Taoist Temple on the Mountain Peak
Su Ming thought of the smell in the room and the laughter.
"Grandpa, didn't you say that I was wearing perfume in my room?”
Grandpa looked at Su Ming with interest, waiting for him to continue.
"I really don't have anything fragrant. However, I noticed that there was an especially fragrant piece on the edge of the bed.”
"And…He had heard a woman's laughter in the room just now.”
When his grandfather heard him say that there was a fragrance, he didn't pay much attention to it.
Hearing the laughter, he frowned and asked,""Did I hear wrongly?"
Su Ming thought for a moment and said,"I heard it very clearly at that time. I just laughed twice. After that, I didn't hear it."”
"Hiss ~"
Grandpa took a deep breath and looked in the direction of Su Ming's room through the door.
"Let's go take a look," he said.
Then, she stood up and walked towards Su Ming's room.
As soon as the door was pushed open, a unique fragrance wafted over.
He took a deep breath and felt refreshed.
Su Ming pointed at a fragrant spot on the edge of the bed and said,""This is the spot."
Grandpa bent down and sniffed.
He couldn't remember if he had smelled it before.
However, he felt that this smell must have been left behind on purpose.
"Did you smell like this when you came back last night?" Grandpa asked in a deep voice.”
Su Ming thought about it carefully and said,"I don't think so!" You only realized it when you smelled it this morning."
"Then was there anything wrong with last night?" Grandpa asked again.”
"This? Let me think."
Su Ming scratched his head, as if he was recalling carefully.
After thinking hard for a few minutes, he said," Oh right, I vaguely had a dream. I dreamed that a woman was talking in this room.”
"But I couldn't see that person's face clearly.”
"She seemed to be talking to me, but also seemed to be talking to herself. He paced around my room for a long time, and he was still…I sat on the edge of the bed for a while."
"Yes, that voice. She laughed too, and her voice was exactly the same as the voice I heard this morning!”
"Even the fragrance? It was as if he had smelled this fragrance in that dream.”
The more he recalled, the clearer it became. Many details that he had not recalled before slowly surfaced in his mind.
Su Ming said as he looked around in surprise.
"There's no need to look for her. She's no longer here!”
Grandpa said hoarsely, but his tone was extremely certain.
It was as if he knew the ins and outs of this matter through Su Ming's words!
"What? Her? Grandpa, are you saying that everything I saw in my dream was real?”
"What traces did you find?"
How could there be someone who could enter a dream?
Did someone really come to my room last night?
So this smell was left behind by that person.
Su Ming was in disbelief.
Grandpa glanced at the furnishings and layout of the room.
Then, he stared at Su Ming.”
"You discovered it yourself. Come with me now.”
With that, Grandpa led Su Ming to his room.
This was the first time Su Ming had entered his grandfather's room so calmly.
Although he was naughty when he was young, his grandfather's room was a forbidden area for him.
She remembered that when she was young, she had snuck into her grandfather's room when he was not at home.
He just looked around curiously and did nothing.
Nothing moved.
When his grandfather returned, he was still taught a lesson by him.
After that, he never entered his room again.
After entering his grandfather's room, he found that the interior was decorated the same as his own room.
Grandpa opened another door.
It was dark when she entered, so her grandfather turned on the lights.
As soon as the light came on, Su Ming felt like he had entered another world.
There were two bookshelves and an incense table in the middle.
Above the incense table was a portrait of the Three Pure Ones 'patriarch.
The portrait had already turned yellow, and the main body was an outline outlined by black lines.
The other walls were all hung with various Daoist Eight Trigrams.
One of them was made up of various special characters.
It was a picture in the shape of a black boat, which immediately attracted Su Ming's attention.
Grandpa bent over and rummaged through a bookshelf for a long time.
Finally, he pulled out a scroll from the dozens of scrolls.
He placed it on the incense table and slowly unfolded it.
"Take a look at this first," Grandpa said mysteriously.”
Su Ming listened to his grandfather talking to him, and then he used the painting in the shape of a boat to collect his thoughts.
Su Ming was shocked!
Why did Grandfather have a portrait of that person?
It was a fine brush painting of a long-haired woman wearing a plain white dress. She was playing the zither with her head lowered beside a plum blossom.
The portrait was rather old, and one could only vaguely make out a rough appearance.
Because the woman in the painting had her head lowered, only a blurry side profile could be seen.
However, Su Ming recognized her at a glance.
Although Su Ming was in a daze in his dream, he didn't see it clearly.
However, the person in the painting was dressed and looked exactly the same as that person. He was almost certain that it was that woman.
Su Ming was a little excited. He pointed at the woman in the painting and said with certainty,""This is the person I dreamed of last night!”
Grandpa stroked his beard and looked at Su Ming.
As if he was looking at a stranger, he sized her up for a while before slowly saying,"In that case, come with me to a place in the afternoon.”
Then, he returned to his bedroom and made a phone call.
About half an hour later, a van stopped in front of Su Ming's house.
Grandpa and Su Ming got into the car one after another.
Not long after, they arrived at another stone road.
The bumpy journey on the winding mountain road lasted for more than two hours.
Only then did they arrive at their destination.
They had already entered a deep mountain.
The place where they parked was a relatively flat open space.
There were already dozens of cars parked there.
"Pick us up here at this time tomorrow!”
After Grandpa said this, the van driver turned around and drove away.
Tomorrow?
Are you going to spend the night here?
Su Ming saw that he was in front of a Taoist temple.
This was a relatively large Daoist temple.
It almost occupied the entire peak of the mountain.
One could vaguely hear the sound of a Daoist reciting scriptures inside.
There were also many visitors coming in and out from time to time.
This was because he rarely stayed at home since he started school, especially when he was in junior high school.
He didn't know about this Daoist temple before.
The main entrance was an archway with dragons and phoenixes carved on it. On it were written the words 'Dao Law is Natural' in gold.
The left and right couplets were:
"Talking about the Dao opens up a hundred lifetimes of Dharmic formulations, and practicing the Dao creates the Three Pure Realms!”
It was so elegant.
Grandpa walked in casually.
It felt as natural as returning home.
