Chapter 760: The Heart of the Fetal God (Twenty-six)

Unexpectedly, the sheep was found and Bai Village returned to its former peace. But at this time, someone finally came to Baoquan Temple.

The morning light shone through the mist onto the green fields of Baicun. The villagers had already set out wine, roasted lamb and red silk at the entrance of the village, all looking forward to your arrival.

Even those eyes hiding in the dark were pulled out into the sunlight.

Danjin and Yueya were naturally no exception. They were notified early in the morning and had to bring Liu Sheng to the village entrance.

Now I finally met those women face to face. We exchanged glances with each other. Although there was not much conversation, it was still a greeting.

However, after everyone had been waiting for a long time, the legendary master did not show up.

Only the master's disciple, Bianba, arrived.

It is said that the master is in retreat and it is inconvenient for him to come out and see people.

Although the villagers were a little disappointed, they could not treat the man in front of them, who was wearing a brown robe and looked simple and dull, poorly.

The old village chief led the men in the village and came forward one after another, offering barley wine and red silk, saying:

"I have long heard of Senior Brother Bianba's demeanor from Baosheng. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed as good as his reputation has been. No wonder he has become Master Baoquan's favorite disciple."

When Yueya heard this, she pointed to a small child following Bianba and whispered to Liusheng, "This is the village chief's grandson, Aji's son, named Baosheng."

She has been very close to the villagers these days, so she has a clearer understanding of these things.

Liu Sheng looked at the child, who was only four or five years old, dressed in silk and satin. He looked fair, tender and handsome, completely different from Aji. A hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes: "Aji actually has a son?"

Yueya nodded: "Yes, it is said that the child was born by one of his deceased wives. The woman died right after the baby was born. It was really pitiful."

I don’t know whether the word “poor” refers to Baosheng, who lost his mother when he was young, or to that woman.

"It is said that this child has good aptitude and has the appearance of a spiritual fetus. He has been practicing with the master of Baoquan Temple since he was young, and is just waiting for the day when he will be taken back to the snow mountain."

"He's so old and still hasn't been taken away..." Liu Sheng asked in confusion.

Dan Jin knew more about Xueshan's affairs and shook his head:

"To put it nicely, this is called having qualifications. To put it bluntly, it is not even a spiritual fetus, so it has been away all this time. If it were really a reincarnation of a spiritual fetus, it would have been taken back to the snow mountain long ago. How could it have been wasted until now?"

After a pause, Danjin continued, "However, relying on Master's method, we may still have a chance to enter the snowy mountains."

Liu Sheng's lips curled slightly: "I see."

Sure enough, at this time, Bian Ba ​​smiled and said, "Village Chief Zhabu is too polite. Now seeing the village chief's demeanor, it's no wonder that Junior Brother Baosheng can please the master so much. I'm afraid he will be able to climb the snow mountain soon!"

This sounded awkward, but the old village chief seemed oblivious to it, smiling from ear to ear: "Okay, okay, I'll take advantage of your good words, senior brother."

I saw Ba being surrounded by villagers from front and back, with constant compliments coming from them. He looked unconsciously proud and walked with a haughty manner.

“Come to think of it… this senior brother doesn’t have any cultivation at all, and is even worse than his junior brother Baosheng.” Liu Sheng muttered in a low voice.

Yueya has traveled a lot and has seen a lot, so she couldn't help but sneer:

"What kind of disciple is this? He is just a servant who does odd jobs. He barely learned some skills and dares to call himself a disciple with the magic tools assigned by the master."

Her tone was sarcastic, but also contained a hint of sourness.

Even this kind of servant was once something she was jealous and envious of.

Dan Jin explained in a low voice: "When the masters on the snowy mountains reach a certain stage in their practice and feel that they have reached a bottleneck, they will come down from the mountain and walk among the people, seeking opportunities and accumulating merits and virtues."

That is why the master came down the mountain to build temples to protect the surrounding people.

Since we are building a temple, we need manpower.

On weekdays, the temple has many affairs to attend to, and it needs people to take care of it, sweep, cook, and even prepare rituals and sacrifices. The master will never do the hard work himself, so he will accept some men from the surrounding villages and towns, calling them disciples, but in fact they are just menial servants.

However, even so, not everyone can be the master's disciple. Often only the children of aristocratic families can have the honor of being so close to the master.

If one has better qualifications, one will have the opportunity to receive personal instruction from the guru, just like Ratnasambhava.

