Chapter 770: Good deeds have good rewards

~8 min read 1,479 words

Tang Chuanwu could be certain that half an hour ago, there were no gold beans on the table.

He became alert. He had been practicing martial arts for more than half a year, and his five senses had improved. Even a Qi Refining 6th-layer cultivator could not appear silently and place gold beans on the table.

Who was it?

Was the other party a friend or a foe?

Previously, his little sister had been discovered by the leader of the local gang, the Desert Gang, to possess a spiritual root, and the leader wanted to use her spiritual root body to practice evil arts. He had directly sent someone to deliver silver, calling this money "life-buying money." When his little sister refused, the subordinate, who had cultivation, was heavy-handed and beat his little sister to death. Seeing this, he had pounced over and was also beaten to death.

Afterward, he had reincarnated many times, constantly collecting information, and learned two important pieces of news: the deputy leader of the Desert Gang had long coveted the position of leader, and the Desert Gang's mortal enemy, the Killing Wolf Gang, had always been jealous of the Desert Gang's territory.

He then incited the two major gangs to fight, and the deputy leader killed the leader in the chaos, becoming the new leader of the Desert Gang. No one knew that his little sister possessed a spiritual root, which helped her avoid this disaster.

Tang Chuanwu shouted: "I don't know which master helped our brother and sister. Please leave your name so we can erect a longevity tablet for you to repay your kindness."

There was no response.

After waiting for a moment, Tang Chuanwu shouted again, but there was still no response.

"Could it be life-buying money again?"

Tang Chuanwu couldn't gauge the other party's attitude, which made him extremely uneasy.

"I must see what the background of the person who gave the gold beans is!"

He picked up a kitchen knife from the cutting board and stabbed it fiercely toward his heart!

After Lu Yang left the gold beans, he returned to Kaihuang Temple.

"Old Lu, what did you go do to be so happy?" Meng Jingzhou asked, puzzled. This kid had been acting sneakily following Tang Qiaoqiao; why was he acting so happy when he returned?

Lu Yang laughed, humming a little tune: "Went to do good deeds. Doesn't Buddhism emphasize that good deeds have good rewards? This is called accumulating merit..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Yang's vision went black, and he heard the first pilgrim complaining to Master Duanchen, crying and sobbing.

"Master, many years ago, on my wedding night, my fiancé eloped with my maid..."

Lu Yang: "..."

Is this what good deeds having good rewards means?

Why did time flow backward again for no reason?

Did the user of the Time Dao Fruit encounter something again?

Although Lu Yang knew that Master Duanchen would spend the whole day today filling and pouring water in the bottle, and also knew what kind of pilgrims he would encounter today, he was already standing behind Master Duanchen observing. If he left now, wouldn't it give people the impression that he was too bored and didn't want to watch? It wouldn't be giving the Master face.

Lu Yang had no choice but to stand where he was, watching the events that followed like watching a replay, and he couldn't even fast-forward.

When the last pilgrim, Tang Qiaoqiao, left, the full day's recording replay was finally finished.

Originally, Lu Yang thought about just giving the gold beans to Tang Qiaoqiao and letting her take them home, but he was worried that this little girl would accidentally reveal her wealth on the way. For the sake of safety, it was most appropriate to send them directly to her home.

This time, he didn't need Tang Qiaoqiao to lead the way. Lu Yang headed straight for Tang Qiaoqiao's home. At this time, Tang Chuanwu had finished a set of boxing techniques and was sitting at the table resting and drinking water.

Lu Yang thought about it. If he placed the gold beans directly on the table, wouldn't it give Tang Chuanwu a fright? So he placed the gold beans on the stove and drifted away.

Tang Chuanwu waited until Tang Qiaoqiao returned. The siblings chatted for a long time, and Tang Chuanwu kept paying attention to the movement at the table, but from beginning to end, he didn't see the gold beans appear.

"Strange, why haven't they appeared yet?"

It wasn't until Tang Qiaoqiao carried the fish bones to the stove that she called out in surprise: "Where did these gold beans come from?"

Tang Chuanwu felt a chill. He had deliberately sat at the table just to know how the other party appeared.

The gold beans appearing on the stove meant that the other party had seen him sitting at the table and didn't want him to discover them, which was why they had changed the location of the gold beans.

"Someone who can do this is at least a Foundation Establishment great power, possibly even a Jin Dan ancestor."

Tang Chuanwu pondered. The other party's attitude in placing the gold beans didn't seem to be malicious.

If they were using money as a medium for sorcery, it should have been hidden more secretly and not found. If it were life-buying money, it would have been placed directly in front of him.

"Is it because they saw that our brother and sister were pitiful and gave them to us as alms?"

Perhaps the other party was some Jin Dan ancestor playing in the human world, doing it casually. It was he who was too nervous, seeing enemies in every tree and blade of grass.

It was no wonder Tang Chuanwu was careful. He knew that his meager strength was not enough in front of a Foundation Establishment great power. He couldn't act too arrogant just because he had the ability of time regression.

Time regression was not invincible; it also had flaws.

After experiencing hundreds of active or passive time regressions, he had long ago figured out the two major characteristics of this ability: it was premised on his own death, and it could only regress to the hour of Chen (7-9 AM), and the regression time could not exceed one day.

If a demonic cultivator discovered his unusualness and directly searched his soul, learning of his experiences, he would probably be in a desperate situation.

Soul searching would not make him die, but it would make him lose his sanity and become a fool.

A demonic cultivator could completely imprison their soul-searched self, kill themselves when they want to time-travel back, and after the time travel, they would still remain in a foolish state, completely reduced to a tool for the demonic cultivator.

He wouldn't even have a chance to turn the tables.

"Two benefactors, there are still two months until the Bathing Buddha Festival. I wonder if you would allow me to publicize the two of you to the outside world?" Early in the morning, Master Duanchen was guarding the door of Lu Yang and his companion's guest room, waiting for them to come out.

The letter only invited Lu Yang and his companion to come to Kaihuang Temple to sit for a while. Supporting the scene was Lu Yang's guess, and now it could be confirmed: it was to support the scene and attract foreign cultivators.

Meng Jingzhou patted his chest and gave a thumbs up: "Of course, my brother and I are upright people. Master can publicize us as you wish."

"Then I thank the two benefactors first."

"I believe that if you want to become famous quickly, you must rely on 'events'."

Under Master Duanchen's management, Kaihuang Temple's incense was becoming more and more prosperous, and he had his own set of explored publicity experience.

"For example, our Kaihuang Temple's reputation is on par with the surrounding temples. Pilgrims basically go to whichever temple is closer, with no distinction at all."

"For this reason, I have captured many evil spirits and poisonous things and placed them not far from Kaihuang City, pretending that they are about to launch a major attack on Kaihuang City. At this time, I will take action to solve them all at once, and my reputation will naturally surpass the other temples."

"I would like to ask the two of you to pretend to encounter evil spirits in this city and take action to solve them. In this way, the appearance of the two of you will rely on events. People like to talk about such things after tea and dinner, and I believe it will spread the news of your appearance in Kaihuang City faster."

Lu Yang and his companion thought about it and agreed. ===== CHAPTER 771 =====
