Chapter 224: Nonsense! Join Me on a Journey to the West, or I'll Send You to the Afterlife (Part 2)
What was even more astonishing was that the meat contained rich 'Jing Qi' and 'Essence Energy', which could aid cultivation and enhance physical strength!
How could this be considered food?
This was clearly a pot of precious medicine!
"This... wouldn't happen to be dragon meat, would it?"
Lin Fan was shocked and asked.
"Where's the dragon?"
San Dian, while enjoying the delicious meat, muttered, "It does have a bit of dragon blood, but it's extremely diluted."
"It's a Three-Headed Dragon Dog. I've raised it for over ten thousand years, and it's already at the Eighth Stage! I feed it with great medicine daily, teach it cultivation, and help it break through, all for today!"
"You guys are so lucky."
He felt even more pain in his heart.
Delicious?
Of course!
Incredible effects?
Absolutely!
After all, he had put in the effort and paid a high price to raise it. It would be a miracle if it wasn't delicious.
He could have enjoyed it for years.
But now, they were dividing it... It broke his heart.
"So it's dog meat!"
Lin Fan realized.
No wonder it was so fragrant.
An Eighth Stage dog with a bit of dragon blood, how could it not be fragrant?
Unfortunately, he was just a scarecrow and could only taste it. The benefits of aiding cultivation were wasted.
But...
It was so fragrant!
The three old men began to 'frenzy' over the food.
"Don't just eat it!"
"Cheers!"
Halfway through their feast, Barrett Patriarch shouted, "San Dian, you shouldn't say that I'm taking advantage of you!"
"That's more like it!"
San Dian started chugging immediately.
Lin Fan also took a sip.
Instantly, his face turned bright red.
It wasn't that he couldn't drink alcohol, but this wine was too 'high-end'. The energy within was too rich, and the medicinal effects were too strong. Even a scarecrow would feel a sense of 'overwhelming energy'.
"So refreshing!"
The three of them devoured the food and drink, all transforming into super big eaters.
After all, they had cultivation, and their appetites were naturally far beyond ordinary people.
In the end, they couldn't eat anymore, and Barrett Patriarch even started packing the food! The dog meat hotpot, with its broth and meat, probably weighed over a thousand pounds.
Then...
He directly handed over the storage bag along with the food to Lin Fan: "Take it back and eat slowly."
Lin Fan felt embarrassed: "How can I accept this?"
He took it anyway.
Barrett Patriarch laughed: "If you have the guts to act shamelessly, you're fit to be a short mule. If you were under my command, you'd be promoted to a trusted position within two years."
"Even becoming a head horse would be a piece of cake."
"With a whistle, tsk tsk..."
"Unfortunately..."
At this point, he suddenly felt a bit dejected.
Lin Fan also fell silent.
Transmigration... naturally had its advantages.
But not transmigrating didn't mean it was all bad.
Regardless of the past, there were always some memorable moments, of course, except for the constantly unfortunate gangsters.
"Sigh, let's not talk about those."
"Out of ten gangsters, nine will be forever unlucky. You better not follow their path."
"I had no choice back then."
After saying this, Barrett Patriarch seemed to suddenly remember something important. He patted his thigh: "Put away the hotpot."
Why did he have to say it?
San Dian was furious inside, rolling his eyes, and put away the hotpot and tableware.
"Speak."
"What are you doing here, you old thing?"
"I wouldn't have come just because I calculated that there's good food here, would I?"
"If that's the case, you have to give me an explanation."
"This thatched hut may be simple, but I've lived here for several thousand years. I have feelings for it!"
"You have to compensate!"
"Compensate?"
Barrett Patriarch smiled: "Sure, I'll compensate."
"Compensate me with a Minor Western Region? Do you want it?"
San Dian: "???"
He was stunned.
Then he cursed: "Everyone says I'm crazy, but I think you're the real crazy one!"
"Knowing that I can't deal with them and that you don't have the strength to do so, why send me to the Minor Western Region? Why not just kill me instead?"
"You want to compensate me with a Minor Western Region, wanting me to get killed? If you want me to die, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush."
"Is that the kind of person I am?"
