Heroes Return

"Then let them go," Lin Jie said to the unscrupulous master. "But speaking of which, what's so special about my identity?"

"Because Benefactor Lin just got dumped," the unscrupulous master said. "And Benefactor Lin, you have the face of a single dog!"

"Damn it! Can we not talk about this? And what's wrong with my looks? I'm totally handsome!"

Chapter VII

In the end, the people of Guanggun Temple released Master Wuneng and Ye Daoshen. The four of them were taken to the Guanggun Temple's dining hall by Master Wuliang, but unlike other temple dining halls that served vegetarian food, Guanggun Temple's dining hall surprisingly offered a variety of meat dishes.

After Xiao Zhan swiped his card like crazy, everyone enjoyed a delicious meal.

"Then, Thirteen, you and Benefactor Lin Jie, come with us to see my senior brother. It's boring." Wu Liang said to Lin Jie and Thirteen. "As for Benefactor Xiao Zhan and Benefactor Glasses here, my senior brother Wu Neng can show you around the temple."

"Wait! I came here with Thirteen, why do I have to go see that boring master too?" Lin Jie asked, puzzled.

"Since I've asked you to go, there must be a reason," Wuliang said to Lin Jie with a smile. "Besides, it seems that Senior Brother Wuliao has quite a few things he wants to ask you."

"Alright, then I'll go with you." Lin Jie said, "I also have something I want to ask you. But speaking of which, that Bored Master seems like a reliable person, right?"

"Don't worry, no one in the entire Bachelor Temple is more reliable than my senior brother, Bored." Wuliang said, beckoning to Lin Jie and Thirteen, signaling them to follow him. Then he led Lin Jie and Thirteen away from the cafeteria.

"Then you can take us to see the other things in the temple," Xiao Zhan said to the incompetent master who was frantically eating beside him.

"Don't worry, leave the temple visit to me!" Master Wuneng said to the two men while gnawing on a large pork knuckle.

"Are you really a monk? How come you're eating meat so heartily?" The bespectacled man said, looking at the monk who had been freeloading on the sidelines. "Seriously, as the abbot of the temple, can't you at least maintain some decorum?"

"What does it matter? Let the master eat it whoever he likes," Xiao Zhan said to the man with glasses.

"Huh? You mean I ate meat?" Master Wuneng then put on a guilty expression and said, "As you all know, although I am blind, I can't see that I'm eating meat. But since I've already eaten it, I can't waste it. Let me perform a ritual to help this poor creature pass on to the afterlife."

Then, the Incompetent Master continued to eat voraciously.

"Damn it! Who are you kidding? Even if you can't find it by looking, you can still tell by feeling!" the bespectacled guy said unhappily.

"Forget it, we can't finish it anyway." Xiao Zhan then said, "Speaking of which, Master, are you really blind? Why do I feel like you're not blind at all? Tell the truth, Master, are you faking it?"

"Hmph! It seems you don't believe I'm blind." Master Wuneng said, taking out a cloth and covering his eyes: "Look carefully at the people coming in through the door, BBACACBDE, the last one is B, she's wearing an air cushion."

Upon hearing Master Wu Neng's words, Xiao Zhan and the bespectacled man simultaneously looked towards the entrance. At that moment, quite a few female students were entering the cafeteria.

Upon hearing the master's words, Xiao Zhan and the man with glasses immediately understood what he meant. Xiao Zhan promptly put on the sunglasses he had previously developed for detection.

"Holy crap! Master, you were right about everything!" After examining the girls' breasts, Xiao Zhan looked at the incompetent master in shock: "Master, how did you do that? Although my calculation glasses can't see the last one, she's probably wearing air cushioning."

"No way? You can tell the bra sizes of those girls just by listening?" The bespectacled guy looked at the incompetent master in disbelief.

