Chapter 2608: Chapter 2609: Turning the Tables on the Enemy

Upon hearing the police say this, Liu Peng’s heart leaped with joy.

This way, I won’t have to get beaten up.

"Come, let’s talk over here," Lin Yi said cheerfully:

"No matter what, I’m still their senior, so they have to give me some face. Otherwise, I’ll lose my authority in front of them."

Not giving them much time to consider, Lin Yi called them to the side and then took out his credentials.

"We’re all on the same side here, give me some face."

...

Meanwhile, although Liu Peng was beaten to a pulp, he felt secretly proud.

He’s gotten himself into such a state, adding insult to injury. Five years won’t be enough, he’s over-achieved his mission.

Thinking about the injuries now, it’s no big deal.

A few minutes later, the three of them returned.

Liu Peng’s posture seemed a lot straighter, waiting for them to take Lin Yi away.

"Since you’ve resolved this matter privately, write a reconciliation agreement by hand, then both parties sign and fingerprint it, and this matter is considered resolved."

"Huh?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Peng was stunned, unable to react for a long time.

What’s going on, this was not how the script was supposed to go!

"Officer, I’ve been beaten like this, how can it be considered resolved?"

"Didn’t you say you fell yourself, why are you now saying you were beaten?" The policeman said sternly:

"Are you joking with us!"

"No no no, I don’t mean that, I’m just..."

"You’re just what? You admitted yourself that the injuries were from falling, and said you wouldn’t pursue it further. What more do you want to say?"

"This..."

Liu Peng was dumbfounded, filled with grievance but unable to express it, almost ready to cry.

Soon, Zhuang Xiaoyun wrote a reconciliation agreement by hand, and then both signed and fingerprinted it, perfectly resolving the matter.

"You’ve signed the reconciliation agreement, this matter ends here. We’ll be leaving now."

The two policemen didn’t linger either and left with the reconciliation agreement.

"Both our Taoist temples are on Longhu Mountain, we should communicate and visit more often. Don’t leave," Li Yongnian said.

"I, I have other matters to attend to, let’s talk about communication later."

After saying that, Liu Peng dashed off, afraid of getting beaten again.

"Junior brother, I really didn’t misjudge you," Zhang Youfu said:

"Actually, with my abilities, helping you resolve this is easy, but I wanted to test you. You did well, your future is bright."

"Thank you eight generations of ancestors."

"Senior uncle, you’re truly bold and skilled, to even have him concede in defeat," Zhuang Xiaoyun said, patting her chest, "I nearly died of fright just now."

Lin Yi chuckled and said:

"After this incident, I suspect the people from Zhengyi Temple won’t dare to cause trouble again. Let’s just focus on preparing for the temple fair."

"What about you?"

"I plan to go home, see the wife and kids."

"Okay then, take care, senior uncle."

Lin Yi nodded, ready to leave, but just as he was about to go, Zhang Youfu stopped him.

"Junior brother, don’t rush off yet."

"Is there something else?"

"I’ll escort you out."

Lin Yi frowned slightly, sensing Zhang Youfu had more to say, and nodded in agreement.

The two headed outside the Blessed Land Gate, Zhang Youfu said earnestly:

"Junior brother, your skills are excellent, but you’re too quick to act violently; that’s not good. One must be calm and composed to understand the greater path."

Lin Yi didn’t say anything. Zhang Youfu had said similar things before, just not as bluntly as today.

"I understand what you mean."

"Are you eager to get home?"

"Not too eager."

"I want to take you to a place that might be helpful to you."

"Okay."

They arrived together at Shangqing Town at the foot of the mountain, where Lin Yi saw a vast vegetable garden ahead.

With the eve of spring, nearby farmers were already tilling the soil and sowing seeds.

"Why bring me here?"

"This vegetable garden belongs to Shangqing Palace. Almost everything we eat comes from here."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi finally understood.

"No wonder the vegetarian dishes are so tasty; they’re all purely organic."

"That’s right."

"So why bring me here?"

"I, your senior brother, want to teach you how to cultivate yourself. Be patient in being and doing, or you won’t see the larger path."

"You don’t mean to have me farm, do you?"

"Your comprehension is indeed high. Follow the farmers nearby, turn the soil over and learn to sow seeds. This is an invaluable experience in participating in the entire process of nurturing myriads of life. You must understand your senior brother’s good intentions."

"So, I have to learn to till the soil and sow seeds before I can go home, right?"

"Yes, this is the test your senior brother has left for you."

"Alright."

"Go ahead."

The two of them went their separate ways; Zhang Youfu was also preparing to head back.

"Daoist Master, you’re here."

Just stepping out of the vegetable garden, a swarthy man approached.

His name was Wang Xiaodong, hired by Zhang Youfu as a foreman.

His main task was to connect with people and help Shangqing Palace farn the land.

"You mentioned before that a worker was not well and went home to retire. Today, I’ve brought you someone to help till the land until the sowing is done; you won’t need to hire anyone else."

"No need, as long as someone can help, that’s fine."

"Then that settles it," Zhang Youfu said:

"I’ve organized everything here, I’ll be heading back first."

"Alright, Daoist Master, take your time."

After chatting a few words, Zhang Youfu left.

But upon returning to Shangqing Palace, he received a call from Wang Xiaodong.

"Daoist Master, the person you brought is incredible."

"Hmm? Incredible in what way? Did he start a fight with you?"

"You’re mistaken, I mean his farming skills are superb," Wang Xiaodong said appreciatively:

"When I first saw him, I thought he was too delicate to do anything, but it turns out he’s an excellent farmer. Not only did he teach us how to quickly till the land, but he also showed us efficient sowing techniques, greatly improving our work efficiency. Truly not something everyone could manage."

"Ah?"

Zhang Youfu was dumbfounded, never expected that Lin Yi had such skills.

"Don’t doubt it; I’m telling the truth," Wang Xiaodong said:

"He mentioned he used to farm before and even went to the Agricultural Science Academy for specialized study, so he’s really professional."

Zhang Youfu: ...

"Daoist Master, there’s one more thing I have to tell you."

"What is it?"

"After teaching us how to till and sow, he left, taking all the stored vegetables and pork along, so now that new vegetables haven’t grown, we have to spend money to buy them."

"Damn it!"

Zhang Youfu’s blood pressure nearly spiked, "Didn’t he leave anything?"

"Yes, his car couldn’t fit everything."

"That’s good, that’s good."

"But he hired a logistics team to ship it all, so nothing was left behind."

"Damn!" Zhang Youfu swore, "Truly shameless!"
