Chapter 11: Farewell

Three days passed, and in these three days, Zhang Daoran went into the water or patrolled the mountains every day, and the water mines around the island in the middle of the lake were clearly felt.

With the magic power of a fish in water, Zhang Daoran has no problem staying in the water even if he stays in the water for a day. As a result, Zhang Daoran's recipe expanded from the fish in the lake to the lotus root at the bottom of the lake, as well as the lotus pod on the surface of the lake.

With a few sections of lotus roots and a large bag of lotus pods, Zhang Daoran ended the day swimming in the water.

"Lotus root can be made into a cold dish, which can be fried and eaten. Lotus pods can be made into lotus seed soup......"

For eating, Zhang Daoran has made great progress during this time. In the time when there is no shortage of food and drink, how to eat is far better than what to eat. Let Zhang Daoran have the joy of turning over and singing serfs.

After taking a shower and putting on the only robe that was a little shabby, Zhang Daoran shook his head and smiled: "It seems that it is necessary to go out......"

The Taoist temple has an elegant environment and is very good in all aspects. The only drawback is that it is far away from the circle of human life, not only is there no modern electrical appliances, but even there is a shortage of useful clothes.

But then, Zhang Daoran sighed gloomily: "Even if you go out, what if you are poor, you are poor......"

The Taoist temple is very poor, and now all the finances of the Taoist temple add up, except for some food, even if it is a candle for lighting, these days are too extravagant, only two are left.

"In the past few days, I've been making a free magic stick, and I forgot if I should collect money?"

Immediately, Zhang Daoran shook his head: "Li Kuan's family is not thin on me, and it would be a bit too much to collect their money again..."

It can be said that in Zhang Daoran's most difficult time, Li Kuan and his wife solved the problem that Zhang Daoran almost starved to death. This is a kind of kindness, although one report is repaid, Zhang Daoran first saved Li Kuan's life, and Zhang Daoran did not think of receiving their money.

"Forget it, it's much better now than before, money, there will be later. ”

At this time, a burst of aroma came, and the lotus seed soup was ready. Zhang Daoran took out the pickled lotus root and put it on the stone table.

"The Taoist ......"

At this time, Fang Ting and Li Dazhuang came together. As soon as she reached the top of the mountain, Fang Ting began to shout loudly.

Glancing helplessly at the lotus seed soup on the stone table, Zhang Daoran muttered: "Immeasurable Tianzun, this afternoon meal is going to be postponed again......"

"Ah......" Fang Ting came uninvited and directly entered the Taoist temple, making Zhang Daoran think about whether there should be a Buddhist rule, and women and children are not allowed to enter? Where did Fang Ting know Zhang Daoran's thoughts, and when she walked into the Taoist and saw the lotus seed soup on the stone table, her eyes lit up: "The Taoist is eating? lotus seed soup, so fragrant......

"What is the matter with the monks coming to the Taoist temple?"

Zhang Daoran's tone was a little stiff, now he was hungry and panicked, how could he have time to argue with Fang Ting, a person who was skeptical of himself and was not a believer?

"We are here to say goodbye to the Taoist, and tomorrow morning, Tingting and I will return to the provincial capital......"

Fang Ting's eyes stayed on the lotus seed soup, and her saliva almost flowed out, Li Dazhuang scratched his head and said.

"Oh... I wish you all a smooth journey, and it's time for you to eat......"

Zhang Daoran nodded to show that he understood, and at the same time told them that there are no guests here, so you can go.

Li Dazhuang was not stupid, he understood the meaning of Zhang Daoran's words, and was just about to open his mouth to call Fang Ting to leave, but Fang Ting said with hope on his face: "Dao Chief's lotus seed soup is pure and natural, can we follow Dao Elder here to fast?"

Li Dazhuang was dumbfounded, what is so delicious about lotus seed soup? What Li Dazhuang didn't know was that he had lived by the lake since he was a child, and he was tired of eating lotus seed soup. Fang Ting had eaten lotus seed soup before, it was all a product of industrialization, where had she ever eaten pure and natural? So, Fang Ting was aroused by her appetite.

"Dao Chief, I'm sorry..."Li Dazhuang whispered in Fang Ting's ear: "Go back and let my mother make it for you, we have a lot of lotus here..."

