"Little Taoist priest, can you return the jade pendant to me?”
The old man looked at Li Mu kindly and smiled.
Li Mu nodded with a smile." Alright, I'll return it to you."”
After saying that, he injected a stream of spiritual energy into the jade Buddha and handed it to the old man.
After this spiritual energy entered the jade Buddha, it immediately began to nourish the soul in the jade Buddha.
It caused the wandering souls that were about to shatter and die to gradually condense.
Li Mu " saw " that after being nourished by his spiritual energy, the wandering soul in the jade Buddha seemed to have woken up.
Then, he raised his head and looked in Li Mu's direction. When he saw Li Mu's identity, he was slightly stunned.
"Thank you, Daoist Priest…" he said gratefully.
Li Mu smiled and shook his head. He didn't say anything and continued to look at the old man in front of him.
The old man took the jade Buddha, his eyes filled with reminiscence."This is all my wife left me…"
After a moment, the old man suddenly asked,""Little Taoist priest, do you think people turn into ghosts after they die?”
Hearing this question, Li Mu was slightly stunned. Then, he thought for a moment and finally nodded in response. He did not intend to lie to the old man.
After all, the old man only had half a year left to live. Perhaps it would be better to give him some answers and give him some hope.
Sure enough, seeing Li Mu nod, the old man's wrinkled face revealed a bright smile.
" I see..." The old man smiled and nodded. He seemed to be in a good mood.
"I wonder if my wife has reincarnated after more than ten years. If not, maybe we can reunite in the netherworld again, hahaha…"
As he spoke, the old man burst into laughter, but Li Mu did not laugh.
Looking at the old man's smile, it wasn't hard to tell that he had forced himself to smile. He probably missed his boss too much and was seeking joy in his suffering…
Then, Li Mu bowed to the old man."" She will. The scholar and his wife are so loving. I guess she has been waiting for you. I'll take my leave first. Goodbye…"
With that, Li Mu turned around and left with the two leopards.
Previously, he couldn't understand why a person could be unscathed after being corroded by his soul for more than ten years. Just now, when he recalled the records in the Daoist scripture, he remembered.
The living belong to yang, and the soul belongs to yin.
To a living person, the Yin Qi entering their body was undoubtedly equivalent to a lethal poison!
However, in order to stay by the old man's side, the soul in the jade Buddha had been using its merit to help the old man wash away the Yin Qi in his body.
This was also the reason why the wandering souls were still on the verge of extinction even though they were clearly in the jade Buddha.
He had just made a move and injected a stream of spiritual energy into the soul in the jade Buddha. It was just an insignificant thing, but it could make the soul last until the day the old man passed away.
It was enough for them to meet…
On the way back, the corner of Li Mu's mouth curled up slightly. He seemed to be in a good mood.
The mother leopard seemed to have sensed Li Mu's emotions. She tilted her head and looked at Li Mu.
"Meow…"
The mother leopard seemed to know how to find an opportunity. Seeing that Li Mu was in a good mood, she immediately came up and rubbed her big head against Li Mu.
Li Mu rubbed its big head and scolded with a smile,""You keep swaying. Don't break the bag of daily necessities in your mouth. Otherwise, I won't give you meat to eat today.”
"Meow?" The mother leopard obviously didn't understand what Li Mu was saying.
However, when it saw the smile on Li Mu's face, it thought that Li Mu was praising it, which made it a little happy.
When the leopard cub saw that its mother was not playing with it anymore, it immediately came over like a husky.
It bit the mother leopard's leg playfully, then ran to Li Mu's side and knocked his little head against Li Mu's leg.
Li Mu didn't mind seeing the leopard cub move so much. Instead, he felt that the path up the mountain was a little narrow. The leopard cub was jumping around, so he had to be careful not to fall down.
He simply picked up the little leopard and let it whine in his arms. It was useless even if he wanted to get down.
Li Mu only put down the Xianghua newspaper when the man and the two leopards finally arrived at the flat ground at the entrance of the Three Purities Temple.
However, when Li Mu came back, he was surprised to see a person at the door. It was also a Taoist priest.
Li Mu was obviously stunned when he saw the middle-aged man dressed like a Taoist priest.
Then, he went up to greet them. After performing a Taoist ritual, he asked,"Why did you come to this small temple?”
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist…"
When the middle-aged Taoist priest saw Li Mu, he quickly bowed and said,""I'm traveling now. When I came here today, I saw a Taoist temple here, so I wanted to visit…"
Li Mu nodded when he heard the purpose of their visit.
Then, he casually opened the door of the Taoist temple."In that case, please follow me, Daoist Priest…"
Guess what story this middle-aged Taoist priest has
