47. Old home temple

After that, Chen Xiao and Ji Mingzhu did not appear again for a month.

It is not uncommon to see earthquakes, fires, epidemics, and extreme weather conditions in a certain place...... But the world is so big, Ye Ze can't figure out whether this is a sign that the God of Calamity has been awakened or just his heart.

The cultivators who had been working to prevent the God of Calamity from being awakened had really begun to gather together to study how to find another god who could help them. Gu Mingfeng had been passive and inactive before, but later he was moved by his brother's words, and he also began to help a little bit for his brother's face.

Xu Jie took advantage of Chen Xiao's unknown location to quickly dig into the corner of the wall - he didn't dig anything else, he just set up a studio by himself and took Xu Yu away.

He explained to Ye Ze that it was because he must have been exposed that he couldn't get along under Mingzhu, and it didn't matter to him, it was a big deal to go back to the mountain where the Sanqing Sword Sect was located to raise chickens, but he couldn't cause Xu Yu to lose his job, so he set up a studio, and the two were ready to go it alone.

He asked Ye Ze if he wanted to join, and he could easily transfer Ye Ze's contract to his studio. Ye Ze thought that it would definitely not be appropriate to let Ye Lingyue disappear like this, and Chen Xiao also said that he would not appear again, so he agreed-anyway, under Xu Jie, it was not a matter of saying that he wanted Xu Jie to hide himself?

Song Xuran was very happy, because Ye Ze finally stopped, and began to study honestly and diligently.

As an ideological worker in an organization, he is grateful.

However, within two days of relief, one Saturday morning, at half past seven, there was a knock on the door of Song Shen's house - the doorbell of his house had been broken for a long time, because there were usually no guests visiting, and Song Xuran had not repaired it.

Ye Ze played games with his mobile phone until half past three in the morning before going to sleep, when he heard the knock on the door, he was about to cry, and muttered: "Who is this......"

Song Xuran heard that his tone was wrong, sat up and touched the top of his head to soothe, "Sleep yours, I'll take a look." Then he put on his pajamas, got up, walked to the hallway, and opened the door.

There was a familiar man standing outside the door, Gu Mingfeng.

Gu Mingfeng was still holding a cardboard box the size of an instant noodle box in his hand, looking like he had been swept out of the house.

Song Xuran turned sideways to let people in with an expressionless face, and asked someone to sit on the sofa with an expressionless face.

Gu Mingfeng held the box and shivered for no reason.

Song Xuran went to close the bedroom door tightly, then sat on another sofa and said to Gu Mingfeng: "Ye Ze is still sleeping, you wait here for a while." ”

Uncle Gu said in his heart that young people nowadays don't have a little hospitality, but looking at Song Xuran, somehow he didn't dare to express a little dissatisfaction.

Song Xuran thought for a while, and stuffed the remote control into Gu Mingfeng's hand: "You can watch TV, don't make the sound louder." ”

Then he stood up with a blank face: "I'll go and pour you a cup of tea." ”

You can hug Xiaoye and sleep all morning, and the beautiful weekend morning is like this.

Song Shen expressed his displeasure.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Ye Ze was not called up by Song Xuran until ten o'clock in the morning.

During this period, Gu Mingfeng had already drunk a cup of strong tea into boiled water and congratulated him twice, and repeatedly hinted that Song Xuran could call Ye Ze up, but Song Xuran was unmoved.

Its mental activity is roughly as follows:

Gu Mingfeng: I really have important things, I'm so anxious, you, a mortal, don't know how serious the situation we are facing, and how important our affairs are.

Song Xuran: In my opinion, 99% of the things in this world are not important, and the things related to you are 100% unimportant, and the most important thing is to let Ye Ze sleep well at the current time.

From this, we can find that an important reason why people hate each other and cannot understand each other is that they all regard each other as stupid mortals.

Ye Ze came out of the bedroom and saw Lao Song, who was calmly wearing headphones and reading the latest issue of "The Economist" with a pad, while Gu Mingfeng was sitting on the small sofa at the other end, with a face full of suffering and green eyes.

After he saw Ye Ze come out, he immediately held his small cardboard box like a treasure, and turned out everything for Ye Ze to show - among them, there were jade talismans, ancient books, and murals under rubbing, each of which gave people a considerable sense of age.

Gu Mingfeng explained to Ye Ze the origin of everything while telling him about what had happened these daysβ€”Gu Mingfeng was hindered by his brother's face and began to help those cultivators find another helpful god who could fight against the God of Calamity. At first, he thought that this plan was extremely stupid, but he didn't expect that the hard work would pay off, and they would really find clues, and Gu Mingfeng gradually became convinced that there should indeed be a god by their side in this world.