Barrett Patriarch put the cigar back in his mouth, took a deep puff, and continued: "If it was just you, it would indeed be sending you to your death. But I'm here too, Barrett."
"To be honest, Barrett is leaving."
Lin Fan's eyebrows rose.
Leaving?
Where to?
It couldn't be that he was about to die, could it?
Then there's only one possibility... he was about to transmigrate!!!
Hiss!!!
San Dian was shocked, but his words were merciless: "You old thing are finally leaving?"
"You've been a disaster for a thousand years!"
"No, it's been several tens of thousands of years."
"I thought you'd die of old age here."
"Nonsense."
Barrett Patriarch scoffed: "I didn't come here to argue with you."
"If I wanted to leave, I would have left long ago. The reason I stayed was to find a successor, but unfortunately... the situation is such that I can't find a suitable one."
"I've realized it during this time."
"Find a successor? Leave the problem for them to solve?"
"But why should they?"
"They're living their lives, and suddenly you give them such a heavy burden. Do they owe you? Or do they owe the public?"
Barrett Patriarch tapped the cigarette ash, took another deep puff, and with his epic lung capacity, the fire flickered: "You want to leave the problem to the successor?"
"What kind of successor is that?"
"So, I've decided that before I leave, I'll solve the problem first."
"If there's a successor, we'll fight one less battle, and the successor will have one less battle, or maybe even none at all."
"Since we're leaving anyway, what's the harm in making a bigger fuss?"
He turned to Lin Fan and spoke in his hometown dialect, "I've blown my top, but I'm not afraid of a little run around the block."
Lin Fan: "..."
That's the spirit!
This is the true flavor of a genuine gangster~ However, he never expected that Patriarch Gatlin would have such an idea.
If he fights one more battle, the successors will have one less battle...
Lin Fan wasn't sure about the situation in the Western Region and the Buddhist Sect, but it was clear that Patriarch Gatlin, an insider of the Buddhist Sect, had already become deeply disgusted with it.
Even he, a former black market mule, had become so disillusioned that he couldn't bear to look back. What had become of the Buddhist Sect now?
Lin Fan was secretly astonished.
The Buddhist Sect... It's probably already rotten to the core!
"You sure know how to talk."
"You're strong, everyone knows that, Patriarch Gatlin."
"But can you really fight your way through?"
"If I could, would I have waited until now?"
San Dian was moved, but he still coldly laughed, "Don't even mention the rot and darkness of the entire Buddhist Sect, which has already seeped into the bones. Even if it's just the Minor Western Heaven, you might not be able to break through it all!"
"You're not wrong."
Patriarch Gatlin took out a cigar and chuckled, "Indeed, I might not be able to break through it all, so I came to find you, didn't I?"
"Let's do it together."
"You've also been disgusted with those bastards for a long time, haven't you?"
San Dian: "???"
"Old man, have you gone crazy?"
"Are you really taking me to my death?"
He started to make a fuss.
Lin Fan quietly observed and listened from the side.
There was nothing he could say about this matter.
And even less he could do.
Clearly, this San Dian was also a formidable figure, at least a mid-stage Ninth Stage 'big shot', likely having stepped onto the fourth or fifth Immortal Platform.
Even if it was a clone, the original body would have to kneel and surrender.
If even he was this afraid, and even Patriarch Gatlin, who was about to ascend, didn't have any confidence...
He could only rely on Patriarch Gatlin's kindness towards his fellow townsman for any benefits.
At this moment, it was best not to be too clever.
Amidst San Dian's commotion and urgency, Patriarch Gatlin calmly blew out a smoke ring, "Stop wasting words."
"Are you coming with me to the Western Heaven?"
"Or am I sending you to the Western Heaven?"
Gatlin reappeared, locking onto San Dian at close range.
The latter was stunned.
"You... you..."
San Dian eventually expressed his acquiesced and agreed.
After all, Patriarch Gatlin was truly unreasonable! Strong in power, and even more so in his formidable magic treasures.
If he didn't agree, he wouldn't have to go to the Western Heaven to die; he would be killed right now.
