Chapter 287
Wei Mo and Qing Li also felt that Huang Li had brought this upon herself, so they were not too sad, because they had already told Huang Li everything they needed to know, but she was just too greedy to listen. She was able to use the snake demon to treat them cruelly, so maybe she was crooked from the beginning.
Yuan Jing and Funeng stayed here for a day and then left. Wei Mo and Qingli were reluctant to let them go and asked for the address of the Liuzhuang Taoist Temple. They would definitely visit the two of them when they have time in the future.
After leaving the county, Yuan Jing took Funeng to see the little deer monster. The little deer monster was very happy to see Yuan Jing, and said that after sending his mother-in-law away, he would go to Yuan Jing for help.
Yuan Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. He was worried that the future development of Liuzhuang Taoist Temple would be somewhat contrary to his original body's wishes. Perhaps the number of monsters would exceed that of humans. Because now Mu Yinghai was waiting for them in the Taoist temple. Of course, he also served as the Monster Director, responsible for the management of the monsters in this area.
When Yuan Jing finally returned to Liuzhuang, all the young and old in Liuzhuang came out to welcome his return. Yuan Jing and his master had not been in the Taoist temple in the past few years. Although villagers often went up the mountain to clean the temple, they felt that something was missing. Now that the young Taoist priest was back, they felt at ease.
When they returned to the mountain, they saw that the Taoist temple had become the territory of monsters. Not only Mu Yinghai, but also Hu Yue, Xiong Zhuang and others were there. Before Yuan Jing came back, the old Taoist priest had passed the Taoist temple to him. That was to say, Yuan Jing was now the abbot of Liuzhuang Taoist Temple, and he was in charge of all matters in the temple. So Yuan Jing was very straightforward and invited everyone who was willing to join the Taoist temple to come in, and they were all happy.
Many years later, Liuzhuang Taoist Temple became a prestigious Taoist temple in the entire Zhou Dynasty. Countless disciples wanted to join the temple, but unfortunately, the abbot Yuanjing set a threshold himself. Only those who could pass the test and were devoted to Taoism or monsters could join the temple. Although the threshold was getting higher and higher, it still couldn't stop the yearning of many people and monsters who were seeking Taoism.
Although he inherited the Taoist temple, Yuan Jing still liked to travel with Funeng every once in a while. During the travels, he would take tasks to check whether the management departments such as the Demon Department and Ghost Department in various places were doing their job. Whenever they went out to travel, the capital was a place they had to pass through. When passing by the capital, Yuan Jing would go to the palace to visit the emperor. The emperor married the queen, and the first prince born was made the crown prince by him. He personally educated him and let him know how hard it was for the Great Zhou Dynasty to be what it is today.
The Great Zhou Dynasty, which was on the verge of extinction, has been recovering slowly and showing signs of growth as everyone has worked together over the years. However, the emperor dared not slack off as the lesson of the previous emperor was too painful, and the entire royal family was almost destroyed by the Ling Xiao demon.
They also kept in touch with Ji Jinghuai and met with him every time they returned to the capital.
Ji Jinghuai lived a very leisurely life. He was an official of the imperial court in charge of the affairs of the Xiujie Alliance. In his spare time, he also started writing storybooks. He didn't expect that he could not stop writing. By the time his children grew up to his age, Ji Jinghuai had already become a famous storybook writer in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The stories he wrote about mountain spirits and ghosts were especially popular with the public, and he did a better job than his main job.
Ji Jinghuai was in high spirits and lived a happy life. When he saw Yuan Jing and Funeng, he excitedly told them how popular his new storybook was. He even specially left two copies for Yuan Jing and Funeng. You see, he was always thinking about them.
"Oh, by the way, there is one thing you may not know. The general's mansion and the Liu's mansion, both had accidents and their houses were ransacked. No one died, but they were all exiled. When the general was driven out of the mansion, he sent me a letter, asking me to contact Brother Mu. I refused. I won't be a bad guy." He knew long ago that Mu Yinghai had no attachment to his biological father. Since he didn't recognize him at the beginning, he wanted to recognize his son back now that he was down and out? What a dream.
"The two of them have done a lot of things that are frustrating. In the past few years, His Majesty was more tolerant of the General's Mansion for the sake of Brother Mu, but they were so unrestrained that they finally angered His Majesty and he drove them out of the capital."
Funeng smiled and said, "Mu Yinghai will definitely be very happy if he knows this."
