Don’t be a licking dog when you are reborn.

Chapter 212 Do I look like a clown? (2 in 1)

Ji Feng raised his eyebrows and suddenly said:
"Taoist ritual?"

"Hey, do you still know the etiquette of Taoism? It's not bad. It's not uneducated, and it's not insulting what I told you."

Monsoon: (*￣︿￣)
The corner of Ji Feng's mouth twitched. Most Taoist people are not as immortal as in the legend. They actually have more noses.

He has a bad temper, is knowledgeable, and can reason with you, but will fight with you when your reasoning fails.

This is probably what Taoist people really look like.

He had a vague impression of what Ye Chen said, and it was probably the Taoist rituals of some Taoist branches.

The reason is that the Taoist sect’s rules for accepting disciples are very strict...

If the heart does not believe it, it will not accept it.

If your heart is not right, you will only seek supernatural powers.

If the mind is not stable, the mind is not strong, the mind is not solid, and there is no talent or quality, it will not be accepted.

Teaching the Dharma is difficult.

But even Taoist priests will sometimes help others or do good to others.

It's probably equivalent to making friends. After getting to know each other, you will inevitably receive some gifts when interacting with your friends.

And the people of the Taoist sect were relatively poor, so the Taoist rites came into being, which meant teaching them some Taoist skills as a reward.

First of all, it is a courtesy exchange with friends.

Secondly, it can be regarded as finding a reason to spread the law.

That's probably what it means.

The problem is that this was the first time he met Ye Chen. He only said a few words in total and just gave him gifts. It really didn't make sense...

"Why is Taoist Master doing this?"

"Do you listen? If you don't listen, leave quickly. If you have free time, you can go chop wood. Because there are four women in your team, a lot of water will be boiled next. You can chop the future wood in advance."

Ji Feng:……

Okay, okay, it's the same as paying the phone bill in advance, right? It's a bit interesting.

"I happen to have nothing to do, so let's listen together..." Ji Feng sat down and began to listen to Ye Chen's lecture to the two Taoist boys.

It was said that he was giving lectures, but Ji Feng felt that Ye Chen was just bragging in front of two children.

It's just that there is some truth mixed in with his bragging.

"Be reasonable when things happen. If you don't agree with your reason, you can use force to convince others. Taoist people must know some fists and kicks..."

"Love is a matter of love. If you are in love, if you are not in love, then he is trying to trick you. You have to stay away from him..."

"Endure the humiliation and bullying for a moment, take a step back and get angrier the more you think about it. Anyone who disturbs my Taoist mind will die..."

What Ye Chen said was quite interesting. An hour passed quickly. Then he ended his literature class and asked the two children to go out and wait for him to practice martial arts later.

Seeing the two little Taoist boys running away to play in relief, Ji Feng looked at Ye Chen strangely.

"Taoist Ye, they are so young. If you tell them this, they shouldn't be able to understand, right?"

"The principles that you don't understand now will one day come to your senses and you will understand that this is the closed loop of education. As long as you teach it, it will be useful."

Ji Feng nodded, the closed loop of education is indeed like this.

But these two children are too young. Teaching should be done step by step. There will be plenty of time in the future.

time……

Ji Feng glanced at Taoist Ye and realized that he had already walked out, so he followed him to the courtyard.

Ji Feng sighed again as he watched Taoist Ye instructing the two children to walk.

Simple teaching, simple life.

Ye Chen went to the toilet on the way. The little girl was okay, but the little boy immediately started to be lazy.

Seeing Ji Feng looking at him, he even made a face at Ji Feng, such a naughty kid...

He didn't reposition his horse until there was movement outside the door.

"Did Qingfeng be lazy just now?"

"There is no master."

"Really not?"

"Really not!"

"Qingfeng, you lied."

"I……"

"There is an outsider here today. I'll know what's going on if I ask him." Ye Chen pointed at Ji Feng.

The little Taoist boy immediately panicked and stared at Ji Feng eagerly, hoping that Ji Feng would not reveal what he had just been lazy about.

