Chapter 246

Chapter 240

Yin Meng remembers that the last message the ancestor sent was to return home and worship the ancestors, which was for her.

At least nominally, that was the case.

But she had grown up in Fengdu since childhood, burning paper and making offerings during every festival, and for so many years, the ancestor had never shown any sign of spirit, completely ignoring her.

So she was actually very clear that asking her to go back and worship the ancestors was secondary; the purpose was to have Brother Xiao Yuan accompany her back to Fengdu again.

This time, the ancestor directly transmitted "return to the sect and worship the master."

Yin Meng felt that she, the middleman, had been removed.

There was actually no loss in her heart, because even she, the bloodline successor, felt that Brother Xiao Yuan was more deserving of being called the successor of the Great Emperor of Fengdu.

Li Zhuiyuan picked up the wine bowl and said, "Many thanks to the Great Emperor for the recognition. I will set off as soon as possible."

Immediately after, the teenager first dipped his fingertips in the wine and sprinkled it on himself and around, then sprinkled half of the wine in front, poured the rest into the fire basin, and finally placed the wine bowl back on the offering table.

The etiquette and politeness were all sufficient.

Fengdu, he would go as soon as possible, but when exactly he would go needed further discussion.

When he was sitting on a boat leaving Fengdu County city, the teenager had stood at the stern of the boat, gazing at the gradually receding ghost city. At that time, he knew clearly in his heart that he would come back here again to explore the secrets beneath Fengdu.

At that time, the teenager was just a pure tourist, not involved in walking Jiang, and he had Yin Meng by his side. Even if the Great Emperor didn't care about the bloodline successor, he wouldn't be standing on the opposite side of the Great Emperor.

But this time was different. First, Li Zhuiyuan had reversed the Yin family's twelve methods back to the Twelve Edicts of Fengdu, continuing the lost art from the Eastern Han Dynasty by himself.

Second, the Great Emperor's tiger skin was really useful. Unconsciously, he had used it a bit too much.

Third, today, Heaven Dao had defined him as a knife. He was now naturally on the opposite side of those ancient existences.

"Return to the sect and worship the master?"

Taking it literally, Li Zhuiyuan didn't overanalyze it. In fact, these four words might not be important.

The teenager suspected that the Great Emperor wanted to turn this message into a clue for his next wave of "wave flowers," embedding it into the Jiang water so that the Jiang water would push him towards Fengdu.

In the previous wave, although Li Zhuiyuan hadn't seen the true body of the Bodhisattva, he had witnessed this level of means.

To be able to survive for so long under the gaze of Heaven Dao, and even force Heaven Dao to tacitly approve their existence, their understanding of Heaven Dao was undoubtedly extremely profound.

As long as they were willing to pay the corresponding price, Li Zhuiyuan believed that the Great Emperor had the ability to guide the direction of his next wave.

The teenager began to reflect, thinking, it seemed he had plucked too much.

If these four words truly became an early clue "wave flower" for the next wave, then he would naturally have to go, even if he didn't want to.

But...

Li Zhuiyuan raised his head and looked towards the air.

Would you be willing?

He was the knife that Heaven Dao was currently sharpening. He didn't believe Heaven Dao would be willing to send a knife that wasn't yet fully sharpened to another place to be prematurely broken without value.

Then, they would just see what the composition of his next wave would be.

Would the difficulty be lower, or would he go to Fengdu?

If it was the former, it would further explain that the cooperation reached with Heaven Dao at this stage indeed had huge developmental value.

If it was the latter, then he would have to re-examine the might of Heaven Dao. Since it couldn't protect the knife in its hand, then don't blame this knife for turning its head and stabbing towards itself.

"Brother Xiao Yuan?"

"Nothing. You continue practicing, continue making offerings."

"Okay!" Yin Meng nodded vigorously.

Tan Wenbin, sitting in the wheelchair, looked at Yin Meng and Lin Shuyou.

Before, Tan Wenbin felt he was a complete rebellious youth, but compared to Yin Meng and Ah You, he was simply a good baby.