Ji Jinghuai twitched his lips. Couldn't he be more subtle? Even though he also felt that Mu Yinghai would be very happy, just like his elder brother was finally caught by him for colluding with the evil spirits to harm him, and finally his elder brother was driven out of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, he was also very happy.
The last time Yuan Jing came to the capital was when he calculated that the emperor was about to die, and he came to see his uncle off. Before leaving, the emperor only talked to Yuan Jing about his family, and did not ask Yuan Jing to protect the Great Zhou Dynasty. If the descendants are not up to the task, the good fortune that the Great Zhou Dynasty had finally regained would really be gone.
The emperor said: "If there is a next life, I will not be an emperor anymore. I will become a Taoist priest with you, Yuan Jing."
After saying this, the emperor left with a smile. The princes and grandchildren below burst into tears. Yuan Jing and Funeng watched with their own eyes as the emperor's soul left his body and was invited into the underworld by the ghost messengers. The emperor had great merits, so whether he stayed in the underworld or was reincarnated, there would be a good result.
After waving goodbye to the emperor, Yuan Jing and Funeng also left without attending the new emperor's coronation ceremony. Many years have passed, and he and Funeng have always maintained their appearance of being in their twenties, which makes the dragon's sons and grandsons envious. It's a pity that once they are related to the imperial power, they cannot practice Taoism unless they can give up everything.
However, Ji Jinghuai, after seeing his wife off and handing over the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion to his son, patted his butt and ran off to the Liuzhuang Taoist Temple, not to practice Taoism, but just to live a quiet life for a few years.
Another hundred years passed before Yuan Jing and Funeng saw the old Taoist off. Because of the elixir Yuan Jing brought back, the old Taoist's cultivation, which had been stuck for many years, finally broke through, so his life span was also extended. Looking at his disciples surrounding the bed, his gaze finally fell on his most beloved disciple Yuan Jing, who was still young. He looked at Funeng again and left with a satisfied smile.
Afterwards, Yuan Jing passed the position of abbot to one of his disciples and left Liuzhuang Taoist Temple again. He never came back, but various legends were often reported back to the temple.
No one knows how many years Taoist Yuan Jing and his Taoist partner Master Funeng lived. After countless years, many people still believe that they both became immortals and went to another world, leaving behind countless legends about them in this world.
***
Yuan Jing and Funeng lived together for more than 600 years. In the end, the two left this world hand in hand. Before leaving, Funeng kissed Yuan Jing on the cheek, his eyes clear: "In the next life, I will find you again."
Yuan Jingyou was surprised and said with a smile: "Okay, if you don't come to me, I will go to you."
In the end, both of their bodies turned into points of light and completely disappeared from this world.
Returning to the system space, Yuan Jing still had a smile in his eyes. He knew that at the last moment, Fu had revived some of his memories. Although he didn't know how many lives he remembered, Yuan Jing was still very happy. Maybe in one of these lives, his lover would be able to remember everything they had experienced.
Looking at the system in front of him, Yuan Jing asked, "Is the previous world improving? I thought that world would enter the Dharma Ending Age after a thousand years, but when we left, the spiritual energy in that world was much richer than when we first entered."
System 52: "Host, you guessed correctly. That world is ascending, so the world consciousness not only bestows merit upon the host, but also has other gifts. According to the original development, it will indeed enter the Dharma Ending Age."
Yuan Jing was not unhappy to receive good things. He said, "Count the points, check the personal information. By the way, can the Sky Eye be permanently bound?"
"Okay, host."
"Yes, host, but five hundred points will be deducted."
"Go ahead." Yuan Jing has plenty of points now. He spends 500 points to get a pair of permanently bound Sky Eyes, which he thinks will be very useful.
"Ding! The host helps the master avoid death and prolong his life, promotes Liuzhuang Taoist Temple, and completes the life of the original body. The reward points are 1500. The host finds out the original body's life experience, clears the grievances of the original body's parents, and makes the enemy get the punishment they deserve. The host is rewarded with 1500 points."
Personal Information:
Name: Yuan Jing
Points: 15000+1500+1500-500
Soul power: 1143+100
Skills: Poison ability (elementary) (Note: needs to be activated), medical skills (entry level ++), pharmacy skills (elementary), alchemy skills (beginner), talisman skills (elementary), formation skills (elementary), heavenly eye (permanently bound)
Merit: 3365000+1000000
Items: One Lingquan Pearl (permanently bound to the soul), portable cultivation space (fused with Lingquan Pearl), medium storage space, one Taobao Mall (unbound), one primary spiritual vein (gift from the orc primitive world consciousness), spiritual heart (gift from the ancient spiritual world consciousness)
Yuan Jing took out the psychic heart given by the world consciousness and found that it was just a piece of stone, but the stone seemed to have vitality. Yuan Jing asked the system: "Xiao Wu, how do I use this psychic heart? What spirit can it communicate with?"
