Chapter 123 Fuyao Temple



"You can take it first. Contact me when you make money to buy it." He lowered his eyes and looked nonchalant, but in his heart he thought that this person was okay and not the kind of person who only knew how to take advantage of others.

As he said that, he asked Li Yirou to bind the communication jade slip and leave a spiritual imprint with him.

"Fellow Daoist, I really don't know how to thank you. I will go to the statue of the goddess in a while and pray for you." Li Yiru thanked him sincerely, like a simple monk who had never seen the world.

The other party nodded and smiled kindly, feeling happy about helping others and gaining a sense of value, and then started the next test.

He put three medium-grade spirit stones into the formation, and then the formation plate with several formations on it opened again.

Awesome! Just one test, and one person has to spend three mid-grade spirit stones. This would never happen in the Yijian Sect. Big cities are just different.

This time, Li Yirou didn't try to give anything to the other party. In her opinion, the larger the place, the clearer the rules. As an ordinary cultivator, she didn't need to deal with the social etiquette of favors.

This is even more of the sense of boundaries of a metropolitan city. People only need to manage themselves and abide by the corresponding rules. As long as you can have your own position and have a certain value, you can live a normal life.

It was a pity that she hadn't given any small items with spiritual power to the people in the Yijian Sect before, and she didn't understand the other party and couldn't cater to their needs, so she didn't achieve her goal of making things go more smoothly.

But that was just the thoughts of ordinary outer disciples, bored and neither up nor down, who wanted to embarrass disciples of lower status. The inner disciples of the Yijian Sect, on the other hand, were more self-centered and didn't waste too much time on interpersonal relationships, focusing solely on managing relationships with their master, fellow disciples, and teammates.

After all, they only needed to improve their own strength to obtain more resources, so there was no need to waste their energy. Although they didn't deliberately make things difficult for them, they had a sense of superiority and disdain for the lower-level cultivators.

But it’s better this way. No one cares about her. The impression she gives to everyone is just one word: waste. So there will never be someone like Han Yuzhen who accidentally discovers the secret of her space.

At most, a few people in the Feihong team knew that her spiritual awareness was powerful, but this was exposed by Han Yuzhen's pursuit order, so it didn't matter.

Li Yirou observed and studied the communication jade slip. There were a few small characters "Wuji" engraved on it. The four characters "Communication Jade Slip" were a circle smaller than Wuji.

When Li Yirou was branded, she left behind the name she had obtained, [Fang Ye]. In the communication jade slip, there was only the only contact person she had just added, [Wuji Palace Recruitment - Yang Qing]. His name was Yang Qing. Li Yirou wrote down the name.

If she could do what she said, she would do it. As for praying, she thought, she could just kneel on the futon and chant a few words. The other party lent her a communication jade slip, which looked like a low-grade magical instrument, with 49 additional empty slots for contacts to be added. Such generosity, worthy of a prayer.

Li Yirou took the spirit ladder back the same way. On the way here, she had seen some signs for renting and selling caves, but she wanted to go to the goddess statue to see if she could learn more about the real life of the lower class here.

After descending the spirit ladder, the smell of burning incense and the sound of swinging wind chimes came from the front. Even in the bustling capital, the sound was clearly heard by Li Yiru.

She subconsciously walked in one direction, and after about a hundred meters, she saw an extremely narrow Taoist temple archway with the three words "Fuyao Temple" written on it.

As they entered the archway, they saw a cultivator wearing the same clothing as the disciples of Wuji Palace guarding the door. She was not very old, about the same age as the one Li Yirou transformed into, about 15 or 16 years old, but her clothes were white.

[Incense: 1 spirit bead, 3 sticks. Sincerity is the key, and the goddess will bless those destined to receive it.] It was a very cheap price. Li Yirou handed over 1 spirit bead, took 3 incense sticks, turned around, took 3 steps, and arrived in front of a statue.

In front of her, a white-haired male cultivator was burning incense. After lighting the incense on the red candle beside him, the fragrant mist drifted upward. He knelt on the cushion in front of him and bowed. Then he heard the disciple on duty say, "Go in."

While the man was burning incense, Li Yirou looked around. The ground around her was paved with bricks and stones, nothing special. Only the statue of the goddess Fuyao was carved from white jade. It was about the same size as an adult woman, but very beautiful.

Her appearance is worthy of the phrase "Never before seen in ancient times, never seen in the world, with a magnificent appearance that is beyond praise", and her expression also shows compassion for the world.

However, the statues of gods will certainly not be too realistic. For example, Bao Zheng, the Bao Qingtian, may not be really that evil. He was born with a crescent mark on his forehead. It’s just that later generations added some mysterious colors to highlight his extraordinaryness.

This burning incense was probably just a formality, providing a place for the homeless to rest. Li Yirou knew how the incense wouldn't light unless it got damp. The only possible explanation was that the person had been unlucky and had stumbled upon this.

When Li Yiru saw the man come in, she also imitated him and lit the incense in her hand. The three incense sticks immediately emitted smoke. She also inserted them into the incense burner in front of the goddess statue, knelt on the mat, and bowed three times with an extremely pious look.

[Goddess, please bless me. I will practice diligently. Please lend me some luck and help me succeed in my revenge. By the way, please bless Yang Qing, the kindhearted man who lent me the jade slip. He is a good man.]

The incense mist was originally rising, but after Li Yiru bowed for the third time, it was as if a purifier was installed on her face, and all the incense, including the incense that others had offered to her, floated towards her and was inhaled by her to the point where her mouth and lungs were full.

Li Yirou stood up and retreated, but the smoke continued to pursue her. Was this a foreboding omen? Li Yirou had been praying for revenge, but she hadn't expected to be pursued by the goddess's incense.

Her heart sank, but fortunately she didn't have that bad feeling. However, this unusual scene still made her feel a little uncomfortable.

The disciples on duty were always bored. They rarely saw the incense fail to light. Instead, they would get a little excited at that time. They would look the person up and down, as if they could really tell that the person was not a good person, with a hint of cunning between his eyebrows. Then they would usually politely ask the person to leave.

But this time it was a little unusual. It wasn't that the incense couldn't be lit, but the smoke didn't rise straight up as they had requested to observe!

You know, the Goddess Temple is sheltered from the wind, so at most the smoke would just sway around for a few times before rising into the air again. She had never seen it fly towards a person's face.

Did the goddess appear again, and was so angry at the young man that she wanted to drive him away?
