I studied abroad in modern times

Zheng Fa and his two friends arrived in Beijing around nine o'clock in the evening.

When they arrived at the nursing home, it was almost twelve o'clock in the evening.

It was getting late, so the three of them simply stayed in the village at the foot of the mountain.

This village is close to Beijing, and there are probably some tourists from Beijing, so there are also several homestays or farmhouses in the village.

Zheng Fa and his two friends picked the one that they felt was the best decorated.

Early the next morning, Zheng Fa and his two friends got up and prepared to go out.

The owner of the homestay had also gotten up and was fiddling with a selfie stick in the yard in front of the homestay, as if looking for an angle.

"Are you up?"

The owner was a man who looked to be in his early thirties. He greeted them when he saw the three of them coming downstairs.

"Well, boss, what are you doing?"

Zheng Fa looked at his movements and asked curiously.

"Oh, this, I'm going to find a background for the live broadcast!" The owner of the homestay explained.

"Live broadcast?"

"Hey, promote it online. Our place is not well-known enough." The boss said, "Look, I'm here. Not only can I see my house behind me, but also Hongshan Mountain."

"Hongshan Mountain?"

Zheng Fa looked at the hill behind him, where the nursing home was built.

"Yes, this mountain is called Hongshan in our village. It's a tourist attraction here." The boss said casually.

Zheng Fa thought about it and was not in a hurry to leave. After all, he might practice here for a long time in the future, and it would be good to understand the local situation.

"Boss, what's your last name?"

The boss looked at him, then at the old man and Tang Lingwu behind him, and seemed to be a little confused as to why Zheng Fa seemed to be the main one among the three.

"No need to mention it, my last name is Mu."

"Are you a local?"

"Yes, I grew up here." Boss Mu looked at him suspiciously, as if he thought it was a bit strange for him to ask about this: "I used to work in the city, but later I couldn't make it, so I came back."

Zheng Fa looked around the homestay.

The two-story building is decorated quite modernly.

It can be seen that it has some European minimalist style, which is popular in recent years.

It should not be cheap.

"Boss, if you can't make it in this business, you are being modest. I'm afraid you will return home with wealth."

Boss Mu waved his hands when he heard it, but he couldn't help but look a little proud on his face.

"Boss, what is the origin of Hongshan?"

Tang Lingwu asked very discerningly.

Zheng Fa praised him.

Being asked by a beautiful girl like Tang Lingwu, the boss seemed to be in a good mood.

"Hongshan, only locals like me know about this." He said with a little mystery: "If you go up the mountain and walk to the back of the mountain, you will find a temple, which enshrines Hongshan Niangniang."

"..."

Zheng Fa and the other two looked at each other. They really didn't know about this.

"Hongshan Niangniang?"

"Yes, according to the old legend, a few hundred years ago, one day, a rainbow suddenly fell in this mountain, and a fairy descended from the sky. She cured diseases and saved lives in the village, and solved problems." The boss said, and he seemed very skilled in speaking: "Later, the legend of Hongshan Niangniang was left, and this mountain was called Hongshan - I tell you, this Niangniang temple is very effective!"

"Effective bullshit!"

Before Zheng Fa and the others could say anything, an old female voice cursed.

An old woman who looked to be in her seventies or eighties walked out of the B\u0026B.

Boss Mu shouted helplessly: "Grandma! These are all legends in our village!"

"You promote this stuff on the Internet every day! It's all fake!" The old woman scolded: "When the village demolished the temple decades ago, no gods struck us down."

"This is... an allusion, an old attraction! I'm doing this to attract customers!"

"Old ass! If it weren't for the dog from the Wang family getting rich, he insisted that the feng shui on this mountain was prosperous and built a new one. There would be no Niangniang Temple - this temple is not even as big as your son!"

"..."

...

Zheng Fa and the other two said goodbye to Boss Mu, who was a little autistic, and walked up the mountain.

They went to see the nursing home first.

The main building of the nursing home has almost been built.

Entering the gate and walking along the road made of white stone slabs, there is a clump of transplanted jungle on the right and a mountain spring on the left.

Behind the bamboo forest is the main body of the nursing home, a three-story building in the shape of a Chinese character "品".

The two wings of the small building have only one floor each, and only the middle one has the highest three floors.

The decoration style of this building is more classical, except that the walls are white and the tiles on the roof are green. Standing in the mountains, it complements the green mountains and the white clouds in the sky, and it is quite quiet.

After passing the small building, there is a large open space.

Zheng Fa wanted to try to cultivate spiritual plants in this place. At this time, he just cleared the weeds and leveled the land, and there was no decoration.

After passing the open space, Zheng Fa and the other two arrived at the residence reserved for themselves.

This is a two-story building, which is much higher than other places, as if overlooking the entire nursing home.

From the outside, the building seems to be embedded in the mountain wall, integrated with the mountain, and the building cannot be seen from a distance.

This was designed by Tang Lingwu.

As she walked, she introduced: "The first thing I consider about the place where we live is privacy."

Zheng Fa nodded.

The three of them have to engage in feudal superstitious activities from time to time, so it is indeed not good to be too high-profile.