By agreeing to go to the Western Heaven, he could at least live a few more days.
And...
San Dian's heart was filled with inexplicable anticipation.
The Buddhist Sect was indeed too rotten and dark, and these matters were not something to be discussed with outsiders. So, both of them tacitly agreed not to inform Lin Fan.
But they were more aware than anyone of the current state of the Buddhist Sect.
It seemed bright and glamorous on the surface, but in reality, it was appalling, so it was best left unmentioned.
San Dian had once wanted to make changes, but because he 'didn't fit in', he was ostracized everywhere. Later, he gave up and decided to focus on his own affairs, no longer bothering with anything else.
Patriarch Gatlin, on the other hand, had always persisted. He initially wanted to take on a disciple, nurture them well, and even pass on the Gatlin technique, allowing them to change everything.
But after the Su Yan incident, he suddenly changed his mind.
Letting the younger generation handle what he couldn't?
Too incompetent!
If it doesn't work out, then so be it, he'll die.
But if he doesn't die...
He can extend the life of the Buddhist Sect by a million years!
This thunderous event will eventually explode!
If he defuses it, he might lose many lives, or he might bear a thousand years of curses. After going up, he might even be dealt with by the Buddhas above.
But it's still better than letting the thunderous event fully explode, and then the various Buddhist Sects and Buddhism of all sizes be targeted by the other seven regions and one state working together!
Human hearts, ah.
Patriarch Gatlin sighed.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he completely eradicated this piece of 'garbage' and said, "Let's go!"
San Dian's eyebrows twitched, "Where to?"
"To find someone!"
"You don't think that just the two of us can turn the world upside down, do you?"
"..."
San Dian wanted to curse, but after hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He really wanted to say... I'm afraid you, you son of a bitch, will go crazy and take me to my death.
Although I'm not afraid to die, if I die like this, nothing will change, and wouldn't that be a waste?
"Who are we finding?"
"..."
"Jiase."
"That old lustful monk?!" San Dian was astonished.
Lin Fan was even more astonished.
Wow...
What a strange combination!
One is Patriarch Gatlin, a former black market member, with Gatlin's technique of 36,000 rotations per breath.
The other is San Dian, a vicious dandy who had raised a pet for ten thousand years and would devour it at will.
The person they are looking for is a high monk called Jiase.
And he's an old lustful monk? An old lustful monk named Jiase...
So, is it because he's too lustful that he's called Jiase?
But can someone like this really enter the Buddhist Sect?
He suddenly realized.
This Buddhist Sect seems to be truly amiss.
Doesn't anyone take the precepts seriously?! Patriarch Gatlin is one thing, as he was originally from the black market, and it's quite normal for him to be like Lu Zhishen, with no issues at all.
This San Dian...
At the very least, he's a broken-precept big shot who indulges in 'wine and meat' to the extreme.
Jiase, whom San Dian calls an old lustful monk, is obviously not someone who would strictly abide by the precepts, so what are these Buddhist big shots then? A bunch of bullies?
······
Half a day later.
Lin Fan opened his eyes.
San Dian said he would go and talk to Jiase first, while Lin Fan followed to see the commotion and open his eyes.
Then...
They actually found a temple, and... a temple that does that kind of thing!
And there were so many beauties!
This made Lin Fan think of the temples in India, and he felt disgusted.
Damn...
It's not that it's not allowed, but it's normal for men and women to love each other as long as it's consensual. Whether you have a hundred or a thousand, or even if you play with a lizard, Lin Fan expresses 'respect'.
But this is a Buddhist temple, a temple!
And you're playing this kind of game?
Even if you built it outside?
Even if you went to a brothel?
I would still look up to you! But you're playing this game?
"San Dian?"
"Didn't you hide? Why are you looking for me?"
Jiase was a fat, big-eared monk with lipstick marks all over his face, his body exuded the scent of rouge. Even from ten miles away, one could smell it.
When he saw San Dian, he was very surprised, "After hiding for thousands of years, are you here to talk to me about entering the world?"
"If you want to enter the world, don't come to me!"
"I don't want to be ostracized and beaten up like you."
"Whatever it is, don't come to me."
