Many believers came here to ask for divination. Since the divination was so accurate, it was hard for the incense to not be popular.
Immortal Liru was over seventy years old, but to outsiders, he had white hair and a youthful complexion. He was hale and hearty, and his steps were steady.
"Madam Dou" had visited Taoist temples during holidays, but those temples were more like tourist attractions. Many Taoist priests were also there, and they did not look like otherworldly masters at all. In contrast, the Qingxue Temple was much quieter. The believers and Taoist priests who came and went were pious …
She calmed down and followed Dou Xi into the Taoist temple.
"What do you think of this place, Madam?"
The woman was slow to react. She smiled and said, "It's very good. It's not grand, but the atmosphere is very comfortable."
After that, she looked around curiously, as if everything was new to her.
Dou Xi was speechless.
The two entered the main hall. The temple master, Immortal Liru, was also there. He was explaining the divination of a believer in a low voice.
When Immortal Liru was done, Dou Xi stepped forward.
After greeting each other, Dou Xi explained the purpose of his visit and asked about the requirements for the vow.
Immortal Liru glanced at "Madam Dou". He frowned slightly at first, but then relaxed.
"Your wife's complexion is excellent and her aura is strong. It seems that she has passed the hurdle and will recover in a few days."
Immortal Liru summoned a Taoist boy and asked him to take "Madam Dou" to burn incense elsewhere. The latter could not have asked for more and walked briskly. Hearing the sound of "Immortal" falling on the ground gradually fade away, Dou Xi's face suddenly darkened.
"Immortal —"
Immortal Liru said, "According to the divination, your wife won't survive the cold. Now that the heavens have blessed her, she should be fine."
"Immortal, this one … is definitely not the real Zhuo Jing. He's not some mountain spirit or wild monster!" Dou Xi said, "My wife was born in a poor and illiterate family. But this one is different … His words and actions are very different from my wife's. Immortal, do you have a way to get rid of this demon?"
Dou Xi did not care about the mountain spirit or wild monster. He just wanted his wife back.
According to Immortal Liru's previous assertion, his wife would not leave this world for long. But he could not tolerate a stranger occupying her body!
"Don't worry, Layman Dou." Immortal Liru comforted Dou Xi. "This is your wife's fortune. It's not a bad thing."
Dou Xi was surprised. "What do you mean?"
"Now, this young householder is a lucky star," Perfected Liru said with a smile. "I hereby congratulate Householder Dou and his wife for growing old together."
Dou Xi was stunned. "Dao Master, do you mean … my wife will be back soon?"
Adept Liu Ru said, "If I'm not wrong, that Little Lucky Star can only stay here for twelve hours."
In any case, he could be considered as half a savior. Don't try to crush him to death so easily.
Dou Xi's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally calmed down.
Not a mountain spirit, but a lucky star?
He was glad that he didn't act impulsively. Otherwise, things would have really gone south.
Naturally, 'Madam Dou' was unaware of the conversation between Dou Xi and Enlightened Master Liru.
She sent the Daoist boy away. Seeing that there was no one around, she instantly let loose her natural instincts. She wished she could kick away the wooden clogs. These things were really difficult to wear.
"It smells so good —"
She tiptoed on one side of the courtyard wall. She could clearly smell the fragrance of flowers drifting in from outside the courtyard, but she couldn't see the scenery.
Looking left and right, she saw that there was no one around. She took off the wooden clogs and climbed up the rockery. Indeed, there was a beautiful scenery outside the courtyard.
"These Daoist priests really know how to enjoy life. It's such a blessing to live here in retirement. It would be even better if I had a cell phone and wifi." As someone who couldn't live without a cell phone 24/7, if not for the novelty of transmigration, she really couldn't stand the time without one.
In the distance, Dou Xi was speechless.
She really had the temperament of a child.
He waited for a while for the other party to climb down to her heart's content before calling out to her.
'Madam Dou' didn't know what to do, but when she heard Dou Xi say that the matter was settled and they could go home, she believed him.
On the way back, Dou Xi saw that she was extremely curious about the market outside, so he found an excuse to take her for a stroll.
'Madam Dou' mumbled softly.
"A good man who's willing to buy things for his wife. What a rare and endangered species —"
Dou Xi was indeed a very good person. No matter what small item she fancied, he would happily pay for it.
Of course, she didn't buy anything expensive. Most of them were ornaments, sachets, or snacks from the stalls.
In ancient times, the market was poor and there weren't many goods. Women only shopped for the atmosphere, and they got bored after a while.
Dou Xi saw that she looked a little tired, so he offered to take a break at the teahouse.
"What are you thinking about, Madam?"
Dou Xi saw that she stirred the tea but didn't drink it, looking absent-minded.
Indeed, the woman didn't drink tea. Tea in this era was a dark cuisine. All kinds of seasonings were used to boil it, and the taste was very strange.
"I'm thinking about Feng Ren's declaration of war …"
Her mouth moved faster than her brain. When she realized what she had said, she hurriedly tried to salvage the situation. She silently held her vest tightly and looked pitiful. The salted fish in the live broadcast room was angry that she didn't fight for it. It wasn't easy for her to survive until now, but this Lucky Emperor actually blew up her own vest!
Dou Xi ignored the way the woman addressed Feng Ren, and his sharp ears heard the word 'declaration of war'.
His heart skipped a beat. He suddenly understood something and almost dropped the teacup.
"I didn't say anything just now —"
Dou Xi looked at her. Although it was a familiar face, her expression was unusually unfamiliar. This person was more lively than his own daughter.
Looking at her, Little Lucky Star was really young.
"What did Madam say just now?"
Dou Xi looked puzzled, as if he really didn't hear anything he shouldn't have.
The woman coughed softly. "I didn't say anything just now."
Dou Xi accompanied her as they strolled to many places outside. The sun gradually darkened the horizon.
After returning to the residence, Dou Xi asked the kitchen to prepare a rather sumptuous meal.
The chef in the kitchen muttered in a low voice.
"It's not the New Year, could it be that something good happened?"
Although Dou Xi was rich, he wasn't extravagant and extravagant. As a son of a peasant family, his style was still very simple.
Now, however, he was serving a distinguished guest. The kitchen staff were naturally surprised.
Dou Xi saw that the woman's expression was as usual, and her dining etiquette was also good. He secretly thought to himself, Lucky Star's living conditions in the past must not be poor.
Unbeknownst to him, the woman proudly posted a bullet screen in the live broadcast room.
"There's still half an hour to 12 hours. I didn't blow up my vest, isn't I amazing?"
The salted fish all gave her likes. Amazing, amazing.
Jiang Pengji was speechless.
Forget it, let's not expose her.
Dou Xi didn't mean to hurt anyone, so there shouldn't be too much to worry about.
In fact, Jiang Pengji didn't have to worry about the woman.
"Dream of a Thousand Years" was a welfare activity, so naturally, there were sound protective measures.
Apart from the necessary prompts, once the participants were threatened, they would be sent back in advance.
If the experiencer did anything that would destroy the bad guy, the experience would also be forcibly ended.
Not everyone who participated in the activity was so unlucky to meet Feng Ren and Dou Xi, two shrewd people, right off the bat.
