Of course, what Lin Mengya didn't know was that the lesson she gave out on the spur of the moment had an unexpected effect.
The scholar's painting was exquisite, but most people didn't dare to worship the portrait of the King of Hell.
Therefore, the second day when the scholar discovered that his portrait had disappeared without a trace and there were still banknotes left on the table, he shouted to his neighbors, saying that the King of Hell had sensed his sincerity, so he personally came from the underworld to buy his painting.
Not to mention how narcissistic the King of Hell must be to buy so many portraits of himself to admire himself.
Just based on the frightening power of his portrait, if the King of Hell really knew about it, he would only think that the scholar was trying to discredit him.
But with this person's proof, those people were even more certain that the King of Hell had come to teach them a lesson.
Moreover, another version of the story gradually spread in the small town.
That was, their Temple Lord, the great Prince Xi, entered the King of Hell after his death and became one of the Ten Kings of Hell.
These people were all here with the intention of snatching the benefits.
As the saying goes, the gods are three feet above one's head, the Temple Lord must have sensed their intentions, so he appeared to warn them.
This rumor spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred.
In just a day or two, everyone knew about it.
Although some people didn't believe it, and even felt that it could be deliberately spread by someone to scare them away.
But more people tried every possible way to verify those who had experienced it.
Without exception, those people all described how terrifying the situation that night was.
When they found the portrait of the King of Hell in the morning, they were almost scared out of their wits.
Those people's arrogant attitude gradually became toned down.
They couldn't possibly wait until the Prince was free to come up and have a chat with them.
No matter how far the mischievous act of Yamashita had developed.
When Lin Mengya arrived at the Temple, she was stopped by the anxious Deputy Temple Lord Qin.
"You're finally back!"
Seeing Deputy Temple Lord Qin's worried look, Lin Mengya couldn't help but ask, "What exactly happened?"
"After the news of the Temple Lord's death spread out, those old monsters became a little restless. I think they want to choose a new Temple Lord."
Lin Mengya could not help but frown.
She knew that the 'old monsters' that Vice Palace Leader Qin mentioned were the true peak powers of the Sacred Hall.
The old Palace Master had once said that these people would only appear when the Temple was in a life and death situation.
Now that Temple had lost two Temple Masters, they naturally had to take charge of the situation.
"But the Hall Master hasn't even been confirmed dead, yet they're already so anxious. What if the Hall Master returns in the future? What should we do then? "she asked.
Deputy Palace Master Qin sighed and said, "They have also thought about it. Therefore, they only have this idea now, but they haven't put it into action yet.
However, once it was confirmed that the Temple Master had fallen, those old monsters would definitely forcefully interfere with the affairs of the Temple.
At that time, even you and I will not be able to withstand it. "
Lin Mengya would never allow Yu to hand over the position of the Temple Master, which he had worked so hard to attain.
"From now on, I will be in charge of all the affairs of the Temple.
If they exert pressure on you, tell them to come to me directly. "
It was not that Lin Mengya did not have the ability to manage the Temple, but she had a clear division of labor with Long Tianhao.
Even under such a hurried situation, she was able to coordinate with Deputy Palace Master Qin and all the personnel of the Temple to ensure that the operation of the Temple would not go wrong.
In this way, the shaky management of the Temple was forcibly stabilized by her.
After working tirelessly for a few days, Deputy Palace Master Qin brought the news of those old monsters.
"Madam, they said they want to see you."
"When?" She looked up and asked calmly.
"Tonight."
Lin Mengya thought for a while and nodded.
"Alright, thank you for your arrangement, Palace Master Qin."
Deputy Palace Master Qin immediately went to make the preparations.
Lin Mengya rubbed her eyebrows.
It would be a tough battle to deal with these old monsters. She could almost imagine what reasons they would use to force her to hand over the power of the Temple.
However, she was not completely hopeless.
At least for now, the uncertainty of Long Tianhao's fate was one of the reasons why those old monsters felt that it was a hindrance.
However, as time passed, these obstacles would lose their effect.
She had to find Long Tianhao before that happened.
In a village not far from the foot of the Sacred Mountain, Long Tianhao was still lying on the bed.
"The sun outside is very nice. Would you like to come out and bask in the sun, young master?"
Jun Xuanwei, who was dressed as a maid, said to Long Tianhao with a smile.
Long Tianhao, who was reading a military book, did not even lift his head.
Jun Xuanwei, who had been rebuffed, had a look of dissatisfaction in her eyes.
She had been here for a few days.
At first, when she found out that Murong Xi was not dead, she was very happy.
Moreover, there was no Gong Ya by his side. She thought that with her beauty and talent, she would be able to capture Murong Xi's heart.
However, she did not expect that this guy was not only disabled, but also ignored her.
She looked at Murong Xi coldly, but in her heart, she wondered if this man was worth giving up so much.
"A good dog does not block the way. What are you doing in my brother-in-law's room instead of doing your own things in broad daylight? "
The voice that Jun Xuanwei hated the most rang out from behind her.
It was the woman who only knew how to use Murong Min's favor to order her around and show no respect at all.
She did not know why Murong Min would fall for such a woman!
However, her current identity was that of a maid that Murong Min had bought to serve Murong Xi.
