Taoist Priest, We're Here to Repair the Gate!
Green City Garrison Area.
The next morning, after dinner.
He Junzhong brought Zhuang Yi and Deng Zhen, two special forces soldiers, along with more than ten soldiers, to prepare the tools to repair the door.
He drove two military off-road vehicles to Yanjing City.
Nothing happened along the way.
They followed the road to the foot of the Taoist temple mountain. There were no roads for cars on the mountain. They had no choice but to park their cars and walk up the mountain.
Zhuang Yi and Deng Zhen, the two guides, walked at the front. Behind them was their captain and a dozen soldiers. They walked on small paths and passed through the dense forest.
Along the way, they walked very slowly and carefully.
It had rained the entire night, and the mountain roads were all muddy. Once it rained, it would become slippery. In addition, the terrain was a little steep, and it was easy to fall if one was not careful.
After walking for nearly an hour, they were all a little thirsty. Their clothes were also wet by the remaining rain in the dense forest.
"How long more until we arrive?" He Junzhong frowned.
The mountain was very quiet. Other than the chirping of birds and cicadas, there were no other sounds.
He Junzhong also realized that this Taoist temple was really well-hidden. They had walked for so long and still hadn't arrived.
Zhuang Yi, who was walking at the front, followed the route in his head and replied,"Soon, soon, captain, we'll be there in a while.”
He Junzhong calmed himself down and followed Zhuang Yi's footsteps.
……
They walked for another twenty minutes.
Zhuang Yi raised his hand and pointed ahead, saying excitedly,"Great Captain, we will arrive after passing through the dense forest in front of us.”
He Junzhong's eyes lit up and he hurriedly followed.
They had finally arrived!
The soldiers in the team were also very excited.
After walking for a full hour and a half, they were finally almost there!
He had originally thought that he could take the opportunity to cultivate his character and feel the aura of nature by coming up the mountain this time.
If he could escape from training, he would treat it as an outing.
However, all they wanted to do was go back to training.
Training in the military was so good. Why did he have to suffer here? Now, he was even more thirsty.
They didn't even see a water source along the way. It was too difficult.
Even though they had complaints in their hearts, they still followed closely behind the three officers in front of them and continued to climb the mountain.
Zhuang Yi led everyone through the dense forest.
A ray of sunlight that was close to noon shone on them, dispelling the cold and damp feeling on their bodies.
Phew--
A gentle breeze blew past as he took a deep breath.
The fragrance of the grass and the fresh air were the scent of nature.
The chirping of cicadas and the chirping of birds could be heard endlessly.
The sky was blue, and there were occasionally white clouds floating in the wind, like a scene in a painting.
The Taoist temple was located at the edge of the cliff. At a glance, there were ancient trees growing on the cliff behind the Taoist temple, covering the sky and bringing a trace of coolness to the Taoist temple.
What an ancient Taoist temple! Just by looking at it, a strong sense of history hit him in the face.
He Junzhong was stunned.
But…the Taoist temple was indeed a little broken.
The gate of the Taoist temple had collapsed. The plaque hanging on the door beam had been washed away by the rain last night. It was a little swollen, and the words "Xuanzhen Temple" on it were a little blurry.
It could be said that it was very unique.
He Junzhong couldn't help but sigh,"There really is a Taoist temple that looks so shabby from the outside…"?
Zhuang Yi smiled awkwardly and did not reply.
Without saying anything, the group of people stepped into the Taoist temple.
When he arrived at the door, He Junzhong looked at the big footprint of a size 43 military boot on the door and gave Zhuang Yi and Deng Zhen a meaningful look.
Yes, that's right. Just by looking at the footprints, one could tell that this door was broken by the special forces.
The evidence was conclusive.
He Junzhong sweated and turned his head away. He followed Zhuang Yi and Deng Zhen into the courtyard of the Taoist temple.
Once he reached the courtyard, He Junzhong was once again stunned.
Good heavens, the special forces did not lie to him.
A sense of history hit him in the face, and the air seemed to still have the smell of the last century.
The inside of this Taoist temple was even more dilapidated than the outside.
This didn't look like a place for people to live.
"Daoist Priest Ran! We're here to fix the door for you." Zhuang Yi shouted the moment he entered the courtyard.
He Junzhong raised his head and looked inside.
They wanted to see what the Taoist priest who lived in seclusion in the forest looked like.
However, his hopes were dashed.
No one said anything in the Taoist temple. It was silent.
"Daoist Priest Ran? Are you there?" Zhuang Yi shouted again.
Still, no one responded.
Deng Zhen and Zhuang Yi looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
"Zhuang Yi, what's going on?" He Junzhong frowned.”
Zhuang Yi was also stunned. He stuck his head out and looked into the Hall of Dao."Captain, I'll go look for Taoist Master Ran first. He might not have heard us coming in the inner room.”
As he spoke, Zhuang Yi walked through the courtyard and into the Hall of Dao.
He Junzhong stopped and carefully sized up everything in the courtyard.
It could be seen that this place had existed for quite some time.
It still retained the architectural style of the last century.
However, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like a place for people to live. It was too run-down.
On the contrary, from the moment he entered, He Junzhong's heart became very calm, peaceful, and free of distracting thoughts.
He didn't know if it was because of the Taoist temple or the quiet environment deep in the mountains.
He waited for a long time.
Ta Ta Ta--
Zhuang Yi jogged back.
He was holding a piece of paper in his hand.
"Captain, Taoist Master Ran is not in the Taoist temple. I just found a note he left in the Taoist hall.”After Zhuang Yi returned, he passed the note to He Junzhong.
He Junzhong took the note, opened it, and looked at the words written on it.
"This poor Daoist is going to travel. I'll have to trouble you with the matter of the Daoist temple's gate.”
