Chapter 420: The Dilapidated Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty (End)
After the apprentice left, Jiang Yue stayed in the room alone. He was bored and watched some videos. The journey afterwards was similar to the previous one. Bringing Jiang Yue along didn't help much. He was away for more than half a year and only returned to Chang'an in the summer of the following year. On the surface, everything seemed safe and sound, but in fact, things were turbulent behind the scenes.
Several waves of assassins came up during the process, but they were all quietly dealt with by the emperor. Jiang Yue also realized that he brought them out to be targets. Look at the people present, who has not been targeted? The main reason is that although what the protagonist has done in recent years has benefited the people, it has offended all the aristocratic families.
If people don't look for him, who else can they look for? Let alone the emperor. If he didn't support the protagonist, how could he do so many things? He is not a pushover when he forces people into a desperate situation. The assassins he keeps at home are not parasites.
After returning to Chang'an, the protagonist's research institute was opened. The establishment of the institute meant that the Tang Dynasty was about to enter an era of rapid development. The little apprentice had not been home for a while. Jiang Yue did not go to find out what they were researching, mainly because it was of no use to Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue was not idle either. Since there was no hope for her young apprentice to take over the Taoist temple, she found a disciple for her young apprentice. This disciple was the granddaughter of the owner of the shop in Chang'an City where Jiang Yue often went to buy medicine. There had been some changes in the family over the years, and the little girl was not loved by her grandmother and uncle, so Jiang Yue simply accepted her as her apprentice.
It just so happened that she had been in contact with medicinal herbs since she was a child, and learning Jiang Yue's medical skills could save her a lot of time. In this era, being a Taoist priest cannot rely on others, and only if you have a skill can you survive better. When the little apprentice came back to see Jiang Yue, Jiang Yue told her directly about this.
Then, while she was at home, Jiang Yue asked her to take care of the child and cultivate her affection for him. As for teaching, she didn't have time anyway, so Jiang Yue would teach. The child was very cute and Jiang Yue was not afraid that her apprentice would not like him. Both the master and the apprentice were obsessed with looks, so if the child was cute, it would basically be a safe bet.
It would take some time before she could formally become his disciple. She would have to wait for a few years to see his character and so on. Jiang Yue was sure that a little girl could not deceive her. It was actually possible to accept him as a disciple now, but people could go astray, so it would be better to set up a longer probation period, just like when Jiang Yue accepted his disciple, she also waited for a few years.
The young disciple was not as smart as the younger disciple, but was better at working hard and studying hard. He was also more talented in medicine than the younger disciple, so he was not bad. In the next few years, Jiang Yue was busy studying and teaching the young disciple. The younger disciple stayed in the research institute and would return to the Taoist temple to accompany Jiang Yue and her disciple during holidays. Although the two did not meet often, their relationship was still very good.
When the little disciple was in her twenties, Jiang Yue had almost mastered all the medical skills. Jiang Yue had taken her with him to the free clinics in the Taoist temple over the years. Now it was time to let her go out and fend for herself. Jiang Yue gave her some money and sent a puppet to let her travel around, so that she could gain more knowledge and visit famous teachers to study medical skills.
In the fifth year after the little disciple left, the protagonist finally made a steam engine, and the railway from Chang'an to Luoyang was completed after three years of construction. Of course, Jiang Yue will not tell you how much it cost and how many Japanese died.
When the first train of the Tang Dynasty was put into trial operation, Jiang Yue was already over 70 years old. She wanted to take a ride on the train, but her apprentice, her grand-apprentice, and her grand-apprentice's apprentice all disagreed, saying that the first trial run was still risky and they would ask Jiang Yue to take a ride after the train was officially opened.
Two people each held one of Jiang Yue's arms, and another person below held her thigh. Three of them refused to let her go. Jiang Yue had no choice but to let go of the idea. After all, she was over 70 years old at that time. Jiang Yue looked in the direction of the railway tracks and felt a little sorry. This first run was very memorable, but she was going to miss it.