But Ji Feng only frowned slightly, not quite understanding the meaning of Ye Chen's doing this.

A child's emotions are the most straightforward. If he responds lazily and does not hold grudges, he will most likely be hostile to the little Taoist boy.

But to say there is no such thing is to condone lies about children.

Therefore, Ji Feng just waved his hand and did not answer directly:
"The Taoist Master knows what's going on, why bother me."

Seeing that Ji Feng was unwilling to respond directly, Ye Chen chuckled, as if he had a crooked mouth like a dragon king.

He turned to look at Qingfeng:
"Qingfeng, you don't practice diligently and lie. You should be severely punished."

After saying that, Taoist Ye picked up a wooden stick as thick as a child's arm and hit the boy on the head.

Monsoon: Damn it!
His subconscious kindness made him reach out to block the child. His movements were no slower than Ye Chen's. The wooden stick was instantly caught by Ji Feng, and a burning pain came from his palm.

Ji Feng was a little nervous. He could understand hitting the child, but was it done like this?

Ji Feng, who has always had an easy-going temper, became a little angry at this time:

"No, the rolling pin my mother used to beat me when I was little was not even half as thick as this one. Are you crazy?"

Taoist Ye glanced back at Ji Feng and suddenly smiled.

"What a quick move!"

The meaning of this smile was somewhat unclear. Ji Feng subconsciously wanted to retreat, but Ye Chen had already extended his palm to him.

The speed was very fast, and Ji Feng's natural reaction made him make a backhand block...

Snapped!
When their palms rubbed against each other, there was a loud sound, like a slap in the face very hard.

Seeing that the monsoon was blocking him, Taoist Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, and then swept his legs from a low position.

Ji Feng's eyes almost popped out when he saw this scene. Isn't this a Muay Thai sweep and kick? Are you sure he is a Taoist priest?

Ji Feng didn't want to try the force of this kick and stepped back to get out of the way.

Taoist Ye directly moved forward with his fists, and Ji Feng bent his arms to block.

boom!
After dodging twice and blocking, Ji Feng got a little angry and responded with a turning kick.

The powerful and heavy kick actually seemed unstoppable.

Ye Chen suddenly leaned back, holding his hands on the ground like a dancer lowering his waist.

This is not outrageous. What is outrageous is that after he exerted his strength again, he was able to stand up straight.

Ji Feng saw that his scalp was numb. The body coordination and core strength of the smelly Taoist priest could no longer be regarded as normal people. He was the kind who had to go to the police station to register.

He also started rubbing his fists to warm up.

However, Ye Chen didn't seem to have the intention to continue taking action. He actually smiled and then saluted Ji Feng:
"You're polite, have you practiced it before?"

Seeing Ji Feng and his master going back and forth, the eyes of the two little Taoist boys were already shining.

However, Ji Feng only had anger on his face at this time:
"Stinky Taoist, are you mentally ill?"

"As you know, Pindao lives here alone. There are no entertainment projects, so he will always be a little bored. Seeing your agility, he felt a bit itch for a while..."

Ye Chen looked at Ji Feng, as if looking at a good junior, with an expression of "keep working hard, I'm very optimistic about you".

But Ji Feng just felt that there was something wrong with the Taoist priest's mind, and he didn't want to continue to talk to him, so he turned around and left:

"You're bored and can't play with your phone? Don't know how to watch movies? Don't know how to glue? You're crazy..."

Ye Chen:......

“If you’re cultivating your mind here, you won’t be carrying something like a mobile phone with you.”

"If you don't have a mobile phone, go to the town and buy some imperial books, but remember to keep them well. There is a lot of water vapor here, so don't get damp and get moldy!"

Ji Feng's voice came from far away. Seeing him leaving, Ye Chen did not forget to shout behind him:
"Ji Shi, don't forget to chop wood."

Ji Feng, who was walking in front, suddenly staggered and almost tripped over the door frame.

Returning to the backyard, Ji Feng suddenly discovered that there was one more girl among the busy girls!

Miss Rabbit, Bian Jiani.

It's no wonder that Ji Feng saw her at a glance. After all, Nuan Nuan and the others are very tall, all at 165 or above.

