After touching his round head, Song Tang squatted down and asked softly, "Are you Mingyuan?"

Song Tang only knew two great monks, one was Juechen, the abbot of Songshan Temple, and the other was Huici.

"Yes!" Mingyuan nodded vigorously, his big eyes sparkling, "I am Mingyuan, then you are Song Tang from the Mountain God Temple, Sister Song?"

Song Tang nodded.

Mingyuan suddenly became happy, hugged Song Tang's neck tightly, rubbed her face and said: "Master said that you saved my life, thank you! Mingyuan will eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures for sister for the rest of her life, and hope that sister will be free from illness and disaster for the rest of her life."

She felt that the Xie couple, who were in her backpack, moved. This was the last child of the Xie family!

If he becomes a monk, it means that the Xie family will be the last generation up to the young monk.

I guess Juechen also took this into consideration, so he didn't let Mingyuan become a monk directly.

Song Tang touched his head without scars and said calmly, "Let's talk about it when you grow up, okay?"

"Mingyuan!" Mingxin was so scared that his heart almost jumped out of his chest when he found out that his junior brother had suddenly disappeared.

Mingyuan has been weak since childhood and has been cursed, so he has rarely left the mountain for many years.

The reason why he was able to follow Mingxin to participate in the Xuanmen competition this time was that after his curse was broken, his physical weakness was cured without any medicine.

"Mingyuan is still young, and he can't stay on the mountain like us. You should take him down to see more of the world. If he wants to return to secular life in the future, he will not be unable to integrate into the secular world." Juechen instructed his disciple.

Mingyuan was well again, and Mingxin was happier than anyone else. After a little hesitation, she brought him down.

Unexpectedly, after just strolling around the market for a while and bargaining with others, Mingyuan suddenly disappeared!

Ming Xin was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He began to wonder if Ming Yuan had been abducted by human traffickers. If so, how could he find his fellow apprentice back?

Who knew that after running a few steps, I saw Mingyuan hugging a strange woman affectionately.

Good, this kid broke his rules as soon as he came down the mountain!

Mingxin was just about to go over and teach his fellow apprentice a lesson when he realized that this was not a strange woman at all, but Song Tang, whom he had met once before.

Not only did the other party help control the curse on his junior brother in the early stage, but he also broke the curse of the Xie family that had lasted for more than 300 years in one fell swoop.

Ming Xin hesitated for a moment, but still walked over. He greeted Song Tang awkwardly, "Master Song, what a coincidence."

At the beginning, he spoke rudely to Song Tang many times, and when his master suggested that he bring Song Tang to participate in the Xuanmen event, he made many excuses.

Now their entire sect owes Song Tang a huge favor!

Not to mention that Songshan Temple finally had regular pilgrims because of Song Tang, and the pilgrims also donated money to help them renovate the temple inside and out.

Because of this, they no longer had to live a self-sufficient life. Sometimes when the harvest was poor, they couldn't even afford Mingxin's medical expenses.

For this reason, he and his master had to go down the mountain again and again to beg for alms.

Now Songshan Temple has finally taken on the appearance of a real Buddhist temple. The master is no longer worried about worldly matters and can concentrate on practicing Buddhism.

Most importantly, Song Tang is Mingyuan’s savior, and this great favor cannot be easily repaid.

"What a coincidence." Song Tang replied indifferently.

Before, she could have given up on Mingxin, a junior, for Juechen's sake. After all, Juechen was a truly compassionate person, and Song Tang had always had a good impression of such people.

Mingxin is different. To Song Tang, he is just a stranger who was once unfriendly to him.

Mingxin was not stupid either, and he immediately felt the coldness in the other party's words.

He pursed his lips tightly and wanted to apologize, but he moved his lips several times and finally couldn't say the words.

"The Xuanmen event requires each sect to form a team to complete the task! If you can't find anyone to form a team with at that time, you can come to us, and I will definitely help you win the championship." Mingxin's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had found the best solution.

Song Tang has always wanted to meet a Qi-refining cultivator, or even a foundation-building ancestor.

As long as he helps her win the championship, wouldn't that be considered helping her? Then maybe Song Tang won't bother with him anymore!

Song Tang raised his eyebrows and thought: Juechen is compassionate, Mingyuan is kind, but I didn't expect there is a completely stupid person in between.

Mingxin couldn't even defeat the green-haired zombie back then, so how could he feel that he needed his help?

However, Song Tang never liked to embarrass others, so he just smiled and said nothing.

Thinking that Song Tang agreed, Ming Xin looked relieved. He stuffed the candied haws in his hand to Ming Yuan and walked naturally to Song Tang, as if the two of them were already allies.

"Go and have fun! Remember to stay within our sight. I want to talk to Master Song." Mingxin patted Mingyuan's head.

Mingyuan is only eight years old this year and is born weak.

He was also troubled by nightmares because he witnessed his father accidentally killing his mother because of a curse.

Later, due to stress reaction, Mingyuan simply forgot this memory, and even had difficulty remembering what his parents looked like.

When the curse struck for the first time, Mingyuan almost killed his fellow apprentice, causing him to live in fear and self-blame every day.

This time his curse was completely broken, and Mingyuan finally slowly regained his childish nature.

Mingyuan took the candied haws and first asked his senior brother and Song Tang if they wanted to eat them. They both shook their heads before Mingyuan happily started eating.

Looking at Mingyuan jumping in front, he was humming a song he made up: "On the other side of the mountain and the sea, there is a group of little monks. They are lively and smart, they are naughty and sensitive..."

Song Tang and Ming Xin both smiled at the same time.

"Ahem, this is Master Song's first time to attend the Xuanmen Festival, but I have been here several times. How about I introduce Master Song to the sects that will attend the Xuanmen Festival?"

Mingxin is still not used to getting along with female pilgrims. He has lived for twenty years, but the number of female pilgrims he has seen in this period is not as many as the ones he has seen in the previous twenty years combined.

Because he is easily shy, female pilgrims who come to burn incense would occasionally tease him.

Especially the older aunts would joke and ask him if he was willing to return to secular life.

It is impossible for him to return to secular life! He still wants to become an enlightened monk!

Pretending not to notice Ming Xin's discomfort, Song Tang nodded: "That's troublesome."

Song Tang was indeed different from others, which made Mingxin feel a lot more relaxed.

He thought for a moment and said, "There are many sects participating in the Xuanmen Festival every year, such as the Ten Great Taoist Temples and the Ten Great Buddhist Temples. Master Song has heard of many of them, so I won't go into details. I will tell you about some less common sects, such as the corpse drivers. Each of them carries a black coffin with a corpse inside, which is their weapon and also their companion."