After hearing Dan Jin mention this, Liu Sheng realized that the rules and order of this world had actually been deeply rooted for a long time, surrounding the snow-capped mountains and going down layer by layer, making it almost impossible to break free.

The cold night did not break this stability, but instead strengthened it further.

They were standing at the farthest point, watching from afar, so they could mutter these things.

"It should be none of our business now." Yueya thought.

"I'm going to go graze the sheep now. It's getting late." The two were about to turn around and leave with Liu Sheng, but unexpectedly, the disciple who was the focus of everyone's attention, Bian Ba, suddenly saw Dan Jin and walked towards them with a smile.

The old village chief shouted, "Miss Liu, please stay."

Danjin and Yueya looked at each other and finally stopped reluctantly.

"Master, Village Chief." They bowed.

Bian Ba ​​first glanced at Yueya, who looked haggard and was leaning on a crutch, then quickly looked away. His gaze then fell on Danjin, who was holding Liu Sheng, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"You... are Miss Liu." Bian Ba ​​said with a smile, "You are indeed a good girl just as the rumors say."

Dan Jin responded coldly.

Bian Ba ​​didn't take it seriously and was actually quite polite.

He looked at Liu Sheng in Dan Jin's arms again, and there was a flash of surprise in his eyes, as well as a hint of hidden understanding.

During these days, as he cultivated his innate energy and expelled impurities from his body, Liu Sheng looked more and more radiant, his skin as delicate and white as porcelain, like a dust-free porcelain doll.

In the world where Liu Sheng lives, there are many practitioners and the living standards are not bad, so people like this are not uncommon, so Liu Sheng has never paid attention to this matter.

However, in this world, this appearance stands out among the dark-skinned and haggard villagers like a pearl in the dark night.

Even Baosheng couldn't help but look at her several times.

Bian Ba ​​touched Baosheng's head and said, "Junior brother, you like this sister too, right?"

Baosheng nodded.

It is not easy to have children in this world. Baosheng is the only child. Because of his status, he went to the temple to practice since he was a child. He rarely interacted with the few children in the village. He always felt that they were all vulgar creatures.

Now, suddenly seeing such a fair and lovely child, of course I feel fresh and new.

Then, Bian Ba ​​took out a jade button from his bosom, handed it to Dan Jin, and said, "This is a sacred object that has been blessed. Give it to the little girl for self-defense."

Dan Jin declined, saying, "This thing is too valuable to accept."

"It's okay, just take it. Your sister is my aunt, we are all family, it doesn't matter."

"Aunt?" Yueya said coldly, "How come we don't know about this?"

The village chief and Aji looked at each other in awkward silence.

Bian Ba ​​noticed something was wrong and turned to ask, "Why, you haven't told me yet?"

Aji's dark face turned red, he lowered his head in annoyance, and murmured, unable to speak.

The old village chief coughed a few times and said to Danjin, "The thing is, the master heard about everything you two sisters did in the village and believed that you have a connection with the fetal god and are protecting the world on his behalf. So, he hopes that Miss Danjin can go to the temple to serve the master, so that... this connection can continue."

Yueya's eyes widened immediately.

Danjin unconsciously hugged the adult tightly, his chest rising and falling violently, and then he said softly: "What about my sheep? I still have to herd them every day."

The old village chief couldn't help but laugh and said, "Oh, silly girl, there is such a great thing, why are you still thinking about sheep? We will send your sheep to the temple as a token of love from Bai Village to you. You can kill them to eat or just herd them for fun. It's up to you."

"What about my sister?"

"Of course I'll follow you! It's just right for Baosheng to keep you company."

"Where's Sister Yueya?"

The old village chief looked at Aji, who was secretly clenching his fists and lowering his head in silence, and said, "Miss Yueya is in poor health and needs someone to take care of her. My Aji is willing to be such a person."

After hearing this, Dan Jin lowered his head and lowered his voice:
"Yes, you have thought of it so carefully."

The old village chief stroked his beard and smiled, "After all, you are the heroes of Bai Village, so you should be more considerate. When the time comes...you and Miss Yueya, the village will prepare a generous gift and will never let you suffer any injustice."

Yueya listened coldly, her hands that were leaning on the crutch gradually clenched, and the joints turned white bit by bit.

Dan Jin continued, his tone low, as if he was suppressing some emotion: "Yes, you have considered it so carefully..."

She paused, almost whispering:

"But it seems that he has never considered it..."

"Are we happy or not?"

The usually gentle little girl raised her head, with cold waves surging in the depths of her eyes.
