Entomologist in Sichuan Tang Clan Chapter 353

353
“As I said earlier, Shaolin Temple is usually open to men only, so we’ll wait over there. Soryong.”

An open space that appears as you approach the first gate of Shaolin Temple, Iljumun.

There were several pavilions prepared in the vacant lot, and Hwa-eun looked back and said.

He said he was waiting in the pavilion over there.

As I heard from Hwa-eun last time, Shaolin Temple is the territory of the Golden Woman.

Of course there are exceptions, but now is not the time.

During holidays and certain other seasons, access to the interior is permitted, but only at the entrance and certain areas.

The story was that women were not allowed to enter the Shaolin Temple, so they had to wait outside.

“I’m curious about Shaolin too···.”

“I’m curious too, but I can’t help it. Except for times like Lantern Festival, the interior of Shaolin is a forbidden area for women.”

“tooth···.”

Sister Seol said she wanted to see the inside of Shaolin Temple because she was curious, but as Hwa-eun said, there was nothing she could do.

If you disobey, you will be considered to have disrespected Shaolin’s reputation and will be locked up in the Chamhoe-dong.

After listening to the story, it seemed that Shaolin would definitely have you repent if you did something wrong.

What do you mean by repentance? From what I heard from my brother, it’s a place where they dug into the cliff wall and blocked the entrance with iron bars. Isn’t that just a prison?

Moreover, it was said that monks took turns reciting Buddhist scriptures in front of the Chamhoe-dong from morning until bedtime, so it seemed like I could understand why criminals who were locked up there would take refuge in Shaolin.

Lock them up for ten or twenty years and recite Buddhist scriptures in front of them?

Even a normal person would have a hard time maintaining their sanity.

For years, they have been chanting Buddhist scriptures right in front of people’s faces, and if they become Buddhists, they will be forgiven. So wouldn’t most people choose to become Buddhists?

Perhaps the Chamhoe-dong was a scheme by Shaolin to force monks into becoming monks.

There probably won’t be many voluntary applicants for either the eunuch or this position.

‘I said I was very suspicious?’

“Sister Seol, come back later when you have the chance, and Hwa-eun. Then I will go in with you.”

“Yes, Little Dragon. Take care and I hope you get what you want. Oh, and if there’s anything you don’t know, feel free to ask in the chat room.”

“All right.”

As I said earlier, I stepped forward and said that I would go in alone with my older brother who was in charge of relaying this incident.

The reason I was alone with my brother was because, although all men can enter, no one else but my brother can enter Shaolin.

Are you feeling suffocated?

In particular, Kwon Ryong and Geom Ryong, who were trying so hard to go to Giru, said they would never enter the Shaolin Temple.

“Then, in the future, only men will be able to enter Shaolin Temple?”

“No, Doryeong and Soryong, you go alone.”

“What about you two?”

“When I go to a place where there are only men, something happens to my body.”

“I… strangely, the food doesn’t taste good… ahem.”

They were brothers with really strong tastes.

As I was thinking about our conversation earlier and snickering as I stepped forward, I heard a voice behind me.

“Kids, you too, come here. Don’t follow Dad.”

When I looked back, the children were following me and were being stopped by Hwa-eun.

I was going to leave them behind, of course, but they probably thought it was okay for them to follow me since they weren’t human.

Or maybe you think that females and women are different.

-Tsururut?

-Char?

-Beep?

I had that thought as I looked at the children tilting their heads as if to ask what the problem was.

I think it’ll be okay since they’re not human like the kids said.

Originally, all laws were made based on people, so this wouldn’t apply to children.

If it were a place where there were ordinary people, the children would have been hidden, but since they are related to the same martial arts world, there is no need to hide them.

Moreover, Shaolin knows that I raise poisonous and spiritual creatures, so if I can avoid the gold woman, it won’t be that difficult to enter.

And come to think of it, if I were to explain this incident to Shaolin, wouldn’t I need to bring Lang Xiang with me?

Important reference, no, victim? Because he is the victim.

I asked Hwa-eun directly.

“Now that I think about it, children aren’t people, so wouldn’t it be okay?

