They probably ran too fast in the morning and got too far from the city gate. By the time Yaoyao and her group returned to the city gate, it was already noon.
Meanwhile, the servants of the Chen family at the city gate were already waiting anxiously.
Upon seeing Chen An, his eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward, saying, "Young Master, we've finally waited for you. Madam must have been anxiously waiting."
Chen An nodded slightly.
When Yaoyao and Abbess Huicheng arrived at the Chen residence, Madam Chen was already waiting in the main hall.
Upon seeing Chen An, she scolded him, "Didn't you say you'd arrive this morning? Why are you so late?"
Chen An briefly explained the situation to Madam Chen, who gratefully grasped Yao Yao's hand and said, "Thanks to the little master's quick thinking, otherwise I don't know what would have happened to my An'er."
"Cough cough, it's nothing, it's all part of the job."
Yao Yao pulled her hand away; she wasn't used to being close to people.
Especially since this person is Chen An's mother.
According to Master Huicheng, Chen An was suffering from headaches and insomnia every night, seemingly due to nightmares and being haunted by unclean spirits. Someone suggested finding a highly accomplished Buddhist disciple to recite scriptures for him every night.
So Chen An, who was gathering herbs on the mountain, "accidentally" came across the small nunnery and thought of his elderly father who was being plagued by nightmares. He then invited the nunnery to treat his father's illness.
Yao Yao sat in the guest room arranged by the Chen family, staring at the furnishings with boredom.
Although Yaoyao was a cultivation failure, her little brain wasn't wasted. After failing to cultivate, she started tinkering with formations.
She could easily see through the formation of such a low-level world.
The array within this room gradually weakens people, leaving them listless and drained of their spiritual energy.
It seems that Chen An is still after Mo Ze.
Yao Yao lifted Mo Ze up. "Hey, why are you so sought after?"
Mo Ze, who had been brutally ravaged: ? ? ? Why am I being targeted?
Hmph, woman.
In the evening, Abbess Huicheng had already gone to chant sutras for Master Chen.
After dinner, Yao Yao sat in the yard looking at the stars.
At this moment, Madam Chen arrived and saw Yao Yao and Mo Ze sitting on the steps as soon as she entered the courtyard.
He smiled kindly and asked, "What are you doing, little Master Qingming?"
Upon seeing Madam Chen's sudden visit, Yao Yao knew it must be at Chen An's behest, and instantly switched into mode.
"Looking at the stars."
Madam Chen led Yao Yao to a chair nearby and asked, "When did you become a disciple, little Master Qingming?"
"One month ago."
Madam Chen looked surprised. "I think you're about the same age as my daughter. At this age, most girls have a boyfriend or are married. Why did you suddenly decide to become a nun?"
Yao Yao's eyes were empty, devoid of joy or sorrow. "Life is unpredictable. When I went to visit a friend with my parents, we encountered bandits who not only robbed us of our belongings, but also tragically killed my parents. I should have gone with them. However, we were rescued by people from the nunnery. I had seen through the illusions of the world and had no more attachments, so I entered the Buddhist order."
Madam Chen's eyes revealed a hint of pity as she took out a paper package from her sleeve. "These are some pastries I made myself, so I'm giving them to you as a gift."
Yao Yao promptly declined, saying, "How can this be? Monks cannot accept these things."
Madam Chen said, "How can it be out of control? You saved my son today, and I should be grateful to you. It's nothing, just some cakes."
Yao Yao hesitated, "This...isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
Madam Chen pressed on, saying, "Young monk, that's not right. You monks value cause and effect the most. You saved my son, which is a cause. If I can't do something about it, I'll feel bad."
Yao Yao had no choice but to reluctantly agree, "Alright, just this once."
Madam Chen smiled and said, "Well then, I won't disturb the young master any longer."
Then, without realizing it, he saw Mo Ze standing to the side.
"Young master, is this your pet? It looks so intelligent."
"No, Xiaobai is my friend."
Madam Chen asked Yao Yao, "May I touch it?" Seeing Yao Yao's confusion, she added, "Little Master, don't misunderstand. I've always liked these spirited little animals. I like it because it's so spirited."
"Oh, but Little White doesn't like being touched. Mrs. Chen, please be careful, it will scratch you."
