Chapter 81: Chapter 81 Shaolin Temple Muscle, Tendon Changing Classic
Luo Hanchen sorted out his emotions and found Tao Ti. He tried to look very calm and asked softly, “Will she… appear again?”
Tao Ti shook her head, her little face wrinkling like a little old lady. She stretched out her chubby little hand to pat Luo Hanchen on the shoulder as if to comfort him.
“The young lady has gone to be reincarnated, which is a good thing. You should be happy for her!”
Luo Hanchen looked down, clearly not comforted by these words.
“The resentment was too deep, and the young lady turned into a vengeful spirit. If she couldn’t resolve her resentment, she would lose the chance to be reincarnated, which would be very unfortunate!”
Luo Hanchen asked huskily, “If she can’t be reincarnated, what will happen in the end?”
“The resentment would deepen over time, gradually making her lose her sanity. She could be captured by a powerful Ghost King, enslaved, or even devoured, with her Divine Soul utterly destroyed.”
This was still in her last dream when she had just learned this new knowledge, immediately using what she had just learned.
She felt a bit of pride inside; she remembered everything, without missing a single word! Hee hee!
“Then… it’s better that she left…” Luo Hanchen sighed softly. “I hope in her next life she will be reborn into a good family and won’t meet a father like me. Someone who couldn’t protect her, someone who harmed her.”
The little chubby hand patted his shoulder again. Tao Ti, with a serious face, said, “You are indeed somewhat responsible. If you had arranged everything sooner, the bad people wouldn’t have caught her and wouldn’t have used her to threaten you! However, there was no other choice in your later decisions. She has let go of it long ago! She has reconciled and gone to be reincarnated; why do you still keep it in your heart?”
Tao Ti puffed up her cheeks and put her hands on her hips, lecturing like a little adult, “Besides, you have become a monk now; how can you not let go? Previously, I saw in another group’s short video that once you become a monk, all grudges should be resolved, right?”
Luo Hanchen stared at the indignant Little Taotie in front of him, seeing in her eyes the sentiment of disappointed affection.
“She’s right!” The old monk, holding a pack of dried tofu, walked over having heard the conversation and showed the most loving smile in front of Taotie, “Here, your favorite dried tofu, for you.”
Tao Ti blinked at him, remembering that he called her fat, turned away, and ignored him.
Done for! He really offended the little cutie!
The old monk held the dried tofu and moved in front of her. She turned in another direction, giving him the cold shoulder. The old monk moved in front of her again, and she turned away once more. In this way, the old and the young went back and forth, one coaxing and one sulking for quite some time.
Watching the two of them, Luo Hanchen’s mood gradually calmed down, recalling how his daughter used to sulk with him.
A gentle breeze blew by, the wind at his ear so tender, as if his daughter was softly saying, “Goodbye.”
He reached out to touch the wind, trying to grasp it, but the breeze slipped through his fingers. His heart also let go and felt at peace.
At the other end, the old monk finally appeased Tao Ti, agreeing to take her to the back mountain to pick pears and teach her the Muscle, Tendon Changing Classic of Shaolin Temple.
“Is the Muscle, Tendon Changing Classic really that amazing?” Tao Ti tilted her head, her eyes full of eagerness.
The old monk guaranteed confidently, “This is the Shaolin Temple’s secret technique!”
Tao Ti eyed him skeptically and questioned, “Do you really know it?”
The old monk stood up straight, striving to show off his vigor despite his age, and proudly said, “I am seventy years old this year. Can’t tell, can you?”
Tao Ti nodded honestly: “I can tell.”
