Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 247 Choice
When Lin Ji returned to Yucheng, it was already evening.

He went directly to the government office and found Tian Guosheng.

Just as Tian Guosheng was finishing his meal, he had three or two side dishes and a bowl of porridge.

Tian Guosheng was a little surprised at Lin Ji's speed, and after inviting him to sit down, he asked, "You're back so soon? How are things going?"

"I went to Nanmo County, and I also went to Xingye Temple."

"Have you slaughtered all the bald donkeys in Xingye Temple?" Tian Guosheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"No, dozens of them were killed, but a pair of children were saved."

Tian Guosheng nodded noncommittally, and asked again: "Where is the abbot of Xingye Temple?"

"The bald donkey in the temple said that the abbot is not here, and I didn't bother to look for it." Lin Ji stood up and bowed slightly, "It's the lower officials who are not doing their job well, if you want to punish him."

Before Lin Ji could say anything, Tian Guosheng waved his hands again and again, got up and pushed Lin Ji to sit down.

"There's nothing to punish. It's Tu Si, and you can make a fuss. Do you want to eat together?"

"No need, I'll eat again when I go back to the Lin Mansion." Lin Ji shook his head and refused.

When he left yesterday, he still remembered his mother calling Xiaohua to the kitchen to prepare a family dinner.

That being the case, even if it is sudden to go back now, it is good for the family to have a light meal.

There's no reason why my parents are in Yucheng, and they still eat at Tian Guosheng's place.

"That's true. I heard about you from Gao Ling. I didn't expect you to be brother Yuxuan's own son. It's such a coincidence." Tian Guosheng saw what Lin Ji was thinking.

"Since you're in a hurry to go back, I won't keep you. Now that you've looked at the situation in Victoria, you should understand why Jian Tiansi is struggling in Victoria, and why Tantric Buddhism is rampant in Victoria."

Hearing this, Lin Ji sighed.

"Hey, the poison of Tantric Buddhism is deeply rooted. Even if Tantric Buddhism is destroyed, at least it will take decades for Victoria to recover." Lin Ji rubbed his face.

He also thought of the people in Nanmo County, those people who considered themselves pigs and compared monks to gods.

"The imperial court will soon take action against the Tantric sect. The Tantric sect is also very clear about this matter. They are the ones who provoked it first." Tian Guosheng picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, chewing and said: "The Tantric sect is not a minister. Everyone knows it, but they've crossed the line during this time."

"Out of bounds?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows slightly.

"They want to merge Victoria into the Buddhist kingdom. This matter is not only a matter of the imperial court, but also a matter of the nine states in the Central Plains."

Lin Ji took a deep look at Tian Guosheng.

This is too outrageous.

Zongmen monks can say it, aristocratic family members can say it, but the town official who is the supervisor of Tiansi can't.

The Kyushu in the Central Plains is the imperial court and should not be discussed separately.

Of course, this is just a superficial statement, and Lin Ji actually doesn't think so.

But he never resorted to similar statements, so as not to be used as a handle.

After all, he still has to be in the Supervising Division.

As for what Tian Guosheng said, Lin Ji pretended that he had never heard of it, but he kept his mind on it.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Tian Guosheng's position does not seem to be as firm as imagined.

Tian Guosheng didn't seem to realize his gaffe, but instead patted Lin Ji's arm.

"Weizhou will soon have countless contributions. If you want to climb up in Tianjiansi, you can't miss this time anyway. Lin Ji, Mr. Fang appreciates you very much, don't let him down."

"Your Majesty will do his best."

Tian Guosheng nodded and said with a smile: "I will stay with my parents in Yucheng during this time. If there is anything else, I will come to you again."

"Farewell sir."

……

When Lin Ji returned to the Lin Mansion, the whole family happened to be having dinner.

Seeing Lin Ji's return, his mother Chen Mei was pleasantly surprised and pulled him to sit down quickly, and ordered the servants to add more food.

"Ji'er, didn't you get hurt this time?" Lin Yuxuan sat on the main seat and asked with concern.

"It's just a little thing, please worry about it, Dad."

