Qin Can noticed Qin Yuanshen walking towards him, walked over to him, and said with a smile, "Dad, you're here!"
"When did you come here?" Qin Yuanshen asked.
"As for me, I came early. Mainly because I was so excited that I didn't sleep much all night, so I came here as soon as the sun rose." Qin Can said.
Qin Yuanshen nodded. "When I came in just now, I noticed that all the faces were familiar. Did Miss Li invite everyone in her circle?"
“It must be because of Mr. Shen, so my master invited people close to him.” Qin Can explained.
"Look," Qin Yuanshen said, "You don't know, but when I got there, they all asked me what was wrong with me."
Qin Can raised his eyebrows and pointed at himself, "What's wrong with me?"
"That's because you accepted Miss Li as your master. They were quite confused." Qin Yuanshen raised his hand and patted his arm. "But I explained it to them and even promoted Miss Li's business. After hearing about my ghost encounter, they've almost put their faith in Miss Li. Your Taoist temple will definitely get better and better. In time, it will definitely surpass Baiyun Temple."
"Sure, Dad." Qin Can was a little surprised and put his arm around his father's shoulders like a good friend. "They didn't believe it at first. You've really helped our Taoist temple a lot."
"Dad certainly hopes that you can carry forward the Taoist temple. I remember that this was your lofty ambition back then, and now it's gradually being realized." Qin Yuanshen was filled with emotion. He turned his head to look at Qin Can, and his previous cynicism had long since faded. He said with a look of satisfaction, "You've become a steady adult now."
Qin Can suddenly felt his eyes getting sore, and he tightened his grip on Qin Yuanshen slightly, humming softly.
Qin Yuanshen smiled and said nothing more. Everything was self-explanatory.
......
It was soon nine o'clock and the courtyard was already full of people.
Li Shu brought her two disciples, Qin Can and Lin Yan, to the door of the main hall and stopped.
Her eyes fell on the plaque covered with a red cloth. She raised her hand and waved it gently, and the red cloth hanging high above fell down.
The plaque that was revealed had three large characters written on it: "Qingfeng Hall." It was majestic and had a power that made people feel relaxed.
Li Shu clenched the red cloth in her hand, turned around and looked at the people below the stairs. Her deep eyes were dark and clear, and her voice was filled with laughter. "Qingfeng Temple officially opened in Beijing from today. To celebrate the grand opening, all talisman paper is 10% off today, but each person can only buy a maximum of ten pieces."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of firecrackers rang out outside the Taoist temple, and the rosewood door of the main hall behind him slowly opened.
"Congratulations, Master Li!"
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
"Congratulations on your grand opening!"
Congratulations were heard from the crowd one after another.
Li Shu's eyes flickered slightly. "Thank you. Anyone who needs to enter the temple to burn incense, just line up and go in. Don't squeeze."
"By the way, Master Li, we want to buy talismans?" someone else asked.
Li Shu noticed Gao Cun coming back from setting off firecrackers, waved at him, and then said, "If you want to buy talismans, just follow him."
Upon hearing this, everyone responded and began to take action.
Some people lined up to burn incense, some people bought talismans, and some people visited the Taoist temple. Everything was going on in an orderly manner.
Ji Si, who was standing below, watched this scene and sniffed. His eyes felt a little hot and he felt like crying. He said slowly, "Big brother, second brother, that's really good. Don't you agree?"
Ji Yanli turned to look at him, his eyes full of smiles, "Yes, it will get better and better."
Ji Jingchen was also quite emotional. So many things had happened in just half a year.
He still remembered the first time he saw Li Shu at home. She was so thin and looked malnourished. Now she has a rosy complexion, has gained weight, and has her own Taoist temple. He was really happy for Li Shu.
It is said that an elder brother is like a father, and he inexplicably felt as if his daughter had grown up.
Ji Si noticed him and asked, "Brother, why don't you say anything?"
"I think my eldest brother is secretly happy." Ji Yanli said.
Ji Jingchen collected his thoughts, glanced at his two younger brothers, and smiled, "Yes."
"Brother, second brother, let's go in and burn some incense and see what it looks like inside!" Ji Si said again.
Ji Jingchen hummed, "Let's go."
......
Soon, the three brothers lined up in order and entered the Qingfeng Hall.
"Oh my god, this golden statue is made of real gold." Ji Si looked at the golden statue in front of the hall, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, "It's also life-size."
"It's real gold." Ji Yanli took a look and said, "This should be the master in Xiaoshu's dream."
Ji Si touched his hair and said, "No, this master really exists. I always thought Xiaoshu made it up as a joke..."
Ji Yanli folded his arms, his gaze fell on the tablet under the golden statue again. His eyes moved slightly, but he said nothing more.
In fact, he knew that what Li Shu said at the beginning was probably half true and half false. This master really existed, and the dream was just an excuse she used to explain it conveniently.
In addition, she said at the time that she started practicing Taoism with the master in her dream when she was ten years old. In that case, why was she still beaten and scolded by Li Dayou all day long? She obviously had the ability to resist easily, so why didn't she get out of that environment earlier?
Moreover, the talisman paper she drew was so effective that she could achieve financial freedom with it. Then why did she not have enough to eat or wear?
After all, when she was brought back, she was almost skin and bones, and they all saw it.
In fact, after seeing how powerful Li Shu was, he did suspect that it was someone else.
Especially since he knew that ghosts existed in this world, he already had a bold guess in his mind.
Maybe her own sister had died on the night Ji Qianya sent people to kill her.
But he didn't want to conduct an in-depth investigation or verify anything, as he was afraid that his guess might be true.
For the first time, he felt the urge to retreat because he selfishly didn't want to disrupt the current tranquility and beauty.
"Second brother?"
"Hmm?" Ji Yanli came back to his senses and looked up at him, "What's wrong?"
"Second brother, what are you thinking about? I've called you several times, but you didn't respond at all." Ji Si asked curiously.
"Nothing." Ji Yanli's eyes flickered, and he noticed that the person in front of him had just finished burning incense, and immediately reminded him, "It's your turn."
"Oh." Ji Si didn't ask any more questions. He turned around and walked forward, taking the three incense sticks handed to him by Qin Can who was standing beside him.
After that, he bowed to the golden statue, then put the incense into the incense burner and walked aside to wait for his two brothers to finish offering incense.
Seeing this, Ji Yanli walked forward and followed the same steps and procedures as Ji Si, except that before he turned around and left, he deliberately glanced at the words written on the tablet.
It turns out that Li Shu’s master is called Xuanqing Zhenren.
