Chapter 29 Brother, what a coincidence!
by MachineSamurai9124Hot pot restaurant.
” A-dao, you have great taste, you know how to pick a place! I love this hot pot restaurant!”
The bald, burly man devoured the food, leaving a small mountain of empty plates beside him.
Zhang Chongba gave a thumbs-up, acknowledging A-dao’s good taste, and then greeted the boss, Dao.
“Boss, add more meat! We’re all out of meat!”
Today, Master Ba was wearing a bright floral shirt, and a light sheen of sweat glistened on his shiny bald head, reflecting the store lights and making him quite eye-catching, attracting the attention of many female passersby.
Cold Blade stared at the shiny, gleaming bald head in front of him with an unfriendly expression.
If it weren’t for this bald guy, he would have met 【Cicada】 a few days earlier.
This guy insisted on dragging him to meet the so-called Taian City martial arts expert. Genius.
In such a rural area, there isn’t even a home theater, and there’s no basic Genius screening mechanism. What kind of waves can it make?
Let alone the younger generation of dragons, there aren’t even any fish or shrimp with Aptitude.
As for those with profound Zen understanding and a connection to Buddhism, they are like finding a needle in a haystack.
” A-dao, you should eat too, don’t be shy! “
Eighth Master greeted him very warmly; anyone who didn’t know him would think he was the Lord of the East.
He cooked a pot of meat, symbolically picked out a piece for Cold Blade, and ate the rest into his own bowl.
Cold Blade’s stern Dao: “Hey Zhang, don’t say I didn’t warn you, you’d better have the sense to pay the bill yourself later!”
Zhang Chongba was struck dumb; the meat in his bowl suddenly didn’t taste good anymore.
He wiped his sweat and chuckled dryly, “Wasn’t it your online friend who treated us?”
Cold Blade coldly said, “It’s me who’s being invited, not you! Who can eat a whole cow like you! My friend’s family isn’t well-off; they can’t afford to invite a pig like you!”
Zhang Chongba awkwardly replied, “Just eat whatever you want, just eat whatever you want.”
To be honest, he was very curious about the “online friends” that Cold Blade mentioned.
After all, this whole thing can be summed up in just two words:
abstract.
Cold Blade, a newly appointed Special Agent of the Federal Religious Affairs Bureau, voluntarily left his post to meet an online friend.
Abstract, so damn abstract.
Moreover, he had just eaten two extra bowls of beef, which made this guy anxious and worried. He had every reason to suspect that this so-called online friend was a girl with a slim waist and long legs.
So he shamelessly followed along this time, just to see what kind of little devil could affect A-dao’s speed of drawing his sword.
The clock on the wall pointed to seven o’clock.
The store was just beginning to get bustling with people.
The air was filled with the sounds of noisy conversations, the bubbling of hot pot broth, and the aroma of spicy and savory food.
” Knife-Lord?”
A question posed with doubt.
A boy stood there, looking on with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty. He glanced at the bald man in the floral shirt on his left, then at the handsome man with long hair on his right, before finally settling his gaze on the right.
Cold Blade, known for his cold demeanor, showed a rare smile:
“cicada?”
The code was correct.
Ji Jingqiu sat down and said apologetically, “Sorry I’m late. My real name is Ji Jingqiu. Knife-Lord can call me Xiao Ji or Jingqiu.”
Cold Blade nodded to Dao: “My real name is Cold Blade. I’ll call you A Qiu.”
Ji Jingqiu winked. Knife-Lord is a real man; he actually registered his real name online!
” Knife-Lord, is this your friend?”
He glanced at the bald man standing to the side, who looked every bit the bandit, and felt that this guy had a very distinctive personality.
Bald head, floral shirt, thick gold chain.
That fits certain stereotypes too well!
“My colleague.” Cold Blade nodded. “You can just call him Lao Ba.”
Zhang Chongba was completely stunned at this moment.
His face twitched, his eyes widened, and he stared incredulously at the boy in front of him.
Holy crap! What did I just see?!
Is this a human being?
What’s inside this Zen-like atmosphere? Is it a walking embodiment of Zen?
Even the kids from the Mu family who grew up in temples don’t have even a tenth of this Zen spirit!
Mu Family Old Ancestor became Reincarnation?!
