Chapter 298: A Guest Arrives at Yuanqing
A hairpin was handed to Lingxiang. It looked no different from the previous one. If there was no difference, it might be that the silver of the hairpin was brighter than before.
Long Qi was very curious. Could it be that Lingxiang came to Linxiang specifically to repair the jewelry? However, the jewelry was just stolen from Su Tong and it didn't look very valuable. If she liked it, wouldn't it be better for him to polish it? It would save him from asking others for help.
Lingxiang looked at the hairpin in her hand carefully from beginning to end, and it was indeed more exquisite than before. Just as she was about to put the hairpin on her head, Yue Niang held her back.
The two looked at each other but didn't say anything. Seeing Lingxiang's determined face, Yue Niang could only sigh.
She couldn't be stopped, there was nothing she could do. This child had the same personality as Tumi, and once they made up their minds, they would never look back.
Lingxiang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know my limits." Then she inserted the hairpin into her bun.
The two of them were indeed a bit strange. To Banxia, it seemed that they were chanting some incantations. When she was about to ask, she heard a child's loud shout.
"Master!"
A small ball of flesh jumped out from behind Yue Niang and threw itself into Ling Xiang's arms.
It’s Adao!
However, this time, Adao no longer had the animal ears and tail he had before. He was wearing fluffy clothes and a small bun, looking like a complete child.
Seeing him become like this, Lingxiang was filled with joy. She hugged him and ravaged him for a long time, until his chubby little face was deformed.
This really pissed off Long Qi, who hurried forward and lifted up A Dao: "Now that you have transformed into a demon, you should be more cautious. Have you forgotten what I told you before?"
Ah Dao looked unhappy. Master Lingxiang didn't say anything, but Long Qi insisted on meddling in other people's business. It was really a bummer!
While Ah Dao and Long Qi were playing with each other, Ling Xiang asked Xiang Yue Niang curiously, "How did you make Ah Dao transform into a human?"
According to Lingxiang's thoughts, it was because Yunmeng Lake was full of spiritual energy and Adao was worried about his own safety, so he forced himself to transform, which led to the demon root later. I thought that since Yue Niang was a great demon, she would definitely know how to save Adao, but I didn't expect that she would actually help him transform.
"Since the order is wrong, we will fill in the gaps where there are mistakes." Yue Niang fanned herself very deliberately and said with a smug look on her face, "We, the demon race, are different from you humans. We don't have so many troubles of following procedures. As long as the final result is satisfactory, the process is not important." After saying that, she looked at Cheng Xin Zhenren in the distance provocatively.
Zhenren Chengxin seemed to sense Yue Niang's provocation. He just snorted coldly, flicked his wide sleeves, and turned his back.
This little Taoist priest is really interesting, very interesting!
As Yue Niang retracted her gaze, she saw Ling Xiang bowing: "Today, Yue Niang has been very kind to me for helping me. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely bring you a generous gift to thank you."
What are you thanking me for? And you need to bring a valuable gift?
Long Qi was confused by what he heard, but he saw Yue Niang helping Ling Xiang up, but the expression on her face was extremely arrogant.
"Alright, alright, your gift is nothing more than some pills and elixirs," he said, pulling out a pouch from his bosom, which contained the seven treasures and incense pills. "For me, just this one is enough."
"Go! Be careful."
Lingxiang nodded, then turned and left with everyone else, leaving Yue Niang alone standing there.
Tumi, oh Tumi, if you are still alive in heaven, please bless her!
Except for Master Chengxin, everyone in the group was talking and laughing, playing and joking. In just three or four days, they arrived at the foot of Jiuque Mountain.
A boy at the mountain gate had already seen the group of people approaching from afar, and someone hurried up the mountain to report to Taoist Qianyuan.
It was not until they reached the sect gate that Banxia remembered that her master Chengxin had great cultivation ability. So why didn't he lead them on his sword but instead walked back to Yuanqing step by step?
Since I can't figure it out, I have to ask.
Hearing this, Lingxiang smiled and said, "Of course your uncle Chengxin can take me to fly a sword, but it's different for you. You inner disciples have been ordered to go down the mountain for training. Since it is training, you have to abide by the rules of the world. Flying a sword at every turn, how can that be considered training?" So that's how it is. Banxia slapped his head and suddenly realized it. He was about to say something else, but saw the gatekeeper boy hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
"Third Elder, Little Nun, please hurry up the mountain. There are guests on the mountain, and they have been waiting for two or three days."
This made Lingxiang curious. Could it be that this guest had some background?
"It's just a visitor, why are you so flustered? There are always pilgrims coming to Banshan Temple, and I've never seen you act so solemnly."
The little Taoist boy was a little anxious. He scratched his head and hesitated for a long time, but he couldn't make any sense.
This was not his fault. After all, he was just a gatekeeper boy. In name, he was only an outer disciple. He was not even worthy of being called uncle or aunt. He could only be called elder. It was just that Lingxiang had a special status, so everyone in the sect called her "little aunt".
"I don't really understand, I just heard that it was from a certain sect, and there were so many people coming. The head elder specifically told me that if the two elders come back, he will urge you to go up the mountain to meet the guests."
Wow! So many people came? What kind of sect are they from? Are they here to cause trouble?
Lingxiang suddenly became interested and no longer cared about Chengxin Zhenren behind her, and she jumped up the mountain.
There's something exciting to watch, so why don't you hurry up?
Looking at Lingxiang who was jumping with every step, Zhenren Chengxin smiled helplessly.
He thought Lingxiang would be sad for some days while the master was going through the tribulation and ascending to heaven, but he didn't expect that she was still like this, so heartless. He had been worried about her for so many days, but it turned out that he was overthinking.
Never mind, it’s fine this way. Their little junior sister should be so carefree, right?
Zhenren Chengxin shook his head, told Long Qi to quickly catch up with Lingxiang, and gave Liu Xia and Banxia a few words. Then he made a hand gesture and disappeared with a trick of escape.
Lingxiang had never been through physical training, and her legs were injured. She groaned and crawled for a long time before she finally reached the mountainside temple. As soon as she entered the mountain, she sighed - home is still the best place! As the saying goes, a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse. This saying is indeed true.
It is called the Half-Mountain Temple, but in fact it is not even halfway up the mountain. It is named so only to cater to the pilgrims from the world. Otherwise, wouldn’t those pilgrims be exhausted to death just to burn incense and fulfill their wishes?
Lingxiang really couldn't climb anymore, and she was breathing heavily while holding onto a stone pillar. At this moment, a man walked out of the temple, and it was Shoucheng.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. It seems that your kicking skills have regressed!" Shoucheng said with a smile.
Lingxiang rolled her eyes at him but didn't answer.
She couldn't even take a break, so how could she have time to argue with this boy?
Shoucheng smiled broadly when he saw this - is this still the flamboyant little nun who ran to his dormitory in the middle of the night?
Forget it, forget it. I still have my master’s orders to obey and I can’t delay any further.
"I have been waiting here for a long time. Third Uncle-Master ordered me to take Little Nun to the meeting hall."
Yes! Shoucheng is good at earth escape, so this saves a lot of effort.
Fang put his hand on Shoucheng's shoulder, but felt something was wrong. At the moment when Shoucheng cast the spell, Lingxiang remembered that her third senior brother also knew the art of escape.
Lingxiang was about to complain when a gust of sand was blown up and the two people disappeared. At this moment, Long Qi arrived and was stunned when he saw the two people disappearing.
This this……
And what about him! What about him?
