Fairy Tea Temple Notes
Chapter 2: Soul Night
In the morning, the old uncle, Ke Shicheng, and He Qing sat in the main hall.Listening to He Qing's detailed narration and Ke Shicheng's brief supplement, the old uncle looked calm. He held up his long sword to look at it, and said quietly: "It's really Bufu's sword." After a long time, he put down the sword, looked up at Ke Shicheng, and asked him: "Shicheng, are you sure you got rid of it?" Ke Shicheng nodded, pointed at He Qing and said, "He's fine."
Ke Shicheng's voice was cold, sweet, and male, but he didn't seem to like to talk much.
"Old uncle, is that snake demon specially here to kill me?"
After what happened last night and listening to their conversation, He Qing had to think about it.
According to her mother, when He Qing was two years old, she took He Qing out of He's house, and He Qing didn't come back until 18 years later.As soon as he came back, he was attacked by such a powerful monster and almost lost his life.
The old uncle sighed: "Slaying monsters will not stop, and it will affect the descendants."
Facing He Qing's questioning eyes, the old uncle told a story about the He family's past, which was closely related to He Qing.
When He Bufu was young, he was also a master. He prayed for people to pray for food, and exorcising ghosts and subduing demons. He was very famous in the local area, far above Ke Shicheng's master Lin Shigong.
Once in order to save someone's life, He Bufu decided to kill a snake demon.This is not an ordinary snake demon, it has hundreds of years of Taoism, and it was originally a family's town house snake, but it is a pity that after becoming a demon, it took the family's life.Seeing that it was causing endless harm, He Bufu acted on behalf of the heavens, killed the snake demon, and destroyed the snake eggs in its lair. As mentioned above, this is not an ordinary demon, it is not dead, and threatened to retaliate by making He Bufu have no descendants.
The snake demon kept trying to retaliate, but He Bufu blocked them all, but his two sons were in danger of misfortune.In order to protect the common people and not want to endanger his family, He Bufu took off his Taoist uniform, put away his magic weapon, and withdrew from the world.
Later, He Qing was born.
There are formations around the He family, and it is said that the snake demon can't hurt He Qing, but when He Qing was two years old, while He Bufu was out, the snake demon deceived He Qing's mother A Yi, tricked him into opening the side door, and broke a formation.If He Bufu hadn't felt bad on the way and rushed home to rescue him, He Qing would have died at that time.
He Qing was startled when he heard this. Last night he dreamed that he was going to open the door for a certain woman when his mother was holding the baby. Was it the scene of that year?
And maybe the snake demon followed his dream and entered his room last night.
Looking back now, I feel deeply afraid.
The old uncle continued to tell: He Qing's mother took He Qing away after being frightened.Many years later, He Bufu was dying and realized that as long as He Qing came back to attend the funeral, the snake demon would definitely attack He Qing.Besides, when he was about to die, it was time to settle the grievances between himself and the snake demon, so He Bufu decided to get rid of the demon on the first seven nights, when he returned to his soul.He Bufu told his old uncle not to call Ah Qing to Baishui Town until the first seven days, and at the same time ask Ke Shicheng to protect He Qing.
That's how the whole thing came about.
"But why did the Wind Lion God break?"
The snake demon wanted to harm him, He Qing understood it, when he stepped into the gate yesterday, Lord Fengshi almost smashed his head to death, wouldn't Lord Fengshi also seek revenge from him?
"Xiao Qing, Lord Wind Lion helped you block the robbery yesterday."
The old uncle guessed what was going on, although he couldn't see the snake demon, Ke Shicheng nodded.
"Did that snake demon want to harm me yesterday afternoon?"
He Qing felt scared again. It was probably because he had "spent his salary and hidden his courage" in 18 years.
After asking about Lord Wind Lion, He Qing still felt that something was wrong.
"My cousin and I are both descendants of grandpa. Is my cousin... all right?"
She is also a descendant of her grandfather, her cousin went to elementary school in Baishui Town, and she also attended her grandfather's funeral. She should have never encountered any revenge from the snake demon.
This question stopped the old uncle. He took off his reading glasses and looked embarrassed.
"It's not a woman."
Ke Shicheng raised his sword eyebrows, and it was rare for him to help He Qing clear up his confusion.
