Childhood sweethearts
“Almost there! Almost there!”
Fu Shutao's voice was as warm as the sunshine at this moment.
Jiang Mingyi said painfully: "Taotao, that's what you said half an hour ago..."
Jiang Baiyun panted and weakly echoed: "That's right! I feel like my legs are no longer my own."
Fu Shutao couldn't help laughing, "This time it's really coming!"
As soon as the words fell, a gentle male voice was heard, "Taotao, you're back."
ah! ! ! Someone! !
It seems that Taotao didn’t lie to us this time!
“We’re really here!”
Happiness came so suddenly that everyone almost cried for joy.
They looked back at the town that was as small as a miniature, and a sense of accomplishment arose in their hearts.
It sure feels good to conquer a mountain!
Fu Shutao had already rushed towards the direction of the voice, "Hang Yun!"
Jiang Xuefeng turned around immediately.
who? who? ? Is he a hermit master?
A man walked out from the path among the trees. He was not very old and was wearing a half-worn blue-grey Taoist robe. His hair was neatly tied into a bun. He had delicate features and a calm expression. When he looked at Fu Shutao, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
Fu Shutao had already rushed to his side, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hang Yun, you have grown taller again."
Hang Yun said helplessly: "You have to call me Fifth Brother."
"Don't call me! We were picked up on the same day!" Fu Shutao ignored him and introduced him to everyone, "This is my master's fifth disciple, named Hang Yun."
Everyone greeted each other and walked along the path towards the Taoist temple.
The road here has become flat, and the live broadcast room has been reopened.
[The director team is so inhumane that they kept it locked up for so long! ]
[Do you know how happy I have been for such a long time? ! ]
[yeah? ? There is a new handsome little Taoist priest! ]
[Is this the time? ]
But it’s not here yet!
The guests walked along a path lined with pine trees on both sides, and then passed through a strange stone forest. Suddenly, two broad rocks about three meters high appeared in front of them, slanting on the left and right, like two gates, leaving only a narrow path in the middle.
The rocks are covered with the scent of wind and frost, but if you look closely, you can see the words "Luyang Temple" engraved on both stones.
An ancient and solemn atmosphere suddenly hit me.
"Wow! What a historical feeling!" Xingxing opened his mouth wide.
Hang Yun smiled slightly and explained: "According to the records of our Luyang Temple, this stele has a history of 1,286 years."
Everyone was shocked.
[Wow! Over 1000 years old stone! ]
[No wonder the handwriting is a little unclear]
[Luyang Temple has existed for more than 1,000 years, and its heritage has never been broken. How could such a great place not be developed? ? ? ]
[It really looks like a fairy mountain! ! ]
Jiang Xuefeng also felt that this was a fairy mountain.
The narrow path sandwiched between two huge rocks looks like it was carved out by an immortal.
The width of this path is less than two meters, but once you walk through it, the view in front of you suddenly opens up.
From what I can see, it looks like a Taoist temple, but not quite.
It is said to be like a Taoist temple mainly because of the towering ancient trees in the courtyard, moss growing under the bluestone slabs, and mottled marks on the walls. The whole building exudes a simple and ancient atmosphere. To the south and north of the courtyard is the main hall for worship, which is very solemn.
The guests all fell silent unconsciously.
But as soon as I entered the Taoist temple, I saw five or six half-grown children playing under the ginkgo tree in the middle of the courtyard, laughing loudly.
At first glance, it looks more like the yard of an ordinary farmer's house in the mountains, not a Taoist temple.
Fu Shutao smiled slightly, walked over quietly, and asked, "What are you playing?"
"We are picking ginkgo leaves!" A little girl with two buns on her head was working hard and answered without even raising her head.
"Did the master send you out because he was annoyed by you causing trouble in the kitchen?" Fu Shutao asked with a smile.
“No way!” the little girl snorted, then realized something was wrong, raised her head, opened her eyes wide, and let out a series of screams, “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
In the kitchen where smoke was curling up, a middle-aged man wearing the same Taoist robe as Hang Yun ran out hurriedly with a spatula in his hand, asking "What's wrong?"
The guests looked at him curiously.
