Chapter 687: Chapter 687: Who Dares to Take Him Away?!
“Qinxue~~ my~~ my sweet daughter… Am I… Am I dreaming?” In the wheelchair, Qinxue’s mother began to awaken, her eyes moving around, becoming more lucid, and she even began to speak.
The wish she had been hoping for all these years, for her mother to wake up, ca true at this mont, causing Qinxue to collapse almost from exhaustion. Leaning on her mother’s knees, she was choked with sobs, crying and barely coherent. “Mom, you finally woke up… It’s a miracle, it’s a divine intervention, a profound blessing…”
“This… this… this…” Qinxue’s mother was still sowhat confused, and having slept for so many years, her limbs were still a bit numb and weak after just waking up.
But in the temple of City God Hall, imrsed in the endless aroma of incense, her spirits revived gradually. Bathed in divine power, she feels as if she lit up with warmth, like sun-kissed grass in spring, full of ease and comfort.
Her weak physical condition was also recovering at an incredibly fast speed.
Just at this mont, there were hurried footsteps in the front hall, along with the sound of an angry shout. “Where is the charlatan? Co out! Co out imdiately! Today, I brought the relevant authorities to deal with you! Co out!”
...
“Err~~” Huang Xiaolong was startled for a mont, as he recognized the voice.
It was none other than Mu Yunfan who had co with Qinxue to the city god temple yesterday, and was continuously disrespectful.
“Little Long, the insolent man from yesterday is causing trouble.” Xia Ying’s eyes turned frosty.
Huang Xiaolong laughed. “I’ll go and check. Right, give her a bowl of spiritual water to drink. She will be bouncing around soon.”
Huang Xiaolong strolled towards the front hall with a smile.
There stood Mu Yunfan, posing assertively in the front hall with a group of uniford individuals standing beside him.
Representatives from comrce bureaus, religious affair bureaus, and even tax and health administrations were present.
“It’s him!” Seeing Huang Xiaolong, Mu Yunfan imdiately beca livid. His eyes flashed with intense jealousy and his face twisted into a hateful sneer, as if he wished to devour Huang Xiaolong whole.
In fact, Mu Yunfan held a deep loathing for Huang Xiaolong. He has always loved Qinxue, but she had been cold and aloof towards him. However, yesterday, the devotion and admiration Qinxue showed for Huang Xiaolong deeply wounded Mu Yunfan.
He didn’t believe that Huang Xiaolong was a true master. And the prediction of the landslide, he was convinced was a fortuitous coincidence!
Therefore, today he used so connections, summoned everyone he could, with the intention of hauling Huang Xiaolong off to the authorities!
“Are you gentleman here to pray or to make a vow?” Huang Xiaolong joked.
“Stop the nonsense!” Mu Yunfan snapped ferociously. “You may have fooled Qinxue, but not ! Gentlen, he sells incense sticks here for a whopping 1000 yuan each! Isn’t this blatant fraud? It’s sheer extortion! I have had a look, they are just ordinary incense that can be bought for a few yuan outside!”
“Oh? Is that true?” The comrce bureau official stared at Huang Xiaolong sternly. “Bring your incense, we will have a careful examination! I am curious about the kind of incense that could sell for such an extortionate price!”
Huang Xiaolong responded calmly. “My incense is blessed, it can be considered a priceless treasure. Actually… at 1000 yuan, it’s quite a bargain…”
“Hahaha~~ A bargain?” Mu Yunfan sneered mockingly. “Only a kind-hearted girl like Qinxue would be fooled to spend so much on your worthless incense. Who else would buy it? Only an idiot would buy it!”
Just then!
Rumbling footsteps from outside!
“Master! Master!” A group of people shouted in excitent, their voices filled with a sense of awe and respect.
“Hmm? Who is it?” Mu Yunfan and the uniford staff furrowed their brows.
Huang Xiaolong looked up to see the group of geologists from the day before.
The man leading them was “Old Du”, who had been cheated on by his wife for years.
But Huang Xiaolong had foreseen his future and knew Old Du would turn his misfortune into a blessing. By this ti next year, he will finally beco a father.
Indeed, Old Du bounced up excitedly, holding hands with a young woman who was both pretty and poised.
“Master! You truly are a divine being!” Old Du deeply bowed to Huang Xiaolong, “If not for you, I would still be oblivious to the deceit of that vile woman! Also, Master, the wish of having a child that I’ve been praying about… It seems… it’s about to co true! Master, today I am here to express my gratitude!”
Having said that, Old Du imdiately pulled out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his pocket. “Master, I want to pay my respects. This is 5000 yuan, I want to buy 5 sticks of incense.”
The young woman also smiled gracefully. “Thank you, Master. Without you, it would be impossible for Old Du and I to reconcile. Old Du ntioned that you are highly effective, so I’d also like to offer so incense.”
The young woman took out 1000 yuan to buy incense.
“Master! I want to offer incense and make a wish! Bless with a romantic fortune this year!”
“Master, I’ll buy 3 sticks of incense. My father hasn’t been well recently, I wish to pray for his health and wellness.”
“Master, I have 10,000 yuan on , I want to buy 10 sticks of incense, to ask for blessings for my son to get into a prestigious university this year!”
“Master, can we use credit cards?”
…
For a mont, these geology experts, with their bills in hand, eagerly competed with each other to buy incense.
What happened to Old Du was enough to prove that the young man in front of them was a mysterious, extraordinary figure. A divine being! Provided you have sincerity, all your wishes will be fulfilled!
Compared to their inner desires, what does a stick of incense for 1000 yuan amount to? Buying it is earning it!
“Hmm ~~ Everyone, go to the Hall of the City Gods to offer your incense. Just place the rit money on the table. Rember, you must be sincere.” Huang Xiaolong looked calm and unperturbed.
A crowd of people rrily ran towards the Hall of the City Gods.
‘Heh, this ti, I’ve earned quite a lot of aspiration power!’ Huang Xiaolong was pleased.
Mu Yunfan and his group were all dumbfounded!
Especially Mu Yunfan, his face burning with humiliation.
Just now he loudly declared that anyone who buys Huang Xiaolong’s incense for 1000 yuan a stick must be a fool who’s out of his mind. But right under his nose, so many people bought incense, directly earning Huang Xiaolong tens of thousands of yuan!
“I have no idea…no idea where you found these backers~~” Mu Yunfan said resentfully.
Straight after, he shot a look at his group.
“Cough cough~~ We are from the Dong’an Bureau of Civil Affairs, and now we suspect you of selfishly building temples and Taoist temples for personal gains, which is illegal. Moreover, we doubt that you are even qualified to be an abbot or temple priest. Now, please accompany us.”
“We are from Dong’an Bureau of Industry and Comrce, please provide your business license. If you haven’t applied for one, then I’m sorry, you’ll have to accompany us.”
“We are from Dong’an Price Bureau, there seem to be so issues with the pricing of your incense and candles, you’ll have to accompany us.”
“We are from Dong’an Health Bureau, your Taoist temple seems to have so hygiene issues, and you haven’t reserved a fire exit, posing a safety hazard.”
…
A group of people in uniforms surrounded Huang Xiaolong, casting bla and accusations, placing one taphorical hat of guilt after another on Huang Xiaolong.
Mu Yunfan gloated at Huang Xiaolong, a sinister smile creeping on his face. “So I can’t deal with you?”
Just then!
The gentle yet noble voice of a woman rang out. “Today I want to see who dares to take the Master away!”
The speaker was Qinxue’s mother!
