A moment later, the front yard of Mulian Temple.
"Lost? Want to stay at this temple for one night?"
Frowning slightly, the old abbot of Mulian Temple glanced at Pei Wende, who was standing behind the girls with a slightly embarrassed and helpless expression. In the end, he did not reject the girl's request.
"Since it is Almsgiver Li's request, the poor monk is naturally obligated to do so."
"But there is already a master staying in our temple today, so if this layman doesn't mind, he can stay in the same room with that master for the time being!"
Although he seemed to be talking to the girl, the old abbot's words were clearly explaining to Pei Wende.
"No problem, no problem."
Seeing this, Pei Wende quickly nodded in agreement and did not ask low-EQ questions such as "Why don't you let yourself live in a separate room?"
After all, Mulian Temple is not that big to begin with, and the monks in the temple plus this group of girls arrived.
It is already a very good thing to be able to free up a bed for myself, a stranger with unknown origins.
To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the sake of the girl, a guy like Pei Wende with unknown origins and armed with weapons would definitely not be allowed to stay overnight in the temple.
But this brings up a new problem. Pei Wende had no intention of living in Mulian Temple from the beginning.
What happened to this point was purely accidental, so what to do next, he was completely confused about what to do next.
"You're lucky, you got lost and ended up in this damn place."
She quietly approached Pei Wende, and the maid in green who first noticed him complained calmly.
"..."
Taking a step back silently, Pei Wende felt as if this girl was his natural nemesis.
She was the first to notice him in the beginning, and now she is the one who complains about him every chance he gets...
[I don’t seem to have offended this girl, right? Is this the so-called 'mismatch'? 】
With this thought in mind, Pei Wende was afraid that the girl would come forward to complain about him again, so he took a few steps back until he was completely out of the other person's sight before he felt at ease.
Almost at the same time, the girl in the front row also determined the next itinerary with the abbot, and then began to assign them one by one to the maids behind her.
Unfortunately, the maid in Tsing Yi was tasked with taking Pei Wende to the back room to arrange a place for him to stay tonight.
[Okay, is there no way to hide? 】
Looking at the maid in green who appeared in front of him again, Pei Wende had no choice but to comfort himself. At least this girl looked pretty good.
On the premise of ignoring her various complaints, it is still okay to simply make it pleasing to the eye.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
In the backyard of Mulian Temple, in the west wing.
Monk Huiji, who had stayed with the old abbot before, was now looking at the various furnishings and items in the wing attentively.
Judging from the various furnishings and ornaments in the wing, it seems that pilgrims stay in this wing all year round, so daily necessities including bedding and candles are fully prepared.
"That's weird, that's weird!"
Shaking her head gently, Hui Ji seemed to have encountered some incomprehensible problem, with a thoughtful expression on her face.
"Obviously the wing rooms are so well prepared, but yet they refuse outsiders to stay overnight. This temple is indeed very strange."
The wing rooms of temples are generally prepared for pilgrims who come to the temple to stay.
According to some conditions in the temple's wing rooms, the incense and personnel exchanges in this temple can be seen to a certain extent.
But it is precisely because of this that the current situation of Mulian Temple seems a bit strange.
From the surface, there is no doubt that Mulian Temple is a wild temple. God knows in what era it was built. It is estimated that it does not exist in the official documents.
For a temple like this, let alone the faithful men and women who have been there for a long time, it is very lucky that it has not been occupied by bandits and refugees.
But this is the Mulian Temple, but the wing rooms are neatly prepared, as if pilgrims often come to stay.
"Amitabha, let's stay one night and take a look! Maybe things are not as complicated as I thought."
After reciting a Buddha's name softly, Huiji was about to turn around and meditate when she suddenly heard a burst of footsteps and voices in front of her.
Judging from the voices, it seemed that the people talking were a boy and a girl.
The man seemed a bit taciturn, only occasionally responding or answering.
The woman was a bit lively and venomous, and the man was speechless with every word she said.
In Huiji's view, the man's long silence was due to the fact that the two parties were not familiar with each other.
"Are you a pilgrim here?"
Listening to the girl's sharp tongue and complaints with great interest, Hui Ji gradually restored the whole incident in her mind through the conversation between the two parties.
The man seemed to be a young hunter. He didn't know why he got lost here, and he happened to meet the girls who came to Mulian Temple to offer incense and fulfill their wishes.
Then with the help of the owner of this group of girls, the young lady of the Li family, the young hunter was able to stay at Mulian Temple for one night and leave here at dawn tomorrow.
However, I don’t know if it was Huiji’s illusion.
He always felt that the venomous girl seemed to have been emphasizing the rhetoric of "leave here immediately after dawn" and "stay in your room at night".
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Remember, leave here immediately after dawn tomorrow."
Looking at Pei Wende who still had a "confused" look on his face, the maid in green clothes raised her voice intentionally or unintentionally, but she still maintained the feeling of aloofness on her face.
"The old abbot reluctantly allowed you to stay overnight for the sake of my little lady. Please don't cause any more trouble to our little lady."
"Also, don't leave your room at night, otherwise I will definitely report you to the police."
It seemed that he was warning Pei Wende not to have any unnecessary thoughts about these girls, but Pei Wende always felt that there seemed to be some deep meaning in the other party's words.
But before Pei Wende could verify his intuition, the two of them had already arrived in the west wing.
"Here we are, this is where you will stay tonight."
Standing at the door of the wing, the maid in green accused the room on Pei Wende's right and said very skillfully.
"There are quilts and candles inside. If you need anything else, you can tell me in advance and I will ask the masters in the temple to bring it to you."
After finishing speaking, the maid in green didn't give Pei Wende time to react, turned around and left the west wing, leaving Pei Wende stunned in place for a long time.
[How does this feel... just like her own home? 】