"There are so many beauties, I can't play with them all, why would I have the mood to mess around with you?"
San Dian: "..."
"Jiase."
He earnestly said, "You're not a bad person, and your heart isn't bad either. You're just a bit too lustful."
"Back then, weren't you also targeted and ostracized because of those matters? It's only because of your strength that you're still alive. Otherwise, you would've died long ago."
"How come you're so easily bought by these beauties?"
"You're lustful, but not to this extent, right?"
Jiase glared, "What do you mean, not to this extent?"
"I am like this!"
"I'm so lustful that my master named me Jiase."
"Just go, I don't want to hear anything."
Jiase: "..."
"You don't care about your master's death anymore?" San Dian wanted to persuade him further.
"Damn!"
"Scram!"
Jiase raged, "Scram, scram, scram!"
"If you don't scram, I'll fight you!"
"If I spread the word that you, San Dian, are coming out of hiding to blow the whistle and gather people, then you..."
"Wuuuuu~ Da da da da da!"
Before he could finish his sentence.
A burst of gunfire came.
It was too fast! Jiase didn't have time to dodge, and he was instantly blown up.
"Ah!!!"
He screamed, but fortunately, his strength was strong enough, and he instantly 'recovered'. He was almost scared to pee and turned around abruptly.
It was at this moment.
Gatling, the Patriarch, with a cigar in his mouth, stood with his staff on the ground, looking cool and domineering. "San Dian, why are you wasting time talking to him?"
"I'll give you three breaths."
"If you're not with me, I'll kill you!"
"You?!"
Jiase was stunned.
"So it's Patriarch Gatling."
"Just kidding, you're just joking."
"I've heard of the Patriarch's name for a long time. From now on, I'll follow your every word. Whatever you say is what I'll do. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west."
"If you tell me to defecate, I'll never fart."
"That's more like it."
Putting away the Gatling, Patriarch Gatling said solemnly, "Why didn't you just do this earlier? Why waste words?"
San Dian: "..."
Jiase: "..."
Damn it, you should've just said it was Patriarch Gatling's idea. If you had told me earlier, I would've agreed.
"Yes, yes, yes, but Patriarch, what exactly are we going to do?"
Jiase was greedy for life and afraid of death, but he was also very smart.
For Patriarch Gatling to come personally, and even gather people...
How strong must the other party be?!
"It's simple, take care of Minor Western Heaven."
"Take care of that lightning that might explode at any time."
Patriarch Gatling spoke calmly.
"Take care of Minor Western Heaven?!"
Jiase's whole body trembled, and he almost shook like a sieve.
"What, are you scared?"
"I'll give you a chance to reconsider."
Patriarch Gatling smiled.
The Gatling, which had just been put away, appeared again.
"!!!"
"The Patriarch is just joking!"
"I have no dealings with Minor Western Heaven!"
Jiase raised his hand as if swearing to the heavens.
"You know that my master died because of them. How can I be friendly with them? All these years, it seemed like I couldn't resist their beauty trap, but in reality, I was just playing along!"
"I was just pretending to fall for their trap!"
"I have inside information about Minor Western Heaven."
"I'm willing to serve the Patriarch!"
"That's good."
"I'm not afraid of you causing trouble. If you dare, I can take you down before I die." Patriarch Gatling smiled.
But...
At this moment, a ruthless determination also arose in Jiase's heart.
Pretending to fall for their trap was just an act.
Over the years, he had indeed been unable to extricate himself from their beauty trap.
But the fundamental reason was still his own inability, lacking the strength to resist. Rather than being helpless, it was better to 'fall' for their beauty trap.
At least this way, he could gain some benefits, right?
But the fact that he had no dealings with them was true!
Now, with Patriarch Gatling blowing the whistle, perhaps... this was indeed an opportunity.
If necessary, he would fight them to the death! Who's afraid of whom?
When people die, they become birds in the sky. Over the years, Jiase had slept with so many beauties that he had made up for it.
Moreover, before dying, he would definitely take down a few scapegoats! "No, I need to talk to the Patriarch later and say some nice things, so he'll help me take down my enemy first!"