System 529: "After binding with the host, the host can communicate with all things."
Yuan Jing thought about how he got along with the fairies in the previous world. Could it be that the world consciousness saw that he had a good relationship with the fairies, so it specially gave him this spiritual heart? Could it be that the world consciousness in the previous world did not want these fairies to disappear, and had a preference for animals with spiritual intelligence?
Regardless of whether it was true or not, Yuan Jing felt that this was a very useful cheat code, so he said, "Bind it."
The stone disappeared in his hand and merged into his soul. He felt as if there was something extra.
"Xiao Wu, teleport to the next world."
"Okay, host."
***
Huaguo, Yanjia Village.
As soon as Yuan Jing woke up, he heard an argument outside, and his head was dizzy. He knew his body was a little feverish when he touched it. Fortunately, the situation was not serious, so he looked for medicine in the space while listening to the sounds outside. He also asked the system to transmit his original body's memories and plot to him. He was doing several things at the same time, but now his soul power was strong enough and it did not cause him much burden.
In the main hall outside, the old man of the Yan family was staring at his son with an unhappy face: "Why don't you agree? That's your nephew, your real nephew, who is going to take care of you in your old age and see you to the grave. Now your nephew is getting married, and you, his real uncle, are just watching and not helping? Do you act like an uncle? Do you still want your real nephew to take care of you in your old age and see you to the grave?"
The voice of the person next to him was even sharper and more harsh: "Second brother, what's the point of raising a money-loser? In the end, isn't it going to be given to someone else? Second brother, you would rather spend the money on money-loser than on your nephew, right? Your nephew is the root of the Yan family, are you going to piss your father off to death? You unfilial thing, second brother, did you ask the second brother to do this? You are a waste who can't give birth to a son, how dare you ruin the good things of my Yan family?"
Yan Changjiang couldn't listen any more, and before his husband was about to be beaten, he said, "Dad, you don't need to say anything more. This is my own decision. The money is for Jing'er to study. You also said that he is my nephew, and his biological father is taking care of him. Why should I, his uncle, worry about him? As for marrying a husband, you should marry the kind of husband that suits your means. Why do you have to pay so much for a dowry to marry someone from the city? If he is capable, he can marry him himself."
The old man was furious: "Why did you spend so much money to accompany a boy? After the boy finishes his studies, he will still marry someone else? Can he still take care of you in your old age?"
"Why not? If it really doesn't work, I'll let my brother find a son-in-law. Besides, society is different now, and that kind of thing doesn't work at all. If Jing dares not to provide for my husband and me in our old age, I can sue him. Besides, Jing is not that kind of person. I raised my brother since he was a child, how could I not know his character?"
On the contrary, he knew exactly what kind of person his nephew was. Expecting him to take care of him in his old age? Pah! He really wanted him to die soon.
"How dare you disobey us?"
Yan Changjiang stiffened his neck and refused to listen.
"You are being unfilial. It is unfilial to dare not listen to us."
"I've never heard of not giving money to my nephew to marry being considered unfilial. If you are truly unfilial, go to the government and sue me."
The old couple were so angry that they almost fainted. The old man threatened: "I'll see how you will beg your nephew in the future!"
Yan Lao Er did not provoke the two elders again. Begging for help from his nephew? Dream on. Never expect this day to come. It is a good thing that the eldest brother's family does not suck their blood. Do they really think he is a fool?
The old couple left in a huff. Yuan Jing, who was lying on the bed in the room, turned over, turned his back to the door, and raised the corners of his mouth. It was great. Although his original body had some terrible relatives, his parents were good people. There was no need for Yuan Jing to personally fight against these terrible relatives. His parents could solve the problem.
The couple outside were actually quite angry at the attitude of the second elders and the eldest brother's family. After calming down, they were worried that their brother would be woken up, so they opened the door and looked around quietly, then retreated: "Fortunately Yuan Jing was not woken up. Really, Yuan Jing is still sick, and they come to make a fuss like this."
