Meeting an Old Daoist
"Ugh … I don't think so. You look like a spirit … "Lin Yi didn't know what kind of existence Jiao Yazi was. Theoretically speaking, he was no longer a human.
"Congratulations, you got it right." Jiao Yazi nodded. "I'm a ghost. Are you afraid?"
"…" Lin Yi was speechless.
He didn't know how much time he spent on the breakthrough, but suddenly, he heard footsteps coming from outside the room. Lin Yi jumped and quickly came back to reality from the jade space. He looked at the alarm clock on the bedside. It was already 6: 30 am. He usually woke up at this time, but because of the breakthrough today, he was delayed for a while.
Lin Yi put on his clothes and pushed the door open. He saw Mengyao and Yushu talking in the kitchen.
"Why didn't Shield Bro prepare breakfast today?" Yushu rubbed her abdomen with one hand as she searched the table with the other. "Did you hide it somewhere?"
"Alright, Shu, Lin Yi hasn't woken up yet. He rushed back to save us. He must be tired after the past two days. Let's go to school and have breakfast." Mengyao shook her head.
"Oh, Yaoyao sis, are you worried about Shield Bro?" Yushu was startled and looked at Mengyao curiously.
Mengyao blushed and coughed. "Why would I be worried? He's our savior, so we have to treat him better! "
"Oh, okay." Yushu nodded. "But the school's breakfast isn't good. We should ask Uncle Chu to get a new manager!"
"That manager is a relative of mine. We can't change him …" Mengyao said. "Alright, we're graduating soon anyway. We can't eat too many times."
Lin Yi stood at the door and smiled. Heh, the Miss is still the same. She always cares about people behind their backs but acts cold on the surface.
"It's still early. I'll make something for you guys." Lin Yi walked out of the room and went to the kitchen.
"You … You're awake?" Mengyao jumped in fright, her eyes wide open. Did he hear what she'd just said? Mengyao felt shy and looked at Lin Yi fiercely. "Why didn't you make a sound? Are you trying to scare me? "
"Ha …" Lin Yi didn't say anything and went to the kitchen.
Li Fu had bought a lot of half-finished products ever since he moved into the villa. He opened the freezer to find some frozen dumplings, and took one out and put it in a steamer basket. He then took out some day lily and enoki mushrooms from the freezer compartment, washed them clean, and cut them into sections. He then poured in some pepper oil, salt, sugar, and chili, and stirred it all up, turning it into a delicious pickled vegetable.
On the other side, the soup dumplings were done as well. Lin Yi quickly picked them up from the pot and placed them on the table with the pickled vegetables. "Alright, time to eat."
"Wow, as expected of Shield Bro, you're amazing!" Yushu had been starving for a long time, and she reached for the bun.
"Shu, how can you eat like that? Didn't you wash your hands when you peed? "Mengyao stopped her.
"Ugh … I think I didn't pee on my hands …" Yushu blushed a little.
"Think?" Mengyao asked.
"Ugh … Just a little bit. I got it on my hands when I was wiping them …" Yushu stuck her tongue out.
"Then why aren't you washing your hands?" Mengyao glared.
"Then this dumpling … You can have it, Yao Yao." Yushu wanted to give the dumpling to Mengyao.
"I don't want it!" Mengyao waved her hands.
"Shield Bro, this is for you!" Yushu put the dumpling on Lin Yi's plate.
"......" Lin Yi was speechless.
When Yushu came back from washing her hands, Lin Yi was still staring at the dumpling, speechless. It wasn't that Lin Yi disliked Yushu. Quite the contrary, he was excited about it. Lin Yi wasn't a prankster. He couldn't bring himself to do it, and he couldn't bring himself to eat it.
"Throw it away." Mengyao said as she looked at Lin Yi.
"I'm not hungry, you guys eat." Lin Yi said with a sigh. Living with Yushu meant that he had to bring out some courage.
Yushu seemed to have realized that something was wrong with Lin Yi. She looked at Lin Yi, and then at the dumpling in front of Lin Yi. She started laughing. "Haha … Shield Bro, I used my left hand to hold the dumpling, and I used my right hand to pee …"
With that, Yushu took the dumpling in front of Lin Yi and took a big bite. It tasted really good …
Lin Yi and Mengyao looked at each other- they could see the helplessness in each other's eyes …
After breakfast, Faubert came to pick Mengyao and Yushu up. Lin Yi, on the other hand, drove his crappy van. Lin Yi was feeling pretty good after breaking through from golden to mystic. Mystic masters were rare in the common world now, weren't they? He wouldn't be afraid of Gonggao the next time he saw him. Physical practitioners were always a little weaker than spiritual practitioners. It wasn't a big difference, but there was still a difference.
Lin Yi was feeling happy when he turned his head. He jumped in shock! This was because, in the van that originally had only one person, an old man had sat in the front passenger seat without anyone noticing! The old man was dressed very fashionably, in a t-shirt, jeans, sunglasses, and slicked-back hair.
"Shit!" Lin Yi slammed on the brakes. "Who are you?"
How and when did the old man get in the car? Lin Yi didn't notice at all! He was originally happy about his breakthrough to mystic early phase, but his mood dropped to the bottom.
"I'm Monk Mo Kongwen." The old man nodded to Lin Yi. "Amitayus Buddha."
"Amitayus Buddha? Are you a Daoist or a monk? "Lin Yi didn't understand. Who was this old man? Was he a master? However, Lin Yi couldn't feel a single bit of energy coming from him.
"Neither." The old man shook his head.
"Then why do you call yourself a monk?" Lin Yi blinked.
"My surname is Monk, my name is Mo Kongwen." The old man said.
"…" Lin Yi was speechless. The old man was obviously bullshitting. "I don't know you. You can get out."
"Mister, you have too much hostility. It's a bad sign …" The old man kept talking.
Lin Yi opened the door to the passenger seat and kicked the old man out. He started the car quickly and stepped on the gas pedal, speeding away.
He was an old liar! Lin Yi was just relieved when he heard someone knocking on the window. He turned his head and saw Mo Kongwen running outside the car. He even knocked on the window.
Lin Yi looked at the speed of the car and his eyes widened! Sixty miles per hour. How did this old man keep up?
