I survive in the weird Liaozhai

The next morning, just after daybreak, Gu Nian'an got up early and started packing his luggage.

In fact, there weren't many things, just a change of clothes, a few bottles of strong knockout drugs, and a short dagger. You always have to be prepared when you go out.

Alas! It still goes against my own wishes.

He knew very well what his master was thinking. It was simply that he saw that he was almost going crazy from practicing martial arts, so he wanted him to go out and walk around more to change his mood.

But in this world full of ghosts and monsters, he always has a sense of urgency.

If I don't improve my strength quickly, if something unexpected happens one day, I won't be able to protect my master and sisters, even protecting myself will be a luxury.

He and his junior sister were both orphans adopted by Taoist master Qi Yuan. Rather than being master and disciple, their relationship was more like that of father and son.

It has not been easy for Taoist Master Qi Yuan over the years and he has given a lot for them.

Gu Nian'an is a grateful person, although he has no sense of belonging to this world.

But he could feel the Taoist priest Qi Yuan's feelings for them, so he would generally not disobey his request.

Moreover, looking at the three copper coins neatly placed on the table, Gu Nian'an felt a bit of a headache for a moment.

He has been studying the art of fortune-telling for six years.

Maybe it’s a benefit of time travel, he learns things very quickly.

Especially in this world with gods and ghosts, he is particularly interested in the art of fortune-telling.

If used properly, this thing can be a life-saving measure.

In fact, thousands of previous experiments have proved that his fortune-telling skills are indeed quite good.

As long as it does not involve some of your own situations, the accuracy rate is almost 100%.

Ugh!

After packing his luggage, he slowly walked to the table and took back three copper coins from it.

There was a complicated look in his eyes. It seemed that this descent from the mountain would not be very safe.

After packing up everything, Gu Nian'an walked straight to the door of the next room and knocked gently.

"Boom, boom, boom"

After a while, Gu Caixi opened the door, but her clothes were rather messy and her eyes were a little hazy, which showed that she had not yet woken up.

She rubbed her eyes with her cute little hands and looked at Gu Nian'an who was standing at the door.

Suddenly I felt a little surprised. My senior brother was carrying a bag. Did the sun rise from the west? Did the senior otaku finally take the initiative to go down the mountain?

"Brother, are you going down the mountain?"

"Well, go down the mountain with Master, pack up quickly, and you can come with us too."

"My master and I are gone. I am worried about leaving you alone on the mountain."

Gu Nian'an smiled and reached out to touch the little Loli's head.

It was visibly that the little girl's face was full of surprise, and her eyes were bright, as if there were stars twinkling in them.

"Okay, brother, wait a minute, I'll be there soon."

After saying that, he didn't even bother to close the door and ran back to his room to clean up.

Gu Nian'an did not wait at the door, but walked slowly to the main hall.

He found a corner to put down the package, picked up the rag and started cleaning skillfully. He had been doing this for more than five years and was quite skilled at it.

Originally this was the job of Taoist Qi Yuan, but later it was snatched away by him. As for why, it was just to seek a moment of peace of mind.

Looking at the lonely statue on the altar, Gu Nian'an felt helpless.

If he remembered correctly, the supreme god of Taoism should be the Three Pure Ones.

They are Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun and Taiqing Daode Tianzun, but... the one on the altar was one he had never heard of in his previous life. Is the world really different?

The supreme god of Taoism in this world is called "Taiyi"

He is not the demon emperor in the ancient world, and has nothing to do with the great god Taiyi in Chuci.

It is just that "Taiyi" is said to be the origin of all things, the ultimate of the Great Way, the beginning and end of everything. He is the embodiment of law and reason, somewhat similar to the concept of god in the previous life.

"Nian'an, you don't have to clean it every day. As long as your heart is sincere, the gods will see it."

The gentle voice of Taoist Qi Yuan interrupted his thoughts.

Turning around, Gu Nian'an saw his master standing not far away, holding a package in one hand and holding his junior sister in the other.

The cleaning was basically completed. He put down the rag, took the luggage back from the corner, walked to Taoist Qi Yuan, and took the package from his hand.

Gu Nian'an slowly spoke

"Master, let's go. Langhuan County is not too far away, so we should go there early and make arrangements."

Taoist master Qi Yuan did not reject his disciple's kindness and loosened his hand that was holding the package.

Afterwards, Taoist Master Qi Yuan walked out of the main hall first, followed by his junior sister, jumping and skipping behind him. Gu Nian'an locked the door and followed, and the group of three officially set off.

The forest is quiet and peaceful, with a thin mist floating in the air. In the distance, the sun has already shown half its apex.

Farmers at the foot of the mountain were already working in the fields in twos and threes. This was how it was in that era. There was not much entertainment. Ordinary farmers went to bed early and got up early. Farming from morning to night would almost accompany them for the rest of their lives.

Moreover, the farmers of this era have not yet experienced the poison of information technology, so they are still quite simple. Whenever the master and his three disciples pass by them, they will put on a wise smile and take the initiative to say hello.

"Good morning, Taoist Priest Qi Yuan"

"Is Taoist Master Qi Yuan going on a long journey?"

"Master Qi Yuan is so lucky to have two disciples, each more handsome than the other."

Hearing everyone's greetings, Taoist Qi Yuan responded one by one with a smile on his face, without any impatience.

Taoist Qi Yuan is a good man, a capable good man.

In the surrounding villages around Yuntai Village, if anyone encounters difficulties, most of them will ask the Taoist priest for help.

Facts have also proved that Taoist Qi Yuan is indeed capable and can help solve most difficulties, so he is very popular among the people in Yuntai Village.

Amid the greetings from the crowd, the three of them passed by farmland and arrived at the official road after a while. They saw a horse-drawn carriage parked at the intersection of the official road, which had obviously been waiting for a long time.

This was arranged by the Li family. Yuntai Village is about a hundred miles away from Langhuan County. The old Taoist priest is not young anymore, and it would be difficult for him to walk a hundred miles. Besides, the Li family is a prominent family and they would not be short of this little money.

The three of them approached the carriage, and Gu Nian'an went forward to wake up the coachman who was taking a nap.

Today's time is quite tight so there is not much communication. The old Taoist and his junior sister entered the carriage.

Gu Nian'an chose to sit next to the handlebars, as he had some questions he wanted to clarify.

After the three people were seated firmly, the coachman started to drive the carriage.

The driver was an old hand, but the official roads of that era were just so-so, not to mention the roads connecting the villages.

The journey was quite bumpy, but Gu Nian'an was fine. After all, he had been practicing martial arts for several years, and his body was absolutely in great shape.

However, the old Taoist and the little girl suffered a lot. Even the lively and active little girl Gu Caixi became quite listless.
