Therefore, Lin Beichen decided to leave his two new disciples in the area to oversee the construction of the Daoist Temple, while he continued his wandering journey.
However, his disciples and Liu Baoguo both expressed their wish to travel with him. The disciples hoped to learn more at their master's side, while Liu Baoguo wanted to be there to lend a hand whenever the master faced difficulties.
Lin Beichen understood his disciples' thoughts, but Liu Baoguo's desire to follow him put him in a bit of a bind.
After all, someone had to stay and supervise the construction of the Daoist Temple. He asked Liu Baoguo who could shoulder this heavy responsibility, and Liu Baoguo replied with confidence that the old village chief and his wife were both reliable candidates; as long as they were given enough funds, they could handle the task.