Fu Shutao was delighted and called out obediently, "Master!"
Master? ? ? ?
Everyone's eyes widened in shock.
Jiang Xuefeng: “…”
My disillusionment with the hermit master has been shattered!
Fu Sui'an and Fu Shiyuan were more shocked than he was.
Isn’t Taotao’s master seventy years old? ?
She doesn’t even look 50 years old!
There was also an uproar on the barrage.
[I’m sorry, I always thought Taotao’s master was an old Taoist priest with a celestial appearance…]
[At least put the spatula down (holding his head)]
[I am dying of laughter. In the whole Taoist temple, the old ones are yelling and the young ones are calling out, but the most steady one is actually the young Taoist priest Hang Yun! ]
[Hahahaha, what a Taoist temple with a breath of life]
[Master’s title→Master Chef]
Fu Tiancheng was so absorbed in cooking that he forgot the time. He thought something had happened and ran out in a hurry. Now he realized what was happening and immediately acted like a hermit. He smiled and said to Taotao, "You're back!"
Then he smiled at the other guests: "Welcome."
Everyone: “…”
First-class face-changing performance artist!
Everyone greeted each other politely, and Fu Shutao glanced at the kitchen and reminded worriedly: "Master, will the food in the pot get burnt?"
"I'll go cook first. You take everyone for a walk and we'll eat later!" Fu Tiancheng's mind was immediately drawn back to the kitchen, and he reminded them, "Remember to burn some incense when you come back!"
"Okay." Fu Shutao nodded.
Before she finished her words, the children had already thrown themselves into her arms, and a series of childish words came out of their mouths:
"Sixth Senior Sister, is it fun going down the mountain?"
"Are you leaving now that you're back?"
"Sixth Senior Sister, we received the dog toys you bought. They are so fun!"
"Will the eldest brother and the others come back too?"
“…”
Taotao patiently answered everyone's questions, not missing a single one, and held the bowl of water very evenly.
[It turns out that Taotao is the sixth child in the Taoist temple 23333]
[Sister suddenly becomes elder sister]
[Are all these children in the Taoist temple adopted by Taotao’s master? ]
[In this temple, Master Taotao is the only adult, right? ]
[Taotao is surrounded by little Taoist priests hahaha]
[So cute, auntie wants to stick with me too]
Soon, some unpleasant remarks emerged.
[The Taoist temple is so dilapidated, why raise so many children? ]
[Why not send the children down the mountain to receive a better education? ]
[Someone has been adopting orphans for so many years and then says it’s out of kindness? ? ? To be honest, I have seen a lot of dirty things, I don’t believe it…]
[If you ask me, there is no need for Fu Shutao's master to stay in this Taoist temple. It is already in disrepair. It would be better for him to go down the mountain. Fu Shutao's family is so rich, can't they afford to support so many people? ]
[Li Tao, this living environment is indeed not suitable for children. It is inconvenient to go up and down the mountain, and it is isolated from the world, which is not conducive to their growth]
…
The barrage soon turned into a quarrel.
Fu Shutao didn't know about this. After being intimate with his fellow apprentices, he regained his freedom and said to everyone with a smile: "Let Hang Yun take you around. I'll go burn incense."
Xingxing asked in a low voice: "Sister Taotao, can I go and take a look?"
She had never been to a Taoist temple and was curious about everything.
Jiang Xuefeng also raised his hand, "I want to go and see it, too."
Fu Shutao was stunned and glanced at Hang Yun.
Seeing Hang Yun nodded with a faint smile, Fu Shutao said, "Okay! Then let's go together!"
Fu Sui'an and Fu Shiyuan both noticed the eye contact between the two of them. They didn't know what it meant, but they remembered it silently.
Fu Shutao walked in front, but did not go to the main hall. Instead, he went out of the courtyard and walked towards the small path on the left.
After walking for a while, we saw a white arched stone door. It looked very new, completely different from the old appearance of the Taoist temple.
Fu Shutao smiled and asked Hang Yun: "Did Master just ask someone to do this?"
"Yeah." Hang Yun nodded, "There are still workers inside today."
Fu Shutao sighed.