These two, before meeting Brother Xiao Yuan, one claimed to be the successor of the official general, and the other called herself a descendant of the Yin family. Now, they were truly putting in effort to dig up their own family's wall.

Li Zhuiyuan instructed again, "When practicing, listen more to Ah You and Brother Binbin's suggestions."

Lin Shuyou heard this and puffed out his chest proudly.

Ha, he actually had a day when he could teach others!

Mainly, Li Zhuiyuan wasn't good at teaching people, so it was better to let his companions form a mutual learning group themselves.

He would be responsible for writing out the solution process, and then they would gather their thoughts and understand and digest it widely.

Li Zhuiyuan: "Then I'll go back first."

Tan Wenbin: "Don't worry, Brother Xiao Yuan, we will urge each other and make progress together."

After the teenager walked down the dam, the child's voice rang out in Lin Shuyou's heart:

"Tuck in your chest a little, look at others, and then look at you."

"Child, it's impossible for me to become Brother Bin."

"Can you have a little ambition, a little drive?"

"Child, precisely because I am me, I can join and stay in this team."

The child was silent.

It suddenly felt that this stupid oracle boy's words were very reasonable.

But the child changed its mind. That wasn't right. Before, it and Lin Shuyou were simply molded from the same template, so why was it getting worse and worse, and being increasingly excluded and suppressed?

Could it be because... the leader was different?

Lin Shuyou and Yin Meng cleaned up the dirt on the dam together.

Ah You: "Should we change the experiment area? Otherwise, it's very troublesome to clean up after each practice."

Yin Meng nodded: "I think so too."

Tan Wenbin: "Brother Xiao Yuan deliberately keeps Runsheng, who has been healed, sealed in the peach forest, and also deliberately lets you experiment here.

Although that one under the peach forest may not necessarily make a move, there is still a certain probability that in case of an accident, it will come to cover the bottom.

After all, the Peach Blossom Immortal is a good person and plays the zither well."

Lin Shuyou and Yin Meng exchanged glances, each seeing a raw recruit in the other's eyes.

After cleaning up, under Lin Shuyou's guidance, Yin Meng continued to practice the Yin-Yang steps.

Although Ah You hadn't learned it before, he had the foundation of the three steps of praise, and his learning and comprehension speed were much faster than Yin Meng's.

"Whoa..."

Yin Meng practiced until she was dripping with sweat. Not only were her legs starting to ache, but her fingers were also cramping from continuously tying hand seals.

Tan Wenbin: "Okay, rest a bit. This practice is muscle memory. You can't just practice blindly; you need to leave enough time to think and sense."

Yin Meng: "Zhuangzhuang, you are really good."

Tan Wenbin: "Heh, during the college entrance examination sprint, Brother Xiao Yuan taught me like this."

Yin Meng: "However, after this secret technique is practiced, when I go out later, besides carrying a poison jar in my bag, do I also need to bring meat?"

Lin Shuyou: "The meat you bring out won't stay fresh."

Ah You's eyes bulged, and he immediately said, "You can use corpses."

Yin Meng: "That's what I meant. If I also use corpses as raw material to urge this secret technique, won't I be competing with Brother Xiao Yuan for corpses? Brother Xiao Yuan's puppet technique also needs corpses as raw material."

Tan Wenbin: "Broaden your thinking. Your Gu insects can fly. When the time comes, they can drill into the enemy's body and then perform the sacrifice, directly offering the enemy to your ancestor..."

At this point, Tan Wenbin himself was stunned.

He suddenly realized that this seemed to be the most terrifying aspect of Mengmeng's secret technique, and also the real reason Brother Xiao Yuan tailored this secret technique for Mengmeng.

"No wonder, the Great Emperor directly transmitted the message asking Brother Xiao Yuan to go back and worship the master..."

...

After returning to his room, Li Zhuiyuan first made a slight modification to the "Code of Conduct for Walking Jiang."

Putting down his pen, Ah Li was behind him, holding a small plane and carefully shaving the card positions.

