He was not there?
The journey from Beijing to Wutai Mountain was originally more than four hours. However, in such a rainy day, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran drove relatively slowly in case of any accidents. After all, at this time, the Qin Family was already in a mess. If any accidents happened, it would be really one disaster after another. Follow? Dream?
Therefore, it was already night when they arrived at Wutai Mountain. Qin Sheng and Qin Ran did not go to disturb Eldest Uncle. Although they were very anxious to see Eldest Uncle and persuade him to go back to Beijing, it was already night. It was impolite to disturb Eldest Uncle. So it was okay to wait for one more night.
Therefore, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran checked in at the Wutai Mountain Marriott Hotel. They would go to see Eldest Uncle tomorrow morning. Moreover, it was a peaceful place for Buddhism, so they had to be careful.
The Marriott Hotel was the best five-star hotel in the Wutai Mountain area. After checking in, they went to the restaurant for dinner. This trip to Wutai Mountain was relatively safe, but they were afraid that some people would really take the risk out of desperation. After all, this would solve all the problems once and for all.
During dinner, Chang Baji had arranged everything. He would take Brother Wu and Bach to guard the first half of the night, while Nangong and the other three people would guard the second half of the night. Although this was the Marriott Hotel, it was located in Wutai Mountain, so it was definitely not very safe. They had to be careful.
After dinner, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran chatted in the suite. Qin Ran said in a low voice, "Qin Sheng, we will leave at 8 o 'clock tomorrow morning. Auntie has told me the location of Eldest Uncle's temple. It is not in the main scenic area of Wutai Mountain, but in an ordinary temple some distance from here. We will go to see Eldest Uncle, and the others can wait outside. Try not to disturb those monks."
"Okay, sister, I will listen to you." Qin Sheng nodded silently. He had no impression of Eldest Uncle, because he was young at that time. However, he still had some impression of his sister, who was a few years older than him, but they had not contacted each other in recent years.
Qin Ran was not very confident. "I don't know if Eldest Uncle will go home with us. If he goes back, our situation will not be so difficult. Alas. "
"Sister, have you seen Eldest Uncle again?" Qin Sheng asked curiously. He knew that the First Aunt and the Old Man had met Eldest Uncle, but he didn't know how the relationship between his sister and Eldest Uncle was. If the relationship between his sister and Eldest Uncle was good, he might be able to persuade Eldest Uncle.
Qin Ran shook her head and said, "I haven't seen Eldest Uncle since he left Beijing more than 20 years ago. The old man told me that Eldest Uncle had disappeared like you. It was not until Auntie came back some time ago that I learned that Eldest Uncle had been a monk in Mount Wutai all these years. Auntie and Eldest Uncle also knew this situation, but they hid it from us."
"Oh, I see." Qin Sheng nodded silently. It seemed that there would be some danger tomorrow. He didn't know if his First Uncle, who had seen through the mortal world and entered Buddhism, still had feelings for the Qin family. If his First Uncle had already cut off his seven emotions and six desires and no longer cared about these trivial things in the secular world, it would be troublesome.
Qin Ran was silent for a while. Then, she changed the topic and said casually, "Qin Sheng, two days have passed. Uncle and Small Aunt should have known about what happened to our family. Why haven't they called us yet? Is it because they have made their attitude clear? If this is the case, I think we'd better not go to Uncle and Small Aunt. Since they have something difficult to say and it is not convenient for them to come out to help, we should not ask for trouble. "
"Well, based on the level and relationship between Uncle and Small Aunt, how can they not know?" Qin Sheng said meaningfully. To be honest, Qin Sheng had thought about this problem long ago and had been waiting for the Zhu family's call. At least a call with concern would do. After all, they were the nephew and niece of the Zhu family. Would they really watch others bully them?
Qin Ran could hear the disappointment in Qin Sheng's words, but she still smiled and comforted him. "Then let's wait for a while. I believe that Uncle and Small Aunt will not ignore us like this. If they really don't care about us, I will go to Grandma and reason with her. I don't believe it at that time."
Of course, Qin Ran was joking. Grandma was already so old. How could she disturb her grandma? If Grandma got the news and got too excited, and something happened to her, it would not be worth it.
Qin Sheng smiled and replied, "Well, Sister, it's getting late. Let's go to bed early."
After the sister and brother said good night to each other, they went back to their rooms to rest. After Qin Sheng took a shower, he called Lin Su. Since he came back yesterday, Lin Su did not disturb him. She only called him a few times on WeChat. Qin Sheng was busy and did not have time to reply. He knew that Lin Su must be worried about him.
Lin Su, who was far away in Shanghai, was still working overtime in the company. Qin Sheng left Shanghai because of the Qin Family's accident, which made Lin Su very uneasy these two days. Even though she went back so early, she could not fall asleep. She had been worried about Qin Sheng all the time. However, she knew that Qin Sheng was very busy now, and she could not help him, so she did not dare to disturb him.
Hearing the phone ringing, Lin Su frowned slightly. When she saw that it was Qin Sheng who called, she was very surprised. So she quickly picked up the phone and could not wait to ask, "Honey, are you okay?"
Hearing Lin Su's voice, Qin Sheng felt very relieved. He said softly, "Don't worry. Everything is fine. You can rest assured."
