Chapter 3215 Shen Tianyu 615

Suddenly, Master Mao Jun let out a loud shout, forcefully swung his whisk above Gu Chufan's head, then bit his index finger and smeared the blood from his fingertip onto Gu Chufan's forehead.

He muttered a few more words, then put away his whisk, stopped his ritualistic steps, walked to the prayer mat, sat cross-legged, and closed his eyes without moving.

His face was slightly redder than before, and there was a fine sheen of sweat on his forehead.

Only the three of them were inside; the other disciples had already left.

Shen Tianyu took out a tissue and wiped the sweat from Mao Junzhen's brow.

Master Mao closed his eyes and said, "My beloved disciple, have you remembered everything?"

Shen Tianyu replied, "I've got it."

"The incantation I recited was in ancient language; I'll translate it for you later."

"it is good."

"Take Chu Fan to rest; he's recovered. Let him continue taking the tonic you prepared, but reduce the dosage by half."

Shen Tianyu responded, walked over to Gu Chufan, and helped him up.

As they left, Shen Tianyu asked Gu Chufan, "How did it go?"

Gu Chufan said, "I feel a very magical power flowing through my body. I can't describe that power. Also, my forehead is very hot and my mind is clear. The fatigue and stickiness I used to feel have disappeared, and I am full of energy."

Shen Tianyu knew that although Guo Xu's remnant soul was a heroic spirit.

However, the spirit is not a yang body and has been cleansed by yin winds for many years. It resides in Gu Chufan's body, and even if it withdraws, it will still have a certain impact on the host.

Gu Jinzhou was somewhat better off because he had martial arts skills.

Gu Chufan was different.

After escorting Gu Chufan back to his room to rest, Shen Tianyu instructed, "Don't wipe the blood off his forehead for now. Let him stay for three days before we do anything else."

"Okay, bro, you go and get some rest."

Shen Tianyu, however, did not go to rest.

He turned around and returned to the Taoist temple of Master Mao Jun.

Master Mao remained seated on the futon, meditating with his eyes closed.

Shen Tianyu took a glass of warm water, held it to his lips, and said, "Master, please drink some water."

Master Mao slowly opened his eyes. "Why didn't you go to sleep?"

"Tired?"

Master Mao laughed heartily, "Not bad. Kid, you look aloof, but I didn't expect you to be so considerate."

He opened his mouth and drank half a glass of water, then wiped his mouth with his hand. "The water my beloved student poured is really sweet."

Shen Tianyu thought to himself, "Just like Jing Hong, he can't be serious for more than three seconds."

He put down the cup and reached out to take Mao Junzhen's arm, saying, "Let me help you to the bedroom to rest."

Master Mao said, "I can walk by myself."

“Master, there’s no need to be stubborn. If you were really able to walk, you would have gone back to your room to rest long ago. You wouldn’t be sitting here cross-legged in meditation.”

Master Mao was taken aback, then laughed and scolded, "You brat, why did you have to say it out loud? Don't you think your master has any face? It's not that I can't walk, I'm just a little tired and want to rest for a while before I go."

Shen Tianyu remained silent and helped him up.

Mao Junzhen's legs felt a little weak.

But he still pretended nothing was wrong, afraid that Shen Tianyu would think he was inferior to Dugu Cheng.

Although his skills surpassed those of Dugu Cheng.

The next day.

When the sun was high in the sky, Mao Junzhen finally awoke.

He got up, summoned his disciples, and instructed them, "Help me pack my luggage. I'm going on a long trip and won't be back for three to five months."

The disciple was taken aback. "Master, you've been gone for so long. What will happen to the temple without a master? What if someone comes looking for you?"

Master Mao raised his eyes and looked out the window into the distance, saying, "Although I always say I am still young, my memory and energy are not what they used to be. While my mind is still relatively clear, I will pass on what needs to be passed on. What about attaining immortality? How many people have truly attained immortality throughout history? Everyone is keeping it to themselves, and humanity will only regress. I hope that Tianyu can stand on my shoulders and carry forward our Taoist arts."

The disciple deeply admired Shen Tianyu.

However, he lacked comprehension and had poor physical constitution, so he could only do menial tasks in the temple.

Shen Tianyu got up early and went to check on Gu Chufan. Seeing that he was safe and sound, he went to find Master Mao Jun.

He wanted to learn the art of the Substitute Ghost as soon as possible so he could return to Kyoto.

As soon as they entered the temple, they saw Master Mao Jun dressed in a gray-white Taoist robe, holding a whisk in one hand and a gray bundle in the other.

Shen Tianyu asked, "Master, do you have something to do and need to go down the mountain?"

Master Mao smiled and said, "Yes, I have to go on a long trip."

"Approximately how long will it take you to be back?"

"What? You're reluctant to part with your teacher?"

Shen Tianyu could only say "I can't bear to part with it" to Yuan Jinzhi.

He simply couldn't bring himself to say it to the over-eighty-year-old Taoist priest.

Besides, they weren't at the point where they couldn't bear to part.

Seeing that he remained silent, Master Mao Jun laughed loudly, "You brat, I won't tease you anymore. I've had someone pack your bags and come down the mountain with you to the capital. I'll come and teach you. That way you won't miss your wife and daughter and be restless."

This speed was beyond Shen Tianyu's expectations.

Shen Tianyu picked up his phone. "I'll book the plane tickets."

"I already had it booked, for you, me, and Chu Fan."

A plaintive voice came from outside the pavilion, "Didn't you book mine?"

Master Mao looked outside the temple and said loudly, "Sorry, I forgot."

Jing Hong was furious. "Grandpa, you can't be this obviously biased! It's just a plane ticket, a simple matter of asking for money, and you can forget about it? I think you're doing this on purpose. Is it fun to deliberately ignore me? Tianyu wants Jinzhi, but I don't want Xuexue? I left Xuexue and Jingbai to come all the way to Maoshan to help you with your important matter of accepting disciples, and this is how you treat me? How is this any different from crossing the river and burning the bridge?"

"Yes. Others may discard the bridge after crossing the river, but I didn't do that to you."

Jing Hong got even angrier, "You want to tear me apart?"

“We won’t demolish it. You can stay on the mountain with your parents for a day, and then go back to Kyoto tomorrow.”

Jing Hong retorted angrily, "I booked my own plane tickets, I don't need you! My dad has my mom with him, and my mom has my dad with him, they don't need me to accompany them. But you, praising one and belittling the other, it's truly disheartening!"

Mao Jun's face was all smiles, like a dahlia.

He moved closer to Shen Tianyu, stood on tiptoe, and brought his mouth close to Shen's ear.

Shen Tianyu lowered his head, yielding to his height.

Master Mao Jun looked smug and said in a breathy voice, as if seeking credit, "My dear disciple, do you feel better now? If Jing Hong ever makes you unhappy again, I will avenge you."

Shen Tianyu said, "Thank you, Master."

But in my heart I thought, both the old man and the young man are so childish.

If he's stuck in the middle for too long, will he get infected?

He really dislikes being such an unreliable person.

That day, the three flew back to Kyoto.

After settling Mao Junzhen in, Shen Tianyu got his car and waited at the entrance of Yuan Jinzhi's workplace.

He didn't tell her beforehand, wanting to surprise her.

Yuan Jinzhi and Jing Hua came out of the main gate and immediately spotted Shen Tianyu's car.

She was pleasantly surprised.

I thought we would be apart for several days, but I didn't expect to see him again so soon.

She quickened her pace and walked towards the car.

Shen Tianyu quickly opened the car door and moved to her side.