As an old lady, Jiang Yue is not fit to walk anymore. Recently, her disciples wanted to let her move to the foot of the mountain, but Jiang Yue decisively refused. She is not too old to walk yet. Although she has never taken any body-strengthening pills in her life, she has the spiritual energy and willpower to persist in exercising. To be honest, her disciple's body is not as good as hers due to his unhealthy lifestyle.
How old is she that she is out of breath just by climbing a mountain, and she still has the nerve to advise Jiang Yue. Now in the Taoist temple, Jiang Yue is still holding her back. The spiritual energy has become increasingly thinner over the years, and it may dissipate in a few decades. If she doesn't exercise now, she may never have this chance again. In order for Jiang Yue to not die before her youth, Jiang Yue is forcing her to exercise to make up for the deficiency.
Although they could not experience the speed of the train themselves, the apprentice and his grandson took Jiang Yue to the top of the mountain, where they could see the train start. They packed up their things and decided to camp on the top of the mountain. They had everything prepared, including food, drinks and entertainment. Soon after they reached the mountain, they saw the moment the train started, which was a disguised way of participating in the trial run.
After staying at the top of the mountain for one night, we returned to the Taoist temple early the next morning. The Taoist temple was not far from the top of the mountain, not to mention that the top of the mountain had been developed into a tourist attraction over the years. People now have better living conditions and transportation is much more convenient. Big cities like Chang'an have a huge annual tourism income.
At the end of the month, Emperor Li II passed away. He lived a long time, many years longer than recorded in history books. However, because he suffered too many hidden injuries when he was young, he abdicated the throne to Li Chengqian under the persuasion of the protagonist. It became a reality that there could be no crown prince for forty years in the world.
The transfer of power means turbulence. The newcomer wants to take the throne but the old man does not want to abdicate. The protagonist who has been away from the court for a long time has become active again. This does not mean that he is fighting for power, but that he is supporting the new emperor, although he does not really need it.
After the crown prince's throne was firmly established, the protagonist returned to the academy. Everyone thought that the protagonist would not come out again, but Jiang Yue knew that Li Chengqian would not live long, and his children were still young, so there might be another turmoil by then. However, this had nothing to do with Jiang Yue, as she had a feeling that her life span was coming to an end.
Although Jiang Yue has been exercising and paying close attention to her body, the end of one's life has nothing to do with whether you are healthy or not. There are many cases where many people die suddenly even though they are in good health. Jiang Yue seems to be one of them in this life. However, Jiang Yue has long been indifferent to life and death. It's not that she is indifferent, but mainly because she knows that she will not die completely yet, so she has let it go.
During the last few days, Jiang Yue called his apprentice back. Originally, the apprentice was wondering what happened to Jiang Yue, but when they saw that Jiang Yue looked like he was arranging his funeral, they were all scared.
"Master, stop talking! Let me feel your pulse. You have always been healthy and haven't been sick for decades. Are you trying to scare your disciple to death by saying this?"
"Master has a premonition. Let me finish what I have to say. Actually, there is nothing much to say. The things that should be divided have already been divided. Master's grave has been chosen. You can bury me there when I am gone."
"Master..."
The apprentice came over and hugged Jiang Yue to stop her from talking nonsense. Jiang Yue patted the child on the back. The apprentice she raised was no different from her daughter. Jiang Yue was reluctant to let her go. The apprentice and her grandson stayed by Jiang Yue's side when she slept, but when they woke up, Jiang Yue had passed away with a smile on her face.
Jiang Yue didn't see her disciples and grandchildren crying bitterly. She didn't like this kind of scene very much. She left early. She didn't know that many people came to see her off after she left. The protagonist, the queen, and the people Jiang Yue had saved all came to attend her funeral. The medical book she wrote in the second half of her life also became a great work. The magical thing is that after 8888 years, later generations still can't find any mistakes. Everyone speculated whether Jiang Yue was a time traveler...
