A report titled "Top Scorer in College Entrance Exam Rejects Beijing University, Abandons Studies to Pursue Taoism: Why?" caused a huge sensation in China.
It swept through the entire Xianshan County like a whirlwind, making the name of the protagonist, Liu Feng, a household name.
This report not only speculated on Liu Feng's decision to abandon a top university and devote himself to Taoist cultivation, but also sparked widespread imagination and discussion about the reasons behind it.
Upon learning this news, Liu Feng's former teachers and classmates all sighed with regret.
They simply couldn't understand why a top scorer in the college entrance examination with such a bright future would make such a choice.
The teachers who had placed high hopes on Liu Feng are now filled with regret.
In their eyes, it was like a bright academic star that was about to rise, but suddenly turned to another unknown path.
The students were also discussing it. Some felt sorry for Liu Feng, thinking that he had given up a bright future; others admired his courage and praised him for daring to pursue a different path in life.
Regardless, everyone was shocked and confused by his decision.
As Liu Feng's parents, He Qunfang and Liu Changqing had mixed feelings, but they did not show excessive obsession with whether their child could enter a prestigious university.
In their view, their life is already very fulfilling. Their greatest wish is for their whole family to sit together and enjoy the happiness of family life.
But now that their son Liu Feng is in seclusion at Qingfeng Temple, not coming out, their hearts are filled with unease. They fear that their son has seen through the illusions of the world and will never return.
Fortunately, Liu Yue and Yu Jingya often comforted them, which eased their worries somewhat.
When the villagers in Liucun first heard about this, they were filled with sighs and lamentations.
Everyone felt that it was such a pity that Liu Feng, such an outstanding child, gave up the opportunity to go to university in Beijing.
However, a single sentence from their neighbor, Su Dongmei, changed everyone's mind.
Su Dongmei said firmly, "Xiaofeng went up the mountain to cultivate Taoism. The higher his cultivation level, the more he can protect our Liu Village!"
After careful consideration, everyone seemed to agree. Since Liu Feng returned from his descent from the mountain, Liu Village had indeed become increasingly peaceful.
He not only helped Su Dongmei's family solve their long-standing problem of evil spirits, but also miraculously saved a child who was drowning.
What's even more amazing is that the number of sick people in the village decreased dramatically afterward. Even during the SARS outbreak, the people of Liu Village were healthy and free from disasters.
Grandpa Liu felt this most deeply, having witnessed the family's prosperity: his eldest grandson was successful in his career, his second grandson and two granddaughters all became college students, and the Liu family was happy and harmonious.
Grandma Fang Shuxiang also became more open-minded. She often comforted her daughter-in-law He Qunfang, believing that this was a good thing destined for Liu Feng and that they should trust their child's choice.
at the same time.
After seeing the news in the newspaper, Wang Juan's father, Wang Cheng, immediately came to Wang Juan with the newspaper and said, "Juan'er, you see, Liu Feng is ultimately unreliable! You have to trust your parents' judgment."
After hearing this, Wang Juan felt a mix of emotions.
She wanted to know Liu Feng's true thoughts, so she asked her father, "Dad, I want to call him and ask him what's going on."
Looking into his daughter's expectant eyes, Wang Cheng frowned and said earnestly, "Juan'er, stop getting entangled with him. He has embarked on a very different path, and the future is full of uncertainty."
However, Wang Juan was stubborn. She shook her head and said, "Dad, I don't believe Liu Feng would do this for no reason. I must find out the truth."
Ultimately, despite her parents' advice, Wang Juan found a suitable opportunity to dial Liu Feng's phone number, hoping to get an answer from him.
As soon as the call connected, Wang Juan anxiously questioned him, her voice trembling slightly: "Liu Feng, what's the story in the newspaper? Why did you give up going to university in Beijing? You gave up so easily? What about our future?"
She did not receive a reply from Liu Feng.
On the other end of the phone came the voice of an unfamiliar old man: "Is this Miss Wang Juan? Liu Feng is currently in seclusion and cannot answer your call. He asked me to tell you: he likes you, and if you are willing, he will always like you... But he also respects your choice!"
Wang Juan hung up the phone, tears blurring her vision.
