Chapter 1302: : Once upon a time there was a mountain, and there was a mountain... (2

"Chen Peipei, do you want to go around?" Bai Xi asked.
"Well, it won't work at this time. I'll see if we can bypass this blocked road, and then we can find somewhere else nearby... Hey, this road can really be bypassed!" Check the map Chen Peipei said in surprise.
"Are you sure?" Qin Shiyu asked.
"It should be." Chen Peipei smiled.
"But..." Bai Xi looked at it, "It seems that there is no other car going this way!"
"Is it possible that they all followed the guidance of the navigation? That's why they didn't take this path." Chen Peipei said. .
Bai Xi shook her head and said that she didn't know it. At this time, Chen Peipei said confidently, "Let's walk, follow this road, and we will definitely be able to bypass this section of the road."
"Waiting is not a way, let's try to go down this road!" Qin Shiyu started the car directly, "maybe the front will bring us some surprises!"
"Sister Qin is right!" Chen Peipei smiled and replied. Seeing that both of them had made a decision, Bai Xi didn't raise any objections.
...
Ten minutes later.
The three people who took a different approach watched the road ahead were blocked.
Chen Peipei sat in the car, staring blankly at the big rocks and dirt on the road. The rocks were sprayed with the words "No road ahead, please go around". She pulled her head and her face was blank. A little skeptical of life.
Sitting in the driver's seat, Qin Shiyu said with a smile, "Should we get out of the car and remove this stone blocking the road?"
"Sister Qin, don't be kidding, just our little arms and legs, it's impossible to move this big rock." Chen Peipei said depressed.
"The road is very narrow, so it's hard for us to reverse." Bai Xi said.
Chen Peipei got out of the car and took a look. It was indeed not easy to fall, but she should still fall, but the series of blows made her a little tired, so she stood on the side of the road with her hands on her hips and a long sigh.
"Hey?" Chen Peipei glanced at her and suddenly tilted her head and looked at a hill next to her.
The hill is not high, the bottom half is soil with crops, and the top half is densely vegetation. On the top of the hill, she saw a strange parrot half hidden in the shade of the tree. The color was especially conspicuous against the turquoise background.
There is a white to light blue-white or purple-gray patch from the top of the head to the back of the neck, and the rest of the upper body is purple-blue-grey or light blue-grey-brown. The tail length is black and white intertwined.
"That parrot looks so special!" Chen Peipei cried, pointing to the parrot on the tree in the distance.
"It has a lot of colors, and the distribution is very uneven?" Bai Xi also saw the parrot.
"There is a Taoist temple next to it, and the parrot flew in." Qin Shiyu said.
"Taoist temple?"
"Ok."
"Sister Qin, Bai Xi, let's go and take a look!" Chen Peipei suggested.
"Okay!" Bai Xi and Qin Shiyu nodded, one carrying a bag, the other holding a camera, and following Chen Peipei, along a small dirt road less than one meter wide, they walked towards this building. A Taoist temple on a hill, almost completely hidden by trees.
...
Only when I walked to the foot of the mountain, I only changed the angle, and the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain was no longer obscured by trees. It was presented in the eyes of the three people more comprehensively. The simple style made it a perfect fit with this hill.
"I didn't expect such a small Taoist temple to appear in such a remote place..." Chen Peipei said with blinking eyes.
Qin Shiyu also looked up, picked up the camera borrowed from Shen Wufeng, and took a picture of the Taoist temple on the mountain, while Bai Xi used her mobile phone to record the surrounding scenery.
Afterwards, the three of them walked up the mountain.
The area under the jurisdiction of Rongcheng has many big mountains, but compared to those big mountains with white clouds only at the waist, this hill is like a small mound, and they reached the top of the mountain only a few minutes later.
What you see is a huge banyan tree with lush branches and umbrella-like shapes.
Under the tree is a Taoist temple, with courtyard walls, antique in style, and the words'Tuqiu Guan' written on the door plaque.
The gate was wide open, and looking in, you could see a huge bell hanging inside, with a few fallen leaves on the top of the bell.
An old hen brought a group of chicks on the ground outside the courtyard, and there were two big yellow dogs lying in front of the door.