Fang Ting turned sideways without a trace, frowned, and looked away from the lotus seed soup with some reluctance.

"Alas......" Seeing Fang Ting's subconscious movements, Zhang Daoran knew that there was no possibility between Fang Ting and Li Dazhuang. If there was still a marriage red line at the beginning, there was no involvement, but now there is no such thing at all.

"Li Dazhuang, a stupid child, has not yet realized it...... No wonder I've been a single dog for 30 years. ”

Zhang Daoran felt a little sorry, Li Dazhuang's fate is closely related to Fang Ting, maybe when Fang Ting has a showdown with Li Dazhuang, it will be when Li Dazhuang returns to his hometown. Now the relationship between Fang Ting and Li Dazhuang is very strange, Fang Ting obviously has no feelings for Li Dazhuang, but Li Dazhuang has a heart tied to Fang Ting's body.

There is a causal connection between the two people, as for what Zhang Daoran is still unclear.

"Female layman, Sanqingguan only has a bowl and a pair of chopsticks, and she can't fast. Since the two of you are leaving, Poor Dao gave the female benefactor a word, you must leave a line in everything, don't be too absolute, it will be good for you and others......"

Intentionally or unintentionally, his gaze fell on Li Dazhuang, and Zhang Daoran said leisurely.

Li Dazhuang was in the clouds, Fang Ting, as the person concerned, her face remained unchanged, but her pupils shrunk, and she was a little surprised in her heart, and smiled slightly: "I didn't understand what the Taoist chief said." Da Zhuang, let's go......"

"Whether you understand it or not, only you know. There's only so much I can do..."

Shaking his head, Zhang Daoran sat at the stone table and did not mean to get up to send him off. As soon as he picked up the bowl, he suddenly looked shocked.

I saw a black light flashing above the heads of Li Dazhuang and Fang Ting, this black light was not seen by others, Zhang Daoran, who opened the eyes of the sky, could see it clearly, only to see a bus speeding by on the national highway, the driver's eyes were half-open and half-closed, obviously fatigue driving, a semi-trailer truck in front of him suddenly turned around, and the bus overturned on the provincial road...... A semi-trailer from behind also rushed and crashed directly into the bus......

There was some struggle in his eyes, he could see the blessings and misfortunes in the world clearly, and he could seek good fortune and avoid evil, Zhang Daoran didn't know how to tell Fang Ting about it. Gritting his teeth, Zhang Daoran said secretly: "Dozens of lives on the bus are all ...... in my own thoughts."

got up directly, spread his feet, Zhang Daoran went down the mountain directly, and chased after Li Dazhuang and Fang Ting: "The two laymen wait a while......"

"What do you command?"

The two of them turned, up and down, looking cautious on the narrow steps of the mountain road.

These steps don't have any security, and there is no feeling when you go up the mountain, and when you go down the mountain, it's like stepping on the clouds, looking down, like standing in the sky, without a certain amount of courage, you will definitely be terrified.

Zhang Daoran didn't look at the faces of the two people, and asked: "There is a saying in the poor road, the two laymen must remember, it is related to the lives of dozens of people...... Seeing that a suspicious look flashed on the faces of Li Dazhuang and Fang Ting, Zhang Daoran said: "You will take the bus to the provincial capital, and you will take the provincial road." It's just that you have to pay attention to the bus driver and don't let him take a nap, and you must slow down when you encounter a semi-trailer...... Be sure to remind bus drivers not to overtake. ”

"Also, if you can go back safely, you may be able to see your loved ones for the last time......"

......

"Originally, I still believed in this Taoist master, but now I don't believe it..."

Paddled on the boat, Li Dazhuang glanced at the top of the mountain: "We are going to take the train this time......"

Fang Ting also had a look of disappointment on her face, sat at the stern of the boat, and never looked back: "In order to show off, this Taoist chief is afraid that he will smash his own job." ”

It's not just a smashing of the rice bowl, if Fang Ting hadn't been afraid of Zhang Daoran, he would have two brushes, and the ear scrapers would have gone up to hit the ...... If she hadn't taken into account that she was a woman, she would lose her image like a shrew scolding the street, Fang Ting would have scolded Zhang Daoran.

What is it that if you can get home safely, you will be able to see your loved ones for the last time?

Curse people?

I came with respect, but I finally went back with a belly of fire.
