Chapter 1
On Friday evening, between the hours of eight and nine, just before the carnival night that will take place over the weekend, everyone who works or studies has taken the day off, therefore this is the time of day with the most people on the road.
Instantaneously, a magically relevant hot search appeared to the top of the list, and it stood out notably among the news about various celebrities.
# A mysterious Taoist saves people with her left hand while simultaneously holding a bowl of soup with her right hand without spilling it! #
When the crowds observed this intense quest, they caller out that a master must have be alive.
Taoist? People being saved? Is it possible that the Taoist master has descended from the mountain?!
The most popular video on the issue was viewed by curious internet users after they clicked on the topic.
There was audio accompanying the surveillance video. As soon as it started playing, a woman’s nearly piercing scream could be heard coming from the room.
“Hey! Don’t run!!!”
It was still early in the morning, and the mother and her toddler had initially stopped by the side of the road to purchase food. The child abruptly tore herself away from her mother’s grip just as she was about to pay, and she rushed across the windshield of a car that was parked on the side of the road.
The mother started yelling because the child was in her blind spot just as a truck was racing towards them with no other vehicles in front of them.
Bullet screens denounced the behavior.
“Running around is a really bad idea at this time.”
“What a mischievous little brat!”
“I just don’t get it why these kids like to run out of the house all of a sudden like that.”
Even after the mother threw her phone and hurried in the direction of her child, she was still a few seconds too late.
Fortunately, there was someone who could outrun her!
A gray figure with the aroma of noodles overtook the mother and grabbed the child’s collar.
The wind and exhaust fumes from the passing truck blew in their faces.
“Don’t be a nut and run around on the road.”
The observers took a closer look and realized that it was a Taoist master in a long robe who had saved the child.
The bullet screens spontaneously burst into flames.
“???”
“How did the master taoist appear in front of us in the blink of an eye?”
“I didn’t even blink!”
“Where did the master flash originate from?”
“That was way too fast!”
“Is that a light work?”
“Even though the master encourages everyone to ‘believe in science,’ she actually relies on light work to save lives.”
“Master, I want to learn this!”
The mother rushed over and snatched up the child as soon as she arrived, calling out in a tone that was equal parts anxious and sobbing, “Junjun!”
“Why did you run?!” In her rage, she gave the child a vicious slap across the back before looking the child over from side to side. There was not a single problem.
When the mother eventually started to feel a little more peaceful, she turned around and said, “Thank you, thank you, thank you, Taoist master!” in a repeated and grateful manner.
“It’s okay, there’s no need to thank me.” When the Taoist master realized that the child was unharmed, she waved her hand, and then hurried back to the roadside booth to resume eating her noodles.
Nevertheless, the conversation in the bullet screens continued, and topics such as Taoism, saving people, and light work were extensively debated.
Nevertheless, the onslaught was even more taken aback.
“She’s still got a bowl of noodles in her hand!”
“She’s still holding a bowl of noodles in her hand!”
“There are no signs of their presence on the ground!”
“No soup spilled! Oh my God!”
“The Taoist came from the vendor selling noodles in the upper right corner of the room. It’s a longer distance than my mother, but she gets there faster than my mother!”
Master: “I’m afraid I’m unable to instruct you.”
“It’s light work! The Taoist was able to save lives by their usage of light labor!”
The video was finished, but the conversation continued on in the comments section. Soon after, search phrases associated with Taoism, saving people, and light labour came to dominate more than one popular search.
The video quickly went viral across all of the major video platforms, and marketing accounts reposted it with updated voiceovers in an effort to capitalize on the trend.
However, the surveillance camera only showed a graceful side view and a back view of the Taoist, and despite hours of research, internet users were unable to discover the name of this enigmatic Taoist who had saved a life or determine where they were located.
Anxiety was widespread among internet users, and it was much more widespread among local media outlets.
Reporter Wang instantly identified that the video was shot on Breakfast Street, which was a location that he frequently traveled through. The enigmatic Taoist should be a native of this area, and this was a once-in-a-lifetime chance for publicity!
Therefore, Wang utilized all of his resources and contacts to search, and after eliminating several Taoist temples in the city, he finally found a little Taoist temple on a mountain in the nearby county. According to the locals, a female Taoist lived at the temple. Consequently, Wang was successful in his search.
Wang didn’t waste any time and got in his car early the next morning to drive to the county to check if the Taoist on Lingyun Mountain was the same mystery Taoist who had helped save a life before.
As was to be expected, Wang was able to obtain access to confidential interview information.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we have reached the peak of Lingyun Mountain, and I would like to introduce you to the Taoist who was responsible for saving a life in the city yesterday!”
“Taoist, what are your thoughts on the story of someone saving another person’s life that was shared all over the internet yesterday?”
“It was only a trivial matter that I could take care of.” The female Taoist offered a response.
“Can you really do light work? Because people on the internet say you helped save someone’s life by using it.” Wang asked again.
“Well, to put it simply, there is no such thing. I just make sure to work out consistently and try to run a little bit faster. Everyone should have faith in scientific research.”
Believe in science! This was an essential slogan for Taoists to have in their arsenal in order to dispel rumors.
She gave a little nod in response. This is the golden line that was taught to her last night by the Daoist Li Daochang of Wudang. It may be applied to any situation.
Reporter Wang never stopped following her and interrogating her when they were walking together.
When he noticed that she was kneeling down, he swiftly questioned, “Little nun, are you getting ready to concoct some sort of medication?”
“Uh, well, I’m actually working on the doghouse… A few days ago, the roof caved in, and along with it came the destruction of the doghouse.”
As for why she fixed the doghouse first, the answer is rather self-explanatory: she didn’t have enough money to fix the roof. They hadn’t eaten anything other than vegetarian cuisine the day before, ha ha.
Family of the Ji.
“What a mess,” the Ji family would routinely say as they turned on the news station to serve as the breakfast’s background music.
They were used to watching a certain financial news station on the television, but for some reason it was broadcasting a live broadcast from an unidentified little town today instead of that channel.
Ji Ying rubbed his weary eyes before making his way downstairs to the living room. There, he was informed of a variety of peculiar tidbits pertaining to doghouses and vegetable gardens. After he had woken up, the strange information made him even more irritated.
“Aunt Chen, please change the channel.”
“Uh, sure…” When Aunt Chen had just about reached the end of her statement, Ji Ming abruptly yelled.
“No, don’t make any changes! That’s your sister, right there!”
