Tsk tsk, Taoist Qingyuan couldn't help but marvel in his heart. He thought the little girl came to care about Song Heng, but he didn't expect it to start like this, with no ups and downs in her tone.
He couldn't help but look back at Song Che.
Song Che rolled up his hands and coughed twice, somewhat helplessly: "Miss Su Si is different from ordinary girls."
After whispering a few words, someone inside heard some noise and asked vigilantly, "Who's outside?"
Unable to hide it any longer, Taoist Qingyuan stood up as if nothing had happened and walked into the room with an open mind. His eyes first glanced at Song Heng, and then at Su Yao who was sitting next to him.
Then he couldn't help but be stunned.
The girl's appearance was totally inconsistent with her icy voice. She had a very gentle and bright appearance, like the colorful clouds spread by the Weaver Girl in the sky at dusk. Her eyes were misty and full of ripples, which reminded people of the camellia flowers blooming in the mountains in the early morning.
He nodded generously and praised: "What a good-looking little girl."
If someone else complimented someone's appearance when meeting them for the first time, people would inevitably feel frivolous and offended, but Taoist Qingyuan said it very fluently and naturally.
He is praising you sincerely, which is no different from praising the flowers on the roadside or the moon in the sky.
And just as he finished speaking, Taoist Qingyuan said: "And you, a girl, have an interesting face. There is clearly a sense of death lingering between your brows..."
"You're talking nonsense again!" Song Heng interrupted him unhappily, feeling that what he said today was a bit too much.
Su Yao's heart skipped a beat, and then he suddenly looked up at Taoist Qingyuan.
Qingyuan... ..
Zhang Qingyuan... ..
People from the Tianshi Dao of Longhu Mountain!
Since Zhang Daoling achieved great success in practicing Taoism and refining elixirs at Mount Longhu, starting from the fourth generation Heavenly Master Zhang Sheng in the late Han Dynasty, successive Heavenly Masters have lived here, guarding Mount Longhu in search of immortals and magic, sitting in the Qing Palace to preach and spread the Dharma, living in the Heavenly Master's Mansion to cultivate their bodies and minds. The Taoist tradition has been inherited for forty-six generations, and they have been worshipped and conferred titles by successive dynasties, and have been promoted to the highest official rank, the highest position among the ministers.
The previous dynasty highly respected the Tianshi Dao, and even when Taizu came to power, he still showed great favor to the Tianshi Dao.
The same was naturally true for Emperor Yuanfeng.
He seized his brother's position at that time and made a special trip to Longhu Mountain. After that, the Heavenly Master personally confirmed that he was the real dragon in the world, and he accepted the canonization from Emperor Yuanfeng.
When Emperor Yuanfeng went to Longhu Mountain, he brought the then young crown prince with him.
It is said that when Emperor Yuanfeng went there, the Heavenly Master's son happened to be in trouble. Emperor Yuanfeng even made a joke, pointing at the young prince and saying: "The fate between me and you is like the fate between me and your son."
Then he personally gave the child a name.
If I remember correctly, Su Yao suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhang Qingyuan with surprise and doubt.
Zhang Qingyuan also waved to Song Heng, staring at Su Yao solemnly for a while before saying, "Miss Su, your fate is really strange. You are clearly destined to die, but there is a sense of life entangled in you..."
He smiled and said, "It's amazing. You are so lucky."
Su Yao didn't know how to respond for a moment. She felt that it was unbelievable to tell anyone about her rebirth, so even to Old Lady Su and Mrs. He, she just said it was a dream and a manifestation of the Bodhisattva.
Now that she was exposed, she was a little flustered, but soon calmed down, looked up at Zhang Qingyuan, and asked frankly: "Then may I ask you, do I have more vitality or more death now?"
Taoist Qingyuan laughed, but refused to mention it again. Instead, he asked Su Yao with interest: "Do you know me?"
The other person obviously didn't want to answer, so Su Yao stopped asking and just shook his head and said, "Not really, it's just... If I say that I once dreamed about the Taoist priest, I wonder if you would believe it?"
Song Che and Song Heng had no idea what the two were talking about and looked quite confused.
Taoist Qingyuan laughed: "Others say I don't believe it, but you tell me, how much do I believe it?" He flicked his sleeves and sat down next to Song Heng naturally, and then said to Su Yao: "Tell me, little girl, what do you want to tell me through your dream?"
It turns out that the dream theory cannot fool people who are truly capable.
Su Yao did not hesitate any longer. She sat opposite Taoist Qingyuan and said straight to the point, "To be honest, Taoist, I once dreamt that you were beheaded and died without a complete body."
As soon as these words came out, not only Song Heng, but also Song Che's expression suddenly changed. If Song Heng hadn't pulled Song Che's clothes, Song Che almost wanted to scold Su Yao for being so bold.
But Taoist Qingyuan was still calm. He said, "Oh," holding his chin, "No wonder my forehead is dark. Miss Su, can you tell me why I died in your dream?"
When talking to people who understand, there is no need to hide things.
Su Yao didn't want to play dumb with Taoist Qingyuan. She looked at him seriously and said softly, "Practicing witchcraft and curses on the Holy Saint..."
Song Che always boasted that he was a man who could stand up to hardships. He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air when he heard this. He really couldn't help it and frowned and said, "Miss Su, don't talk nonsense!"
How can you say such things casually
Song Heng did not say anything. He looked at Su Yao seriously, then turned to look at Taoist Qingyuan, and finally said, "Grandfather, Fourth Miss Su is not someone who speaks without purpose. She must have her reasons for saying this."
Song Che felt that the idea of being able to foresee the future through dreams was too bizarre and strange. He frowned and said, "How can we believe in ghosts and gods? It's just a dream."
Taoist Qingyuan looked into Su Yao's eyes quietly, and then raised his hand to stop Song Che, and asked calmly: "In your dream, after I died, what happened to Song Heng?"
Song Che suddenly stared at Su Yao nervously.
Su Yao lowered his eyes.
She still remembered what happened to everyone in the Song family after Prince Zhuang ascended the throne. She was silent for a moment before she said, "The entire family was executed. Lai Weiqi personally led people to arrest them, and then killed all the Song family members on the grounds that Marquis Guangping disobeyed the emperor's order... Only Song Heng survived, and he later went to Shu..."
It was getting more and more bizarre. Song Che wanted to say it was nonsense, but he didn't know why. When Su Yao looked at him, he suddenly felt cold all over.
It's really weird.
He was a man who had been through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but he felt a chill in his heart when he was looked at by such a little girl.
Perhaps it was because Su Yao's look was too desperate, and he subconsciously felt that what she said was true.
Taoist Priest Qingyuan also fell silent.
After an unknown amount of time, he also sat down and said to Su Yao: "That's interesting. Go on."
