Chapter 173, Good Marriage Token

Thai city.

Although it has been several days since the Minions video was released, the popularity it caused has not diminished. Some self-media bloggers began to imitate it, resulting in many large and small Minions challenges.

Minions fluorescent powder challenge, Minions action challenge, Minions rhythm challenge, Minions eating challenge, Minions late night walking challenge...

Lu Yue had just gotten up that day and was browsing his phone while eating breakfast.

Until I saw a video in which a well-known film and television company’s account released a blockbuster news: “To my dear partners and media friends, the recent Minions incident is actually a brand new movie that our company has carefully prepared, which combines the supernatural, fantasy, romance, action, and science fiction…”

In just a short moment, this notice about the source information of the Minions incident from beginning to end became a hot topic, and then a large number of "extras" netizens confirmed this.

The company also attached some other Reuters photos, in which the images of the Minions were exactly the same as those in the video, with no signs of "PS" at all.

Seeing this, Lu Yue finally felt relieved. He had no intention of participating in the star-making plan proposed by the Demon Bureau of Taicheng Town, so after some deliberation, he came up with the current ending.

Although the popularity of the Minions has not diminished, at least the focus has shifted to the professional actor dressed as the Minions. For a time, the comment section of the actor's video account was flooded with comments.

Countless crazy girls were calling out brother's name.

This is the Internet environment, no one cares about the truth.

As long as it can satisfy the spiritual world of netizens.

Having said that, if he didn't have the system in his mind and had taken the same path as the ordinary supernatural beings in this world, perhaps entering the entertainment industry would have been a good choice. After all, with such tremendous popularity on him, he could just start a live broadcast and sell goods, and he would never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of his life.

However, it is said that the money of this live streaming business is made from family members. I don’t know if it is true or not. If it angers any family member or extraordinary person, it is possible that it will be confirmed now.

Essentially, this is the age of the paranormal resurgence.

Strength is the last word!
Lu Yue also sighed slightly and put the matter aside, because he just received a message from Taoist Lin saying that the special token was completed.

So Lu Yue immediately set out from the community.

He stopped a car and headed straight to Qingxu Taoist Temple.

As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Lu Yue saw a group of construction team members busy coming in and out. As he walked up the mountain step by step and entered the temple, he found that many dilapidated buildings in the Taoist temple were being repaired.

"Junior Brother Lu, this way!" Taoist Priest Lin shouted from a distance.

Following the sound, Lu Yue found Taoist Priest Lin who was leisurely drinking tea in the crowd. When he walked over, Taoist Priest Lin said, "Junior Brother Lu, I've seen your video. Your Minions image is so popular."

Lu Yue's eyelids twitched.

Taoist Priest Lin took out his phone and said, "There's a new Minion puzzle elimination game out now, called Yellow, and I'm stuck at the second level. Do you have a guide?"

Lu Yue: “…”

What a fucking puzzle game.

Lu Yue took a deep breath, calmed down, and quickly changed the subject to the construction team, "What are they doing?"

Taoist Priest Lin reluctantly put away his phone and asked seriously, "Junior Brother Lu, do you think our Qingxu Taoist Temple is a bit shabby?"

Lu Yue looked around and nodded truthfully.

After all, this Qingxu Taoist temple has been passed down for hundreds of years, so it is normal that some places are dilapidated. Basically, except for the main hall and some side halls where people live, other places are aging to varying degrees. Some areas even have no-entry signs to prevent pilgrims from getting injured.

"So, I'm thinking about renovating this Taoist temple to make it look more grand and not to tarnish the reputation of my Taoist sect. Not only will I be able to live comfortably in the future, but the temple may also become more popular..." Taoist Priest Lin talked endlessly about his plans for the future development of the Taoist temple.

Taoist Priest Lin plans to use part of the money he earned from the lightning-struck jujube forest to help the victims of supernatural events in various cities to accumulate blessings for himself, another part to build a Taoist temple, and the remaining part to be used for health preservation and spiritual practice.

Taoism emphasizes the Tao and virtue. To become an immortal, one must practice Taoism and accumulate virtue.

To accumulate virtue means to practice benevolence, righteousness, and morality, and to help others. Taoism calls this "practice", and the entire process of cultivation is called "merit". Only when merit and practice are complete can one become an immortal. This is the meaning of the Taoist saying "three thousand merits are fulfilled, eight hundred practices are complete".

Lu Yue fully agreed with this.

There was even a proposal to build an elevator to make it easier for pilgrims to go up and down the mountain.

"Junior Brother Lu, is this really possible?" Taoist Lin's eyes lit up.

Lu Yue nodded.

What's wrong with that?
First, the Taoist temple is not his. Second, it did not cost him any money to build it. Third, he can take the elevator up later.

After hearing Lu Yue's reply, Master Lin's mouth twitched.

"By the way, why didn't I see Master Fang?" Lu Yue suddenly asked.

"Junior Brother Fang has been in this Taoist temple for thirty years. This is the first time he has left Taicheng since the Gongshu branch incident. However, now that he has come out, there is no possibility of retreating. It is time to settle some old accounts." Taoist Lin's expression suddenly became serious.