Miss Rabbit is obviously under 1 meters tall, and may have more weight. The obvious height difference makes her look more like a small loli among the other girls, even though she is the oldest.

"Hi, Ji Feng!" Seeing Ji Feng, Bian Jiani took the initiative to say hello.

"Hello, Sister Rabbit, I'm cleaning..."

Ji Feng was at a loss for words. After all, he had heard Nuan Nuan say before that Bian Jiani might have a severe somatization, but now that he was face to face, he still couldn't tell.

"Hmm, I didn't expect to meet you here..."

"Yeah, what a coincidence."

According to Mr. Kangaroo’s travel guide, there are still a few stops along the way, so Monsoon and the others arrived here early.

But Bian Jiani actually arrived after them, and the time did not correspond to the travel guide.

So, she didn’t go through the travel guide process?

At this time, Nuan Nuan came over and held Ji Feng's finger, and Ji Feng immediately asked:

"Where are Xu Ming and Zhang Chao?"

"They went to chop wood. They just said that they would let you come when you come back. They said that everyone's work should be divided equally and they couldn't be lazy..."

"Ji Feng, you've been lazy for a long time, hurry up and get to work!" Mu Wanqiu also urged.

"This is what Lao Ji is like." Ye Yuwei made a very timely comment.

"Uh, okay."

Ji Feng was a little embarrassed. Compared to others, he was indeed a bit lazy.

Now being arrested on the spot by my brothers, I feel a little embarrassed.

Bian Jiani pointed to the distance at this time:

"Monsoon, where is the place to cut firewood? Huang Ge, arbor, birch are all fine. See if any of them are withered..."

Miss Rabbit explained to Ji Feng, but Ji Feng felt a little strange.

"Ok."

Ji Feng nodded, and then Mu Wanqiu came over and asked:
"Sister Rabbit, where is the toilet?"

"There are only dry toilets over there, just bear with it."

Before leaving, Ji Feng glanced at Nuan Nuan and asked his doubts:
"She seems familiar with this place?"

"It's very familiar, like home."

Home?

Ji Feng did not continue to think deeply. He was really going to chop wood. The hatchets originally prepared in their car had been taken away by them. Ji Feng picked up the ax next to the woodpile and walked towards the woods.

Arriving at the woods pointed by Bian Jiani, the corners of Lao Ji's mouth immediately began to twitch.

Xu Ming and Chaozi were not cutting firewood. They each cut a straight branch and were discussing swords in Huashan...

"NMD, didn't you mean cutting firewood?"

"Lao Ji, this stick feels so good, will you come?"

"childish!"

Ji Feng said this, but his body was very honest...

Five minutes later, he had already picked up the hatchet and whittled one for himself.

"Haha, my stick is straighter than yours!"

……

At night, the dilapidated Taoist temple was somewhat silent.

The secluded life outside the world is not as happy as everyone imagines. Without the convenience of urban areas, many things have to be done by oneself.

For example, very tedious tasks such as carrying water, chopping firewood, cooking pots, and cooking all take a lot of time.

Except for the room where Ye Chen usually slept, there were only three other rooms.

The Taoist temple was very dirty, and there were no aprons or headgear. The girls had cleaned up inside and out, making their hair unkempt. They must take a good bath.

Don't talk about taking a bath in the river, that's totally bullshit.

But there is no running water here, so we can only get a simple kettle to take a shower, and then we need to boil water, a lot of water.

This is not an easy life.

The three boys were very tired from chopping wood and carrying water during the day, and now they had to work again, so you must have pushed me.

But when Lao Ji saw the warmth that was usually white and pure, but now looked down and down and silently boiled water, he really couldn't hold back.

I feel sorry for my wife...

"I'll do it." Ji Feng stepped forward.

"Let's go together." Wen Nuan blinked, his eyelids were dark, as if he had applied eye shadow.

"it is good."

Men and women are matched, so work is not tiring.

Dirty warmth leaned against Ji Feng's body, and Hei Buliuqiu's hands rubbed back and forth on him, but Ji Feng didn't care.