She had already shaved six pieces, only taking the layer of purple paint material skin on the surface of the card positions.

This layer of skin could be used to make talisman paper, thereby amplifying the power of the drawn talismans.

In fact, the talisman papers drawn by Ah Li were already a great help to the team, but she was still striving for improvement.

Li Zhuiyuan walked over and asked curiously, "Ah Li, who taught you this?"

It wasn't very likely that the adults taught her. Qin Shu's path was body refining, Liu Yi was good at medical techniques and poison techniques, and as for Old Lady Liu, although Li Zhuiyuan had never seen her make a move, from the sword she once took out, it seemed that in her youth, she was probably fiercer than Qin Shu's route.

Ah Li reached out and pointed towards Li Zhuiyuan's desk.

"You looked at the book yourself?"

The girl nodded.

When the teenager wasn't at home, she wasn't always in a daze. Or rather, precisely because the teenager appeared in her life, she could no longer be like before, sitting alone all day.

When she felt bored, she would actively find something to do, and she would also learn from the teenager when he was at home, sitting alone on the rattan chair on the balcony and reading books.

Wei Zhengdao's book recorded many different styles of talisman paper at different stages. Writing a book on Buddha skin paper had a characteristic: it could better integrate divine charm.

Others were lucky to get a few pieces of Buddha skin paper to imprint down their sect's unique divine charm. Only Wei Zhengdao could write an "encyclopedia" using Buddha skin paper.

The full text contained a large amount of pure text descriptions, and the introduction to talisman paper was only a small part of it. Ah Li was copying and learning from that.

"Ah Li, those books, just look at the technical stuff. Don't delve into their deeper meanings."

Li Zhuiyuan had said the same words to his companions, but he didn't think his companions could understand the hidden private goods in Wei Zhengdao's books. But Ah Li was different.

If Ah Li hadn't suffered from those curses since childhood, and if she could have grown up normally, that Miss Yu family wouldn't even be worthy of carrying her shoes.

Ah Li shook her head, then nodded.

She was only interested in the talisman paper, tools, and manuals, not the introduction to the dead and various stories recorded inside.

Because the things in her dreams were richer and more intuitive than those in books.

"I'll come and help you make them." Li Zhuiyuan picked up the plane.

Ah Li pressed down on the teenager's hand, stood up, stacked the shed card positions, and hugged them downstairs.

Liu Yumei was playing cards on the dam with Liu Jinxia and others. She watched her granddaughter walk out so openly hugging the card positions.

When Liu Jinxia grabbed a card, she glanced at it, then her eyes widened, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

She made a living from this, so of course, she could clearly see what the girl was hugging in her arms.

Liu Jinxia smiled at Liu Yumei and said, "Your granddaughter is still sensible, knowing to help the family split firewood. Unlike my Cui Cui, she doesn't do any work at home and is lazy to death."

After Ah Li entered the east room, she quickly came out with empty hands and went upstairs.

Liu Yumei waited until it was her turn after playing cards before leaving the table and entering the east room to take a look.

On the offering table, there were six new "nameless ones."

A smile appeared on Liu Yumei's face.

Liu Yi walked in at this time and saw this scene. She said somewhat doubtfully, "Are you laughing from anger?"

That shouldn't be the case. It wasn't the first or second day that Ah Li had used card positions as manual materials. The lifespan of the card positions here didn't exceed one season at most.

Liu Yumei: "Check what material the paint skin of those six card positions is. Order a batch of this material immediately. Hurry up and have that side send it over. You personally go and urge them."

Liu Yi: "Understood."

Liu Yumei: "Our Ah Li will straightforwardly ask me for what she wants."

This was the reason for Liu Yumei's happiness. Although she didn't speak, her granddaughter putting these six card positions back was equivalent to asking for them openly. For Ah Li, this was considered a rare straightforwardness.

For Liu Yumei, she now had two children under her knees, but her biggest pain was that although she sat on her own mountains of gold and silver, she had no way to give them out.

One never opened her mouth to ask, and the other couldn't be given while walking Jiang.

