This man is in his fifties and is Zhang Bufan's younger brother, Zhang Bukong.

Nightingale asked in confusion: "Uncle Bukong, why are you here?"

According to seniority, Nightingale did call Zhang Bukong to call him Uncle Master.

Since he is Zhang Bufan's younger brother, Zhang Bukong's status in the entire Cuisine Mountain is extremely high and he is definitely the second-ranked person.

This person's kung fu is also quite good. Although he will not reach the level of Zhang Bufan's superb level, all the brothers of the Nightingale's generation may not be able to beat him. Moreover, compared with Zhang Bufan who is determined to practice hard, Zhang Bukong seems to be more concerned about.

He is the head of Cuisongshan Precepts Hall and is in charge of the punishment of the entire sect. Over the years, Zhang Bufan has focused almost all his attention on asceticism and wants to seek greater breakthroughs in his lifetime. Therefore, the management of the entire sect was handed over to Zhang Bukong.

Although Zhang Bukong did not do everything himself, he is undoubtedly in power now.

A sect also has a microcosm of society. Although the world and temples are different, people's hearts are not too different. Since ancient times, the two words "man and ambition" have been inseparable. There are few men who can completely be obsessed with the pastoral world. Therefore, Cuisine Mountain is no exception.

Now that Zhang Bukong is in power, he naturally becomes a transcendent existence in the sect. While improving his martial arts skills, those disciples in the sect also begin to curry favor with Zhang Bukong openly and secretly.

Zhang Bukong is different from his brother. You should know that if Zhang Bufan personally managed the sect in the past, he would be ruthless to anyone who wanted to curry favor with him. Zhang Bufan only believed in his own vision and judgment, and hated those who flattered and servile. Under Lao Zhang, if he did not give gifts, he might have a bright future. But if he dared to show a slight idea of ​​currying favor with Zhang Bufan, then this person would be completely thrown into the cold palace, and at least he would have to fall into a chore room and do some work of sprinkling water and sweeping the floor.

From this point of view, Zhang Bufan really has to convince. Although Su Rui was quite disliked by this old Taoist priest, he also had many shining points.

As for why such a big contradiction arises—it is all caused by different positions.

The direction your butt is heading determines your thoughts.

Su Rui and Zhang Bufan's different positions led to a huge conflict in ideas. Over time, this conflict quickly developed to an irreconcilable level.

Zhang Bukong, who is in his fifties, looks a little fatter than Zhang Bufan, and also has a flat head, instead of the most classic Taoist bun in China.

This hairstyle makes him look more energetic. His Taoist robe seems to be ironed, very neat, without a single wrinkle.

Although Zhang Bukong has great power, his reputation in the entire gang is not bad. Although he does not hate some flattery behaviors in the sect like his brother Zhang Bufan, he is not too ostentatious. The atmosphere in Cuisine Mountain is still thriving.

It is not easy for Zhang Bukong to take charge of such a huge sect. He also has several personal disciples. In the past few years, Zhang Bukong has asked these disciples to be responsible for specific management affairs, and only when encountering general problems will he ask him to come forward to solve them.

From this point of view, we can see that Zhang Bukong's IQ is definitely not low. While delegating power, there has not been any chaos in the sect, which is not easy.

Although Nightingale called Uncle Master, she still had some complaints about Zhang Bukong in her heart.

For nothing else, the order she was "incarcerated for five years" was said by Zhang Bukong.

The Precepts Hall is in charge of the punishment of the entire sect, so even if Nightingale was confined, Zhang Bufan informed Zhang Bukong. Therefore, before the confined, Nightingale did not see his master.

Therefore, Nightingale could not have no complaints. If Zhang Bukong could help him plead for mercy, how could his master have to keep her for five years at once?

Several months have passed, and Zhang Bufan seems to have forgotten her, his proud disciple. Nightingale grew up in Cuisine Mountain and rarely saw such a serious punishment. Therefore, Nightingale was even more motivated and refused to bow her head to admit her mistake.

Nightingale did not wear her iconic leather jacket at this time, but a white slim long skirt. Although this long skirt is the standard style of the Cuisongshan School and does not have any fancy patterns, it has a flowing taste when worn on Nightingale.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that there are too few female disciples on Cuisong Mountain.

For the Nightingale, although it is a confinement, it is not limited to a small woodshed. She can "freely" move in this small area on the top of the mountain. Although someone will send food, she still has to do it herself in washing and other things.

Zhang Bukong saw the Nightingale, with a little majesty in his eyes: "How do you feel in the past few months?"

While speaking, he stood with his hands behind his back, facing the east, where a scorching sun broke through the morning mist and was slowly rising.

