Chapter 29: Expelling the Fragrant Guest
"Is it here? What's going on? Can you tell me now?" Lin Qing asked the demon horn.
The Second Cangshan, Sima Xiangru and Zi Huaiyu also nodded at this moment, apparently they didn't have a deep faith in Buddha.
"Great Uncle, Brother Xiangru, Uncle Huaiyu, Aunt Linqing, it's here. I want to stay alone for half an hour now, and I'd like you all to help me guard the Grand Hall of Supreme Treasure for half an hour." The demon horn suddenly spoke up.
"Huh?" Everyone stared at Yao Jiao, their eyes flashing with extreme confusion.
Looking at nearly five hundred devout worshippers kneeling there, people's hearts felt a strange sensation. Should these worshippers be chased away?
"What's going on?" asked the Second Master of Cangshan with a frown.
"This is the method my master taught me, a secret technique. I need to cultivate it alone in a large temple for a period of time, completely sealed off. Now, the largest temple in the capital city is the Daxiangguo Temple, so I chose this place. However, I know there are many pilgrims here, so I'd like to ask for your help to clear out the pilgrims for me for half an incense stick's time. After that, it won't be needed anymore."
Although everyone here is familiar, the demon horn still remembers what the master said before his death, human heart.
"What secret method?" Sima Xiangru asked strangely.
"What secret method? Let you stay in a big temple?" Upper Officer Lin Qing said strangely.
"I remember that in the Great Compassion Temple, there is a practice where before cultivating it, one must face the wall for a year. Within that year, they absolutely cannot speak. Only after a year can they cultivate this practice. It seems to be similar to yours, could it be that your master is also a monk?" Zi Huaiyu frowned and said.
"Monk?" The demon's horn wobbled back and forth in a strange motion. His own master was a monk? How could that be possible?
"Are you certain?" asked the Second Celestial Mountain, furrowing his brow. The Second Celestial Mountain did not ask what kind of secret technique the Demon Horn was, although he was extremely suspicious in his heart, but also knew that the Demon Horn would not speak rashly.
"Not bad, if I were in the Great Temple of the Country, in this great hall, my accomplishments would be even higher. I want to stay here alone for half a time, if it weren't for hearing that the Great Temple of the Country doesn't decrease at all in the evening when people come to worship Buddha, I wouldn't bother you." The horned demon nodded heavily and said.
"Not bad, Dashang Temple is open all day long, even at night, there are still many pilgrims." The second elder nodded.
Everyone saw the Second Mount Heaven nodding his head and also knew about the Second Mount Heaven's decision.
"Let's help you, it's not like we can't, although it's a bit of trouble. However, this crime, we can still bear the responsibility for it. But after helping you with such a big favor, what benefits do we get?" Officer Lin Qing said with a smile, his eyes gleaming with calculation.
"Right, right, we won't do it if there's no benefit." Sima Xiangru and Zi Huaiyu nodded and smiled immediately.
At this moment, the Second Cangshan was smiling on one side, saying nothing. As if watching to see what Yao Jiao would do.
Seeing everyone speak up like this, Yao Jiao's heart was filled with great joy, knowing that this matter was basically settled.
"Xiangru Shu, Huaiyu Shu, hmm, I've written a lot in my new book. Let me show you the first half, what do you think? Absolutely classic." Yaojiao smiled and said.
"Huh? The first half? Okay..." Sima Xiangru said excitedly. But when he got to the last "okay", he was pulled back by Zi Huaiyu, who covered his mouth.
"No way, you have to show us all your stored drafts first." Zi Huaiyu immediately chimed in, her eyes fixed straight on Yao Jiao.
"Yes, yes, all the drafts." Sima Xiangru also reacted and nodded immediately.
"It's settled then." The demon horse replied in an instant.
"This condition, I didn't agree to it, your aunt will definitely be willing, those two have already been bought over by you, if you don't come up with a condition that satisfies me, I won't agree." Shangguan Linqing said with a smile.
"Hmm, Lin Qingyi, I naturally have benefits for you, but these benefits can't be known to them. Come closer and listen." The demon horn suddenly smiled and said.
"Huh?" The crowd looked at Yaoguo in surprise, wondering what he would use to buy off Lin Qing.
Shangguan Linqing also leaned in close.
"Lin Qingyi, I know you pretend to like 'girls', but in your heart, you've always been thinking of my uncle. Don't worry, when the time comes, I'll help you." The demon whispered in her ear.
After finishing speaking, the demon horn retreated, and Shangguan Linqing seemed to become strange all of a sudden. He raised his head, looked at the Second Tian Mountain, then looked at the demon horn, saw the demon horn smiling and nodding over there, and immediately his face turned red.
Others stretched their necks to look at the demon horn, wondering what the demon horn had said to Lin Qing, and besides, the conversation time was very short, apparently only one or two sentences.
"Alright." Lin Qing suddenly said something that left Sima Xiangru with his mouth agape. To think that Lin Qing, the most difficult person to deal with, was settled by a single sentence from Ya Jiao?
"What did Ya Jiao say?" Zi Huaiyu immediately asked back. While Sima Xiangru also stared at Lin Qing.
"Yes, what benefits did the demon girl give you?" The Second Elder of Cangshan also said strangely.
The Second Master Cangshan said, and Upper Official Lin Qing seemed extremely embarrassed, refusing to speak.
"Alright, thank you, everyone," said the demon king immediately. This seemed to dispel the doubts of the crowd.
"Hmm" The Second Young Master of Cangshan nodded.
"Lin Tian, go and gather three hundred soldiers over here." Shangguan Lin Qing immediately ordered.
"Yes." Lin Tian replied promptly.
Very soon, a large number of officers and men rushed to the Temple of Great Virtue. Three hundred officers quickly gathered at the gate of the Mahavira Hall, blocking the way for the pilgrims who wanted to enter.
Many pilgrims looked at the scene of the Great Hero Treasure Hall with great curiosity and astonishment.
Inside the Taihe Hall, many incense guests also suddenly saw a scene outside. Each of them was shocked.
Many pilgrims immediately walked out of the door, and the soldiers did not stop them, letting them leave quickly.
After some of the powerless and influenceless ones left, those who remained were all self-proclaimed dignitaries, able to intimidate hundreds of soldiers, who slowly furrowed their brows as they walked out the door.
When they saw the Second Mount Heng and Sima Xiangru, the person who was just about to show off immediately chose to leave.
Suddenly, in the great hall, there were only a dozen or so incense guests left, and more than a hundred monks.
"Please wait for half an hour, and the Great Hero Hall will be closed for half an hour." The Second Tian Shan said to the crowd.
"Amitabha Buddha! What does this mean, all you donors?" Suddenly shouted the leader of the monks.
"Is Master Kong not here? You all shouldn't stay inside either, let Master Kong come in. I'll talk to your master and he will agree." The second Tian Shan spoke up.
"The master is seeing an important guest and has not yet asked about the donor..." The monk frowned.
"You go and report to Kongfang Zhai, I am called Second Cangshan." Second Cangshan said.
The second monk opened his mouth, and the leading monk seemed to have thought of something. He immediately led the monks out.
The remaining fragrance guest, seeing that all the monks had gone out, felt that staying inside was not a big deal either. Therefore, he also took a fierce look at the Second Cangshan and others, and followed them out of the main hall.