Because he is also dirty.

Holding Nuan Nuan in his arms, Lao Ji couldn't help teasing:
“I’ll give you a hug while it’s dirty, so that you won’t be able to hug me again when you’re clean.”

Wen Xiaonuan blinked and thought for a while:
"Then I'll wash it last so you can hold her for a little longer."

Ji Feng was stunned for a moment, then realized that she wanted to spend more time with him, and a smile immediately appeared on her lips:
"Okay." Facing the firelight, Ji Feng took out some charcoal and drew a picture in front of the warmth.

【ＩLU】

After the autistic girl saw it, she also picked up charcoal, drew a larger heart next to the pattern drawn by Ji Feng, and wrote:

【Love you, too】

Then he suddenly hugged Lao Ji and kissed him.

MUA~
"I still kiss you even though my face is gray..."

"It's okay, there's dust on my mouth too." Wen Nuan smiled.

The two of them were throwing tantrums regardless of the occasion, causing several people traveling with them to retreat.

nausea! Really disgusting!
But there was one person who watched it with gusto.

It's Miss Rabbit.

Realizing that Bian Jiani had been staring at him and Ji Feng, Nuan Nuan's face immediately turned red, but there was too much gray on his face, black and red.

Bian Jiani curled her eyes and nodded towards her.

Nuan Nuan also nodded in response. She actually had very little communication with Bian Jiani, far less than the little rich woman.

Even when I was in Sioux City before, I had some hostility.

She came here just for Miss Rabbit, but she never knew how to speak. Now that Miss Rabbit took the initiative to show her kindness, Wen Xiaonuan relieved a lot of psychological burden.

"Miss Rabbit, go wash up first. You were a big help during the day."

"How can this kind of thing be considered helping? It's you who are helping me..." Miss Rabbit shook her head slightly and said something that she didn't know what it meant.

But she didn't bother to linger any longer.

Because she understands very well that the world of a young couple does not need too many people.

Even outsiders are not needed.

Several girls were very restrained in taking a bath, but Ji Feng and the others still boiled six or seven pots in a row before they were done.

After everyone had washed up and stayed in the yard chatting happily, some strange emotions began to quietly grow.

The cause was that solar panel.

They want to charge their mobile phones, but there are not enough sockets and the battery capacity is hard to say...

If things go on and on, some people will no longer want to do it. This kind of thing can easily lead to quarrels.

In the end, the monsoon calmed everyone down and allowed everyone to take turns to recharge.

It’s really hard to live without electricity.

After the initial novelty has passed and the filter of the paradise has faded, a boring feeling will come into my heart when I think about facing such a life next.

The mentality of Xu Ming, Zhang Chao, and even Mu Wanqiu and Gu Xueting had vaguely changed.

Ji Feng, Wen Nuan, and Ye Yuwei are all okay. They either have a stable mentality or have endured hardships. The current environment is a bit worse, but it is not unacceptable.

At least it would be nice to be able to take a shower.

And the environment here is really good, with bright night sky, fresh air, and you can't feel the hustle and bustle of the city, nor the rush of the past.

The pace of everything has slowed down, which feels good.

But when they finally separated to sleep in separate rooms, Ji Feng's expression became tangled again.

There were not enough rooms. Except for Ye Chen, the Taoist priest who had not shown up since the afternoon, the remaining three rooms must be shared by Ji Feng and the three men.

The remaining five girls seem to be difficult to distribute.

Ye Yuwei's original intention was that she and Miss Rabbit would sleep in a small room, while the three of them would sleep in a large room.

However, this proposal was rejected by Wen Nuan:

"Yuwei, there's no need to separate. Miss Rabbit and I can sleep in a small room."

Mu Wanqiu and the others were surprised by Nuan Nuan's request. They all vaguely sensed something was wrong.

It was Nuan Nuan who suggested coming to this place.

This thing was already strange, but now Nuan Nuan offered to sleep with Miss Rabbit.

Did something happen that they didn't know about?

However, Nuan Nuan did not explain, but looked at Bian Jiani quietly:
"Sister Rabbit, what do you think?"

