The Great Tang Dynasty: Heavenly Official Bestows Blessings, Starting with a Little Rhinoceros Offer

Chapter 23 Little Sizi: Master Hu is me!

Then, Jiang Lin looked out the window.

"Now that your son has recovered, he is still somewhat weak and needs to rest."

"I'll stay here with you for now."

"We're going out now."

Having said that, he picked up the little Sizi who was still watching the commotion in his arms, turned around, and prepared to leave.

Leave this warm space to the family who suffered the loss.

However, as Jiang Lin turned to walk towards the door...

He then realized that all the monsters that had been following behind him were now lying on the ground.

They huddled together, looking as if they had been greatly frightened.

Jiang Lin raised an eyebrow slightly and said in a calm tone.

"Get up, everyone."

"Don't block the way here, and don't disturb people's rest."

Upon hearing Jiang Lin's words, the monsters felt as if they had been granted a pardon.

One by one, they responded in trembling voices, all speaking in unison.

"I will obey the True Lord's decree!"

Only after that did they dare to tremble and get up from the ground.

She followed Jiang Lin without daring to breathe and obediently walked out.

The group returned to the courtyard, and Jiang Lin stopped.

He turned around and looked at the humanoid monsters in front of him.

His gaze was calm, yet it seemed to see through everything.

"Actually, I saw it too."

"The reason you want to marry your daughter to this family."

"It's not simply about repaying a debt of gratitude."

Jiang Lin's tone was calm, but it hit the nail on the head.

"Although this family are ordinary people, their ancestors accumulated good deeds, and this child's fate is quite special."

"You want to use the marriage between our two families so that your daughter can cultivate herself by borrowing this child's yang energy and good fortune."

"Am I right or wrong, what I said?"

With a thud, the old man, Hu San, was instantly terrified.

Her little secret, which she had wanted to keep hidden, was exposed in public, and she was immediately filled with shame.

He immediately knelt down again, banging his head against the ground repeatedly.

"Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is wise!"

"Although I harbored the selfish intention of letting my daughter cultivate by borrowing the fortune of others..."

"

"But it's mainly to repay a debt of gratitude!"

"If we don't save them, they really will die!"

"I have absolutely no intention of harming anyone!"

The young girl Mei'er beside him was also terrified, kneeling beside her grandfather and sobbing softly.

Jiang Lin looked at the old man and the young man and smiled faintly.

Get up.

"If I wanted to punish you, I wouldn't have held back just now."

"I just wanted to warn you."

"Species are different, and this practice of using mortals to cultivate oneself goes against the natural order."

"If you force it, you will surely be punished by heaven."

"You are not allowed to harass this family again."

"Let's all go back to the deep mountains and devote ourselves to cultivation."

The old man and his companions nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"Thank you for your guidance, True Lord!"

"We will certainly remember this!"

Having witnessed how terrifying this person was, they no longer dared to plot against this family.

Then, the spirits paused for a moment.

They exchanged glances, as if they had made some important decision.

Ultimately, it was the white snake woman who transformed into a woman wearing a cheongsam.

Mustering his courage, he tentatively asked.

"True Lord, um..."

"We little demons have been trying to cultivate on our own in the deep mountains, but we have never been able to find the right method."

"After all this arduous cultivation, I've only managed to gain a slight spiritual understanding."

"Now I am fortunate to meet the True Lord."

"We want to follow behind the True Lord and serve him."

"Even if it's just serving tea and water, or guarding the house, we're willing to do it!"

Jiang Lin was stunned for a moment, not expecting this group of guys.

After scaring myself, I actually had this thought.

However, Jiang Lin immediately shook his head.

"No need."

"This humble Taoist prefers tranquility."

"My apprentice and I live in a Taoist temple, and there aren't many trivial matters to deal with on a daily basis."

"There's no need for any servants."

The main reason is that Little Sizi is here. He usually needs to travel through time and space, so it's impossible for him to take in outsiders!

At this moment, the old man Hu San, seeing this, seemed still unwilling to give up.

His eyes lit up, and he came up with another idea. He quickly pushed his granddaughter Mei'er out from beside him.

"My Lord, what about this little fairy?"

"I see that the fairy is so young now, and there is no one to take care of her."

""

"How about... my granddaughter, Mei'er, serves the fairy?"

"Although Mei'er's magical powers are weak, she is quick and efficient and can perform magic tricks to make people happy."

"Being a personal maid to the little fairy would be perfect!"

The young girl, Mei'er, was also extremely clever and immediately raised her head.

She put on a pitiful, obedient, and submissive appearance.

She smiled sweetly at the little boy in Jiang Lin's arms.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin looked down at the little one in his arms.

"Mingda".

"What do you think?"

After hearing this, the little guy tilted his head.

She glanced at the beautiful fox sister, then at the spirits kneeling on the ground.

Suddenly, she seemed to realize something.

Are these spirits going to follow their master?

Do I still have to take care of myself?

Does that mean... I'll have to live with my master from now on?

Will Master still only hug me?

Would Master still only buy delicious food for himself?

Alarm bells immediately rang in the little guy's mind.

She suddenly turned around and hugged Jiang Lin's neck tightly with both small hands.

She clung to Jiang Lin like a little tiger guarding its food, shouting excitedly.

"don't want!"

"No, little rhinoceros!"

"It's me, Shi Hu!"

"I don't want anyone else stealing my thunder!"

Jiang Lin couldn't help but chuckle at his nervous little face.

He then reached out and gently patted the little guy's back to comfort him.

Then he raised his head and looked at the group of spirits with expectant faces.

"You saw it too."

"My disciple doesn't need any maids."

"You'd better leave quickly."

"Stop arguing."

Upon hearing this, the group of spirits and monsters immediately showed expressions of utter disappointment.

Especially the young girl, Mei'er, whose eyes dimmed instantly.

But there was nothing they could do; the True Lord had spoken, and they dared not disobey.

He could only bow deeply to Jiang Lin once again.

"In that case... then I won't disturb you any longer, True Lord."

"We'll take our leave now."

After saying this, the group of spirits could only turn and leave dejectedly.

He looked back every few steps, reluctantly walking out the door.

After the monsters had gone quite a distance, the gray rat spirit, who had transformed into a fat man, timidly approached the old man.

He lowered his voice and said with lingering fear.

"Old Hu..."

"You...you must have sensed it too, right?"

The old man nodded solemnly, and the gray rat spirit swallowed hard, its voice trembling as it spoke.

"When that person was casting the spell just now..."

"That overwhelming pressure!"

"But the Emperor..."

However, the moment the word "emperor" was uttered...

The gray rat spirit seemed to sense some great terror.

His entire body of fat shuddered violently, and his face instantly turned ashen.

It was as if an invisible hand had gripped his throat, and he dared not utter another word.

Upon seeing this, the old man's expression changed drastically.

He quickly raised his finger, making a shushing gesture.

"Sh-!"

"Be careful what you say!"

"There are some names that you can't just call people by!"

Upon hearing this, all the spirits shrank back in fear.

After a moment of silence, the old man looked back at the direction of the villa and sighed heavily.

"well..."

"It's a pity that Mei'er didn't win the favor of that little fairy."

"If I could stay there... what a wonderful opportunity that would be."

After hearing this, his companions also let out a long sigh.

"yes."

"When one attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."

"It's just a pity..."

"We're not fortunate enough to have that blessing!"
