The daughter of an elite disciple from a major sect, Shi Zelan possessed the best conditions for cultivation. However, she was plotted against and cursed, burdened with an inherently unlucky consti...
Chapter 184 Comfortable
The abbot of the temple on the mountain received the news from the monk in charge of reception and hurried to the guest house to meet the brothers Qiyuan Zhenren.
Qi Yuan Zhenren and Qi Cheng Zhenren had already left the guest house and saw the abbot: “We walked down the mountain and wanted to come up to visit you.
But after we got up the mountain, we were worried that we would disturb the abbot's business, so we didn't ask anyone to inform him, and we brothers just walked around the mountain casually. ”
The big monk smiled and said, "You guys are welcome to do whatever you want."
The head monk walked towards the fork in the road, and the monk in charge of reception whispered, "Master, are we just going to let them wander around?"
"Let's go, everyone who comes is a guest."
It's almost the New Year, and the abbot doesn't have much free time.
Before the Qiyuan brothers went down the mountain, they asked the monk in charge of reception to convey that they would visit the abbot with full sincerity next time.
After the monk in charge of reception conveyed this, he said indignantly, "Master, it seems that they are showing great respect to you by coming to see you."
The head monk looked at the monk who was in charge of reception and said: "Tomorrow, you should go back to the back mountain to work and cultivate your Buddhist mind."
After the presiding monk signaled the monk in charge of reception to leave, he called the monk from the guest courtyard to talk. He learned that the brothers Qiyuan Zhenren had walked back and forth several times around the courtyard where they had lived.
"Host, I think they're looking for something."
"How is the old lady from the Zuoyuan these past two days?"
"He is much healthier than the last time he came, and he also walks out in the yard."
"The old lady is old after all, you should always pay attention to her and don't let her fall outside the yard."
"Master, she wants to leave the courtyard, and we can't make a sound to stop her."
The presiding monk was silent for a while, then said, "Before the New Year, her children and grandchildren will take her home."
After the Qiyuan brothers returned to the courtyard, they sighed to Decheng and Shanzheng, "That old woman is living in the temple. I heard that she is really enjoying the temple life this time."
Master Decheng looked up at the brothers in surprise, and Master Qicheng whispered the words of the monk from the guest house.
"This old lady is not an ordinary person either. She knows that she should go to the temple to avoid the limelight for now."
Qi Yuan Zhenren thought of the phantom and said with some displeasure, "She is a sensible person."
Shi Xiaoliu and his sister and Xia Yu came in from outside with smiles on their faces. When they saw Qi Yuan Zhenren and his brothers, they were also very happy and said, "Master Uncle (father), Master Uncle (uncle), you are back."
Qi Yuan Zhenren nodded, looked at their wet clothes, and said with a smile: "Did you go to the well?"
Xia Yu smiled and said, "We passed by the well and helped Aunt Cheng from the east end carry a load of water over."
Qi Yuan Zhenren looked at the expressions on Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan's faces, smiled and said to Xia Yu: "Yu'er, I'm afraid others don't need your help, right?"
Xia Yu nodded: "On the way back, Xiaoliu and Lan Jie'er said the same thing."
Qi Yuan Zhenren turned to De Cheng Zhenren and Shan Zheng Zhenren and said, "Yu Er should spend more time with Xiao Liu and Lan Jie Er, then he will understand some of the human relationships here."
Master Decheng smiled and said, "They both just follow their own will. Shanzheng and I usually don't care what they do."
Shanzheng Zhenren smiled and said: "You brothers are not outsiders, I will tell you the truth.
Sister Lan has been spoiled by my master and Lady Phoenix and her personality has become too pure, so I decided to bring her out to see how hard other people's lives are. ”
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan exchanged glances, and they went directly to the kitchen to discuss the meals to be prepared today.
"Let's cook some clear soup so Xia Yu can eat more."
Xia Yu poked her head in: "Dough noodle soup is also fine."
"That's noodle dumpling soup. OK, let's cook it."
The three of them were discussing cooking in the kitchen. Brothers Decheng Zhenren and Qiyuan Zhenren said, "We received news today that the Northern Wasteland is in chaos."
"I went to the Northern Wasteland a few years ago and had a very bad impression of it."
"The cultivators in the Northern Wasteland are used to oppressing the people. After they have established their foundation, they also believe in temporary pleasure and comfort, and do not believe that cultivation can allow them to live forever."
“I wanted to go to the Northern Wasteland before because I heard that there was something produced in a place in the Northern Wasteland that could be used as a material for magic tools.
I want to get some back so that I can refine a top-grade magical sword for Yu'er. ”
Master Qicheng had never thought that Master Qiyuan would be so frank, but he could also see that Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng were not interested in such things at all.
Master Decheng said to Master Qiyuan, "There is no need to rush at this moment. Wait for a few years until the situation in the Northern Wilderness stabilizes, and then make a decision."
Qi Yuan Zhenren sighed and said, "The sect has sent a message to fellow disciples in Beihuang, asking them to return to the sect as soon as possible and not to get involved in other sects' affairs."
Shanzheng Zhenren thought for a moment and said, "We still want to be in the capital next spring, so we won't make any other plans for now."
Master Decheng agreed, "We, the master and the disciple, also want to have some peace and stability."
When Master Qi Yuan saw the two of them talking like this, he felt a little disappointed.
Master Qicheng conveyed his voice to him: "Brother, Xiaoliu's talent is average, and Lan Jie'er's cultivation is unstable now. They would rather choose a peaceful life, and we can understand that."
Qi Yuan Zhenren said enviously: "As for me, I have never wanted to live a peaceful life since I was a child."
Master Decheng said with a smile: "So the younger generations all know your deeds, but for us, they have only heard of our names at most."
“It’s just an empty reputation. In fact, there are not many cultivators in the sect who really know us. Especially when the outer disciples mention us brothers, I don’t know how they will distort our names.
In their perception, my brother and I are eight feet tall, have a pair of cow eyes, a pair of sharp ears, and a big mouth that can eat everything. ”
“Pfft.” Master Decheng said with a smile: “Not bad, at least you still look like human beings.
The last time I heard outer disciples talking about the guy from the Lou family, I eavesdropped for quite a while but had no idea who they were talking about. ”
In the kitchen, Shi Xiaoliu's siblings and Xia Yu all heard the laughter outside. Xia Yu was a little surprised and said, "My father and uncle actually laughed."
Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "My master and uncle are both people who love to laugh. We can hear them laugh from time to time."
"It seems like this is the first time I've heard Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng laugh since I arrived here."
"That's because they are not at home often. If they are at home more often, you will find that they are very fond of laughter."
Shi Zelan spoke to Xia Yu affirmatively, and Shi Xiaoliu nodded vigorously at the side.
Xia Yu walked to the kitchen door and listened to the conversation of the elders, while Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were busy boiling water and cleaning the kitchen.
Xia Yu turned around and saw the brother and sister working slowly. He lightly pinched the cleaning technique with his fingers, and as soon as the wind blew, the kitchen was immediately clean.
