Fairy Tea Temple Notes

Qingshui Nunnery is a nunnery in Zhegu Town. It is located on Zhegu Mountain, just halfway up the mountain.Partridge Mountain is just a small hill with residential houses under the hill and a nunnery on the hill.The nuns live in poverty and need to grow their own vegetables.

When Xiang Jiang found Qingshui nunnery, the abbot of Qingshui received Xiang Jiang. This is an old nun, old-fashioned, but with bright eyes.The first time Xiang Jiang saw her, he bowed down and asked if there was a nun in her nunnery with the common name: Su Baozhen.

"What do you want from her?"

Host Shimizu didn't see any change in expression on his face, and spoke slowly.

"I am Ziqing's apprentice, my name is Xiang Jiang. Master and Su Baozhen had an appointment 70 years ago. Today, I was sent to find her on an urgent matter."

Although Xiang Jiang's life is simple, she has met some good people. She intuitively felt that this old nun was not simple, so she honestly spoke out.

"There is no such thing as Su Baozhen in the nunnery, the benefactor found the wrong place."

Abbot Qingshui spoke indifferently, and Xiang Jiang noticed a cold light in the corner of her eyes.

"Does the abbot know where to find her?"

"You came from afar, let's take a rest in the nunnery first, you came from Luofu Mountain Huang Xu Temple, right?"

"Yes, does the abbot know my master?"

Xiang Jiang wondered, after all, after removing them from the nunnery, there are two nuns around, would it be inconvenient to say?

"Ziqing is famous, I know him."

Abbot Qingshui was supported by a young nun and led Xiang Jiang to her fasting room.

"Ting Xiang, you go to the kitchen and ask Qing Rong to cook a bowl of vegetarian food and bring it over."

"Yes."

The little nun left.

Finally, only Abbot Qingshui and Xiang Jiang were left in the fasting room.

"Who did the benefactor hear that Su Baozhen is in my nunnery?"

The old nun asked Xiang Jiang about it slowly, she was obviously very cautious.

"It was Weng Po from Zhu village who told me."

"There is a nun from Zhu village in my nunnery. Qingrong will come over later, you can ask her."

"Thank you, Abbot Shimizu."

Xiang Jiang always felt that Abbot Qingshui seemed to be hiding something, but it would be good to ask her when Qingrong brought the vegetarian meal.

"Master Ziqing, how are you doing recently?"

The old nun spoke in a homely tone.

"Master is alright, but he rarely appears in front of his disciples."

"The Daoist is already a half-immortal, and probably the mortals don't have much to say."

"Has Abbot Qingshui met my master?"

"Speaking of which, we really met once. After all, it was 70 years ago."

The old nun smiled slightly when she spoke, and Xiang Jiang was startled. What happened 70 years ago?

"May I ask Abbot Qingshui, did you see my master at Luofu Mountain?"

"Little girl is dishonest, you want to ask me, has your master ever been to Partridge Town in Fujian?"

"Yes."

Xiang Jiang was thin-skinned and blushed.

"You have been to Zhu Village, what do you think of that place?"

"That village is different from the surrounding villages. The women in Zhu Village wear flowers and hairpins on their heads, and wear long-sleeved clothes, as if..."

Xiang Jiang paused, trying to find an appropriate word.

"It seems that the nearby villages have entered the modern age, and the people of Zhu Village are still living in ancient times."

The old nun nodded, she agreed with Xiang Jiang's words.

"70 years ago, Zhu village was hit by a flood. I followed Master to rescue the drowned villagers. There, I met Master Ziqing."

The old nun finally told Xiang Jiang where she met her master.

"The life span of a person is amazing. The Ziqing real person I saw at that time was about 50 to [-] years old."

Xiang Jiang's eyes widened, but she didn't say anything.

She is not a direct disciple of Master Ziqing, so she has very little contact with the master. People in the Taoist temple will not discuss the age of the master.

"Abbot, I have brought the vegetarian meal."

A young woman's voice came from outside the door.

"Qing Rong, come in."

Qing Rong pushed open the door and came in with a vegetarian meal. She immediately noticed Xiang Jiang's existence. She seemed to have sensed something, and looked at Xiang Jiang sadly.

"Qing Rong, this man is Zi Qing's apprentice, and he said he was looking for Su Baozhen."

Qing Rong nodded, and she looked at Xiang Jiang.

Xiang Jiang also looked at her. This nun named Qing Rong, who practiced with hair, looked only sixteen or seventeen years old. She was very handsome and familiar. She had the same face as Su Baozhen in the photos of the Republic of China. What's more, Su Bao in the photo is really black and white, but the person in front of him is colorful and vivid, standing right in front of him.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and the surprise on Xiang Jiang's face widened. Finally, Qing Rong said slowly:

"Su Bao is really my common name."

The setting sun outside the car window was like blood, shining on Su Baozhen's half body leaning against the window. She looked sideways at the streets and cars on the road, and was curious about the things outside.

Sitting next to her, Xiang Jiang secretly observed her, Xiang Jiang felt that he had encountered the most incredible thing in his life.However, she has heard a lot of anecdotes and strange things in the temple. Although she can't confirm them one by one, she usually only listens to them as stories.

70 years have left no trace on Su Baozhen's body. She is still young and beautiful, and she will remain young forever. How did she do it?

Xiang Jiang felt that it was too rash to ask directly. Xiang Jiang felt that Master must be very clear about why Su Baozhen didn't age.

In the Taoist temple, Xiang Jiang is a lay disciple, who doesn't even have a Taoist name, and Xiang Jiang is an abandoned baby.