Lu Yue looked surprised.

But I think with Master Fang's strength, nothing should happen. Then, the two returned to the topic and talked about business. Master Lin pulled Lu Yue to the side, took out a token from his arms, and said solemnly: "Junior Brother Lu, this is a token I made for you personally, made of authentic lightning-struck wood, you must carry it with you."

Lu Yue took the token and looked at it. There were obscure runes engraved on the front, and two children were carved on the back. They were holding lotus leaves and treasure boxes, and stepping on banana leaves and brooms, which looked lifelike.

"What token is this?"

"Junior Brother Lu, I see that you are young and promising but still single, and you need to find a partner. As the saying goes, love is made in heaven. This is a good match token that can increase your popularity with the opposite sex and gain their favor. It is very suitable for single people who are not proactive." Taoist Lin explained with a smile.

Lu Yue: “…”

After all this time, it turns out to be like this.

He thought it was some very powerful token.

"No, I've only heard of good marriage talismans and marriage incense, but I've never heard of a token with this kind of effect." Lu Yue checked on the Internet.

"What's circulating on the Internet are things that are well-known to the public. The real good things are never made public. Talisman paper and incense are disposable and not easy to preserve. Whether they work or not, they'll be gone after they're used. But this token is different. As long as you carry it with you and nurture it day and night, the effect will naturally get better and better..." Taoist Lin talked endlessly about the benefits of the token.

Just at this time, a well-dressed woman in her thirties wearing a cheongsam walked into the main hall and prayed devoutly to the Three Pure Ones to bless her to meet a good man. She didn't need things like gifts, dowries, and houses.

"Junior Brother Lu, see, I didn't lie to you. Your marriage partner has arrived. Although he is a little older, he still looks good. Go quickly, seize the opportunity, and be energetic!" Taoist Lin urged.

Lu Yue: “…”

"Have you ever heard the saying, 'A flag in the wind, a fish in the waves, a girl of seventeen or eighteen, and a donkey in a grass nest, these are the four great joys.'"

Taoist Lin looked confused, obviously not understanding the meaning of this sentence.

"Then let me ask you another question. Cats can meow, dogs can woof, ducks can quack, so chickens can do what?" Lu Yue asked again.

Taoist Lin scratched his head and cheeks, still not understanding what Lu Yue meant.

Lu Yue pointed forward and said, "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared."

Just as he finished speaking, a young pilgrim suddenly rushed out with flowers in his hands and said a little reservedly: "No. 66, I have liked you for a long time. Every time I go to Xiangyuan Foot Massage, I order you. You should understand my feelings. Can you marry me..."

The pilgrims around gasped.

This guy is so brave!!!
In the Sanqing Temple, which was originally full of sacred atmosphere, a scene of a brave young man proposing to a technician was staged. Taoist Lin was so angry that he ordered people to kick the two out on the spot.

Lu Yue also took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave. As for the good marriage token...it was only the size of a palm and didn't take up much space, so he just put it in his pocket. After all, it was made of lightning-struck wood.

In case I become poor in the future, I can still sell it for some money.

After leaving Qingxu Taoist Temple, it was already evening. Lu Yue suddenly had an idea. He wanted to see Zhang Yaling at work, so he took out his mobile phone, checked her recent updates, got her address, and immediately took another bus.

This is a well-known fast food restaurant chain.

Through the kitchen door curtain, Lu Yue saw Zhang Yaling washing dishes.

Others wash plates, but Zhang Yaling plays art. The plates in her hands are as smooth as a juggler's performance. Not only that, Zhang Yaling also has multiple jobs. She picks up plates from time to time, shuttles between customers, and plays the role of a waiter.

As far as Lu Yue knew, since Zhang Yaling did not have an ID card, she could only work part-time in these stores, helping out in whichever store was busy.

There is no social security, but meals are provided and you can earn twenty yuan an hour.

It seems that Zhang Yaling's life is gradually getting better.

Since he was already here, Lu Yue might as well have dinner in the store.

He casually ordered a spicy chicken leg burger and a portion of black pepper chicken nuggets. Soon after, Zhang Yaling, wearing work clothes, came over with a plate, put the food in front of Lu Yue, and blinked at him wildly.

Lu Yue was a little confused and didn't understand what this meant.

However, when he opened the hamburger box, he was stunned!
One, two, three, four, five...

There are five spicy chicken legs in one burger!!!

Even more terrifying is the black pepper chicken nuggets.

I clearly ordered one portion, but it contained twice as much chicken nuggets.

Could it be that today is Crazy Thursday and the volume is greater than usual?
However, when Lu Yue looked up at Zhang Yaling, he saw Zhang Yaling turning sideways and making an OK gesture, and all the mysteries were instantly revealed.

Could it be that Zhang Yaling is the legendary McNugget Chicken Leg Man? ! ! ! !

Just as Lu Yue was eating the extra meal provided by Zhang Yaling, his cell phone rang. It was a message from Captain Liu.

"We found the Furukawa Village!"