Lin Su knew that Qin Sheng was comforting her. How could he be fine after such a big accident happened? She estimated that the Qin Family had already been in a mess. Lin Su had no choice but to say, "Well, then take care of yourself. If anything happens, call me at any time."
"Well, I know. How about you? Are you at home or in the company?" Qin Sheng asked casually. He knew that Lin Su was a strong working woman. If she did not have him as her boyfriend, she would probably work overtime in the company every day.
Lin Su replied, "I'm still in the company. I have some things to deal with. I'll go home in a while."
After Qin Sheng heard that, as expected, he had no choice but to say, "No matter how much work you have, it won't be too late to do it tomorrow. Take care of yourself. I'm not in Shanghai, so you have to take care of yourself. Don't make me worry. If anything happens, go to Small Aunt. Don't bear it alone."
"Well, I know. Don't worry," Lin Su replied with some distress.
Qin Sheng did not say much. He just said, "Then I won't bother you anymore. I'm a little tired. I'll go to rest first. I still have something to do tomorrow morning."
After that, Qin Sheng hung up the phone with Lin Su. He was still somewhat worried about leaving Lin Su alone in Shanghai. After all, there were still some messes in Shanghai that had not been dealt with. If those people could not find out that he had gone to look for Lin Su, it would be somewhat troublesome. So Qin Sheng had already called Bao Fan in advance and asked him to take care of Lin Su in case anything happened.
In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone on Mount Wutai, Qin Sheng had already gotten up. If it were not for the special period, Qin Sheng really wanted to go out for a walk. After all, Mount Wutai was a place where outstanding people lived. After opening the balcony window, the fresh air instantly blew in, making people feel refreshed. After the rain, the weather today was especially good, making people feel very comfortable. Standing on the balcony, they could see the beautiful scenery of Mount Wutai in the distance. This time, they definitely did not have time to wander around. When there was a chance in the future, they would definitely come to Mount Wutai again.
After having breakfast, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran set out for the temple where their Eldest Uncle was. It was only a half-hour journey from here. They were not in a hurry, but they were somewhat uneasy. They did not know what would happen.
Half an hour later, the three cars finally found the temple where Qin Changxing was based according to the navigation. After the cars stopped, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran got out. Qin Sheng looked at the others behind him and said, "You wait outside. My sister and I will go in."
Chang Baji and the others nodded and did not say anything. They just quickly scattered around the temple to prevent people from taking advantage of the situation and sneaking in.
It was not until then that Qin Sheng and Qin Ran looked at the temple, which did not seem to have a lot of incense sticks, with great interest. Judging from the dilapidated building of the temple, it must have been there for some years. Compared with those famous temples in the main scenic area of Mount Wutai, this place was really a bit deserted. There were no tourists here. They did not know why their Eldest Uncle had become a monk here.
However, these were not the problems they considered. Perhaps it was because this place was relatively deserted that their Eldest Uncle had chosen this place. If it had been those temples in the main scenic area of Mount Wutai, their Eldest Uncle might not have liked them. After all, those temples were too busy, which lacked the tranquility of Buddhism.
After Qin Sheng and Qin Ran met each other, they walked into the temple slowly. This was the first time for the two generations of the Qin Family to meet each other after more than 20 years. They did not know what kind of scene it would be.
When Qin Sheng and Qin Ran walked to the gate of the temple, they were naturally stopped by the little monk who guarded the gate. The little monk said bluntly, "What's wrong? Are you here for our Eldest Master again?"
During this period of time, there had been many visitors to the Eldest Master. The little monk had long been used to it. He was really annoyed by these visitors. Consequently, when he saw these luxury cars, the little monk knew that they were here for the Eldest Master again. He did not know what had happened recently. Why had not many people come to the Eldest Master in the past few years?
However, the little monk was not stupid. From the clothes of these visitors, he knew that they were not ordinary people. He did not know what the Eldest Master had been doing before he became a monk. How did he know these people? As a matter of fact, another group of people came today. Fortunately, the Eldest Master was not here, which saved a lot of trouble.
"Eldest Master?" Qin Ran frowned and said. However, it seemed that the person he was talking about was her Eldest Uncle. Qin Sheng said politely, "Little Master, we are here for Master Qin Changxing. I don't know if he is here. Please inform him for us."
After hearing that, the little monk was somewhat happy. As expected, he had guessed correctly. It was because he knew that the Eldest Master's secular name was Qin Changxing. However, immediately after that, he said somewhat impatiently, "Eldest Master is not here. You'd better go back. Even if he is here, he probably won't see you."
This made Qin Sheng and Qin Ran somewhat surprised. Could it be that Eldest Uncle was really not here? However, they could hear the impatience of the little monk and thought that he was deliberately making things difficult for them. They had no choice but to tell the truth. "Little Master, we are Master Qin Changxing's niece and nephew. Something happened at home, so we came to Master Qin Changxing. Please inform him."
The little monk waved his hands and said casually, "I've already said that the Eldest Master is not here. Why don't you believe me? If you don't believe me, you can go in and look for him yourself. Anyway, our small temple is not so big. We can search through it in a few minutes. Let's go. "
After that, the little monk directly made way for Qin Sheng and Qin Ran. He did not stop them and indicated that they could go in and look for him themselves.
