After Taoist Tian was stunned, he also bowed solemnly.

This living Buddha, who has not known how long he has spent, finally passed away after his last wish. Perhaps he has already gone to the Western Paradise...

But the opportunity was really awkward. As soon as I finished talking, the Zen master passed away. These monks outside would not suspect that they were robbing treasures and killing people...

After all, I still hold a bowl in my hand...

His eyes glanced at him with some guilt, but fortunately these monks were not so unreasonable. They just kept closing their eyes and reciting the verses of their mouths, regardless of whether they were going or staying.

"It's fine." Taoist Tian breathed a sigh of relief. He bowed three times with respect to this senior who had a righteous mind until his death, and turned around and left the temple where only the sounds of monks chanting scriptures remain.

After Zen Master Lingyou left, I am afraid that this temple will no longer have its former reputation. It may be buried in the deep mountains and forests, and no one will care about it anymore...

At this time, Yuanyang City Shengjia.

Sheng Yunting was lying in front of the window of his room and sighing. The servant behind him handed a book timidly, "Third Young Master, it's time to read..."

"What a broken book!" Sheng Yunting slapped him on the ground in annoyance, raised his head and looked at the clouds in the sky, feeling depressed, "Aren't it just that two animals were released? Isn't it that angry?"

"Young Master, your monthly expenses are already 300 taels!" The servant couldn't help but reminded in a low voice, "And as soon as the imperial examination failed, you went to buy those beasts and released them. The mistress was naturally angry and wanted to lock you in this room..."

"Oh... what does mom know? How can I wait for those spiritual creatures to come back to repay their kindness?" Sheng Yunting muttered.

Perhaps it was because of the habit of releasing the product. As soon as he got free, he couldn't help but release two more animals, but when he got home, he was caught by his parents.

I felt helpless. Just as I was about to turn around, I saw a familiar figure gradually approaching not far from the house. I suddenly felt refreshed and hurried back to the desk and looked like I was studying hard.

The servant who was still not touching his head was stunned just as he heard the second young master's heartfelt laughter coming from behind him, "Yunting, you don't have to pretend anymore, I have seen your second brother!"

"Second Young Master!" The servant immediately greeted respectfully.

"My second brother understands me..." Sheng Yunting scratched his head, but did not continue to pretend to be studying, and turned around and looked at the handsome and burly young man at the door.

The second young master is named Sheng Fengjie. He has been strong since childhood. He went to the army to become a military officer in the early years. He used to be stationed outside and rarely went home. Recently, he got free and happened to encounter this imperial examination, so he went home.

Perhaps it was because he also didn't like these literati things, so he didn't force these third brothers to study like his parents.

However, Sheng Yunting did not like this second brother very much because he would always persuade him to join the army like him and serve the motherland.

For example, this moment.

"Third brother, it doesn't matter if you really don't like studying. Go to the army with me, play guns and swords, and show masculinity, wouldn't it be happier than it is!" Sheng Fengjie said with a smile.

"That's not necessary." Sheng Yunting quickly shook his head. Looking at his second brother's dark body due to long-term martial arts training and the strong muscles on his arms, and looking at his thin arms, he wanted to continue to eat here and wait for death.

"Oh, third brother, then you neither want to follow the literature nor the martial arts. What do you want to do in the future?" Sheng Fengjie looked at the incompetent brother and sighed.

Sheng Yunting was speechless for a moment, his eyes dodged slightly, after all, even he himself was still confused.

Perhaps even he himself subconsciously knew that almost absurd thoughts such as releasing animals and expecting monsters to repay kindness are just a means of escaping reality.

He actually knew that this was almost impossible. The storybook is a storybook, and the legend is a legend, and there is almost no possibility of intersecting reality.

Just as he is the most mediocre person, just as he is the third son of the Sheng family, countless people around him have high hopes for him, hoping that he can stand out and live up to the glory brought by this identity.

However, who would consider himself? He is obviously just the most ordinary person!

His head is not smart or stupid, his body is not strong or weak, his face is a bit handsome, but he is not as handsome as a handsome man. If he put aside the identity of the third son of the Sheng family, he would probably be just a mortal who is indifferent to everyone.

Just because I liked reading some books with words more than my two brothers in my childhood, my parents hoped to take the imperial examinations and win the top scorer by themselves. But this was obviously impossible!

I don’t know when he learned to escape from reality, deliberately not study hard, deliberately wander around, and refuse to focus on the imperial examination. This may be the manifestation of his not wanting to admit defeat, not wanting to admit that he is just an ordinary person, wanting to tell those who are staring at him in secret, and wanting to tell his parents, "Look, I am not too stupid to pass the exam, but I don’t want to study hard like those nerds, so I just don’t take the exam seriously."

This method that almost deceives others is also his only way to escape the cruel reality. Among them, the so-called ghost beyond his cognition has become one of the shortcuts in his heart that may be able to escape this vicious cycle.

Perhaps it was the only spiritual sustenance he did not want to succumb to reality and was never willing to give up.

"If there are really monsters who come back to repay their kindness, maybe I can get the top scorer as well, maybe it may not be possible..." Sometimes, he would think so self-deprecatingly.

Just as he knew that perhaps he would never wait to come back to repay his kindness in his life, it was impossible for him to be the top scorer.

Sheng Fengjie naturally did not notice the conflicting thoughts in his younger brother's heart, but suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, I heard that you have had a close contact with the son-in-law of the Su family recently?"

"Yes. What's wrong?" Sheng Yunting didn't understand why his brother suddenly mentioned this matter, and he was a little confused.

"It's not a big deal. I just heard about the Su family by chance, especially the son-in-law. There is a guy with a certain background in the mansion that seems to want to deal with them. Remember not to get too close to him in the future, otherwise there will be some minor trouble."

"Hmm? What's going on? Tell me quickly!"

Sheng Yunting suddenly became a little nervous. After all, Brother Du is his rare friend. He heard that the other party might have trouble, so he was naturally a little anxious...
