Chapter 20: Night Visit to Guangjiao Temple
It succeeded, it actually succeeded!
Fang Yi was overjoyed and muttered to himself: "In this way, creating illusions becomes very useful."
For example, if you have a grudge with someone, but you don't want to kill or injure others, after all, these are illegal. Although Fang Yi has cultivated the Golden Elixir, his body is only stronger than that of ordinary people and still cannot withstand thermal weapons. In this case, he can create illusions to scare others away, or even use the damage characteristics of illusions to people's biological energy fields to quietly get rid of the enemy without causing trouble.
It can be said that this trick of creating an environment is his strongest trump card at present.
Summoning a golden dragon is more powerful, but the limitations are also very great.
First of all, to summon a golden dragon, one must be in a state of trance and immersed in the statue model.
Secondly, the Golden Dragon can only cause great damage to the energy fields of creatures that have no physical protection or are powerful enough.
Illusions are more practical than golden dragons, at least in the mortal world.
As long as Fang Yi wants, he can use illusion to kill people at any time.
Of course, he is a simple person by nature, and generally speaking, he would not be so cruel unless he is provoked too much.
"Look at the time."
Fang Yi picked up his phone and took a look, only to find that it was only 2:30 in the afternoon, and there was still some time before the dinner.
Because cultivation requires a balance between relaxation and tension, otherwise the body would be overloaded, he thought about it and took out a piece of wild ginseng from his backpack, then boiled a pot of water, made half a cup of ginseng tea, and waited until it was warm before drinking it.
After drinking, close your eyes and relax.
Fang Yi felt that the vital energy provided by the wild ginseng was constantly nourishing his body, and his body was becoming stronger and stronger.
…
In the afternoon, half past five.
Fang Yi took the car that Xiao Zhang came to pick him up and arrived at Mr. Zhu's other villa.
Different from the quasi-detached villas in the community before, Mr. Zhu’s villa is a true detached villa. It is said that a villa here costs 30 million.
When I got inside, there were people all over the room.
As soon as they saw Fang Yi come in, Zhu Licheng and Chen Jin, who were chatting, stood up.
The two of them quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Great Immortal, you are here?"
"Good evening, Mr. Chen."
"Come, come, come, great immortal, please come this way, I will introduce my family to you."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Zhu."
Zhu Licheng took Fang Yi's hand affectionately and introduced the middle-aged woman in gorgeous clothes, "This is my wife Su Wenju."
Su Wenju said with gratitude, "Great Immortal, thank you so much for helping our family solve a problem. Otherwise, we wouldn't know what to do with the house. Now it's all right. My old man and I can move in and leave this place for the children to live in."
Fang Yi smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay. It's just within my ability."
Zhu Licheng introduced another middle-aged couple, "They are my daughter and son-in-law, Zhu Zhihui and Yu Lesong."
"Hello, Mr. Yu and Mrs. Yu." Fang Yi greeted politely.
Yu Lesong extended his hand and shook his hand, "Hello, Master."
Zhu Zhihui also had a smile on her face, and like her mother, she said eagerly, "Great Immortal, that house is haunted, and rumors are flying everywhere, causing my family to be secretly pointed at by others. Fortunately, you helped us solve such a big problem."
Fang Yi still smiled and said, "Haha, you're welcome."
Finally, Zhu Licheng pulled over a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl and said, "Qianqian is my granddaughter. She's not very good at studying. Master, could you help me find her future?"
Qianqian pouted and said, "Grandpa, why do you say that to me?"
The little girl was quite cute. Fang Yi said casually, "Mr. Zhu, you have a big family and a big business. Are you still worried that Qianqian won't have a good future?"
Chen Jin interrupted at the right time, "Old Zhu, you only have one daughter, and your daughter and son-in-law only have one girl, Qianqian. Won't everything you earn in the future belong to her? What are you worried about? Don't bother the Immortal with such things."
Zhu Licheng was startled, then burst into laughter, "That's right."
Everyone chatted and invited Fang Yi to sit down.
Zhu Licheng's wife and daughter went to the kitchen.
Only Fang Yi and Qianqian were left in the living room.
Sitting on the high-end leather sofa, Fang Yi turned his head and looked at the person next to him and asked, "Mr. Chen, is your daughter feeling better?"
"Thank you for your concern, I'm much better now." Chen Jin told the details, "The doctor said Xiaoqing may have a concussion from the impact on her head, so she needs to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation. She's fine otherwise." He sighed, "I'm going to go to Wolf Mountain to burn incense tomorrow and pray for Xiaoqing. I hope she gets better soon."
Zhu Licheng nodded and continued, "Yes, Langshan is the dojo of Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva. Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva has always been quite spiritual. Go and burn some incense. Maybe it will really help."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Fang Yi couldn't help but have an idea in his mind. He had previously copied a miraculous model of a statue in a small temple in the village. Then, as Langshan is one of the most popular temples in the area, could the statue have functions that are even more magical than those in the small temple?
Even if not, the Wolf Mountain Statue has accumulated the energy of faith for more than 1,300 years, which is enough time for him to enter the state of unity between man and nature and "feel the way of heaven".
It seems worth a look.
Fang Yi made up his mind and decided to go to Langshan to take a look after dinner.