In the room, Yuan Jing, who was pretending to be asleep, was looking through his memories and the plot. His original surname was Yan and his given name was Yuan Jing, and his gender was Ge'er. Yes, after being reincarnated as a twin in a certain world, he was reincarnated as a special gender, Ge'er. Moreover, there are only two genders in this world, men and Ge'er. This is a world composed of men and Ge'er.
Fortunately, I have the memories of my original body, so it is not difficult to accept it. Otherwise, I would not be used to it.
It was really laughable for him to think that he, a man, was called a money-loser one day.
The original body is seventeen years old this year and is in the third year of high school. The grades are quite good. The teachers all say that as long as I perform normally, I will definitely be admitted to university. The original body's father and uncle are proud of them. However, in the eyes of my grandfather and grandmother, the original body is a money-loser. The eldest sister gave birth to two sons, who are the roots of the Yan family. In the future, the Yan family will rely on the eldest sister's sons to carry on the family line, so they wish to take all the money earned by the second sister's family and use it on the eldest sister's sons.
Look, Yan Yuanjing's second cousin Yan Jiagen is getting married. He has high standards and has set his sights on a young man from the town. Unfortunately, the gift he wants is too high and his uncle's family simply cannot afford it. So they turn to Yuanjing's family, hoping to ask Yan Laoer to help pay for the gift.
Yuan Jing was speechless. The old era had long gone, and now was the 1980s of the new society of reform and opening up, but they still insisted on the old ways and wanted their whole family to work like slaves for their uncle's family. Before, they had always prevented Yan Changjiang from sending the original body to school, and asked Yan Changjiang to find a husband for the original body as soon as possible so that he could get a betrothal gift and find a good marriage for Yan Jiagen and Yan Jiabao from the old family in the future.
My parents withstood the pressure and firmly supported me in my studies. I did not disappoint their expectations and was successfully admitted to a top university in China. I became the pride of the entire Yanjia Village. According to normal development, when I graduate from university, I will definitely live a happy and fulfilling life with my parents.
But if that were the case, Yuan Jing would not have come. The tragedy began after the original body was admitted to university and went to the imperial capital. Even the original body was confused until his death, not knowing why he ended up like this and even implicated his parents who held him in their hands.
In the first year of college, the original body met a man and was entangled with him. The man was too self-righteous and thought that anyone he liked would fall in love with him. Unfortunately, the original body only wanted to study hard, get a good job in the future, and bring his parents out of the countryside, so that his uncle's family and grandparents could have a good look at whether this money-loser like him was really useful.
Unfortunately, his refusal was of no use. He was considered by the other party and the people around him to be playing hard to get. People around him began to trip him up, and nothing he could do went smoothly. Finally, his roommate accused him of stealing his roommate's property. No one believed his innocence. At this time, the man stood up and told the original body that as long as the original body agreed to date him, he would help the original body solve the problem. The original body refused to agree, and the result of gritting his teeth and persisting to the end was that he was expelled from the school for moral misconduct.
The original body's parents rushed over from home. They also believed that the child they raised was not such a person, but they turned for help everywhere but to no one. Finally, they were hit by a truck and died on the spot. The original body was tied up by a group of people. They were human traffickers who wanted to sell the original body into the mountains. The original body struggled to escape on the way, but ended up dying together with the human traffickers in the car. The car drove off the mountain road, fell off the cliff, and the car was destroyed and the people on the car died.
Yuan Jing looked through the original body's memories carefully. Those things were indeed very inexplicable. The people around him seemed to be possessed by evil spirits. The original body's family died too tragically.
Looking through the plot, it was not beyond Yuan Jing's expectation that the man was indeed the protagonist. He was reborn, only because he was the secret admirer of the original body before his rebirth. After his rebirth, he relied on the prophet to get rich before others, and he thought he had the capital to pursue the original body.
When the original body died, the male protagonist got drunk out of grief. If he hadn't slept with another guy after being drunk, Yuan Jing would have really thought that he was sad about the death of the original body. But although he was sad, it didn't stop him from having sex with others.
The plot does not explain why the original body encountered so much hostility. This is not normal at all, including the death of the original body's parents and the original body being caught by human traffickers. These events revealed an unusualness, but were regarded as accidents by the male protagonist who was thought to love the original body deeply. He missed the original body for a while with his buddy and came to the conclusion that the original body was not blessed, and then continued his way to make a fortune.
When Yuan Jing saw these plots, he almost thought that the male protagonist's rise to wealth was accompanied by his journey to build a harem of studs. Wasn't this just like the interstellar world he had experienced before? But strangely, the plot got stuck here. This was the first time Yuan Jing encountered such a strange thing.
