Seeing the monk leave with a smile on his face, Pei Zi Yun smelled the fragrance and felt that something was wrong. He hurriedly covered his nose. Although he covered his nose, some of the fragrance still entered his nose, and he felt restless. He was shocked, realizing that something was wrong with this fragrance.
Pei Zi Yun's heart was extremely restless, and he was unable to control himself. Pei Zi Yun endured it bitterly. After about an hour, he saw that the student had just finished his meal and was hugging a beautiful woman. He looked at Pei Zi Yun with hatred and thought, 'Why doesn't this person give in?
These students had a bright future ahead of them. However, in the afternoon, they had become thieves. Their hearts were filled with hatred and they drank until they were drunk. Soon, they fell asleep.
Pei Zi Yun felt as though he could no longer endure the torment. He then heard a soft voice say, "I didn't expect you to have such a strong personality, and to be able to resist the demonic aroma. If you have some willpower, I will save myself."
He then saw a rock hit a girl nearby, and she fainted. A rope then fell from the window. Pei Zi Yun hurriedly grabbed the rope and wrapped it around his waist. He then started climbing upwards.
The rope was like a snake as it pulled Pei Zi Yun up. Pei Zi Yun turned around and saw that he was still in his original position. He was shocked. Could it be that his soul had left his body?
The rope stopped in its tracks. Outside the temple, he saw a Daoist waiting for him. He smiled and looked closely. This Daoist was dressed in sloppy robes. It was the sloppy Daoist from the other day.
Seeing Pei Zi Yun's shocked expression, the Daoist laughed, "Don't be surprised. It's just a simple trick."
"You've already escaped."
He was about to say something when he felt something warm in his robes. He touched it and realized that it was a communication talisman. The talisman glowed brightly as he tapped it. A shadow appeared and said, "Your senior uncle has been confirmed to be reincarnated. He has activated the reincarnation cycle. There's no need to try anymore."
"What? Senior uncle has been confirmed to be reincarnated?" The sloppy Daoist's expression changed as he asked.
Pei Zi Yun was shocked to see this. He then saw the Daoist's expression change and knew that something was wrong. He hurriedly bowed to him.
The sloppy looking Daoist smiled bitterly as he stretched out a hand and held onto Pei Zi Yun. He then sighed, "Since you are not the reincarnation of my senior uncle, you have your own origins. I cannot accept you."
"Please guide me, Dao Leader." Pei Zi Yun gritted his teeth and was about to kowtow again.
The Daoist sighed and said, "Everyone in the world thinks that Daoism is vast and can save everything. Actually, that's not the case. You have the virtue of your ancestors. I can see that your karmic ties are intertwined with each other. If you don't sever them, the Human Tribulation will be huge and it will be hard for you to escape. Even I will be implicated."
When Pei Zi Yun heard this, his heart skipped a beat and asked, "What do you mean by reincarnation?"
"Reincarnated people come with the will of the Dao. They are not ordinary people, so I can naturally accept them. If you want to enter my sect, I will ask you three questions."
"Can you let go of your mother and follow me into the mountains to cultivate?"
"Can you let go of your lover and follow me to the mountain to cultivate?"
"Can you let go of your achievements and follow me into the mountains to cultivate?"
When Pei Zi Yun heard these three questions, he could not speak. Seeing that Pei Zi Yun was speechless, the Daoist then said, "But we are fated. You helped me with food and wine the last time. I am a person who will take revenge and repay kindness. Forget it, I have a manual that I can teach you!"
"If you can cultivate to the tenth level, I can guide you into the sect."
"Even if I can't, I can still train my ears."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Daoist turned around and leaped into the air, disappearing.
Pei Zi Yun watched as the Daoist left and took a deep breath. His expression returned to normal as he hid in a corner of the temple. Not far away, a monk was patrolling with a torch in his hand. Pei Zi Yun rubbed his chest and remembered the manual that the Daoist had given him.
Pei Zi Yun did not show it on his face, but thought to himself, "That was close!"
What the monk had said earlier made sense. More than ten students had met with misfortune. Not to mention Silver Dragon Temple, even Holy Jail Sect would not be able to suppress them.
If they could suppress them, they would not be found out by the officials and be exterminated in a few years.
Because of this, Pei Zi Yun gritted his teeth and persevered. This Holy Jail Sect was not a good sect. But at the critical moment of life and death, Pei Zi Yun thought that since he was a trader and had experienced many things, he would be able to disregard life and death. He never would have thought that he would lose his mind and almost fall into the abyss.
"Life and death is a big deal, the ancients did not lie to me!"
"But finally, there's a chance."
"And this time, the system did not give me any notifications. Indeed, the system is just a spiritual treasure, and not the real system."
"But spiritual treasures can predict fortune and misfortune. Even the ancient swords could be used to warn me, not to mention the Plum Blossom. Maybe I don't have enough authority! "
"No matter what, let's go!"
"As for Zhang Jie Yu and the sloppy Daoist, one of them is putting on a show, which is actually fake. The other one is deliberately mystifying things. What three questions? They're all fake.
Pei Zi Yun started running, thinking to himself, "I was too careless this time. Next time, I will bring my sword."
"With my martial arts, as long as I don't get surrounded, even if it's these monks, I can take them down one by one."
At this point, the night sky was dark. Stars were twinkling in the sky, like pearls and jewels, blinking mischievously.
Pei Zi Yun felt his way carefully. He knew that when the Daoist saved him, the shadow he saw must have been an illusion talisman.
