Chapter 27 "Picking Up"

The dilapidated temple, the dilapidated Zen room, the squeaking wooden bed, the old monk with gray eyebrows was dying, and his eyes were lovingly looking at the little monk in front of the bed.

"Huihai, after I leave, you are the only one left in this temple."

"Thank you, I contacted your father two days ago and calculated the time. It won't take long to go, he should be here."

"Huihai, remember, don't leave the Buddhist temple at night..."

After saying that, the old monk slowly closed his eyes and then left silent.

The little monk couldn't help but burst into tears, "Master, you haven't told me what my father looks like..."

The little monk buried the old monk and sat at the gate of the temple and looked into the distance.

I don't know if my dad looks good...

The little monk waited for a whole day but did not see a figure. At night, he kept in mind the old monk's advice and stayed under the Buddha statue in the Buddhist temple, listening to the strange sounds outside.

There were knocks outside the door from time to time, and there seemed to be a faint sound of beautiful and gentle female voices calling him out... Fortunately, the little monk was only five years old and didn't understand this temptation.

The night was spent peacefully. When the morning sun shone into the Buddhist temple, the curled monk slowly opened his eyes, then washed and cleaned as usual.

While cleaning the fallen leaves in the yard, the little monk looked up at the Bodhi tree that had been around since he could remember, thinking about the feasibility of cutting it off.

I can’t finish the fallen leaves every day...

Later, the young monk thought that the old monk was dead anyway, so why did he sweep the floor? So he threw the broom and continued to run to the door and sit and wait.

Finally, in the evening, a figure came over in a skeleton.

The little monk's eyes lit up. Is it my father?

...

Lin Yi pulled the tilted Taoist robe on his body as he walked. The system said that his original clothes were not suitable, so he picked up a Taoist robe.

It’s a pity that this robe doesn’t fit.

The system did not expect that its suggestion would be adopted by the host. After a brief moment of confusion, it was extremely ecstatic and felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

Then it realized that the mission target this time was a little monk. As the father of the little monk, is it appropriate for the host to wear this Taoist robe?

However, the system did not dare to continue to make suggestions. It was good for the host to listen to it once. You should not be too greedy when doing the system...

"The host, the destination is ahead."

"Oh, Huihai is such a good boy, and he is waiting at the door!"

Lin Yi also saw the little monk sitting at the door, his shiny bald head shining brightly in the sun.

The little monk stood up from the steps and trotted to Lin Yi. He looked at the man who looked unscrupulous and spoke carefully, "Dad?"

Lin Yi touched the little monk's bald head and asked, "Is there anything to eat?"

The little monk nodded vigorously, "Some!"

He took Lin Yi into the temple. Although the temple was dilapidated at this moment, it was still clean. Soon the young monk brought a bowl of white rice porridge and came over.

Lin Yi tilted his head, "Where is the meat?"

The little monk replied honestly: "Menci cannot eat meat."

Lin Yi looked at the bland white porridge, and then looked at the little monk seriously, "As the saying goes, wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha stays in his heart."

The system shouted, "Host, you can't teach the children badly!"

The system only hopes that Huihai will not be fooled by the host, but Huihai is obviously very dependent on Lin Yi, the father...especially when the old monk passed away.

So, after thinking seriously for a few seconds, the little monk nodded in agreement.

Lin Yi grinned, "Then let's eat meat!"

The little monk said honestly: "There is no meat in the temple."

"Then go buy it?"

“No money either.”

"oh……"

Lin Yi touched his waist, then seemed to remember something, gave up his plan just now, and asked, "How to make money?"

The little monk thought seriously about how the old monk made money before. It seemed that the old monk had never made money and had to rely on his entire life to make money. So he said, "I don't know."

The system jumped out to show its presence at this time, "Host, I know that the temple mainly relies on others to donate incense and oil, but now the temple is dilapidated, and no one will come to burn incense."

"oh……"

Lin Yi barely finished drinking the white porridge. The sky was already a little dark at this time, and the sunset in the sky was about to jump down to the horizon.

The little monk hurriedly pulled Lin Yi to the Buddhist temple, "Master said he could not leave the Buddhist temple at night, it was going dark soon, so we will go there now."

The moment Lin Yi and the little monk stepped into the Buddhist temple, the last ray of sunshine in the sky completely disappeared, and in an instant, the world seemed to change drastically.

There was a whimpering sound outside the Buddhist temple, sounding like a child was crying.

The branches and leaves of the Bodhi tree rustled in the wind, and the originally quiet yard seemed to be noisy in an instant, with all kinds of strange sounds endlessly.

Lin Yi blinked in confusion, "Is there anyone setting up a stall outside?"

The system immediately shouted, "No!"

It was afraid that Lin Yi would run out to see it curiously, and he would not be able to see this thing, and he would not be able to come back after reading it.

Although Lin Yi has the ninth level of Qi training, he doesn’t know how to use it at all!

Seeing Lin looking at the Buddha statue curiously at first, the system breathed a sigh of relief, but it immediately sucked the breath back because a melodious female voice sounded outside the door.

"Official, come and have fun~"

Lin Yi moved his eyes from the Buddha statue to the door.

He was about to go out and take a look, but in the nervous gaze of the system, he suddenly stopped again.

"A little sleepy."

Lin Yi yawned, took out a book from his Taoist robe, pled it behind his head, and began to sleep.

The system just glanced at the title of the book: "Maoshan Taoist Technique".

It suddenly remembered something. During the day, it said that the host's clothes were not suitable for the background of this world, so the host "picked up" a Taoist robe by the lake.

And in the lake, an old Taoist priest was taking a shower...

Who is the old Taoist priest who was "picked" by the host?

Is this "Maoshan Taoist Technique" authentic?

It didn't know that there was a book in the Taoist robe that the host picked up...

The little monk saw Lin Yi sleeping, tiptoed to Lin Yi, lying beside Lin Yi, rubbing his bare head against Lin Yi, and closed his eyes with peace of mind.

The next morning, Lin Yi opened his eyes and was stunned. He remembered the sound of last night. He immediately got up and ran to the yard, but found that there was nothing in the yard except a big tree.

He scratched his head in confusion, and then a sudden look appeared on his face. He remembered a word: Night Market.

So, those small vendors only set up stalls at night.

After Lin Yi figured it out, he decided to buy some meat tonight.

He has seen it, and the Buddha statues in the temple should be able to sell for some money...
