1 me traveling through time at the same time

Chapter 697: Year after year, celebrating the rest of the year
The old Taoist was actually using anger to hide his fear.

That’s right, not only was he not happy, but he was terrified instead.

It is a good thing for an apprentice to be promising, but if he is too promising, that is not so good.

But now that things have come to this, there is no turning back.

Looking at those still clear eyes, the old Taoist had to make a decision that went against his oath.

"Come down the mountain."

"what?"

Amber, who was walking towards this side, was stunned, "Master, are you going to chase me away?"

"What bullshit are you talking about? Who will see me off when you're gone?"

The old Taoist angrily said, "While you can still move, I will take you to the foot of the mountain to avoid being cheated and counting money for others in the future."

Amber wanted to refute when she heard this, but seeing the other party's extremely serious look, she had to change her words and said, "Okay, okay, you decide."

Although the old man is old, he is a man of action. Once he makes a decision, he doesn't want to waste a single moment.

The next morning, after burning incense to the ancestor and attending the last morning lessons, the master and disciple walked down the mountain.

All the luggage was in Amber's bag after she left. Apart from a few sets of clothes, the rest was the old Taoist's savings over the years.

A total of five taels of silver and one hundred and eight coins.

"When you go out, don't show off your wealth to others unless necessary, and don't act like a fool."

On the rugged mountain path, the old Taoist walked briskly, explaining to Amber what to pay attention to as he walked.

When we reached the foot of the mountain, more than a dozen scattered thatched houses came into view.

It was still early at this moment, but every household had already come out to work, begging for food in the fields, and had already summed up their experience.

"Master Yufeng, what are you doing?"

The villagers who were coming towards them were stunned when they saw the master and disciple.

"Take your apprentice and travel for a while."

The old Taoist’s surname is Li, his common name is Li Jinshan, and his Taoist name is Yufengzi.

"Ah? Then when will you be back?"

The villagers' faces changed, as if they were reluctant to leave.

"It may take a year or two at the fastest, or three to five years at the shortest, but I will come back eventually."

The old Taoist's words calmed the villagers' slight panic.

"I see, wait a minute!"

He was a dark-skinned man in his thirties, and the wrinkles on his face made him look much older than his actual age.

I saw him running into the village shouting.

"Master Yufeng is going to travel, everyone come out quickly!"

The originally quiet village suddenly became noisy. The doors of every household were opened, and the old and the young rushed to the village entrance.

"Why do you have to do this? Why do you have to do this? It's not like I won't come back."

Please put away the smile on your face when you say this!

Amber complained on the side.

He knew very well why the current situation had occurred, and it was all thanks to the medical skills of his master.

Although Yunge Mountain is full of stones, it is not the case in other places, and it is very easy to find some herbs.

Whenever people in the village have a headache or fever, they can take this medicine and it will definitely work.

In this way, the old Taoist was "forced" to get a lot of dry food and even a few pairs of straw sandals.

By the time Amber left the village, she was already carrying a lot of bags.

The root of emotion without anything is here.
"Did you see something?"

On the ridge of the field, the old Taoist asked with his eyes squinted.

"You are so shameless."

Amber was blunt.

"shit!"

The old Taoist was furious, "You idiot, those villagers gave me gifts out of gratitude, but if you really think that's all, then you're stupid. They're afraid that we'll never come back! Do you believe it, if I said from the beginning that I'd never come back, would there be so many people just now?" "Uh"

Amber certainly understood the truth, but wasn't this for the sake of her character? At least in front of the person who knew the original owner best, she had to pretend. "Master, you think too badly of me."

"Bad?"

The old Taoist shook his head, his face somewhat dejected: "It's not that I think badly, but human nature is like this. Remember one thing, don't be too nice to people, especially those you just met. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to get any good things, but you will also become enemies."

"I remember that."

Amber responded.

It's a matter of gratitude and resentment. Just say no.

But when I think of the original owner’s honest and straightforward character, it’s no wonder that the old Taoist priest was so sincere in his advice.

After leaving the village, they soon reached the official road. Amber was fine, but the old Taoist was old after all. Even though he had some martial arts skills, it was still too exhausting to travel such a long distance.

Besides, it was already dark and the nearest town was still hundreds of miles away, so there was no point in continuing walking.

"Hurry up, there is a dilapidated temple about ten miles ahead, let's go there and rest for a while."

After the current emperor ascended the throne, the Qing Kingdom has been destroying mountains and temples. Many places that used to be very popular have now become ruins.

For example, the mountain temple they were about to arrive at.

It was not known whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but as soon as the master and disciple arrived, it started to rain outside, and it got heavier and heavier, and even faint thunder could be heard.

"Ancestor, please bless us. Otherwise, if it gets caught in the rain, it will be a big trouble."

The old Taoist sat on the hay, looked outside and sighed.

Amber picked up some dry firewood, lit a fire, and took out the dry food to bake. Hearing this, he couldn't help but ask, "Master, where are you going?"

"Go north."

The old Taoist glanced at Amber but did not fully explain his plan.

"Hmm? Didn't you say you disliked those guys in the north the most?"

Amber was stunned and asked in confusion.

"What if I don't like it? What if I like it?"

The old Taoist said impatiently, and then said: "I grew up there when I was young. Can't I go and see it before I die?"

"Go, go, go."

This old man was like a man of gunpowder after he came down the mountain. Everything he said was very irritating. Amber didn't want to offend him any more.

If you must say it, this is also the original owner's memory and the remaining emotions in his body that he cannot let go of.

Master, once you’re my teacher, you’re always my father.

What's more, monks have no offspring, so their disciples are truly their sons.

The feelings involved are beyond the understanding of outsiders.

"Keep your heart."

After a moment of silence, the old Taoist suddenly spoke.

Amber, who was baking pancakes, was startled and looked up and asked in confusion: "What's wrong, Master?"

"Promise me, Master, that for the rest of the journey, no matter what happens, you are not allowed to attack, and you are not allowed to use thunder magic, even if I die in front of you."

The old man's tone was very resolute, as if he had made some kind of decision.

"what?!"

Amber is not really naive, so how could she not know what he is planning?

Not taking action? Just don't let you see it.

Of course, you still have to refute it verbally.

"Why? I finally got the approval of the Grandmaster and mastered the Thunder Method, why can't I use it?"

Is that what you call Lei Fa?

The old Taoist rolled his eyes. There are great masters in this world who are worth thousands of troops alone, but that is just an exaggeration.

If a bolt of lightning really struck, who knows what would happen.

"Don't ask too many questions, just do as you are told."
