Sword from the Immortal Mountain

Chapter 57: 57: The blind thing

As for Yunshan Temple, Chen Jin had actually wanted to take a look at it for a long time.

According to the villagers, it is a place where immortals practice cultivation and it is the most prominent and famous sect in the entire Genshui County.

Chen Jin naturally did not believe in the so-called "immortals". It was just a respectful title given by ordinary people to monks.

If the master of Yunshan Temple can become a god, then Chen Jin is someone who is above the gods.

The nature of many human affairs in this world is like this. Once you break that filter and lose the related sacredness, they are nothing more than that.

Chen Jin's curiosity about Yunshan Temple lies not in the people there, but in the location of the Taoist temple itself.

Yunshan.

It should be a nice mountain.

Compared with Chen Jin's indifference, Chen Min was undoubtedly extremely excited and excited. Various emotions and thoughts were intertwined in his mind, appearing mixed and chaotic.

While I was excited, I also felt uneasy, worried whether I would be noticed by the immortals in the Taoist temple.

Outsiders had no idea about the relationship between Chen Jin and the abbot of Yunshan Temple. They were all guessing, thinking that the abbot favored and appreciated Chen Jin.

As for the friendship, it should not be deep.

This time when Chen Jin takes Chen Min to Yunshan Temple, he might have to ask for help from others.

Since you are asking for help, shouldn’t you prepare gifts?

Chen Abu couldn't offer any decent gift. He couldn't just take the old hen he kept at home. As for money, there was even less he could do. That little bit of copper coins would not be worthy of the Taoist priest's attention.

However, Chen Jin said, "No need," and the gifts were already prepared and put in the bookcase.

Chen Abu didn't say much.

This time, there was no need to borrow a mule cart from Chen Liang's house. As his family's financial situation improved, Chen Abu had an idea, so he asked someone to build a mule cart, and suddenly he became the "car owner" in the village.

And now, it comes in handy.

Of course, we can't use oxen to pull the cart, so we can just use the donkey.

The donkey is inferior to the mule cart in terms of endurance and speed, but it is more docile in temperament.

But there is still a problem: no one is willing to be the driver.

Of course Chen Abu wanted to go together, but his wife, Chen Li, was in poor health. Although it was not time for her to give birth yet, she had to be taken care of by her. If anything went wrong, it would be troublesome.

Chen Jin said: "It's okay, I'll drive the car."

"How about that?"

Chen Abu disagreed: "How about that? We can hire someone. Old man Chen at the entrance of the village is a good driver."

"No need to go through so much trouble. Even if I don't rush, Wangcai can do it."

"Prosperous wealth?"

Chen Jin waved his hand and said, "Wangcai, chase one and have a look."

"Wang!"

Wangcai received the order and quickly jumped onto the shaft of the cart. He shouted and the donkey obediently walked forward.

Chen Abu: “…”

Chen Min: "..."

The dog can drive a car, it's really amazing.

Chen Jin didn't want to delay on these trivial matters: "It's settled, we'll leave now."

"So urgent? Why not wait until tomorrow morning?"

Chen Abu was always a little worried.

Chen Jin said: "There is nothing to wait for. Anyway, we have to stay overnight on the way from the village to Yunshan Temple."

"Okay, then be careful along the way."

Chen Abu no longer insisted.

The last time Chen Jin went out to study alone, he left peacefully and returned safely. This made him clearly realize the changes and differences of his nephew. He was no longer the weak scholar who only knew how to stay in the house to read and write, but a man of great ability.

Chen Jin and Wangcai sat on the shaft of the cart, while Chen Min sat in the carriage, and they set off, leaving Chenze Township. Before they had gone a short distance, Chen Min couldn't help but stick his head out of his head to see how Wangcai drove the cart.

But I saw that the dog was just sitting there, without any movement, the donkey automatically trotted forward, very obediently.

It seems that the donkey is obedient and does not need to be driven. Wangcai is just acting as a driver.

Of course, the girl didn’t know that if necessary, Wangcai could also grab the bamboo whip with his claws and swing it to control her.

It can even take the place of the donkey and perform a dog pulling a cart.

There were just pedestrians walking on the road, so it wouldn't shock people.

There was no conversation along the way, and in the evening, we arrived at a place called "Fenjie Town". There was an inn in the town for merchants to rest, and although the conditions were simple, there was no big problem.

Since there was no need to rush, Chen Jin chose to spend the night in the town, rest up, and set off again tomorrow.

The next day we got up early, had breakfast and continued our journey.

It was another day on the road. Chen Min was bored and started sewing shoe soles in the car.

As for Chen Jin, the easiest way to kill time is to close his eyes and rest, which is his daily practice.

It is neither boring nor lonely. One person’s world is equal to the entire world.

In the evening, dusk fell.

Chen Jin suddenly opened his eyes and looked up.

Not far ahead, there was a market place, which was quite bustling.

But when we got here, the official road was obviously much wider and had been repaired and compacted, so it would not be muddy even in windy and snowy weather.

Here, we have entered the geographical scope of Yunshan.

Yunshan is called a mountain, but the area it covers is really not small. It stretches in all directions and forms a large area.

The market in front was obviously built based on Yunshan.

Looking further away, you can see a mountain rising from the ground. It is not majestic, and the first impression it gives people is the word "steep".

It is high and steep, reaching straight into the clouds.

The name "Yunshan" comes from this.

The highest peak was completely covered by clouds and could not be seen clearly at all.

I don’t know whether Yunshan Temple is built on the top of the mountain.

But soon, Chen Jin realized that the Taoist temple should be located halfway up the mountain.

Because at this moment, a lantern was lit high up there, and the light inside was like an eye, looking down at the surroundings.

When seeing the lights, Chen Jin thought of the master of Yunshan Temple.

It is intriguing, then, that the Taoist temple is not on the top of a mountain but is located in the mountains.

“Gee, gee, gee! Move aside the donkey cart in front! Don’t block the road!”

Suddenly there was a shouting sound from behind.

However, the donkey cart was unmanned, so how could it react in a short time? It continued to move slowly.

Gotta get it!
The strong horse galloped past him dangerously and almost hit him.

When Chen Min heard the scolding, she was about to lift the car curtain and stick her head out to see what was going on, but she was almost scratched in the face. She was so scared that her face turned pale.

This is a two-passenger carriage, pulled by two tall and majestic horses. The tall carriage is even more gorgeously decorated, full of wealth and luxury.

There was a flag on it with the word "Zhao" embroidered on it, fluttering in the wind.

"Things with no eyes!"

The carriage whizzed past, and the strong man driving it was still cursing foul language.

Chen Jin patted Wangcai’s head.

Wangcai suddenly grinned, his eyes flashed with ferocity, he jumped off the donkey cart, spread his four legs and chased after it.
