In the north of Rongcheng in Fujian Province, there is a lotus mountain, and there is a small Taoist temple on the mountain, which has the same name as the mountain, called the Lotus Temple.

To say that the scale is not large, it is obviously a very euphemistic statement. In fact, it has a floor area of less than 300 square meters, and there is only one main hall in a small courtyard, and the brick houses on the side are obviously built later.

The brick house is a bungalow, only a single storey, but there are three rooms, and the door is closed at this time, and there is no reason to see why.

However, Ren Ning guessed in his heart that these three bungalows should be the residence of the Taoist priest in Guanzhong.

Well, in fact, you don't have to guess, this is obvious, and there are no other buildings, where can Taoist priests live if they don't live here?

Ren Ning took his eyes off the bungalow, stepped into the main hall in the courtyard, put down the backpack on his body, and didn't pay attention to which god was enshrined in the hall, so he bowed his head and bowed.

At this time, an old Taoist priest who looked to be in his seventies walked over, looked at the bag beside Ren Ning with an excited face, and asked in a trembling voice, "Master...... Senior brother, are you back? ”

As his words fell, Ren Ning's backpack surged up as if something was about to rush out, and in the next second, the backpack flew directly and fell into the arms of the old Taoist.

Ren Ning was a little confused, although he was worshipping God, but his backpack was beside him, how could he not know the movement of the backpack?

He turned his head to look at the old Taoist priest, muttering something in his mouth, and if anyone approached to listen carefully, they would hear him repeatedly: "This is all an illusion, it is all an illusion, I want to believe in science, I want to believe in science......

Ren Ning, 23 years old, has just graduated from Agriculture and Forestry University in Fujian Province and has not yet found a job. Half a month ago, I wandered around the flower and bird market by the West Lake, and saw a palm-sized round bronze mirror, which I liked inexplicably.

Of course, he also knows that these things on the stalls basically can't have real antiquities, they are all old and fool people.

However, he really liked it inexplicably, so after some bargaining, he cut it from 8,000 yuan to 800 yuan, and bought the ancient realm.

Eight hundred yuan, but he had nearly a month's food expenses, and somehow he bought such a bronze mirror that could not be used as food or drink.

Then, when he returned to the rental room, he accidentally injured his finger while cleaning the ancient mirror with a steel wool ball, and blood dripped on the back of the mirror.

As a college student, he naturally doesn't feel superstitious that there is anything wrong, it's just that he is careless, and he doesn't care. If you change to a superstitious person, I'm afraid that you will feel unlucky.

As a result, from there, he dreamed every night when he went to sleep, dreaming that he had become a Taoist priest, and there was a group of Taoist priests by his side, and he went to various places.

As a Taoist priest, he actually fights!

It's still the Japanese who fight......

Ren Ning thought that he had watched too much of the Anti-Japanese War drama before, because he in his dream, as well as the Taoist priests around him, did not use guns to fight the Japanese invaders, but all kinds of martial arts, and ...... You can only see it in Xianxia dramas...... Spell!

The figure flashed, and the devil's head was blown up with one punch, and the devil was kicked more than ten meters away, even ...... Hand tear devils!

And in the dream, he was holding a mirror, and when the mirror flickered, a clear light shot out, and the devil was fixed in place, and at this time, other fellow Taoist priests cut off the devil with a sword.

The point is, this sword actually flew out! After cutting off the devil's head, the sword flew back into his hand!

Not only that, but there are many more exaggerated scenes, but after waking up, the memory is blurred, and I can't remember the specifics.

This...... How can it be believed?

Martial arts, maybe, but it can't be that exaggerated, right? As for spells, that's all!

We have been educated for many years, so we naturally believe in science, and dreams are just dreams. It must be that I have watched too many anti-Japanese dramas and Xianxia dramas!

However, every day followed by a similar dream, and he was a little overwhelmed, somewhat suspicious, and not even in the mood to find a job.

Because he had this kind of strange dream every night, he felt quite stressed, and he didn't have the energy to look for a job and attend an interview during the day.

Inexplicably, he thought of Lotus Mountain and Lotus Temple.

Although he had never been to Lotus Mountain, he had only heard of it, but he still came today, braving the heat.

The purpose of coming is to enshrine this ancient mirror in the Taoist temple and send the ancient mirror away.

This is what I used to hear from the old people in my hometown, if something is stained with unclean existence and can't be dealt with by yourself, don't throw it away, but send it to the Taoist priests to deal with it.

So, here he came.

After coming, in order to show his sincerity, after entering the main hall, he bowed his head and bowed, and he didn't even look at the gods offered in the main hall.

Then, and then I saw a very unscientific and incredible scene in front of me.

In fact, he had seen a similar scene in his dreams, and he had taken things from the air. But, but, this is the reality!

After a while, he came back to his senses from his bewilderment, stood up, and bowed to the old Taoist as he had seen in his dream, "Dao Chief...... The backpack in your hand is mine, can you give it back to me? ”

The old Taoist elder handed over the backpack, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face, but said with some excitement: "This layman, you have a mirror in this bag, which is my lotus view, can you return it?" ”

Ren Ning took the backpack, took out the ancient mirror from it, and asked, "Dao Chief, are you talking about this mirror?" ”

The old Taoist nodded again and again, "Yes, that's it!" This is my brother's relic......"

Ren Ning originally wanted to enshrine this ancient mirror in the Taoist temple, but at this time, he didn't know which tendon was wrong, he held the ancient mirror in his hand, and did not hand it over, but said: "Dao Chief, I bought this mirror in the flower and bird market, and it cost me 800 yuan, you can see ......."

Eight hundred yuan, not too much, not too little, especially for someone like him who has just graduated and has not yet found a job, this is almost enough to catch up with a month's food expenses.

Originally, I just wanted to send the mirror away quickly, but at this time, I saw that someone wanted to ask for it, but I thought about getting the cost back.

Of course, apart from the problem of money, he didn't know why, thinking about handing over the mirror, and instead of the sense of relief that he had finally handed over the unclean things, he felt a little reluctant, as if something important to him was about to be lost.

Perhaps, this is the real reason why he mentioned money, he just hopes that he can block the other party with money, so that he can leave the mirror.

It's just that Ren Ning didn't realize what he really thought in his heart at this time.

The old Taoist had calmed down his excitement at this time, and when he heard the young man opposite say this, he looked at the young man opposite.

Before, his mind was on the mirror, and he didn't notice what the young man looked like.

After this look, a smile appeared on the old Taoist leader's face, and he said to Ren Ning: "This is not a place to talk, you can come with me." ”

After speaking, he walked out of the main hall first and walked towards the bungalow on the side, as if he was very sure that the other party would follow, without hesitation.

Ren Ning didn't think much about it, holding a backpack in one hand and an ancient realm in the other, and followed.