At this point, he was still very close to the temple. He didn't dare to make a sound, but kept his footsteps low. He held a dagger in his hand as he made his way down the mountain.
Just as he was sneaking around, he heard some noises in front of him. Pei Zi Yun hurriedly squatted down and observed. There was a tea pavilion in front of him. During the day, he had seen a waiter inside. Now, there was a torch in front of the tea pavilion. Pei Zi Yun sneaked a peek and saw a few monks with scars on their faces. They were sitting around a table in the tea pavilion.
As he approached the tea pavilion, he heard a monk drinking a bowl of wine. There was no meat on the table, only a plate of peanuts and two jugs of wine. On the table, there was a deck of dominoes, and a few people were playing. There were some copper coins on the table, and they were playing with it.
There was only one monk standing at the door, looking around cautiously. From time to time, he would look into the distance. The other monks who were playing were shouting at the other monk, "Fifth brother, what's there to see outside? Come in and drink with us, and play with us!"
Seeing that there was no one outside, the Fifth Brother was a little tempted. He thought about it and went in. He took a bowl of wine, poured himself a bowl of wine, and drank it. After a mouthful of wine, he couldn't keep his mouth shut. He couldn't help but complain, "I don't know what's going on today. We're unlucky to be sent to this outside path!"
"Fifth brother, you don't know about this. Today, there are people from above, and that's why we were sent here. It's also our bad luck. If not, if we had stayed in the temple, the beauties would have been ours. Now, let's not even think about it, sigh …. "
"Stop talking, stop talking. It's annoying to talk about it. Let's drink, let's drink. Second brother, show your cards, show your cards!"
Pei Zi Yun was eavesdropping, and saw that the monks inside had called the other monks in. He was overjoyed. He didn't have any Dao Arts, and only had a dagger. If he were to fight against these monks, it would be extremely risky. Not to mention the fact that he might alert the monks inside. Even if he were to fight them alone, he might not be able to win.
Now, he had to avoid any risks. As he thought about this, he bent down and walked along the bushes, feeling his way past the pavilion.
At this point, the ears of the one called fifth brother twitched. He put down his bowl of wine and walked to the door to look outside. Pei Zi Yun hurriedly lay down and didn't move. There wasn't much moonlight tonight, and only a few stars.
"What's going on?" The fifth brother, who was drinking wine, had very sharp ears. In a short time, he had reached the door. His sharp eyes scanned the area outside, and couldn't help but feel suspicious, "Why isn't there any movement?"
"Fifth brother, don't be so paranoid. What's going on? It's probably a rabbit stirring up the grass. Come, come, let's drink and play cards. It's so dark, what's there to see? "
As the fifth brother thought about this, he walked closer to the tea pavilion. As he drank and played cards, he felt that something was amiss. After playing two rounds, he walked out and stood at the door. Since he couldn't call out to the few monks, he didn't mention it. He continued drinking and playing.
…
Prefecture City
The new dynasty had been established, and the prefecture city was still bustling with activity. There was no curfew. Although the streets were quiet, there were still many night watchmen carrying lanterns and banging on the gongs.
There were some mansions with lights on, and the sounds of singing and dancing could be heard. As for the restaurants and tea houses, they were all closed. The lights on the streets were sparse, and only the inns were still lit.
Inside the inn, a waiter had one hand on the table, and his eyes were closed. He kept nodding his head as he dozed off.
At this point, the waiter heard some movement and woke up. He rubbed his eyes and walked forward. It was a guest from the west wing, and his name was Pei Zi Yun. He hurriedly smiled, "Ai, it's young master Pei. You've returned to the inn?"
As the waiter spoke, he caught a whiff of alcohol, as well as the fragrance of a woman. He then thought to himself, 'So he's gone to drink. This young master has always been a dutiful person, and yet he's such a restless person.'
Pei Zi Yun looked at the waiter's smile, and knew that he had misunderstood. He laughed as well. The waiter smiled back, "I can smell the alcohol on young master's body. You must not be sleeping well. Let me fetch some hot water for you."
Pei Zi Yun rubbed his tummy. The entire journey back had taken him a lot of effort. He had borrowed a tree and climbed over the wall to enter the prefecture city. He was famished and thirsty. He hurriedly stopped the waiter who was about to fetch some water, "There's no rush. Waiter, do you have anything to eat? Don't be stingy, prepare some food for me and send it upstairs.
The hot water will be served later. "In the inn, there were often guests who were hungry at night. Hence, they always prepared food for them. Seeing that the scholar was asking for food, the waiter replied," Please wait, young master. I shall send it over shortly. "
The waiter then walked towards the back of the inn to fetch some hot water for him to eat. At this point, Pei Zi Yun was both thirsty and hungry. He went upstairs to drink a few cups of tea before he was able to quench his thirst. He then thought for some time before retrieving a script and started writing.
After he had finished writing, the waiter came back with a box of food. When he opened the box, he saw a plate of braised meat, which was sliced up and mixed with the sauce. There was also a plate of tofu, which had been fried until it was golden brown. There was also a plate of fried bean sprouts. There weren't many of them, but they were still steaming hot and had a fragrant aroma.
The waiter then took out a plate of dumplings and apologized, "The chef isn't around tonight, so the food is a little simple. I hope young master will forgive me."
Pei Zi Yun looked at the sumptuous meal and was satisfied, "When the hot water arrives, please send it up and clean up the dishes."
