It's normal for me to be a father to someone, right?

Chapter 176 History of Development

Xiaoqian left.

Lin Yi yawned, feeling that he would not be able to sleep tonight, so he took Moon Cicada and put her on the bed.

"You sleep in bed tonight, and I sleep in bed tomorrow night."

"..."

Yue Chan glanced at Lin Yi, do you think I can still fall asleep tonight?

It's a good deal.

Yuechan stood firmly under the bed, "No, just follow what we discussed at the beginning, one person at midnight."

Not long after, there were conversations outside.

"Someone can't breathe Yang Qi?"

"Yes, grandma."

"I told you to practice hard, but you just didn't listen. How can you not suck it out if your Taoism is high?"

"Grandma, that man, he is different."

"I'd like to see what's different."

The next moment, the door was pushed open.

Xiaoqian walked in with a woman who looked about 30 years old. The woman's eyes scanned the room and then fixed on Lin Yi.

She blinked her eyes in shock, "Lin Yi!?"

Lin Yi thought for a long time, but couldn't remember who she was, so he smiled politely, "Long time no see."

Unable to control herself anymore, Zheng threw herself into Lin Yi's arms.

In the next second, she was carried aside by Lin Yi.

Lin Yi said earnestly: "A man and a woman can't kiss each other."

Zheng Shi: "..."

Xiaoqian looked blankly at the side, did grandma know him?

Zheng wiped away her tears, turned to look at Xiaoqian, "This is my old friend, did you just say that he still has a friend? Let's also waive his friend's fee!"

"But... it's finished."

"Oh, that's fine."

Mrs. Zheng took Lin Yi's hand, "The Bodhi tree also misses you very much, I will take you to meet it."

Lin Yi was pulled forward by Mrs. Zheng, and picked up Yuechan conveniently.

The three came to the backyard, and the tall linden tree came into view.

The bodhi branches swayed and looked very happy.

Lin Yi finally remembered, "Are you Mrs. Zheng?"

Zheng Shi: "..."

You didn't recognize me at all just now, did you?
But thinking that the person in front of her was Lin Yi, Zheng felt relieved.

Lin Yi thought for a while and asked, "Isn't the bodhi tree in the front yard before?"

"Oh, it has been able to run after so many years of training. In order not to affect the business, it ran from the front yard to the back yard."

"What about the rest?"

"I'm looking for you!"

Mrs. Zheng sighed faintly, "During the time you were away, many things happened, I will tell you slowly..."

In the beginning, Yan Chixia and Hui Hai went down the mountain as soon as Lin left.

The two "left-behind children" Zheng and Bodhishu stayed in Lanruo Temple, lonely and helpless.

The world is becoming more and more chaotic, and there are people who died suddenly, and the Zheng family has taken in some innocent souls one after another.

But even in this chaotic world, from time to time a "righteous person" with a sense of justice comes to Lanruo Temple to kill demons.

Later, Zheng realized that these people did not come to slay demons, they clearly saw that they would not hurt others, so they came to earn their reputation.

Faced with this situation, Zheng decided to save himself.

Finally, she came up with a way.

Renamed Lanruo Temple to Lanruo Inn.

They started to do business with human beings, providing food and accommodation to human beings by using blindfolding methods, and absorbing a small part of yang energy accordingly.

In this way, the best of both worlds.

Human beings can eat and live well, and the ghosts in Lanruo Temple can also improve their morality a little bit.

The most important thing is that if there are "righteous people" to gain reputation, humans themselves will not agree.

It is not that there are no demons who have been greedy for Lanruo Temple and want to take Lanruo Temple as their own, but for some reason, the speed of cultivation on the bodhi tree and the mountain is inexplicably fast.

Those monsters with malicious intentions have basically become fertilizer.

Among them is a locust tree spirit, which was absorbed by the bodhi tree.

But what's weird is that no matter how high the Bodhi tree and the mountain are, they just can't transform into form.

Therefore, generally speaking, it is the Zheng family who comes forward.

Over time, a misunderstanding has arisen between human beings and demons...

They thought Zheng was the incarnation of the bodhi tree.

Therefore, they called Mrs. Zheng Grandma the Dryad.

In this regard, Zheng did not refute.

Anyway it's not a bad thing...

Zheng sighed, "You don't know how much peace of mind the employees of our inn have, because they are all ghosts, so they don't need rest or wages."

"Oh, it can't be said that they don't need wages, but they collect their own wages. They will absorb Yang Qi painlessly in the middle of the night while humans are asleep."

Mrs. Zheng has been the hands-off shopkeeper for a long time.

"By the way, Lin Yi, where have you been all these years?"

The system hurriedly prevented Lin Yi from telling the truth, so Lin Yi smiled and remained silent.

Mrs. Zheng didn't worry about this, she believed that Lin Yi would definitely not have left if she could.

"Hui Hai and Yan Chixia will come back once a year. Counting the time, they will come back in another month... They will be very happy to see you when they come back."

A bright smile appeared on Zheng's face, "We can finally be together again, and we don't need to be separated anymore."

Yue Chan blinked her eyes aside, listening to the conversation between the two, she was ignorant, but she probably guessed the ins and outs of the matter.

She pouted.

Lin Yi was indeed not her father.

……

Lin Yi and Yuechan lived in Lanruo Temple.

The next day, Ning Caichen bid farewell to Lin Yi, "Brother Lin, I have to continue on my way. What are your plans?"

"I live here."

Ning Caichen nodded, "It's really good here, but don't stay too long. Although they don't absorb much Yang Qi, if they absorb too much, they won't be able to hold it."

Ning Caichen touched the blue eye circles, he felt a little out of breath after walking two steps.

Lin nodded, "Don't worry."

"You just have to figure it out."

Ning Caichen was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly saw a woman in a white dress bringing Lin Yiduan a piece of fruit, which was still fresh.

Ning Caichen's eyes widened, "Is this also a cover-up? Can you give me a copy?"

Xiaoqian glanced at Ning Caichen, "This is not a trick, this is fresh fruit."

Ning Caichen took a breath, "How much Yang Qi does this have?"

Even food is hard to find now, let alone fresh fruit.

Xiaoqian looked a little strange, "Lin Yi is a friend of our shopkeeper, don't be yang."

Ning Caichen: "..."

He put down his luggage and looked at Lin Yi seriously, "Brother Lin, can you give me a taste? Please..."

"okay."

Ning Caichen carefully pinched a grape and put it in his mouth, tears of happiness flowed from the corners of his eyes.

"Thank you, Lin Yi."

"You're welcome."

Lin Yi asked, "Do you still want to eat?"

"No!"

Ning Caichen shook his head again and again.

To be a human being, you still have to be self-aware, and you can't push yourself too far.

Ning Caichen picked up his bags again and was about to set off, but he turned his head to look at Nie Xiaoqian and asked, "Will you come with me? I can redeem you."

"I don't want to."

She stayed here well, with yang energy and safety.

Only fools leave.

"Oh……"

Ning Caichen walked out of the inn, the background was a bit bleak...
