"It turns out that this Taoist conference is being held at the Qianqing Temple."
Ji Miaomiao lowered her eyes, a thought flashing in her eyes.
The original owner was called by her master to attend the event at that time, and she did not remember the details of the Taoist conference, so she did not know either.
Only when Lu Xiaobai mentioned it did Ji Miaomiao know that the time and place of this Taoist conference had already been determined.
She was very concerned about the event that led to the original owner's death, so she asked Lu Xiaobai for information: "Brother, what exactly is this Taoist conference about?"
"What's the Daoist Conference about..." Lu Xiaobai paused while eating, scratched his head and said, "Actually, I'm not too sure. This is my first time attending a Daoist Conference."
Hearing this, Ji Miaomiao also realized that Lu Xiaobai's main character's journey was about an ordinary person who rose to prominence with a golden finger. How could he know the procedures of such past Taoist activities?!
She asked this question out of sheer desperation.
Ji Miaomiao reacted and smiled, intending to ask other people about what Lu Xiaobai knew.
Then Lu Xiaobai pointed at Xuanyu who was sitting next to her and said, "Junior sister, although I don't know about this matter, Xuanyu must know."
After he finished speaking, he turned to Xuan Yu and said, "Xuan Yu, can you help me tell me what the Taoist Conference is about?"
Xuan Yu had a gentle and arrogant look on his face as he was eating elegantly with chopsticks. After hearing this, he turned to look at Ji Miaomiao next to him.
Ji Miaomiao didn't understand the meaning of his look, so she smiled and said, "Senior Brother Xuanyu, thank you for your help!"
Xuan Yu hummed a "hmm" when he heard this, his expression showing a hint of condescension. He raised his head and explained calmly, "The Taoist Conference is a scheduled event that all Maoshan Taoist temples will participate in."
"The meeting will mainly include three items. The first is for the Heavenly Master to read a hexagram and predict the fortunes for the coming years. The second is a competition among the disciples of each temple to exchange their skills. As for the last item, there will be a three-day trading event open to all Taoist disciples."
"At the trade fair, the Taoist temple hosting the event will auction off some of its most valuable artifacts or materials. It's considered a grand event for the Taoist community."
Xuan Yu paused and looked at Ji Miaomiao after he finished speaking. "This year's Taoist conference will be organized by my Ganqing Temple in Kyoto on the first day of July."
This explanation was quite detailed and included everything Ji Miaomiao wanted to know.
She didn't care about Xuanyu's unpleasant attitude just now, and nodded and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Xuanyu, for clearing up my doubts."
Lu Xiaobai listened to Xuan Yu's words and then continued the previous topic: "Junior sister, when you come to Kyoto next month, I will take you to various places to eat and go shopping."
Ji Miaomiao smiled when she heard this: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior Brother."
Just as he finished speaking, Xuan Yu beside him suddenly interrupted, "You need to be invited to participate in the Taoist conference. If you are not famous, you need to find someone to recommend you to enter."
After saying that, he glanced at Ji Miaomiao casually.
After receiving this look, Ji Miaomiao finally realized what Xuan Yu was thinking with his strange tone.
This is treating her as a Taoist cultivator with no background.
Ji Miaomiao curled her lips, turned her head and smiled without any warmth, looking at Xuanyu and said, "Brother Xuanyu, you are worrying too much. Our ancestors also came from the Maoshan lineage, so there must be an invitation to the Taoist conference."
Her reply was laced with sarcasm. Without even looking at Xuan Yu's facial expression, she continued to eat with her chopsticks, her head lowered.
No one noticed that a look of surprise appeared on Xuan Yu's arrogant and awkward face after hearing these words.
"You..." That's not what I meant.
Xuan Yu wanted to explain. What he originally wanted to say was that if necessary, he could help with the introduction, but when he saw Ji Miaomiao lowered her head, the words stopped at his lips.
Chen Xuanxuan and Lin Yiwan, who were sitting next to Lu Xiaobai, were not interested in the Taoist conference they were talking about.
Both of them came from well-educated families. Although they argued over the menu before the meal, once they started eating, they adhered to the habit of not talking while eating and sleeping and concentrated on eating. Their every move was elegant.
After a while, most of the dishes on the table were eaten up, and the five people at the table put down their chopsticks after they were full.
As the only one from Chuan City among the group, Ji Miaomiao took the role of host and took them to visit various attractions in Chuan City and had fun for an entire afternoon.
The sun gradually sets and it seems to be getting late.
After Ji Miaomiao and a few others left the scenic area, they separated at the intersection.
Considering that she had to be on duty at the hospital the next day and it would be inconvenient for us to go out and play together, I recommended some attractions to them before we parted.
"Brother, have fun." Ji Miaomiao said, waved her hand and turned to leave.
Watching her walk away, Lu Xiaobai patted Xuanyu's shoulder, who had been particularly silent along the way, and teased with a smile: "Xuanyu, what you said before was a bit too much."
Xuan Yu retracted his gaze upon hearing this, glanced at Lu Xiaobai, and whispered, "Really?"
Seeing Xuan Yu's eyes lowered and his thin lips slightly pursed as if he didn't care, Lu Xiaobai explained, "I heard from Master that although Junior Sister Xuan Jing's branch has declined, it was originally a branch of the orthodox descendants of Maoshan, and has inherited a sect's heritage."
“The implications of this cannot be underestimated.”
Lu Xiaobai said this while looking straight ahead, then he glanced at Xuanyu and continued, "So, Xuanyu, your attitude is a little inappropriate. We are from the same lineage, and disciples of the same generation should be close to each other and support each other."
He meant what he said.
The situation is not good now. Evil cultivators are causing chaos in the dark, and mutated animals and plants are making noises from time to time. After the Taoist sect decided to go down the mountain to clean up the evil spirits, many fellow disciples were constantly involved in various tasks.
