"Master Wu, don't be nervous, everything has been resolved."
"These evil people, who were able to come here, must be greedy for my elixirs."
"Thank goodness for you."
Wu Shuang bowed again and held Ye Tian's hand, not letting go for a long time.
"Master Wu, we actually have something to ask you."
Ye Tian got straight to the point. Old Jiang was still waiting for the Mountain God Pill. He had to rush back as soon as possible so that Old Jiang could recover.
"What's the matter?" Wu Shuang looked at Ye Tian and Wan Xue again.
"Aren't you pilgrims?"
"What are you doing here?"
Wu Shuang was a little wary and looked a little flustered.
"Master Wu, I am from the Wan family. I came here this time to..."
Before Wan Xue finished speaking, Wu Shuang shook her head and said, "I won't make pills anymore. I hope you understand."
"We're not asking you to refine it, we want to borrow the Dragon Tiger Pill Furnace."
"Borrow the alchemy furnace?"
When Wu Shuang heard this, she was slightly stunned and a little confused about Wan Xue.
"You guys know how to make pills?"
"He can!"
Wan Xue pointed at Ye Tian, and Ye Tian nodded. Wu Shuang stared at Ye Tian again, and after a long moment, she muttered, "Then tell me how to make the Hundred Herb Pill?"
"Dan Yaocao Ge, can you recite it?"
"I don't know any of these." Ye Tian shook his head.
"You don't know anything, why would you lend me your alchemy furnace?"
"Forget it, since you saved my life."
"Come with me."
Wu Shuang sighed and walked inside. The temples on either side were old, their red paint fading. There were also some weeds on the eaves, swaying in the wind.
Walking into the room, incense was rising. In front of him was a peach wood statue of the Taoist Master, and Wu Shuang knelt down to worship.
The Three Pure Ones, with pears, peaches and bananas placed next to them.
There were even cookies on the tray, making the offering to the Dao Zun a bit simple.
"bye!"
Wu Shuang bowed down and then muttered something. Those were the Three Pure Ones' blessing words, and reciting them over and over again could turn misfortune into good fortune.
"You two should bow as well."
"I'll consecrate you."
"Consecration?"
Ye Tian smiled, and Wan Xue quickly shook her head. None of them believed in Taoism.
"Master Wu, please, let's use the Dragon Tiger Pill Furnace just once. We are also trying to save people."
"The best I can do is to give you a meal, and then use the Three Purities Technique to relieve the evil spirits for you."
"Evil spirit?"
"This friend is filled with evil spirits, his eyes are bloodshot, and he is destined to be a lonely star."
"You said I was doomed?"
Ye Tian looked at Wu Shuang in front of him and found it funny.
"I said it's your fate, but you have blessings around you, so you can avoid misfortune and seek good fortune." Wu Shuang secretly pointed at Wan Xue.
"Forget it. Even if I tell you, you won't believe it."
"Wait for me, I'll make you some vegetarian food."
Wu Shuang put his hands behind his back and wanted to leave. At this moment, Ye Tian moved his ears and heard a strange sound coming from the beams of the house.
At the same time, a black shadow smashed towards Ye Tian.
Ye Tian waved his hand and grabbed the black shadow directly. Wan Xue next to him also screamed in surprise.
"Banana peel!"
Ye Tian was holding a banana peel in his hand. On the beam, a gray monkey was hanging on a golden hook, baring its teeth at Ye Tian.
The monkey's butt was shaking rapidly towards Wan Xue's tail.
"Why are there monkeys here?"
"Get out of the way!"
"This is my benefactor."
Wu Shuang glared at the monkey, and the monkey flipped over again, came down from another level of the beam, then turned around and bared its teeth at Ye Tian again.
"Never mind, wild mountain monkey."
"Wild monkey?"
Ye Tian's pupils shrank, but his gaze gradually changed.
"Yes, the monkeys in the mountains often come here to snatch the offerings. I am a monk, so I am compassionate."
"Don't mind it. If it dares to hurt you, I won't forgive it." After saying that, Wu Shuang turned and went to the kitchen.
The monkey jumped on the window and kept showing its teeth.
Wan Xue was a little anxious. Seeing the monkey always pointing its butt at her, she waved at the monkey.
"This monkey is acting like a... hooligan, isn't he?"
"When a monkey points its butt at a person, it is a sign of contempt." Ye Tian said lightly.
"Contempt? A monkey despises me. Why?"
"Because, in its eyes, you are too ugly."
“I’ll go!”
Wan Xue was angered by Ye Tian's words and was about to pounce on the monkey.
The monkey leaped out of the window again.
"Come back here, you're ugly, your whole family is ugly."
Ye Tian finally managed to grab Wan Xue and said unhappily, "Miss Wan, why are you mad at a monkey? In the eyes of monkeys, fur is what makes them beautiful. You don't have any hair either, you're completely naked."
"How do you know I'm hairless?" Wan Xue's face flushed red as she said this, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed.
"It's over, I've let it slip." Ye Tian was embarrassed.
