Chapter 20 Girls' Dormitory
Lin Jinian got off the bus at Wangjia Village.
It was already dark.
Smoke rose from the village chimneys, carrying the aroma of food.
The distant sounds of dogs barking and roosters crowing.
The sounds of adults calling their children home for dinner were also mixed in.
"Ergouzi! Come back for dinner! Stop playing!"
"Hey! You're here!"
Lin Jinian walked along the familiar country road,
Hearing these sounds made me feel much more relaxed.
this is life.
As we embarked on the mountain path leading to Qingyun Mountain, the surroundings became quiet.
The only sounds were the rustling of the wind through the treetops and the occasional chirping of insects.
Lin Jinian walked briskly, showing no signs of fatigue despite a day's journey.
On the contrary, he is now in surprisingly good spirits.
As he walked, he focused his mind, looking at the "Incense and Taoist Book" floating in his mind.
[Abbot: Lin Jinian]
[Cultivation Level: Qi Refining Stage 9]
[Taoist Technique: The Five Viscera and Five Thunder Method (First Form: Bing Fire Yang Thunder; Second Form: Gui Water Yin Thunder)]
The biggest surprises were the surge in cultivation level and the unlocking of new lightning techniques.
The ninth level of Qi Refining!
Just one step away from mastering Qi!
He felt the spiritual energy flowing like a gentle stream through his meridians.
Compared to the faint, almost imperceptible aura before, the spiritual energy now is abundant and solid.
As breath circulates throughout the body, with each complete cycle, the body seems to become a little lighter.
"Gui Water Yin Thunder..."
Lin Jinian silently recited the name in his heart.
Unlike the extremely strong and powerful Yang fire of Bing fire,
Gui water and Yin thunder are silent and stealthy, their Yin nature corroding the bones and specifically harming the soul.
If we encounter another agile ghost like the one we encountered today,
A single, silent bolt of lightning can obliterate its soul.
"This trip down the mountain was worth it!"
A smile appeared on Lin Jinian's face as he quickened his pace toward the Taoist temple at the top of the mountain.
……
Meanwhile, at Lin'an University, in girls' dormitory room 302.
Jiang Rongrong had just returned to her dormitory and hadn't even had a sip of water yet...
They pressed Song Qiaoyun down into a chair and made her turn on screen recording.
Jiang Rongrong imported the video to her computer.
Start playing.
The video was playing at the moment when Lin Jinian activated the golden light shield.
A golden light curtain illuminated the darkness.
Then the thick bolt of Bing Fire Yang Thunder exploded with a deafening roar, engulfing the terrifying, legless white shadow.
Although Song Qiaoyun had seen Lin Jinian make a move at Biyue Bay before,
Even now, sitting in front of the computer screen, she can feel the pressure and shock.
"This golden light is amazing!"
Song Qiaoyun's eyes widened and her mouth slightly open.
I forgot to put the potato chips I was holding in my hand into my mouth:
"I thought he was good last time, but I didn't expect him to be this strong this time!"
"That ghost... that ghost without legs, it was just killed instantly?"
"Of course!"
Jiang Rongrong looked smug.
It was as if she herself was the one who set off the bomb:
"You weren't there in person, but the sound and the lighting effects were absolutely amazing!"
"And look at that old monk, how arrogant he was before,"
"He was slapped away by a ghost, but Master Lin saved his life."
Song Qiaoyun watched the back of the Taoist priest in the green robe calmly finishing his work in the video.
He slapped his thigh in regret:
"Oh dear! I should have gone with you!"
"Elective courses are nothing! How many times in a lifetime do you see a scene like this?"
Jiang Rongrong chuckled and opened the video editing software:
"Don't worry, don't worry, all the materials are here."
"Once I edit this video and upload it online, it's sure to go viral!"
Two girls huddled in front of the computer, chattering away about the editing details.
"What are you two yelling about here? The whole hallway can hear you."
The dormitory door was pushed open, and the other two roommates walked in.
It was Chen Xue who spoke.
A girl with neat short hair and a somewhat tomboyish personality,
He was also holding several thick professional books in his hands.
Li Zhiwei, who followed behind her, was a completely different story.
She had long, flowing hair, was quiet and reserved, and was carrying four cups of milk tea.
"Oh dear, I got a little too excited!"
Jiang Rongrong quickly waved:
"Come quick, come quick! I've got something amazing to show you! It'll completely change your worldview!"
"What good stuff is it? And which rising young heartthrob is it?"
Li Zhiwei distributed the milk tea to everyone and curiously gathered around.
"This is way more exciting than those young heartthrobs!"
Song Qiaoyun pulled over a chair.
Pointing to the image frozen on the computer screen.
It was a close-up of Lin Jinian making a lightning spell with his fingertips crackling with electricity, his face cold and stern.
"Ta-da! Let me introduce you to..."
"This is Abbot Lin Jinian of Qingyun Temple!"
"A true reclusive master!"
Jiang Rongrong proudly pulled back the progress bar like she was showing off a treasure, and then pressed the play button.
The video begins with Master Faming being knocked away.
The video played until the awe-inspiring moment when Lin Jinian was protected by golden light and his thunderous magic destroyed the ghost.
As the plot progresses...
Chen Xue and Li Zhiwei, who had been nonchalant, gradually froze.
"Holy crap..."
Seeing the thick bolt of lightning explode,
Chen Xue couldn't help but swear, her eyes wide like saucers:
"This...this is special effects, right?"
"Rongrong, your editing skills are so amazing now?"
"The lighting and particle effects are like something out of a Hollywood blockbuster!"
"What kind of special effects are these?! This is a live stream recording! Original audio and video!"
Jiang Rongrong was so anxious that she stomped her feet:
"I was there at the time!"
"That thunder exploded right above my head, and my ears are still ringing!"
"Really?"
Chen Xue still didn't believe it; as a staunch materialist,
She pushed up her glasses, trying to find a flaw:
"But this...this is just too illogical."
"How could the human body possibly emit such a strong electric current?"
"Even with static electricity, it shouldn't be enough to blow up the bookshelf, right?"
"These must have been props set up beforehand, like flashbangs or wires."
Li Zhiwei, standing to the side, didn't dwell on these "scientific principles."
Her gaze remained fixed on Lin Jinian's face on the screen.
An unusual light appeared in those once calm eyes.
"This Taoist priest... is so handsome."
She couldn't help but sigh softly, her voice tinged with a hint of shyness.
"Look at his eyes, so cold, yet so resolute."
"And that gesture of pulling back his hand, so dashing..."
"And this Taoist robe was worn by him..."
"It really has a... how should I put it, an air of otherworldly grace."
"Hey, Zhiwei, aren't you missing the point?"
"Ugh, so cheesy!"
Chen Xue rolled her eyes in exasperation.
"We're discussing whether this thunderbolt is real or not, and you're just swooning over it?"
"But he really is handsome."
Li Zhiwei blushed and argued:
"Even if it's acting, this is such a good performance."
"Much better than those pretty boys who only know how to act cool."
"and……"
She pointed to the trembling Master Faming in the corner of the screen.
"That old monk's acting was very realistic."