Nightingale stood behind Zhang Bukong and said lightly: "This period of time has been a rare and peaceful day."

Zhang Bukong turned around and glanced at her: "It's over, are you still stubborn?"

"Uncle Master, I'm not stubborn." Nightingale said: "I don't think I'm doing something wrong."

"Nothing!"

Zhang Bukong shook his sleeves: "Do you know what you are saying? If your master hears this, he may punish you for another five years!"

"If you punish me, then I will punish you, so what." Nightingale's tone couldn't help but feel a little bit worse: "Since we were kids, Master has taught us that everything should follow our hearts. Is there anything wrong with respecting my heart now?"

Zhang Bukong was very angry. He pointed at Nightingale's nose: "Did you use the principles your master taught you at this time?"

"So what? The truth is the truth. If I apologize against my will, then it would be better to kill me!"

The Nightingale's words are so fierce.

"Kill you? I want to beat you to death now!"

Zhang Bukong's majesty on weekdays has completely transformed into anger: "Nightinging, do you know that with your words, I can lock you up for another five years! It's useless for anyone to say love, including your master!"

After hearing this, Nightingale was not afraid, but instead sneered: "Uncle Master, you are so majestic, but there are rules to follow in the punishment of disciples in the Precepts Hall. I wonder which one did I violate if you are going to keep me for another five years?"

After hearing Nightingale's words, Zhang Bukong's face became even more angry: "You dare to talk back?"

"Uncle Master, I'm really not talking back, I'm just talking back." Although Nightingale said this, her eyes showed everything - I'm talking back, what's wrong?

This time, her stubborn personality played a big role again, making Zhang Bukong almost crazy.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Zhang Bukong growled: "I can lock you up for the rest of my life with just one example! If your master knows that you dare to speak like this, then he will personally order the punishment without me saying it!"

"Punishment?" After hearing Zhang Bukong's words, Nightingale shook her head and sneered: "I'm really not afraid of punishment. I am such a person, it doesn't matter."

"Just bow your head and admit your mistake, I can let you leave here. Think about it, how simple is this!" Zhang Bukong seemed to have a sense of regret: "Why are you so unthinkable!"

"It's not that I can't think it through, but I've seen through it." Nightingale's voice was very cold: "Uncle Master, I hope you can understand me. Everything I did is not wrong."

"Your temper is the same as your senior sister! Do you want to follow her footsteps?" Zhang Bukong growled angrily.

"What does it mean?" After hearing the news about her sister, Nightingale was immediately excited. She couldn't even control herself and grabbed Zhang Bukong's sleeve!

"So disrespectful!" Looking at the Nightingale's movements, Zhang Bukong couldn't help but reprimand.

Nightingale quickly let go of her hand: "Uncle Master, can you tell me why my sister left Cuisine Mountain? Where is she now?"

"Why did she leave Cuisong Mountain? I can't tell you the reason for this for the time being, but what you must know is..." After pausing for a moment, Zhang Bukong continued: "If you continue to be obsessed with it, then you are not far from being expelled from the master!"

Nightingale was still excited: "Uncle Master, tell me quickly, where did my sister go?"

"Where did you go?" Zhang Bukong sneered: "I can't tell you, but it's not the time, and it depends on your performance."

Zhang Bukong's words undoubtedly gave Nightingale great hope!

"Uncle Master, how do you need me to show off?"

After asking this, Nightingale immediately felt that it was a little inappropriate.

Zhang Bukong's request was obviously to make her bow her head and admit her mistake, but Nightingale didn't think she had done something wrong, so this kind of apology was really impossible for her.

It is obviously very simple to put on others, but Nightingale doesn't want to be so vain!

"Uncle Master, if I asked me to bow my head and admit my mistake for the sake of the previous thing, then..." Nightingale shook her head: "I don't think I can do it."

The nightingale is the nightingale. She is indeed very principled. Even if she uses her sister’s news in exchange, she is unwilling to change her true heart.

In that case, she would think she had become another person, a person she hated.

This is definitely not the result that Nightingale wants to pursue.

Zhang Bukong put Nightingale in this situation in a simple sentence. Nightingale was not stupid. She could judge that Zhang Bukong did not have much kindness to see her this time, and it was even more impossible to release his pity.

"You, why are you so stubborn? Can't even nine-headed cows pull back the things you determine?" Zhang Bukong sighed and said, the anger just now had completely disappeared.

"If I bow my head and admit my mistake, I think it's impossible." Nightingale looked into his eyes: "I believe I will know the truth one day."

"You can promise me another condition." Zhang Bukong said lightly: "As long as you agree, what happened to your senior sister will not be repeated in you."
