I just traveled through time and you told me that Taoism is gone?

Not long after, the three of them arrived at Ma Yuan Mali's residence.

Zhao Xuanling raised his head and looked at the large four-story villa in front of him and couldn't help but sigh:

"You are quite rich and live in such a nice place."

Zhao Xuanling saw the big villa in front of him and thought about the small shabby house he lived in in the Taoist temple before. Compared with this place, it was like a doghouse.

Ma Yuan smiled lightly and said:

"How can there be any money? This is all distributed by the government to us Tiangang League people. Originally, there was one house per person, but when we two brothers saw that such a big house was too big for one person to live in, we simply lived together. This way It’s more convenient for drinking and other things. Don’t look at how big my place is, Master Yuantong’s residence is even more ridiculously big.”

Zhao Xuanling raised his eyebrows and nodded. He didn't expect that the Tiangang Alliance would treat him so well.

The three of them walked into the villa while chatting. As soon as they entered, Zhao Xuanling looked at the decorations in the house curiously.

Zhao Xuanling, who had never been down the mountain very often, felt an inexplicable freshness when looking at everything in the house.

"Ma Li, you go to the kitchen and get some dishes to put the dishes on, and I'll get the wine."

"Taoist Master, please sit down for a while. I'll be back in a moment."

With that said, Ma Yuan walked towards the second floor of the villa.

Zhao Xuanling was not idle either, looking here and there, he was just a curious baby.

While he was researching around, he accidentally touched a hard box under his feet.

"Start cleaning, start cleaning."

A mechanical sound suddenly sounded, and a white disk suddenly jumped out of the hard box.

Zhao Xuanling was startled and subconsciously pulled out the Longquan Sword.

"What a monster!"

"Hey, hey, Taoist priest."

At this time, Ma Li walked out of the kitchen with the dishes. When he saw the scene in front of him, he was startled and said quickly:

"It's okay, Chief Taoist. This is a sweeping robot, used to clean the floor."

Ma Ma secretly sighed at the danger. If he came out a little later, the sweeping robot would definitely be scrapped in Zhao Xuanling's hands.

After hearing this, Zhao Xuanling looked at the so-called sweeping robot that kept running around on the ground with doubt, and put the Longquan Sword back.

Zhao Xuanling squatted down curiously and saw that the place where the sweeping robot passed had indeed become much cleaner. He couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart that such a small thing could sweep cleaner than the big broom in the Taoist temple. It was really amazing.

"Come on, Taoist priest, let's take a seat first."

Ma Ma looked at Zhao Xuanling who was squatting on the ground like a child looking at the sweeping robot and said with a smile.

"Hey."

Zhao Xuanling stood up slowly, but his eyes still stayed on the sweeping robot. This thing was really too novel for him.

Zhao Xuanling didn't look away until he came to the restaurant. As soon as he sat on the dining chair, Zhao Xuanling felt an unprecedented softness.

Zhao Xuanling curiously stretched out his hand and pressed it on the chair. A soft and elastic touch came through his fingers. Zhao Xuanling felt as if he was sitting on cotton.

Compared with the hard wooden stools in the Taoist temple, this chair is indeed much more comfortable.

"Here comes the wine."

Before Ma Yuanren arrived, the voice arrived first.

When Zhao Xuanling heard the news, he saw Ma Yuan holding a big jar in his arms and walking toward the restaurant with a smile.

The jar is exactly the same as the big wine jar used to hold daughter's red wine in ancient times.

When Zhao Xuanling saw the wine coming, he stood up quickly, feeling excited in his heart.

Zhao Xuanling was interested in two things in his life, one was studying Taoism and the other was drinking.

Ma Yuan struggled to carry the big wine jar to the dining table. Such a big jar probably weighed ten pounds.

"Open it quickly, brother."

When Ma Yuan saw Ma Yuan take out the wine, he also kept rubbing his hands and urging. It seemed that he had been greedy for a long time.

"No hurries!"

Ma Yuan rolled his eyes at Ma Li and said:

"This is because of the Taoist priest, otherwise you will never touch my wine jar in this life."

"Yes, yes, I know."

Ma Mali replied perfunctorily, looked at Zhao Xuanling and said:

"Taoist Priest, you don't know how much respect you have. When Master Yuantong came as a guest, my brother was not even willing to take out this treasure of his. He regarded this jar of wine as more important than his lifeblood."

"go away."

