The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 447 - 444: The Hungry Monk Jun

"This Chu’s Restaurant is quite interesting. The shopkeeper seems all jests and smiles, but he’s actually a high-level expert nearing the Xuan Transformation Realm, and even the wait staff are Xuanwu Practitioners. That Master Xin must be even more unfathomable. I didn’t expect that just half a year after I left for my trials, such an incredible person would appear in Purple Cloud City."

The girl clicked her tongue in amazement, regretting that she didn’t get to meet the said Master Xin this time.

With a sigh of regret, the girl left.

Little did Xin Lin know that she had inexplicably become known as Master Xin.

At the moment, Xin Lin leapt over the back wall of Taichang Temple with a quick stride and jumped into Wanshi Mountain.

Today was not the open day of Taichang Temple. The temple was quiet and serene.

At this hour, the monks of Taichang Temple were busy with their morning chants.

Of course, Xin Lin was not here for the morning chant.

She tiptoed and sneaked into Wanshi Mountain.

Having had the experience from the last time, Xin Lin was now familiar with coming and going from Wanshi Mountain.

Inside the modest meditation room, on an incense burner where the gold paint had peeled off, there were three sticks of plain incense burning.

The aroma wafted through the air, and Monk Jun, wearing an extremely simple monk’s robe, was holding a string of colored Buddha Beads, with an open Buddhist Scripture on the table before him.

He was motionless, as if he had no breath at all.

Knock, knock, knock— 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

There was a series of knocking sounds, some heavy, some light.

Monk Jun didn’t even move an eyelid.

"Monk Jun, it’s me."

A clear and pleasant voice was heard.

Monk Jun opened his eyes.

"Little benefactor, you..."

The door opened, and Monk Jun saw Xin Lin smiling broadly.

He wanted to say, little benefactor, Taichang Temple is not open today, and we do not welcome female visitors.

Before the monk could say more, Xin Lin ducked and slipped into the room.

Well, it was too late for that.

She looked around and saw that on Monk Jun’s desk, there was only a bowl of clean water, which made her pout.

"Monk, isn’t the food here at Taichang Temple a bit too poor? You’ve earned so much incense money for the temple, and they won’t even feed you a morning meal?"

Monk Jun opened his mouth, meaning to say that he was fasting.

"Oh! I get it, it must be Monk Qingyu getting back at you!"

Xin Lin slammed the table, her face full of indignation.

Monk Jun opened his mouth, wanting to say that there was no longer such a person in the temple.

Hmm, too late again.

Xin Lin took out a few buns from her bosom and stuffed them into Monk Jun’s hands.

"I climbed over several walls, especially to bring these for you to eat. Thank you for helping me transcend those Yin Sha."

Fasting... he was fasting.

Monk Jun silently recited, holding the steaming buns in his hands.

Looking at the buns and then at Xin Lin’s sweaty little face, he said,

"Eat them while they’re warm. They’re stuffed with cabbage."

Xin Lin grabbed one and pushed it into Monk Jun’s mouth.

A fresh aroma instantly filled his mouth. The monk was stunned and looked at the bun.

Very delicious.

"They taste good, right? I made them," said Xin Lin with a smile.

"Little benefactor has skilled hands," Monk Jun said, somewhat surprised, as he looked at Xin Lin.

He was someone who had little desire for the taste of food; what he ate did not matter much to him.

But he had to admit, Xin Lin’s vegetarian buns were truly delicious, refreshing and pleasant to eat, especially in the morning, making one feel clear-headed and invigorated.

Monk Jun smiled, but obviously, it wasn’t the reaction Xin Lin was hoping for.

"Monk Jun, there is a saying in Buddhism, ’Joy shared is joy doubled.’ You also said that my vegetarian buns are delicious. Why not help bring them to the monks in the temple for a taste test and improve the meals at Taichang Temple? My buns are not expensive, only one silver each!"

Xin Lin eagerly said.