This connection to Buddhism… is a bit too deep!!
The “person with Buddhist affinity” that he couldn’t find even after searching the entire Taian City just walked right up to him.
Zhang Chongba took a deep breath, laughed unabashedly, and asked, “Young man, what’s your surname, Ji? Which Ji?”
“Season of the seasons”.
“That’s Brother Ji!” Zhang Chongba exclaimed cheerfully. “Lao Leng and I are partners, known as Eighth Master in Jianghu. If you don’t mind, just call me Eighth Brother!”
After saying that, he began to subtly inquire about Ji Jingqiu’s information.
Upon learning that Ji Jingqiu had recently begun learning martial arts and had become a student of Yangyan Martial Arts School, Zhang Chongba slammed his fist on the table, excitedly exclaiming:
“Brother, what a coincidence!”
” Is the owner of Yangyan Martial Arts School named Yangyan? That’s my second uncle! My own brother!”
“No wonder I felt a sense of familiarity, like I was with a family member, as soon as you walked in!”
“If you become my second uncle’s disciple, then isn’t he my own brother?!”
For some reason, the bald man’s speech… Ji Jingqiu found the name strangely familiar.
He thought back carefully and remembered a comedy spy movie he had seen in his previous life called “Penetration,” starring Sha Yi, the famous Great Master and “Golden Bell Iron Shirt” Legacy.
There’s a character named Chen Ming who, when he can profit from the waiter played by Sha Yi, affectionately calls the latter “brother” repeatedly.
Ji Jingqiu looked at Knife-Lord.
Unlike Knife-Lord, who is taciturn but inexplicably reliable, this bald man looks unreliable at first glance.
Cold Blade also frowned as he looked at the bald man.
This guy has been in Taian City for over a week, and he hasn’t gone to see his second uncle yet. It’s obvious what their relationship is like.
The only way to describe their excitement at recognizing each other here is with just four words.
“They’re either wicked or thieves.”
Cold Blade looked at Ji Jingqiu and uttered four words.
Zhang Chongba’s face immediately fell.
He was heartbroken; A-dao wasn’t on his side at all!
With a sigh, Zhang Chongba decided to get straight to the point. Since everyone around him was on his side, he decided not to beat around the bush.
He coughed and lowered his voice, “Brother, have any strangers tried to recruit you into the church lately?”
Ji Jingqiu was startled, and the image in her mind instantly froze on a man with a buzz cut and that piece of blood jade.
He looked at the bald man with a serious expression.
They shouldn’t be in cahoots, right?
Seeing his expression, Zhang Chongba chuckled: “Brother, did that guy tell you that you have a deep understanding of Zen and that you have an affinity with Buddhism, and then he patted you lightly on the shoulder?”
Before Ji Jingqiu could speak, Cold Blade frowned and asked, “Is Achan the kind of person you’re talking about?”
He knows Dao Zhang Chongba possesses a special pupil technique, making him exceptionally skilled in recognizing people and tracking them.
They spent the entire week exploring Taian City, searching for Li Buyi and devoting their spare time to finding the Genius Zhang Chongba had mentioned as having deep Buddhist connections. On Martial Artist.
Zhang Chongba chuckled and said, “Not only that. That bastard Li Buyi has mastered a tracking technique. As long as a mark is placed, even if it’s thousands of miles away, he can still sense it using the positioning in Mind Sea.”
The mark of this secret technique is invisible and intangible, but it can’t escape my eyes. My brother now has the Dao mark on his shoulder!
Cold Blade’s serious expression meant that Ji Jingqiu had already met Li Buyi!
He looked at Ji Jingqiu Dao: “A-Chan, is that true?”
Ji Jingqiu calmed down and said: “Yes, last week I met a strange man with a buzz cut near my home. He said I had a Zen-like quality and wanted to be my guide.”
Cold Blade Aura suddenly becomes fierce, Killing Intent surges forth.
Zhang Chongba asked thoughtfully, “Bro, did that guy slip you anything?”

On a side note, I’ll be changing “【 Supreme True Buddha Sect 】” to “【 Supreme True Buddha Sect 】” in the next couple of days. Since it’s an urban setting, I want to avoid anything like cults. Best regards to all my readers!