"..."
He Qing slandered: Women are also heirs to the lineage, and they deserve to be beaten to death if they favor men over women.
After all, it was an antique snake hundreds of years old, so that's all it had to know.
"Old uncle, Xiao Qing, why are you all here, what happened?"
When He Yan came, she again ignored Ke Shicheng who was sitting in a corner and was dressed in black.He Yan looked puzzled, she just woke up, she slept very comfortably last night, and slept until dawn.
"Sister, did you hear any noise outside last night?"
"No, what's wrong?"
He Yan's eyes fell on the long sword resting on the tall table, she tilted her head, thinking about it, she suddenly said: "Hey, this is grandfather's sword."
He Yan recognized the beautiful engravings on the sword grid, as well as the intricate diamond patterns on the sword body.When He Yan was very young, she saw this sword owned by her grandfather.However, he didn't know where the grandfather's magic weapon was kept, how did he find it?
Ke Shicheng got up and bid farewell to his old uncle. He bowed his hands and left.
He Yan looked suspiciously at his slender figure leaving, and said troubledly, "Didn't he go home last night? He came back so early."
Ke Shicheng stood up, and He Qing's eyes moved to him. He Qing noticed that there was a band-aid on his right index finger. He Qing immediately remembered the scene of him biting his finger and writing a talisman on himself last night.
I was so scared last night that I was in a trance, and I haven't thanked him yet.
When He Qing came back to his senses, Ke Shicheng's figure had disappeared at the door.
"Xiaoqing, what happened last night?"
He Yan sat next to He Qing, she intuitively felt that something strange happened last night with Ke Shicheng around.
"Sister, have you heard about Grandpa killing the snake demon?"
"That's just the villagers talking nonsense, what kind of snake demon, I've never seen it before."
He Qing was very envious, but also very happy that the snake demon came towards him and did not hurt his carefree sister.
In the morning, He Yan took He Qing to He's cemetery. The cemetery was built at the foot of Fengyi Mountain. It looked like a temple and looked magnificent.
He Qing lit incense in front of the alcove where his grandfather's ashes were stored, bowed down, and thanked his grandfather for his rescue last night.He bowed three times, put three sticks of incense in the incense burner, and looked back to see He Yan clasped her hands together with tears in her eyes.
According to He Yan, her grandfather loved her very much when he was alive, and he was a very loving person.
He Yan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and presented a bouquet of flowers. She didn't stay long, and left He's Cemetery with He Qing.
The siblings stood on the hillside, looked away from He's Cemetery, and looked up at the high mountains and clouds.
"Is there a temple on the mountain?"
He Qing saw some buildings that looked like temples and halls.
"That's Baishui Temple, which is very famous. Xiaoqing, there is also a Taoist temple over there."
He Yan pointed to the depths of the Nanfeng forest. He Qing looked carefully and recognized a pavilion-like building.
"That's the Immortal Tea Temple, Master Lin's temple."
He Qing's eyes lit up when he heard Master Lin's view of the palace.
"Is Daoist Ke there too?"
"It's there too. I heard that Master Lin is going to another place, and he is the only one in the temple."
He Yan had already heard about what happened last night from He Qing and her old uncle. She didn't believe in supernatural beings, or ghosts in the world, but she was still very moved when she heard He Qing say that grandpa came back in the night of returning to the soul.Besides, based on her "bad relationship" with Ke Shicheng, a first-year classmate, she believed that something that science could not explain happened did happen last night.
He Yan lives in City X, so she can't stay long, she will go back soon.He Yan asked He Qing if she wanted to take her car and take him to Q City, but He Qing said no, and he would go back later.
It's rare to come to his father's hometown, so he wants to take a look around more often.
"Xiao Qing, I don't worry about you living in the old house by yourself. I will tell Archie that you live in the old uncle's house."
Archie is the grandson of the old uncle, and he also came to help with the ritual yesterday. He is about the same age as He Qing.
After all, He Yan still cared about what happened last night, and was afraid that He Qing would encounter another supernatural event.
"no, I'm fine."
He Qing didn't want to trouble others, besides, he was always independent.
Seeing He Qing's insistence, He Yan didn't persuade him, but just told He Qing to call her and tell her if anything strange happened again.
