Hong Huang: I'm really not Zulong

After walking out of the restaurant, the little beggar carried a three-layer food box and bowed to thank Lin Qi.

The little beggar has a very beautiful smile, and his eyes are curved like crescent moons.

Lin Qi couldn't help but take another look.

When they first met and had a meal in Chang'an, Lin Qi never thought that his lifelong marriage would begin just because he took one more look in the crowd.

The next day, Lin Qi continued to visit Chang'an Street.

Behind him were a group of ragged child beggars.

Last night at the Chenghuang Temple, their eldest sister brought back eight leftovers and a dozen steamed buns.

Although the little beggars were not full, they were able to satisfy their hunger.

Early in the morning, under the leadership of the eldest sister, I found Lin Qi again and followed him all the way.

"Brother...they are still children..."

The girl followed Lin Qi, thinking about what she had prepared.

However, she still forgot what she wanted to say.

"It doesn't matter, we are destined to meet each other. I'm treating you today!"

Lin Qi smiled faintly.

Eating along the way, the children took care of the food, and Lynch paid the bills.

By noon, fifty or sixty beggars had gathered behind Lin Qi.

The vendors no longer hate these children today.

With smiles on their faces, they kept greeting these children.

"Would you like one of Zhu Bajie's sugar figures?"

"I want Sun Wukong's candy man!"

"Okay! I'll pinch one for you!"

"..."

Lin Qi squatted on the stall, flipping through a poorly packaged Westward Journey.

At another stall, children gathered around marshmallows, staring at the one that was about to be made.

The old man selling candied haws hurried home carrying the short-selling straw.

This section of the road has almost become a paradise for little beggars.

Many pedestrians were pointing behind me, some were just curious, some had disdain on their lips, and some had bad ideas.

Of course, more people are jealous.

One of the fortune-telling Taoist priests looked at the few coins in the bowl under the scorching sun and kept sighing.

An ascetic stood there with bare feet and an alms bowl, hesitating for a long time.

He wanted to find Lin Qi to beg for help.

However, the monk seeks alms from the Taoist priest...

"Amitofu!"

The monk kept chanting the Buddha's words under his breath, but could not take that step.

It's lunch time.

The three food stalls on the street are all occupied by little beggars.

The boss demonstrated his skills as well as those of a restaurant chef.

The dishes they cook are more affordable and no worse than those in restaurants.

Many of the dishes are even better than those in restaurants.

Lynch and the girl beggar were at a table alone.

The children were either seven or eight, or a dozen at a table.

They imitated the postures of adults, rolled up their arms and sleeves, and shouted excitedly.

"Big... big, big brother, thank you, thank you!"

The girl beggar looked at the happy children and expressed her sincere gratitude to Lin Qi.

"Buttering?"

Lin Qi was startled and initially thought she was nervous, which probably sounded like a stuttering problem.

"Big...brother, I stumble when I'm not nervous. You, you...don't mind!"

The girl noticed Lin Qi's confusion and stumbled to explain.

She didn't feel inferior because of her stuttering, but she spoke out openly.

"It's okay. You are different from others. You don't stutter when you are nervous."

Lynch smiled.

The girl also smiled and lowered her head to eat.

Throughout the afternoon, dozens of children's stomachs were round and full of food, and in the end they couldn't eat anymore.

"Brother, we are sleepy..."

A little beggar seemed to want to call the eldest sister, but after taking one look at Lin Qi, he changed his mind.

The children returned to the Chenghuang Temple and slept until seven or eight o'clock in the evening. It seemed that they were still thinking about food in their dreams, and they woke up one by one at the same time.

They knew that being able to have enough to eat was short-lived, and this kind Taoist brother would leave sooner or later.

Maybe, when I open my eyes tomorrow morning, I will start to starve again.

Lin Qi was sitting on the stone platform at the entrance of the temple, and the girls next to him were talking about their life of begging.

Occasionally, the girl smiles, just like the crescent moon setting in the sky.

Lynch also experienced the joy of helping others.

The innocence of children, the friendly kindness from the bottom of their hearts, was a joy he had never experienced in his previous life.

On the third day, Lin Qi did not leave, and the little beggars were still followed behind him.

News of the strange happenings on Chang'an Street reached the palace. After hearing about it, the emperor's only daughter led a group of guards to watch.

The whole Chang'an Street was in a state of chaos, whips were whipped to clear the way, and slow runners were all bruised and kicked to the side of the road.

Those who set up stalls will be overturned, no matter what small business they are doing.

The princess sat on a tall horse, and pedestrians knelt on both sides of the street.

The little beggars are no exception.

The little beggar who was far away from Lin Qi also suffered a severe whipping.

The people kneeling on the ground were trembling, and no one dared to show any resentment.

They are all accustomed to slavery.

Imperial power is heaven, and in their eyes, it cannot be violated or resisted.

The only one who didn't kneel was Lynch, who was standing in the middle of the street.

The princess held a riding crop in her hand and looked at Lin Qi proudly.

The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty believed in Buddhism and did not reject Taoism.

But whether they are Buddhists or Taoists, they are all subjects of the emperor.

"May I have your name?"

The princess pointed her riding crop at Lynch and asked.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord! Poor Taoist Lin Qi has met Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Lin Qi flicked the fly whisk, showing his immortal spirit!

"Click, click, click..."

The princess rode a horse and circled around Lynch.

"I have taken a liking to you as a Taoist priest with a handsome appearance and a compassionate heart. I will follow you back and preach to me."

"Infinite Heavenly Lord, Your Highness the Princess has no connection with the Tao, so it's okay not to listen!"

Lin Qi flicked the whisk again and refused directly.

The emperor's daughters all suffer from princess disease, and this daughter is no exception.

Even if she had a destiny, Lin Qi would not convert her.

"How dare you disobey me, do you want to die?"

The princess' eyes showed evil intent, and she moved the riding crop in her hand, as if she might whip it at Lin Qi at any time.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord, what the poor Taoist said is the truth. The princess has a noble body, is pampered, is arrogant and unreasonable, and does not care about the suffering of the people. She is really a wicked person. She should convert to Buddhism and ask the Buddha to understand her heart!"

Lin Qi said whatever he thought, and Hao didn't care about the princess's feelings.

As it was, he didn't need to care.

In public, she was actually described as a good-for-nothing villain by Lynch, and the princess went berserk.

"Pa bang bang..."

A series of whips were struck on Lin Qi's body, face and head without thinking!

"Infinite Heavenly Lord!"

Lin Qi did not resist, nor did he use his magical power to resist.

It took several solid hits.

However, I felt nothing at all.

Not even a single whip mark appeared.

His Hongmeng Immortal Body is already comparable to an innate spiritual treasure, how can mere mortal objects shake him at all?

He just wants to know what it feels like to be bullied by power.

After being whipped, there is no pain and the feeling is naturally not deep.

Seeing this scene, the princess was even more furious!

"This is unreasonable! Someone, please lock up this stinky Taoist priest and escort him back to the palace.

And these stinky beggars, take them all back. Aren't you compassionate? You can't even protect yourself. Let me see how you can be merciful to them!"

The guards locked up Lin Qi and others with chains, and were escorted out of Chang'an Street under the strange looks of everyone.
