Chapter 17 The Stubborn Master Departs
Chapter 17 The Stubborn Master Departs
Wang Shou only came to his senses at this moment, looking at Master Faming's appearance,
Although he was secretly amused, he was, after all, a seasoned veteran in the business world.
They still gave me some face on the surface:
"Yes, yes, thanks to... thanks to the two masters."
"snort."
Master Faming glanced at Lin Jinian, his tone less aggressive than before.
But it still carries a slightly sour taste:
"This humble monk is truly unwell today."
"A few days ago, a blessing ceremony was held for several esteemed benefactors."
"We expended too much energy, which allowed that ghost to take advantage of the situation and we were caught off guard."
As he spoke, he pretended to rub his temples.
He seemed to be saying, "I'm just not feeling well."
Then, Master Faming straightened his chest again.
Looking at Lin Jinian:
"However, young Taoist priest's lightning magic... is indeed quite skillful."
"But if my senior brother, who is in seclusion, were here, hehe,"
"This is just a small matter, a mere wave of the hand."
"This humble monk has other important matters to attend to today, so it is inconvenient for me to stay any longer."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jinian nodded slightly: "In that case..."
"Master, you should go back and recuperate as soon as possible, lest you damage your foundation."
This nonchalant attitude
This made Master Faming feel like he had punched cotton, leaving him feeling frustrated and uneasy.
He didn't wait for Wang Shou to try and persuade him to stay, although Wang Shou hadn't intended to either.
He didn't even pick up the vajra that had fallen to the ground, and instead took two young novices with him.
He slunk away quickly toward the gate, his retreating figure giving the impression of a hasty escape.
In the live stream, the viewers weren't so polite, and the chat was flooded with comments:
"That's hilarious! You're leaving already? You don't want the vajra anymore?"
"Isn't this just stubbornness? He was beaten to the point of vomiting blood and still says he's not in good shape?"
"Is it so hard to acknowledge someone's excellence? Master, your perspective is a bit narrow."
"They've even brought up their senior classmates. Are they going to say 'Don't leave after school' again? Are they still in elementary school?"
"To be fair, this master ran quite fast, and his legs didn't look injured."
After seeing Master Faming off, Wang Shou turned around.
The way they looked at Lin Jinian was as if he were a living god.
If the previous politeness was out of courtesy, now it is out of utter awe and reverence.
"Master Lin! You're a divine being! You truly are a divine being!"
Wang Shou rushed forward excitedly, tightly grasped Lin Jinian's hand, and his voice trembled:
"That golden light...that lightning...I've never seen such incredible power in my entire life!"
"Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I probably would be dead today!"
Without saying a word, he took out his phone: "We agreed before, if this is resolved, I'll give you 30,000."
"But today's situation... was too dangerous! And you saved all our lives!"
"Fifty thousand! I'm transferring fifty thousand to you! Please don't think it's too little!"
fifty thousand!
Lin Jinian's heart skipped a beat.
He originally thought 30,000 was a huge sum of money, but he never expected happiness to come so suddenly.
What can you do with 50,000 yuan?
They can completely repair that leaky side hall, renovate the surrounding walls... and even install broadband internet for the Taoist temple!
Although he was overjoyed inside, Lin Jinian maintained the composure of a wise man on the surface.
He nodded slightly, took out a pre-prepared bank card from his sleeve, and handed it over.
This was done by his master at the Lin'an Rural Credit Cooperative when Lin Jinian turned eighteen.
"Thank you for your generous donation."
"The yin energy in this house has been completely swept away by thunder and fire."
"The layperson only needs to open the windows more often for ventilation and get some sunshine, and he will be able to sleep soundly without worry."
"Okay, okay! I'll do whatever you say!"
At this time, Wang Shou listened to Lin Jinian's every word.
Then immediately proceed with the transfer.
Looking at the "transfer successful" screen on my phone,
Lin Jinian calmly took back the card, finally feeling a huge weight lifted from his heart.
Now, I don't have to worry about this winter.
After finishing his business, Lin Jinian's gaze fell on the girl next to him who was holding up her phone and had a strange expression.
Jiang Rongrong was in a state of extreme excitement at this moment.
on the one hand,
The supernatural scenes she had just witnessed had truly terrified her.
My legs are still weak;
But on the other hand,
Her professional ethics as a live streamer allowed her to watch the constantly rising live stream data.
I was so excited I almost fainted.
The number of online users has remained stable at around 6000!
"Jiang Jushi"
Lin Jinian pointed to the phone in her hand:
"What have you been filming?"
Jiang Rongrong was startled when her name was called.
Then a slightly embarrassed smile appeared on his face, and he stuck out his tongue:
"Um... Master Lin, actually... actually I was live streaming."
"live streaming?"
Lin Jinian was slightly taken aback.
Although he lives in the mountains, he knows that live streaming is very popular now.
No wonder this girl kept talking to herself while holding up her phone.
It turns out it was meant for others to see.
No wonder the incense value has increased so much.
Jiang Rongrong flipped the phone camera upside down and showed it to Lin Jinian.
On the screen, the dense barrage of comments almost completely obscured the image.
The number of online users is an astonishing 6000+.
"Wow! The Taoist priest is looking at the camera!"
"The Taoist priest is so handsome! His face is killer!"
"Does the Taoist priest accept disciples? I want to learn thunder magic! Even just learning that golden light shield would be fine!"
"Don't even dream about it, Taoist priest! Look at me, I have money, I can donate incense to the temple!"
"The Taoist priest not only possesses extraordinary magical skills, but his aura is also exceptional; that aloofness and elegance is something that no celebrity in the entertainment industry can match!"
Looking at these enthusiastic and even somewhat explicit comments,
A hint of discomfort appeared on Lin Jinian's handsome face.
Well, this can be considered a defeat for Qingyun Temple.
My master always talked about revitalizing the Taoist temple before he passed away.
If this reputation gets out,
There should be more believers in the future, right?
Everyone likes you very much!
Jiang Rongrong said excitedly,
"Everyone was stunned by that lightning spell and golden light!"
"This is way more exciting than exploring those dilapidated houses I used to go to!"
"Master Lin, if you ever need this kind of service again, could you please take me along?"
Lin Jinian looked into her expectant eyes and shook his head helplessly.
"This is extremely dangerous and not a game."
"This time I was able to protect you, but if we encounter something even more ferocious next time, I'm afraid even I won't be able to protect you."
Although it was a refusal, the tone was gentle and did not make anyone feel embarrassed.
Although Jiang Rongrong was somewhat disappointed, she knew that Lin Jinian was right.
That thing was really scary.
but……
She glanced at the still-hot live stream audience and made a silent decision:
In any case, I must stick close to this powerful figure from now on!
This is a walking traffic code!
"Alright, this matter is settled, it's time for this humble Taoist to return."
Lin Jinian put away the bank card and bowed slightly to Wang Shou and Jiang Rongrong.
"This humble Taoist takes his leave."
After saying that, he didn't linger. He slung his slightly worn canvas satchel over his shoulder and walked toward the door.
