After all, Master Li had once been a high-ranking official in the court, and it only took him a day to figure things out.
The dog friends who used to drink with Li Mingxue were arrested one after another. After a little interrogation, they learned about the person surnamed Su from their mouths. However, when asked to describe Su's appearance, few could explain it clearly.
Starting from the woman who jumped into the river, her elder brother was quickly found. However, according to that person, his younger sister had died of illness two years ago and had never been in contact with Li Mingxue's friend. The officers were a little surprised when they heard this and informed Master Li about it. By the time they went to arrest the person surnamed Su, the Su family's mansion was already empty and covered in cobwebs.
The case was stuck, and everyone knew about Li Mingxue's injustice. The person surnamed Su was nowhere to be found, and Master Li hated him so much that he gritted his teeth. He vowed that even if he died of old age, he would make his son, who was an official, find him.
No more strange things happened in the Li Mansion. After half a month, Li Mingxue was successfully buried.
Several days had passed since Jiang Wen left the temple, and he calculated that the day to return was approaching, so he prepared to return to the Taoist temple.
Although Master Li repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, Jiang Wen did not delay any longer.
On the day of his departure, Master Li sent a generous gift, adding five hundred taels of gold to the previous deposit.
"This item was bestowed by the Taixuan Zhenren of the Zivi Palace in the capital. It can drive away demons, ward off evil spirits, and protect the house. I have kept it in the vault and have never taken it out. I am now giving it to the Immortal Master, and I hope the Immortal Master will not dislike it."
Master Li held a precious sword in his hands and handed it to Jiang Wen.
Jiang Wen took the sword and examined it, seeing that the sword was exquisitely crafted, no less than various works of art from his previous life. The scabbard was inlaid with gems, connected together like the Big Dipper. The sword body felt quite sharp to the touch. He plucked a hair to test its sharpness, and it was easily cut.
He closed his eyes and fell asleep as the carriage swayed, his consciousness coming to a misty place. Just by looking up, he could see a statue more than ten feet tall sitting in a lotus position. The face was similar to Jiang Wen's, but even more sacred. The statue was covered in golden light, like a golden man.
"Master Li, please take care of your health," Jiang Wen said softly to comfort him.
Jiang Wen sat in the carriage, holding the sword and looking out. He sorted out the things that had happened in recent days, feeling that Li Mingxue's drowning might not be so simple.
{Sir, do you still sell gold here?}
{The game meat from last time was good. I wonder if Brother Jiang still has any.}.
"This is my golden finger? It's really troublesome."
He tapped on the stone tablet next to the statue, and as golden light lit up, two lines of text appeared.
"I'm finally back," Jiang Wen said with a smile as he looked at the sky.
"Everyone has their own destiny. Perhaps this is the Third Young Master's tribulation. Immortals must undergo three disasters and six tribulations to become immortals. The Third Young Master will definitely have a good future in his next life," Jiang Wen found a reason, trying to make Master Li feel better.
The carriage gradually drove away, the scenery along the way still the same, but with a bit more greenery than when he came.
Just like those who seek a child can receive the blessing of easy pregnancy, those who seek wealth can receive the blessing of wealth accumulation, and those who seek health can receive the blessing of recovery. It cannot be considered immortal magic, but it is practical and useful. If enough incense is offered, one can also summon clouds and rain, and call upon wind and thunder.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz."
The Huangting Scripture, also known as the Laozi Huangting Scripture, is an important work of the Shangqing School of Taoism. It is also the main secret book of inner alchemy cultivation for inner alchemists. Jiang Wen often recited it with his grandfather when he was a child. Although there is no so-called cultivation of immortality in the original world, and the so-called ascension and attainment of the Tao is just a fantasy.
"Thank you for your hard work in the mansion, Immortal Master. After my son's injustice is resolved, I will definitely visit the immortal gate again to thank the Immortal Master," Master Li cupped his hands and saluted.
