Chapter 79: Chapter 73: The Junior Sister Returns to the Temple with Two Major Advantages
What?
Hearing Granny Wang’s words, Wang Pingping couldn’t believe her ears.
"Mom, did you see wrong...?"
She was fine just now, how did she suddenly get an oral ulcer?
This doesn’t make scientific sense!
The livestream viewers were just as perplexed as she was.
"Holy cow! Just in the time it takes to drink a sip of water, how did it fast forward so much?"
"Don’t even mention drinking water, I just blinked, and in the next second, her mouth was full of mouth ulcers."
"The most absurd thing is that she was eating snacks one moment, and the ulcers seemed to appear in an instant."
Meanwhile, the seasoned fans of Changchun Temple were casting a disdainful glance around, as if looking at uncivilized barbarians.
"Seems like no one trusts the incense from my Brother Sect Leader’s house?"
"With other places, the concern is whether it’s effective or not; at our Changchun Temple, the only issue is whether it’s mystical."
The viewers smacked their lips, seriously pondering.
That seems to make some sense.
"It’s like jumping off a cliff only to be caught by a dead tree, but the tree creaks under the pressure."
"No buffer period at all, this foodie girl is going to suffer."
"But why did it happen all at once? I still don’t get it."
Ning An looked at the comments section, rolling his eyes nearly to the sky.
He’s a Daoist, not a doctor!
Besides, it was produced by the system, what’s it got to do with him?
"Little Daoist, I... I..."
Looking at the emotional Wang Pingping, Ning An explained leisurely:
"Layperson, before offering incense, I mentioned that wishing comes with a price. It seems your full mouth of oral ulcers is your price."
However, Ning An didn’t expect it to be so quick this time, not even giving a buffer period.
Seeing Ning An’s determined gaze, Wang Pingping was almost in tears.
Food is her life; how can she live without snacks!
"Little Daoist, I don’t want it anymore. Can I ask the Patriarch to take it back?"
Good lord!
Ning An wanted to open her skull and see what her brain was made of.
"Why don’t you burn some incense and ask the Patriarch?"
Ning An’s words successfully amused the viewers in the livestream.
"Haha, give Changchun Temple a suggestion, quickly issue a one-click undo button, I’m dying of laughter."
"Patriarch: No refunds or exchanges after sale."
"Don’t say it, this time it seems to be effective, this full mouth of oral ulcers, only going out, not in, she will definitely lose weight."
Wang Pingping, however, was on the verge of tears.
She managed not to lose weight in the food desert of Germany, thanks to her insatiable appetite.
Now with a mouth full of ulcers, she can’t even eat crawfish, skewers, spicy beef... not to mention even drink carbonated drinks.
This price is too heavy.
She initially thought it would be like taking laxatives, speeding up her digestive and excretory functions.
But...
She didn’t want to be blocked from eating!
However, thinking further, she realized she lacked self-control, so by being unable to eat, she should slim down quickly.
As long as she can lose weight...
She would endure the pain happily.
After figuring this out, Wang Pingping, enduring the pain in her mouth, thanked Ning An and left with Granny Wang.
After the mother and daughter left, it was getting late. After seeing off the last incense burner, Ning An eagerly returned to his room to claim his reward.
"System, claim reward."
[Ding! Two anomalies successfully reset today!]
[Rewarding host with one instance of using the Five Ghosts control without injury; rewarding host with a Fortune Card.]
[Note: The Fortune Card can temporarily change a person’s fortune, making good luck even better and bad luck worse!]
Oh wow.
This Fortune Card is quite something.
Ning An blinked, looking at the light blue card that suddenly appeared in his hand, saying:
"Interesting."
After claiming the reward, Ning An went to practice cultivation.
...
Pop! Crackle!
Early the next morning, sounds of bones cracking came from Ning An’s bedroom.
Probably because his cultivation had reached a certain level, after practicing all night, he felt refreshed and not at all tired.
Soon, Ning An began a leisurely day.
Not long after opening, only a stick of incense later, several tourists walked in.
"Such ripe leeks, so green."
Seeing this, Ning An nodded with satisfaction.
Meanwhile.
Not far from Changchun Temple.
A young woman in a large straw hat, holding a plastic machete, dressed in a simple Daoist robe.
The woman looked about twenty, with delicate features, a swan’s neck, even the loose robe couldn’t hide her assets, clearly a beauty in the making.
But this beauty, with a tense face, gritted her small tiger teeth looking at the temple not far away.
The incense burners nearby, thinking she was a Daoist here to challenge, kept their distance.
But in fact...
She was Ning An’s junior, who had traveled with their master a half year ago, which is why only Ning An was usually seen.
At this time, the woman pouted, trying her best to appear fierce:
"Damn Ning An, you actually dared to scam even my money, hmph!"
"If you can’t give me an explanation, I’ll make you pay today!"
Saying this, she headed angrily towards Changchun Temple.
...
Meanwhile, Ning An was still happily interacting with the viewers.
Seeing a request to join the broadcast, Ning An clicked into it casually.
Only to see a haggard-looking lady appear on the screen.
Her eyes were red, crying uncontrollably.
"Master Ning, please, save my son."
"Ah? Layperson, speak slowly, let me hear the whole story."
Ning An was caught off guard by the lady’s plea for help.
In emergencies, shouldn’t you call the police? What’s reaching out to a Daoist going to do?
"Master Ning, half a month ago my son was taken by a friend on a trip to the south, said it was a company benefit, just two of them, but soon my son vanished. Later the police said, my son was taken to a district."
"Many people say my son is dead, even if not, he’ll never see daylight again, but I don’t believe it, I carried him for nine months after all, our bones may be broken but the tendons are still connected, I can feel he’s alive and well!"
In the livestream, most viewers sighed at the lady’s words and comforted her.
But there were also many keyboard warriors, who sneered coldly.
"Auntie, in this day and age, how could your son be so careless, not even a bit cautious?"
"In a district, it’s one of two outcomes, either silently dying or being drained until dying, getting kidneys removed, electrocuted, beaten up are routine, honestly, it’d be better to just die."
"I think, in such situations, you should be seeking help from the police. Seeking a Daoist? In matters like this, the police are surely more useful than a Daoist!"
