I have a Taoist temple that connects me to other worlds

The sky was faintly bright, and the mountain was filled with clouds and mist.

The sound of roosters crowing came from outside the house. Jiang Wen put on his Taoist robe and left the room. The cool morning breeze brushed against his face, disturbing his neatly combed long hair.

Looking around, the Taoist temple was still immersed in peace and tranquility.

Jiang Wen held the horsetail whisk in his hand and reached out to stroke the fake beard on his chin. Then, he stepped forward, passed through the huge bronze cauldron in the courtyard, and arrived in front of the main hall of the Taoist temple.

He lit three incense sticks and respectfully bowed to the Three Pure Ones in the main hall. Afterwards, he circled around the Taoist temple several times, and after finding nothing was amiss, he nodded in satisfaction.

"It's time to open the door. I wonder how many days I'll be staying this time," Jiang Wen thought to himself, opening the gate of the Taoist temple as the rising sun greeted him.

Instantly, the noise broke the silence. Outside the Taoist temple at this moment, a dense crowd of people had already gathered.

They wore coarse robes and had long hair. Their complexions were either sallow from hunger or dark and thin. Their eyes were filled with anticipation as they looked at Jiang Wen, and their faces showed kind smiles.

Everyone's hands were occupied, either carrying baskets filled with things or holding fresh poultry.

For example, inexplicable wet footprints would appear in the living room, the maids would always wet their pants while sleeping, and there would be knocks on the door in the middle of the night when no one was there.

As long as he stayed in the Taoist temple, he would automatically return to his original world after three days. But if he left the Taoist temple, this time would be extended by three days.

Seeing the birthdates of the person under the portrait, he deliberately pinched his fingers and calculated. Then he slowly said, "Your son's birthdate belongs to Yin, and he is prone to drowning. There is naturally a lingering ghost possessing him, unwilling to disperse."

For a time, the quiet Taoist temple seemed particularly lively. People came and went in an endless stream, seeking blessings from the gods, offering incense, praying, and fulfilling vows.

Jiang Wen was already used to this kind of situation.

Rumor had it that as long as one sincerely worshiped at Jingxu Temple, one could obtain an elixir from the Taoist master of the temple. That elixir could cure all diseases and even bring the dead back to life.

"I should get some more penicillin and other medicines over here in the future, which can at least cure many diseases. It can be regarded as doing a charitable thing," Jiang Wen thought to himself.

After brewing for a while in his mind, he maintained the demeanor of an accomplished person and said, "What is your matter?"

Jiang Wen simply pretended to be an accomplished person and collected incense money from the people.

The old man's spirits lifted when he heard this, and he bowed and said, "Immortal, save me."

These actions were quite skilled, as if everyone was a regular at the Taoist temple.

After tossing around like this a few times, his savings had exceeded eight figures.

He planned to live a stable life like this, occasionally collecting incense money to make a living.

Seeing the Taoist temple slowly quiet down, Jiang Wen closed his eyes for a nap. In a daze, he was awakened by the voice of an old man.

Just as he was about to say some words of refusal, the old man's words stopped him.

Seeing this, the old man became even more certain that the master of Jingxu Temple was an accomplished person. Thinking that his family matters could be resolved soon, the old man took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Wen.

"Enter the hall to worship, do not make loud noises, do not offend the ancestral master, and follow the other rules as before."

Jiang Wen straightened his body and looked the old man up and down. He could be sure that he had never seen this person before.

"Immortal, you see clearly, I indeed have something to ask," the old man said hurriedly, bowing to Jiang Wen. "My name is Li Shangming, and I live in Li Village. I have long admired the name of the Immortal, and I have come to visit you today."

It turned out that this old man's son had drowned. Ever since he was fished out and placed in a coffin at home, strange things had often happened in the house.

"Taoist priest, are you well?" The old man standing at the front bowed to Jiang Wen sincerely.

"I have encountered many strange things recently and cannot find relief. I have come here to ask the Immortal to bestow a method," the old man said dejectedly.

"Good," Jiang Wen waved his horsetail whisk and draped it over his arm, appearing like an accomplished person. After exchanging greetings with the old man, he looked at the crowd.

