"It's okay." Yun Li's face turned red, perhaps because of tiredness or embarrassment. She loosened her grip on Jiaping's hand, causing Jiaping to turn pale in pain.
Yun Yan smiled and said, "Cousin, please go slower. Zhuo Qing is a scholar and cannot keep up with us."
It would be strange if Ye Heng would reply. The two of them walked on the stone steps as if they were walking on flat ground, and reached the top of the mountain in half an hour.
"Hey, that's Xianzhong Peak!"
Although the incense is strong, the mountain road is difficult to travel in winter. This is obvious to everyone. There is only one Taoist boy outside sweeping the snow from yesterday.
"My fellow Taoist." Yun Yan pinched his fingers like an orchid and saluted the Taoist boy who was sweeping the snow like a Bodhisattva.
Taoist boy: Could this person be sent by those bald donkeys to cause trouble?
"What are your instructions, benefactor?"
The Taoist boy clenched the broom in his hand and glanced at the weird Yun Yan and the black-faced evil star behind him.
"I have heard of the great name of Xianzhong Temple for a long time. I want to go in and burn incense and pray for peace."
"Please come in, benefactor."
"Please prepare some water, little Taoist friend. There is a young man behind us who needs it urgently. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Taoist friend, please don't be stingy."
Taoist boy: So it was sent by Baldy?
Yun Yan took Ye Heng into the hall. There were still two or three people burning incense and drawing lots.
"What do you two benefactors want?"
The Taoist priest who was selling talismans nearby saw the two of them stop and asked.
"Seeking a marriage."
Upon hearing this, the Taoist looked Ye Heng and Yun Yan up and down.
Ye Heng felt uncomfortable being stared at and glared at him coldly, which frightened the Taoist priest.
Yun Yan then smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, Taoist priest. My cousin has always had a cold temper."
The Taoist nodded and mentally formed a pairing of the cold-faced cousin and the sunny cousin.
"Do you have any blessings for peace and happiness here?" Yun Yan walked closer and looked at the yellow paper talismans on the table, as well as the ones in brocade bags, which were very exquisite.
“Here are a few.”
The Taoist priest began to introduce his business.
"Cousin, ask for one of these for my cousin's wife." Yun Yan picked up a red brocade bag and waved it towards Ye Heng, but he didn't say anything.
Cousin-in-law? When the Taoist heard this, he thought it was still a tragic love story.
Yun Yan curled his lips, approached the Taoist priest, and whispered, "Is there a talisman that, when worn, can make a person fall madly in love with the other person?"
Taoist priest:?
Although this is metaphysics, it doesn't involve casting spells! Your question is beyond the scope!
"You are joking, benefactor."
Yun Yan curled his lips and said, "Cousin, you pick one."
Ye Heng reached out and took a light green one: "How much?"
"Twenty cents."
"Twenty cents?" Yun Yan had never asked for this before. He just felt it was a great deal and asked hurriedly, "Do you have anything to bless my future?"
"This is it."
"Twenty cents too?"
"Exactly."
"Give me ten!"
Taoist priest:……
Yun Yan threw down a silver ingot and picked up ten talismans to bless his future.
I will give it to my third brother when the time comes, and he will definitely praise me.
Ye Heng counted out twenty coins from his purse and handed them to the Taoist priest.
"Cousin, the money I gave you is enough."
"I bought this for Qinghuan."
“…”Okay.
Then Yun Yan went to draw a fortune with great interest. Ye Heng stood aside with his hands behind his back, listening to Yun Yan arguing with the Taoist priest who was interpreting the fortune out of boredom.
After all, the Taoist priest has never heard of anyone calculating the destiny of a country in his life.
Only after Yun Yan finally convinced the Taoist priest who interpreted the fortune that the number three was more suitable for the State of Qi did Yun Li arrive at the temple gate and take the water from the little Taoist boy.
The two men left the temple and saw Yun Li resting on the stone steps at the entrance, and their expressions of gloating were evident.
