MTL - The Alternate World Is Too Dangerous: I Hide In Reality And Rule!-Chapter 15 The reason for the instability of the soul

  Chapter 15 Reasons for unstable soul

   "Master, Mr. Lin is here."

   "Why is he here again?" Daoist Ding Xuan looked disgusted

   "Mr. Lin bought the house next door to our Taoist temple. He came to give gifts as a neighbor."

   "Gifts?"

  Daoist Master Dingxuan heard these two words, and his disgusted face turned pale instantly, and he walked out quickly.

   "Mr. Lin is really polite, Dawu, I still don't serve tea to Mr. Lin."

   "Thank you, Daoist."

   After a while, Dawu came over with tea, Taoist Dingxuan said with a smile: "I don't have any good tea in this Taoist temple. Don't dislike a cup of rough tea, Mr. Lin."

   "The Taoist priest is modest..." Lin Ye sipped his tea in the same manner as the ancients while being polite, and could not continue the rest of the sentence. It was indeed quite rough, with a bitter taste.

Daoist Dingxuan also took the teacup handed over by his apprentice, blew on it but didn't drink it, and looked at the wooden box Lin Ye put on the table. I took the opportunity to lift the lid of the wooden box.

The next moment, Daoist Dingxuan straightened his eyes a little, retracted his sleeves, and said to the side with great enlightenment: "Master, I remembered that last time a pilgrim from a tea shop left a few taels of good tea when he came to burn incense. Give it to Mr. Lin."

  The corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. How could the old Taoist have forgotten that he didn't intend to treat himself with good tea at all. It was because he saw the silver taels in his wooden box that his attitude towards him changed.

The wooden box is not big, and it only contains ten taels of silver. This time he brought five hundred taels, and he spent more than one hundred taels to buy the house, and there are more than three hundred taels left, which is to use money to smash the old Taoist priest Yes, but you can't just throw a hundred taels straight away.

   Soon, Dawu served two cups of tea again, and even changed the cups, which had exquisite patterns.

  Pick up the teacup, the tea is fragrant, take a sip, and the fragrance will remain in your teeth.

  The old Taoist is not a human being.

  Lin Ye cursed in his heart, and the old Taoist also drank this time. Lin Ye put down his teacup, and the old Taoist also put down his teacup. The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

   "Ahem, Mr. Lin bought a new house, and the old man, as a neighbor, must also bring a gift."

  The old Taoist stood up and walked towards the Sanqing Hall of the Taoist Temple. After a while, he came back with a talisman in his hand.

   "Mr. Lin, this is a town house talisman. It is the old Taoist congratulations to Mr. Lin for buying a house."

   "Thank you, Daoist."

Lin Ye was not polite to the old Taoist either. After receiving the talisman, he said worriedly, "Master Taoist, you said that my soul is unstable and I can easily see ghosts. Now that the world is chaotic, people die every day. I am really afraid in my heart. I don’t know if the Taoist priest can save me.”

  The old Taoist sighed, and said, "Mr. Lin, the old Taoist will tell you a story."

  Lin Ye: "All ears."

   "Forty years ago, a pilgrim came to the Taoist temple to ask my master for advice. It was also because his soul was unstable, but my master didn't take action to solve it. Does Mr. Lin know the reason?"

   "That person has done a lot of evil?" Lin Ye guessed.

   "That's not true. This person was just an ordinary farmer a few years ago. In a few years, he suddenly became rich. He bought a house and married several wives. Although his wealth made people jealous, he never caused any harm."

  Lin Ye frowned. Since he didn't do anything evil, why did the old master refuse to save him?

"I was also puzzled about this matter at the time. After the pilgrim left, I asked the master why, and the master told me that this person has no skills, no talents, but suddenly became rich. The source of the money is mysterious, and his soul is unstable. , the two must be related, this kind of person is hard to save."

Speaking of this, the old Taoist gave Lin Ye a meaningful look, and continued: "The old Taoist didn't understand what the master said at the time, and it wasn't long before the pilgrim went to the Taoist temple again, and after the master explained the danger, he finally confessed his method of getting money. .”

"This person was a tenant a few years ago. When he was guarding the field at night, he saw a wild fox appearing. He followed the wild fox and found the cave where the wild foxes lived. He blocked all the wild foxes in the cave and prepared to When they caught them all in one catch, one of the old foxes came out with the money and begged for mercy."

"The old fox not only gave him silver, but also told him that in the future, as long as he brings poultry, he can trade gold, silver and treasures with them. This person naturally agreed when he heard it. By trading with the wild fox, this person Earn money and live a rich life.”

"These wild foxes can't conjure gold and silver out of thin air. These gold and silver are all excavated from the coffins of the yin house in the deep mountains. Although he didn't steal the money that this person collected, those ghosts can't settle the account. In his head, but after all, he has a relationship, and the ghosts have been close for a long time, and the soul is unstable due to this influence."

   "After my master heard about it, he told him the solution. First, he would burn joss sticks and paper money to the ghosts whose graves were dug, and apologize, and then cut off contact with those wild foxes."

   "This person also complied, and did what my master said. He broke off contact with the wild fox, and also burned paper money to apologize to those ghosts. In addition, my master took action to stabilize his soul."