Sometimes, she truly envied Li Sanjiang, who could very proudly take money from his pocket and give it to Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan would also accept it and even actively ask for some, just to make the old man happy.

But Liu Yumei couldn't do the same thing. She couldn't possibly learn from Li Sanjiang and carry a few hundred yuan in her pocket to give to the child, could she?

Li Sanjiang didn't know the truth and was happy in it. If she knew and still did so, it would seem a bit foolish.

Liu Yi: "I can see it now. It's my fault that Ah Li and I ask you for things less, making you less happy. My sin, my sin."

Liu Yumei: "The ancestral secret places of the Qin and Liu families, if you and Ah Li want them, each take one. I won't say anything."

Liu Yi sighed: "Alas, opening your mouth and directly giving the two biggest things, this clearly means you don't want to give them."

Liu Yumei was so angry that she laughed. She reached out and pinched Liu Yi's face, pulling it outwards like she did when she was a child.

Liu Yi deliberately shouted, "Oh no, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts. Ah Li has thick skin and flesh, go and pull his."

Liu Yumei: "Ah Ting, you have wrinkles on your face."

Liu Yi: "..."

Liu Yumei: "I'm old, and you all are. You are no longer children."

Liu Yi: "You can't be like this. I'm racking my brains here to make you happy, but you're stabbing a knife into my heart. Where do I have wrinkles?"

Saying that, Liu Yi lightly supported herself with both hands and turned a circle on the spot.

She was originally extremely beautiful.

Only at Li Sanjiang's house did she deliberately wear cook's clothes and deliberately suppress herself.

Initially, at university, Liu Yi had gone to the dormitory downstairs to call Li Zhuiyuan. That day, Liu Yi had changed into casual clothes and looked more temperament and charming than the female teachers in the university.

Liu Yumei: "Perhaps that Yin family girl has seen a lot, so she feels you are not young. Who knew that girl is now exactly at the age of tender water."

Liu Yi: "Alright, I was redundant. I should have known not to give her beauty care initially."

Outside, Liu Jinxia, who was playing cards, deliberately raised her voice: "You just shouldn't have played the six of ten thousand. It just landed in my hand, ha!"

Liu Yumei knew this was a notification that the next round was starting, so she walked out and sat down.

In front of the four old ladies, there were piles of small money. The pile in front of Liu Jinxia was the thickest.

She was good at calculating cards and had good card skills, basically winning every game.

Liu Yumei often lost the most, mainly because her card playing mentality was almost the same as Xiao Yuan's playing chess with Ah Li. It was even more exaggerated. She sometimes happily sent favors, deliberately sending cards to people to help them win big cards, and then while cracking melon seeds, she watched their excited expressions.

The other two old ladies at the card table were considered regular players.

One was called Granny Hua. Her old companion had passed away early, and her son had become a martyr before getting married. Only she was left at home. She had government subsidies and condolences, so she didn't need to farm and didn't worry about life. She just had a strange temperament and often quarreled with villagers before. Her shouting skills were first-class.

After being called to play cards here, her personality had become gentle. She never got angry and often brought over the condolence items given to her and shared them with Liu Yumei.

Another one's surname was Wang. She was a bit younger. Li Sanjiang called her "Lian Hou." Her son had a work accident on the construction site and was paralyzed in bed. She actively advised her daughter-in-law to remarry and kept her two grandchildren herself.

Previously, she and her old companion relied on farming to maintain the family's livelihood. Her son's medical expenses and the tuition fees for her two grandchildren made life not just tight; this was a real declining rural household.

Now, the biggest income for her family... was the money she won from Liu Yumei. This income might be much richer and more stable than farming.

No one was a fool. Some people were bad at playing cards and easily lost money, but it was rare to always lose money and still always play.

Therefore, every time a card game was started, Wang Lian was the earliest to arrive, often bringing vegetables grown at home or seasonal cakes and zongzi. Then she would move the table and set up chairs. When the card game dispersed, even if Liu Yi was just standing by, she would still snatch the cleaning work.

