A Dream of Transmigration - Chapter 29

Chapter 29

As she spoke, she sat down opposite him again and said solemnly, "Senior brother, Master asked me to pass on a few words to you."

He looked at her without asking any questions.

She thought for a moment, and after confirming that she was right, she slowly recited: "Next year at Mid-Autumn Festival, on the top of Jiuhua Mountain, five-colored lotuses will bloom, and the orchid moon will be worshipped together."

A strange glint flashed in his icy eyes, then vanished just as quickly.

"What did those words mean?" Lin Feifei didn't expect him to say it, and just muttered to herself.

She knew the first two lines, which mentioned the time and place: Mid-Autumn Festival this year, Jiuhua Mountain. But what did the last two lines, "The Five-Colored Spring opens, and the Orchid Moon pays homage," mean? Jiuhua Mountain doesn't seem to have any scenic spots with Five-Colored Springs, does it?

She put on a fawning smile: "Senior brother, since Mid-Autumn Festival is still so far away and I have nowhere to go, Master told me to follow you and learn more, what do you think..."

The subtext is: I don't have many coins left, so I'll stick with you, senior brother. This senior brother is a rich man; he can throw money around like water!

Lingyi nodded without even thinking.

Lin Feifei was delighted and couldn't help but glance at him a few more times. As she looked at him, she suddenly burst out laughing.

.

Seeing him look over, she immediately stopped laughing and tried to put on a serious face. She couldn't very well say it was because she was reminded of that cool, modern-day handsome Taoist priest version she had once conceived, holding a whisk, posing with a Photoshop stick, could she? That image didn't even qualify as one of his comics.

Lingyi didn't care, and casually asked, "When did you come down the mountain?"

"It's been more than three months." She was a little discouraged. She had been full of ambition, but she hadn't accomplished anything yet, and her senior brother had to save her once.

"How is the Xuan Tian Ba Gua Formation on the back mountain?"

Lin Feifei was stunned: "The Xuan Tian Bagua Formation?"

He looked at her: "You don't know?"

"I think I've heard of it before..." Lin Feifei recalled, then suddenly a thought flashed through her mind, "Is it the pine forest where the female ghost was imprisoned?"

He was taken aback, then frowned: "Yes."

Her screams had been mistaken for the female ghost's voice, causing panic in Yuanfu Palace, so the memory was particularly vivid. Moreover, she had encountered eerie shadows several times while passing through the pine forest.

Lin Feifei recalled the white shadow floating on the treetops that she saw when she first went there with Miaomiao, and felt a little scared: "It should be okay. I think I saw some scary things last year."

He nodded and said nothing more.

"Oh, right, Miaomiao asked me to tell you that he misses you a lot," she said, then smiled slyly, with a hint of ambiguity, "and also Senior Sister Miaoqing."

Senior Sister Miaoqing, although I don't like your arrogant attitude, I'll pass on your message for you since your boyfriend is so handsome, haha...

To everyone's surprise, Lingyi seemed completely uninterested, turning his head to look out the window. His flawless, handsome face remained indifferent, showing no sign of the expected blush.

Lin Feifei was stunned.

Is this the "interesting" eighteenth senior brother who captivated Miaoqing?

.

The Qinhuai River, stretching for ten miles, has been a place of pleasure since ancient times.

As night falls, the city is ablaze with lights, bustling with people, and adorned with colorful boats. The lights reflect on the water, creating a dreamlike and enchanting scene.

Countless women, dressed in red and white, leaned against the bow of the boat, smiling and beckoning to passing merchants, creating an atmosphere of boundless spring beauty.

The atmosphere at the banquet was vibrant with springtime. The playboys, surrounded by beautiful women, flaunted their charms. The sounds of music, songs, and laughter blended together to create a series of captivating melodies, instantly enriching their otherwise dull lives.

.

Lin Feifei hadn't expected that the Inner Qinhuai River was the main waterway in ancient times, and it was much wider than it is today.

Having completed the task assigned by her master, her naturally playful nature resurfaced. How could she not visit the Qinhuai River while in Jinling? She had intended to bring Lingyi along, but seeing his indifferent face, she couldn't bring herself to say it.

A nighttime stroll along the ancient Qinhuai River was indeed a unique experience, and she couldn't help but admire it as she walked.

Wow, so many beautiful women!

Disliking the Taoist robes as too rustic, she bought a set of men's clothing and put it on. Since she was not bad-looking, she looked quite good dressed as a man. In her words, she was "handsome and dashing, elegant and refined."

As expected, she attracted a lot of attention, with several beautiful women waving and flirting with her. Prostitutes do like to pick and choose their clients.

"Hey—" she immediately waved in that direction, calling out loudly with a lecherous look, "Beautiful lady—"

Wow!

Countless gazes swept over him, some praising, some astonished. Since ancient times, it was prostitutes who seduced their clients, yet this handsome young man openly flirted with a courtesan in front of everyone. His behavior was truly licentious, something that would have been looked down upon in ancient times.

Lin Feifei, oblivious, continued to flirt with him, her eyes sparkling with hearts. Immediately, the women at the bow of the boat smiled even more alluringly and sweetly, only to be met with disappointment and resentment when he turned and walked away after greeting them.

Despite being greeted all the way, she remained in high spirits.

The visual effects are quite good. Although the quality of these beauties is generally not very high, there are indeed some stunning beauties among them. After all, in ancient times, the prostitutes were selected. Luckily, I am not a real man.

She felt her legs were getting tired, so she finally sat down on a stone stool.

.

"...The monks of Dinglin Temple are truly extraordinary. They saw her yesterday, and Miss Qian is already better today."

"I heard that all those monks and Taoist priests were rewarded yesterday!"

"That's just how it is with wealthy tycoons..."
