Chapter 9: Reunion (1)

A few days later, the party arrived on the shores of Lake Loga, and in front of a boulder that looked like two men joining hands, Kautilia ordered an altar to be erected, and Amir led his people to perform sacrifices to the two strangely shaped boulders. Paya told Daoyan that legend has it that the two boulders were incarnated after the goddess signed a contract with the leader of the 'Bai Zhen', and that the moon god sealed them with the village where they lived at the bottom of Lake Luo Jia in order to protect the corpses of the 'Bai Zhen' people, and sent a huge divine fish to protect them.

At night, he sat on a rock by the lake and watched Paya jump around like a happy deer chasing the flickering fireflies around her. After a while, Paya's hands slowly made a lotus shape, her right leg was slightly bent, and her left leg was coiled on her right knee, as she twisted her body slightly, the fireflies around her immediately formed several chains of light and swirled and swayed with her graceful figure, and Paya's body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gilded aura, just like the mythical Shiva dancing in the flames. Dao Yan was enjoying Paya's graceful dancing when he noticed a fat 'monk' wearing a hat and a monk's robe walking towards them in the distance. Doyan then got up and walked over to Paya, took her hand, and held her back. Paya was about to ask what had happened to him when he heard a 'whoosh' arrow and Singh whistled as he ran towards them from behind a tree not far away. Seeing that the 'monk' did not heed Singh's warning, he continued to walk steadily towards them, and a large number of guards from the camp arrived with torches, including Cortilia.

"Stop!" Singh shouted.

When he was still about fifty paces away from Daoyan, the 'monk' suddenly stopped, quickly untied his scarf, revealed a hairy nose and sniffed carefully in the air, and suddenly threw his hat back, and quickly rushed towards everyone. Singh was about to order the guards to release arrows, but was quickly stopped by Dao Yan, and then Dao Yan also strode towards the 'Mao monk'. Singh took out the 'eagle claws' and ran with Dao Yan, but after running a few steps, he saw Dao Yan hugging the 'Mao monk'.

In the tent of Dao Yan and Paya, 'Tai Chi' was gobbling up all kinds of fruits and pastries into his mouth, Dao Yan asked Singh to go and get some more, and Paya curiously stroked 'Tai Chi' Yuan Dun Dun's lovely ears.

"What a miracle." Cortilia was amazed after hearing the Tao Yan tell everyone about his previous experience with 'Tai Chi'.

"This proves that Ayan is indeed a noble person sent by the moon god to bless my people." Amir said happily.

'Tai Chi' licked his palms and asked Dao Yan to ask him a few questions. Katilia told 'Tai Chi' to ask directly, he knew sign language, so 'Tai Chi' asked if he would go and get the 'Five Elements Lock' tomorrow. Cortilia replied yes, 'Tai Chi' nodded, reached out from the thick fur on his neck and took out the ring that Morris had left for Dao Yan and handed it to Dao Yan, it turned out that Dao Yan had always worn this ring around the neck of 'Tai Chi', and it had been kept by 'Tai Chi' because it was too hastily separated. Doyan put the ring on his hand, but Katilia suggested that Doren should reverse the front of the ring if he wanted to wear it, otherwise he might get into unnecessary trouble. Remembering the words of Morris's letter, he thought that this guru really knew everything, and accepted Cortilia's advice. After everyone left, only Dao Yan, Paya and 'Tai Chi' were left in the tent, and Dao Yan asked 'Tai Chi' how he had spent the past few years. After listening to the "Tai Chi" lecture on the Tao Yan, it turned out that Peng Yingyu was wounded after the failure of the assassination operation that day, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Yuan army and fled into the dense forest, seeing that a large number of Yuan troops came one after another, when they were cornered, "Tai Chi" appeared and took him to the back cliff, the two climbed to the bottom of the mountain along the vines, and after the Yuan army withdrew, "Tai Chi" returned to the "Zunsheng Tower" but could not find any trace of the Tao. After 'Taiji' told Peng Yingyu about this, Peng Yingyu analyzed that Dao Yan should not have been killed, so he decided to find a place to hide first, and then contact the rebels in various places to find out Dao Yan's whereabouts. Due to Peng Yingyu's leg injury and inconvenience, he had to be carried by 'Tai Chi', and the two went out day and night, crossing mountains and mountains to Xinghua South Shaolin Temple to recuperate, and then Peng Yingyu let 'Tai Chi' stay in Jiulian Mountain to wait for the news of Dao Yan and teach it to practice martial arts every day. A few days ago, 'Tai Chi' felt the 'call' of the goddess, so he said goodbye to Peng Yingyu and came here.

Dao Yan had learned from Hong Yuanxuan that his master had successfully escaped from danger, but he didn't expect that it was 'Tai Chi' who saved him, and he had been worried that 'Tai Chi' would be in danger due to the search of the Yuan army, and now that all worries had been eliminated, he was in a good mood. 'Tai Chi' stood up to leave, Dao Yan and Paya asked it to stay in the tent to rest together, and 'Tai Chi' told Dao Yan that this was the tradition of their 'Bai Zhen' clan since ancient times - to guard the safety of the 'goddess', and it was too hot in the tent, and it had become accustomed to meditating and resting outdoors in the past few years of practicing martial arts. Dao Yan and Paya had no choice but to rely on it, so they also turned off the lights and rested.

Early the next morning, Dao Yan and his party drove a wooden boat to the center of the lake. Cortilia took a drop of blood from each of Paya's fingertips and fused the two drops into a wooden bucket containing several white fish that had just been fished out of the lake, and the fish became very excited as soon as they came into contact with the blood. Cortilia poured the fish into the water, and they soon swam in all directions. After a while, I saw a wave appear on the calm lake, and slowly, the back of a fish the size of a wooden boat came out of the water, and then a huge fish head appeared, and the big fish stared at Paya and 'Taiji' with eyes as big as a wheel, and slowly circled the boat before opening its mouth. When Tai Chi reappeared from the mouth of the big fish, I saw that its neck and four wrists were white, soap, green, red and yellow with five rings of different colors and engraved with strange ornaments. 'Tai Chi' jumped into the water and stretched out his palm to pat the jaw of the big fish, and the big fish slowly dived into the water and disappeared. 'Tai Chi' swam freely and then jumped up from the water, gently landed on the boat, grinned, Dao Yan hurriedly turned around to block Paya, a splash of water will be all over the water except Paya, see Dao Yan pounced on it, 'Tai Chi' calmly leaned back, 'poof' and fell into the water again, when it appeared again, it was cute and cute on its back and spit out a mouthful of lake water from its mouth, Paya was amused by it, and Cortilia also smiled and dusted off the water splash on his body and sailed back to the shore.
