Infinity through different life

Chapter 57 Fayuan Temple

There was a slight movement of Xiao Lian practicing martial arts from the courtyard outside, and with Xu Jing's current sensing ability, it was naturally very clear.

After staying in the world of Rise of the Planet of the Apes for more than a year, he has long missed his family very much, and even feels as if he has passed away.

Xu Jing turned over and got off the ground, put on his clothes with a trace of discomfort, then left the room and came to the yard.

"Little Lotus!"

He came to Xiaolian's side in a few steps, and seeing her familiar and friendly face, he felt slightly excited.

"What's the matter, master?"

Xiao Lian stopped her movements, intuitively feeling that something was wrong with Xu Jing's mood, and asked with doubts on her face.

"It's nothing." Xu Jing took a deep breath and said with a smile, "It's just that I haven't seen you all night. I miss you."

A faint blush suddenly appeared on Xiao Lian's face, she glanced at Xu Jing with a hint of anger, then lowered her head shyly.

Xu Jing was in a good mood, and then said: "You go and get ready, after I go to see my parents, let's go out for a walk."

In order to time travel, he had an early dinner. At this time, his stomach was already growling with hunger, and he hadn't been out for several days, so he was going to go for a walk.

"Okay!" Xiao Lian happily responded, and ran briskly into the next room.

Xu Jing didn't care, and went straight to meet Xu Maozhe and others who were used to getting up early, and then returned to the residence.

Xiao Lian had already dressed up carefully and waited for a long time. When she saw him come back, she immediately went up to meet him.

Xu Jing didn't take Xu An and Xu Quan with him either, only went out with Xiao Lian.

He has changed a lot now, and he is no longer in a wheelchair. Although Xiao Lian is following him, after entering the market, no one recognizes him for a while.

But this is better, Xu Jing took a leisurely stroll around and filled his stomach.

"Master, today is the fifteenth day, why don't we go to Fayuan Temple to burn incense? I heard that the incense there is very effective."

Seeing that Xu Jing was about to go back, Xiao Lian rolled her eyes and said courageously.

Xu Jing thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay."

Immediately, the two left the market and walked towards the south gate.

Fayuan Temple is located in the south of the city, backed by the Heijie Mountains. It is a Buddhist temple built on the hillside of the Guishui River.

The monks in the temple used to chant scriptures behind closed doors, and only on the first and fifteenth days of each month would they open the temple doors to welcome visitors and burn incense.

Today coincides with the fifteenth day, as soon as we left the city gate, we could see common people in twos and threes walking towards Fayuan Temple together.

The two walked briskly, and it didn't take long before they arrived at the foot of the mountain, and when they looked up, they could see a small-scale temple located on the mountainside platform.

At this time, wisps of blue smoke continue to rise from the temple, gathering above the mountain peaks and constantly changing with the wind, which looks hazy and mysterious.

Xu Jing and Xiao Lian went up the stairs and soon arrived outside the temple gate.

The first thing that catches the eye are two huge incense burners, standing proudly in front of the door, one on the left and the other on the right. The incense burners are filled with sandalwood, and the lingering smoke continuously melts into the sky.

The crowds in the temple were like weaving, and the people who came to burn incense kept worshiping Buddha statues one after another, telling their wishes from the bottom of their hearts.

"Master, let's go in."

Xiao Lian couldn't wait any longer, and prepared to enter after speaking.

"Wait!" Xu Jing grabbed her and said with a strange expression, "Let's go back."

His spirit has reached the ultimate virtual level, and at this moment, in the induction, the Fayuan Temple in front of him is really scary.

Although he couldn't sense a specific picture, he keenly discovered that almost every Buddha statue in the temple had a ghost hidden in it.

These ghosts hide in it, steal the incense offered by people, and strengthen themselves.

If you go in here, you really don't know whether you are worshiping a ghost or a Buddha.

"Are there any gods or immortals in this world? Even the incense has been stolen, and these bodhisattvas and arhats didn't respond at all."

Xu Jing once heard that the incense in Fayuan Temple is very powerful. Every time after the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, many people's wishes will be fulfilled. Otherwise, it would not attract so many people to burn incense every time.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

He swallowed, grabbed Xiaolian's arm tightly, turned his head and went down the mountain without hesitation.

Even if it is really effective, he will not even step into the temple gate.

"Master! What's the matter?"

Xiao Lian pouted, her face was full of displeasure, her footsteps were dragged forward a little stiffly.

"Go!" Xu Jing said in a low voice, and pulled her hard.

Xiao Lian's complexion changed, knowing that something was wrong, she hurriedly started to run after Xu Jing.

The two didn't stop, and ran back to Guishui City in one breath.

Xu Jing felt his surroundings intently, and finally relaxed after he found that no spirit body was attracted to follow him.

……

Fayuan Temple, inside the main hall.

A majestic Buddha statue on the right side suddenly showed a mysterious smile, and a cold male voice said slowly: "Tsk tsk, this young man is not bad, his energy is really strong, and more importantly, his senses are so sensitive. The power will definitely not be so weak, it is a great tonic."

"Are you tempted?" Another hoarse voice sounded from the Buddha statue on the left: "Want to swallow him?"

"Yeah." The cold male voice asked without concealing the thoughts in his heart, "Don't you have any thoughts at all?"

"No." The hoarse voice replied without hesitation, and continued: "Although the black evil guards of the imperial court will not take the initiative to deal with us, but it is based on our duty, I don't want to ask for trouble, let alone With so much incense, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?"

"It's just an ordinary person. As long as we don't act recklessly, the black evil guards won't care if we do tooth-beating sacrifices occasionally. Besides, they have already left now, so there is nothing to worry about."

"As long as you have a sense of proportion..."

They talked without any scruples, but the strange thing was that none of the people coming and going in the hall noticed it.

……

When Xu Jing returned to the mansion, he happened to meet Xu Maozong who was leaving in a hurry.

"Jing'er, I was just looking for you." The other party said straight away as soon as he saw him, "Go back and pack up, we'll leave here before noon."

"In such a hurry?" Xu Jing was really shocked. The news was so sudden that he thought he would have to wait several days before leaving.

"I just got accurate news." Xu Maozong said in a low voice: "The people who came down from the court have already left, but they haven't caught the remaining monster. I'm worried that if that monster kills the carbine, we will be in danger. So there can be no further delay."

He still got the news from the prefect Ye. After all, he cheated his son to death. Naturally, he spared no effort to investigate the news from this side.

Xu Jing's expression suddenly became serious, and he nodded, "I understand, by the way, do my parents know?"

"I have already notified."

Even if there are still some industries that have not been dealt with cleanly, they can only be discarded, whichever is more important, neither Xu Maozong nor Xu Maozong are people who ignore the overall situation.
