The marriage with Gu Sinian?
Qi Zhenzhen felt her mind wasn't working properly. Her marriage with Gu Sinian? Centuries apart!
Yuan Jue smiled at Qi Zhenzhen, "No matter how astonished you are in your heart, this matter is true. If it weren't for the karmic ties between you, even if you saved my life, you wouldn't have arrived here. At most, you would have had a good life in your next reincarnation."
Buddhism speaks of reincarnation, life after life.
Qi Zhenzhen felt a faint belief, and regardless of what Yuan Jue said now, she was already here, and she was already married to Gu Sinian, so it could naturally be said that there was a connection.
"I believe what the master said, but there's one point I'd still like to confirm. After the grievances are resolved, where will I go?" Qi Zhenzhen asked.
Yuan Jue still smiled faintly, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."
Qi Zhenzhen tried to discern something from Yuan Jue's face, but he maintained his gentle smile, his eyes placid, revealing nothing.
Qi Zhenzhen had been in Da Feng for several years. In the beginning, she had a lingering obsession, constantly pondering whether she could return. Now, she had feelings she couldn't let go of, people she couldn't leave behind, and she was no longer so fixated on whether she could return.
"Then I won't trouble the master," Qi Zhenzhen said slowly.
Yuan Jue looked at Qi Zhenzhen thoughtfully. He had seen her emotional fluctuations all along. He had expected it to take time for her to calm down, but he hadn't expected her to become so serene so quickly.
"Have some tea." Yuan Jue poured another cup of tea for Qi Zhenzhen.
After drinking the tea, Qi Zhenzhen got up to leave. Yuan Jue did not detain her, but instead had a young monk guide her back to the guest room.
"Madam, the master looks so young," Er Xi mumbled.
"He only looks young."
In Yuan Jue's own words, he had entered the mortal world many times, and his combined age was several hundred years. A seemingly young face with an ancient heart, an old monster.
"I don't understand, did the master specifically lead you here just for tea?" Er Xi was a bit confused. Did her madam have any prior acquaintance with the master? The master doing this was very strange!
"Just for tea?" Qi Zhenzhen frowned.
"Yes, Madam, one cup after another, you drank so many. Is that tea really that good?" Er Xi added.
No wonder Yuan Jue didn't have Er Xi leave when he spoke. Was she hypnotized?
It seemed that retaining memories from past lives had many benefits. The experiences and skills learned in each life were preserved. Others only had one lifetime to learn various skills, while Yuan Jue had several times more time. What a gifted life!
Therefore, it was inevitable that Yuan Jue would become a master.
"Tai He Temple is famous in Da Feng not just because of Master Yuan Jue. It's also because the vegetarian meals here are exceptional, and what's even more famous is the green tea made by Master Yuan Jue himself. There are even folk rumors that drinking Master Yuan Jue's green tea can prolong life and sharpen the senses. Such a good thing, of course, I'd have cup after cup," Qi Zhenzhen said with a smile.
Er Xi looked on with envy. Sharpening the senses. Fei Xu always said she was stupid. Should she find an opportunity to ask Master Yuan Jue for a cup of tea? She was just a little maid. Would the master give it to her? It should be possible. The master was highly respected and admired by the world, so he surely wouldn't refuse her.
How could Qi Zhenzhen know the rich inner thoughts of her little maid at this moment? She had more important things to do. She needed to properly digest what Yuan Jue had said. Additionally, she had to write a letter to Gu Sinian, informing him of the current situation at home and letting him know that she and Madam Da Qin would be staying at Tai He Temple for a while.