And to explain this incident, I need to bring Lang Xiang with me, so wouldn’t it be right to bring the other children with me? Lang Xiang has only been a part of the family for a short time, so I think she’d be anxious if I asked her to come with me alone.”

“I think it would be right to take Lang Xiang with you, just like Soryong said…”

Hwa-eun looks to one side without speaking.

As I followed Hwa-eun’s gaze, the figures of Cheong-yu and Yo-hwa, who were blinking while receiving Hwa-eun’s gaze, came into view.

-Kissit?

-Shia?

“ah···.”

Looking at the two, it was clear that the two were ambiguous.

They’re half human, so it was a bit much to take them.

Because it’s so human.

Cheong-yu was very ambiguous because her half body was that of a human, and Yo-hwa had the form of Hwa-eun, so she wasn’t much different from a human.

I held my chin in thought and then asked my brother.

“Brother, but why is it that women are not allowed to enter this place?”

“I do that because I am worried that the monks with low Dharma power among the practicing monks will fall into trouble.”

“ah···.”

From what I heard, it seemed like the monks were probably doing this because they were afraid that the women might have lustful thoughts while they were practicing.

‘Then I guess it’ll be okay?’

For that reason, it seemed okay, and since asking wouldn’t cost money, I decided to go to the entrance and ask.

“Then let’s take him and ask him.”

“If you tell me not to come in, then there’s nothing I can do, but if you tell me to come in, then I guess that’s better. As you said, I need to have Rang-hyang.”

“Kids, let’s go then. But if you tell me you can’t go in, you’ll have to come back and wait with Mom.”

-Kishi.

-Beep.

-Tsrrrr.

When I told them to go and ask, the kids quickly followed me with cheerful voices.

After greeting everyone again, I headed straight to the entrance with my brother.

“Then I will go.”

He brought along that fake Taoist priest named Tae-Heo.

“Move.”

“Ah, ah.”

The Taoist pretended to die when his older brother grabbed the rope that bound him.

When we arrived at the large stone Shaolin mountain gate with the Taoist monks in tow, the monks standing in front of another gate far inside were startled by the sight of our group and ran out.

A monk holding a long pole quickly ran towards us and tried to surround us, but when he saw my brother, he raised his hand to stop the monks.

“Who, who!”

“Stop!”

-chuck!

“Ah, Amitabha. Peng So-hyeop. What is this?”

I think he was probably the security guard or something. In response to his question, my brother smiled and introduced us.

“Monk Jaun, this is the son-in-law of the Sacheondang family, Soryong, and the children he is raising. This guy here is the Taoist monk you asked me to do last time.

“He is misleading the people and causing them to suffer, so I will arrest him as you said. Of course, the little dragon here has taken care of everything.”

“Oh, this person? And I’ve heard stories about the spirits he raises, but they look like this and are this big. They’re really, really great.”

A monk named Jawoon stared blankly at the children standing behind him for a moment.

He soon came to his senses and bowed to me.

“This is my spirit. My name is Amitabha Buddha Jaun. Nice to meet you. And thank you for solving Shaolin’s problem.”

“Nice to meet you. My name is Xiaolong, the son of the Beast Palace and son-in-law of the Tang family.”

As soon as our greetings were over, the monk named Jawoon looked at the Taoist monk who had been tied up.

Then he looked at the Taoist monk with a completely different expression than when he greeted us and immediately gave an order.

“Hand over the criminal to the guest and take him straight to the front of Daeungbojeon. Then, have one of you run to the abbot’s office and report this to Hyewon Daesa.”

“yes!”

The rope that tied the fake Taoist priest like a puppy was passed to the Shaolin monks, and a monk named Ja-un tried to guide us.

But as expected, when he checked the fairy and the blue oil, he said with a bewildered expression.

“Little Dragon, Little Xia, you are a benefactor who took care of Shaolin’s affairs, but those children cannot pass the Shaolin Mountain Gate. Women are prohibited from entering here.”

Perhaps the other children were okay, but it seemed that the problem was that they had the appearance of a woman.

But I had my own thoughts too.

Would you have brought your children here without thinking?

I brought it because I was thinking of mixing it.

I asked in the most polite voice possible.

“Is it because of the children’s appearance?”

“That’s right. Little Dragon Little Sword.”