"Hmph! You two really think this humble monk is pretending to be blind? Then you greatly underestimate this humble monk." Master Wuneng said to Xiao Zhan and the man with glasses, "This humble monk has cultivated the Heavenly Eye since childhood, so even without eyes, this humble monk can still live freely. Let me tell you, as long as those girls make a sound, this humble monk can tell their figures. In other words, although this humble monk cannot see, to this humble monk, all the girls are no different from prostitutes."

"Master is indeed a master!" Xiao Zhan looked at the incompetent master with admiration: "By the way, Master, what if you want to watch a movie?"

"Just by hearing one soft moan from the female lead in the film, I guarantee I can instantly tell what position they're using!" Master Wuneng said, giving Xiao Zhan a confident smile.

"I want to learn your unique skill, please teach it to me!!!" Xiao Zhan immediately said to the incompetent master, "Don't worry, my group has made a lot of money recently, just tell me what you need!"

"Really?" Master Wuneng asked.

"Really." Xiao Zhan said, then pulled out a check for several hundred thousand yuan and handed it to the incompetent master: "I want to learn this amazing skill of recognizing women by their voices!!"

"What a joke! Do you think we monks are the kind of people who can be easily bribed with money?" Master Wuneng said, putting Xiao Zhan's check into his pocket. Then he said to Xiao Zhan, "However, this humble monk sees that you have extraordinary bones and are indeed suitable for learning this peerless skill. In order to prevent my Heavenly Eye Technique from being lost, and also to not waste such excellent material as you, I have decided to pass on my skills to you!"

"You've obviously been bought off with money!" the bespectacled man said, looking at the expression on the incompetent master's face.

“Speaking of Xiao Zhan, you have perfectly good eyesight and are so rich. I think if you wanted to see girls, you would have no problem at all. Why do you have to spend money to learn this skill?” Master Wuneng suddenly asked Xiao Zhan with a serious expression.

"Nonsense! Of course it's more exciting this way!!" Xiao Zhan said, "It's like how many couples who have the money to book a hotel room still insist on having sex outside."

"Hahaha, you are indeed a kindred spirit, benefactor! I won't take your money! I will definitely teach you this skill!" Master Wuneng said, returning the check to Xiao Zhan.

"Sure enough, no wonder I felt so close to the master as soon as I saw him! It turns out that the master and I are indeed kindred spirits!" Xiao Zhan happily took the hand of the incompetent master at this moment.

“Indeed, we really hit it off immediately!” Wu Neng said, squeezing Xiao Zhan’s hand tightly.

"Let's become sworn brothers!" the two exclaimed simultaneously. Then they burst into laughter.

Watching this cringe-worthy scene unfold, the bespectacled guy couldn't help but rub his forehead: "Should I just call the police and take care of this pain in the as soon as possible, to prevent them from making any bigger mistakes in the future!"

"Alright brother, I'll take you to see the back mountain of our Bachelor Temple!" After laughing with Xiao Zhan for a while, Master Wuneng pulled Xiao Zhan aside and said, "Let me tell you, the really good places in our Bachelor Temple are actually in the backyard!"

"Really? Master! You must take me to see it!!" Xiao Zhan said with interest.

"Alright! Let's go!" Master Wuneng said, getting up and walking out of the cafeteria with Xiao Zhan. The bespectacled guy could only helplessly follow them.

Not long after, the three of them returned to the platform on the back of the mountain.

"Is this our training ground? The disciples of the Guanggun Temple practice martial arts here every day," Master Wuneng said. "Of course, there are exceptions when there are special circumstances."

"The special circumstances you're talking about are like tying you to that stake and roasting you?" the bespectacled man asked.

"Tch, I'm just giving my junior brothers face, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to catch me!" Master Wuneng said, looking around.

"You'd be more believable if you didn't look around when you spoke."

"Don't worry about the details." Master Wuneng said, looking at a quaint little building not far away. "That's the Sutra Repository! Our Guanggun Temple's advanced martial arts techniques are all stored there, and sometimes it's also used to store some divine weapons."

