I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

At the same time, the old Daoist priest who was splitting the revenue with his subordinates also saw Lin Yi and the others.

“Yo, young man, you’re here. Have you thought it through?”

The old Daoist priest walked over with a smile. “Since you’re here, I take it that you’re sincere. I’ll give you a cheaper price. 3,000 yuan to help your girlfriend break through that barrier. In the future, everything will definitely be smooth sailing and you’ll be safe. You can also get an invoice.”

“Save it.” Lin Yi said.

“I saw how you split the spoils. Be careful or I’ll report you.”

The other Daoist masters looked at Lin Yi warily, clearly wary of him.

Only the old Daoist priest didn’t care.

If Lin Yi really wanted to report him, he wouldn’t show this attitude.

“Little brother, calm down. There’s no need to make things so awkward. We’re all commoners. Even immortals need incense. We’re also forced to make a living.”

The old Daoist priest’s attitude was very good. Firstly, he was afraid that Lin Yi would report them and cause a scandal.

Secondly, they probably had some money since they could spend a lot of money to visit this place.

It was better to be polite to such a person.

“If you have nothing else to do, just show us around.”

“There’s not much to see, really. Our alchemy room is the only interesting place; the rest is pretty much the same everywhere.”

The old Daoist’s words confirmed that Xiyun Temple was more about scams than anything else.

However, this was a voluntary matter. After all, no one was being forced.

With that, the old Daoist led Lin Yi and his two companions around the alchemy room, explaining the strange items inside. Lin Yi listened carefully and got a general understanding of the place.

He figured that when he eventually became a Daoist priest, his situation wouldn’t be much different from this.

After all, Xiyun Temple was one of the larger Daoist temples in Huaxia.

Many other places weren’t even as good as this.

“Sir, isn’t this an alchemy room? Why is there mercury here? Isn’t it highly toxic?” Lin Yi asked.

“Young lady, you don’t understand,” the old Daoist said smugly.

“This is an essential ingredient for refining elixirs. It’s very valuable.”

“Elixirs?” Qiao Xin’s eyes lit up. “In this modern society, are there still such things as elixirs? Can consuming them make you immortal?”

“Um…”

The old Daoist priest’s expression paused and he said seriously,

“If you don’t die after eating these things, it’s no different from becoming an immortal.”

Lin Yi.”…”

Qiao Xin, “…”

” Sorry for bothering you.”

Then, the three of them walked around other places and realized that it was already past one o’clock. They prepared to go eat first and continue shopping in the afternoon.

“You guys go eat first. We have an event at two in the afternoon. If you have nothing to do, come over and take a look. It’s only once a year. If you miss it, you’ll have to wait another year for the next one.”

“What event?”

“Qiao Xin asked curiously.”

“The performance of the Hungry Ghost Festival is mainly to showcase Daoist culture, but don’t worry, there’s no charge. You can watch it for free.”

“Alright, we’ll come and take a look after eating.”

After bidding farewell to the old Daoist priest, the three of them arrived at the dining hall of Xiyun Temple.

Lin Yi originally thought that there would be fewer people here if he skipped meal time, but he quickly realized that he was too naive.

Although it was already past one o’clock, there was still an endless stream of people here.

Fortunately, they had bought the 298-yuan tickets earlier, and upon presenting the ticket receipt, they were secretly given a fast pass, allowing them to skip the queue.

Because they had purchased the VIP tickets, the three of them received preferential treatment.

There were over a dozen dishes available for them to eat, but most were quite bland and watery, not even as satisfying as a 20-yuan meal box from outside.

The three of them didn’t complain much, as they were there to enjoy the scenery, not the food.

Meanwhile, two Daoist-like individuals appeared at the entrance.

One of them, around fifty years old, wore glasses and had slightly dark skin but looked very energetic.

His name was Zhang Yanjun, the head of Xiyun Temple.

He came from a poor family and became a Daoist at the age of eighteen.

Using the deceptive skills he learned from his master, he had now established a relatively decent life for himself.

From another perspective, Zhang Yanjun could be considered talented.

Without him, Xiyun Temple wouldn’t have achieved its current scale.

It could be said that the current success of Xiyun Temple was inseparable from his persuasion.

Standing next to Zhang Yanjun was a young Daoist.

Dressed in a brand-new Daoist robe, his skin was dark, making him look a bit older, but he seemed to be in his twenties.

“Little Zhu, I’ll be counting on you for the event later,” Zhang Yanjun said.

The young Daoist priest’s name was Zhu Jinwoo. He used to practice mixed martial arts, and his physical fitness was top-notch.

The two of them met in a mixed martial arts competition. It was also at that time that Zhu Jinwoo realized that the money earned as a Daoist priest was more than what he earned from fighting. From then on, he joined Xiyun Temple to become a Daoist priest.

Although his income did not increase significantly compared to before, he could earn money every day with just a few words. This was much better than risking his life to earn money.

Therefore, he could be considered to have joined the Dao Sect wholeheartedly now.

“Don’t worry, there’s no problem at all. When the event starts, I’ll show them my skills. I guarantee that I’ll make them dumbfounded and very willing to pay”

“Just make sure you master the three routines I taught you, and everything will be fine,” Zhang Yanjun said.

“In short, just two words: trick them to death.”

“Brother Jun, that’s four words.”

“Don’t sweat the details,” Zhang Yanjun said earnestly, then glanced at the dining hall. “Look around, it’s already past one, and people still have to wait for a table. This means there are a lot of visitors today. If we can fool these people well, today’s earnings will be enough for you to buy an Accord.”

“Got it,” Zhu Zhenyu said.

“I’ve thrown many fake punches before, so trust my acting skills.”

“I’m relieved hearing that.”

With that, Zhang Yanjun, hands clasped behind his back, said, “Let’s go. It’s about time we got ready.”

As the two were about to leave, a loud cry echoed through the dining hall.

“Yangyang, be careful! Watch where you’re going! Don’t run around.”

Thud!

A boy, around ten years old, crashed into a large pillar while playing with another child and fell to the ground.

He froze for a second before bursting into tears from the pain.

Seeing this, Zhang Yanjun’s eyes lit up, sensing a moneymaking opportunity.

“Quick, quick, quick, this is our chance to make a fortune. Go check it out!”
