Chapter 7: Quyun Tianshi of Nanshan Taoist Temple
Seeing that Feng Zhibai was unmoved, Old Mitou smiled at Qu Yun embarrassedly and quickly pulled her sleeve.
Qu Yun didn't feel resentful because Feng Zhibai didn't return the greeting. Instead, he said gently, "I am Qu Yun, a disciple of Taoist Master Qu Wuyang of Nanshan Taoist Temple. May I ask where your master is from and where you came from? Judging from your comments on the Baiweixuan plaque just now, you shouldn't be a lay Buddhist, right?"
Qu Yun is an orthodox Taoist disciple, and Taoism divides Taoists into six levels, namely, naive Taoists, immortal Taoists, mountain Taoists, ordained Taoists, lay Taoists and chief priests.
However, there are many Taoist sects and branches, so each branch has different classifications of Taoist priests.
For example, although Qu Yun wears a green robe, he is called the Heavenly Master, which shows that his Taoism is not low.
As we all know, Taoist robes are divided into purple robes, yellow robes, red robes, cyan robes, green robes, black robes and white robes according to the level of Taoism.
Purple robes are mostly worn by high-ranking Taoist monks and lecturers in Taoist temples.
The yellow robes are used by the Heavenly Master to exorcise demons and ghosts.
The red robes are mostly used for fasting, praying, and submitting to the heavenly book.
As for the green color, it is worn by the disciples practicing Taoism in Taoist temples, and is mostly used for worshiping the stars and celebrating birthdays.
This green color represents the so-called idle lay Buddhists and individual practitioners.
Black is worn by Doubu Taoist priests.
The last white one is worn by the underworld.
Qu Yun said that the robes worn by the Heavenly Master must be yellow Heavenly Master robes.
Hearing Qu Yun asking if he was a lay Buddhist, Feng Zhibai spread his hands and thought for a moment before explaining, "I have no sect or school, I am just an idle lay Buddhist, and I have some knowledge of the Xuanmen Qimen Dunjia technique."
Qu Yun was amused by her words: "Old man? Are students' names so unique these days?" He swung his arm back and asked jokingly, "Then how should we address you?"
"You can call me a prophet."
"prophet?"
Jin Feng couldn't help but frown, feeling a little puzzled by Feng Zhibai's inexplicable confidence.
Master Qu Yun is confident and arrogant because he is a disciple from an upright Taoist temple.
This girl is just a leisurely Buddhist. Let's not talk about her abilities first. Just look at the feeling she gives people. Not only does she not have the humility of a younger generation, but she also has an awkward feeling of an elder!
Talking to her is like talking to an ancient elder.
Abnormal and weird.
Old Mitou was also shocked by Feng Zhibai's words. He hurriedly grabbed her and said with a wry smile to Jin Feng and Qu Yun, who looked a little upset, "Chairman Jin, Master Qu, this girl has read too many novels and sometimes talks nonsense. Please don't mind her! Let's not talk about this here and eat first! Don't we have to rush to Qingshantou after dinner?"
"Yes, Master Qu Yun, let's eat first. We have important things to do in the evening."
Jin Feng was also afraid that Qu Yun would be angry, so she followed Lao Mi Tou to smooth things over.
Qu Yun didn't say anything, but looked at Feng Zhibai thoughtfully. He went to the private room on the second floor amid the flattery from Jin Feng and Lao Mi Tou.
Seeing Jin Feng and Qu Yun go upstairs first, Old Mitou breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Feng Zhibai, who hadn't noticed anything behind him, and said, "Be careful with your words. We can't afford to offend those two! Especially that Heavenly Master Qu Yun. Do you know what level a Heavenly Master is?"
Stepping onto the second floor stairs, Feng Zhibai walked up gracefully, holding the hem of her skirt, and her tone hardened: "A mere Heavenly Master, what's the point of mentioning him? Qu Yun is just a disciple of the Nanshan Taoist Temple. If we talk about the depth of his Taoism, it can only be considered within the Nanshan Taoist Temple."
"Bah! Auntie, please don't say anything nonsense! Our personal safety tonight is in the hands of Master Naqu Yun!"
Feng Zhibai glanced at Lao Mitou slightly.
She's already so arrogant!