Before Murong Min brought her back, she had made a pact with her.
If she were to expose her true identity, she would have to bear the consequences herself.
Therefore, when faced with the woman named Gu Pan who kept making things difficult for her, she could only choose to swallow her anger.
"I only want to help you out to bask in the sun, young master. I have no other intentions."
Gu Pan looked at her from head to toe and finally snorted coldly.
"Let me tell you, my brother-in-law and my sister are very close. People like you will never be able to get between them.
If you know what's good for you, you'd better keep your thoughts to yourself. Otherwise, I'll chase you out! "
As a woman, especially one who had been in the palace and the Prince's Mansion,
From the first time Gu Pan saw Xu Wei, she could tell that she was not as simple as she seemed.
Especially when she saw her brother-in-law, her eyes were fixed on him like a mouse looking at sesame oil.
Heh, she did not expect that a maid that Long Qinghan had casually bought from the streets would have such thoughts about her brother-in-law.
She had to keep an eye on Elder Sister Ya 'er!
After chasing her out, Gu Pan walked into the room.
"Brother-in-law, how do you feel today?"
Long Tianhao raised his head and smiled at her. "I feel much better now, thank you for your medicine."
"Don't thank me yet. I stole this medicine from Elder Sister Ya 'er.
I've made up for my mistake and we both got what we deserve. "
She raised the medicine in her hand and gestured to Long Tianhao.
When Long Tianhao heard that the medicine in her hand belonged to Ya 'er, his eyes filled with longing.
While Gu Pan was helping him apply the medicine, the two of them conversed in a low voice.
"He keeps watching me, so I can't contact the outside world. Do you have any way to contact Elder Sister Ya?"
After she was caught by Long Qinghan, all her belongings, including the medicine, were taken away by Long Qinghan. He checked them one by one before returning them.
Now, those slightly poisonous medicines were all gone.
Even the medicine in her hand was suddenly given to her by Long Qinghan for some reason.
Now she and Long Tianhao were in a situation where no one could help them even if they begged for help.
"I can't help it. But according to the direction we're heading, we should be not far from the Holy Mountain. "
Hearing this, Gu Pan suddenly became excited.
"We're not far from the Holy Mountain, so we can contact Elder Sister Ya, right?"
"It's not that simple. Look at the guards outside, even a fly can't fly out, let alone us."
Long Tianhao was much calmer than Gu Pan.
Just when they finished talking, they heard Long Qinghan's dissatisfied voice coming from the door.
"Long Tianhao, how dare you lay your hands on your sister-in-law! Your shamelessness is beyond my imagination!"
Seeing that Gu Pan was treating Long Tianhao so gently, Long Qinghan was so jealous that he almost killed himself.
Gu Pan frowned and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just here to help my brother-in-law because he can't move freely! "
"I've already bought a maid for him because he can't move freely. Why? Are you so willing to serve him?"
The jealousy in Long Qinghan's eyes kept surging. Now, Long Qinghan had become a big vinegar jar.
Not to mention that Gu Pan was applying medicine for Long Tianhao. If she smiled at a brick now, he would gritted his teeth and interrogated this brick whether he wanted to steal his wife away from him.
Gu Pan glared at him and said coldly, "You're unreasonable. If you continue to talk nonsense, I'll ignore you!"
Long Qinghan could only shut his mouth unwillingly.
But his eyes were still fixed on Gu Pan.
From the looks of it, he was probably Gu Pan. If they didn't go out now, he would rush over and bite them.
"Childish!"
Before Gu Pan left, he even said something to him.
Long Qinghan's face darkened, but he didn't say a word.
Long Tianhao, who was lying on the bed, couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw the way Long Qinghan and Gu Pan interacted.
"Haven't you talked it out? Didn't I say that it would be fine as long as you admit your mistake?
It's not shameful for a man to lower his head and admit his mistake in front of his wife. "
"It's none of your business!"
Long Qinghan's spirits were lifted, and he yelled at Long Tianhao with grievance, "It's all your fault for coming up with that lousy idea!
I apologized, but look at the result. She looks at me as if I'm her enemy!
I think you deliberately misled me! "
Long Tianhao felt that something was wrong, so he asked in a low voice, "How did you apologize?"
"Of course I told her that I was wrong. Then she asked me, 'What's wrong?'
I told her that I shouldn't force her without her consent. "
"And then? What did Gu Pan say? "
Long Tianhao thought through Long Qinghan's words and found nothing wrong.
Long Qinghan was also confused, "He said" Oh "and nothing else."
At this moment, even Long Tianhao, the love mentor, was confused.
Logically speaking, under normal circumstances, Ya 'er would definitely forgive him after he apologized like this.
But Long Tianhao didn't know that when Long Qinghan apologized to Gu Pan, he sneaked into Gu Pan's room in the middle of the night because he missed her.
Originally, he thought that if Gu Pan was asleep, she wouldn't notice his sneaky movements.
But he didn't expect that the girl would be more cautious after she was forced by Long Qinghan.
So she found out that Long Qinghan was trying to steal her beauty.
How could this kind of person who apologized while continuing to do despicable things be easily forgiven by the girl?
She was kind enough not to beat him to death on the spot.
