Chapter twenty-three
Qingyuan knew that they had reunited with their old friends and there must be something important to discuss. He knew the interests and immediately left, and naturally took away the mountain mandrel Gucang.
Ge Yuer seems to be not very familiar with this Mr. Yun Jing, and most of the things that Xiaoyu doesn't know is easy to know.
After getting Mr. Ge secretly told him, Qingyuan took Xiaoyu away.
Only Mr. Yun Jing and Ge Lao were left in the room.
It suddenly became silent.
Mr. Yun Jing glanced outside and said, "That young man is a practitioner, but his Taoist practice seems not high, but he looks clear and unrestrained at his behavior and actions, not like he is a beginner in the Dharma. Looking at the roots and bones, I am afraid he is also not vulgar. Taoist practice should be more profound."
Mr. Ge smiled and said, "He seems to have made a breakthrough recently. When he first met, he had not yet begun his practice. I only saw that he was extraordinary in his temperament, not in the pool, so he took him in."
"I haven't gotten started before, but I've only made a breakthrough recently? It's a strange thing..."
Mr. Yun Jing seemed quite interested and said, "The man in black clothes was so fierce that he was ruthless and wild. I'm afraid he was not a common person?"
Mr. Ge said: "That's a monster. He almost took my life and Xiaoyu, and was later conquered by Qingyuan."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Yun Jing became more and more surprised, but he did not get entangled in this, and instead asked, "Xiao Yu is the granddaughter of Gong Ming?"
Mr. Ge nodded slightly and said, "She is Ge Zhan's daughter."
After saying that, Mr. Ge sighed softly: "After the death of the prime minister, I went to the battlefield with Ge Zhan several times, but I was old and weak. In fact, by that time, I no longer followed the army. When the news of Ge Zhan's defeat came, I knew it was not good, so I took her to escape, but Mrs. Ge Zhan couldn't escape, and they all suffered."
Mr. Yun Jing frowned immediately and said, "Which character is the one who started?"
"I don't know." Mr. Ge shook his head slightly and said, "I have guessed that many people, such as Jiang Baijian, Yan Yu, Hu Hao, who was ambitious at the time, even spies from Nanliang and Yuanmeng, or Lindong Bai family, etc. But there is no clue..."
Mr. Yun Jing finally sighed and said, "It's all fate."
"Fate..."
Mr. Ge sighed and said, "According to the original rules, I should come again next year, but recently, it's not easy to stay again because of the weird thing, so I came early."
"This is a coincidence." Mr. Yun Jing said: "Miss Guoer will also arrive early, about another month later."
After saying that, Mr. Yun Jing sighed again and said, "She came out of seclusion and heard that Ming Gong died, Ge Zhan died in battle, and all the Ge clans were destroyed, and she was extremely guilty."
"No wonder she is." Ge Lao said: "When she was born, the prime minister invited his master to see it. He thought she should have the fate of the immortal Taoist fruit, so he named it Ge Guo and sent it to the mountains to practice. The prime minister said that no matter how the world changes, it has nothing to do with her..."
"But she is Ming Gong's daughter and Ge Zhan's real sister after all."
Mr. Yun Jing said sadly: "Well, it may not be bad to hand Xiaoyu over to her to teach."
Mr. Ge nodded and said, "I originally wanted to wait for a year, but now I'm waiting for more than a month, so it's okay."
Mr. Yun Jing added some tea and said leisurely: "The world is rising and falling, and it is already a joy for you to survive."
Mr. Ge suddenly fell silent.
...
Outside the hospital.
Qingyuan followed the young Taoist priest and visited the viewing scenery.
Although it is simple in Taoist temples, it is also classical and generous, and the Feng Shui pattern is also given particular attention, which is quite beneficial to the view.
When a young Taoist priest was young, he went up the mountain and worshipped in Mingyuan Taoist Temple, and received the name of Qiming. As for the secularists, it seems that his surname is Zhang, but he came from Taoist temples and did not pay much attention to this worldly affairs, but he just said it.
"Master Qi Ming."
Kiyohara thought for a while and said with a smile: "I see that the water flows in this Taoist temple is clear, and vegetables, melons, and fruits are planted. I think it is self-sufficient and there is no need to rely on the outside world. Since it is a hidden world and is not stained with the world, then you have not gone down the mountain to the city?"
The young Taoist priest named Qi Ming was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head, then looked up and said, "How is that possible? Don't you know that all Taoist people like us have to learn to be born in the world? I am also a person who has been born in the world, so how could it have never gone down the mountain?"
Qingyuan smiled and said, "Since that's the case, the Taoist priest is familiar with some of the things about Yuanjing City at the foot of the mountain?"
Qi Ming's eyes flashed and he said with a strong attitude: "Of course I can recognize it."
Qingyuan nodded, took out three tokens, placed them in front of him, and said, "Can the Taoist priest distinguish the origin of these three things?"
"this……"
Qi Ming was stunned for a moment.
Kiyohara said: "The Taoist Master doesn't recognize it?"
Qi Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "How is it possible? It's just that these tokens are too old and cannot be seen clearly. I'll wipe them clean to identify them. After all, Yuanjing City is a big city, and there are many clans in each family."
Qingyuan nodded and smiled, "Okay."
Qi Ming took out three tokens and hurried away.
Ge Yuer blinked and said, "He lied to others... He didn't understand..."
Qingyuan smiled and said, "Although this is isolated from the world, after all, Yuanjing City is at the foot of the mountain, and it is impossible for him to have no contact. Although this young Taoist priest rarely goes down the mountain, his senior brothers and elders must have gone out... When he goes, he mostly goes to find his senior brother to ask questions."
Ge Yuer suddenly realized and said, "Sir, I'm so bad."
Qingyuan smiled twice, but instead remembered Mr. Ge's method of killing someone by borrowing a knife.
The mandrill didn't understand these tricks, it was just muttering its new name in a low voice: "Gu Cang...Gu Cang..."
After a long time, the innocent young Taoist priest ran back and said loudly: "I understand..."
Kiyohara smiled and said, "What do you know?"
Qi Ming looked proud and pointed at the three tokens and said one by one: "This one is the Bai family branch; the other one is the Zhao family in Yuanjing City; the last one is the Qian family in Yuanjing City."
"Zhao family? Qian family?"
Qingyuan frowned and said, "How is the details of these two families in Yuanjing City? Can Taoist Master be familiar with these two families?"
"This... is naturally... familiar." Qi Ming coughed twice and said, "It's just a bit complicated for a while. I'll sort out my ideas so as not to be complicated."
After saying that, he turned around and left again.
Ge Yuer stuck out his tongue and said, "Sir, if you ask him, he will go there. Wouldn't this stupid Taoist priest be very tired?"
Qingyuan shook his head slightly and smiled, "He just took three tokens to ask. I believe his senior brothers or elders would be a little confused. Now that he asks again, he must be curious and alert, and then he will follow him. Then the one in this Taoist temple can really solve my doubts for me should be here too."
Ge Yu'er said oh, her eyes full of admiration.
This is, the young Taoist priest Zhang Qiming is back.
But this time, he lowered his head, quite helpless.
And behind him, a younger Taoist priest followed him.