Liu Jinxia's reputation in the village wasn't good before. She needed to leave meals to find card partners. But Liu Yumei was obviously more generous and natural than her.

She didn't know before, but later she understood that there really was such a type of person in this world. If you bowed low and flattered her, not only would she not feel wronged, but she would even feel very happy and enjoy it.

Wang Lian: "That nephew of mine sent someone to bring a message, saying he wants to bring a child over to adopt."

Granny Hua: "Which nephew?"

Wang Lian: "Just my husband's eldest brother's son."

Liu Jinxia: "Oh, Ding family's Big Hou. Didn't your two families not contact each other early on?"

Wang Lian's husband's parents had passed away early years ago. His eldest brother followed a boat and went away, leaving Wang Lian's husband to bring up a sister. They were considered to have grown up eating from a hundred families.

Later, the younger brother and sister both grew up, and their lives gradually got on the right track. It was a pity that the sister got sick and passed away just one year after getting married.

The two brothers were separated but not completely out of touch, although they didn't contact each other much.

They only knew that Ding family's Big Hou was doing very well now, having his own boat, and living a prosperous life.

Wang Lian: "He said he feels our family is difficult and plans to help us by taking a child away."

Granny Hua: "It's not possible for him to have children where he is, is it?"

Liu Jinxia: "If he felt your family was difficult, what was he doing earlier when your family had an accident?"

Granny Hua: "No, Lian Hou, you aren't truly planning to send the child away, are you?"

Liu Yumei took a sip of tea and asked, "Can't you raise them now?"

Wang Lian quickly said, "We can, we can. I just feel that side has better conditions, and the child can also..."

Liu Yumei: "Do the children want to go?"

Wang Lian: "The two children overheard me and their grandpa talking, and that night they cried and shouted that they didn't want to be sent away."

Liu Yumei: "Then don't send them."

Liu Jinxia: "Exactly. Life is getting better every day, and you won't starve to death. Isn't it good for the family to be together? Moreover, you have that one paralyzed in bed. If you send a child away, when you two old people are gone, will you leave a paralyzed person for one child to take care of?"

Liu Jinxia's words were a bit unpleasant, but the rough words contained profound meaning.

Wang Lian nodded vigorously: "Then I won't send them, won't send them."

Granny Hua: "If you're really planning to send someone, why not just send them to me? They can take my son's surname and still stay in the village."

Liu Jinxia asked curiously, "What, does this policy of adopting children also qualify for benefits?"

Granny Hua laughed: "I don't know. At most, I'll just cry and make a fuss."

Liu Jinxia: "That's right."

At this time, Li Sanjiang came back with a cigarette in his mouth and his hands behind his back.

Granny Hua rolled her eyes and said, "Oh dear, speaking of a good life, who can compare to him? The same surname, dad, mom, grandpa, grandma, all are present, and all can bring them home.

Just bring them back, just bring them back. Bring them home for one year, and you'll get a top scholar."

Li Sanjiang sniffed and shouted towards the kitchen: "Ting Hou!"

Liu Yi: "What?"

Li Sanjiang: "Is the vinegar jar at home leaking? Why is there a sour smell?"

Granny Hua's lips trembled. She cursed silently for a few sentences, then also laughed.

After the game ended, everyone else left, and Wang Lian stayed to clean up as usual.

Liu Yumei sat by the side, spreading out her clothing design drawings.

After cleaning up, Wang Lian leaned towards Liu Yumei and whispered, "Sister Liu family..."

Liu Yumei didn't answer, just held her brush and drew the design.

Wang Lian: "Sister Liu family, do you think the children, when they grow up, will blame us for not sending them to a good family to enjoy blessings initially?"

Liu Yumei: "This is indeed your fault."

Wang Lian: "Um, this is what I and my husband worry about the most."

Liu Yumei: "It's your fault for not teaching the children well and giving birth to such thoughts."

Wang Lian was stunned.

Liu Yumei: "As long as the family is together, in this world, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome."

"I understand, Sister Liu family."

