It was past ten o'clock in the morning, and the rising sun kept throwing off light and heat, but it still couldn't reverse the cold and humid weather.
Because it had just rained heavily not long ago, the water around the island was very muddy. The sun shone on it and the wind blew on it, causing the light waves to look spectacular from a distance but unbearable up close.
Squeak, the door of the Taoist temple was opened from the inside. Cao Yi, wearing a blue Taoist robe, carrying a bamboo basket on his back, walked along the low wall of the Taoist temple, blown by the cold wind, to the vegetable patch behind the Taoist temple.
Looking around, there are Chinese cabbage, white radish, carrot, spinach, lettuce...
They were planted together by the two of them while the master was still here. The vegetable field has had a good harvest, but the master is gone.
Cao Yi looked at it for a while, then came to the area where the white radish was, and silently worked on the magic method to turn decay into something magical.
Then, an astonishing scene happened. The white radish leaves that were originally just swaying gently in the wind began to dance violently, and some even made various movements.
If a normal person saw it, they would be so scared that they would sit on the ground.
Cao Yi walked to a white radish and spit out two words: "Come out"
The body of the white radish buried in the soil shook a few times, then broke out of the soil, touched the ground with its tail roots, and walked back and forth a few steps, as if it was alive.
Cao Yi left the area where Bai Luobo was and walked forward. He called out whoever he liked.
After a while, there were seven vegetables standing proudly in the cold wind.
"Walk"
Cao Yi turned around and walked towards the Taoist temple.
The white radish was the first to follow, its roots touching the ground alternately.
The second one is a carrot, also with roots touching the ground.
The third one is a round Chinese cabbage. Because it has no roots, it jumps forward.
The fourth one is spinach, also dancing.
…
After a while, Cao Yi returned to the courtyard of the Taoist temple and said to the seven vegetables standing in a row: "Go to the kitchen."
Then he walked to the door of the room where Xiaotian was.
Seven vegetables either walked or jumped into the half-open kitchen.
After unlocking the door and entering the room, Cao Yi sensed Xiao Tian's unsteady aura and stepped forward to sort it out.
Just as he was about to leave, Cao Yi thought of something, the Sanqing Bell, which is an important Taoist magic weapon and has the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind.
Cao Yi took it out and tried shaking it a few times. A hint of impetuous spiritual energy emerged from Xiaotian's body, and he immediately calmed down.
Seeing that it was useful, Cao Yi locked the door, returned to the shrine, sat down and read the classics, occasionally ringing the Sanqing bell.
When it was approaching noon, Cao Yi put down the classics, took out the "Scroll of Qin Tian", and slowly opened it. The first thing that caught his eye was the picture of the rising tide of the sea.
Cao Yi did not skip it as usual, but continued to input the five elements' spiritual energy. Soon, a sea appeared in front of him.
The waves rolled in from the sky and hit the rocks, splashing like broken jade. The splashing waves look like clusters of white plum blossoms falling into the sea water like light rain from a distance.
Not long after, a small boat appeared on the sea, and a slender old man stood on it. He took off the flute tied around his waist and put it to his mouth.
A low, even somewhat suppressed, hoarse whistle sounded.
Cao Yi felt that his emotions were also affected and became depressed, as if there was nothing worth lingering in the world.
However, this depression did not last long and became high again.
Cao Yi, who was originally suppressed and unable to control himself, had an urge to go crazy again.
Less than a hundred breaths later, Xiao Sheng became deep again.
This kind of chirping sound, which is sometimes high and sometimes low, feels like ocean waves.
I don’t know how long it took, but the illusion disappeared and I returned to the temple.
Cao Yi took a long breath. If Xu Fu had been as good as this one percenter at that time, he would have been dead.
His eyes returned to the scroll, and after looking at it for a while, Cao Yi frowned. To perform this song, you must be able to play the flute.
Xiao, I know nothing about it, so I have to find someone to teach me.
At this time, there was the sound of a fishing boat engine and vague voices, which seemed to mention the word Taoist temple.
Pilgrims are coming!
Mi He's work efficiency is quite high.
Originally, Cao Yi thought it would take a few days. After all, it would be too weird for a monk to recommend a Taoist temple to others, and the success rate would not be very high.
At this time, in the southwest of the island, in the inlet guarded by reeds, in front of a wooden bridge several meters long, a small fishing boat was moored.
A woman about thirty years old, well dressed and elegant, and a little boy took the lead on the wooden bridge.
Then, a fat man with glasses and dark circles under his eyes.
Finally, there was a man and a woman, the man still had gauze on his head.
If Cao Yi were here, he would definitely recognize that these five people were the same five people he saved the night before.
"oops"
The little boy suddenly slipped and sat on the wooden bridge.
The woman with good temperament hurriedly helped her son, with an abnormal nervousness on her face: "Xiao Zhi, how are you?"
The little boy named Xiaozhi shook his head.
"I hope I can find that worldly master soon"
The woman with good temperament touched her son Xiaozhi's head, her eyes dim.
"The Taoist temple is over there"
a voice sounded.
The woman with good temperament looked up, her face full of hope.
Not long after, a group of five people walked along the path, through the sparse woods, and arrived in front of Yuxu Temple, which looked to be quite old.
"This Taoist temple is a bit broken."
"On the contrary, I think it's very good. Take the Xishan Guanyin Temple we just saw. It's such a tall Buddha statue. I don't know how much money was spent on it. It's full of the smell of copper."
"That's right, don't talk about hiding in the city. This will remind me of the Thunder King named Yang."
Young men and women and a fat man with dark circles under his eyes were talking in low voices.
The woman with good temperament glanced inside and asked, "Is anyone here?"
"Please come in"
A gentle voice sounded.
The woman with good temperament took the little boy and walked in first.
Cao Yi came out of the shrine and saw the two people walking in. He immediately recognized them. These two people were two of the five people he had saved yesterday.
At this time, three more people came in, one man and one woman. The man still had gauze on his head.
There is also a fat man with glasses and dark circles under his eyes.
Five people were rescued yesterday, and all of them arrived.
How did these people find this place?
Cao Yi was wondering in his heart when he heard the voice of a woman with good temperament: "We were introduced by Master Mingcheng from Xishan Guanyin Temple."
It turned out that Mi He introduced me.
But this is too coincidental.
No, these people were probably looking for themselves as their savior and met Mi He by accident.
Cao Yi, who understood, smiled and invited a few people in.
After some pleasantries, Cao Yi learned the names of five people.
The woman with good temperament is named Cheng Wan, and the little boy is named Xiaozhi. The two have a mother-son relationship.
The young girl's name is Han Ying, and the young man's name is Han Kuang. They are siblings.
The fat man with glasses and dark circles is named Mu Heng.