Although the value of this Tuqiu Temple is not high, it does not have the slightest sense of shabby. It is a bit like the Taoist Temple hidden in the old forest in the TV series.
Chen Peipei reached into the ears of Bai Xi and Qin Shiyu and said, "Bai Xi, sister Qin, this Taoist temple feels so comfortable!"
Bai Xi and Qin Shiyu just gave an "um", and the three slowly walked towards the gate.
Qin Shiyu saw the two big yellow dogs at the door suddenly raised their heads alertly and stared at them, faintly baring their teeth.
She thought about it, stretched out her hand to grab the wrists of Chen Peipei and Bai Xi, and pulled them behind her, while running the psychic energy in her body at the same time, her eyes glowed with pale golden aura.
Animals have a keen sense of crisis. When Qin Shiyu mobilized psychic energy, the expressions of the two big yellow dogs suddenly became "softer".
"Someone..." Qin Shiyu just wanted to ask, when he saw a young man walk out of the view.
The man seems to be in his twenties at most. He is plainly dressed and handsome, but his skin is slightly darker. However, it is summer and the ultraviolet rays are relatively strong, so his skin tone is quite normal.
With a pot of corn kernels in his hand, he wanted to come out to feed the chickens. At the same time, the man also found Qin Shiyu's three people.
The two sides looked at each other, Qin Shiyu smiled and said, "Hello."
Chen Peipei also poked her head out from behind her, her eyes lit up slightly, her mouth was sweet, "Is this a handsome little brother..." Bai Xi next to her in a low voice greeted her.
The young man immediately showed a smile upon hearing this, and then asked them, "You are..."
"Oh, it's like this..." Chen Peipei, who was still behind Qin Shiyu, was talking. She poked her head out of Qin Shiyu's shoulder and stared at the handsome young man and said.
"We wanted to go to the beach in Qingxi Town, but there was a traffic jam there. I looked at the map to see if I could get around the blocked road. Then I walked here in a daze. It doesn't work, it's really irritating..."
With that, Chen Peipei showed a very angry expression.
"That road could have been circumvented back." The young man said with a smile, "It's just that it rained and flooded, which broke the road in front, and the road was built there, and it was blocked."
"That's right." Chen Peipei paused, "Then I was angry on the side of the road, and suddenly I saw a long and very special parrot, so I followed to take a look... I didn't expect to encounter a Taoist temple. , It's really predestined."
"It's very destined..." The young man smiled and grabbed a handful of corn in the pot, sprinkled it on the ground, and said to the three of them.
"When my master comes back, he has a way to remove the big stone blocking the road. During this time, do you want to visit our Taoist temple."
"When I go back and wait, I'll sit in the car and blow on the air conditioner. It's okay to come out to get some air." Chen Peipei blinked and said.
"Excuse me," Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi said.
Chen Peipei looked very happy. After sprinkling all the corn on the ground, the young man said to the three of them, "Please come with me!"
Seeing that Chen Peipei and Bai Xi were still standing behind Qin Shiyu, the young man looked down at the two big yellow dogs at his feet and smiled, "Don't be afraid, they won't attack people easily."
Chen Peipei blinked and did not refute, and Bai Xi followed Qin Shiyu and walked into the door under the leadership of this young man.
"Brother, are you a Taoist priest?" Chen Peipei asked curiously.
"I didn't formally become a monk. I just practiced with Master and Master here."
"Cultivation? So you are a practitioner!"
"Not yet! My master said that I may not be able to become a practitioner until early next year."
"Next year? It's now the end of August, and it will be next year soon, very soon."
"It looks like you are not like tourists from other places."
"Yes." Chen Peipei said with a big smile, "The three of us are colleagues. Today is a day off, so I want to come out and have a fun."
"I didn't expect to encounter a traffic jam..." the young man added for her.
"Right, right, right! It's rare to have an appointment to come out to play, I didn't expect to encounter such a bad thing on the road." Chen Peipei said.
Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi walked silently beside Chen Peipei, listened to her chatting with the young man, and looked left and right inside the Taoist temple.
The inside of the mound view is very clean. There are several fruit trees and a lot of flowers and plants in the yard, and the walls are covered with traces of time.
