Looking at the old monk collapsed in front of the door, Chu Ge was at a loss for words.
After all that trouble, it turned out he was just showing off.
He shook his head with a smile, did not harm the old monk, and quickly left the monastery.
Running down the mountain path's stone steps, Chu Ge suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
"Could it be that the evil spirit hasn't been completely eliminated?"
Chu Ge wondered, astonished.
After hesitating for a while, he returned the way he came.
Stay another night!
…
Abbot Green River woke up from his slumber, propping himself up on the doorframe to sit up.
It was still night.
He looked back in alarm, but everything inside the temple was normal, undamaged.
He breathed a sigh of relief and murmured, "Was I knocked out by the smoke? There can't possibly be a giant lion here."
He patted his chest, trying to calm himself down.
