At this moment, Xiao Yue was standing at the door, watching Wuji and Yuanchen Hao standing under the portrait of Lao Dan, while Bai Ginseng was kneeling in front of them.

And the tribute table beside them, the top was a mess, and the corner of the table was completely burned.

"You're back?" Seeing Wuchen, Wuji's tone softened slightly.

Wuchen bowed to him, "Yes, I wanted to come over to say hello to my senior brother, but I didn't expect to encounter such an encounter." Then he pinched his nose, waved his sleeves, and said to the white ginseng kneeling in the middle of the hall: "How do you serve your ancestor here, the smell is so bad, you don't know how to open the window to breathe." ”

"Yes, yes, I'm going to open the window. After Bai saw the dustless road chief, his trembling legs didn't tremble, and he quickly stood up and went to work.

Yuan Chenhao also saluted when he saw Wuchen, "I haven't seen my uncle for a long time, and I miss it very much." ”

"Xiao Chen is back, I just won't miss it, go up to my place to drink tonight, hahaha. As soon as Wuchen's voice fell, he heard Wuji coughing, so he hurriedly changed his words, "Medicinal wine, medicinal wine, I just brewed it, hahaha." ”

Yuan Chenhao smiled knowingly, "Uncle Xie, I must be there in the evening." ”

"En. He looked at Wuji with an angry face, looked at the situation in the hall again, and said with a smile: "I remember that the Yuanqing Palace has not been repaired for many years. This fire, it is estimated that God is reminding us. As the saying goes, if the old doesn't go, the new won't come, don't be angry, the course of self-cultivation and self-cultivation should be demonstrated to them in person. ”

When Wuji heard this, his beard curled, and he said coldly: "I have never been able to compare with you in this class." Now that you're back, it's up to you to take care of the aftermath here, and I'll go to self-cultivation. With that, he brushed his sleeves away.

However, Wuchen was not surprised to get used to his style, he looked around the hall, and then said: "Actually, it's just that the portrait of the ancestor is a little damaged, and the white tiger and the green cow are still intact, just go to the bottom of the mountain another day to find a painter to help repair it." “

Bai Shen knelt down in front of him when he heard this, and said with a cry: "Thank you, uncle, if it weren't for Uncle Shi's return, the disciple would not know what kind of punishment he would have to suffer." ”

Wuchen smiled and said, "It's all small things. But ah... He sighed and said earnestly: "Senior brother is also for your good, doesn't it mean that Master Yan is a high apprentice." In the future, you should be careful in doing things, and you should not be reckless. Uncle Shi can help you once, but he won't help you next time. ”

Bai Ginseng kowtowed on the ground three times, and replied: "The teachings of the master are remembered by Bai Ginseng. ”

"Well, kneel in front of Master Zu for an hour to plead guilty, and then clean up this place. He turned to Yuan Chenhao and said, "Let's go out and let him reflect on it." ”

"Yes, uncle. Yuan Chenhao glanced at the white ginseng, and his eyes were a little complicated.

The two of them walked to the door of the main hall, and Wuchen turned back to Bai Ginseng, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "When your master is angry, remember to make amends." ”

"Got it. Bai Ginseng knelt on the ground and bent even lower.

Xiao Yue couldn't bear it when she saw this, she felt that she had done all this by herself, but she didn't expect to let Bai Ginseng take the blame now.

Yuan Chenhao walked to the door of the main hall, saw her in a daze, and said: "I'm afraid that Bai Ginseng won't have time to prepare lunch at noon today, if you know how to cook, just help make it together." ”

"Well," Xiao Yue replied absentmindedly, just staring at the back of Bai Ginseng kneeling on the ground, and then he didn't even know when Yuan Chenhao and the others would leave.

After standing for a long time, Satsuki's apology reached its peak. She walked to the stone jar, took water from the wooden bucket, picked up the broom from the ground, and went into the main hall, ready to help clean up.

Bai Ginseng didn't expect Satsuki to help him, so he quickly stood up and grabbed the broom.

"Young Master Wen, let me do it myself. ”

Xiao Yue didn't speak, watching him snatch the broom away, and then went to collect the garbage on the burnt tribute table, silently helping on the side.

Bai Ginseng looked at her very gratefully, and didn't say much, and the two tacitly cooperated to clean up the hall.

At this time, it was already noon, and Bai Ginseng said to Xiaoyue: "Hard work, you go back to the house and have a good rest, and I will prepare lunch." ”

Xiao Yue smiled and said, "The two of them will do it faster, if you do it late, your master may blame you again." ”

Bai Ginseng nodded, agreeing with Satsuki's idea, "It's just that I'm going to trouble Childe again." ”

Xiao Yue felt very indebted to him in her heart, so she shook her head and said, "It's all a trivial matter, don't remember it." ”

The two went to the dining hall together, one under the stove to make a fire, and the other to cook on the stove.

Perhaps because the fire did not damage the main hall much this time, Bai Ginseng's timidity slowly subsided, and he began to show his chatty nature again.

In addition to teaching Xiaoyue to burn the fire at length, he began to complain about this fire.

"Although the door of this hall is open, in fact, there is very little wind blowing in, and the last time I walked on the water was also a lightning strike, today is really unlucky. ”

Xiao Yue had to be silent when she heard this, and kept adding firewood to the earthen stove.

"It's God's mercy, Uncle Wuchen is back, otherwise I would be miserable today. He sighed and said quietly, "Master is not here, and no one is helping me to say a word." ”

Xiao Yue suddenly remembered that before she remembered, Morning Star told her that the one who was called Ye Yueli was also in Qingshan. So, she pretended to be curious and asked, "Master, I don't know what your master is called, and where is it?"

"My master, I don't even want to mention it. Bai Ginseng wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and while stir-frying the white potatoes in the pot, he looked at Xiao Yue's expectant eyes, and then said slowly: "My master's Taoist name is Zhumu, but he is not in the temple all the year round, so he left me here to take care of his ancestor." ”

"Not in the temple, then where is he?" After today's walking, Xiao Yue can be sure that this night moon should not be in the Taoist temple, but she still doesn't know how many Taoist priests there are in this Qingshan Taoist temple.

Bai Ginseng drained the boiled rice with bamboo strips, put it in the steaming grid, and said with a bitter face: "Master told me that the Tao is not in the book, not in the words, but in the world, so he went down the mountain and wandered. ”

"Oh, I see. Xiao Yue nodded, thinking that it was no wonder that she hadn't heard Zhushan mention this person, and just thought about how to ask him about Ye Yueli, but Bai Shen continued: "But I think Master was instigated by others. ”

After that, he flattened his mouth and said disapprehantly: "Anyway, the ancestor doesn't like it." ”

"Others?" Xiao Yue asked curiously, "Who is so powerful?"