Not long after the game ended on this side, Liu Yi's voice rang out:

"Time for dinner!"

In the room on the second floor, Li Zhuiyuan held the new version of the evil-breaking talisman that Ah Li had just drawn.

Although there was still material, the new talisman required more skill, and the difficulty and consumption of drawing it were also greater. Therefore, even Ah Li couldn't draw as many talismans as before in one go.

However, although talismans were precious, experiments still needed to be done. It wasn't that they were afraid the talisman wouldn't have an effect, but sometimes if the effect was too strong and couldn't be controlled, there would also be problems.

Since Liu Yi had already shouted for dinner, Li Zhuiyuan was too lazy to find another experiment object. He simply flipped open the wordless book.

He hadn't squeezed "Evil Book" today. Moreover, when he flipped to the second page, he found that the monkey was gone, and the entire page was blank.

On the first page of "Evil Book," sitting on the prison bed, was an embarrassed woman. To be precise, it should be an embarrassed girl.

Although her hair was scattered, the strands of hair falling on her face were just right, giving her a look of vulnerability that made people pity her.

Li Zhuiyuan knew that this was "Evil Book" deliberately catering to his preferences.

But it had forgotten, or rather subconsciously ignored, that he played with Ah Li because he was also a child, the same age as Ah Li.

Li Zhuiyuan directly pasted the new version of the evil-breaking talisman on the first page.

"Crack..."

A crisp sound was transmitted. The talisman paper shattered and floated down.

The wordless book, after all, could be used as a weapon to fight zombies. It was very hard and remained intact.

But the "girl" inside the first page was blown to dust.

The effect was very good.

Li Zhuiyuan closed the book, took Ah Li's hand, and went downstairs to eat dinner.

For the next few days, Li Zhuiyuan accompanied Ah Li in making talismans. Although he couldn't draw them himself, he could understand and research them. After the two joined hands, Ah Li's speed in drawing talismans gradually increased.

The new batch of card positions also arrived just in time. The raw material problem was solved. Next, they would draw a large quantity and change the equipment of the team's talisman paper.

Every day, Li Zhuiyuan would go to Big Beard's house to check on Runsheng's degree of wildness and Yin Meng's learning progress.

Runsheng's wildness was almost fully inspired. He was now truly like a wild beast, constantly hammering the formation. This forced Yin Meng and the others to shorten their patrols to once every two hours, afraid that one negligence would let Runsheng, in this crazy state, run out.

Yin Meng's progress was very obvious. She could now use fresh meat to perform sacrifices, hatching and controlling a group of insects.

Next, they had to find a way to extend the lifespan of these insects and how to quench poison on these insects to add to the power of this secret technique.

Besides, there was still one more thing. Yin Meng followed what Brother Xiao Yuan said. Every time she finished practicing, she would place an offering table and make a sacrifice to her ancestor and apologize.

Therefore, in these days, the Great Emperor received countless "sorrys" every day, not knowing how many times.

And after the first sacrifice each day, those four words would float up in the wine bowl again — return to the sect and worship the master.

This made Li Zhuiyuan no longer doubt and could almost affirm that the Great Emperor was interfering with his walking Jiang!

The Great Emperor wanted to push him, as he was now, directly towards him.

According to the new changes in the previous wave, the clue for the next wave should also be given very early. Calculating, it was also time.

Next, they would just see whether the next clue that appeared clearly pointed to Fengdu or to other areas.

If it pointed to Fengdu, it meant the Great Emperor succeeded. If not, it meant Heaven Dao strongly rejected the interference from the Great Emperor.

As a party involved, Li Zhuiyuan was truly quite looking forward to the result of opening this set after buying it.

On the way home, Li Zhuiyuan saw Great-grandfather walking back as well. Great-grandfather was talking to himself: "Recently, why did Ting Hou buy so much meat? There's no reason to finish it..."

"Great-grandfather."

"Xiao Yuan Hou."

"Great-grandfather, what were you just saying?"

"Nothing, I was thinking about when Zhuangzhuang and Runsheng Hou can come back."