"Don't be so polite." Lin Yuxuan shook his head impatiently, "I'm your own father, what should I do with such a birthright?"

Lin Ji nodded helplessly.

"Yes."

At dinner, the atmosphere became a little awkward because of Lin Ji's joining.

Both Lin Yuxuan and Chen Mei were greeting Lin Ji, but Lin Ji's response seemed a bit reserved.

This atmosphere also made Lin Ji a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Lin Chun still had to torture his body after dinner, so Lin Ji used this excuse to leave the restaurant with Lin Chun.

Xiao Hua also came out, leading Lin Ji to an independent small courtyard.

"Master, this is your house." Xiao Hua pushed open the courtyard door.

"Thank you." Lin Ji nodded.

Lin Chun also followed, and began to practice in Lin Ji's small courtyard, while Lin Ji watched quietly from the side.

At this time, Lin Chun's body hadn't fully grown yet, and most of his exercises were physical exercises to activate muscles and bones.

Although Lin Ji didn't understand these things, with his state of mind, he only needed to look at them to know that Lin Chun's movements were exercising those areas, and then corrected them.

"Raise your legs higher."

"Straighten your arm without breaking it!"

"Shaking what shaking? Stand still!"

Lin Ji scolded him one after another, ever since he knew that Lin Chun was his own younger brother, Lin Ji became subconsciously strict.

It is impossible to joke.

You have to let him know the truth that an elder brother is like a father.

After practicing for more than an hour, seeing that Lin Chun was approaching his limit, Lin Ji let him rest.

Lin Chun breathed a sigh of relief and sat next to Lin Ji.

"Big brother." He called "big brother" with some reluctance.

"What's the matter?" Lin Ji looked at the moon in the sky and asked casually.

"You look like your parents... like"

"A bit unfamiliar? I haven't seen you for five years, of course you are unfamiliar." Lin Ji could only prevaricate like this. After he traveled through time, he hadn't been with the parents of his predecessor for long. Maybe he could understand their parents' love for him. , but he couldn't give birth to that kind of affection from the heart.

"It's not just unfamiliarity, I feel as if you are forced to stay at home. There is no reason to feel this way." Lin Chun shook his head. He couldn't express his feelings clearly, so he could only express them reluctantly.

Lin Ji understood what he meant.

He looked down at Lin Chun.

"Do you know what I did yesterday?"

"do not know."

"I went to kill people, killing bald donkeys."

Lin Chun's eyes widened suddenly.

Lin Ji continued: "My goal is to be the abbot of the fifth realm. Kid, do you think your teacher is powerful?"

"Of course the teacher is amazing."

"The bald donkey I'm looking for can kill your teacher with a single slap." Lin Ji said with a bad taste.

Although I'm sorry for Gao Ling, a few words will destroy his image in Lin Chun's heart.

But it is always necessary to find a comparison so that Lin Chun can understand.

Seeing the panic on Lin Chun's face, Lin Ji stroked his hair which was not thick.

"This is what Jian Tiansi wants to do. I am better than your teacher, so I have the same level of trouble waiting. Maybe someday I will be cold."

Lin Ji put his hand on Lin Chun's shoulder.

"This"

Lin Ji patted Lin Chun on the shoulder, let him go, put his hands behind his head, and half-lyed down on the back of the chair.

"I thought I would let them start a small business and live a stable life, but I didn't expect that they not only gave birth to you in Yucheng, but also you, a brat, embarked on the road of cultivation. This is actually the opposite of what I planned at the beginning. gone."

"You should study hard. Wouldn't it be great to inherit our Lin family's property in the future? Do you have to go to the Tiansi prison? At that time, my parents will be worried about us brothers every day."

Lin Chun didn't answer. After a while, he walked up to Lin Ji and said seriously:
"Brother, I think your worries are unnecessary. Father and mother have experienced more wind and rain than you. I also heard them often talk about the hardships they suffered before. Father and mother are not as fragile as you imagined."

"Really?" Lin Ji was a little stunned, "What else do you want to say?"

"What's more, parents, including me, have the right to choose their own path. You can't choose for us, just like we can't choose for you!"

After speaking, Lin Chun turned and left.

But Lin Ji was a little dazed.
