Previously, when I heard this, I would feel that it was very mysterious. But now, I smiled as I looked at Li Long Fei who was beside me, “How could you take over this business?” Liu Shuai also couldn’t help but laugh at the side.

“Hehehe,” Long Fei smiled embarrassedly, “There’s nothing I can do about it. In the past, our Dragon Clan was mainly responsible of managing the rain. People always came to send us donations wishing for proper rain, but now that technology is so advanced. People don’t wish for good weathers, but request for money and positions. There are even some people who wish to be rich over night from nothing. I am astonished by their wishes, while my limited mana cannot satisfy their wishes. There was a time that I received no donations in this temple. I almost closed it. Later I accepted a job of helping them make offsprings. Since then there are some people who come and donate, only that did this temple survive”.

Listening to Long Fei talking about the wishes of the people, I couldn’t help but feel a little emotional. Zhang Chi Hang also said so. Originally, people made a wish just to gain peace of mind, and they were moderate to the outcomes. But now that people’s wishes were so unrealistic. I was not sure whose fault it was.

Just as I was thinking about this, we had already reached the Dragon King’s Hall, which was located the innermost part of the temple. As soon as we entered the store, we saw a tall dragon statue standing in the middle. I could not help praising, “What a wonderful statue!”

“Thank you!” Long Fei heard me praising the statue as if he was as happy as if I was praising him.

The two girls who were at the front had already finished bowing and placed their donations into the contribution box before leaving, leaving the three of us behind in the hall.

“Hey, Long Fei,” I suddenly felt a little awkward, and looked at Liu Shuai, “Do you think we should bow down as well?”

Liu Shuai thought for a moment, then nodded his head, “Yes, since we are here, the staff would feel strange if we do not bow.” As he spoke, he looked outside.

There were two ‘staff members’ outside the hall, watching us from time to time.

“Hey, what are you two bowing for?” Long Fei waved his hand.

“No way. You didn’t hear what the girl said just now? We should respect gods as if they are here.” I smiled and said, “Moreover, what we bow to is not only you, but also the craftsman’s spirit of the creator who built this statue. It should be fine.”

After Liu Shuai heard what I said, he also nodded his head in agreement. Seeing this, Long Fei could only agree.

“Alright. You are a true immortal. Could you teach us how to bow?” I thought it was quite interesting. I’ve never done this before, so I might as well ask the host.

“Err …” Long Fei was blanking out for a moment. “Let me think. I haven’t seen people bowing for a long time. I remember. That’s what the book said.”

After pondering for a moment, he clapped his hands, “That’s it. Look here, raise your hands horizontally …”

Just as I was about to stop him, Long Fei’s movements were really fast. As he spoke, he bowed down in a very proper manner — at least, in my eyes, his movements seemed very standard. Liu Shuai and I could say that we kowtowed due to admiration for the spirit of the creator of this god statue, but what did it matter for Long Fei to kowtow to himself?

“That’s it.” After Long Fei finished bowing, he chuckled at us.

“Benefactor.” Just as we were preparing to bow down in accordance to Long Fei’s manner, an old monk appeared beside us. He clasped his hands together and said, “Although it is said that Buddha’s teachings are spreading everywhere from the south to the north, and from the west to the east. I saw you bowing so sincerely, so I have to come in and blabber a little.”

Seeing that he was talking to him, Long Fei was stunned for a moment. Then he also put his hands together, “Please speak, Zen Master.”

“I am sure from your posture of bowing that you have learned from an expert. The entire set is thoroughly perfect.” When Long Fei heard the old monk praising him, he couldn’t help but smile at us. I thought to myself, what was him so happy about? He was actually bowing to himself.

“It’s just that…” The old monk continued, “You did not bow in the right way.”

“Hmm? Is that wrong?” Long Fei hadn’t finished laughing for us. When he heard the old monk say that he did it in a wrong way, he hurriedly asked, “Zen Master, the method I just used strictly follows — —”

“Benefactor.” The old monk said in a leisurely manner, “Your method has its rules, but that is a Taoist’s method, and we are in a Buddhist temple here. Although you are sincere in your worship, but you may have done something wrong, Dragon God—” As he spoke, the old monk looked at the statue, “Dragon God may be unhappy.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t be unhappy.” Long Fei said it without thinking.

The old monk was originally going to continue speaking, but after hearing this, his expression slightly changed as he looked at Long Fei with wide eyes.

Long Fei regretted it immediately after he finished his words, and his face was full of awkwardness, but Liu Shuai held back his laughter and did not say a word. Long Fei learned this method from a book nowhere, while it was a Taoist’s rite. So it turned to be that he was insulting his own place. Especially the last sentence, Long Fei intended to say that he was magnanimous and did not care about the tiny etiquette, but to the old monk, it sounded like he was disrespectful to the gods, and naturally, Long Fei could not say that he was the Dragon God. No matter whether the old monk would believe or not, Zhang Chi Hang had told him to keep a low profile.

Seeing Long Fei’s awkwardness, I hurriedly went up to smooth things out. “What nonsense are you talking about, although the Dragon God and the Zen Master are magnanimous — —” As I said this, I clasped my hands together and bowed to the old monk, the old monk hurriedly saluted. “But you have to be sincere. Since the old master noticed your flaws here and is willing to tell you, you might as well ask him to give you some pointers, like how to bow to the Dragon God in a right way.”

After I said that, the old monk’s expression became a lot relaxed. Long Fei immediately followed my words, “Exactly, Zen master, please teach me.”

“I am not qualified to teach you. We can exchange some pointers.” The old monk smiled and looked at me before bowing down with a face full of piety. After bowing, he looked at Long Fei and said, “This way, Benefactor, after you.”

Long Fei was helpless, and under Liu Shuai and my giggling eyes, as well as the expectant gaze of the old Zen Master, he kowtowed again.

After this, the old monk clasped his hands and left the main hall, busy with his own business. We also bowed, turned around and asked Long Fei, “What should we do now?”

“Shh.” Long Fei looked outside and no one was paying attention to us. He pointed at the door of the hall, and a thin layer of mist appeared. Liu Shuai asked in a low voice, “The Void Illusion Realm?”

“Come with me. They can’t see us now.” Long Fei said as he led us to the back of the statue.

The statue was the back door of this hall, but it was always closed. Through the window at the back door, we could see a small house behind it. There was a large table at the back of the statue, covered with a tablecloth that hung down to the floor. Long Fei took us in, then no one could see us from the outside. This cloth was really thick. Not even a speck of light could penetrate it.

“Use your phone.” I quickly turned on the flashlight on my cellphone.
