Chapter 514 Extra: Master Shanhui Suffers Backlash
Xie Hanchuan put aside his personal grudges against Master Shanhui, gave Lin Luoxi a brief instruction, and then quickly left.
Lin Luoxi knew what Xie Hanchuan had gone to do, and then glanced at the sleeping Master Shanhui.
After thinking for a moment, he walked to the table, poured out the spiritual water from his space, went to the bedside, and fed it to Master Shanhui spoonful by spoonful.
Nourished by the spiritual water of the space, Master Shanhui, whose face was pale, finally regained some color, but it was not enough to wake him up immediately.
With its eyes closed, it no longer had the calculating and deep look I usually saw; it even looked rather docile.
"Just how much heavenly secret did I reveal that caused such a severe backlash from you, you old fox?" Lin Luoxi sat by Master Shanhui's bedside, looking at Master Shanhui's extremely broken face, and murmured to herself curiously.
The wait for Master Shanhui to wake up was too long, so Lin Luoxi simply took out her own pots and pans and started cooking in Master Shanhui's courtyard.
Although monks are not supposed to eat meat, she wasn't a monk, so she simply prepared a steamed seafood feast.
Sitting in the courtyard, enjoying seafood while admiring the beautiful sunset.
As for Xiao Jingchen, they are all adults now, and he is even the emperor of a country. I believe that the Protectorate Temple will not let them go hungry.
"You heartless little brat, there's good food, and you're hiding here eating it all by yourself..." Master Shanhui, who had already woken up, looked at the empty room, a look of loneliness flashing in his eyes.
But when he heard a smacking sound coming from the yard, he forced himself to come out and see what was going on, and laughed in exasperation.
That heartless girl, he's in this state, and she can still eat.
"Master, these are all meat dishes, you can't eat them..." Lin Luoxi was almost choked by Master Shanhui's words. Seeing that the other party was injured, Lin Luoxi's tone was not so harsh.
"It's alright, I'm injured and need to eat something good to replenish myself." Master Shanhui waved his robe, calmly sat down in front of Lin Luoxi, picked up a lobster thicker than his arm, skillfully peeled it, and started eating.
"Master, judging from your movements, you don't seem like someone who's eating lobster for the first time!" Lin Luoxi looked at the courtyard gate, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the gate was closed.
"Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha remains in the heart. As long as one's heart is sincere, Buddha will not blame one..." Master Shanhui said vaguely.
“Master, you are so skilled, why don’t you return to secular life and I’ll take you to see all the world’s delicacies? How about that?” Lin Luoxi glanced at Master Shanhui, who was engrossed in eating, and suggested.
Being a renowned master is certainly good, but revealing too many secrets will eventually backfire on you.
He's been a master for so many years; it's time for him to live for himself.
"Fine, if you could come to Huguo Temple more often, so that this poor man can have a decent meal, that would be enough..."
Master Shanhui paused in his eating. He hadn't expected Lin Luoxi to say that, but considering his fate, he refused her suggestion.
"Whatever!" Lin Luoxi thought that Master Shanhui was reluctant to give up his reputation, and in a fit of pique, she stopped paying attention to Master Shanhui.
"Are you worried about me?" Master Shanhui finished the lobster in his hand, and when he looked up, he realized that Lin Luoxi hadn't said a word for a long time.
"Tch, who cares about you? Only someone with a screw loose would worry about someone who's always trying to swindle her out of her money."
“Hehe…” Master Shanhui saw Lin Luoxi’s red eyes but did not point it out and continued to eat.
I don’t know if it was because Master Shanhui was injured, but he was able to eat so much. There was a pile of seafood shells in front of him.
Fortunately, Lin Luoxi made a decent amount of seafood in a dry pot, otherwise it really wouldn't have been enough for the two of them.
After dinner, Lin Luoxi saw that Master Shanhui's complexion had returned to normal. She left him a small bottle of pills to help him recover and then went to sleep next door.
Since she donated so much gold last time, Master Shanhui has reserved a special room for Lin Luoxi and personally cleans it every day.
As Lin Luoxi lay on the large bed filled with the scent of gardenias, she remembered how Master Shanhui had tricked her.
Returning to Master Shanhui's room, they found him changing his clothes.
"Ah! Don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't look at what you shouldn't see..." Lin Luoxi was caught off guard and saw Master Shanhui with his upper body exposed. She quickly covered her eyes with her hands and retreated.
However, Lin Luoxi remembered that she had just seen Master Shanhui's back covered with bulging blue veins, which looked rather frightening.
Hearing Lin Luoxi's exclamation, Master Shanhui smiled, but quickly put on his clothes and went out.
"Are those bulging veins on your back a backlash for revealing a secret?" Lin Luoxi asked curiously as she saw the Chamber of Commerce building staff dressed and coming out.
"Yes!" Master Shanhui admitted without any concealment, his expression indifferent, as if he were not the one suffering the backlash.
"Are you feeling unwell anywhere?" The veins on your back are bulging and twisted in an odd way; it must be very uncomfortable!
"It's alright, I'm used to it." Master Shanhui clenched his fist when he heard Lin Luoxi's concerned tone, then relaxed it, and his expression became nonchalant again, as if no one could enter his heart.
"I'll say it again: you should return to secular life!"
"If you return to secular life and enjoy the good food and drink with us, you might live longer."
Otherwise, given his condition, he probably doesn't have many years left to live.
"How long one lives is already arranged by Heaven..." Master Shanhui's smile, illuminated by the candlelight, seemed so...
"I can't be bothered with you." Lin Luoxi felt inexplicably sad looking at Master Shanhui like this.
With a wave of her hand, she placed twice the amount of gold that Master Shanhui needed inside the room, then turned and went back to her room, pulled up the covers, and buried herself in sleep.
The next day.
Lin Luoxi ate a seafood porridge for Master Shanhui, which made her feel full and satisfied.
"Whoosh..." Before they even reached Huguo Temple, heavy snow began to fall from the sky.
"It's snowing?" Looking at the heavy snowfall, Lin Luoxi felt uneasy for some reason.
Seeing that no one was around, he slipped into the space.
Looking at the hundred acres of ripe rice, dozens of acres of wheat, more than ten acres of sweet potatoes, several warehouses of grain, and trees on several hills in the space, Lin Luoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When she rode the white tiger back to the princess's residence, the snow on the road had already reached her knees.
The streets of the capital were now completely deserted, probably because it was too cold and snowing, so people were staying indoors by the fire.
"Your Highness, the Emperor requests your presence..." Lin Luoxi hadn't even had a chance to rest after returning to the princess's residence when Eunuch Fu from the palace rushed over to invite her into the palace.