Bian Jiani glanced at Wen Nuan thoughtfully, as if she wanted to see what the autistic girl was thinking.

But Wen Nuan is no longer a vegetarian now. Faced with such a direct gaze, she is calm and composed.

In the end, Bian Jiani just nodded lightly:
"No problem, I can do it."

Before leaving, Ji Feng held Nuan Nuan's fingers, with some worry in his eyes:

"no problem?"

Nuan Nuan shook Ji Feng's finger and signaled that he was fine:
"Monsoon, if you are looked at with a colored eye, it will be even more painful..."

Ji Feng understands what she means, and Nuan Nuan has also had those experiences, so that's why she said this.

He also doesn't want to look at others with a colored eye.

You can even show enough kindness at some point, donate money, help, those are all fine.

But if your wife lives with such a person, that is another matter.

"Is it really okay?"

Wen Xiaonuan was amused by Ji Feng's entangled look, and this time it was her who touched Ji Feng's head.

"It's really no problem. I was worse than her before, and I didn't stab you many times..."

"Um, okay, if you need anything, you can call me or send me a WeChat message."

"Ah."

Seeing Nuan Nuan's persistence, Ji Feng didn't force it.

Most of the time, warmth followed him, including work, life, and the city.

He didn't want to deprive Wen Nuan of his autonomy, and Wen Wen rarely asked to do something like this, so today, Ji Feng really had no way to refuse.

……

When Ji Feng returned to his room.

Xu Ming and Zhang Chao have already begun to fall asleep. They have been busy all day today and they are really tired.

Xu Ming, a second-generation rich man, rarely works and does not like to exercise on weekdays, so his physical strength is extremely poor.

Zhang Chao is doing better and has been exercising recently, but he has been playing too much and is exhausted.

So when Ji Feng lay down, the two of them were already snoring loudly.

Ji Feng picked up his phone. Charging was troublesome, so he hesitated to send a message to Nuan Nuan.

When he was struggling, warm news came first:
【everything is fine! (^^)]

[OK, go to bed early. 】

After returning to the warmth, Ji Feng wanted to sleep, but he lay on the bed and listened to the snoring of the two of them and the chirping of insects outside the house.

The mood is always restless.

After all, he was still worried about Nuan Nuan.

Especially after Nuan Nuan mentioned Miss Rabbit's situation, he would always assume that Miss Rabbit was an unstable factor.

Monsoon doesn't like such completely unpredictable conditions.

He thought about it and couldn't sleep, so he simply got up and walked out of the house.

The night was very dark, and there were no lights at night here. Ji Feng used the light of his mobile phone to fumble toward the outside of the compound.

As he was walking, he was suddenly startled!
A man is sitting cross-legged on a stone by the stream in the distance, glowing!
In the dim light, Ji Feng saw the other party's bunted hair and the shabby robe...

Ye Chen? Meditate? Glow?

Ji Feng: There is no such thing as cultivating immortals, right? ()
With all sorts of doubts, Ji Feng tiptoed over.

It's a pity that in this environment, except for the chirping of insects, everything is too quiet. The footsteps of the monsoon are abrupt and clear in Ye Chen's ears.

"Who?"

As Ye Chen's questioning voice sounded, the light radiating from his body also disappeared.

Ji Feng scratched his head in embarrassment. Was this interrupting his cultivation?
Are all Taoist people cultivating immortals?
"Taoist Priest, it's me."

"What are you doing here?" Ye Chen's tone was still the same, not easy to deal with.

"I can't sleep, so I went out for a walk. Was the Taoist cultivating immortality just now?" Ji Feng was really curious.

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded directly.

"Well, I'm just cultivating immortality. I've finished my work. You should rest early."

Taoist Ye left first. Ji Feng stood there bored for a while and simply sat on the stone where Ye Chen was sitting just now.

He either believes it or comes here to feel it.

Unfortunately, there is no feeling.

When he was bored, he picked up his mobile phone and browsed for a while with a poor signal.

