Chen Chuan said, raising the corner of his mouth proudly: "Of course I can recognize it."

People who practice in Taoist temples get up at the hour of Mao every day, and after washing up, they start their morning lessons.

Chen Chuan has been in Baiyun Temple for more than 20 years. He has an outgoing and friendly personality and is very familiar with everyone in the Taoist temple. Therefore, he can recognize someone even from their back.

The third seat in the second row was originally supposed to be occupied by our third senior brother Xie Lin.

Xie Lin was tall and mighty, quite different from the average thin Taoist priest. Although the fourth brother Wan Hu was not much different in size from the third brother, the fourth brother's back was thinner and his legs were longer.

It might be difficult for others to distinguish between the third and fourth brothers, but he could recognize them at a glance.

"Third Senior Brother is afraid that Master will punish him to kneel again."

Chen Chuan sighed and shook his head.

Xu Xing heard Chen Chuan mumbling to himself and asked casually, "Is he often punished?"

After Chen Chuan invited the two to continue walking towards the dining hall, he explained, "Third Senior Brother has a naughty personality and often got into trouble when he was a child. After he grew up, he would sneak down the mountain from time to time to perform rituals for the nearby villagers to earn some money. He is playful and not doing his job properly. If the master knows about this, do you think he will be punished?"

"Why didn't I see your master punish you?"

Jiang Hao glanced at Chen Chuan and teased.

"hey-hey......"

Chen Chuan scratched his head awkwardly and said nothing.

What a joke, how can I admit to such an embarrassing thing as being punished?

The Taoist priests' morning lessons had not yet ended, and there was no one else in the dining hall except the old Taoist priest who was cooking.

After Chen Chuan greeted them, he brought some steamed buns and pickled vegetables, and three bowls of porridge, and then asked them to eat quickly. After this meal, they would have to wait until the afternoon for food to be served.

Jiang Hao and Xu Xing looked at Chen Chuan who was eating voraciously. They looked at each other and started to eat the buns as well.

After the three of them had breakfast in the dining hall, Chen Chuan took them around the Taoist temple, from the front hall to the back hall, talking about the origin and development of Taoism along the way.

After the Taoists' morning lessons, Chen Chuan's nightmare came.

A five or six-year-old Taoist child stood outside the main hall and said in a loud voice: "Little Master, Master is looking for you."

"We'll go shopping on our own. You can go see your master first."

Xu Xing patted Chen Chuan on the shoulder.

Chen Chuan made a bitter face and sighed: "I'll be back soon."

Jiang Hao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I can't come back."

Chen Chuan hated Jiang Hao's mouth.

Xu Xing also raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

"I will definitely come back."

After Chen Chuan went to see the abbot, Jiang Hao and Xu Xing also followed him to the front hall.

They had already walked around the Taoist temple and checked some secluded and uninhabited rooms, but did not find any suspicious people.

"Are you still going to Baiyun Temple?"

Xu Xing asked how Jiang was.

"Originally, I just guessed that the thieves hid in a Taoist temple or nunnery. Since there is nothing suspicious in the Taoist temple, it would be fine to go to the nunnery."

……

In Baiyun Temple, all the nuns, led by Master Jingyun, were locked up in the main hall.

Nun Jingyun looked at the men holding knives and found that she seemed to have seen one of them before. However, the man had his face covered, so she was not sure.

"Boss, the imperial court is still searching the mountain. What should we do?"

The spy came back, anxious.

Hiding in the nunnery is not a long-term solution for them. If someone knocks on the door again, they will be exposed.

But the mountains were full of imperial court personnel, and if they encountered a group of them, they would be alerted.

The leader heard this and turned to look at the nun huddled in the corner. Seeing Master Jingyun looking at him, his eyes darkened: "Why, do you know me?"
