Chapter 1149: Chapter 1149: Urging
Master Wu choked for a moment, then quickly forced a smile and shook his head, “How could that be? I’m a man of my word. Since I’ve already put up my sign at Jiaoyang Temple, I won’t suddenly leave. The Abbot can rest assured, rest assured.”
Jiangli responded with an “oh” without expression, “Then why ask so much?”
Master Wu: “…”
He let out two awkward laughs, “Right, right, then I’ll stop asking, stop asking.”
Jiangli then ignored him and lowered her head to eat.
Xia Xin looked at Jiangli, silently giving a thumbs-up to the elder, still the elder is awesome.
This was absolute power domination!
Indeed, power speaks the loudest!
Xia Xin became even more determined to train well; tonight, he would practice all night!
After dinner, everyone went to rest.
Upon returning to her room, Jiangli didn’t wash up and rest immediately but instead spread out the giant map she had bought earlier on her bed to study it carefully.
Her fingers hovered between Dangshan and Laoshan. After a moment, her fingertip pointed down among a group of mountains.
Jiangli’s eyes darkened slightly as she stared at that point, as if in a trance, without reacting for a long time.
After a while, she finally seemed to snap out of it, put the map away, and went to wash up, preparing to rest.
Before sleeping, Jiangli received a message from Fu Shiyan.
She felt that Fu Shiyan’s ability to act cute has really become more proficient lately.
The two of them chatted idly back and forth.
Most of the time, it was Jiangli listening to Fu Shiyan sharing his day’s events.
She didn’t know how long they chatted for.
Maybe it was because the chat lasted a long time, but Jiangli didn’t have any nightmares that night and slept very well.
She originally thought she would be busy for a while to come.
But in fact, there wasn’t much to do.
From the next day, Jiangli resumed livestreaming, mostly just chatting idly.
Every time she went live, a rich guy with the ID “I Like You” would log on promptly, toss down twenty Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Order Tokens, and disappear, as if he’s always lurking and never asked Jiangli any questions.
It’s like he’s logging in just to tip.
If she didn’t know Jiaoyang Temple was broke, Jiangli would have suspected it was Xia Xin’s alt account, tipping to hype things up.
In the next four days, nothing happened; the entire F City, and even Jiangli’s fan group, fell into a very subtle calm.
No troubles came knocking.
Counting it, since Jiangli’s return, she’s been earning money intensely to repay debts, and this seems like the first time she’s been this free and not worked seriously for several days straight.
Fortunately, Jiaoyang Temple has many pilgrims now, the reputation has spread, and every day there are pilgrims coming from within the city or even from out of town.
Each day’s incense money isn’t a small income either.
Jiangli originally thought of letting Xia Xin go learn driving, but after considering they’d have to go to B City for the competition, and Xia Xin would have to go too, there’s certainly no time for driving lessons, paying tuition would be a waste.
After discussing with Xia Xin, they decided to postpone the driving lessons and plan to let Xia Xin learn after this event.
These boring and idle days lasted until the fourth day.
Xia Xin received a call from Xun Tianhai, urging them to head to B City, saying the competition’s rules have been set.
This year’s competition content is quite different from before, divided into three regions, but the specific content is not convenient to disclose.
It’s said that you’ll only know on the day of the competition.
Now there are only three days left until the competition starts, and long before the countdown, many Xuanmen families and Taoist Temples have gathered in B City.
Almost everyone who should come has arrived, except Jiaoyang Temple.
Xun Tianhai waited and waited, but didn’t see them come, grew a bit impatient, and had to call and urge them.