Until a sudden voice sounded from behind:

"Damn it, Lao Ji, where are you cultivating immortality?" It was Xu Ming who came out to use the toilet.

"I'll make a hammer fairy."

"Looking at the glow on your body, I thought you came here to cultivate immortality without sleeping..."

Ji Feng was stunned at first.

Glow?

Then he looked at his phone and narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Ye Chen is so awesome, he gets up in the middle of the night and secretly plays with his mobile phone?"

……

On the other side, Nuan Nuan and Miss Rabbit's room.

Although Nuan Nuan is not as talkative as Mu Wanqiu and plays the role of a qualified listener most of the time, she is on the same wavelength as Miss Rabbit every time she speaks.

The two of them chatted all day long, and their relationship was exceptionally harmonious, as if they had been friends for many years.

The scope of their chat was very wide, and their warmth was not deliberately directed.

But as we chatted, we naturally talked about emotional issues:
"You and Ji Feng have a good relationship?"

"Well, very good." Nuan Nuan answered simply.

She is very firm, believes in her own love, and believes that Ji Feng loves her.

Miss Rabbit nodded slightly and praised:
"That's great. Nuan Nuan, you seem quite introverted. Is he chasing you?"

"No, I was the one chasing him."

"Huh?" Bian Jiani was really stunned this time.

But Wen Nuan just smiled, with a look of reminiscence on his face, as if he was thinking of the time when he foolishly came to find Ji Feng:
“I used to think that I was a very introverted person and I liked to be alone a lot of the time.

But I later realized that I just didn’t like getting along with other people and didn’t want to be disturbed, but when I was around him, the feeling was different.

I will feel very secure, and when I am asked to do things that make me happy, I will be very outgoing.

I liked him, so I went after him..."

"It's... amazing."

Listening to Wen Nuan's rare gushing, Miss Rabbit's expression was a little incomprehensible.

Nuan Nuan also felt something. She stared at Bian Jiani's profile, hesitated for a moment and then spoke:

"Is Miss Rabbit getting married at the end of the month?"

"Yeah, just like you said, do things that make you happy.

Traveling is what he loves most, and what I love most is what he loves most..."

Nuan Nuan frowned slightly. She seemed to have said something similar to Ji Feng, but the content was slightly different.

Mentioning Miss Rabbit's wedding, Nuan Nuan's eyes became more and more uneasy.

Especially after Miss Rabbit came here, Taoist Ye Chen seemed to have disappeared. What is the relationship between them?
In fact, she likes to attend other people's weddings because she likes to see other people's happiness.

Blessings and praises are all sincere.

But she didn’t even dare to mention the wedding that Miss Rabbit mentioned directly, so she could only ask insinuatingly:
"Master Ye Chen, is this Mr. Kangaroo?"

Nuan Nuan hoped to hear a positive answer, but Miss Rabbit just shook her head slightly:

"He is not."

After answering this question, Miss Rabbit seemed to be in a much lower mood.

She took out her phone and looked through her friend circles. She didn't stop her fingers until one of them seemed to be the Aurora Moments from abroad.

[People always like to reminisce about the past, immerse themselves in it, and look back at their lives in an accidental familiarity. This will only bring pain to themselves, but happiness actually lies in inadvertent moments. in life. 】

[Picture] The last one is a picture of holding hands.

Staring at this circle of friends, Miss Rabbit suddenly smiled.

Nuan Nuan knew that that smile was definitely not happy.

Then she replied on Moments:
[All human pain is essentially anger at one’s own incompetence. 】

She didn't avoid anything when checking Moments, so she could see clearly even though her eyesight was very good.

Sent by Moments, it seems to be in some travel mood.

But why is that person’s name...

[Mr. Kangaroo]? ? ?
Sensing the warm gaze, Miss Rabbit suddenly turned her back and avoided her gaze.

"warmth."

"how?"

"Do I look like a clown?"

Nuan Nuan pursed her lips. She didn't know how to answer this question for a while. She couldn't change her mind and could only subconsciously ask:
"Why do you say that?"

"Because clowns like to peek at other people's happiness on a small screen."
