At around eleven o'clock in the evening, it started to rain lightly, and a biting cold wind kept blowing. The unclosed wooden windows creaked. Water vapor kept rushing into the room, making the ground wet.
"Ding! We will travel again in twenty-four hours, host please be prepared."
Cao Yi, who was holding the Cang Hai Chao Sheng Qu picture, had no reaction.
An hour later, Cao Yi put away the Cang Hai Chao Sheng Qu Diagram, stood up, and walked to the long flute lying on the ground. With a wave of his hand, the long flute automatically played into his hand as if it was alive.
After leaving the room, he walked to the door of the room where Xiao Tian was and took a look, seeing that everything was as usual.
Cao Yi left the Taoist temple and followed the path through the sparse woods to the shore where the boat he used that day was parked. He jumped up and got on the boat.
The surrounding waves, which could only be described as ordinary, immediately grew larger, pushing the boat towards the lake at a speed far exceeding that of a human oar.
Ten minutes later, when he saw that he was far enough away from the island, Cao Yi put the long flute to his mouth.
Soon, the faint sound of flute floated in the air.
Gradually, soft and trickling, like the mist floating from the incense burner, as if it can be cut by a piece of wind, appears on the lake.
This move was exactly what Xu Fu used that day to cause fog to form on the lake.
As time continues to pass, the sound of the Xiao is high and low, soft and loud. When it reaches the extreme low, after a few circles, it becomes low again. After an unknown period of time, it suddenly rises.
The fog on the lake became extremely dense.
A few miles away, a fishing boat without lights cast a fishing net.
"Hey, why did it suddenly become so foggy?"
"Isn't that good? Even if the fishery officials come, they won't be able to find us."
"Yes, hehehehe"
There were voices coming from the fishing boat.
On the other side, the melody played by Cao Yi reached the critical point and fell with an ordinary syllable.
Huge waves appeared around, one meter high, and as time passed, the waves became higher and higher.
Cao Yi, who performed the Cang Hai Tide Shengqu without any scruples for the first time, was so immersed in it that he had no idea that the boat he was riding was getting closer and closer to an unlicensed fishing boat.
"What happened? Why are the waves getting bigger and bigger?"
"Remember the video last time? There won't be any monsters in Taihu that have practiced cultivation for thousands of years and turned into human forms."
"Nonsense, the state stipulates that goblins cannot become spirits after the founding of the People's Republic of China."
"It's time, stop talking nonsense."
"Why am I suddenly so sad?"
"Me too, I really want to cry."
…
In the dark night, on the bumpy fishing boat, the two people talked and cried.
After a while, the waves became smaller and the fog dispersed.
"What happened just now?"
"There's a monster, run away"
The two men woke up and immediately set off in the boat to escape, leaving behind their fishing nets.
…
In the early morning, the moist wind gently caressed the island.
In an empty room, Cao Yi stood.
The feet are covered with jade that is broken into small pieces and is pleasing to the eye.
The supplies purchased in the Xunlongjue world have been used up, and Cao Yi plans to sell some broken jade to buy supplies.
Just as I picked up a few, the sound of fishing boat engines and voices came.
Cao Yi frowned, dropped the broken jade, walked out of the room, and closed the door.
After taking just two steps, he sensed Xiaotian's aura being disordered and turned around and entered Xiaotian's room.
Soon, Cao Yi's voice came from inside: "How come you have degenerated to this point at this time?"
…
Seven or eight minutes later, Cheng Wan's mother and son, the Han family siblings, and Fatty Mu Heng arrived at the Taoist temple.
Unlike yesterday, they all carried gift boxes.
"Taoist Master"
Cheng Wan shouted softly.
No response.
Mu Heng poked his head into the shrine and said, "No one is there. Have they gone out?"
"Then we'll wait in the yard."
Cheng Wan walked to the stone table and placed the gift box on it.
After a while, maybe out of boredom, Mu Heng came over and asked, "Sister Wan, what is your gift?"
“Some gadgets”
Cheng Wan said casually.