"Wow, that's amazing! Can I go in and take a look?" Xiao Zhan asked, looking at the Sutra Repository.

"Don't even think about it. This is where high-level martial arts manuals are kept, right? They can't just let an outsider like you in, can they?" The bespectacled guy patted Xiao Zhan on the shoulder and said, "I heard that ancient martial arts sects all value inheritance, right?"

"You've been reading too many martial arts novels, haven't you?" Master Wuneng said to the bespectacled man. "Actually, anyone can go in and see your martial arts manuals for just twenty yuan a ticket. Of course, the top floor, where the highest-level techniques are kept, costs an extra thirty yuan!"

"Hey! For a few dozen yuan for a ticket, you're letting anyone see your sect's martial arts manual?" the bespectacled man said to Master Wuneng in disbelief.

“What’s there to be afraid of? Anyway, all the books there have copies. If someone damages them, we can get a large sum of compensation from that person,” said Master Wuneng.

"These aren't the key issues at all!" the bespectacled man said. "And aren't you really afraid that bad guys will learn these skills and then go out and do evil?"

"Amitabha," Master Wuneng chanted a Buddhist prayer at this moment. "Benefactor, in our view, all beings are equal. Although everyone's circumstances are different, Heaven is fair to everyone. Therefore, everyone who comes to my temple has the opportunity to receive a chance. Whether you become a demon or a Buddha depends on your own thoughts. As the saying goes, 'Man may wrong, but Heaven will not. The world turns and cycles. Look up and see, who has Heaven spared? Everything has cause and effect, what are we afraid of?"

"Master, could you please be more direct? I don't quite understand what you mean," Xiao Zhan said to the incompetent master beside him.

"Simply put, the Guanggun Temple is really short of money lately, so we can only make some extra money this way. As for what those people do after learning kung fu, that's none of our business. Someone will take care of it anyway," Master Wuneng said. "But speaking of which, people these days are really interesting. For fifty yuan, anyone can see unparalleled martial arts, yet not many people are willing to go in and watch."

"Nonsense! It's hard for people not to think of you monks as swindlers!" the bespectacled man said.

"In that case, I want to go in and take a look!" Xiao Zhan said.

"Wait! I want to go in too!" the bespectacled man said at this moment.

"No problem." Master Wuneng smiled slightly and said mysteriously to the two of them, "Since we seem to get along well, I'll tell you a secret. Once you're inside, be sure to look at the books that start with the character '甲'!"

chapter eight

"Congratulations on buying a small stroke of luck!" Looking at the forty yuan in his hand, the gatekeeper monk smiled and waved to Xiao Zhan and the bespectacled man who had just entered.

After watching the bespectacled man and Xiao Zhan enter the Sutra Pavilion, the first thing Master Wuneng did was to discuss the division of money with the monks at the door.

After entering the library, Glasses Guy and Xiao Zhan couldn't help but start flipping through the book whose name contained the character '甲' that Master Wu Neng had specifically mentioned before.

"Ah! I found it!" About ten minutes later, Xiao Zhan shouted to the bespectacled man while holding a book with only a large "甲" (jia) written on it.

"Did you find it? Let me see!!" the bespectacled guy said, running over as well.

"What do you think is the contents of this book that Master Wuneng mentioned?" Xiao Zhan asked the bespectacled man curiously.

"Just open it and you'll know!"

With the mindset of seeing what the incompetent master recommended, the two carefully opened the ancient book that only contained the character "甲" (jia). The handwritten ancient characters appeared before their eyes.

"Judging from the font, this book is definitely several hundred years old." Xiao Zhan carefully observed the words and said, "No wonder it's an ancient book recommended by Master Wuneng. I took a picture with my sunglasses and then checked it online. Let me put it this way, this book would definitely be worth a lot of money in the antique market."

"Really? What does it mean?" the bespectacled man asked Xiao Zhan.

