The people who were originally watching the fun thought that this Taoist priest really didn't tell fortunes anymore. Not because they were being modest, but because they felt that this Taoist priest was a capable man with a strong personality.

No one noticed that Rong Jiuxuan's fingers were trembling and clenched into fists under the table.

He was so scared that he was afraid these people would come up and punch him or cause a stampede, and then he would be killed.

Many people gradually left, leaving only a few people.

Not long after, the fortune teller came back and brought a hundred coins, and thanked Rong Jiuxuan profusely.

Rong Jiuxuan felt very weak. It was the first time he had lied to someone. If he hadn't had a full meal for several days, he wouldn't have wanted to lie to someone.

After the people left, Rong Jiuxuan sat on the stall and was about to pack up and leave to buy some buns when someone sat down opposite him.

Rong Jiuxuan said the same thing, "Madam, I can't tell fortunes today, please leave."

Unexpectedly, the lady opposite did not leave and said meaningfully, "Is it you, Bajie?"

Rong Jiuxuan was stunned for a long moment, his eyes changed from confusion to shock, joy, and grievance. The person opposite him was stunned.

"Wuwu X﹏X, finally someone recognizes me~ Wuwuwu" Rong Jiuxuan burst into tears.

Jiang Zhi looked at the person opposite her who was crying heartbreakingly, and looked at Qin Yan helplessly.

How could this person cry like this? I didn't do anything, did I? How could Bajie cry like this?

Qin Yan looked at the confused Jiang Zhi and comforted her that everything was fine and he would handle it.

Rong Jiuxuan stood up and wanted to hug him as a fellow villager, so Qin Yan quickly hugged him.

Patting his back with a little more force, he said, "Brother, we are all from the same hometown."

Rong Jiuxuan was even more shocked, "You too?!"

Qin Yan raised his eyebrows, looking amused, "Why can't I do that? She's my wife."

Seeing Qin Yan's high spirits, there was nothing he couldn't understand. It turned out that this was a young couple who traveled through time. He, a single child, couldn't compare to them.

Before Rong Jiuxuan could even start emoting, his stomach started to growl.

Rong Jiuxuan smiled awkwardly and asked carefully, "Hey, I'm hungry. I haven't had a good meal these days. Can we eat first and talk while we eat?"

Qin Yan was very generous and patted his shoulder, "Let's go, find a place and I'll treat you to a meal."

"Okay." After taking two steps, he remembered that he had not put away his things yet, so he turned back to put away his things and followed Qin Yan and the others. They found a restaurant and ordered a table of dishes.

After they left, Qin Rui, who was hiding in the corner, poked her head out to look at their backs.

She was so engrossed in the story that she felt like she had heard the story before, but she just couldn't remember what it was.

While she was thinking, the crowd slowly dispersed, revealing Qin Yan and Jiang Zhilu who were still standing there.

Qin Rui was so scared that she didn't care about anything anymore. She pulled Ye Lingyao's hand and hid in a corner, sticking her little head out to look at the situation over there.

She found that her brother and sister-in-law had been talking and didn't even notice her slipping away. Now they walked to the Taoist stall and said something that made the Taoist very excited. Then he hugged her brother and the three of them left together.

Qin Rui was very confused as to why they left together. Oh, forget it, just play some more. If her brother found out, she would be finished.

Ye Lingyao was startled by Qin Rui's sudden movement. When he came to his senses, they were hiding in a closed space. The little girl seemed to be nestling in his arms. This thought made Ye Lingyao's ears blush.

Before he could think about it, the little girl looked eager to see all the delicious and fun things on the street.

He didn't know why, he just followed quietly, and gave a few words of advice from time to time, but Qin Rui ran away.

In the restaurant, Qin Yan asked the shopkeeper to take them to a private room.

Rong Jiuxuan saw that this man actually wanted to invite him to dinner. It turned out that even in a foreign country, Chinese people were still hospitable when they met their fellow countrymen.

Looking at my fellow villagers, they all like to wear luxurious clothes, either wearing gold and silver or wearing jade.

He admitted that he was jealous...so he ordered a large table of dishes.

Looking at the table with a full banquet, Jiang Zhi and Qin Yan's eyelids twitched. This man was really hungry.

Rong Jiuxuan looked at the table full of dishes and his mouth was watering. However, he still had a bit of rationality and knew that it was Qin Yan who was treating them, so he pretended to be humble.

After hearing from Qin Yan and the others that they were not hungry, Rong Jiuxuan opened his stomach and started eating.

Qin Yan and the others did not stop them, but they still asked the questions that needed to be asked.

When they first heard the lyrics from the song "Monkey Brother" that Rong Jiuxuan was chanting while performing the ritual, they thought of a person wearing a mask.

Originally, the two of them were thinking about whether or not to reveal their identities to him. They had no intention of hiding it since they came here, for fear that this man was someone with bad intentions.

But seeing that this man did not take money from others and stopped in time was the key factor that made them decide to accept this fellow villager.

"How did you get here? Did you die in modern times too?" Qin Yan held the tea on the corner of the table and drank it.

Rong Jiuxuan's mouth was full now, but he knew that this fellow villager was rich and had a big leg to lean on. He immediately revealed his background without any concealment.

"I am a senior makeup artist. I happened to be returning from a business trip on a plane. I learned that the plane had an accident and fell into a canyon, killing everyone on board."

"I opened my eyes and found myself here. I also brought with me a simple makeup bag. But the key point is that I don't have any makeup skills and can't make any money."

"I was hungry for two days and met an old Taoist priest in a dilapidated temple. The old Taoist priest was beaten up and I took care of him. He said he wanted to take me in as his disciple. I had no money to eat at the time, so I agreed."

"I've been doing odd jobs with him, taking the opportunity to learn something. Although this old Taoist priest has a lot of tricks to bluff people, I don't know if he is gambling or has been caught cheating people. People always come to him and beat him up."

"Originally there was a temple fair this time, and the old Taoist priest was going to set up a stall to trick a few people to make some money, but unfortunately he got beaten up a few days ago and now he can't get out of bed, so he asked me to take his place. If I make some money, I'll give it to him. If I don't, I'm sure he'll get beaten up."

"I'm convinced. I've been following the old Taoist priest for nothing but losses. He always cheats people and gets me beaten up together. He often has no food to eat. He's almost starving to death. He really has no gratitude at all."

After listening to this, Qin Yan and Jiang Zhi looked at each other and said, "Well, we are still very lucky. At least we have had a smooth journey and have not suffered much."

The greatest suffering is being blown by the wind in a very bad weather, or having to drink bitter medicine.

Qin Yan patted Rong Jiuxuan's shoulder sympathetically, "Brother, you have suffered."

"Who said it wasn't? I'm about to cry." After Rong Jiuxuan spoke up for himself, he didn't forget to put the braised pork into his mouth.

So fragrant!
