"I'm not dead." This time Chen Yue took the initiative to speak.

The boss listened to her, calmed down a bit, and stared at her for a long time. After all, she was indeed a big living person, so he was not afraid anymore, but he was still shocked, and said with a frown: "How could this be? You are obviously dead. Although I didn't go to your funeral, I heard about it..."

Chen Yue said: "Since I'm standing here, of course I'm not dead. Could it be that I'm a ghost?"

The boss scratched his head and thought, this is indeed the truth, and his mind became even more confused.

Ye Shaoyang seized the opportunity and said: "The person on the way just said the same thing. She only went to live with me for a while, why did everyone say she was dead after she came back?"

The boss had an incredible expression on his face, and he was in a daze.

At this time, a woman came out from the inner room and asked what was going on. Seeing Chen Yue, she was also stunned.

Ye Shaoyang explained again.

The woman looked Chen Yue up and down for a long time, and even reached out to touch her face to make sure she was human, so she was relieved, but like her husband, she couldn't understand this matter.

"You all know her, right?" Ye Shaoyang asked the two couples, "Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?"

Both said it was impossible to admit mistakes.

"She's a little nun... no, no, little fairy." The shop owner smiled sheepishly, "She lives in that temple on the mountain, and her master is a female Taoist priest, who is very skilled. The villages around us The residents of the house often go up to the mountain to burn incense, and they all know her. She is an orphan, and she was picked up by the Taoist priest at the foot of the mountain when she was a child, and has been raised. We call her little nun behind my back, hehe."

Ye Shaoyang frowned and said, "Her master is a Taoist priest, so she is also a Taoist priest. Why do you call her a little nun?"

"Ah, we are all mountain people, and monks and priests can't tell the difference. At first, we didn't know who called it that, but everyone called it that." The man explained.

Ye Shaoyang continued to ask, and the couple provided some more information: Chen Yue went to a school in the town since she was a child, and she stopped studying after graduating from junior high school. She has been living in a Taoist temple on the mountain and practicing with her master. .

Speaking of the origin of this Taoist temple, it was during the period of the Republic of China, there was a lot of sloppy children here, and many children died. Later, a local man who went out to do business invited a wandering Taoist from nowhere and killed the sloppy Taoist. Seeing that the feng shui of this place is good, he stayed here for a long time, and the people in the town raised money to build such a Taoist temple for him.

This Taoist priest stayed alone in the Taoist temple for a long time, and sometimes he went out for wanderings. He brought back a girl decades ago, raised him himself, and took in an apprentice. She was Chen Yue's master Shi Taoist. The old Taoist priest died later. That’s right, Taoist Shi took over this Taoist temple and lived there for decades, because he is a good person and has great skills. As long as someone in the nearby villages suffers from surgical diseases (referring to diseases such as evil spirits, not the surgery of Western medicine) , I always look to her, and I usually go up the mountain to burn incense and make a wish. The local people respect Shi Taoist very much.

In their impression, the little girl Chen Yue is very honest, usually she doesn't like to talk, and she doesn't have much contact with the local people. The best way is to go down the mountain to buy some daily necessities. Let's start. Because the Taoist temple is not considered a residence and does not have a real estate certificate, when Daoist Shi helped her apply for an account, he found the production team and put her account in their village.

Ye Shaoyang understood the general situation when he heard this, and asked them: "Then how did she die?"

"Probably...it was last month, yes, at the beginning of last month, Taoist Shi sent people down the mountain to invite some village officials to go up the mountain, saying that Little Fairy had died of a sudden illness. At that time, several village officials also checked and found that she was indeed out of breath. It's..."

Speaking of this, the woman glanced at Chen Yue, swallowed, and continued: "After the village chief came back, he brought the news down, found someone to beat the coffin, and then found a few young people to go up the mountain to take her away." She was buried, Taoist Shi did a ceremony that day, because everyone respected her, every family in our village went to attend the ceremony, and I was there on the day of the burial, so it was indeed buried. I don’t know why..."

The woman looked at Chen Yue and became a little scared again.

"Is Taoist Shi still on the mountain?" Ye Shaoyang asked.

"Yes, I just went up to the mountain to burn incense the day before yesterday, and I saw her coming. I saw that she was aging quickly, and I persuaded her a few words... Oh, little fairy, if you are not dead, who will be buried?"

How could Chen Yue answer.

Ye Shaoyang saw that it was almost done, asked the location of the Taoist temple, then said goodbye to the couple, and led Chen Yue up the mountain to find Taoist Shi.

Chen Yue's face was very solemn, and she lowered her head along the way.

"Do you remember what they said?" Ye Shaoyang asked tentatively.

Chen Yue nodded, "Thinking about it, they should be right. I just don't know why they all said I was dead."

Ye Shaoyang thought for a while and said: "There is a big problem with this matter. I paid attention to the time they said. You died more than a month ago. At that time, it was the time when the Holy Spirit would arrest people and throw them into the illusory space. It is estimated that you went in at that time, as for why you died... there must be something tricky here."

Chen Yue frowned.

Guagua persuaded: "Mother, don't think too much, anyway, you didn't really die, you are a living person now, what are you afraid of. When you see your master, just ask carefully."

The Taoist temple is on the top of the mountain, almost built on the cliff. Looking from a distance, it does not occupy a large area. There is only one courtyard. It's no different. From the top of the mountain, you have to cross a stone bridge.

Chen Yue stood at the head of the bridge, looking at Dao with deep eyes.

"What do you remember?" Ye Shaoyang asked.

"A little bit..." Chen Yue glanced at him and said, "I don't want to go there anymore."

"Why." Ye Shaoyang was surprised.

"I'm a little nervous, afraid of facing my own identity."

Just as Ye Shaoyang wanted to persuade him, Chen Yue smiled at him and walked towards the bridge.

On the front of the Taoist temple, two vermilion wooden doors were joined together. Ye Shaoyang pushed it and locked it from the inside. After knocking for a long time, there was no movement inside. He was studying where the courtyard wall would be better to climb over. Chen Yue told him about the Taoist temple. There is a back door.

"How do you know?" Ye Shaoyang replied casually.

"Think about it." Chen Yue said and walked along the wall.

Ye Shaoyang followed behind and went around to the back door together. Outside the back door is the top of the mountain. A gravel road leads to a small platform on the cliff. There is a small wooden pavilion on it, facing the sky on three sides, which looks quite unique. artistic conception. ()
