123-124

Chapter 123: I have high hopes on you

When she saw that her scumbag father was very hesitant and conflicted and seemed to go against the idea of going up the mountain together, Shi Qingluo asked, "Do you still want to have a son?"

Third Son Shi was no longer conflicted and immediately jumped onto the horse carriage.

Sitting beside Xiao Hanzheng, he said, "Go, I'll go, alright?"

He was really afraid of this wretched girl.

Shi Qingluo curled her lips. "That's more like it."

To deal with a troublemaker, one had to be extremely careful.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain and the 3 of them walked to the Taoist temple together.

Shi Qingluo took out her key to open the door and brought Third Son Shi to the main hall.

The priest's ashes were already placed on the altar table, together with a carved urn.

At the front was a huge incense burner.

Shi Qingluo walked over and took 3 sticks of incense on the table before lighting them up.

She clasped her hands together, held the incense sticks, and bowed to the old priest. "Master, I've come to see you. If you're happy, feel free to touch our heads."

Then, she placed her foot on one side of the table and kicked a corner that one would not easily contact.

Only then did she step back and dip the incense into the incense urn.

The tablecloth covering the table was almost touching the ground, so it was difficult to see her movements.

Just as she finished doing so, a gust of wind suddenly blew over the top of her head, as if someone was stroking it.

The same happened to Third Son Shi's head.

Although it happened very briefly, he still felt it.

Thus, he widened his eyes and was both shocked and excited.

So the old Taoist was really an old immortal.

Otherwise, how did this gust of wind come from?

He swallowed his saliva and asked Shi Qingluo, "Was that your master just now?"

Shi Qingluo said righteously, "Nonsense, if it wasn't my master, do you think that there would be a sudden gust of wind in a confined hall?"

When she was renovating the main hall, she had asked Xiao Mu and his son to set up some mechanisms to allow the old immortal to manifest his spirit.

It was just a gust of wind for a short period of time!

After kicking that trap, a rope above the main hall would pull to rotate the fan, and the wind would blow once.

There were even more powerful mechanisms in other places, but for someone like Third Son Shi, it wasn't necessary.

The ancients believed in these things, so she came up with some mysterious incidents to make everyone believe that her old Taoist master was indeed an old immortal.

Only then would he be able to continue taking the blame. Hehe.

Third Son Shi finally believed her.

Indeed, there wasn't much wind outside, and the windows inside weren't open either.

How could there be a gust of wind blowing over their heads?

If the old immortal wasn't showing his presence, then what was it?