After speaking, Jiang Wen moved away from the gate of the Taoist temple.

After staying here for three days, Jiang Wen returned to his original world. Later, after traveling back and forth several times, he gradually grasped some rules.

Mount Jingxu is located in the Dagan Kingdom, which is a relatively remote place. When the people first saw the Taoist temple, they were extremely surprised and regarded Jiang Wen as a divine person.

In this way, Jiang Wen would take out a cold capsule from the alchemy furnace next to him and place it in the hands of the people who were seeking medicine.

The people who received the elixir were naturally overjoyed and treasured it as if it were a precious object.

The old man thought that his son was expressing dissatisfaction, so he burned even more sacrifices. Strange things did not decrease, but even intensified.

Who knew that one morning, when he got up and opened the door, he would find himself and the Taoist temple in another world. This was a world similar to ancient times, and the place where he was located was a place called Mount Jingxu.

After all, there were no large towns near Mount Jingxu, only scattered villages. There were always a lot of people coming to offer incense, and after they left, it would be much quieter.

He had a beard on his face, and the expression in his eyes was a little haggard.

Jiang Wen looked at these happy people and felt a little ashamed. After all, cold medicine was so cheap in modern society, and he had already collected a lot of incense money in this world.

"I know you are looking for me for something. Why don't you tell me?" Jiang Wen listened to the old man's words, stroked his beard, and made a knowing look.

It could be seen that he had experienced many troubles, so much so that he could not rest well all day long.

Of course, these were all rumors. The so-called elixir was just the medicine that Jiang Wen brought from the modern world. The people in the two worlds were the same, and the diseases they could get were similar. In this world without drug resistance, the effect of a modern pill was very obvious.

And after returning to the real world, he would need to wait at least another week before he could travel again.

Jiang Wen secretly glanced at it, estimating that these gold ingots were about 500 grams, and couldn't help but be amazed at the old man's wealth.

"Immortal, my young son cannot see…"

Then, people poured in like a tide, pushing and shoving into the Taoist temple.

This old man was wearing silk brocade clothes and a jade pendant around his waist. He was obviously an elder from an upper-class family.

Although there was only one Taoist priest, Jiang Wen, in the Taoist temple, everyone who came to offer incense followed the rules. They lined up to take incense sticks from the box, and then put the offerings they brought in a room next to them.

Jiang Wen looked at the portrait on the scroll, which depicted the person in a relatively abstract way. After all, it was ancient times, and it was obviously impossible to have Western-style realistic painting methods.

Then an old woman came to ask for medicine. Jiang Wen asked in detail about the patient's condition. After learning that the other party's grandson was deficient in vitamins, he handed over a bottle of vitamins and told the old woman to feed it to her grandson every day.

In the end, he spent a lot of money, but the strange things in the house were still not resolved. In desperation, he heard that there was an expert in Jingxu Temple, so he wanted to come and try his luck.

After graduating from university, Jiang Wen, who could not find a job, returned to his hometown and inherited the family's Taoist temple.

Regardless of whether they were men, women, old or young, they all chanted in their mouths: "Please give me the medicine, Immortal."

These strange things had tormented the old man enough, so that the Li family's mansion was uneasy every night.

Using this method, Jiang Wen successfully became a space-time scalper. He took modern industrial goods here to sell and then exchanged them for gold to exchange for money in the real world.

Speaking, he asked the servant to bring a wooden box. When he opened it, there were several round gold ingots inside.

After the old woman left with a thousand thanks, there were fewer villagers offering incense at the Taoist temple.

Jiang Wen took the scroll and slowly unfolded it. Then he listened to the old man slowly tell what he had encountered.

"You only need to remove his son's obsession, and you will have no worries."

"This is the deposit to honor the Immortal. After the mansion is stable, I will send another generous gift."

"…" Jiang Wen stiffly stroked his beard, almost pulling off his fake beard. Suppressing the emotions in his heart, he said slowly: "Well, it is your fate that you can come here. This poor Taoist will go with Master Li to take a look."

"Thank you, Immortal."