   "Half a year later, the old Taoist remembered this matter and asked my master about his current situation. Only then did he learn from my master that this person lost his soul three months ago and passed away two months ago."

   "This person went from being frugal to extravagant. He couldn't live in poverty for a long time, and he didn't have any skills. After the family ran out of money, he went to find that wild fox again, thinking that he would only do it once and then stop. If there is one, there will be two..."

  Daoist Dingxuan said with emotion, Lin Ye understood, the old Taoist was pointing at himself.

   Seeing that he spends so much money generously, the old Taoist also suspects that he, like the people in the story, has received improper money and will not be able to receive it later.

  However, to make money by yourself is to take advantage of the price difference between the two worlds, and it has nothing to do with these goblins and ghosts.

   But what made Lin Ye a little troubled was that he couldn't tell the old man the truth. Obviously, if he didn't explain the source of the money, the old man wouldn't help him.

   "Master Dao, the origin of my money is clean and has nothing to do with goblins and ghosts. I can guarantee this."

  Lin Ye was very sincere, but the old Taoist priest just nodded with a smile, as if what you said was true and I would not argue with you.

   "Dare to ask, what are the ways to solve the instability of the soul?" Lin Ye could only ask in another way.

The old Taoist did not perfunctory this time, but said seriously: "If the soul is unstable, it should be nourishing the soul and strengthening the soul. There are two kinds of nourishing the soul and strengthening the soul. Pills, the requiem talisman that the old Taoist gave to Mr. Lin before, are external things."

  Cultivation and martial arts?

  Lin Ye knew that Qingfeng Guan should be practice, and practicing martial arts was like that of the elder brother. Thinking of this, he thought of the martial arts secret book that the elder brother gave him.

   "Is it all right to practice martial arts?"

   "Mr. Lin's thoughts in his heart can be guessed by the old way. People who practice martial arts have strong yang energy and their souls are naturally stable, but this requires a long process. In addition, it is difficult for people with unstable souls to practice martial arts with twice the effort!"

   "Master Daoist, I am very interested in cultivation, no..."

   "Cultivation all the way, the fate of immortality is elusive, the difficulty is more difficult than practicing martial arts, Mr. Lin lives a rich life, why bother to suffer so much."

  Daoist Dingxuan interrupted Lin Ye, and the corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. He didn't want to suffer, but the key problem was that his soul was unstable now.

   "Master Taoist, I think the statues of the gods in the Taoist temple are a bit dilapidated. I would like to pay to rebuild the statues."

  Lin Ye decided to make a big move, but what he didn't expect was that Daoist Dingxuan, who was still concerned about money before, didn't change his expression at all when he heard his words.

   "Thank you Mr. Lin, the patriarch is merciful, how can he care about these externals, if the heart is sincere, even rotten wood will have spirits, if the heart is not sincere, even the gold-plated elephant will have no divinity."

  Lin Ye had no choice but to say that this old Taoist really didn't care about anything, so he had to explain seriously: "Master Daoist, I have some unavoidable difficulties that I can't explain clearly, but I can guarantee that it has nothing to do with ghosts."

Daoist Dingxuan suddenly showed a sneer on his face, and said: "Since Mr. Lin said so, the old Taoist will not hide it anymore. Mr. Lin said that he has no dealings with ghosts and ghosts, so why did he go out for a while and silver taels appeared out of thin air, and the souls appeared again?" How unstable is it?"

  Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "How unstable is my soul?"

   "That's right." The old man said firmly.

  My soul turned out to be a little unstable, but I didn't do anything in the other world, except buy a house.

   But buying a house can never lead to instability of the soul, what else do you do besides buying a house?

  Back to the modern world…

Snapped!

  Lin Ye patted himself on the head

  He understood that the instability of his soul was related to time travel, and the back and forth travel between the two worlds caused his soul to become unstable.

   Then this problem is unsolvable.

   Unless you don't cross.

  Lin Ye looked at Daoist Dingxuan, and asked earnestly, "Master Daoist, how much more unstable is my soul this time than before?"

   "It's a little worse, but it's not to the point of losing your soul."

  After listening to Daoist Dingxuan's answer, Lin Ye knew that every time he traveled, his soul would be unstable.

  I want to reduce the number of crossings.

   "Thank you, Daoist, for reminding me."

  Lin Ye cupped his fists, and instead of following the old Taoist ink, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the Taoist temple.

   "Master, are we really not going to help?" The little Taoist Dawu looked at Lin Yeli's back, a little unhappy, Mr. Lin is so kind, he gave them so many things from the Taoist temple.

   "Hey, the world is chaotic now, and we Qingfeng Temple can't protect ourselves."

  Dao Xuan Ding sighed and walked into the Sanqing Hall, kowtowing to the statue of the Patriarch.

   "Master Patriarch, it's not that the disciple doesn't want to change your idol, but I'm afraid that it will cause you to lose your old statue."

  …

  …

  Looking at the house next door, Lin Ye looked at the gear icon on the panel. If he wanted to solve the problem of unstable souls traveling back and forth, it seemed that he had to thoroughly understand this panel.

  This gear, even if it is Pandora's Box, he must at least understand it first.
