How to become a Taoist priest starting from a brothel

The third volume of the new book was released about seven or eight days after the second volume.

For a time, it was said that "paper was in high demand in Luoyang," and everyone in the streets and alleys was talking about Lin Wan.

Will Lin Wan accept Yu Niang's family's gratitude and agree to become Zhang's adopted daughter, or will she continue to help Yu Niang?

How will Yu Niang face the infamy that fills the city?

"In my opinion, Yu Niang should leave the city, find a husband and live a good life, so that Lin Wan's sacrifices for her family will not be in vain." A scholar in blue was sitting with his friend, discussing the Hermit's new book.

“Indeed, as Brother Zhang said, this is the best course of action,” said another scholar in blue robes.

"Sigh... I wonder what Lin Wan will do. With her personality, she's not the kind of person who would behave herself..." the scholar in blue continued.

“The hermit is always full of ingenious ideas, and he is certainly not as vulgar as we think,” the green-robed scholar, who rarely spoke, suddenly said.

"Indeed, indeed, sigh... I wonder when the Hermit will release his new book." The scholar in blue showed a hint of helplessness on his face.

"Bang!" A loud thud echoed as the door was pushed open.

The group turned to look, and there stood the blue-robed scholar's page, who exclaimed with delight, "Young master! The hermit's new book is out!"

"What!?" Everyone stood up.

Before the scholars could react, those who had overheard the story had already run out the door.

The scholar in blue immediately realized what was happening and gently scolded his page, "Fool, why didn't you whisper?"

Without waiting for the page's reply, he strode out the door.

The two scholars who had come with them followed them out.

The entrances to major bookstores were already packed with people.

"Give me one!"

"Give me two!"

"I want twenty books!"

As soon as he said that, everyone stared at the person who had shouted "twenty books".

The man was taken aback at first, then said with an embarrassed expression, "My master brought it as a gift. My apologies."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment before speaking up again.

So those who originally planned to buy one or two copies ended up buying ten or twenty.

As a result, the crowd became increasingly dense, fearing that they would not be able to buy any.

Seeing that the doorway was practically overflowing with people, the bookstore owner quickly moved a table to the entrance, stood on it, and waved to the crowd, saying, "Everyone, everyone, I know you all want to buy these as gifts, but there aren't many books in the first batch. We're limiting each person to one book, and each book is still sixty-five coins. Please have your money ready."

After saying that, he nimbly jumped off the table, beckoned to the waiter, and moved all the books behind him before letting everyone slowly line up.

After a long period of disruption, sales finally returned to normal.

This didn't just happen in one bookstore; it happened in every bookstore.

Seeing how crowded the bookstores had become, the scholar in blue turned his gaze and ran towards a new bookstore that he remembered had only recently opened and was not widely known.

really!

When he arrived at the bookstore, he found that, just as she had expected, the bookstore was not very crowded, and he was able to buy the new book without any problems.

Of course, the same goes for his two close friends.

Lin Wan's ears were filled with the humiliating abuse directed at Yu Niang from all over the capital. They all accused her of being defiled and that since she had lost her virginity, she shouldn't have returned to her family; she should have suffered the same fate as that family, having her property confiscated, or even become a courtesan like some other woman.

Lin Wan hated herself for her carelessness in bringing trouble to Yu Niang, and she also hated the wickedness of the world for wanting to throw a beautiful young woman into hell.

She was a lady from a respectable family, yet she too walked into hell in this way.

She thought about it for a long time. Even though the Zhang family was full of gratitude towards her, Zhang's parents treated her like their own daughter, and Yu Niang treated her like a sister, they even drove away the servants who were talking nonsense in order to take care of Lin Wan's feelings.

Even so, rumors and gossip still rained down on the Zhang family.

Lin Wan thought for a long time, and finally she learned that the head of that powerful family was behind the confiscation of her family's property. So she directly beat the drum to appeal.

She recounted that in order to kill the enemy who framed her father, she deliberately drugged Zhang Jiayu Niang and coerced the Zhang couple into marrying into a prestigious family as a daughter of the Zhang family. However, she failed and was imprisoned in the dungeon.

Her account shocked everyone in the capital. Although they still felt there were some suspicious points, they ultimately believed her and their views on Yu Niang changed.

only……

Her true identity was revealed, which made it impossible for him to live smoothly in the capital.

So, she took the money given to her by the Zhang family and set off on her journey away.

Along the way, she acted chivalrously and saved many women whose fates were tragic.

Three years later, she arrived at the frontier, and behind her were thousands of unfortunate women...

"Huh? Where did it go?" The scholar in blue picked up the book and flipped through it again and again before realizing that the book had indeed broken off at that point.

"Sigh... I wonder how long we'll have to wait this long." His friend sighed deeply.

The scholar in blue sighed deeply, glanced at his book with disappointment, and then looked out the window, only to be startled by what he saw.

"Oh no, it's already this late."

The other two looked out the window curiously, and were also startled.

The sun, which had been high in the sky, had long since set, and if you listened carefully, you could hear the watchmen coming out to strike the gong.

"Oh no, let's hurry, curfew is coming soon." The scholar in blue listened briefly to the watchman's drumbeat, then frowned and said to his friends.

The other two nodded and quickly got up to tidy up.

The three of them quickly got ready, rushed to the entrance of the restaurant, and headed home with the servant.

The scholar in blue walked quickly, scolding his page as he went: "Look at you! I asked you to remind me, but you kept quiet and we almost missed the appointed time."

The pageboy pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally uttered, "I reminded you, young master said that if I say anything more, he will sell me off."

Seeing his genuine grievance, the scholar in blue was speechless for a moment before sighing and saying, "No, but if you don't remind me next time, I'm afraid Mother will really sell you off."

The pageboy clutched the hem of his robe and gave a soft "hmm."

Seeing his reaction, the scholar could say nothing more and could only lead him home quickly.

Such a surge in the popularity of the new book shocked those aristocratic families. In particular, after they discovered that their children were not the only ones buying the book, they also frowned, bought a few copies, and after studying them carefully, sighed deeply and expressed the same sentiment as the old man before them.

However, the hermits' power is now firmly established, and they can no longer stop them simply by trying.

This also made them regret that they should have taken action from the beginning, instead of underestimating the hermit because she was a woman. Now they were truly in a difficult situation.

However, their thoughts could not affect Liu Yin's plan. Looking at the sales reports from various places, she couldn't help but marvel and became more and more confident in her plan.