[The master was reluctant to use the money to repair the ancestral hall, so he used it to repair this place first. 】
Fu Sui'an and Fu Shiyuan were both stunned. They didn't know where this place was, but they could clearly feel that Taotao's expression suddenly became solemn as soon as she stepped through the door.
This was Taotao they had never seen before.
But after they went in and looked up, they were all stunned.
As soon as the camera of the live broadcast room entered the door, it shook violently and pointed at the ground.
[What's wrong? What's wrong? ]
[I don’t see anything, what’s inside? ]
[I'm timid, don't scare me! ]
Is there anything that can’t be photographed? ? ? ]
[The reaction was too quick. The camera turned to the ground as soon as I entered.]
The audience had no idea what was going on, but they heard the staff quietly asking, "Can we film it?"
Fu Shutao said with confidence: "Sure, go ahead and shoot. They won't mind."
The camera in the live broadcast room slowly moved upwards, taking the entire scene into the lens.
After seeing clearly, the audience was speechless.
[This... little dirt bag... is it the one I was thinking of? ]
[yes! Grave mound
[Looking back, there are tombstones behind]
Why are there so many graves? ]
[I was really shocked]
[It looks a bit old, but it is well maintained]
[Is this the cemetery of Luyang Temple? However, since Luyang Temple has been passed down for so many years, it is normal for it to have so many tombs.]
The audience were shocked when they saw this from a distance, not to mention the guests.
Everywhere they looked, there were piles of graves. If they looked closely, the back was a bit messy, but towards the front, it was neat and tidy.
Yao Lixuan asked carefully: "Where is this?"
Fu Shutao was lighting incense, so Hang Yun explained for her, "In the last century, when resisting foreign invasion, 58 people from Luyang Temple went down the mountain to fight, and 57 of them died in the battle. This is their cenotaph."
His voice was flat and his tone was very calm, but everyone's throat seemed to be choked and they couldn't say a word.
How could this be just the cemetery of Luyang Temple? !
It is clearly a martyrs' cemetery.
[Wow, wow, wow, I'm crying]
[I felt scared just now, sorry! ! ! ]
[The body cannot be brought back, only the cenotaph T_T]
[No wonder there are no old people in the Taoist temple! ! ]
[tears in my eyes]
[Thanks to our ancestors who sacrificed their lives and shed their blood to bring us the peace we have today. ]
[pay tribute! ]
[I bow from a distance to thank my predecessors.] ]
…
In the cemetery, Fu Shutao held the incense with a serious expression, bowed once, twice, and three times, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner at the door.
After she finished the ceremony, she smiled and explained to everyone, "Every time someone from our temple comes down the mountain and returns safely, they will come here to burn incense."
Everyone: “…”
Woo woo woo, I feel even worse.
Fu Sui'an was silent for a moment before he asked softly, "Can I also light a stick of incense?"
"Of course." Fu Shutao smiled brightly, "If they knew someone was coming to visit them, they would definitely be very happy."
Each of the guests lit a stick of incense, and even the staff of the program team couldn't help but come and pay their respects during their free time.
Hang Yun saw Taotao looking at the master who was carving the tombstone and explained to her, "The master said that he was afraid that he would forget the names of these people as he got older, so he should quickly erect the tombstone now."
[Wow, wow, the inheritance of Luyang Temple was almost broken]
[So the only person who survived is Taotao’s master? ]
[I don’t think so. The ages don’t match.]
[I guess the master is the next generation]
…
Fu Shutao pursed her lips, not liking to hear her master say such things, and muttered, "Don't we still have you?"
Fu Shiyuan heard this nearby and immediately realized, "Is Taoist Priest Hang Yun the successor of Luyang Temple?"
In this case, it makes sense that Taotao communicated with him through eye contact just now!
Hang Yun:?
A Taoist priest is a Taoist priest, why call him a little Taoist priest?
Fu Shutao didn't notice his displeasure, and nodded with a smile, "Yes, our comrade Hang Yun is young and promising, with extraordinary talent, and will be the next abbot of Luyang Temple."
Everyone was amused by Taotao's exaggerated tone, and the depressed atmosphere was instantly swept away.
