Wang Baole murmured softly, and Chen Yunluo and his wife couldn't hear his voice. Only the little boy looked at Wang Baole in surprise. He could hear it. Although he couldn't understand it, for some reason, deep in his heart, at this moment, a heat current that was both strange and familiar appeared.

The heat flow was very hot and hot, permeating his heart, body, and soul, like this moment, the first snow that fell between heaven and earth became warmer.

It seems that the Taoist priest in front of him makes him feel very safe and at ease.

It seems that the figure in front of me makes me miss him very much and want to be with him.

In this warmth, Chen Yunluo and his wife also felt Wang Baole's kindness and recognition, and were even more infected by the warmth that permeated the surroundings. They were in a happy mood and bowed to Wang Baole with gratitude and took the child away.

Before leaving, the little boy who was held by his father turned his head three times.

Finally, when he turned around for the third time, the little boy couldn't help but speak loudly towards the figure in the Taoist temple.

"Master, have we... seen it?"

His sudden voice made Chen Yunluo and his wife very nervous, but the reproaching eyes from their father and the nervous expression of their mother did not make the little boy turn around. He still looked at the Taoist temple, as if waiting for an answer.

"See..." Wang Baole smiled, nodded heavily, and murmured in his heart.

"In your past life."

"Okay." The little boy's eyes were a little confused, but after all, he was a child and soon recovered. With his parents' apology and Wang Baole's gentle smile, the family of three went further and further away.

A faint sound of Chen Yunluo teaching his children a lesson came from the wind.

From a distance, the sky was gray and there were more and more snowflakes. It was scattered into the city, as if it was wearing a white long gown for the city. In addition, outside the Taoist temple, Chen Yunluo's family of three slowly blurred in the wind and snow.

In the Taoist temple, Wang Baole stood by the door, holding a broom in his hand, staring up and staring, and his smile gradually increased until the snowflakes covered the world in front of him, and his body and soul seemed to have been sublimated in the wind and snow.

This snow fell for a month. For the mortal world in some worlds, the continuous snow may cause disasters for a month, but for the Xiangang Continent, this is a very normal thing.

Although the snow falls still, it cannot hinder the children's enlightenment. Every morning, children from Taoist temples will come in a limited time and listen to the Taoist priest's preaching in the Taoist temple.

Chen Qing is also among them.

He likes his friends around him, Erya at the table next door, but he prefers the Taoist priest who has always been gentle.

Wang Baole's sermons are not much different from other Taoist temples. They all tell the insights of practice. These principles are difficult to describe in simple words that children can understand, but his body is full of Taoist rhymes.

Under this rhyme, even if these children cannot fully understand, they are still in ignorance and remain in their memory. In the future, as they grow up, as their practice, the insights from enlightenment and the rhyme of Tao will become the beacon for their practice.

And this beacon is particularly brilliant in Chen Qing's heart.

He was very surprised that the other friends didn't understand it very well, because to him, he seemed to be able to fully understand every word he said in this gentle Taoist priest.

In this way, the days passed day by day, and in this enlightenment, the year passed.

Chen Qing is six years old.

Compared with other children, from this year on, Chen Qing often asked his own questions while understanding them. The gentle Taoist priest would answer every question and show encouragement in his eyes.

This made Chen Qing full of expectations for his practice, and at the same time, he gained more and more in the enlightenment of the Tao. Similarly... As his companion, this group of other children also benefited from it.

"Master, why are there spiritual energy in the world?"

"Because plants, animals, you and me, heaven and earth, and even all things have spirits, so this universe... naturally has spirits, and this spirit is its breath."

"Master Taoist, what is Taoist?"

"The Tao is not important. If you go home, Chen Qing, there are many roads to walk on. Each road can be different. If the Tao is different, going home is the key. So Tao... In my understanding, it is the path you choose and take after you have the direction."

"Master, what if you choose the direction, there is no way?"

"Then let's open up a way home by yourself." Wang Baole glanced at Chen Qing deeply and replied softly.

Chen Qing was thinking, and there were still many questions. After this time passed, another year later, Chen Qing, who was already seven years old, had all his questions in his heart, and on his seventh birthday, he became spiritual.