All purchases at home were the responsibility of Liu Yi. Li Sanjiang only settled accounts with her at the end of the month.

It was almost the end of the month. If the account was higher when settling... Li Sanjiang would still acknowledge it and give it.

If Ting Hou wanted to be greedy, let her be greedy. It wasn't about the monk's face but the Buddha's face. In Li Sanjiang's view, they would still be a family anyway.

"Great-grandfather, Runsheng Ge called back this morning. He said he misses you, and also misses Mountain Grandfather. I think, let's invite Mountain Grandfather home for a meal tomorrow."

Although it wasn't a year or a festival and there was no work, inviting Mountain Cannon over was quite strange. But since it was his Xiao Yuan Hou who mentioned it, Li Sanjiang directly nodded and said:

"Alright, you go call his village now and tell him to leave his stomach empty tonight."

"Okay, Great-grandfather."

Tomorrow, Li Zhuiyuan planned to start helping Runsheng restore consciousness. Mountain Grandfather had a special status in Runsheng's heart. They had to invite him over to act as a backup.

There was no need to worry about whether Mountain Grandfather would find out or not, because every time Mountain Grandfather came, he would drink himself to death with Great-grandfather, becoming unconscious.

Night fell.

Li Zhuiyuan sent Ah Li back to the east room and then reviewed the plan to help Runsheng restore consciousness tomorrow at his desk.

After confirming there were no mistakes, Li Zhuiyuan stretched. The light of the desk lamp suddenly flickered a few times, bright and dark.

It wasn't a problem with the desk lamp or the wiring. In fact, the desk lamp's brightness had always been normal with no change. The change now was Li Zhuiyuan's own feeling.

A feeling in his heart?

After digesting the power inside the lotus petal and lotus platform with his body, could he actually be so sensitive?

First, he carefully recalled the previous feeling, and then Li Zhuiyuan began to think:

What would happen tonight?

...

"Brother Bin, when the time comes, I'll go check on Runsheng's formation first."

"Okay, you go."

Two-hour frequency was too high. Lin Shuyou and Yin Meng couldn't take turns in shifts, so one simply took the first half of the night and the other the second half.

Tan Wenbin wasn't sleepy, so he simply let Lin Shuyou push him out to enjoy the moonlight.

Facts proved that when a person was cold to a certain degree, the moonlight could also bring warmth.

Lin Shuyou ran back. Tan Wenbin shrank his body and sat on the wheelchair by the village road.

At this time, two people walked over from a distance. One was a middle-aged bald man, whose scalp was oily under the moonlight.

The other person wore a black long robe, kept a goatee, had a neat hairstyle, and carried a sword vertically behind his left hand. His body was straight, and he should be a Taoist.

"Taoist priest, I'm truly sorry to trouble you to make a trip personally. It's all that family's fault. They're so poor they can barely eat, yet they're still unwilling to give the child to me so I can take the child to have a good life."

"No harm, this poor Taoist can help you bring that child away."

"Taoist priest, not one, but two. One boy and one girl. The boy will stay at home to inherit the incense fire, and the girl will be sent to your Taoist temple to cultivate with you."

"Two?"

"This is for the children's own good. In this family, even going to school is a problem. Life is not good, and they can't get a good education. What will they do in the future? We are saving them and doing good deeds."

"Alright, alright. Who knew your father once did a favor for this poor Taoist. Since this poor Taoist once promised something, this poor Taoist will naturally help you do it. Two it is, take both away."

"At this point, their family should all be asleep."

"It doesn't matter if they're asleep or not. Even if this poor Taoist stands grandly in front of them, they won't see this poor Taoist's existence."

When saying this, the Taoist priest just walked past Tan Wenbin by the roadside, completely failing to notice that there was a wheelchair stopped there, and someone sitting in the wheelchair.

Listening to the accents of these two people, they were clearly from the Sichuan and Chongqing area.

"This climate here, this poor Taoist truly doesn't like it."

"That's right, how can it compare to Qingcheng Mountain?"