[Taotao is really good at adjusting the atmosphere]
[Hahaha, who understands? I was crying and laughing at the same time]
[Comrade Hang Yun looks very helpless]
[That’s great, Luyang Temple can continue its inheritance! ! ]
[Excuse me, is Luyang Temple open to tourism? I want to see it too]
[Go travel +1]
[It’s the National Day Golden Week, so I can go hiking! ]
…
When the staff saw the news, they quickly reported it to Director Shen.
Director Shen's heart moved, and he found an opportunity to quietly tell Fu Shutao about this.
If tourism can develop, it will not only benefit Luyang Temple, but also their programs. This is a win-win choice for both sides.
When Fu Shutao heard the news, her eyes lit up and she felt very happy.
[I know that once everyone sees Luyang Temple, they will like it! I have to take you all to visit more places on the mountain in the afternoon! 】
The guests were exhausted from climbing the mountain in the morning, so after lunch they went back to their rooms for a nap. Fu Shutao did not sleep, and took her master and Hang Yun to discuss the afternoon activities with Director Shen.
Of course, this part will not be broadcast live to the audience. After all, we have to maintain a sense of mystery!
*
At 2 pm, the live broadcast room was finally reopened.
[I took a nap in fear of missing the live broadcast! ]
[Hahahaha me too, I set two alarms]
[I don’t know where to go this afternoon (rubbing my hands in anticipation.jpg)]
[I feel like there are beautiful things everywhere on Luyang Mountain, so you can just walk around and chat]
[It’s good to be quiet]
[I really want to see the daily life of those little Taoist priests! ]
The audience had all kinds of ideas, but Director Shen had his own ideas: "This afternoon, there are no restrictions on everyone's activities. You can do whatever you want, but the requirement is to live broadcast the whole process, and then! Before 6 pm, each group must submit a creative photo."
"All eight guests must appear in each photo, but the content of the photo shoot is decided by each group, and finally everyone in Luyang Temple votes for their favorite photo. The winner will receive 200 yuan in cash. Please note that this 200 yuan in cash can be used as the initial fund for the next recording! The group with the least votes will also be punished. The dinner at Luyang Temple that night will be given to the last place!"
[Director Shen’s idea is great! ]
[Hahahaha everyone acted together and perfectly avoided Taotao's host advantage. ]
[With the training of the guests, the program team has become more and more savvy]
[We can enjoy the scenery while competing at the same time, looking forward to it! ]
[I have a feeling this will be an afternoon filled with lots of laughs! ]
[When it comes to creativity, Taotao and Xuange's brain circuits are not normal. I guess the champion is between the two of them]
[Have you forgotten that a group of adults lost to an elementary school student last night? Maybe Xingxing can win? ]
[I think Jiang Xuefeng has been acting a bit weird lately, a bit like a middle school student, but he is still capable of fighting]
The competition is a serious one, so of course it must be fair and just.
So the person leading the way was not Fu Shutao, nor the taciturn Hang Yun, but her master directly.
After all, Fu Tiancheng has lived in the mountains longer than the two younger ones combined.
He took everyone to the places the children liked to go on weekdays. As soon as they walked out, they saw a swing with several children swinging slowly.
Fu Tiancheng pointed at one of them and said with a smile, "This swing was made by Taotao when she was a child based on the information in the reference book. When it was just made, she asked me to go up and try it. As a result, she started swinging it non-stop. My old bones were almost broken by her swinging."
Fu Shutao couldn't help laughing when he thought of the scene at that time. He and his master exposed each other's shortcomings: "Didn't I tell my master that Hang Yun said he wanted to be the first one to sit, but you insisted on getting on. If I don't shake it for a while to let Hang Yun vent his anger, I'm afraid he won't let me ride the little wooden horse he made!"
Hang Yun: “…”
He stood quietly by, his face numb.
Is that to vent my anger? It was obviously that Master and Junior Sister were having so much fun that they completely forgot about me, okay? ? ?
[Hahahaha, was Taotao so naughty when she was a child?]
