Looking at the empty temple behind him, Ye Chen's heart was filled with endless ripples. He did not understand the meaning of the last sentence that the Taoist said to him.
Although the meaning of his words was easy to understand, every time Ye Chen wanted to explore the true meaning of the Taoist's words, he felt as if he had encountered some obstacles.
Ye Chen could not figure it out. He had no choice but to set foot on the road to Chang 'an again. Along the way, he had been thinking about the Taoist's words, but there was no result.
Moreover, Ye Chen searched his memory, but did not see any story about this Taoist in the story of Journey to the West. This made him somewhat puzzled, and he did not know who this Taoist was.
The winter road was very difficult to walk on. Ye Chen carefully stepped on the icy road. To prevent himself from falling, he tied a few stalks of hay to the soles of his shoes. Even so, it was not very useful to do so.
After falling down again, Ye Chen did not stand up for a long time. He sat on the ground and looked at the sky, wondering if there were really immortals in the world.
If there were, why could he not see the so-called Heavenly Palace at all? But if there were no immortals, how could he explain the Taoist in the morning?
Shaking his head, Ye Chen threw these thoughts to the back of his mind. He stood up, patted the snow off his butt, and continued to walk in the direction of Chang 'an.
A few days later, Ye Chen finally arrived outside Chang 'an. Looking at the magnificent city walls of Chang' an, he could not help but sigh that the Tang Empire had indeed shown a prosperous scene in its early days.
Ye Chen entered Chang 'an after passing through the inspection of the soldiers at the gate of Chang' an. Although there were still some traces of war left in the city, it did not affect the prosperity of Chang 'an.
The streets of Chang 'an were very wide. From time to time, soldiers and generals on horseback would pass by. On the side of the street, there were hurried people and some hawkers selling goods.
Chang 'an, which had just experienced a war, was now facing a drought. But even so, there were still many people in Chang' an, and the drought did not have much impact on the lives of the people.
At least, that was how Ye Chen saw it.
He slowly walked across the street in front of him and onto another street. In Ye Chen's memory, the vertically crisscrossed streets in Chang 'an divided the city into many alleys, where there were residences, government offices, temples, and so on.
What he was looking for now was the temple that Tang Seng had visited before he left — Hua Sheng Temple.
Ye Chen wandered around the city for an entire morning, but he did not have any clues. After all, he was not familiar with the place, and did not know the exact location of the Life Transforming Temple.
After asking around, Ye Chen walked for a few more hours and finally arrived outside the Life Transforming Temple. But for some unknown reason, the Life Transforming Temple's doors were closed at this moment, as if they didn't want to let any of their followers in.
Ye Chen knocked on the door of the Life Transforming Temple. A young monk opened the door and saw Ye Chen. "This benefactor, what can I do for you?" The young monk's voice was immature.
"I'm looking for Master Xuanzang. Is he in the Life Transforming Temple now?" Ye Chen smiled at the young monk, but the young monk shook his head. "Master Xuanzang has never been here."
"Never been here? Then where is he now? " Ye Chen scratched his head. He knew that he had come a little early. It seemed that Xuanzang had not yet come to the Life Transforming Temple to prepare for his journey to the west.
"I wonder if you can wait for a moment? I will call the abbot to answer this benefactor's doubts. " The young monk did not know where Xuanzang was, but it seemed that he did not want to neglect Ye Chen, so he could only bring out the abbot.
