“Now that you mention it, our situation is actually better now,” Yaochi said, taking a sip of wine. “Although we have to face the Bodhisattva, there is only one. If the four of us work together, there is still hope.”
Yaochi then asked them what their mission was and shared their respective identity information.
"You've really become a member of the Zhao family now," Li Changzhou said with a smile as he picked the crab meat into the crab shell.
Yaochi's true identity was that of a princess of the Song Dynasty, but she was unknown and practiced Taoism by West Lake.
“So what if you’re surnamed Zhao?” Yaochi said with a smile. “Aren’t you also surnamed Li? You’re a direct descendant of the Tang Dynasty, of noble birth.”
Li Qianxia suddenly burst into laughter.
Li Changzhou, Yaochi, and Yang Qinglan, who was looking at the information booklet, all looked at her in confusion.
Although we were just joking, was there anything that was really that funny?
Li Qianxia laughed breathlessly and said, "Do you think the 'Yang' in Qinglan might be the same 'Yang' from the Sui Dynasty?"
The three of them were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Come, come, descendants of three dynasties, sharing the same boat, such a great fate, we must drink to that!" Li Changzhou filled the four people's cups with wine, "After drinking, we will be in the same boat, sharing life and death."
All four of them drank it all in one gulp.
Li Qianxia let out a "ha" sound, as if she had drunk a bottle of cola.
Yang Qinglan put down her wine glass and lightly wiped her mouth with her sleeve.
Yaochi turned the wine cup upside down to show that she had drunk it all, and looked at Li Changzhou with a smile in her eyes.
"I've been thinking about it," Li Qianxia said, taking a piece of matsutake mushroom grilled over charcoal, "What if Bai Suzhen takes Xiaoqing directly to Guanyin Bodhisattva to get the antidote?"
“Some things are harder to eradicate than poison,” Yaochi said with a smile.
"What?" Li Qianxia stopped her fast walking and asked curiously.
"That thing is the troubles of the mortal world. Once you get involved, whether you're a demon or an immortal, you can't escape it. Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing came up to talk to us and got into trouble." Yaochi seemed to be talking about something very powerful.
Li Qianxia was taken aback: "Is it some kind of skill?"
“It’s some kind of skill,” Yaochi said with a smile.
Yang Qinglan put down the booklet, and Li Qianxia quickly picked one up, beginning to peek into her idol's private life.
"How is it?" Li Changzhou handed the crab shell to Yang Qinglan. Inside was a full shell of crab meat and crab roe that he had picked out.
"I did encounter Guanyin, but it was three days ago." Yang Qinglan held a crab shell in her left hand and a small spoon in her right, slurping a little vinegar on the crab meat and roe.
Yaochi glanced at him and secretly sent a telepathic message to Li Changzhou—"When we're together in the future, I want two crab shells from you! Otherwise, don't even think about touching me!"
—Remember this, and see if that day ever comes.
Yaochi gave him a 'just you wait' look, and pointed outside the cabin, saying:
"That's the famous Su Causeway. Speaking of which, Su Shi, besides being known as 'Dongpo Jushi,' was also called 'Tieguan Daoren.' I wonder if that has anything to do with Taoism."
From the boat, you can see the six bridges in the middle of Su Causeway: Yingbo, Suolan, Wangshan, Yadi, Dongpu, and Kuahong. They are simple and beautiful, and the banks are lined with flowers in full bloom, filling the air with fragrance.
Amidst the misty willows of the Six Bridges, pedestrians come and go in droves.
"thump!"
"Someone has fallen into the water! Someone has fallen into the water!"
"Quickly, save them!"
Li Qianxia had a piece of matsutake mushroom in her mouth as she peeked out.
On almost every cruise ship around, there were people watching the spectacle.
An elderly woman in her sixties fell into the water while walking along the bridge. She was quickly rescued and was soaked to the bone, but the Diamond Sutra in her arms remained completely dry. She immediately knelt down and kowtowed towards Lingyin Temple on Beishan Mountain.
"Really?" Li Qianxia took a sip of her wine, her eyes still fixed on the shore.
Many people around have already discussed going to Lingyin Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings.
"Since you intend to deal with the monk Ji Gong at Lingyin Temple in Beishan first, what are your plans?" Yaochi asked Yang Qinglan.
By the way, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books right now is huanyuanapp. Install the latest version.
Yang Qinglan had just finished eating the crab shell, crab meat, and crab roe when she put down the crab shell and spoon and said, "It's raining."
"Is it raining?" Li Qianxia asked curiously.
"Ji Gong likes to travel all over the world and is not necessarily at Lingyin Temple. If it rains continuously in West Lake and causes flooding, even a random copy of the Diamond Sutra in the temple will not get wet. People should go up the mountain to ask Lingyin Temple for help. In Lingyin Temple, only Ji Gong has the ability to compete with me in the art of summoning wind and rain."
"You big shots are really something... always putting the lives of all living beings on the chessboard." Li Qianxia complained.
After Yang Qinglan had eaten and drunk his fill, he picked up the Fairy Ruyi Scepter.
In that instant, a deafening roar erupted, and a thunderclap suddenly rang out in the clear sky!
Visitors to West Lake were trembling all over.
Then a strong wind arose, the surface of West Lake rippled, the willows on the shore swayed wildly, and layers of dark clouds quickly rose up on the southern part of the lake, blocking out the blue sky.
The wind howled, the sky darkened, and the once bright and sunny West Lake in spring turned as black as a demonic pool!
Another loud boom, like Thor grabbing a handful of lightning from the Thunder Pool and throwing it onto West Lake.
The heavy rain pounded down, smashing the water's surface, leaving it riddled with holes and riddled with craters.
Pedestrians on the shore shouted and ran wildly, some yelling and others laughing loudly, as if this sudden spring thunderstorm was actually a source of amusement.
Boom!!!
The earth seemed about to shatter.
This blast terrified everyone, and they dared not speak loudly anymore.
The carriages of those high-ranking officials and nobles sped off towards the nearest Qiantang Gate.
The raindrops pounded against the cruise ship like countless arrows falling on its head. The tourists inside dared not linger and urged the boatman to dock.
