Chapter 628 Practice

At noon, when the yang energy was at its strongest, the two convoys stopped at the foot of an ordinary green mountain.

Qin Yao's family thought that the Qingyun Temple, where the vegetarian food was very impressive as mentioned by Uncle Qi, should be a towering palace standing among the mountains.

However, in reality, there is no palace, but there are a few wooden houses.

There are no flat stone steps leading up the mountain, but there is a rugged mountain road.

Qin Feng jumped off his horse and strode to the front of Qin Yao's family's carriage. He pointed to the stone tablet on the side of the road that was already covered with moss and said, "We have arrived at the gate of Qingyun Temple. We need to walk up the mountain. It will take about a quarter of an hour to get there."

"I have asked people to notify the Taoist priests on the mountain in advance. You can all go up the mountain with me to have a vegetarian meal."

Qin Yao nodded, told Awang to stay and look after the carriage and belongings, and asked Yin Le to help him deliver the vegetarian meal later.

Liu Ji carried Si Niang down from the carriage, and the four of them, father and son, came to the moss-covered stone tablet with great interest. The tablet was half a person's height, ordinary, and even the edges had not been polished. It was even more rugged than the road on Liaofeng Mountain that day.

The four of them, father and son, tried hard to open their eyes wide before they could vaguely recognize the three large characters "Qingyun Temple" on the stone tablet.

The words were carved in a grand manner, with a sense of transcendence. The father and his five sons stared at them for a long time without moving. Qin Yao walked forward curiously and asked, "Have you realized it?"

The five of them, father and son, shook their heads together.

Qin Yao's smile disappeared instantly, and she immediately roared: "Then hurry up and get up the mountain for me!"

The five of them, father and son, suddenly opened their arms and flapped their wings, like chickens and ducks being driven by a peasant woman, rushing up the mountain.

Liu Ji made a wrong move and almost fell flat on his face. Soon, the mountain was filled with the children's laughter and the old father's angry scolding. It felt like a family outing to visit scenic spots.

Qin Feng was leading the way, and the laughter behind him sounded noisy.

People do not share the same joys and sorrows. He was filled with nervousness and anxiety. The closer he got to the Taoist temple, the more anxious and uneasy he became. Who could understand?

Looking back, the woman behind him had no expression on her face, but her eyes were full of tenderness. Qin Feng subconsciously called out in surprise: "Ayao!"

The tenderness in Qin Yao's eyes faded instantly. She looked at the Taoist-style wooden buildings in front of her and reminded them, "We're here."

"Yes." Qin Feng suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, led them into the Taoist temple, burned incense and worshipped, and went to the dining hall to eat.

Halfway through the meal, when Qin Yao had just tasted the deliciousness of the vegetarian meal, a young Taoist priest came in and politely said to her and Qin Feng, "Master Qin, Madam, the temple master wants to see you."

Uncle Seven immediately chimed in, saying with surprise that not many people get to meet the abbot alone, and that this is a great honor.

Liu Ji immediately asked expectantly: "Little Taoist friend, did you forget to invite someone that the temple master asked you to invite?" For example, him!

The young Taoist friend was an honest man. He shook his head at Liu Ji and said, "There was only Mr. Qin and his wife. There was no third person."

As he said this, without looking at Liu Ji's handsome face which fell, he raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Qin Yao and Qin Feng, indicating that they should follow him.

Qin Yao raised her eyebrows, stuffed another mouthful of rice into her mouth, then stood up and followed.

"My wife!" Liu Ji suddenly called her excitedly, secretly worried.

Qin Yao didn't look back and just walked away. She was telling them that she could handle it and there was nothing to worry about.

The young Taoist priest led the two men to the door of a quiet room and then left.

The door was open, and one could see an altar in the center of the room. Below the altar, a person dressed in Bagua clothing was sitting cross-legged, with a lotus jade crown on his head. He had his back to the door, concentrating on meditation.

The two looked at each other, Qin Feng stepped forward, followed by Qin Yao. The two came behind the Taoist priest, and Qin Feng bowed first to greet him politely.

The Taoist priest just opened his eyes, picked up the whisk on his knees and stood up.

He was an old Taoist priest with a long beard. He looked about the same age as Old Man Liu. He was very serious and stern.

His narrow eagle eyes first swept over Qin Yao and finally fell on Qin Feng. He raised his hand and motioned for the two of them to sit on the cushion in the inner room.

Qin Feng probably had frequent contact with Taoist figures, so he was very good at sitting cross-legged. Afraid that Qin Yao didn't understand, he demonstrated to her how to sit so as not to be impolite.

The Taoist priest said, "I had a divination this morning, and it indicated that two nobles from the same lineage would come today, but we would not know each other when we met. I didn't expect that when I just saw you two, it looked like we had known each other before?"

Qin Yao was silent, and Qin Feng replied: "The Taoist master has profound Taoism, and the divination is correct. Even though Miss Qin and I have met before, we are still strangers. I hope the Taoist master can teach me how to make Miss Qin remember me."

The Taoist priest looked at Qin Yao again. She opened her almond-shaped eyes and greeted his gaze with a smile. The corners of her mouth raised slightly.

The Taoist priest frowned slightly, and his smile was full of provocation.

In that case, let him find out her background first!

The Taoist priest nodded to Qin Feng and said profoundly: "I have a magic that can ignore all false appearances and see through past and present lives. Since the two of you still don't know each other, I will use this magic to let you take a look at your past lives and see if it can evoke some memories."

Qin Feng bowed excitedly: "Then I'll leave it to you, Taoist priest!"

Qin Yao didn't react much, and the Taoist priest didn't care either. He looked at Qin Feng to reassure him not to get excited, and immediately took out a set of things that looked like talismans from his arms, came in front of Qin Yao, walked around her three times to the left, and three times to the right, muttering something.

After walking six circles, he suddenly stopped in front of Qin Yao, raised the talisman paper in his hand, and with a "boom", the talisman paper spontaneously combusted without fire, which startled Qin Feng and made him even more awed.

The fire talisman burned rapidly in the air and turned into ashes before hitting the ground. The ashes fell right in front of Qin Yao.

She was just looking down curiously when she heard a loud shout from above her head. The Taoist priest stared with wide eyes and shouted, "Show it!"

A bronze mirror jumped out from somewhere and was held in front of Qin Yao's lowered head, facing her face.

You know what, Qin Yao was actually a little bit looking forward to it, because no one wanted to figure out how she got here more than she did.

Unfortunately, the temple master's magic seemed to be ineffective. The three of them peeked into the bronze mirror and saw only a handsome face with skin color that was neither dark nor white, and with plenty of energy and blood.

It was the face Qin Yao had photographed countless times. Not only did she not reveal her appearance from her previous life, she was also unharmed by the magic.

"How, how could this be possible?" The Taoist priest murmured with a hint of disbelief in his tone.

Qin Yao couldn't help but ask curiously, "Can this thing really reveal a person's past life?"

Although Qin Feng was disappointed with the result, he still reminded Qin Yao not to be so rude to the Taoist priest. "How can mortals like you and I question such magic? Why don't you apologize to the Taoist priest?"

As he spoke, seeing that Qin Yao didn't seem to be listening, he added in a low voice, "Be obedient, I'll buy you a gold hairpin when we get to Wucheng later."

Everyone treats her as their younger sister.

Qin Yao looked at him strangely, then looked at the Taoist priest with a broken expression, and reluctantly said, "I was speechless for a moment, Taoist priest, please don't be offended."

The Taoist priest shook his head and didn't care. He just stared at the bronze mirror in a daze, wondering what was wrong?
