Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 354, the beginning of the day

The two chatted and chatted, and they talked about life in the Taoist temple.

"I used to live in a Taoist temple. I didn't have anything else to do except study some Taoist scriptures every day, but I was still very happy. Facing the green mountains and green waters every day, I felt at ease, and my life was full of joy. "Ming Ye recalled his life in the Taoist temple, and said: "However, there are also unhappy things, because I am the youngest junior sister, whether it is farming or carrying water, these heavier tasks are all done by them. Sometimes when I want to help, they will take care of themselves and won't let me do it. In fact, I can do all these things. They always treat me like a child, obviously Junior Sister Hanxiang is younger than me, but Can do so many things.”

Ming Ye complained, complaining that she was treated like a child.

Han Xiang, who was listening on the side, had an obedient face, exactly like a young little sister.

Li Yun next to him smiled and said nothing, Han Xiang is older than you by how many years.

Hanxiang said at the same time.

"The youngest children always get all kinds of special treatment, it's the same everywhere."

"Ah, I'm really looking forward to it. I don't know what your life in Taoist temples is like." Mingye was curious about the baby, looking forward to the next study days.

After packing up his things, Li Yun was unambiguous, took out a bucket of water from the backyard and said.

"Then there is no delay, let's start today. First of all, start with carrying water. There is a clear spring on the mountainside, and bring back a bucket of water from there. This is your task for today."

"Oh, a bucket of water, isn't it, what a joke." Looking at the bucket, Ming Ye swallowed, looked at his own thin arms, and didn't hesitate, took the bucket and started to fetch water. .

From the point of view of figure, Ming Ye is very slender, and it is a bit strenuous to carry an empty bucket, but Li Yun's heart is not fluctuating, he just watched Ming Ye go up the mountain, waving along the way.

"Xiaobai, go and have a look, don't let the animals attack her."

"Okay."

Xiao Bai, who hung up the phone on the eaves of the backyard, flew up, following Ming Ye's back.

"Brother, can she really do it? Her strength is very small." Han Xiang looked at Ming Ye's back, and was a little worried about whether she could do these things. A bucket full of water weighs a lot.

"I have to do it if I can, and I have to do it if I can't. This is what she has to do. Brother, I have my own arrangements." Li Yun shook his head, looked at the neat envelope in his hand, and said lightly: "Actually, her master asked me to do it." Coming to our Taoist temple tomorrow night, I just want to give her a choice."

"Choose."

Han Xiang watched Ming Ye's back gradually disappearing into the forest with half understanding.

When Mingye came back to the Taoist temple with a bucket of water, it was already afternoon. As soon as he came back, Mingye smelled an inexplicable aroma of rice.

After entering the door, I found that Han Xiang and Li Yun had already started eating, and there was a stupid husky beside him, wagging its tail frantically, eating the rice on the plate in a painful position.

"You're back." Li Yun ate the rice calmly and gracefully.

"Yes. I'm back." Ming Ye put the bucket on the ground and said weakly, "Where did the water come from?"

Li Yun put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, and said with a smile on his face: "There is a well in the backyard of the Taoist temple, and water can be fetched at any time, and the water quality is better, pure natural, and pollution-free."

Mingye: "."

"Then what's the point of me going to the mountains to fetch water?" Ming Ye limply in the corner with a speechless face, without any strength at all, and looked spoiled.

"The rice cooker is in the kitchen. You can make it yourself. Remember to wash it after eating. I will use the water in the bucket you fetched." Li Yun paused for a moment and did not answer Ming Ye directly. He just said, "By the way, take a bath. Also, use the water in the bucket, not the water in the backyard, so please use water wisely.”

Li Yun's face made Mingye feel as warm as it did this morning, but the words he said were not warm at all
"Uh alright."

Being under the eaves, she has to bow her head. Ming Ye has no complaints about this. She just has one attitude towards life, and that is optimism.

"Nothing can defeat Ming Ye's!"

After Mingye finished pumping himself up, he went to the kitchen to pick up a bowl, intending to scoop up the rice, but saw a bowl of uncooked rice, a strip of pickles, and a few sticks of firewood next to the rice pot.

Looking at these things, Ming Ye instantly felt tired and unloved.
"Okay, you have to do it yourself"

After a while of tossing, whether it was cooking and washing dishes, or boiling water for bathing, Mingye finished it all by himself, but the process was not very smooth. The portion that he ate was pitifully small, and it was still raw. The only thing that relieved Ming Ye was that the rice was not so delicious. Even if there was only a little bit of it to eat, he was still full.

It didn't go well, but I went through my day completely, from carrying water to cooking to taking a bath, I did it myself.

As soon as he relaxed, Mingye felt his whole body go limp, and came to his own room, a small guest room, some old but clean quilts, and a small wooden box next to it, which can be used for changing and washing clothing.

"It seems that Guanzhu Yun is not so inhuman."

Mingye looked at the clean bedding and pillows, and knew that he still had to support himself for everything.

At this time, Han Xiang brought in a cup of hot water from outside and put it on Ming Ye's table.

"Junior Sister Mingye, you must be very tired."

"Well, I'm really tired. My whole body is paralyzed. It's not something ordinary people can do to carry water from the mountain. In the past, the senior sisters also carried water from the mountain. There is no well in our Taoist temple. Everyone needs to take turns. Carrying water." Ming Ye felt a little embarrassed when she said that, it was so hard for my senior sister to carry water in the Taoist temple before, and it was because I was too weak and lacked the necessary exercise that I felt tired carrying water from the mountain down the mountain.

"Senior brother told you to do this must have your own meaning." Hanxiang grinned and passed the hot water.

"Thank you." Ming Ye took the hot water, took a sip, took a long sigh of relief, lay down on the bed, and said, "I just didn't expect that you were so gentle before, and you turned around and asked me to do this and that." Yes, it’s just that the contrast is a bit big, it’s almost like a different person.”

Looking at Ming Ye who complained a little bit, Han Xiang said with a smile on her face.

"I'm here to remind you, get up on time when the sun rises tomorrow morning."
