again."

Xu Ming thought in his heart, and soon, Xu Ming slashed at Shixin again.

Shixin didn't strengthen his spell, but just looked at Xu Ming calmly, as if he was just waiting to die.

But this time, the golden bell cover on Shixin's body shattered instantly.

A cold light flashed across Shixin's face.

The long sword in Xu Ming's hand was already resting on Shixin's neck.

"Why didn't you dodge?" Xu Ming asked with a smile, "Did you guess that it was me early on?"

Just now, Xu Ming actually deliberately slowed down by half a beat. If Shixin wanted to dodge, she could have dodged completely.

But this girl still stood there foolishly.

In Xu Ming's opinion, there was only one possibility: the other party guessed that he was real.

Shixin nodded: "Mmm."

"How did you guess?" Xu Ming asked.

"When you swung the second sword." Shixin's golden eyes blinked lightly, "When you swung the second sword, your eyes had a taste of mocking me."

"." Xu Ming was speechless for a moment, "Then tell me, what am I mocking you for?"

"You are mocking me for being stupid." Shixin's tone was a little resentful, her mouth slightly pouting, "You must be thinking, this person can't recognize the real from the fake anyway..."

Xu Ming: "."

Not to mention, Xu Ming was indeed mocking Shixin for being stupid.

In fact, from the beginning, Xu Ming recognized that this Shixin was real.

As for why, Xu Ming couldn't say.

It's just that when the real Shixin appears in front of you, you will feel it – so, a truly pure girl is like this.

When you have seen the fake Shixin, and then see the real Shixin again.

You will realize even more deeply –

The girl in front of you is really too pure. She is like a stream of clear water, standing in front of you, not competing, not snatching, without desires or demands, just quietly looking at you.

That kind of feeling and temperament cannot be presented by any illusion.

But after recognizing Shixin, Xu Ming wanted to tease her, wanting to see what kind of reaction she would have when facing death under his sword.

As a result, he didn't expect that he would be recognized by Shixin.

"I'm not stupid!"

Just as Xu Ming was silent, Shixin raised her head, looked at Xu Ming seriously, her tone and expression seemed to carry a bit of stubbornness.

This bit of stubbornness, presented on her flawless face, also carried a bit of cuteness.

"You're really not stupid." Xu Ming put away his long sword.

As if she had received Xu Ming's praise, Shixin's eyes lit up, and she leaned closer to Xu Ming, curiously asking: "Then how did you recognize me?"

Xu Ming thought for a while: "Because you are stupid. When you stood there, I felt a silly temperament. No one can simulate this temperament."

After speaking, Xu Ming ignored Shixin and turned around to walk out of the courtyard.

Watching Xu Ming gradually walk away, Shixin pinched her kasaya and muttered softly: "You clearly just said I wasn't stupid."

"What are you standing there for? Let's go." Xu Ming turned around and shouted at Shixin.

"Oh." Shixin nodded and quickly followed.

"Xu Ming, what is this place?" Walking beside Xu Ming, Xu Ming raised her head and asked.

"Who knows what this place is." Xu Ming yawned, looking indifferent, "But it shouldn't be a secret realm, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to meet you. It's probably a barrier or something."

"Oh." Shixin nodded again.

Xu Ming turned his head to look at Shixin: "Are you afraid?"

Shixin shook her head: "Not afraid."

"Really not afraid? I feel like there is a very strong existence in this place, probably very tricky." Xu Ming said, "We might not even be able to get out of this barrier, and then be destroyed together with the Rootless Secret Realm."

"Really not afraid." There was indeed no trace of fear in Shixin's eyes.

"Why aren't you afraid? Are you so confident in yourself? Do you think you can get out?" Xu Ming asked curiously.

"Because you are here." Shixin looked at Xu Ming seriously.

Xu Ming was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "What do you mean by because I am here? I am not omnipotent."

Shixin lowered her head and thought for a while: "I'm not sure either, but anyway, I'm not afraid when you are by my side, and I don't need to think too much."

"Alright."

Although Shixin's words were a bit like expressing affection, Xu Ming didn't think in that direction at all.

It must be that he had taken her through many crises, and she had developed a sense of trust in him.

"Dong dong... dong..."

Just as Xu Ming was leading Shixin to find an exit.

In the entire temple, the sound of bells rang out one after another.

In the next instant, the scenery around Xu Ming and Shixin gradually twisted.

When the surrounding space stabilized again, Xu Ming and Shixin returned to the front of the temple's main hall again.

It was as if Xu Ming and Shixin had not taken a single step after entering the temple.

In addition, one by one cultivators also appeared in this temple.

They looked at me, I looked at you, and didn't know what had happened.

Following closely behind were corpses, one after another.

Many people even had blood on their hands.

And before, whether it was the stone men or the stone lions, or various illusions, killing them would not produce blood.

There was only one truth, and that was that these cultivators had killed others in the previous "illusion".

"My Buddha is merciful."

A childish voice rang out in the temple.

Everyone looked forward.

On the many Buddha statues in front, a statue about the size of a five-year-old child gradually transformed into a person with flesh and blood.