This little thing still doesn't believe that she is the prophet of metaphysics.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm doing this for your own good!"
Seeing that her expression was not right, Old Mitou clapped his hands and shouted helplessly.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Feng Zhibai responded perfunctorily and went upstairs.
The private room Jinfeng booked was the first one around the corner.
When they arrived at the private room, they were already seated.
Qu Yun sat in the main seat, while Jin Feng sat on the left.
Lao Mi Tou and Feng Zhibai were arranged to the right side.
After they sat down at the table, the food arrived before they could even talk.
Baiweixuan Restaurant has a rich menu. Although the portions are small and the prices are high, the dishes are delicious and tasty.
After the dishes were served, no one at the table ate much except Feng Zhibai, especially Jin Feng and Lao Mi Tou. Their expressions never looked good from the moment they picked up the chopsticks to the moment they put them down.
Qu Yun was better, but his frown told everyone what he was worried about.
"Tianshi..."
Halfway through the meal, seeing that no one was talking, Jin Feng couldn't help but put down her chopsticks.
Old Mitou also stopped.
Qu Yun picked up the last piece of greens and slowly wiped the remaining impurities from the corner of his mouth with a piece of paper. He looked up at Feng Zhibai, who was still devouring the food without caring about his appearance, and said in a deep voice, "Director Jin, I didn't want to come here, but Mr. Liang asked me to, so I really couldn't refuse. He also told me about Qingshantou. Although I haven't been there, judging by the corpses that were dug up and the reactions of the workers, Qingshantou is probably a dangerous place and it will be difficult to deal with."
With just one sentence, everyone at the table changed their expressions, except for a certain prophet who was still concentrating on eating.
When Old Mi saw Qu Yun staring at Feng Zhibai, he secretly pinched her under the table!
I don’t know if it’s because he’s too thick-skinned, but the prophet didn’t react at all!
“Stop eating!”
Seeing that she was unmoved, Lao Mitou stared at her and squeezed out three words from between his teeth.
Jin Feng also turned her gaze to Feng Zhibai. Her expression became increasingly gloomy and uglier as she ate!
"Miss Feng, is the food delicious?"
He tapped the table with his right hand, his voice carrying a hint of unkindness.
Feng Zhibai raised his eyelids slightly, took the last bite of the chicken leg, and put down his chopsticks with dissatisfaction.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to take care of her manners. God knows she has been hungry for hundreds of years!
The food in this world is so delicious that she was already starving just by smelling the aroma. After she finally started eating, she was only half full!
The world is so difficult!
With a sigh, Feng Zhibai took the napkin handed to him by Lao Mitou. As if he was suffering from elegance syndrome, he wiped the corner of his mouth with his orchid finger, and his voice was lazy: "Instead of asking me if the food is to my taste, why not ask me directly about Qingshantou."
Qu Yun looked at her with interest and asked softly, "You seem to know a lot about the Qingshantou incident?"
"A little bit."
She put down the napkin pretentiously, as if she knew everything but was just being modest and not saying it.
Qu Yun didn't have any ideas at first, but when he saw her like this, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
If someone is really incompetent, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant, especially in front of a true master like me.
Could it be that this little girl had once studied under some hermit master and learned the art of Qimen Dunjia?
Is it time to go down the mountain for training now?
Qu Yun raised his brows and let out a long sigh, his demeanor becoming much calmer. "Qingshantou is a ferocious place with evil spirits. The corpses that were dug out are extremely sinister. If we go there during the day, we might not see anything, but if we go there at night, it will definitely be extremely dangerous. But if we want to find out the truth, there is definitely no one else who can do it except at night. What do you think about this, young lady?"
Qu Yun's sudden change of attitude startled Jin Feng and Lao Mi Tou.
"It's the perfect time to go at the end of the You hour. Although Qingshantou is a dangerous place, it's not without solutions. The specific solution will be determined after we have negotiated with the authorities."
She is telling the truth.
We still have to go to the scene to see what those evil creatures are trying to do.
"I was thinking of the end of the You hour as well. You and I are thinking the same thing."
Standing up, Qu Yun said with a smile: "Now that the time is set and we have eaten and drunk enough, let's get ready and go to Qingshantou together later."