There seemed to be no one on the left or right of this place, and it was unbelievably quiet. At this moment, only the voices of Chen Peipei and the young man were floating in the air.
At this time, Bai Xi and Qin Shiyu heard the young man shout inside, "Master! A guest is coming!"
Not long after, a middle-aged man in his early forties in a short shirt walked out.
The young man introduced to the three of them, "This is my master."
"Good Dao..." Bai Xi and the three greeted them one after another.
"Hello." The middle-aged Taoist chief smiled and responded to the three of Bai Xi.
"Master, master, is he back?" the young man asked.
"I have come back, your master is back over the wall this time." The middle-aged Taoist said with a helpless expression.
"Huh? Going home over the wall?" Bai Xi was stunned after hearing this.
"Hey, Master, he is too old and he doesn't pay attention. What can I do if I twist my waist." The young man sighed.
"How could I twist my waist, I am in good shape!" An old man with his hands on his back came out of the room. He seemed to be over eighty years old, and he seemed a bit difficult to walk. The dusk was heavy.
"master."
"Master."
The old Taoist master glanced at his apprentices and grandchildren, then turned his head and asked, "Where do the little laymen come from?"
His voice is already hoarse, a bit vague, and this head-tilting movement often appears on some old people, because of the deterioration of his hearing, he can't hear him clearly when he is not close.
"We came from Rongcheng. This time we went to Qingxi Town to play, but we ended up here by accident." Qin Shiyu explained.
"Oh, oh..." The veteran nodded while listening, as if his reaction was a little slow, or maybe he heard it but didn't hear clearly, so after listening, he needs to think about it before he knows what Qin Shiyu said.
"Master, a big stone appeared on the dirt road under the mountain..." As soon as the young man opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the old master. "The stone you mentioned was encountered on my way back. It has been I solved it."
"Huh?" The three Bai Xi and the young man all showed surprised expressions.
"I'm hungry, go and prepare lunch!" After the old Daoist finished speaking, he went back to his room to rest under the company of the middle-aged Daoist.
"Unexpectedly, that big stone has been solved by my master." The young man smiled and said, "Are you on the road now, or you should take a look inside the gazebo before you go on the road."
"It's a rare encounter, let's take a look in the museum first!" Qin Shiyu decided, and Chen Peipei and Bai Xi nodded together.
"That's all right, you guys, I'm going to prepare lunch." The young man said.
"Do you need my help?" Chen Peipei changed her mind and smiled.
After that, Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi began to wander around in the view of the mound.
The two big yellow dogs who were originally guarding the door were chasing and playing. This is a very common sight in rural areas. In addition, Qin Shiyu also found many small animals in the courtyard, and they all got along harmoniously.
This is a relatively pure Taoist temple. The only temple enshrines several different Taoist gods. Although many of them have fallen into disrepair for a long time, they can be cleaned up.
After strolling around, they walked outside the kitchen, which was a small house in the backyard.
Chen Peipei and the trail leader were busy inside, and they could be seen through the dark window.
Qin Shiyu and Bai Xi could hear the voices of the two of them. At this time, they had to marvel at Chen Peipei’s ability to make friends. It seemed that no matter who they met, she could get along with others in a very short time, just like now. .
"How old is this Taoist temple?"
"It's said that it's almost three hundred years." The little Taoist said, "But I also listened to my master. I don't know if he is bragging."
"The traces of the years are very obvious. What your master said should be true. It may be a little conservative~EbookFREE.me~ It is said that more than two hundred years ago, there were a lot of people here, and there were several villages not far away. Therefore, the incense here is not bad, but after the war, the village was burned out, people ran away, and gradually fell." said the little road leader.
"Because it is remote, I was lucky to escape during the war. Later, because of the remoteness, no one came here, so it was about to be abandoned..."
"I think there are a few places here that seem to have just been renovated."
"My master repaired it a few days ago. He said he would not repair it again and wait until something goes wrong. It will cost a lot of money," said the little master.
"Will a lot of people come here normally?"
"Very rarely."
"Then you usually live..."
"We grow our own vegetables, raise some poultry ourselves, and feed ourselves is no problem."
