Chapter 345 Encountering Master Shanhui, this scoundrel, again at Huguo Temple
Especially after hearing that Lin Lingtian had found his long-lost son, the people were very curious about who this son of the War King was.
Before them, the massive procession, led by Lin Lingtian on a tall horse, drew the crowd's necks, eager to see the people inside the carriages…
The scene was spectacular; even the old emperor's tour probably didn't cause such a sensation. No wonder the old emperor was so wary of Lin Lingtian.
Knowing that Lin Lingtian was taking his family to Huguo Temple to worship Buddha and enjoy the scenery, the gossipy commoners actually followed them all the way.
Wow, that young woman is so beautiful. I wonder if she's married yet?
The common people who had followed along the way all focused their attention on Lin Luoxi when they saw her and Lin Wangshi get off the carriage.
"Brother Hanchuan, come here..." Lin Luoxi heard the people's discussion and quickly waved to Xie Hanchuan.
When Xie Hanchuan came over, she affectionately put her arm around his hand and walked forward with a sweet expression.
Seeing that Lin Luoxi already had a husband, the common people stopped trying to find out about Lin Luoxi's marital history and instead started looking at the others.
When the people saw Li Muqing in the crowd, she immediately became the subject of their conversation.
It's unclear whether Lin Wenqian sensed Li Muqing's feelings for him, but upon hearing people discussing Li Muqing's tragic past, he instinctively shielded her behind him, blocking the onlookers' gazes.
Hiding behind Lin Wenqing, Li Muqing saw Lin Wenqian's subconscious action and smiled happily.
When Lin Wenqian looked over, she still had to pretend to be an innocent victim, looking pitiful, which further aroused Lin Wenqian's protective instincts.
"My God, why are there stairs again?" Lin Luoxi sighed helplessly as she looked at the endless staircase.
Does every temple have to have so many steps? Only by climbing these steps can one show that they are truly worshipping Buddha?
Despite her inner complaints, Lin Luoxi obediently followed the group and began climbing the steps.
Having learned from her previous experience of being tricked by Master Shanhui, Lin Luoxi did not intend to be the first to stick her neck out this time. Instead, she slowly followed the others and climbed to the top of Huguo Temple.
After reaching the Huguo Temple, they did not separate from the others, but followed behind Lin Lingtian, listening to his explanations as they explored the temple.
At noon, we ate a very sumptuous vegetarian meal at Huguo Temple.
"Master, our master invites you..."
Just as Lin Luoxi thought she had escaped today's calamity and was enjoying a delicious vegetarian meal at Huguo Temple,
A nobody walked up to him, put his hands together, and politely invited Lin Luoxi.
"Pfft~" Lin Luoxi almost spat out the tofu pudding she had just eaten.
"You mean you're inviting me?" Lin Luoxi looked around. With the old princess accompanying her, she assumed the little monk was talking to the old princess and didn't pay any attention, continuing to stuff vegetarian food into her mouth.
“This benefactor need not look any further. My master simply wishes to speak with you privately for a few moments.”
Little Shrimp was amused by Lin Luoxi's actions, but in front of Buddha, he still kept a straight face and spoke to Lin Luoxi in a serious manner.
"You really are calling me." Lin Ruoxi looked at the little shrimp in front of him with a forced smile, and he almost cursed inwardly.
Hopefully, the masters at Huguo Temple won't try to scam her like Master Shanhui did.
“It is indeed the benefactor.” The young novice was puzzled. He usually stood in front of other worshippers who came to offer incense and said that the master wanted to say a few words to them, and those worshippers were all extremely excited.
Why is it that when this girl hears him say that the master in the temple has something to say to them, she looks like she's going to the execution ground, with a deathly expression?
This young novice monk probably doesn't know that Lin Luoxi has been bitten by a snake once and is now afraid of ropes for ten years.
Having been swindled out of several thousand kilograms of gold by Master Shanhui, she now feels a conditioned reflex of resistance whenever she hears the word "master."
However, the old princess beside her had no idea that the golden Buddha in Fuze Temple in Black Rock Town was made from gold donated by Lin Luoxi, and it didn't just appear out of thin air.
Upon hearing that it was a master from Huguo Temple looking for Lin Luoxi, he excitedly pulled Lin Luoxi up, wanting her to seize this opportunity and go quickly.
This is a rare opportunity. Not just anyone can meet the master of Huguo Temple. Even members of the royal family might not be able to see him.
Not to mention the old princess was excited, even a prince like Lin Lingtian was extremely excited when he heard that the master of Huguo Temple was looking for Lin Luoxi.
Everyone was thinking that it was only because of his outstanding granddaughter that the master had taken a liking to her, which was why he had sent someone to invite Lin Luoxi.
Seeing that Lin Luoxi was still in a daze, they all told her to get up and go see the mysterious master.
"Benefactor, please follow me!" Despite having many doubts, the young novice monk led the way for Lin Luoxi.
"Wait, what's the name of this master you're talking about?" He doesn't even have a Dharma name. Could he be another fake master trying to scam her?
Lin Ruoxi looked at the young monk and the old princess with a wary expression, determined to get the monk to reveal the master's Dharma name. If they couldn't give a clear answer, she would definitely not go.
"Our master's Dharma name is Master Shanhui, this is common knowledge, right?" This time, it was the young novice's turn to fall into self-doubt.
The master they received from their temple is so famous, how could this girl not know him?
"What? Master Shanhui? Is your Master Shanhui the same Master Shanhui from Fuze Temple?" Damn it, hearing this Dharma name made Lin Luoxi's scalp tingle, and she wanted to go even less.
“Young lady, you know our Master Shanhui? Our Master Shanhui has been traveling for many years and has only just returned.” The young novice monk finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Luoxi’s excited expression.
He said, "Our temple's Master Shanhui is so famous, how could no one know his Dharma name?"
"Young Master, I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well. I'd better not go see Master Shanhui, lest I pass on my illness to him..."
In order to avoid seeing Master Shanhui, Lin Luoxi pretended to be unwell and wanted to leave first.
"Benefactor Lin, you're sick? I happen to know a little medicine. Come, let me treat you..." Master Shanhui probably knew that the young novice monk couldn't get Lin Luoxi to come over, so he came to the dining hall to block her in person.
"Hehe, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here, Master. You're getting more and more beautiful..." Lin Luoxi chuckled twice when she saw Master Shanhui standing at the entrance of the meditation room.
She couldn't help but roar in her heart in frustration: This bald monk must be addicted to ripping her off. Out of so many people in the world, he just picks on her and keeps ripping her off.