Watching He Yan drive away, He Qing thought that although she had only known her cousin for three days, she already regarded her as her own sister in her heart.
He Qing has no siblings, he is an only child.
The incense on the north peak of Fengyi Mountain is prosperous, and it is said that there are many pilgrims coming from afar.On the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, vehicles come and go on the mountain road, carrying faithful men and women.The South Peak is much more lonely, and the South Peak is not as high as the North Peak, and it is a mountain shorter, and the Xiancha Temple is located on the South Peak.
He Qing stepped on the stone steps and climbed layer by layer. His physical strength is not good, and climbing the mountain is a bit difficult.
The stone steps are old, loose and crooked, covered with weeds, and the road is very steep, so you have to climb carefully.He Qing thought, if he had known this earlier, he might not have wanted to come up.
Drenched in sweat from climbing, He Qing leaned against a tree to rest, wiped his sweat and looked up. The pavilion he saw earlier turned out to be a single one, and there were no other buildings around.The pavilion is not far above, looking dilapidated and in disrepair.
He Qing continued to move forward, passed by the pavilion, and walked around. He found a palace-like building hidden behind the woods, and there was a path leading there.He Qing walked forward, no, he was already standing in front of the archway of the Taoist temple, and there were four characters written on the archway: Ancient Temple of Immortal Tea.
This is a small and shabby Taoist temple, not very old, it may have been built in the past 30 or [-] years.This kind of Taoist temple is called ancient temple, and even the villagers don't believe it. No wonder the temple is lonely and no one comes.
The gate was open, He Qing came in, and saw a thick old tree head-on, with stone tables and benches under the old tree.Ke Shicheng was sitting in front of the stone table, looking straight at He Qing.Ke Shicheng placed a takeaway lunch box in front of him, with chopsticks in his hand, the box lunch was just opened, and it was still steaming.
He Qing was so busy climbing the mountain that he didn't pay attention to the passage of time. Before he knew it, it was already lunch time.
"What's the matter with me?"
Ke Shicheng looked at He Qing's delicate face flushed with heat, and spoke calmly.
He Qing thought, how did he know that he was looking for him?He also wanted his master to go out and let him watch, so he came to the temple to look for him.
"I'm here to thank Daoist Ke, thank you for saving me last night."
He Qing saluted with a sincere attitude. When he bowed, sweat dripped down his bangs.
"you are welcome."
Ke Shicheng looked indifferent, he put some rice grains out of the lunch box on the stone table, his action caught He Qing's attention, He Qing saw a chicken on the stone table?It has tawny down, and its feet seem to be longer than a chicken, so it may not be a chicken, but a young bird of some kind.
"What kind of bird is it?"
"Little Bird" pecked at the rice grains and seemed very well-behaved. It didn't seem to be afraid of people. Even when He Qing came up, it was not disturbed. It was still concentrating on eating, pecking clean the rice grains on the table.
Ke Shicheng stared at him with dark eyes, and looked at him with what He Qing thought was fierce—actually it was a surprised expression, and He Qing didn't feel that he said something wrong.
"Small gray."
Ke Shicheng only spit out two words, which seems to be the name of "Little Bird"?
He Qing thought the name was so casual, and he was also colorblind.Of course He Qing didn't say anything else, he watched Ke Shicheng pick out a sprout and put it on the chopsticks to feed Xiao Hui.Xiao Hui diligently pecked at the food, like a long worm, picked up the sprouts, stepped on them with its claws, pulled the food with its sharp beak, and quickly ate it.
No, takeaway box lunch?He Qing finally realized how could there be food delivery on such a difficult mountain road.
"Ke Daochang, will the takeaways in the town also be delivered to the mountain?"
Ke Shicheng looked at He Qing and saw the sweat dripping on his collar, he said: "You climbed the stone steps, there is a road behind, you can drive."
He Qing's face was slightly red. He climbed the mountain for more than an hour without thinking about being patient, and even had the idea of giving up halfway, forgetting not to climb.
Ke Shicheng's voice was cold, sweet, and male, but he didn't seem to like to talk much.
"Old uncle, is that snake demon specially here to kill me?"
After what happened last night and listening to their conversation, He Qing had to think about it.