[Wow, Taotao and Hangyun have a great relationship]
[Damn it, my CP brain is acting up, I feel like I can do some more]
[Childhood sweetheart, I got it]
[I’ll say something that no one else has said: Taotao’s master is also very naughty and cute]
[Does anyone find the description of shaking yellow particularly vivid? ]
…
As soon as Yao Lixuan thought of that scene, he couldn't help but laugh, "I think this scene can be filmed. If there is nothing more suitable after going around, I will film this one."
"There will be a lot more exciting things to come, don't be impatient, Brother Xuan."
Fu Shutao was very happy. There were so many natural landscapes to see, and we hadn’t even started walking yet!
Going further ahead, there is a cave with an entrance that is about one person tall. The water flowing out is icy cold. Fu Shutao caught a handful of water and said with a smile, "We often go in there to play in the summer. It's not very deep inside, but it gets narrower and narrower. At the narrowest part, you can see a huge statue of a god. It was formed naturally and is very interesting."
What she said made everyone eager to go in the water, but the weather was a bit cold and it was not suitable to go in the water.
"What a pity." Xingxing sighed.
Tao Tao said with a smile: "When summer comes, we will take all the equipment and go together." They had gone in empty-handed before and there was no danger, but since it was a live broadcast after all, they still had to give everyone some safety tips.
Next, Fu Tiancheng took them to see Yingxing Spring, Xianyun Ladder... and so on.
It was almost sunset when they stepped onto the platform.
Dengxiantai on the top of the mountain is the highest place in the entire Luyang Mountain. It is a flat stone platform. Standing on it, you can see all the other mountains and the sunlight. It is like standing on a stage illuminated by spotlights, with the sun's rays shining all over your body.
Fu Shutao squinted her eyes and watched the slowly setting sun, feeling very happy.
[The sunset seen from Dengxiantai is definitely the most beautiful in the world. My third and fourth brothers have come to see it this time. When my eldest brother and the others come, I will bring them up to see it as well! 】
Fu Sui'an looked at Taotao's satisfied smile and felt grateful to Fu Tiancheng. Fortunately, her master took care of her. Although Taotao had financial difficulties when she was a child, her spiritual life was free and rich, which was not an easy thing.
Fu Shiyuan looked at Taotao's face and felt lucky for the nth time in his heart - Fortunately, when I first met Taotao, I could hear her thoughts, otherwise I would have almost missed it.
[The sunset here is so beautiful]
[I must travel to Luyang Temple this year! ]
[The video doesn’t lie, this place is so beautiful, it makes my heart beat! ]
[Make a wish to get rich (put your hands together)]
[I hope the lottery ticket I bought today will win the prize! ]
[I wish I don’t fail the final exam]
…
[Hahahaha, as expected, the essence of beautiful scenery is a wishing machine]
*
While enjoying the scenery, the four groups did not forget to take creative photos of themselves.
The first thing to do when returning to the Taoist temple is to vote.
Fu Tiancheng and Hang Yun, who accompanied the whole process, lost their voting rights, so only the young Taoists were left to vote. They unanimously chose No. 3 - that was the creative photo of Fu Shutao's group.
Their group was filmed in the cave with backlight.
Eight people together, drawing swords with their backs to the light. Your faces can’t be seen clearly in the photo, but they look murderous.
But if you look carefully, you will know that these eight swords are the small wooden swords borrowed from the children for their daily practice!
Yao Lixuan curiously asked the reason and got a variety of answers:
“I think black and white looks good!”
"Draw the sword, so cool!"
“Cool.”
"The others are so cute, this one is cool!"
“…”
Jiang Mingyi burst out laughing, "Taotao, your Taoist temple's aesthetics are really very consistent!"
Fu Shutao smiled proudly and said, of course!
Jiang Xuefeng tried to get close to Fu Tiancheng and asked, "Master Fu, which one do you like best?"
Fu Tiancheng glanced at him with a smile and said, "Of course it's the one with Taotao."
Jiang Xuefeng: “…”
All right! Woo woo woo! !
Fu Shutao chuckled.
[Hahahahahahaha Jiang Xuefeng asked my master this question, and he really asked the right person! He is a typical biased person, who only favors his own people. 】
She had imagined that if she and Hang Yun were both selected, the master would say, "I like both of them. I can't choose which one is better!"
