Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 409 Taoist monk in the Streets

Given that Square Town was such a crowded place, they would definitely not act rashly.

Lin Mengya did not believe they would do anything to her.

For this reason, she went back to the inn and dragged Baishao into the streets and they did some shopping.

She was numbed to all the spying from the various forces and authorities. At least it would help pin down who they were.

“Mast... Young Master, I’m still worried about Baisu.”

Baishao was about to address Lin Mengya as her master when Lin Mengya gave her a look.

This girl who had yet to get married could not bring herself to verbalize the endearing term a wife used on her husband.

She finally resorted to calling her ‘young master’.

“Alright, I suppose our predestined relationship has not ended yet. We’ll meet again in the future one day. It must have been tough following me around. Pick anything you fancy from the street stalls and I’ll buy it for you as a gift.”

In fact, Baisu had chanced upon many opportunities to tamper with the emperor’s medicine but she did not.

Lin Mengya could forgive her for that.

Perhaps the time had not come.

Baishao appeared troubled and nothing caught her eye. Lin Mengya, on the other hand, picked up a heap of items excitedly within a short time.

She even paid someone to help her bring the goods she bought back to the inn.

“Events of your life, be it a blissful or woeful marriage, will be foretold accurately to save the world and the people in it.”

Suddenly, Lin Mengya spotted a shabbily dressed Taoist monk at an inconspicuous corner.

There was no fortune teller at the stall where the monk was at, but he sat there looking calm and confident.

He was either a very good fortune teller or an extremely experienced charlatan.

However, the Taoist monk had turned up his nose at the passersby but Lin Mengya only rested her gaze on him a little longer, and he smiled and even waved at her.

Lin Mengya pointed at herself and in response, the Taoist monk nodded unhurriedly.

This was strange. Why did this Taoist have his eyes on her alone where there were so many people going to and fro on the street.

Since nothing was of pressing urgency, Lin Mengya decided to go over to unveil the mystery.

“My greetings to you, Taoist monk.”

Lin Mengya cupped her hands together and bowed at him, but Baishao shot her master a puzzled look.

Not to mention that was just a muddle-headed Taoist monk in the countryside, her master barely bothered herself with reputable monks in the Capital City.

How was she so polite today?

“I see that you’re a person of eminence who had visited this place, but please forgive me for not being able to rise to my feet to welcome you.”

Although the Taoist monk was speaking with a polite tone, his posture of sticking one leg over the other while sitting was very rude. His courteous tone was completely out of sync with his posture.

“It’s alright. Given that you’re a monk, I understand you’re not tied down by the etiquette of commoners. I wonder what good advice you have for me since you’ve stopped me in my tracks.”

The stubbly-bearded Taoist monk chuckled.

In an unhurried manner, he said, “It wasn’t me who stopped you. You’ve stopped yourself. What do you think? I am known for my foresight. If you have any doubts, please let me know. I may be able to help you.”

Ultimately, he was trying to sell his service.

While Baishao was not interested in listening to the filthy Taoist monk, Lin Mengya, however, did not express an opinion.

She lifted her snow-white arm and jotted down the word ‘I’ on the calligraphy paper in front of the Taoist monk.

Lin Mengya did not know the traditional Chinese characters therefore, the simplified character she wrote had an index component missing.

“I would have to trouble you, respected Taoist Monk.”

When the old Taoist monk saw what she wrote, the expression on his face froze in that instant.

After pausing for a long time, he finally exhaled and he shook his head helplessly with a bitter smile on his face.

“This character... I’m afraid I can’t really tell much from this character you wrote. All I can say is that although you’re in this foreign country, you’ll meet someone who will form an unbreakable predestined relationship with you. This brought to my mind someone whom I met right at this spot twenty years ago.

The words of the old Taoist monk’s words confirmed Baishao’s suspicion that he was a swindler.

Immediately her eyes were filled with a look of dissatisfaction.

Why would he not stick to his deceitful words, but be talking about the story of someone who had passed away to deceive master? If they were in the Capital City she would have dragged this old Taoist monk to the magistrate.

It made her wonder why her master was in such a good mood today that she played along with this man.

“Oh? Who was this person in the past?”

In fact, Lin Mengya somehow shared Baishao’s sentiments towards the old Taoist monk.

However, for some reason, this old Taoist monk gave her the feeling that he was some out-of-the-world man of sanctity.

The old monk smiled, took out an item and placed it before Lin Mengya.

Lin Mengya took one look and saw that it was a bronze coin with a picture of a plum flower on it.

“This was left behind by that person in the past. We can bid farewell now that I’ve delivered the item to you.”

Before Lin Mengya could react, the old Taoist monk with the demeanor of a transcendent being had gathered up his belongings and fled!

“Your belongings, Taoist monk!”

As Lin Mengya cried out with the bronze coin in her hand, the old Taoist monk even quickened his steps.

Soon, he disappeared from their sight completely.