"Hahaha."

The conversation between the two made Zhao Xuanling burst into laughter, and then he cupped his hands towards Ma Yuan and said:

"Thank you."

Ma Jian waved his hand and said:

"Why are you thanking me? The Taoist priest is the benefactor of my two brothers. This little wine is nothing."

With that said, Ma Yuan took off the wine lid from the wine jar.

As the wine jar was opened, a refreshing aroma came out, and the aroma of wine immediately overflowed and was refreshing.

"Good wine."

Zhao Xuanling smelled the aroma of wine in the room. Even if he didn't drink it, he knew very well that this bottle of wine was definitely extraordinary.

"The Taoist Master really knows the goods. I selected the best grains for my wine, added some expensive auxiliary ingredients such as Tianquan water, brewed it with a special process, and sealed it when I was twenty years old. As of today, it has been sealed for a full Twenty years.”

When introducing this jar of wine, Ma Yuan had a look of pride on his face, and a sense of accomplishment, as if he was introducing his own child.

While Ma Yuan was talking, Ma Li had already prepared a cup, pushed it in front of Ma Yuan and said:

"Stop the ink stain and serve it out quickly."

Ma Yuan rolled his eyes at Hou's anxious horse power and filled three large cups.

The wine was full and the three of them raised their glasses.

"First of all, I want to thank the Taoist Master for saving my life with this glass of wine."

Ma Yuanma Li raised his glass and said to Zhao Xuanling.

"It's a trivial matter, nothing worth mentioning."

Zhao Xuanling saw the serious expressions of Ma Yuan and Ma Li and said politely.

With that said, the three of them raised their glasses and drank in one gulp.

The rich aroma of wine spread in the mouths of the three of them. When the wine entered their mouths, Zhao Xuanling closed his eyes and tasted it carefully.

After a while, Zhao Xuanling opened his eyes, looked at the wine glass in his hand and said:

“It’s soft in the mouth, fragrant in the throat, and has a light fruity aroma in the aftertaste. It’s really a good wine!”

After a glass of fine wine, Zhao Xuanling was in a good mood, and the smile on his face became much brighter.

"Haha, good wine and heroes, come on, let's eat some food."

Ma Ma laughed and quickly greeted Zhao Xuanling to eat.

During the meal, the three of them drank a few more glasses of wine. Zhao Xuanling felt that it was almost done, and then asked:

"What year is it now?"

The strange question that Zhao Xuanling suddenly asked made Ma Yuan and Ma Li stunned.

The two of them thought to themselves, even if they don't go down the mountain, they shouldn't not know what year it is now, right?

Although they were confused in their hearts, the two of them did not say it outright.

Ma Yuan looked at Zhao Xuanling who looked serious and knew that the other person was not joking anymore, so he immediately said:

"This year is 2056. Why does the Taoist ask this?"

"It's nothing."

Zhao Xuanling shook his head when he heard this.

After receiving a positive reply, Zhao Xuanling knew that he had indeed traveled through time.

However, Zhao Xuanling did not choose to tell this matter. After all, the fewer people who knew about such a bizarre thing, the better.

"Now can you tell me what my Taoism is about? I think my Taoism is also a local sect in China. Why do people avoid me now when they see me wearing a Taoist robe?"

Zhao Xuanling didn't think too much about his time travel. Although it was a bit too fantasy, Zhao Xuanling had roughly guessed it just now, so he wasn't too surprised at the moment.

Just make peace with it as it comes, it's come, it's useless to think about it too much.

Compared with this, Zhao Xuanling now wants to know what happened to Taoism.

After hearing Zhao Xuanling's words, Ma Yuan was silent for a while, shook the wine glass in his hand, raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp.

"Twenty years ago, the gate of ghosts opened wide and the ghost tribe invaded. All sects rose up to resist, and Taoism played a very important role here. At that time, all our sects followed Taoism. After a fierce battle, although Taoism He led various sects to temporarily suppress the ghost clan, but the Taoists suffered heavy casualties, and less than one tenth of the Taoist disciples survived."

"Ugh…"

Having said this, Ma Yuan sighed deeply and sadly and continued:

"Although less than one-tenth of the Taoist disciples survived, all of them were profound in Taoism. Originally, we thought that with the leadership of Taoism, this war between humans and ghosts would not last too long, but what we didn't expect was that, Just ten years ago, Taoism faced the disaster of extermination..."
