Chapter 208 Taoist Priest
Chapter 208 Taoist Priest
Lin Liuyi finally got a break, but the system kept urging him to continue writing new stories.
"Get rich, what do you think I should write?" Lin Liuyi was at a loss for words.
As a novelist, she seems to be constantly experiencing writer's block. *sigh*
"Host, you can write anything." It can distribute it anyway.
Lin Liuyi was exasperated. Was this a matter of distribution or not? She just wanted to attract more readers, and now that she had readers from various worlds, Lin Liuyi found it quite interesting.
"I've got it!" These past few days she's been complaining to Daiyu about Tang Sanzang, so why not write about Buddhism? Back in the day, Buddhists were quite popular in the Beijing circle!
She excitedly turned on her computer and her fingers flew across the keyboard.
The Buddhist nun from the Beijing circle clutched her prayer beads, her eyes reddening, but she asked fiercely, "Man, are you sure you want to go with him?"
Ugh, I feel like I wrote a bit of a domineering CEO story. Oh well, I'll leave it at that.
After Lin Liuyi finished writing, the system dutifully distributed it.
In a certain world, Daoxuan was performing his morning prayers when he discovered a glowing book appearing before him.
"This? Could it be that the patriarch has given some instructions?" Dao Xuan's eyes widened.
He shakily opened the book. What is this? How come it involves Buddhist disciples? Wasn't this a book given by the Patriarch?
Tsk tsk, the Buddhist monk actually likes men, and he hasn't even managed to steal another man yet. He said those old bald monks were no good, outwardly respectable but inwardly so filthy. Dao Xuan couldn't stop watching.
However, after reading it, he realized that this thing definitely wasn't given by the founder.
However, seeing the reward, Dao Xuan still solemnly placed the offering in front of the book. In a flash, the offering disappeared, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Liuyi received a system notification that a reader had given him a reward.
"Why do these fruits and pastries look so familiar?" Lin Liuyi looked at the plate in his hand.
"I remember now! Fortune! Doesn't this look like an offering?" With that thought, she immediately put the things down. Could it be a ghost with offerings?
Lin Liuyi shakily connected with the other party, and was immediately relieved when he saw a Taoist priest appear on the other side. However, he wondered why the Taoist priest was kneeling.
After Dao Xuan finished his morning prayers and breakfast, he was about to tidy up his room when he found himself receiving an invitation.
After he made the selection, he thought he would see the ancestral master. He even prepared the posture of kowtowing, but a little girl appeared on the other side.
"Taoist Master?"
"Grandmaster...Mother?"
Lin Liuyi: ?
Lin Liuyi quickly offered an explanation. After listening to the explanation, Dao Xuan pretended to be nonchalant, stood up, dusted off his clothes, and transformed back into his otherworldly and dignified demeanor.
"So you're from another world, young friend!" Dao Xuan said casually, but he was also excited. He never expected that he, Dao Xuan, would have this kind of luck.
Lin Liuyi nodded quickly and introduced him to the friends in the group.
"What! There are cultivators in the group? And a golden dragon? And immortals!" Dao Xuan's eyes widened as he listened. Lin Liuyi must be his ancestor, otherwise how could she have gathered all these people together?
Lin Liuyi originally wanted to ask the other party if he was willing to go in, but seeing Dao Xuan's eager eyes, well then what was there to wait for? Lin Liuyi immediately pulled him in.
After Dao Xuan entered the group chat, Lin Liuyi introduced him, and everyone welcomed him.
Grandma Liu couldn't hold back any longer. She goes to the Taoist temple to pray on the first and fifteenth of every month. When she saw a real Taoist priest in the group, she immediately asked, "Taoist priest, last month I drew a lot at the Taoist temple and got a very bad one. What should I do?" Grandma Liu wanted to ask if there was any way to resolve this.
"Then just draw it again!" Dao Xuan quickly chimed in.
Grandma Liu: Huh?
Isn't that how it is? Dao Xuan wondered. He had seen believers in the Taoist temple who were unhappy after drawing lots, so he made them draw again until they got a satisfactory one.
Princess Mingyue also joined in the fun: "Daoist Master, if I curse someone or say bad things about someone, wouldn't I be creating negative karma through speech?"
Princess Mingyue remembered that this was what they said in the ancient book they restored.
"Creating negative karma through speech? What negative karma through speech? This means you are her retribution!" Dao Xuan denied it outright.
"Huh? Isn't it said that cursing people will bring bad luck?" Princess Mingyue asked, puzzled.
"What good fortune is there in this? The other party is asking for trouble, and you're doing her a favor by doing her a favor. This is accumulating good karma!" Dao Xuan said decisively.
"Then, Taoist priest, what else can you do to accumulate merit and perform good deeds?" Old Lady Liu looked at him expectantly.
"The greatest act of kindness in life is to forgive others for any mistakes they may have made..."
Old Mrs. Liu was listening intently when she heard Dao Xuan say that he couldn't do it anyway.
Princess Mingyue was laughing so hard she almost died; she really liked this Taoist priest.
Old Lady Liu then asked, "Taoist Master, isn't it said that if you suffer in this life, you can live a good life in the next?"
"Next life? What next life? I cultivate Taoism for immortality, I have no intention of dying!"
Li Mingyue then came out and asked, "Master, if I can earn a lot of money and treat my family well, but they treat me badly and give my money to others, why is that?"
"That might be because someone in your family is bringing you bad luck and is harming your fortune!"
Li Mingyue thought about it and realized that it was true. She had earned a lot of money when she was away from them and in the Prince's Mansion. Later, when she became a general, the rewards were even greater.
It seems I was right to cut ties!
Yang Mingyue also came to ask, "Daoist Master, I've been feeling dizzy and sleepy lately. Could you help me figure out what the problem is?"
"I think you should go to the hospital first if you're sick!" Dao Xuan said earnestly.
Yes, everyone rushed to persuade Yang Mingyue to go to the hospital for a checkup, since hospitals are more reliable.
Lin Liuyi, who had been listening intently from the side, asked Xuan, "Daoist Master, have you always been like this?"
"Isn't that right? We cultivators believe in acting from the heart. You don't know, but before, when I went down the mountain to buy some items, I got into an argument with that merchant. He even cursed at me. After I got back, I couldn't calm my mind while meditating for a long time, so I went back and gave that merchant a good beating to make him disturb my Dao heart! Humph!" Dao Xuan said with great pride.
"Then, Taoist priest, can you get married?" Lin Liuyi asked curiously.
“We’re not like those old bald monks who don’t care about these things. One of our fellow practitioners got divorced just a few days ago.”
Seeing the curious looks on Lin Liuyi and the others' faces, Daoxuan told them some things they didn't know. For example, he only bought offerings that he liked to eat, and when parents asked him what to do if their children weren't doing well in school, he suggested that they hire a tutor.
"That's true, but I can't do anything to improve her child's grades!"
