I open a homestay in the last days

She was still in the Zhitang, and the dozing Taoist had long since disappeared. There were only the sound of insects buzzing and the chatter and questions queuing up in another hall not far away.

Dandan made a "hoo" sound on the table, but the boy disappeared.

She turned and looked behind her.

Sure enough, there was a small building, and someone was running upstairs.

With a wave of her hand, Dandan jumped onto her shoulders, kicked her feet, and swept towards the small building.

An old Taoist with white hair and beard was imprisoned in the corridor. The boy was at the stairs, clasping his hands together. The old Taoist exclaimed: "Who are you, let me go."

The boy looked at him coldly: "Throw out the beads in your hand."

The Taoist's face was ashen, and he loosened his hand after all, a green vine quickly rolled up, and Tan Qiuyan picked up the bead into the palm of his hand.

"Dream Mirage Bead?" Tan Qiuyan looked at this blue bead, which was exactly the same as the old man's one on the lake.

The old Taoist suddenly said sharply: "You guys recognize this bead, it really is you, it really is you who killed Shiqi!"

Tan Qiuyan and Tongzi looked at each other.

She took a step forward: "Aren't you Daoist Shiqi?"

"It's not that Shiqi was harmed by you, don't be hypocritical." The old man clenched his fists and looked indignant.

"Old Taoist priest, we have indeed heard about the Taoist Master Shiqi you mentioned. He has been missing for about 30 years, but, look at how old my brother and I are, how could it be us." Tan Qiuyan looked helpless.

The old way returned to his senses, and he also noticed something was wrong: "I heard something? I have been missing for 30 years! Yes, do you know the whereabouts of Shiqi?" His eyes were slightly red, and he stared at Tan Qiuyan.

"Why don't we go in and have a good chat?" Tan Qiuyan looked at him.

"Okay, let me go and talk in my room." The old man let go of his fist.

The boy opened his folded hands gently.There was a breeze in the space where the old man was imprisoned, and he could move.

"You follow me." The old Taoist put one hand behind his back and walked forward.

It was the room I saw in the illusion, the Taoist took out a set of tea sets, brewed tea, and took a sip by himself: "Your friend, you can tell me Shi Qi's whereabouts."

Tan Qiuyan looked at the high-mountain rock tea in front of her. The soup was clear and full of fragrance. It was indeed a good tea: "You keep talking about picking up seven, so who are you?" Her eyes moved up from the tea cup and stopped at him. face.

The old Taoist sighed softly: "My name is Shiwu, and Shiqi is my own younger brother, and also a senior brother of my Tianshi Temple. This name was also given by my master. I am only one year older than Shiqi. , deep feelings."

His hand trembled a little, and he pressed it on the coffee table: "30 years ago, my younger brother went to Jiangnan to enter the world to practice, and I went to Jiangbei beforehand. It was agreed that I would go to Jiangnan to find him the next year, and we brothers will travel together After three years, I will return to Tianshi Temple to accept the inheritance."

"As a result, when I got to Jiangnan, I just couldn't find him. I wasted three years in Jiangnan, and my master passed away. In the end, I couldn't return to Tianshi Temple."

"Then you have become Daoist Shiqi like this? Has no one noticed yet?" Tan Qiuyan was a little puzzled.

"My younger brother and I looked alike originally, but there was a four-year gap between them. It's normal to have some changes. I bear the name of Shiqi, and I just hope that if Shiqi is killed, Shiqi's enemies will be killed." Knowing that he is not dead, I will definitely come to find him.”

"When he comes to find Daoist Qi, it will prove that this person may be the murderer or an insider!" Tan Qiuyan continued his words.

"That's right, can you tell me, little friend?" Daoist Shiwu was worried.

"Okay, I'll start from the beginning." Tan Qiuyan told me everything that happened in W Town.

When he learned that Shi Qi had really passed away, Shi Wu's old man burst into tears.

Tan Qiuyan took out the Mirage Orb she had obtained in W Town before, and handed it to Daoist Shiwu together with the Mirage Orb she had just obtained from Taoist Shiwu.

"Since the right owner has been found, then this treasure should be returned to the original owner." Tan Qiuyan was a little bit reluctant, so she handed it over.

The Taoist didn't reach out to pick it up, but told the story: "This pair of beads, which respond to each other, is the treasure that the first generation abbot of our Tianshi Temple will get by chance. As soon as you enter the temple, I will feel it." , just relying on this bead."

He wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of his eyes: "Just like me and my younger brother, the master gave it to us separately back then. Now, I have never accepted any more apprentices. The only disciple of my younger brother's line is also working for the tiger, and he has been expelled from me a long time ago." Daomen."

"Nowadays in the last days, there are no successors of Taoism, and the treasures can't be kept if they are barely passed on. You can also avenge my brother. This bead belongs to you and this little brother." He looked at Tan Qiuyan and The Tongzi siblings seem to have seen him and his younger brother back then.

Although I was sad, but knowing that the murderer was dead, after all, it was a major event that I had been thinking about all the time.From the bookcase behind him, he took out a book with a red cover and handed it to Tan Qiuyan: "All the secrets here are in it."

This Taoist actually put such an important secret method on the bookshelf casually!

The Taoist seemed to have heard her voice, and pointed to the bookshelf: "It's so majestic, how can the younger generation understand it."

Tan Qiuyan held the scriptures, stood up, and bowed deeply to the old Taoist: "Daoist Shiwu, my name is Tan Qiuyan, if you have anything to do in the future, you can come to find me at the Yinshi B&B in Fengshan Town. I will spare no effort to help you.”

The Taoist laughed loudly: "Okay, if I have something to do, I will come to find my little friend."

Daoist Shiwu no longer has any worries in his heart, but his Taoism is improving, and the exercises that have not been moved for a long time start to move again.

His heart suddenly became brighter, and the sad expression on his face was no longer there, and a bit of immortality was added to his originally comfortable face.

He stood up: "Then I won't send the two little friends away." He pointed at Dandan again, and took out a small bell: "This cat is extraordinary, I give this little thing to it."

Tan Qiuyan took the bell and thanked her.Walking down the wooden building with the boy, the Taoist priest bowed and stood at the door, watching them go away.

Dandan got something for no reason, and was so happy that he hid in his backpack and played with the bell back and forth.

There is a bead in the bell, but it doesn't ring when shaken, so there should be something magical about it.

But since this thing has returned to Dandan, to prevent it from being lost, it is better to find a chain for it to hang around its neck.

After leaving the Taoist temple, the sky has already darkened. At this point, the sun must have set.Scattered street lights on the street came on.

There were more people getting off work, and she took Tongzi's hand and walked towards the road of happiness.

At the pawn shop with parrots, the old man was still hesitating. Seeing that it was getting dark, he got up, closed the door, and took down the birdcage.

"Why don't we close tomorrow, let's go south?" the old man said to the parrot.

"Lazy embryo! Chang Xiaohu, get out..." The parrot jumped up suddenly, talking non-stop.

The old man took the birdcage back to the bedroom, Chang Xiaohu, most of the people who could call him that are buried in the dirt, now the neighbors call him Uncle Chang.

He touched the parrot's head, with a little doting, took out a few more grains, and fed it.
