Chapter 236
Master Zhihui took Jin Chaochao into the rest area next to the main hall.
He sat down at the tea table, and the little monk beside him poured tea skillfully.
Wisdom made an inviting gesture, "Try the temple's new tea this year!"
He usually doesn't serve this tea to entertain others.
Jin Chaochao took a sip and found the tea fragrant and sweet. "New tea paired with mountain spring water is really different."
"The spring water in the back hill is truly unique, sweet and refreshing. If you like it, you can bucket some water when you go back and use it to make tea. It will have a different flavor." Wisdom also took a sip.
"Then I won't be polite!"
After they finished their tea, Zhihui spoke up, "Chao Chao, why did you come here this time?"
Jin Chaochao took out 37 pieces of talisman paper and placed them in front of Zhihui. "Among these lonely ghosts, there are some extremely evil ones. Since I want to requisition that piece of land, I have to deal with them properly. I came here today to ask Master to help them transcend."
Wisdom picked up the talisman paper and carefully sensed the breath inside.
After a long time, he put down the last piece of talisman paper, and said with a grim look: "This is a big project! These ghosts are very obsessed, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with."
Of course, wild ghosts that did not have strong obsessions or heavy resentment would have been reduced to ashes after hundreds of years.
Jin Chaochao's face was solemn. "If the master can't do anything, then I'm in trouble, right?"
"It's not that there is no way, but it's more troublesome to do, and it can't be solved in a short time." Wisdom sighed, "The best way to save the souls is to find their obsessions and then find a way to resolve them."
It would take more than a month if 37 ghosts were to convert one each day.
He was probably still frightened and lacked the strength.
Last time, Jin Chaochao handed two ghosts over to Wuxin, and he converted them in just one night. He thought this would not be a difficult task.
That no longer appears to be the case.
Master Zhihui turned around and told the monk beside him, "Go and call Qingning over!"
Jin Chaochao was puzzled, "Why are you calling Qingning?"
"I will send him to go with you, and you will help him to convert these ghosts. Although it will take a long time, it can be solved!" said the wise master seriously.
Jin Chaochao: “…”
She suspected that Zhihui wanted to use these ghosts to train Qingning, but was afraid that he could not cope with it, so he asked her for help.
After a while, Qingning came.
He was wearing a white cotton and linen robe, and his delicate face glowed white. When he saw Jin Chaochao, he immediately saluted, "Sister Chaochao!"
Jin Chaochao responded with a smile, "Xiao Qingning, how are you?"
Qingning suddenly smiled shyly.
Master Zhihui then spoke, "Chao Chao brought some ghosts who need to be saved today. My ability is limited now, and I am afraid that I can't do this well. Now I hand it over to you, and I hope you can complete it with all your heart and effort."
Qingning answered very obediently, "Yes, Qingning will definitely live up to the master's orders."
Jin Chaochao also responded, "Then I'll trouble Junior Brother Qingning."
Qingning smiled and said, "Glad to help!"
Master Zhihui waved to Qingning and said, "Go pack up and leave with Chaochao later."
After that, he looked at Jin Chaochao and said with a heavy face, "Chaochao, sit down! I'm sure you can see that my time is coming to an end. I don't have much time left."
Jin Chaochao nodded, "If Master has any instructions, just let me know."
Zhihui personally poured a cup of tea for Jin Chaochao, and then he spoke quietly, "Then I will be shameless! The premise of the prosperity of Jingtan Temple is that I am the supporter. Among these young people, Wuxin is the most promising, but he still needs to practice in the mountains for a few years. And managing the trivial affairs of the temple is not suitable for him. I plan to choose one of these younger generations to train and take my place."
Jin Chaochao raised an eyebrow, "You chose Qingning?"
"Yes!" Wisdom sighed, "Qingning is smooth in his work, pure in mind, upright in character, and a very talented person. It's a pity that he is not experienced enough in the world, doesn't understand the wickedness of human nature, and lacks some understanding in his cultivation."
Jin Chaochao sat obediently and waited for Zhihui to finish speaking.
"In terms of comprehension, Chaochao is a well-deserved genius. Let Qingning follow you and learn as much as she can. It just so happens that converting ghosts is also a form of cultivation. You came at the perfect time today, so I would like to ask Chaochao to take care of me in the future."
Jin Chaochao stood up from his chair and bowed politely, "Master, you are too kind. Since you have entrusted me with this, I will definitely fulfill my mission."
It just so happened that Qingning left with her to do something for her.
Master Zhihui took a step back and bowed solemnly to Jin Chaochao, "Chaochao, the future of Jingtan Temple is entirely in your hands."
She quickly reached out to support Master Zhihui, "Don't say that. The future of Jingtan Temple depends on Senior Brother Wuxin and Junior Brother Qingning."
Speaking of Wuxin, Zhihui's expression became even more solemn.
A few days ago, he had told Wuxin his fortune, and the fortune showed that his future would be shrouded in blood mist, with more disasters than blessings.
He has already ordered Wuxin to practice in the mountains and not to leave for ten years.
I hope he can escape the disaster and survive.
Qingning was very fast. He packed up his things and came to Zhihui again.
Zhihui raised her hand and patted his shoulder, saying earnestly: "It will take a long time to go. Master is not around, so you have to make all the decisions on your own. You are not a child anymore, you have to shoulder your own responsibilities."
Qingning clasped his hands together and replied respectfully: "Disciple will follow Master's instructions!"
Qingning was originally an ordinary disciple, but now he has been promoted to Zhihui's direct disciple and is of the same generation as Wuxin.
Wisdom also places high hopes on him.
Little did he know that he would never see his master again.
Wisdom stays in the brocade and eats vegetarian meals every morning.
At the dinner table, he personally picked up dishes for Qingning and added rice to his plate, just like an old father sending his son on a long journey.
Qingning's younger generation were all wisely adopted and personally taught.
His behavior today was no different from the past, and Qingning didn't notice it at all.
While Qingning was pouring tea, Jin Chaochao said, "How about I send someone to pick Qingning up another day?"
After all, the old monk is about to die, and if Qingning cannot see him off, it will be a regret for the rest of his life.
Wisdom shook his head, "No, I have chosen someone to take my place temporarily. When Qingning comes back again, he will take over my position directly."
Everything is within his calculation.
Qingning will surely achieve great enlightenment on this trip.
After eating the vegetarian meal, Jin Chaochao took Qingning away.
Before leaving, she gave ten space talismans to the old monk and asked him to find someone to take them up the mountain and give them to Wuxin.
The space is filled with Xuanmen’s rice, fruits, vegetables, etc., enough for Wuxin to eat for about a year in the mountains.
As Jin Chaochao walked out of the temple, she heard three loud bells and drums.
Qingning looked back at the huge temple, paused for a moment, raised his head and said with a smile, "Master is praying!"
Jin Chaochao saw his innocent face and complained in his heart: Silly monk, this is the old monk saying goodbye to him!
The rumbling sound of the bells echoing in the mountains, accompanied by the midday sunshine, makes people feel refreshed and happy.
Jin Chaochao brought Qingning back to the Fu family.
