The Buddha's 728 sacred sites

m and said, "It's strange to call you 'husband,' isn't it How many people in modern times call their partners 'husband' It's more like a joke." 。Cheng Banxian was stunned for a moment, then immediatel..."What's going on" I peered out the window, wrapped in Jiang Qiyun's outer robe.

Jiang Qiyun shook his head slightly and said in a low voice, "I set up a barrier on this small attic, and I didn't notice anything unusual outside."

My phone vibrated, it was my brother calling. I hurried downstairs to the attic to check.

My brother stood at the door of Mrs. Lin's room, whispering something to a security guard, who looked utterly helpless.

"We just came running at the call. We didn't find any suspicious persons outside the courtyard." The security personnel said.

My brother saw me and immediately pulled me aside and whispered, "Mrs. Lin seemed to have had a nightmare and said she found a thief in her room. How is that possible There are security personnel outside the courtyard, how could a thief get in Besides, this is the core area of the Shen family, and Shen family disciples are patrolling outside at night."

"Where's Yan Qin" I looked around.

"She was in there with Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin seems to be worrying about a lot of things lately, she hasn't been sleeping well. She changed environments today, maybe she had a nightmare, dreamed about something, felt like there was someone in the room, and immediately pressed the alarm. The security personnel outside rushed in. I just asked, there was nothing unusual in the room."

Mrs. Lin's family consists of influential figures, her husband and children are all powerful individuals. As a "good wife," she faces significant pressure herself.

There are very few people around the Shen family this week. Logically, there shouldn't be any petty thieves coming back to bother them. With so many disciples in the Shen family, wouldn't a thief be caught and have his legs broken

Even demons and ghosts probably wouldn't dare come back to the Heavenly Venerable's temple, right The Shen family lives on the Heavenly Venerable's territory after all.

My brother said, "I'm not convenient to go in. You go in and ask about the situation, and comfort Mrs. Lin. It's not easy to get her out of the house, so don't make things unpleasant."

I nodded and went inside.

Lin Yanqin was sitting by the moon-shaped bed, whispering softly to Mrs. Lin.

I've found that the more well-mannered and high-status individuals are, the softer their speech tends to be. This is because they don't need to shout to demonstrate their presence.

Just like Lin Yanqin, even in a crowd of socialites and wealthy daughters, she can stand out in a pair of flats.

"Mrs. Lin" I greeted softly.

Lin Yanqin immediately beckoned me to come in and sit.

This ancient-style room, complete with beaded curtains, folding screens, and drapes, elegantly and gracefully shields the occupants from prying eyes.

I moved the small stool from the Eight Immortals table and sat down by the bed.

“ ......Mu Xiaoqiao, as cultivators, you should be able to see many things, right I heard from Yanhuan that your husband is not an ordinary person. We can't see him, and I don't believe in such existence, but I also have reverence, so...so I didn't interfere with Yanqin's marriage, but I am also very worried...Yanqin is, after all, just an ordinary child to you—" Mrs. Lin rubbed her temples, looking exhausted.

Her husband is an extraordinary man, and her son is also a very deep person. She can only worry blindly about her husband and son's careers but can't help much. Now her daughter has come into contact with a circle that is difficult for ordinary people to reach.

She must have a hard time. I guess she worries too much, so she can't sleep well.

"Mrs. Lin, you don't need to worry so much. Everyone has their own destiny, or else they wouldn't have met and known each other. Although my brother might not say anything on the surface, he is actually very nervous about Yanqin. He has been working hard to change the focus of our family business for Yanqin and hopes to cooperate with Mr. Lin and Lin Yanhua to do something beneficial to the country. They get along well, and our family also likes Yanqin very much. You can rest assured about this." I said in a low voice.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Mrs. Lin sighed and raised her hand to smooth her cascading hair.

She usually wore her hair in a bun, but now that it was let down, it looked much softer.

I noticed she was wearing a jade Buddha pendant around her neck. It was warm and smooth, with translucent material.

She met my gaze, touched her jade Buddha pendant, and smiled: “Me For the sake of those two, I'd prostrate myself before any god or buddha. Temples, Taoist temples, I've donated a lot of incense money.”

I smiled, most people are like that, not devoutly believing, but with a gentle reverence.

"Your pendant is so beautiful, it must be very rare, right" I complimented.

She raised her hand and smiled, "It's nothing too symbolic, just a visit to the jade market. The saleswoman said 'Men wear Guanyin, women wear Buddha', I don't know if it's a saying or something more profound, so I bought a Buddha head as an ornament. It's also more understated."

I don't know much about Buddhist knowledge, but looking at the material of this Buddha head, it must be so good that Madam Lin often wears it, which is why it looks so warm and lustrous.

I think such a spiritual thing as jade can only be cultivated so well by someone with a kind and pure heart.

I chatted with her for a while, sharing some things on my mind. Mrs. Lin's smile seemed much more serene.

I let Yanqin sleep with her mother tonight and brought them a door.

Jiang Qiyun stood beside the artificial mountain landscape in the courtyard, watching the fish.

In a small artificial pond were some carp. My brother and Jiang Qiyun were talking there.

I walked over, and my brother whispered, "Your husband said there's a strange feeling in this courtyard."

Jiang Qiyun replied, "There's no immediate threat, but I always feel a strange aura. Ordinary people can't sense it, so we need to observe."

"So... we take turns watching" I asked.

It is still several hours until dawn.

Jiang Qiyun glared at me: "Do you need to stay up all night Go to sleep obediently. You can see the whole courtyard from the attic too."

Okay, Your Majesty, the Emperor who doesn't need to sleep, you have the final say.

My pregnancy symptoms are starting to show prominently now. I sleep very deeply in the second half of the night. I could normally summon ghost servants to guard the four corners of the courtyard, but Madam Lin and Lin Yanqin have a stronger aura. Summoning ghost servants would increase the yin energy, which would be detrimental to their health.

Until dawn broke, nothing unusual happened in the courtyard. Jiang Qiyun leaned down and touched my lips lightly. I mumbled and waved at him: "… I want to sleep a little longer. Come early tonight, you might still have something going on..."

He chuckled softly, whispering, "So lazy, didn't even bother with morning class"

Oh... still have to do morning class...

I struggled to my feet, listening to the morning bell ringing outside. I said to Jiang Qiyun, "Why aren't you busy returning to your post today"

"The Empress is feeling unwell, so I'll stay and keep watch for a while. Is there anything you need" he said with a raised eyebrow.

I'm not feeling unwell, I just want to sleep in. Even when the Emperor acts recklessly, he does it so confidently.

After sending off the revered god with repeated kisses, I tidied up downstairs and performed morning prayers with the disciples of the Shen family. After class was over, the disciples of the Shen family went up the mountain one after another to clean the Taoist temple and the mountain gate.

Mrs. Lin particularly liked this daily "big cleaning" spirit and led Lin Yanqin around to meet everyone in the Shen family. I went to greet each member of the Shen family one by one, so I didn't accompany them.

A more senior member of the Shen family greeted me with a few polite words before lowering their voice and asking, " … I wonder what the head of the family thinks of that little shrimp"

Huhwith excitement: "Miss Mu! Miss Mu's leader! You... you actually came back!"He was so agitated that his steps faltered, it was clear he was under immense mental strain."Grandmother Shen is in charge....