Mu Heng glanced at it and didn't ask further questions out of politeness.
Cheng Wan saw that Mu Heng's gift box was rectangular and subconsciously said, "Your gift is a musical instrument."
Mu Heng opened the gift box generously, revealing a very beautiful flute.
"This seems to be Zizhu"
Cheng Wan is obviously a discerning person.
"Sister Wan, I've shown you all mine, what's in yours?"
Mu Heng couldn't help but said.
Cheng Wan picked up the gift box and opened it, revealing an emerald openwork dragon-head hairpin.
"so beautiful"
Mu Heng's eyes lit up.
Cheng Wan closed the gift box again.
Mu Heng looked at the silent Han siblings: "What are you preparing?"
Han Ying held the gift box and opened it generously, revealing a black bank card.
"Black Card"
Mu Heng's eyes were full of sparkle,
"What kind of black card is it? It's a black bank card from China Merchants Bank. Look carefully."
Han Ying said angrily.
Mu Heng smiled awkwardly.
At this time, a strong and cold wind blew from the lake, and everyone standing in the cold yard trembled.
Not far away, an unclosed door was blown half open by the wind, making a soft sound.
"You can't enter the shrine without permission. Enter this room to avoid the wind."
Mu Heng walked in first.
Immediately, there was a cry of surprise.
Cheng Wan's mother and son, as well as the Han family siblings, followed curiously.
Then they were all shocked.
I saw broken emeralds all over the ground, top-quality red emeralds, purple emeralds, and green emeralds everywhere.
"Are these real or fake?"
Han Ying was speechless.
Cheng Wan walked to the broken jade, knelt down, picked up one and looked at it for a while, breathing quickly: "It's true."
"Really! It's all true!"
Han Ying couldn't believe it.
Cheng Wan picked up other jadeite and looked at it, with a look of regret on her face: "Why are all the jadeites of such good quality smashed to pieces?"
At this time, Mu Heng's weak voice sounded: "It seems that we shouldn't come in, let alone touch the Taoist priest's things."
"Yeah"
Cheng Wan quickly put Jade down and pulled her son out.
The others followed and walked out.
Next, for half an hour, there was silence in the courtyard.
Finally, Mu Heng broke the silence: "Sister Wan, are you still giving me that jade hairpin?"
Cheng Wan hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Send it off."
Mu Heng looked at the Han siblings.
Han Ying said angrily: "Look at what we do, no one has too much money."
"that is"
Han Kuang, who had been silent all this time, also said something.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, golden light suddenly erupted in Xiaotian's room, turning the entire Taoist temple into a golden color.
Everyone was astonished.
The golden light dissipated, the door opened, and Cao Yi came out with some sweat on his forehead.
His eyes glanced around and finally landed on Xiaozhi: "Are you feeling better?"
Xiaozhi was so shocked by the golden light that he just didn't come back to his senses. When he heard Cao Yi's words, his expression was blank.
Cheng Wan answered for her son: "In the past few weeks since I was diagnosed with terminal esophageal cancer, I slept so well at night for the first time."
"Come in with Pindao"
Cao Yi turned around and entered the shrine.
Everyone followed.
After sitting down, Cao Yi called Xiaozhi to him, tapped his finger on Xiaozhi's chest, and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Xiaozhi nodded vigorously.
Cao Yi used the method of returning gold liquid to elixir, outputting the five elements of spiritual energy, flushing Xiaozhi's esophagus and his internal organs.
Almost, ten minutes later.
Cao Yi tapped Xiaozhi's chest again and asked, "Does it still hurt?"
Xiaozhi, who was blushing, shook his head.
“It’s okay”
Cao Yi patted Xiaozhi.
"Thank you, Taoist priest"
Xiaozhi bowed politely and walked back.
Cheng Wan also expressed his gratitude.
Cao Yi smiled and nodded.
…
Half an hour later, the group left the gifts and left.
In the afternoon, Cao Yi went out to the island to purchase some supplies.