The audience's aesthetic tastes are not so consistent, and everyone has their own preferences.
[I like the Taotao one too! ]
[I prefer Xuan Ge’s, it has a strong sense of narrative]
[No one likes Sunset Beauty? I love the color tone of this photo by Jiang Baiyun]
[Jiang Mingyi is still laughing. You know, no one likes your photo of a group of people soaking their feet, hahahahahaha]
[It’s a really explosive idea, but Mr. Fu didn’t reject it]
[I already know what you are going to say, let me say it for you: I got it! ! ! (Heart-wrenching version)]
Director Shen came and announced: "Because only Fu Shutao's group received votes, and the other three groups received 0 votes, so dinner will be prepared by you three groups!"
Fu Shutao breathed a sigh of relief.
[Great! If I had entered the kitchen, Master would have kicked me out in public! 】
Upon hearing this, Fu Shiyuan swiftly entered the kitchen and whispered to Fu Tiancheng, "Master Fu, did Taotao have any trauma about cooking when she was a child?"
Fu Tiancheng's eyes flashed with a complicated light, "She..." It was hard to describe. He pointed at the dark marks on the door and told Fu Shiyuan: "This is the first time she entered the kitchen and burned it down."
Fu Shiyuan: “…”
Cooking or burning the kitchen? !
Fu Tiancheng pointed to a broken pot among the sundries piled in the corner and said, "This is the pot that Taotao broke the second time she went into the kitchen. I kept it and used it as a charcoal brazier for warming fire in winter."
Fu Shiyuan: “…”
Taotao has a relatively clear self-awareness, she is indeed a killer in the kitchen!
However, the master was bold enough. After burning the kitchen, he still dared to let Taotao in.
Fu Tiancheng understood his expression and sneered, "Taotao is greedy. If I didn't teach her how to cook, I would be afraid that she would starve to death outside after coming down the mountain. So she made this mistake for our kitchen! Now that you are taking care of her at the foot of the mountain, I feel much more at ease."
[It turns out Taotao is a kitchen killer! ]
[It’s so funny, the house is burning and the pot is killing, the kitchen is shaking]
[Master’s understanding of Taotao is extremely clear]
[Only by pampering Taotao without spoiling her too much can she grow up to have such a character. Master is so kind! ! ]
Fu Shiyuan nodded and promised: "Don't worry, Taotao is our sister, we will all take good care of her."
Fu Tiancheng's smile was particularly kind, "You are all good children."
Fu Shiyuan's ears turned red.
Oh, it’s so rare to be praised by my elders, I feel a little shy!
Everyone on the barrage was almost laughing to death.
[Master Fu, pull him up for me! ! ]
[That’s right, why are you shy! ]
[How can a young master of a wealthy family blush at a compliment? This is not right~~]
[It seems that Fourth Master Fu really considers Tao Tao's master as his elder. He is so respectful and even shy when he hears the compliments.]
[Good boy! ! (pat on shoulder)]
[Hahahaha, I want to pass this video on to all of Master Fu’s fans! ]
[You always call me hubby hubby, have you ever seen Fourth Young Master Fu look shy when you call him that? I have seen it, it is far ahead! ]
The kitchen was busy cooking dinner. Fu Shutao couldn't sit still and teased her fellow students with a smile, "Have you improved your sword skills recently? Show me a sword?"
Upon hearing this, nine junior brothers and sisters of different ages immediately stood up straight, each took out their own small wooden sword, and lined up in an orderly manner.
The live camera was pointed directly at them.
[So cute! ]
[The youngest one is only three or four years old. He can’t even hold the sword steadily, and he’s going to start practicing sword skills? ]
[The expression on Baozi’s face is so serious, so cute]
[Chubby face, let auntie kiss you! ]
[Look at the second one on the left. He just ate a cookie, and the crumbs are still sticking to his mouth, but he has already picked up the sword]
…
The audience didn’t have too many expectations for the kids’ skills, but were more touched and encouraged by their cuteness.
But they were ready, and at the command of the eldest child, all nine of them started to move at the same time. All of them drew their swords quickly and neatly, and Baozi's face was full of calmness and experience.
The barrage was filled with shock.