She has just grown up, and she still needs to make a choice between returning to society and becoming a nun.Perhaps it was because he was special in the division that he was sent down the mountain to perform this task.

Before going to the Immortal Tea Temple in Baishui Town, Xiang Jiang avoided everyone and made a phone call to Ke Shicheng.Hearing her panicked words, Ke Shicheng suggested that Xiang Jiang bring Su Baozhen to the Immortal Tea Temple.

"I've been here before."

The car drove into the township, and the road was lined with farmland and pools, as well as dark green mountains in the distance.Su Baozhen showed a dazed expression, she was obviously very happy when she recognized the places she had been to before.

"Before?"

"long, long ago."

Su Baozhen's face, looking out of the window, the sun's rays illuminated her face particularly softly.Suddenly, she pointed to a mountain in front of her and said faintly:

"Fengyi Mountain."

Xiang Jiang thought she had been here before, did she know Master Lin?Or if he said he would take her to the Immortal Tea Temple in Qingshui Town, why did she say yes?

"Have you ever been to Xiancha Temple?"

"I've been there, Taoist Xinchi..."

Su Baozhen remembered a character, a handsome and tall Taoist priest in fluttering white clothes, and a lush tea tree behind him.

Xiang Jiang didn't know who Taoist Xinchi was, so he guessed that he was also a figure from his early years.

It was the abbot of Qingshui who said that it was difficult for her to hide Su Baozhen. She was really afraid that some villagers from Zhu village would come to the nunnery to burn incense and recognize Su Baozhen. Qingshui nunnery was too close to Zhu village.

Therefore, Xiang Jiang needs a reliable place where Su Baozhen can live temporarily.

The driver carried the two people to the south peak of Fengyi Mountain and put them down on the mountainside.

Xiang Jiang took Su Baozhen and walked slowly towards the Immortal Tea Temple, and in the Immortal Tea Temple, Ke Shicheng, Lin Jinkai, and A Jiang had already seen the car coming and were waiting at the entrance of the temple.

"Miss Su, please come this way."

Lin Jinkai treated Su Baozhen very respectfully, and invited her to sit at the stone table.

It was the first time for Xiang Jiang to come to Xiancha Temple. She felt that Ajaan might not be a human being, and she was attracted by Ajaan's gorgeous attire, as if she had stepped out of an ancient painting.

"Miss Su, please have some tea."

Lin Jinkai poured a cup of tea for Su Baozhen, Su Baozhen said thank you, she picked up the teacup with both hands, and drank it slowly, her manner was like a lady from a great family.

Su Baozhen realized that the two strange men were looking at her, and even the gorgeous banshee was also watching her, but she was very indifferent and took it easy.

The long years have worn away her temperament, and she has been polished smooth and round like a pebble by the sea.

"I once heard a strange thing from Master. Seventy years ago, Master was collecting corpses in Zhu Village and met a woman."

Lin Jinkai is not a talker, he usually doesn't talk much, but he tells stories slowly.

"That woman was regarded as a witch by the villagers, saying that she summoned the Sea Dragon King and caused huge waves to flood the village."

Listening to Lin Jinkai's words, Su Baozhen's eyes showed curiosity. She didn't remember what happened back then, and it sounded fresh to her.

"Is it Taoist Xinchi?"

Su Baozhen asked Lin Jinkai if there was such a person in her memory.

"Yes, he is my master."

Linkin nodded.

Taoist Xinchi seldom talked about his early life, because this Taoist lived in turmoil all his life, and his fate was quite rough.But he told Lin Jinkai about Su Baozhen's story.

"Being treated as a witch, what happened next?"

Su Baozhen is still asking, she needs to retrieve some memories.

"The shaking of the ground alarmed the people in the Tianshi Mansion. At that time, the Tianshi Mansion sent Master Ziqing to investigate. He and my master saved you."

This is a woman who was almost murdered because she could prophesy and because she had an indissoluble relationship with the ocean.

"Then, where did I go?"

Su Baozhen has some broken memories. Through Lin Jinkai's narration, she recalled the past when she was almost thrown into the sea by angry villagers.

"If Ms. Su can't remember what happened later, she has to ask Master Ziqing."

Lin Jinkai's master didn't say what happened afterwards, or even the progress of the investigation on the earthquake. What exactly did they find out?

"Sister Baozhen, can I call you that? My name is Ajaan."

Ajaan bowed slightly to Su Baozhen, she was really a magnificent banshee.

"Yes, Sister Ajiang."

Su Baozhen could tell that Ajaan was not human, and he was the only one present who was older than her.

"Sister Baozhen, do you remember anything later?"

Ajaan is a demon after all, she understands what happened to Su Bao better than humans.

"I just remember that I seemed to wake up from the seaside. It was a night and the stars were very bright. I knew I couldn't go into the village. I walked and walked to the foot of Qingshui Temple. I spent the night on a Wuli Pavilion over there. Before dawn, I thought of Abbot Qingshui, she once told me that if I have nowhere to go, I can go to her nunnery."

What Su Bao really thought of was Abbot Qingshui 70 years ago. Fortunately, after hearing her bizarre story, Abbot Qingshui decided to take her in and hide her in the nunnery.

"This happened a few days ago?"

"Three days ago."

He Jiang was quite surprised to hear Su Baozhen say that three days ago, three days ago, the master suddenly called her and asked him to go to a fishing village in Fujian to find Su Baozhen.

At least Master Qingzi knows the day when Su Baozhen wakes up, so it's no wonder he said he had an agreement with Su Baozhen.What kind of agreement is it?