Gu Mingfeng said: "Ye Ze, the strength of your master is very peculiar, when you were in the place of sacrifice of the God of Calamity, only your light could still shine, according to my inference, the power of your master should also come from a god." So I would like to ask you if you have any clues. ”

Ye Ze has no clue, his only clue is Sanbai, Sanbai said that it is just a magical bird that has been innocently contributing to the harmony and stability of the world.

Ye Ze: "You are not a bird, you always treat yourself as a bird, pretending to be very cute." ”

Sanbai: "...... Well, I'm a natural spirit being! Isn't that even more powerful? ”

The only mission of the natural spirit creature Bai is to find a host, help the host gain power, and then maintain the balance of the world with the efforts of the host, and he doesn't know anything about gods and demons. Sanbai said that it only knew that the sources of the hosts' power were all in this world, such as feng shui, thunder, lightning, sun, tides, geothermal, etc., and did not know the specific source of Ye Ze's power.

Ye Ze could only tell Gu Mingfeng that he didn't know anything, but he would study the materials he brought to see if he could find any clues.

Gu Mingfeng had no choice but to return disappointed, and repeatedly told Ye Ze to contact him in time after he had news.

Song Xuran's family life is very regular, and every Saturday afternoon every two weeks is a fixed time for Song Xuran to video chat with his parents to report his recent situation. Song Xuran sat at the dining table with a notebook and had a video call with his parents, while Ye sat next to him to study the photo books and albums brought by Gu Mingfeng. There is a pile of photographs of temples, altars, shrines and other places in various places.

The adults of both families knew that Ye Ze and Song Xuran were together, and Song's mother inevitably asked her son after caring about her son, "How is Xiao Ze?" and "Is he with you?"

Song Xuran responded: "Yes." ”

Then he turned around and shouted Ye Ze: "Ye Ze, my mother is looking for you." ”

Ye Ze leaned over with the photo in his hand and said to the camera in a proper manner: "Hello, Auntie." ”

Mother Song smiled, shushed the cold and asked a lot of warmth as usual, and then explained to Song Xuran and said, "Xuran, you take good care of the rules." Then he turned to Ye Ze: "Then then, if that kid wants to bully you, you will sue Aunt SΓΉ." ”

Ye Zelian should be.

Song Xuran looked helpless: "Mom, where do I dare to bully him." ”

At this time, Song's mother happened to see the photo in Ye Ze's hand, and her expression was slightly surprised: "Zeze, where did you get the photo?" It seems to be his father's hometown. ”

Song Xuran's father was born in a remote mountain village, and he was admitted to university by his own efforts, and stayed in school to teach, marry a wife and have children, and there are no relatives in his hometown, and he has not returned to his hometown since Song Xuran was born. Song Xuran naturally never went back, and Ye Ze never heard the other party mention that place.

Song's mother still only went back to Song's father once not long after she got married, and at this time she looked at the photos carefully, both firm and a little uncertain, and specially called Song's father over: "Old Song, do you see if this is your hometown?" I don't quite remember, but I remember the temple – you remember, right? At that time, we had no children, and when we returned to our hometown, we went to the temple to worship and made a wish that I wanted a baby, and soon after I came back, I became pregnant, and we had life. I was always thinking about taking Xuran back to my hometown to see it and go to make a vow by the way, but I didn't care about it when I got busy after that......"

Dad Song looked at the photo and said for sure that it was there.

Ye prevaricated and said that the photo was taken by his classmates when they were traveling.

Father Song became proud again when he heard this: "My hometown is indeed a good place, the mountains and rivers are good, and this temple has a history of thousands of years, and it is built like a grotto, and it has been well preserved for so many years." It's just that the transportation is not convenient, the economy is not up, life is not as convenient and comfortable as in the city, and people like me who have no relatives left in their hometown are not willing to go back...... Hey, there's a lot going on at school, but you and Xuran can go back and see it when you have time on vacation......"

Ye Ze looked down at the photo in his hand, indeed as Father Song said, a small cave-like temple was dug out of the mountain, and only a statue of a god was enshrined in it, and the appearance had been eroded by wind and rain to the point of blur, and only the general outline could be seen - tall, with a stout tail that had been worn out, and the overall feeling was quite evil, which was quite different from the appearance of the gods and goddesses in traditional myths and legends such as the God of Wealth, the Jade Emperor, and other gods who relied on the image of Confucian emperors and officials in the world as the prototype. It is even more different from the more common Buddhist cultural temples in China.

Ye Ze remembered what Gu Mingfeng had said in the morning when he explained to him the origin and purpose of various materials:

"As I told you before, a god and demon treasure was born just a few years ago, so there is a good chance that there is a god around us who has been awakened - not intentionally awakened like the god of calamity, but unintentionally. The places in these pictures are places where we judge the possible awakening of the gods. God is supposed to retain a trace of consciousness in the place of his awakening, so if we can find this place for sure, there is hope that we will find a way to communicate with God. ”
