Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 160 Blending in
(The previous chapter was sanctioned by the river crab master == It took a long time to revise it before it was released, sigh)
Fairy Hongxia finally left...

Before leaving, he gave it to Hua Xiaodie.

He said that if he couldn't eat the hook, his apprentice couldn't eat it either.

Hua Xiaodie's huge eyes looked at the forest with watery eyes, and she was taken away in a ferocious manner.

"Finally gone..." Lin Jian sighed after surviving the disaster.

Turning to look at the innocent-looking Haruyuki, he was furious. "You're just going to watch me get bullied?"

"Why not?" Haruyuki blinked. "Who knows if you're enjoying it? I know some men say no, but they really want it..."

After a pause, as if remembering his character, he added, "And what can I do? You are all masters of the Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul stages, and I am the only one... a weak, pitiful, and helpless mortal. Sob~"

Lin Jian's voice became hard when he heard it. Of course, the bigger reason was that the strange fragrance emanating from Fairy Hongxia lingered in the room for a long time.

Now, seeing Haruyuki lying at the foot of the bed, acting like he was easy to bully and making some strange noises, he was furious. "What are you doing with all those noises?"

Haruyuki pressed her eye bags and looked up, pleading, "I don't know either, ahhhh~"

"No more sleep!"

Damn it!
He stood up from the forest and summoned the flying sword with a gesture of his finger.

"I fucking kill, kill, kill, kill!"

……

In the early morning, I waited in the woods for a while, but the imperial teacher did not arrive.

He became even more certain that the Imperial Master was hiding something, so he headed towards the restaurant where he had agreed to meet yesterday.

The copper smelter and the sweeper had been waiting obediently for a long time.

"Let's go."

The copper refiner's eyes widened when he saw another woman behind Lin Jian. "I, I, I, I... What the hell? Hong Hong Hong Hong... Fairy Hongxia?!"

The one sweeping the floor was also stunned, "Oh my god, fairy!"

Fairy Hongxia lowered her eyebrows and smiled shyly, half of her body hidden behind the woods, and she actually looked a bit like an eighteen-year-old girl.

"If you look at me again, I'll dig out your eyes!" Lin Jian kicked him on the butt, "Hurry and lead the way."

The two men stood still, turned around, and led the way with their bodies straight.

After taking two steps, the man sweeping the floor suddenly turned back with a distressed look on his face, "Uncle, I'm not saying this... We're sneaking in, not on a spring outing. With your family here... things won't be easy."

Lin Jian mused, "Yeah...that's right."

The man sweeping the floor smiled flatteringly, "Master, if you need help, just come with me. They...will just stay here and wait for you to come back, right?"

"Okay." Lin Jian agreed happily.

……

Walking on the way into the mountain, Liantong stared at the woods with admiration.

"Master, you are the real immortal!"

"Ok?"

"What's wrong with me to believe those old monks who haven't even left the mountains? I don't know how to worship the real immortals right in front of me... Can you teach me where to get all these peerless beauties?"

The man sweeping the floor echoed, "And judging by your taste, the mortal maid beside you is no ordinary one, right? Is she using some kind of deception because she's so beautiful?"

Lin Jian's heart moved. "What do you think she looks like?" "Hmm... She's dressed in gray, not very conspicuous. But how could she be so frail as to be by my side?"

"Yeah yeah……"

"Specifically? What does it look like?"

"Specifically..." The copper refiner scratched his head. "How should I put it? She looks like a country girl... Hehe. But since she can stay by my side, she must not be like this now. Please don't make fun of us, Master."

Lin Jian frowned.

Knowing that he couldn't get to the bottom of it, he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he looked at the sweeper and asked, "How did you know I was going there to find out something?"

The man sweeping the floor also scratched his head and chuckled, "Sir, what are you saying? Look at the people around you... Your life is too good to be true. If you were to make a wish, no one in the world would be able to survive..."

'Too. '

Lin Jian nodded, confirming that he had no personal operational flaws.

The three of them followed the main road all the way up the mountain.

It was still the same road that the Imperial Master and he had walked on horseback through the forest, but compared to the quiet mountains back then, the mountain paths now had long been transformed by earth-based magic, becoming wider and neater.

A pile of hard gray-white stones forms the road for believers to go on pilgrimage.

Even on the renovated roads, there are still so many people that it's hard to miss.

But even in such an occasion where problems are extremely likely to occur, these pilgrims, like the most devout believers, actually went up the mountain silently with the crowded crowd, and there was no incident of crowding or oppression during the process.

Here you can even see practitioners and ordinary people crowded together, but they dare not step out of line and ask for any privileges.

The sweeper explained, "The masters of Mingguang Temple deeply hate those who rely on their status and cultivation to think they are superior. They severely punished a group of people in the beginning, and now no one will mess around."

After all, those who want to go up the mountain to worship are there to ask for something from others. What's the point of worshipping if they offend the local landlord?

The three people in the forest were squeezed in the crowd and endured it step by step.

Although...but...how long will this take?
"Don't worry, uncle. There's a small path ahead that's reserved for our staff. We'll be there soon."

Sure enough, when we arrived at an intersection, a narrow path was faintly visible among the many maple trees.

The sweeper led Lin Jian in headfirst, without causing any disturbance in the huge worshipping group.

The three of them hurried along the muddy mountain path.

Sure enough, under the guidance of the sweeper, the novice monk guarding the small door in the backyard let the three people in without asking any questions.

"I'm not bragging, but right here on this small piece of land, even the king of heaven can't hold a candle to me. I can bring anyone I want, but can that so-and-so Imperial Master do that? Those big bald guys here don't care about others, you know?"

The sweeper said this and went to a small room to change into special clothes. "Okay, now that I'm here, the rest has nothing to do with me. I'm going to sweep the floor now..."

"Where is the abbot?" Lin Jian finally pulled him aside and asked.

"He'll lead the way for you."

Following Lian Tong, the two of them went all the way from the side courtyard where no outsiders were allowed to the main hall.

As he walked, the copper smelter said, "The abbot is in a side hall called the Great Compassion Hall in the central courtyard of the temple. Usually, only the most sincere believers with a connection to Buddhism see it. There are two golden Buddha statues at the door, and those with a sincere connection to Buddhism can be illuminated by them."

"Only those who have passed the certification of the Golden Light Buddha Statue are qualified to go to the Great Compassion Hall to see the abbot." Lian Tongdi chuckled as he spoke, "I, a humble person, met the abbot yesterday."

Lin Jian didn't comment, "Lead the way."