He usually liked weapons, and he quite liked this sword. Since Master Li wanted to give it to him, he accepted it without being polite.
While still on the road, he tried to deduce the Taoist classics.
"I wonder how this merit value is calculated?" Jiang Wen thought with great interest.
As for the question of whether the Taoist temple would still exist after he left, Jiang Wen had recorded a video. After he left, the Taoist temple still existed, but he himself should not be in the Taoist temple. Is this situation a mirror image, or do both worlds have Taoist temples? Jiang Wen couldn't figure it out.
"Good sword," Jiang Wen praised.
Jiang Wen calculated that it was time for him to return to the original world, so he didn't try to persuade the servant who saw him off to stay in the temple. He just gave the other party some money and asked him to find an inn to stay for the night.
But now that he had encountered the ghost of Li Mingxue entrusting him with a dream in this world, Jiang Wen felt that this world was probably not as simple as he imagined.
Most of the messages were for purchase, because Jiang Wen would always bring back various kinds of game, so he found some channels to sell these things.
He thought of a relatively classic work, which can be regarded as a monograph on Taoist health and immortality.
[Incense: 18,000]
When the Huangting Scripture was included in the deduction, the stone tablet showed that all the merit points could only deduce the upper part of the Outer Landscape Scripture.
There are many Taoist works, among which the most familiar is the Tao Te Ching. Unfortunately, the Tao Te Ching is not a classic that can be cultivated, so Jiang Wen did not choose it.
Jiang Wen even collected a few thousand-year-old ginsengs, which were almost spirit medicines.
Confirming the deduction, he learned that it would take fifteen days to successfully deduce it. Jiang Wen withdrew from his consciousness and didn't pay attention to the progress.
The other ability is merit value. As long as Jiang Wen does good deeds, he can obtain merit value, and this merit value has many wonderful uses. It can deduce exercises, refine magic weapons, and even use merit value to perform various immortal magic and supernatural powers. Looking at the thirty-six methods of Tiangang and the seventy-two techniques of Earthly Fiends recorded in the statue, Jiang Wen felt a little itchy and wanted to perform them.
Probably because he had experienced the pain of losing his son, Master Li's white hair and wrinkles were obviously much more. He looked much older than when they first met, and his originally straight back was slightly hunched.
The mobile phone kept vibrating. He took out his mobile phone to check. It was the messages that others had sent him during his absence.
The time flow on both sides is different. Even if you stay in another world for seven or eight days, only two or three days will have passed here.
There are ghosts, will demons be far away? There should be gods too, right? Jiang Wen thought so.
Although he had not returned for several days, the Taoist temple was not stained with dust. It seemed that this was the effect after activating the statue, keeping the Taoist temple clean.
As long as others come to the Taoist temple to pray, he can learn the news from it. The incense enjoyed by the gods in the temple is also absorbed by this statue. As long as enough incense is collected, it can also give various blessings to the petitioners. Although it is not as mysterious as in mythology, it is still somewhat useful.
That night, after activating the statue, Jiang Wen understood what his golden finger was all about. The statue in front of him was his incarnation, connected to the gods in the Taoist temple.
When the carriage arrived in front of the Jingxu Temple, it was already dusk.
After investigating, he couldn't find the answer, so he didn't think about it anymore.
After all, there are many kinds of game in another world, and there are even more medicinal materials such as century-old ginseng.
[Merit Value: 396]
"I didn't expect I have so little merit value," Jiang Wen said speechlessly as he looked at the stone tablet.
The only thing that can be considered a good deed should be helping Li Mingxue clear his injustice this time.
"Thank you for your concern, Immortal Master," Master Li said with a wry smile. "It is because I failed to teach my son well and indulged Mingxue too much that he ended up like this."
Answering everyone's messages one by one, he tidied up the Taoist temple and then opened the door of the Taoist temple.
But he never expected that there was a person sitting in front of the Taoist temple at this moment.
