The boys were just having an awkward chat with the middle-aged man, but they found that the uncle in front of them was not the rigid uncle they had imagined, who had a generation gap with them.
They just look older than them, but they actually know a lot more and have a very broad range of knowledge. They can even chat with them about games.
At this time, several people were curious about what the other party was doing for a living, but after asking this question, they got a reply from the other party.
"Unemployed, haha."
Several boys were immediately surprised, their eyes filled with disbelief.
In their opinion, this uncle was knowledgeable and well-spoken, so he couldn't be an unemployed vagrant.
"Uncle, you're so amazing! I thought you were a professor or an engineer..."
The man was still laughing.
"I would like to, but my body won't allow it, so I won't have the chance."
Several people subconsciously thought that he was unable to display his talent because of his leg. They felt very sorry for him for a moment, but then they didn't want to poke at each other's scars anymore and started talking about other things.
Along the way, Lin Xi behaved the same as before, quietly following the large group up the mountain. Even when he looked forward, it was as if he was looking at the next stretch of the journey.
But as soon as they arrived at the entrance of Tianyun Temple, the uncle waved goodbye to the students.
Lin Xi noticed the other party's disappearing face from the corner of her eye, and soon told the squad leader that she wanted to go for a walk on her own.
After arriving at Tianyun Temple, the squad leader planned to let everyone move around on their own and just set a gathering time. But when Lin Xi said this, he quickly changed the gathering time and let everyone disperse.
Xu Jing originally wanted to go out with Lin Xi, but seeing that Lin Xi had a serious expression, as if he wanted her to solve something, she was very tactful and did not follow him.
He just whispered to her to be careful when Lin Xi left.
Lin Xi nodded at her, "It's okay, just play with them."
After saying that, he immediately turned towards the direction where the middle-aged man had disappeared.
When she first met the man halfway up the mountain, she noticed that something was wrong with him.
There was a familiar aura on him, exactly the aura of Xu Hui's mother!
Lin Xi had personally witnessed the burning of Xu Hui's mother's body, and it had been several days since the incident.
Moreover, she had not smelled the scent of Xu Hui's mother on Lu Ping in the past two days, but she smelled the scent of Xu Hui's mother on the middle-aged man just now.
It can be imagined that the time this person had in contact with Xu Hui's mother's body was definitely no shorter than Lu Ping's.
This immediately reminded her of the master who had helped Lu Ping.
However, strangely, she didn't feel any spiritual power from the middle-aged man just now.
He is a completely ordinary person.
Could he be that master? Or is he someone else?
But no matter what, the other person had the scent of Xu Hui's mother's corpse, so he must be related to Lu Ping's refining of zombies.
Tianyun Temple is worthy of being the most famous temple in Jiangyu. Even though it is not yet ten o'clock in the morning, there are already many pilgrims and tourists in the temple. Everyone bows down devoutly, or walks in groups of three or two, curiously strolling around the places allowed to be visited in the temple.
At this time, Lin Xi did not seem out of place among these tourists.
As soon as she followed the man's breath to a relatively secluded short archway, she was stopped by a young monk nearby.
"Pilgrims, please stay!"
Lin Xi had no choice but to stop.
The young scholar hurried over to stop Lin Xi and explained in a low voice.
"Pilgrim, this is the inner area of our temple. It is not convenient to visit. Please visit elsewhere."
Lin Xi raised his eyebrows when he heard that.
"So the only people who can enter are those from your temple?"
The young scholar nodded.
Lin Xi asked again: "But I just saw someone wearing long clothes, not dressed as a scholar, also come in."
The young scholar was standing not far away, so of course he saw who came in, and naturally he knew who the person Lin Xi was talking about was.
Although that person was wearing long robes and not dressed as a Taoist priest, he was not an outsider.
Seeing that Lin Xi was still looking at him, as if he would not give up until he got to the bottom of the matter, the young scholar could only explain.
"The man who just came in is actually a senior in our temple. He just returned to secular life a few years ago, but he still comes here to practice cultivation, so his situation is different."
He is actually a Taoist priest from Tianyun Temple.
Lin Xi understood what was going on. He didn't say anything in front of the young scholar. He nodded to show his understanding, then turned and walked away.
After arriving at a place where the young priest could not see him, he put up a hidden talisman and then walked into the archway in front of the young priest.
Inside the archway is a courtyard-type layout. The courtyard is not particularly large, but it is much quieter than the outside. At this moment, no one is seen moving around in the courtyard.
