Chapter 119: 119: The ancestral elder wants to go to S City
“The world has always been like that, constantly meeting and parting. You need to get used to it sooner rather than later,” Jiangli patted Xia Xin’s arm and turned to say, “Let’s go, it’s time to head back.”
Xia Xin looked towards the place where they had disappeared, collected his emotions, and followed behind Jiangli.
Just as the ancestor had said.
At Xuanmen, what one encountered most were various partings.
It’s just that before, Jiaoyang Temple wasn’t very famous and didn’t have much business.
He hadn’t witnessed it too many times and wasn’t quite used to it yet.
But now that the ancestor was back, Jiaoyang Temple was bound to get better and better.
He would have to get used to this kind of thing sooner or later.
Xia Xin sighed inwardly and followed Jiangli back to the Chan room.
“Alright, let’s play a game!”
The moment they returned to the Chan room, Jiangli took out his mobile phone, grinning.
Xia Xin’s face twitched, “…”
Wasn’t that a bit too sudden a transition?
Xia Xin forced a laugh, “Ancestor, you, you want to play games now?”
Jiangli raised an eyebrow, “What, we can’t play now? Should we wait until later?”
“No, it’s not that, sure…”
Xia Xin couldn’t outtalk Jiangli, nor did he feel he could persuade him, so he sighed, took out his phone, and went to play games with Jiangli.
While waiting for the game to start, Jiangli spoke to Xia Xin, “By the way, we might need to take a trip to S City in a few days.”
“To S City?” Xia Xin was startled, “Why? Ancestor, why do you suddenly want to go to S City?”
“I heard there’s a nice scenic spot there, thought we’d go have some fun,” Jiangli said vaguely, “The game’s starting, quick, choose your hero!”
Xia Xin looked at his phone screen, his thoughts momentarily led astray.
But he quickly came back to his senses.
“Ancestor, why do you want to go to S City for fun?”
Jiangli replied, “Nothing much, just feel that I need to go there, there are some things to do.”
She laughed again, “The world has changed so much, I need to go out and see for myself.”
Xia Xin didn’t understand, but he supported the ancestor going out to explore and see the world.
There’s an old saying, isn’t there? Traveling thousands of miles is better than reading thousands of books.
Going out to see the world can help you understand it better.
While Jiangli was engrossed in gaming with Xia Xin, Judge Cui, leading Qiang Hongtao and Shuaishuai, walked on a pitch-dark road.
But, this road was not dark at the moment.
All around them were glowing paper money.
Judge Cui glanced at the paper money and said with a light smile, “The Abbot has indeed made a grand gesture, going to great lengths to pave your path, even using merit.”
Qiang Hongtao didn’t understand, “What, what…”
“It’s nothing, you just need to know that the Abbot helped you,” said Judge Cui.
Qiang Hongtao nodded. Even if Judge Cui hadn’t mentioned it, he knew that it was Jiangli who had helped them.
Looking at the paper money, Judge Cui muttered softly, “I never thought she would still be alive, that she could actually return.”
Wang Xinjun arrived in H City that night.
After making inquiries, he found Hengbin Hotel near the sea.
He rushed over to the front desk to ask for information.
Unfortunately, the receptionist would not divulge any news to him.
Wang Xinjun was frantic, only able to call Wang Zixin again and ask her to come down to meet him.
But, Wang Zixin’s phone was unreachable again.
Wang Xinjun’s face turned a frightening pale, “How could it be unreachable again?”
Hadn’t he told Zixin to always stay in touch?
Why was his daughter’s phone unreachable again?
Desperate and at a loss, Wang Xinjun could only call Jiangli.
Jiangli was playing games when her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was Wang Xinjun calling, she continued playing while answering the call.
“Mr. Wang, what’s wrong?”
On hearing her voice, Wang Xinjun almost broke into tears, “Abbot, I, I can’t find my daughter…”