Lin Mengya did not know what to do. What just happened?

“Stop! Don’t go!”

Someone was shouting angrily from behind. A shocked Lin Mengya turned around to see a fierce-looking man wielding a butcher’s knife.

Reeking of blood, Lin Mengya could tell he was a butcher at one look. However, he stopped by Lin Mengya when he passed her.

“Little brother, did that evil monk deceive you? Don’t worry, no matter how much money he had cheated you, I’ll make sure to get it back for you. Which way did he go?”

Although the burly butcher was looking very fierce, he treated Lin Mengya and Baishao like a gentleman.

Lin Mengya pointed in a way different from the one the monk took and the butcher shouted and ran in that direction after instructing her to report this to the magistrate.

Lin Mengya and Baishao exchanged puzzled looks, wondering what kind of situation this was!

“I told you. This Taoist monk is definitely a swindler. Otherwise, why would that butcher be pursuing his life?”

Lin Mengya stood there in a daze for a few seconds before she recovered.

What Baishao said made sense, but what about the bronze coin with the picture of a plum flower? If she was not mistaken, the picture of the plum flower imprinted on the bronze coin was the same as that on the piece of fabric she found at the bottom of the lake.

What exactly was the background of this old Taoist priest? How was it he could come out with something that was related to her?

These unexpected events kept happening to her one after another and they had completely confused her.

The two women lost their mood to shop. After buying some food, they returned to the inn.

Just when they stepped through the entrance, they spotted Zhao Fei pacing at the door. He pounced at Lin Mengya the moment he saw her as if she was his savior.

“Finally, you’re back, Little Brother Yuan. Come and have a look. Your older brother and your cousin are almost going to kill each other!”

Huh? Lin Mengya felt a bomb had fallen on her. Was this person ill?

They had yet to get hold of their enemy and here they were, fighting among themselves.

Lin Mengya rushed into the inn. The usually tidy hall was in complete disarray.

Long Tianyu and Qiu Yu were entangled in a fight.

What made her more troubled was that the two men had given up using any weapons on each other but were wrestling with their bare hands now!

“Will you all stop!”

Lin Mengya was already in a foul mood because of that she had been taken advantage of by the lecher in the morning.

In the afternoon, Xiu, who had been missing suddenly appeared. Lastly, she was totally confused because of the insane old Taoist monk on the streets.

When she had finally returned to the inn, what awaited her was the scene of these two men fighting so fiercely.

They had even resorted to strangling and biting. How embarrassing!

Lin Mengya was indeed effective. Just a moment ago, the cousins who refused to listen to anyone’s advice, had quickly separated themselves when they heard Lin Mengya’s voice.

However, one had a bruised nose and swollen face while the other was not looking any better.

Where had all the gentlemanly traits gone?

“If you guys insist on fighting, do it outside! I’m in a bad mood now, so whoever makes me angry would have to be chased back into your home!”

After Lin Mengya rebuked them harshly, she went back into her room with Baishao.

What surprised the onlookers was that these two men who had been fighting so fiercely were now obedient.

Although the two men had definitely not patched up, they trailed behind that young man one after another and entered his room.

“Hey, this young man, Master Yuan was indeed domineering!”

As Zhao Fei gazed at the figures disappearing up the second floor, he could not smother the smile on his face.

However, the pain on his stomach from that blow was still tugging at him.

“The Yuans had raised their younger generation well. I suppose the elder brother and cousin really doted on the younger brother.”

Even Wen Shi, who was usually quiet, broke his silence and blurted out the conclusion.

However, like Zhao Fei, he was implicated and took a blow when he was trying to be the peacemaker.

The two men exchanged looks. They could only make a wry smile.

Alas, no matter what method they used, they could never be as effective as Young Master Yuan’s roar!

At present, sitting on a chair, Lin Mengya stared at the two men with a straight face.

She did know what had gone into Long Tianyu recently, that his attitude towards Qiu Yu was getting worse by the day.

She was already troubled over the events of the day. What was worse now was that these two men had got into a fierce fight in public.

Lin Mengya gazed coldly at the two men who were still exchanging stares.

She banged on the table with her small hand, cleared her throat and said, “Out with it.”

Finding each other offensive, Long Tianyu and Qiu Yu sneered at each other and turned their heads away from each other.

“He started it!”

Qiu Yu said with an angry tone. To him, Long Tianyu had not held back his strength. He felt as if his ribs were almost going to break.

“Say that again!”

Long Tianyu, who failed to speak first, flew into a rage and shouted at Qiu Yu with a chilly tone.

“You were the one who started it. You were holding on to a sword while you attacked an empty-handed physician! Are you still a gentleman?”

In response to Qiu Yu’s accusation, Long Tianyu cast him a cold, sharp gaze, then he tightened his fist in rage.

Surely Qiu Yu would not want to be taken advantage of. He dodged Long Tianyu completely and lifted his leg in ruthless kick towards him.