As expected, he was saying that entry was not allowed because of the children, but he changed his face and said with a slightly embarrassed expression.

“I heard that the reason they don’t let women in is because they’re worried that monks with low Dharma power might fall into the trap. Is that true?”

“Yes, that’s right. Little Dragon Little Sword.”

“Hmm. So you’re saying that you’re worried that the monks might fall into the trap after seeing these kids… If there really are such people, isn’t that a bit dangerous?”

“yes?”

As the monk Jawoon blinked, not understanding what I was saying, I looked at the distant mountains and answered him.

“No, if you look at children who aren’t even human and fall into a basket, then I think it’s a bit…”

‘From now on, all the kids who harbor ill will come out!’

The shell of an insect is often expressed as a carapaced or shell.

If you see children who are not human and have ill feelings towards them, then isn’t that a furry, or a carapace, or a shell?

Anyway, that was it.

Those who like fur are called furries, and those who like skin are called carapace or shells.

Then, the startled monk Jawoon quickly sent another monk inside.

“Go and tell Ambassador Hye-won that she will have to come out in person to greet the guests.”

“Oh, I understand.”

It seemed to be a profound problem that he could not decide on.

***

When I asked the question, the head monk of Shaolin, Master Haewon, and all the high-ranking officials of Shaolin came rushing out to the mountain gate.

And after a brief conversation, it was concluded that everyone could enter.

“Even if your magical power is low, there will be no strange disciples in Shaolin who would see a spirit and fall into a trap, so please come inside.”

Saying no would have been like acknowledging that there might be people with special tastes, so permission to enter was granted right away.

I thought to myself that it was a good idea to mix it.

‘Yeah. Nice.’

“Thank you, Ambassador Hyewon.”

After expressing my gratitude and entering the temple, I came across a place called Cheonwangjeon, and the largest building behind it was Daeungbojeon.

When we arrived there, there were numerous Shaolin disciples lined up in front of us.

And then I saw the back of the fake Taoist priest Taeheo kneeling in front of Daeungjeon.

“Can you tell me more about it?”

“Of course.”

Hye-won, the head priest of Shaolin Temple, asks the fake Taoist monk about the whole story.

He nodded and immediately began to explain.

“First of all, this incident happened because that fake Taoist priest tricked an invisible spirit into doing something bad.

…

In the middle of the explanation, when he heard that even Sosangchon had been hit, the prayer beads that Ambassador Hyewon was rolling made a clinking sound as she put strength into them, and the story stopped for a moment.

After continuing to explain, Ambassador Hye-won found out who Rang-hyang was.

“Who is the child who can’t see?”

“This is the child.”

Lang Xiang is nervously clinging to Bin Yi’s buttocks because she can’t see ahead.

Pointed at the guy.

Then Ambassador Hye-won began to speak in a compassionate voice.

“You found a friend. You must have been lonely. Amitabha. It is natural for even the smallest being to miss family, siblings, and affection.”

Spirits are inherently gentle and kind-hearted like children, so they were just deceived.

In the meantime, many of the demons died and Lang Xiang suffered greatly.

When I emphasized that I was just a victim when explaining the story, Ambassador Hye-won did not blame Rang-hyang.

He felt pity for him, but instead he vented his fiery anger on the Taoist monk.

“But to use that kind of mind to make money and bring misery to others! Even the compassionate Buddha will never forgive such a thing.”

“Yes, it is Lang Xiang’s fault. It’s all because he tricked a good kid. He really is a bad guy.”

‘That kid is such a bad kid!’

Since he couldn’t even protest because his blood was bleeding, he shook his head fiercely while listening to our reprimands, but that only made Master Hye-won even more angry.

Ambassador Hye-won, who was spewing fiery anger, made the decision.

“The crime of taking money from the people in the villages surrounding Sungsan and toying with the innocent spirits like children is not small. Fifty years for the repentant ones! Take them away!”

“Yes, Ambassador!”

The Taoist priest appears to be in his late thirties, and fifty years is almost a life sentence.

After the gruesome verdict that would force her to spend the rest of her life as a eunuch was passed, Ambassador Hye-won smiled and said,

“Then why don’t we go inside and have some tea and talk about what you wanted to ask?”

Now it was time to learn about ‘fate’.
