All for the infinite flow of Taoism

Holding Doraemon's alarm clock and thinking for a long time, Shen Ruan suddenly remembered that she seemed to have tripped over something just now...

What is it?

Is it a rope? !If it was the rope used to fix him and Xue Youbing that tripped him just now, then it means that everything before was not a dream!

Holding Doraemon in his arms, Shen Ruan pushed open the only half door left outside his house and rushed out in a hurry.

When he got to the well, Shen Ruan really saw the knotted rope left on the ground.Because neither of them was very good at 'kidnapping' at that time, the knot was very ugly.

Shen Ruan thought that there should be no uglier knot in the world than this, so this must be the rope he and Xue Youbing put together just now. Is the flow of time different? Where did I stay for a day, and here only 1 minute passed? Then... this is really a good way to steal time to deal with recitation homework (a person who has been oppressed by the master for many years and forced to recite classics The beautiful fantasy of teenagers)..."

Thinking of Master, Shen Ruan looked at the time on the Doraemon alarm clock in his hand.

Tsk!I'm going to sleep, if I don't sleep, I won't be able to get up when I offer incense tomorrow...

Two hours later, rubbing his sleepy eyes, Shen Ruan sat up on the small wooden bed in the white and blue vest and shorts.

With a dangling still body, she mechanically turned off the alarm clock, folded the blanket on the bed, and Shen Ruan picked up the neatly folded Taoist robe by the bed, and went to the courtyard to wash up.

The summer insects are singing quietly, and the sky is beginning to appear.

The high mountain area of ​​Kanyu Mountain in the dog days of midsummer drove away Shen Ruan's last trace of drowsiness when she woke up with the non-scorching residual heat.

The cool well water splashed on the face, and the splashed water sprayed on the wild small mountain flowers beside the well to moisten its stems and leaves.

The master said that this well is the place where the spiritual energy is most concentrated in the entire Kanyu Mountain, and the water in this well is naturally spiritual water, so it should not be wasted after washing your face.

Although he has nowhere to use the leftover water today, it would be nice to water all the water to the plants in the yard.

Speaking of plants, Shen Ruan carried the basin with a missing hole in his hand to a place where wild flowers and weeds grew most lushly, and poured all the water left over from washing his face.

Looking at this clump of wild chrysanthemums that were born in nature and had never been taken care of but bloomed very beautifully, Shen Ruan suddenly felt very happy.

Although the master who has been with him since he was a child passed away half a year ago, the vigorous flowers are still there, the yard is still there, the Taoist temple is still there, and although the temple is dilapidated, it is still very dignified. They are still there... so he...he doesn't feel alone...

Hmm... Even if sometimes he feels that the temple is too quiet, but he... he still has his uncle, so he really feels sad, he can still go to the Qingning Temple on the mountainside to find his uncle.

That is the most prosperous Taoist temple in Kanyu Mountain, and it is very lively with people coming and going all day long.And the uncle is also one of the most popular priests there, so even if Shen Ruan goes for a walk every day, there is no problem.

Sometimes, if he felt that his ears were too quiet, Shen Ruan would go down the mountain to stay there for a day after offering incense to Guanli, because of this, he would feel that he was the only one left in the world...

And... the master told him so before he left.

Although the master hates that the uncle left Yiqing Temple where they grew up together for "future" and "fame and fortune" and went to Qingning Temple.

But because he was afraid that after he left, there would be only the little apprentice in the temple, so he had to ask Shen Ruan, a stubborn little fool, to let him get in touch with people more.

Otherwise, he was afraid that after he left, his apprentice would spend his whole life quietly guarding this Taoist temple that no one cared about...

Wiping her eyes, Shen Ruan looked up at the sun that was about to show its head in the sky, and hurriedly packed herself and went to the front yard.

Every morning before the sun shines through the clouds on Yiqing Temple, three pillars of fragrance must be lit in front of the Sanqing statue in the Sanqing Hall in the front yard.

On the mountain, the time for the sun to reveal its true face is always earlier, so after Shen Ruan had been moaning for a while, it was time for him to offer incense to Sanqing Tianzun.

Kneeling on a patched futon, Shen Ruan solemnly burned three sticks of incense for the three Qing Tianzun - Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, and Taishang Laojun.

Seeing the faint blue smoke rising from the incense, Shen Ruan bowed solemnly three times according to the rules, then stepped back and left the Sanqing Hall.

After leaving the main hall of the Sanqing Tianzun in the front yard, Shen Ruan took a clean rag and wiped the statues of the Sifang Gods and the Six Imperial Gods in the side halls on the left and right of the front yard, and put incense on them respectively.

After leaving the front yard, Shen Ruan returned to the backyard where he always lived. In the temple just south of the backyard was the statue of their ancestor Shuxi Zun. There were six rows of gods on both sides of the statue. The master said This is the 230 viewers before him, and he is the 233 after his master.

Sitting cross-legged in front of the statue on the statue of the ancestor Shuxi, Shen Ruan said: "Master, master~ I had an adventure last night, I accidentally entered a different world, and I also met a friend, this It should be my first friend in 18 years, right? His name is Xue Youbing, a rather awkward name. I didn’t dare to say that in front of him, because he looks fierce. But although he looks fierce, but In fact, he is a kind and good man. Did you see that ball of rope in the yard? It was used by him to fix the two of us in case I would get lost when I came back here...just...huh? I'm back, the rope He also came back with me... Then... where's Xue Youbing? He won't be lost, right?"

Talking and talking, Shen Ruan, who suddenly found out that her new friend's whereabouts were missing, fell into deep worry and doubt in front of the statue of the patriarch.

Xue Youbing, where the hell are you now?

The author has something to say: Forgive my shortness.