[Oh my god!] ! ! ]
[Is it so amazing? ? ? ]
[They are still children, why are they so strong? ! ! ]
[There are so many people, and they dance so neatly. No one is left behind. They dance in unison better than the boy band I follow! ]
[I didn’t believe Fu Shutao’s words that she had been practicing sword since she was a child, but now I do…]
[Awesome, so awesome]
[I seem to see the young men in the fairy tales]
[This seems to be the sword technique that Taotao practiced during morning exercises. Did Taotao practice sword like this when she was a child? ]
[It brought tears to my eyes]
[They have really steady hands! ]
[It turns out that Taotao is not strong, nor is she good at using a knife, but has learned it through daily practice]
…
Fu Shutao's face was full of satisfaction. After they finished practicing, he patted their heads and praised them one by one.
"I hope the angle of your sword will be better."
"Shengze's proficiency in sword moves is higher than before, that's great."
"Xunbai has learned how to control his strength. This is a big improvement. Eat an extra piece of meat tonight!"
“…”
Every child who was praised had a sincere smile on his face.
Sixth Senior Sister is the best sword practitioner in Luyang Temple, so it’s certainly worth being happy to be praised by her!
There was also a smile on the face of an auntie on the barrage.
[Taotao looks like a kindergarten teacher! ]
[Finally I know where Taotao developed the habit of chatting about cats, playing with dogs and children in variety shows! ]
[The junior students are grinning, so cute]
[Although they are all adopted, they really seem like a family! ]
[There are so many lovely children, I don’t know what their families are thinking, they actually abandoned them]
…
With the careful preparation of six people, dinner was quickly completed.
Whether it tastes good or not doesn’t matter, we were having a great time eating it.
Fu Tiancheng smiled and said, "Luyang Temple hasn't been so lively for a long time."
Fu Shiyuan asked curiously: "When was the last time it was so lively?"
Fu Shutao paused while picking up food with chopsticks.
Fu Tiancheng said, "When they were still in the mountains." He smiled and looked at Fu Shutao, "Don't always worry about Master, live your life well. I have to guard Luyang Temple, but for you, I hope you can grow up happily into a good person and live the life you want."
[Wow, so touching]
[This is what mom and dad would say]
[Master is also a father, and his love for Taotao is no less]
[Taotao is happy every day because her master hopes that she will be happy]
[Why do we have to guard Luyang Temple? Isn’t it nice to go down the mountain? It’s ok to build another one.]
Yao Lixuan was listening nearby, and out of professional illness, he asked curiously, "Master, why don't you go down the mountain? That would be good for the children, too."
Hang Yun immediately raised his head and frowned slightly.
Fu Tiancheng touched Hang Yun's head, and Hang Yun continued to eat obediently.
He smiled and said, "The 1,000-year-old heritage of Luyang Temple can be passed on even if we leave, but we have to protect the cemetery and ensure that there are people to worship and offer sacrifices to them every year." When he said this, he realized that there was still a live broadcast, so he stopped talking.
[Oh, I knew it.] ]
[Did Hang Yun want to say something just now?]
[Yes, all the other brothers and sisters have gone down the mountain, and only Hang Yun is going to inherit this Taoist temple. What if...he is the only one left on this mountain in the future? I can’t imagine how lonely he will be.]
[Because of this, a child’s wings were broken, and I don’t feel very good...]
[I don’t know what to say, I feel a little heavy]
Yao Lixuan felt a little heavy-hearted and apologetic when he asked this question. He felt that he might have started a bad topic trend in the live broadcast room.
"Some things have to be done by someone." Hang Yun said calmly, "This is the path I chose myself. I am very happy that Luyang Temple has my inheritance."
After he finished speaking, he smiled, his expression was not gloomy at all, but there was a sense of pride between his eyebrows, "What's more, if you have talent, you shouldn't waste it!"
Fu Shutao pouted and said unhappily, "I would like to inherit the legacy, but unfortunately I don't have the talent." Then she became happy again and boasted to Hang Yun, "Fortunately, I have money. My brothers and sisters are all rich!"
Hang Yun: “…”
My ancestor, someone is showing off her wealth here, please strike her with lightning!
