The two of them made a plan and were about to go out and leave after holding the thing in their arms, when Tao Haozhe suddenly stopped.
"When you come to the Earth Temple at night and have to take things with you, it would be inappropriate not to go to the main hall to pay homage to the Earth God."
"Grandpa said, let's go in and pay our respects right now." Tao Yu nodded, and the two of them stepped into the main hall.
The statue of the landlady in Kaoshan Village is not kind, but rather majestic.
On the altar, two oil lamps were lit and many fruit cakes were placed.
The two people placed the celadon gourd on the altar table, then bowed down and murmured something, probably saying something like visiting late at night, please don't sin.
Through the gap in the curtain, Tao Le saw the celadon gourd clearly, and then his mind was shaken as he recalled something.
She had seen this gourd in her previous life. Not only had she seen it, but she was also deeply impressed by it.
Three years later, she returned to Kaoshan Village to pay her grandfather's funeral.
At that time, I felt unspeakably sad, so I went to the Earth Temple in the back mountain to worship and pray that my grandfather’s soul would go peacefully and be reborn as soon as possible.
On that day, the vase was also placed on the altar, with a few flowers inserted in it.
The body of the bottle is a beautiful lake green, full of infinite vitality. As long as you take a few glances, you will be immersed in the intoxicating green.
By some strange coincidence, she stood in front of the altar and hugged the bottle with both hands.
In a daze, there seemed to be a stream of clear water penetrating between her eyebrows, but when she thought about it carefully, it disappeared without a trace.
When she came back to her senses, she found that the bottle had become dull and lacked the sense of surprise when she first saw it.
This incident was indeed a bit weird, so after returning home, Tao Le didn't mention it to anyone.
But the reason why she remembered it so clearly was because from that day on, she suddenly had a golden finger. From then on, she went farther and farther and more steadily on the road of practicing medicine and saving people.
Tao Le was sure that she had never seen this bottle in her life, let alone touched it.
But the thing in front of me, under the light and shadow of the oil lamp, was still extremely dark, not as bright as in my memory.
Tao Le suddenly thought of the problem.
This time she was reborn with a golden finger.
So the most precious thing in this bottle actually no longer exists, only a shell remains.
Past and Present. Which one is the cause and which one is the effect? Tao Le suddenly felt a little confused.
"Let's go." Tao Xingyi stood up and said.
Tao Yu stepped forward and was about to pick up the bottle. Suddenly, there was a bright light in the room and a sudden change occurred.
The dazzling white light emitted from the bottle was so bright that no one dared to look at it.
Except for Ximu, everyone present closed their eyes subconsciously, including Tao Le himself.
The light quickly faded. Tao Haozhe and Tao Yu opened their eyes and found that the bottles on the altar had disappeared out of thin air.
"Who?" Tao Yu's first reaction was that someone had taken the thing away.
But this is unlikely. At such a close distance, if someone appeared, how could it be hidden from his ears, unless it was an extraordinary person like the master.
If there were strangers in this village, how could they sit back and watch this treasure gather dust.
Tao Yu searched inside and outside the main hall, went to the door to look around, and lifted the cloth under the altar table, but found nothing.
At this time, his eyes fell on the curtain behind Tu Tu Gong. If there was anyone, they would probably be there.
Seeing Tao Yu coming over, Tao Le was extremely worried. She hugged Simu tightly and huddled in a corner of the curtain, hoping that he would suddenly change his mind.
It wasn't very far to begin with, so Tao Yu walked closer in a few steps, snorted softly, and pulled hard.
The curtain was pulled open, and the dim light shone in. Tao Yu's face was gloomy, and the anger he had before became even stronger.
Tao Le had already thought of what to say when he found out.
I just said that I couldn't sleep at night and went out to hang out. Everyone was hanging out, including me.
Tao Yu's eyes glanced around and landed on Tao Le. She immediately forced out a smile and just waited for the other party to ask questions before she immediately threw out those words.
But even at such a close distance, Tao Yu didn't seem to notice her at all, and his eyes didn't even linger for a moment.
"There's obviously no one around, so where did this bottle go?" Tao Yu let go of the curtain, and it immediately came together, as if it had never been separated.
Tao Le took a long breath quietly, looked at Ximu in his arms, and then met the latter's flattering eyes.
Is that you, Your Highness? Blocking my cousin's view for me? Anyway, thank you.
Tao Le gently stroked his back. Such a simple action made Ximu feel a faint joy in his heart.
Lin silently shielded himself. Two universes, one Highness, why does he always become another person when facing Tao Le, completely different from before.
If the girls who were eager to meet His Highness knew this, they would probably flood the imperial capital with broken hearts and tears!
"Yu'er." Tao Haozhe's voice was a little bitter: "Stop looking for her."
"Since it's a treasure, it has spirituality. Or maybe it's the landowner who doesn't want us to take it away."
"Grandpa, are you saying that this was not done by humans?"
"The two of us are here. If there is someone, we can still hide it from you." Tao Haozhe said in despair:
"I was thinking just now, even if you don't know its true value, it's impossible for no one to touch such a delicate vessel."
"But it's just sitting there in that pile of rubbish, and it hasn't been moved for so many years. No wonder, no wonder."
Tao Yu also agreed with his point of view: "I have no chance of it anyway, so it's useless to force it. Let's go back now."
"Oh, that's all we can do." The two of them bowed to the Lord of the Land a few more times. Compared to the perfunctory way they did before, this time they were much more sincere.
Strange to say, at this moment, a gust of wind blew up out of thin air in the hall, and there was also an extremely unpleasant and sharp whistling sound in the middle, which seemed to express the host's intention of expelling the guests.
The door opened amidst the sound of wind, and the door leaves stretched straight outward, like two hands seeing off guests.
Tao Yu helped Tao Haozhe and left the Tutu Temple as quickly as possible, stumbling down the mountain.
As soon as they left, the temple immediately returned to calm, as if everything just now was just Tao Le dreaming.
Of course she knew this wasn't a dream. Just when the white light flashed just now, that familiar cold feeling appeared in the center of her eyebrows again, and she still can't get rid of it.
As for those visions, she didn't think much about them at all. Who else could it be but the omnipotent cat uncle in his arms?
