Chapter Fifty-Six: Shelter from the Rain on the Mountainside
ct, I have an unrequited request, and I hope you will fulfill it.”She was polite and courteous, her words were humble and she put herself in a low position, so no one had any reason to refuse."No need...It takes two hours to hike from the foot of the mountain to the summit. There are tea stalls selling chilled tea at intervals along the way for weary hikers.
This short distance was nothing for Fu Zimo and Jin Mu, who were skilled martial artists. To walk up the mountain wouldn't be difficult, and using light skills to ascend would be even easier.
But for Qin Luoyan and Yisheng, this was still a bit difficult.
The two walked and shopped along the way, picking and choosing from the small stalls by the roadside. By the time they reached the halfway point of the mountain, both of them were carrying big bags and small bags. When they reached the halfway point, Qin Luoyan said she wouldn't walk any further, clamoring for a rest.
Fu Zi Mo saw that the two were panting heavily, embarrassed and out of breath. He didn't refuse, but looked at the roadside makeshift tea stall with a face full of disdain. He wouldn't be seen drinking inferior tea in such a place!
"Master, we really can't go on walking any longer. If you truly don't want to drink tea here, why don't you go ahead I and Yisheng will be there in a little while" Qin Luoyan ignored his unpleasant expression and directly pulled Yisheng to sit down at the tea stall beside them. Then she poured a bowl of tea for herself and Yisheng.
Fu Zi Mo saw that she didn't mind at all, and even drank tea from the bowl. He frowned, "Forget it, Jin Mu, you follow them."
After finishing his words, he no longer looked at the few people, and walked straight up the mountain.
Qin Luoyan secretly curled her lips at his back, then turned to Jin Mu and smiled, "General Jin Mu, why don't you have some tea too"
Kinmo didn't have that much to fuss about, so he sat down with them.
"Golden Wood Leader, may I ask you a question" Qin Luoyan diligently poured a cup of tea for Jin Mu.
Of course, Miss Qin can ask anything she likes.” Jin Mu was an honest person and readily agreed.
Qin Luoyan smiled brightly, "Lord Jumu, do you see that Yisheng has the talent for martial arts"
Unexpectedly, she was asking this. Kimu looked at Yiki, his brow slightly furrowed, and replied with a counter-question: “Does the lady want me to teach this child martial arts”
"Hee hee," Qin Luoyan smiled awkwardly, "I think General Jinmu is a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush. If General Jinmu is willing to give him some guidance, of course I would be happy."
Jinmu listened, took a sip of tea, and when he put down the teacup his brow was still furrowed. He said with difficulty: "Miss Qin, it's not that I won't agree, but my duty is to guard my master, there's no time to teach this child. Giving this child to me would only be a hindrance."
He spoke earnestly, Qin Luoyan understood rationally, but emotionally she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Seeing her like this, Jin Mu thought for a moment and added, “However... if the young lady truly wants him to learn martial arts, I could perhaps think of a way. It's just that I don't know if this child can endure hardship.”
Qin Luoyan's eyes lit up, and she quickly said, "He's not afraid of hardship, as long as he can become stronger, he can endure any hardship! Isn't that right, Yisheng"
Wing Sheng, suddenly called out, raised his head and looked at Qin Luo Yan, then at Jin Mu, before solemnly nodding.
Jinmu saw that both of them were very serious, and he sighed, "Since that's the case, I'll write a letter to my senior brother in a few days and see if he can take Yingsheng as his disciple and teach him well. My senior brother's martial arts are beyond my reach. The only problem is that he's too erratic and always likes to travel far and wide. If he agrees to take Yingsheng as his disciple, I'm afraid Yingsheng will have to follow him on a journey for several years, sleeping in the open air day after day. I wonder if this child can persevere..."
“I can!” This time, Yisheng didn’t wait for Qin Luoyan to call his name. He turned and charged towards Qin Luoyan, raising a faint smile. If that person's martial arts were very powerful, then he was willing to learn, as long as the day he mastered them, wouldn't he be able to make that man never bully her again
Qin Luoyan didn't know what Yisheng was thinking, but hearing him say this, she smiled with relief. "I knew it, our Yisheng is the best!"
Yisheng blushed shyly, but didn't refuse her touch as she stroked his head in comfort.
"Well then, I see this child's disposition is also quite good. When I return to the estate, I will contact my senior brother." Jin Mu agreed, causing both Qin Luo Yan and Yi Sheng to smile with understanding.
After resting for a while, several people resumed their journey.
As the saying goes, mountain winds are unpredictable. This proves true as just moments ago the sun was shining brightly, but now clouds have gathered, casting a shadow over everything. Judging by the current weather pattern, it seems like heavy rain is imminent.
"This place is out in the middle of nowhere, let's find somewhere to take shelter from the rain quickly." Kaneki glanced at the sky and said to the two people behind him.
The pedestrians on the road were either hurrying down the mountain or looking for shelter from the rain.
Fu Zi Mo had already gone up the mountain, so they couldn't go down. They could only find a place to take shelter from the rain. Qin Luo Yan nodded in agreement, "I think those villagers seem to know where to take shelter from the rain. Why don't we follow them"
Kinmochi also agreed to his proposal, so several of them followed a few villagers seeking shelter from the rain along the path.
After walking for a while, they indeed saw a Taoist temple ahead. However, the temple was very simple and not as eye-catching as the carefully renovated temples along the mountain path.
The torrential rain finally came down, each raindrop as big as a pearl, smashing onto the ground and creating tiny pits in the flowing water with each impact.
The villagers rushed to the eaves of the temple to seek shelter from the rain, but it was too late. Almost everyone's clothes were soaked through.
Jīnmù brought Qín Luòyān along, and the two arrived at the Daoist temple, standing under the eaves with several villagers.
The gate of the Taoist temple was closed, but the villagers did not go forward to knock. They just stood under the eaves, sheltering from the rain, each clutching their arms and trembling with cold.
Qin Luoyan's figure was originally excellent, and after being drenched by the rain, her clothes clung to her body, outlining her figure even more seductively.
Jin Mu merely glanced at her before quickly turning his head away. "Miss Qin, perhaps we should go inside and see if there's anyone in the Taoist temple. If there is, maybe we could find you some clean clothes to change into."
Qin Luoyan crossed her arms, gradually feeling the scorching gazes of those around her, "Well, let's go in and have a look."
With her permission, Kaneki turned and knocked on the Taoist temple's door. After a while, he heard footsteps inside, a smile spreading across his face. But when the door opened, his smile froze.
Originally, the one who came to open the door was actually a Taoist nun!
It's no wonder those villagers wouldn't go in. If this temple was run by a female Daoist nun, it would indeed be inconvenient for male guests to enter.
