Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 938 Jingci Temple
Yongli

Early August, 1155.

Accompanied by the morning mist, the passenger ship slowly entered the port, and Yang Yiyi pushed Wu Shaoyi's wheelchair off the ship.

Yang Yiyi had been to this place before. When she was going home with Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping, she got off the boat here, and then took a long detour by land before returning home.

When we get here, we enter the territory of Liuzhou State, and Qizhou, which is Yang Yiyi’s hometown.

But what’s strange is that the last time I came to this port, I was afraid of being hunted down by the Liu family, and this time when I came here, I was afraid of being hunted down by the Anxiangtang.

The people sent by Sun Wei to escort had already disembarked and said goodbye at the previous port. After all, the people of the Plum Blossom Guard were active in the neighboring country, and it would not be a good idea even if they did nothing.

No one from Anxiangtang showed up, but Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi didn't dare to let their guard down. The main reason was that the legend about Anxiangtang was too mysterious, and everyone on the street looked like a lurking killer.

The good news is that there are only two letters left in Yang Yiyi's arms, and the distance between them is not far. The bad news is that the rest of the journey is all on land, and it is impossible to move forward quickly by boat.

The two did not stay in crowded places like the port for long. They immediately walked out of the city while the city gate was open.

Walking forward along the neat official road for about a cup of tea, I saw the road turn left towards a mountain. After passing a poplar forest, I walked forward for about half an hour, and a zigzag mountain road appeared in front of me.

At this time, the sound of bells ringing can be faintly heard coming from the mountain. The next stop, Jingci Temple, is on this mountain.

The position of Jingci Temple in the martial arts world is very delicate, somewhat ambiguous.

It is a big sect, but it is not very active in the world. However, it is well-known because people spread the word that the Bodhisattva in Jingci Temple is effective.

In fact, there are not many monks who specialize in martial arts in Jingci Temple. Most of them are monks who concentrate on worshiping Buddha. Therefore, compared with ordinary martial arts sects, most of the people coming and going to Jingci Temple are pilgrims.

As the mountain road was full of steps, Wu Shaoyi's wheelchair was difficult to move, so Yang Yiyi simply carried her on her back and walked up with the wheelchair in one hand. This gesture attracted many pilgrims passing by to stop and take a look.

There were not many tourists early in the morning, and most importantly, the temperature had not risen yet. Yang Yiyi strolled up like taking a walk, and a magnificent temple appeared in front of her.

Jingci Temple is quite old. Initially it was just a dilapidated temple, but later it was gradually expanded upon and became what it is today, and it has been around for nearly three hundred years.

Even early in the morning, there are still many pilgrims coming and going, and it seems that the incense is very popular.

After putting Wu Shaoyi down, the two followed the pilgrims to the temple gate, and a monk in charge of reception came up immediately.

"You two female donors are not like ordinary people. May I ask why you came to my Jingci Temple?"

These words were somewhat warning.

If they were ordinary people, the monk in charge of reception would not be so rude. He should have seen that Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi were both skilled in martial arts, which meant they were not good people to deal with.

I feel like Jingci Temple might be a little nervous recently, otherwise it wouldn't be so wary of the people in the martial arts world.

However, Yang Yiyi was still careless as always, not paying attention to these details at all, and bowed and said:

"I am Yang Yiyi. I have an urgent matter to discuss with the host master. Please let me know."

When the monk in charge of reception heard this, his expression instantly softened from alertness to a smile:
"It turns out to be the tigress Yang Yiyi, Lady Hero Yang. Please come in. I will inform the Master Abbot right away."

"..."

In a sense, Yang Yiyi is indeed famous.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Taohuawu had never heard of Yang Yiyi's nickname, that was because they were ignorant and had already decided not to become a martial arts sect.

But Jingci Temple is not like that.

When the monk in charge of reception heard Yang Yiyi's name and saw the two steel maces on Yang Yiyi's back, he quickly invited the two of them in.

There are countless people who use swords in the martial arts world, but almost no one uses steel maces. This can almost be regarded as Yang Yiyi's business card. It would be better if she didn't add the nickname of tigress.

Feeling somewhat complicated, Yang Yiyi followed the monk in, walked around the pilgrims and the main hall, and came to the backyard where outsiders were generally not allowed to enter.

Another monk immediately brought tea and said that he had notified the abbot and asked him to wait.

"This meditation room in Jingci Temple looks so poor..."

There were only simple and crude furniture in the Zen room. Even the paintings hanging on the wall were signed by monks in the temple. There was no valuable decoration at all.

“Isn’t that the way it is in all temples?”

"As the saying goes, Buddha does not save the poor, but the temples are so rich. I wonder if this Jingci Temple is just an act."

After all, look at the prosperity of Jingci Temple. It doesn’t look like a poor temple at all. Such a simple meditation room may really be used for show.

"Brother Li, be careful of Buddha's blame."

Li Chengxi said nonchalantly:

"How many disciples does the Buddha have? If he really exists, he can just come out and fight me."

Thinking back to the time when Li Chengxi was frightened by ghosts, he and Oldie ran to the temple to buy a rosary for peace of mind, but in fact it was unnecessary.

As he learned more and more, Li Chengxi gradually became bolder and bolder.

His current mentality is, if you say Buddhism exists, I believe it, but if you say Buddha exists?

Okay, come out and practice with me.

After all, Li Chengxi is a real god, and he is definitely not afraid of competing with virtual idols.

As he was saying this, he heard the sound of approaching footsteps, and then two monks walked into the meditation room.

Yang Yiyi quickly stood up and greeted them, but you know what, Yang Yiyi actually knew these two people.

One is Master Xuan Ci, whom he had met during the siege of the Tianlang Sect (see Chapter 373 for details), and the other is Master Xuan Bei, who was a witness in Taohuawu a few days ago.

The monks of the Xuan generation should be at the level of presiding elders in Jingci Temple. Two of them coming out at once means the treatment is quite high.

This can be considered as one of the benefits of Yang Yiyi's early fame. After all, if she were a small fry, she wouldn't be received in such a way.

After a round of greetings, the two monks of the Xuan generation also sat down, and Master Xuanbei said:

"I have heard a lot about your trip to Southern Xinjiang. Fortunately, the two ladies came to help."

This statement is a bit confusing. When I went to southern Xinjiang, the bald man from Jingci Temple was not among the gangsters who went with me.

But in fact, there was, but Yang Yiyi didn't notice it.

The trip to Southern Xinjiang was originally an accident. Originally, Tianjue Palace was taking the lead in investigating Southern Xinjiang's activities in the Central Plains. Since it was an investigation, it couldn't be too conspicuous.

Therefore, the martial monks sent by Jingci Temple all changed into the clothes of ordinary people in the martial arts world, and covered their bald heads with things like bamboo hats to make them less conspicuous.

The martial monk who returned from southern Xinjiang naturally told the monk about Yang Yiyi's situation. That was why the monk's expression changed so obviously when Yang Yiyi gave her name.

Yang Yiyi quickly said a few polite words, but at this time Master Xuanbei said:

"I would also like to thank Miss Yang for showing mercy to Taohuawu, otherwise it would have been a difficult ending."

Yang Yiyi's heart skipped a beat. Damn! This old monk actually figured out that someone was playing for him.