The ultimate goal of children's enlightenment is spirituality, just like grasping a ray of the universe and making it a part of itself. Generally speaking, most children will be enlightened and enlightened in the Taoist temple when they are seven or eight years old.

The morning and evening of this time actually does not represent qualifications.

Chen Qing's spiritual communication is also a little different. During the past two years of enlightenment, Wang Baole has already left the Dao in his heart. How to choose in the future depends on Chen Qing's own choice.

On this same day, Wang Baole gave Chen Qing a birthday gift.

That is... the illusory ball of nine suns, and a similar illusory mark, which is like the moon.

Floating beside Chen Qing, this day... was also winter, and the first snow started to fall just like when he came.

In the wind and snow, Chen Qing looked at the nine suns and moon seals around him, and his eyes were confused and looked at Wang Baole.

"Please choose one as your first path in this life."

Chen Qing was silent, looked around, then looked at Wang Baole again, and hesitated for a moment.

"Can I follow you?"

Wang Baole smiled, touched Chen Qing's head, and spoke softly.

"But I'm going to do something soon, so you choose one first and then wait for me to come back."

Chen Qing nodded happily, swept to the surrounding Jiuyang and the moon seal, and grabbed the moon seal in his hand.

"Then I'll choose this first."

With his choice, a long laugh came from the sky, and Situ's figure transformed into the sky and walked step by step. Nine vast figures could be seen in the clouds and mist behind him. They sighed and nodded to Wang Baole, and left one after another after Wang Baole's smile.

Only Situ took a big step and landed beside Wang Baole and Chen Qing, laughing.

"Baole, Chen Qing's eyes are too much beyond you. I have confiscated my disciples for too many years. I barely accepted half of them back then, and I taught a supreme." Situ laughed loudly, and Wang Baole also laughed aside, then his expression became serious and bowed deeply to Situ.

"Sir, I'm working."

"With me here, don't worry, Chen Qing, let's go." As he said that, Situ waved his hand, rolled Chen Qing and headed straight to the sky.

"Tao Master..." Chen Qing's reluctant voice came from the sky. In his eyes, the Taoist temple was getting smaller and the city was getting smaller. Only the gentle Taoist priest, waving figure, always existed.

"Little guy, don't be reluctant to leave. Your junior brother has something to deal with, and he will probably come back soon." Situ said with a smile.

"My junior brother?" Chen Qing was stunned.

"Yes, I don't dare to be your first master, I can only count as half of it, because you are a disciple Wang Baole accepted on behalf of his master, and he is willing to let you be your senior brother, so little guy, you have to work hard to practice."

"Uh..." Chen Qing's eyes were confused again. When he wanted to speak again, the city was no longer visible and was getting farther and farther away when he looked at him.

In the Taoist temple, the wind and snow were still there. Wang Baole stood there, staring at the figure of his senior brother gradually fading away. The snowflakes falling on the sky seemed to fall into Wang Baole's heart, forming a circle of ripples, gradually dispersing, filling his body and soul.

After a long time, Wang Baole's smile became gentler. He turned around and walked towards the distance, one step, one step...

In my previous life, you stood in front of me and sheltered me from the wind and rain at the beginning of my practice, so that the cold wind could not icy my body, and the falling rain could not drift to my soul.

No matter how I walk in my life, your figure is always on the high ground, silently paying attention, reaching out in the crisis, and transforming into nothingness, making me walk smoothly and happily.

Because, I am your junior brother.

Because, you are my senior brother.

Your tall figure is like a big tree in my eyes. Most of the time, you are not even like a senior brother, more like a master, and more like my real brother.

I can't forget the first time you appeared, wearing a blue shirt, a gourd of wine, a wooden sword, and a flowing hair, like a sword, like an immortal, outstripping, extraordinary.

I can't forget, your back of parting, the blue shirt became black, the gourd became turbid wine, the wooden sword also had spots, and everything was bleak.

I looked at you and melted into nothingness. I know that you are seeking your own way, and you are... to verify the broken road for your incompetent junior brother.

At this moment, staring at you, my mind unconsciously recalled the path of cultivation in that lifetime, with your favor, your protection, your kindness to me, and your smile to me.

Chen Qing, Chen Qing.

"In this life, I will protect you."

"In this life, I will take you into the Tao."

"In this life, I am still your junior brother."