"Wait a minute, I'll translate it for you." With that, Xiao Zhan pointed his sunglasses at the contents of the ancient book and read aloud: "Pan Jinlian let out a soft moan and fell into Ximen Qing's arms..."

"As expected, I should have guessed that incompetent old monk would do the same thing." The bespectacled man stopped Xiao Zhan from continuing to read, then said to him, "Sure enough, that old monk only appreciates books like *Jin Ping Mei*! Speaking of which, isn't this the temple's scripture library? Why would they have such a book here?"

"It must have been left behind by the seniors of Guanggun Temple," Xiao Zhan said. "But it's really amazing! We actually managed to see such an authentic original copy of Jin Ping Mei. If this were auctioned off, it would definitely fetch a high price."

"I thought I'd find some amazing martial arts manual! But after searching for so long, all I found was a copy of 'Jin Ping Mei'! Damn it!" With that, Brother Glasses took the ancient book and put it back where it was.

"At least let me finish reading it!" Xiao Zhan said, "This is the most authentic version of Jin Ping Mei's plot."

"You still have the mood to study this?" the bespectacled man said to Xiao Zhan. Then he noticed a book not far away with the character "甲" (jia) at the beginning of its title: "Hey? There's a book over there called '甲二三二' (Jia Er San Er)."

The bespectacled man walked over and picked up the book that started with the character "甲" (jia): "Could it be that the master was actually talking about this book?"

“Very likely,” Xiao Zhan said as he walked over.

Then the two of them opened the book called A232 again.

"Holy crap! A Playboy 50th Anniversary Edition! This has been out of print for ages!" Xiao Zhan exclaimed excitedly after seeing the contents. "I get it! Anything with the 'A' in it is definitely a rare, out-of-print adult magazine! No wonder it's called 'Bachelor Temple'!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Zhan began a frantic treasure hunt in the library. About half an hour later, the two of them found more than a dozen books with the character "甲" (jia) on the first floor of the library.

Without exception, they were all out-of-print pornographic books.

"Didn't we come here to look for martial arts manuals? How did it turn into looking for pornographic books?" the bespectacled man said to Xiao Zhan.

“That makes sense, then let’s go straight to the top floor!” Xiao Zhan tossed the Joyful Zen back onto the bookshelf and said to the bespectacled man, “Let’s go up.”

"Huh? Shouldn't we look on other floors?" the bespectacled man asked.

"The top floor costs an extra thirty yuan. What do you think that means?" Xiao Zhan asked the man with glasses. "Does it mean that all the high-end items are here?"

“That makes sense!” The bespectacled man thought for a moment, then followed Xiao Zhan to the top floor of the Sutra Repository. Of course, this was after paying a thirty-yuan fee to go upstairs.

The books on the top floor were far fewer than those on the lower floors, but to the two of them, each one looked extraordinary.

"There are books here that start with the character '甲'!" Xiao Zhan pointed to a book in the distance, which was titled "First-Class Secret Techniques."

"Is this going to be another pornographic book?" the bespectacled man said, looking at the book.

"Impossible, right? If it were pornography, there would be no need to put it in a place like this, would there? Isn't this where the highest-level scriptures are kept?" Xiao Zhan walked forward, picked up the book, and opened it directly.

Then, in the middle of the two people's room, the entire book was filled with barcodes and verification codes.

"What the heck is this?" the bespectacled man asked, looking at the book with a puzzled expression.

"I just scanned the verification code and activation code here," Xiao Zhan said to the man with glasses. "This book is definitely an extremely valuable and important one! In fact, if its contents weren't publicly available, it would be the subject of a frenzy of bidding!"

"Are you kidding me? What did you see after scanning those verification codes in this book?" the bespectacled man asked Xiao Zhan.

"They're all porn sites! And they're all safe, green porn sites that are available for free download or online viewing and are completely safe!" Xiao Zhan said to the guy with glasses.