While they were chatting, the dishes were served one by one. Although it was a family banquet, all the dishes were of the best quality. It could be said that there were all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, such as wild yellow croaker that cost one or two thousand yuan each, and high-quality matsutake mushrooms that cost two or three thousand yuan per pound. Even the wine was high-end, such as Feitian Moutai, ｙèquen noble tofu, etc., both white and red. It might be that Zhu Licheng prepared these considering whether Fang Yi was used to drinking white wine.
Unfortunately, Fang Yi had not touched alcohol since he started practicing three years ago, and in the end he just drank some beverages.
The dinner lasted two hours.
Well, actually we didn’t eat much, we were just chatting most of the time.
Finally, Fang Yi stayed for a while and then got up to say goodbye.
Zhu Licheng and Chen Jin saw him out the door.
While Xiao Zhang was driving, Zhu Licheng handed over the gift box in his hand, "Master, I heard from Lao Chen that you like ginseng, so I asked someone to buy some good quality ginseng. Since you don't want to accept the reward, then accept the ginseng. Otherwise, I'd be a little embarrassed if you made such a great effort."
Fang Yi was not short of ginseng at the moment, so he declined politely, "I said that if you take the white jade as your reward, you don't need anything else. Forget about the ginseng, and you don't have to be embarrassed. For me, that piece of white jade is better than any reward."
Zhu Licheng smiled and said, "I know you are a man of your words, don't worry, the ginseng I bought is not worth much, a box is only a few thousand yuan, you can accept it and let me feel at ease, okay?"
Now that they have come to this point, it would be a bit ungrateful if I don’t accept it.
Besides, judging from the gift box packaging, the item shouldn't be too expensive. Fang Yi had seen it in a pharmacy before, and it was estimated to be around two to three thousand. He thought about it, and stretched out his hand and said, "Okay, then I will accept it respectfully, Mr. Zhu, thank you."
"Hey, Xiao Zhang's car is here." Zhu Licheng pointed to a place not far away, then walked quickly towards the car, "Let me help you get it in the car."
Fang Yi didn't think much about it and said, "Okay."
Then, Zhu Licheng opened the back door and put the gift box in.
Fang Yi said "goodbye" to the two of them, got into the car and left.
In the car.
Xiao Zhang asked, "Master, can you take me back to the hotel?"
Fang Yi asked: "Can you take me to Wolf Mountain?"
"Okay, sit down."
Xiao Zhang started the car.
…
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the foot of Wolf Mountain.
Xiao Zhang pointed to the mountain outside that was over 100 meters high and said, "Master, we have arrived at Wolf Mountain. Go do whatever you want to do first. I'll park the car here and wait for you. It's not easy to call a taxi here, otherwise it will be inconvenient for you to go back to the hotel later."
"No, thank you, Brother Zhang." Fang Yi refused: "It's late at night, you should go back and rest early."
Xiao Zhang wanted to say something, but seeing Fang Yi's determined eyes, he thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then you should be careful."
"Well, drive slower."
Fang Yi opened the car door and tried to get out.
Xiao Zhang reminded, "Don't forget to take the gift box."
"Haha, I almost forgot."
Fang Yi got out of the car and bent down to get the gift box. He didn't know what was in the gift box, but it seemed a bit heavy to hold.
He felt a little strange at the time, but Xiao Zhang was waiting to close the car door, so Fang Yi had to take out the things first and then close the door.
Xiao Zhang said hello and drove away.
Fang Yi then looked inside the gift box in confusion.
It would have been fine if I hadn't looked at it, but when I did, I saw densely packed bundles of brand new hundred-dollar bills!
Seeing this, Fang Yi was shocked and quickly took out the box of ginseng. He counted them carefully and found that there were about fifty bundles of 100-yuan bills. Judging from the thickness, one bundle should be worth about 10,000 yuan.
That means a total of five hundred thousand.
Fang Yi understood as soon as he saw the amount. He guessed that Zhu Licheng knew that he would not accept any reward other than the white jade, so he hid the money in the gift box bag for himself in this way!
"No wonder you didn't let me carry the bag just now."
He was a little amused.
Forget it, just accept it first. At worst, Zhu Licheng can come to help him if he needs anything in the future.
Fang Yi knew that Zhu Licheng gave him the money just to make friends with him. If he gave it back, the other party would feel that he did not want to befriend him, which would be very embarrassing.
Furthermore, although he received the white jade as compensation, in reality, Fang Yi did not receive any real compensation, because the white jade was obviously not something Zhu Licheng originally had. If he had not said it at the time, the other party would not have known about the existence of this piece of white jade.
It can be said that I felt at ease with the 500,000 yuan, as it was the remuneration agreed upon in advance.
Of course, Fang Yi accepted it not only because of these factors, but also took into consideration the future. He would practice cultivation wholeheartedly. Apart from spending a lot of money to buy ginseng to assist in his practice, what would happen to his parents? You need some money for your retirement.
So after careful consideration, he did not return the money.
"Let's not worry about the money for now, let's take a look at the situation at Wolf Mountain."
Fang Yi's eyes were fixed on the top of the mountain, where was the famous Guangjiao Temple. It was said that the temple housed two gods, and was the dojo of Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva, one of the Three Holy Ones of the West, as well as the dojo of the Great Sage Bodhisattva. It was one of the eight famous small mountains in Buddhism.
Even an unknown village temple can have such a magical statue.
I think the more famous Langshan Mountain should bring me greater gains.
Fang Yi looked around and found a place where he would not be disturbed and sat down, preparing to explore Guangjiao Temple at night.