“Boom boom—”
There was a sudden flash of lightning across the sky.
Fu Shutao heard the thunder and glared at Hang Yun silently.
[Hahahaha, childhood sweethearts who love and hate each other]
[Showing off your wealth can easily lead to being struck by lightning!] Taotao, hold steady]
[The thunder was too sudden]
[It won’t rain, will it? ]
I'm a little worried that they're trapped on the mountain by the heavy rain.
[The weather forecast shows no rain]
The guests were also startled by the thunder. They had to leave by tomorrow afternoon at the latest as they had other work arrangements. It would be troublesome if it rained.
Fortunately, the thunder only sounded that one time.
After chatting, everyone went to sleep.
In the Taoist temple at night, without turning on the lights, it was quite dark.
Fu Shutao returned to her room. The quilt still smelled of sunshine. She was not ready to sleep. She picked up the bag on the bedside and went out. She knocked on Fu Sui'an and Fu Shiyuan's doors and asked, "Third brother, fourth brother, are you asleep?"
There were many guest rooms in the Taoist temple, but not many beddings, so Fu Shiyuan and Fu Sui'an were tacitly assigned to sleep in the same room.
But...actually it's quite awkward for the two of them since they have never slept in the same bed!
Just when things were awkward, Fu Shutao came.
They both quickly got up and opened the door, "I'm not asleep yet, what's wrong?"
Fu Shutao held the things in his hand and said with a smile: "Can you two accompany me to the cemetery?"
"Okay." Fu Sui'an agreed immediately.
Fu Shiyuan followed him out, but he still thought he was sober and asked first: "What are you doing there so late?"
Fu Shutao smiled and explained, "I went to buy yellow paper this morning, but I was embarrassed to burn it in the cemetery during the day because of the camera, so I wanted you to accompany me in the evening."
Although Fu Sui'an and Fu Shiyuan didn't believe this, they didn't say much and just stayed with her obediently.
While burning the paper, I heard Taotao muttering silently in her heart:
[My dear ancestors, these are my two brothers. I introduce them to you. They are both very good people. I hope that the ancestors will protect them and they will never encounter any disaster in their lives! 】
Fu Sui'an, Fu Shiyuan:! ! !
It turns out Taotao is here to help us gain merit.
Both of them softened.
Although they did not believe in ghosts and gods, they always succumbed to their sister's love. They burned paper with full piety and made the same wish: "I hope Taotao will be free from illness and disaster in this life and live a happy life."
This wish was made to their ancestors and also to themselves.
Fu Shutao had no idea that they knew so much. After burning the paper, she went back to sleep happily.
Back in the familiar environment, she slept very comfortably that night and woke up very happy early in the morning.
[Hehe, it’s as comfortable as sleeping in the Fu family’s old house! 】
She stood up, put on her Taoist robe, and went to the yard to practice sword with everyone.
The live broadcast camera had been set up early.
Under the ginkgo tree, in the dim morning light, a group of young men were practicing sword skills.
[Wow! Looks so good! ]
[This picture is perfect for screenshots and wallpapers]
[Taotao is wearing the Taoist temple uniform, she looks great! ! ! ! ]
[Tao Tao and Young Taoist Priest Hang Yun look the most smooth, worthy of being brothers and sisters who have lived a few more years]
[Mom, I saw a fairy]
[Early in the morning, feeling refreshed]
[Such young children have already gotten up to practice sword fighting, and I am still lying in bed watching the live broadcast. Woohoo, I feel guilty, but I can’t get up.]
[Master said: Choose the lifestyle you like, don’t force it! ]
[Okay, I'm convinced, keep lying down]
After practicing sword, Fu Shutao felt relaxed all over and smiled with curved eyebrows.
When he raised his eyes, he saw someone suddenly appearing at the gate of the Taoist temple, and his eyes widened in shock.
This person? ? ? ?
How did he appear in Luyang Temple? ?
The man unexpectedly met her eyes, turned around and ran out.
Fu Shutao frowned and chased after him with sword in hand.
But when the man saw her chasing him, he ran faster.
A cold light flashed in Fu Shutao's eyes.
snort! Want to compete with me in speed?
She lunged forward.