"Built it here, farthest from other people. When the tree my mother bought arrives in two days, we will surround this place. Even with a telescope, we can't see what we are doing."

"The large floor-to-ceiling windows here not only provide better lighting, but more importantly, the view down the mountain is the most beautiful from this angle."

Zheng Fa walked into the small building and looked out the window.

The scenery in the mountains is indeed unobstructed.

"Also, these furniture, electrical appliances and decorations are all randomly selected by me... If you are not satisfied with anything, I will find someone to replace it!"

Tang Lingwu said again.

Zheng Fa turned to look at her and saw her looking at him slightly uneasily.

Turn around and look indoors again.

This small building looks a bit quaint and even unremarkable from the outside.

But the interior is very exquisite.

Zheng Fa has never lived in a good house in modern times, but he can also see that there are some furniture and electrical appliances in it, and the layout of the entire house hides Tang Lingwu's thoughts - it can't be said to be casual.

The nobility and hard work can actually be seen at a glance...

"I'm very satisfied."

Zheng Fa nodded slightly.

He is not a person who cares too much about external things.

What's more, it's not like he can't appreciate Tang Lingwu's meticulousness.

"Don't you have any other requirements?"

Tang Lingwu pursed her lips and smiled, seeming to be relieved. She looked worried and asked a question.

Zheng Fa shook his head.

"I have!"

On the side, Old Man Bai suddenly said.

"ah?"

Tang Lingwu looked at Old Man Bai in confusion.

"My room, stay away from you two!" Old Man Bai looked at them sideways, with a look of disgust on his face.

…

After visiting the nursing home, Zheng Fa started the most important task of his visit to the capital - practicing the Lingshan method.

He stood in the clearing.

With his eyes closed, he recalled the master's records in Lingshan Dharma in his mind.

The mountain topography of Hongshan is in line with what the leader calls the turtle-snake spiritual vein - from the "Spiritual Vein Theory", the location of the nursing home is on the back of the turtle.

Zheng Fa opened his eyes and walked slowly on the ground.

His steps were erratic, but seemed to follow a certain pattern, and his speed was getting faster and faster.

The two old men on the side were a little dizzy, and in the end they couldn't even see his figure clearly.

Gradually, Zheng Fa's clothes seemed to be shining with starlight. Following his footsteps, the starlight turned into streaks of light.

Even though it was summer and the sun was still high in the sky, the light around Zheng Fa still made the two old men feel dazzling.

Suddenly, Zheng Fa's footsteps stopped.

He flicked his right hand continuously, and two spiritual talismans flew towards the sky.

Flying all the way to the highest point of the mountain, which is the top of the "turtle's back".

Flying all the way to a slightly lower hilltop, which is where the "snake head" is.

As the two spiritual talismans flew out, the starlight around Zheng Fa actually followed the two spiritual talismans and flew to two places - in the eyes of the two old men, the two spiritual talismans were like two small kites.

And this starlight is like two looming lines, connecting Zheng Fa and these two spiritual talismans.

The two talismans flew so fast that they could not be seen by the naked eye.

But in Zheng Fa's eyes, as soon as the two spiritual talismans reached the target location, they quickly shattered and scattered into broken light spots, immersed in the mountain.

Zheng Fa had an inexplicable feeling that he and the Hongshan Mountain at his feet seemed to be connected as one.

The spiritual power in his dantian suddenly seemed to boil, turning into clouds and surging out of his body.

…

At the bottom of the mountain, in the B\u0026B that Zheng Fa had just left in the morning.

Boss Mu is doing a live broadcast to promote his B\u0026B.

"Yes, yes, two days and one night, only 198! Three days and two nights are as low as 248!"

“Only ten orders are discounted! Ten orders are gone!”

"What's fun? We have beautiful mountains and clear waters here. It would be great to eat some farm food and go hiking!"

"Let me tell you, there is a legend in Hongshan Mountain here..."

He once again told the legend he told Zheng Fa before.

There were not many people in the live broadcast room, and they were all saying "old fashioned" and "disbelief" at this time.

He was not discouraged and started talking about the farm food in the village.

"Anchor! Anchor! Turn around!"

Suddenly, an audience member said.

"Look back?"

Boss Mu’s face was a little confused.

"The spirit has appeared! The Empress of Hongshan has appeared!"

When Boss Mu turned around, he saw a rainbow bridge across the mountains, clear and beautiful.

"It hasn't rained in the past two days..."

Boss Mu muttered, and saw another scene that surprised him even more——

Above the Hongshan Mountain, an overwhelming flock of birds suddenly flew out. They flew in groups, flying around the top of the mountain and the Hongqiao.

The chirping of birds echoed throughout the mountains, which seemed extremely joyful.

Boss Mu couldn't help but take two steps, wanting to take a closer look.

Then, he saw his grandma in the house, kneeling in front of the incense table, mumbling.

"Milk?"

"Mother, I didn't mean to offend..."

"Milk?"

"Don't attack me, attack that old man from the Wang family, he was the leader back then!" His grandmother ignored him at all: "Don't look at him building a temple for you, his grandson and son of a bitch, even the money he makes is unconscionable - but Don’t be fooled by him!”

"..."
