“I wish to meet the master of this place, can you please relay the message?”
“…Wait a moment!”
The man bit his lip, staring at the tall and imposing monk in front of him. He wanted to deny the request and send this fellow packing, but he knew his current status. The only thing he could do now was to relay the message and let the young master decide whether to invite or dismiss the monk.
With a feeling of apprehension and a complicated frame of mind, the man went to find Feng Qing’an.
“Tell him, if he wants to enter, he must release your wife first!”
As soon as he heard who the visitor was, Feng Qing’an put forward a request, understanding that it was a Dragon Heaven Monk.
“Yes!”
The man, previously showing a face full of anxiety and unease, broke into a smile after hearing Feng Qing’an’s words. He practically sprinted to the front gate, and seeing the calm monk waiting outside, he shouted,
“Master, my young master said that if you want to enter this place, you must release my wife. Otherwise, you may leave!”
The man had long observed that their young master was sought after by divine beings. Even if the visitor was a monk and not a Taoist priest, he believed his wife could be released by this monk as long as he made requests from their young master.
“Fine, but your wife is in my Purple Gold Bowl. Only when in the yard can she be released; she cannot be revealed in public, to avoid causing panic amongst ordinary people!”
Without much thought, the man agreed, leaving the man standing at the door surprised, the happiness came too suddenly that he didn’t know how to respond.
“Didn’t you hear him? Quickly make way for the master to come in!”
A youth’s clear voice, sounding like jade chimes colliding, resonated from behind the man. He quickly made way for the calm-faced monk, holding a copper staff, walked past the threshold and into the courtyard.
“Zen Master Yinghai, it’s a pleasure to meet you!”
Smiling, Feng Qing’an watched the uninvited monk.
“When the shoe fits, the foot is forgotten. He was precisely the monk he was hoping to find. He was initially worried about how to fulfill his earlier promise. When he was struggling with it, the monk unexpectedly showed up, fulfilling his promise even though he hadn’t initially said he would.”
“Amitabha, blessed be, Master Feng!”
Once again seeing the familiar face of the young master, Yinghai made a monk’s salutation with one palm rested against the other in front of his chest.
“Zen Master, there’s no need to stand on ceremony. Please release Ba Lang’s wife quickly!”
Feng Qing’an urged continuously, eagerly watching the monk who was slaying demons.
Without any unnecessary words, Yinghai let down his hand, and with a gentle wave, a Purple Gold Bowl appeared in his hand. A fish with shining golden scales leapt out of the bowl.
The golden scales grew bigger in the wind and soon turned into a foot-long fish that fell to the ground with a ‘plop’. But within flashes of a light, it transformed into a merfolk.
“Wife!”
As soon as the golden-scale fish transformed, the man couldn’t wait anymore and rushed forward. The moment the fish transformed into a human shape, the man had already embraced the woman’s upper body and started weeping loudly.
“Husband!”
The woman, who was the Carp essence, looked puzzled. She didn’t understand how she had suddenly escaped from the dungeon.
“Zen Master, this way, please!”
Looking at the touching scene of the couple’s reunion, Feng Qing’an showed a satisfied smile. He did not stay there long before turning towards the courtyard, and Zen Master Yinghai followed him without giving the Carp essence another look.
“Do you have any doubts, Master?”
Even though Feng Qing’an was walking ahead of him, Yinghai seemed to sense his thoughts and voluntarily asked.
“I am indeed a little confused. I never thought that Zen Master would so easily release the spirit fish!”
Feng Qing’an looked back at the tall, strong, and handsome monk with a grinning smile.
During his intrusion into the Underworld, he had seen the Heavenly Dragon Monk exposing his golden body and fighting the city god. He stubbornly refused to hand over the spirit fish and even used his trump card to escape without yielding it.
Now, just to enter his house, he released the spirit fish. This was like an indirect slap on the city god’s face, ultimately honoring Feng.
“Not long ago, I still remember the Zen Master’s impassioned speech in the Underworld!”
“Because, Master, you agreed to take this fish demon, so I am willing to fulfill this.” Said the Heavenly Dragon Monk Yinghai, his expression serious. He had not acted against his words; instead, he had followed them exactly.
“Hmm? What do you mean?”
“It seems that the husband of this fish demon has already become a janitor under Master?”
“He is not a servant, I hired him with money!”
Feng Qing’an corrected him; he disliked treating people like slaves.
“It may count as hiring. Now that this fish demon’s husband is controlled by you, and the couple is reunited, the fish demon will naturally be under your control. If the fish demon creates trouble, would you ignore it?”
