Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1045: Towards Yi Shui Temple (2)

Feng Ao Kuai rolled the map and asked the servants to prepare horse. He then turned to look at Nan Luo. "If the one who did it is not her, then it can only be someone she knows. If I'm not wrong, she had several senior brother and senior sisters from the same Master and they should be very skilled in terms of medicine and poisons."     

"Why are you not suspecting someone from that Zhang something organization?"     

"That's because they're from Zhang Xu Kingdom. Who would kill their own people?" Feng Ao Kuai rolled his eyes.     

Unless one had turned crazy, they wouldn't do something like that. Feng Ao Kuai knew very well that it was the case when he read the report about the battle at Han Yuan City. There must be a traitor.     

And if Nan Hua were to disappear at that time without anyone noticing, the highest possibility was for her to be the one who wanted to.     

Because of that, Feng Ao Kuai felt that Nan Hua must have known this person who released the poison.     

Nan Luo pursed his lips. "Then, wouldn't it mean that they're not doing their work as a doctor?"     

"Yes, they are."     

"So…"     

"But no one ever said that they're full fledge doctor." Feng Ao Kuai had heard the matter about Traveling Doctor Liu's disciples from his grandfather. He didn't know whether Nan Luo knew or not but Traveling Doctor Liu's disciples came from various background and ended up in many other professions.     

Not all of them were doing work as a doctor.     

One of them was even an Emperor…     

*cough*     

In short, Feng Ao Kuai believed that they could do anything. "Anyway, the area that's relatively peaceful is the temple. It won't be attacked as long as it didn't side with any kingdom, so most people wouldn't even go there. If she really wants to disappear, this should be the first place for her to pick."     

"Why does she want to disappear?" Nan Luo asked again.     

"I don't know."     

"Huh?"     

"You have to ask that question to her when you see her again."     

Nan Luo was utterly speechless. However, he would rather gamble on Feng Ao Kuai's speculation rather than his own speculations. The time when he was beaten by Feng Ao Kuai because the latter had analyzed the road first had already occurred a few times.     

He didn't want to repeat the past.     

"Alright, let's go."     

…     

Feng Ao Kuai was not the only one who set his sight on Yi Shui Temple. Dark Moon Organization had mobilized their people to check the surroundings area, including the cities that belonged to Zhang Xu Kingdom covertly.     

They didn't manage to find anyone who entered secretly.         

And when some of them found out about the temple, the two who were the closest to the area: Chu Yue and Nan Si, both rushed there.     

Yi Shui Temple was related to Yi Shang Temple.     

At the very least, it was built at around the same time and similar teaching within it. There were also a few monks around.     

Nan Hua was sitting on the bed. She could still remember that after she was on the verge of fainting, a maidservant from the temple found her. The maidservant brought her here and called some doctors to check on her.     

She was fine.     

Just exhausted.     

After that, Nan Hua had been sitting here, looking at the ceiling with blank gaze. There were many things swirling inside her mind, churning here and there, clashing their thoughts against one another.     

"Are you awake?"     

Nan Hua stayed still.     

The person who came was a monk who usually busy to chant scripture and so on. He was bald and wore a loose robe. Slowly, he stood up in front of Nan Hua, looking at the young girl's expression.     

"For such a young girl, you sure have an interesting air." The monk took a deep breath. "This world is imperfect and there will be deaths. You can't stop it if it's already their time, Young Girl."     

Nan Hua's eyes flickered as she looked at the monk in front of her. "What if I know that there's a different ending for her if she picks different choice?"     

"What she decides is ultimately her decision." The monk chuckled. "The world doesn't revolve around you. Why should you blame yourself for what other people had done?"     

Nan Hua was silent.     

That was true.     

Even if her action had influenced some things, the one who made the decision was ultimately her senior sister. Should she stay silent and followed the same script where it was stated that she would die a miserable death without being able to do anything?     

People were selfish.     

And Nan Hua knew that she was not an exception.     

When she knew her own fate, she would work to change it and in the process, it would definitely affect others. It was inevitable.     

"Why do I come to this world, to this era, as myself?" Nan Hua asked softly.     

It was unknown whether she asked this to herself or she asked this to the monk before her. But even if she asked it to him, there was no way that he would have the answer.     

The monk smiled. "You know the answer in your heart. Everyone's life is different and it's impossible to be exactly two lives that are the same."     

Nan Hua raised her head. "You're not like a monk."     

"I'm still a monk here." The monk chuckled. "But I do admit that I have some different views compared to the others."         

"Thanks, again."     

The monk arched his eyebrows. "Little Girl, it's not good to be so knowledgeable."     

Nan Hua didn't answer. She could faintly sense the monk's martial arts. At the same time, she recognized him as the same monk who was usually in Yi Shang Temple. However, he would never make a move.     

He simply stayed in the temple, chanting scripture and practice his own martial arts without involving himself in the matter of the world.
