Under One Person: My Name is Wan Jing Zhenjun

When the Wang family left the hotel, Qin Liyun and Zhang Zhixin were still circling around the hotel.

After questioning Wang Xiao's family, they went on to question all the rooms in the same location on several floors above and below, but in the end, they clearly didn't get any information.

At this moment, the two, who had been busy with nothing to show for it, were squatting at the hotel entrance, deep in thought.

Zhang Zhixin looked at the bustling hotel entrance, frowning, completely puzzled.

The location of the magical artifact was clearly marked, but why couldn't they find it? After visiting these rooms, they hadn't seen a single magical artifact capable of stealing or altering the five elements, let alone any supernatural beings. Everything seemed perfectly normal.

The old Taoist priest rubbed his temples, feeling a terrible headache.

In this situation, what is normal is absolutely abnormal, but they just can't figure out exactly what's abnormal...

"Xiaoyun, how is this possible? The five elements of energy in the mountain were clearly mobilized, so how could nothing have happened?"

"Master, do you think it's possible we've made a mistake? Could it be a change that occurred on Mount Tai itself?" Qin Liyun, who had been staring at the iced tea in her master's arms, looked up and replied, then casually added, "Master, would you like some iced tea? I'm quite thirsty."

Zhang Zhixin glared helplessly at Qin Liyun, tossing him the iced tea in her hand. "You brat, how could you possibly be born from Mount Tai? Do you even know what it means for heaven and earth to be born spontaneously?"

Although he said those words, Zhang Zhixin was actually thinking about them.

Extraordinary phenomena arising from the heavens and earth have naturally occurred in this world before, and have even occurred many times. For example, when the Celestial Master Zhang Daoling was born, there were rumors of meteors falling like rain and a strange fragrance lingering.

There are legends about Ge Hong, the immortal, being born, such as purple clouds filling the courtyard and clouds swirling around him. However, strictly speaking, these are all phenomena that appear to be unusual signs of heaven and earth.

And inside, there are indeed situations like today, where the five elements of heaven and earth are stirred up.

But the key question is... how is that possible?

Putting aside the fact that it's impossible for a living person to be born on Mount Tai, even if it were true, in this day and age, how could a figure like the Celestial Master be born?

I'd never heard of Zhang Zhiwei being this amazing when he was born...

Just as the old Taoist priest was feeling agitated and Qin Liyun was gulping down iced tea, Wang Xiao and his family walked out of the hotel with bags and packages.

Zhang Zhixin paused for a moment upon seeing this, then kicked Qin Liyun beside her, "Xiaoyun, look, aren't those the two families of worshippers on the third floor?"

After finishing his gulp, Qin Liyun drank the last drop of his beverage, burped, and glanced at Wang Xiao and the others. "It's definitely them. That young master's liver is damaged, his stomach qi is exhausted, and his complexion is terrible. They're easy to recognize."

"Why did they leave?" The old Taoist narrowed his eyes, feeling that Wang Xiao and his group were suspicious again. After all, the most obvious location they had been was the third floor. "Let's go, let's follow them up..."

"Hey, Master, wait a minute." Before Zhang Zhixin could finish speaking and take a step, Qin Liyun grabbed him.

Zhang Zhixin turned around and looked at his apprentice with a puzzled expression. "What's wrong?"

Qin Liyun sighed. "Master, why are we following them?"

"You silly child, they're suspects! The magic artifact's location is in that kid's room. Even if he seems innocent on the surface, he might still be guilty!" The old Taoist priest said, glancing at the Wang Xiao family walking further and further away. "Besides, we've only been there a short time, and they've already left. Don't you find that strange?"

"Abnormal?" Qin Liyun said helplessly, pointing to his Taoist robe. "Master, have you thought about it? The two of us are quite scary."

Zhang Zhixin's old face froze for a moment.

"When we were on Heavenly Street, people mistook us for fake Taoist priests who were kidnapping children. Later, they would sneak around our house. We might not seem like a problem, but Master..." Qin Liyun sighed again, "Don't you think we look like scouts for child thieves?"

Zhang Zhixin fell silent. He hadn't really thought of that, but upon reflection, it made perfect sense.

"And Master, you said their departure was suspicious, but what if you think about it from another angle?" Qin Liyun spread her hands, holding the empty iced tea bottle. "Anyone with a child being watched would probably be restless and unable to eat or sleep, right? They were clearly frightened by us. I reckon this family of believers is preparing to leave the mountain now."

"This..." Hearing Qin Liyun's words, the old Taoist priest couldn't help but touch his face, muttering to himself, "Are we really that scary?"

Qin Liyun nodded in deep agreement, "I'm afraid they'll call the police, and then I'll have to ask my uncle to bail us out."

"Well...sigh, fine then." Zhang Zhixin fell silent, sighed, and finally squatted down again, continuing to stare at the hotel entrance.

……

On the other side, Wang Xiao, along with his parents, took the cable car down the mountain.

Inside the cable car, because the space wasn't very large, Wang Xiao and Wang Ye sat opposite their parents.

Because climbing the mountain was really tiring, Wang fell asleep leaning on Wang Xiao's shoulder not long after getting in the car. Seeing this, Wang's parents knew that their youngest son was tired, so they simply didn't make a sound to disturb his sleep.

Wang Xiao, on the other hand, looked at the situation below Mount Tai through the glass window of the cable car.

The scenery you see while climbing the mountain is completely different from that you see while riding the cable car.

When climbing a mountain, he is a climber; but now, he is more like a spectator.

As dusk falls and the sun sets in the west; as the mountains rise majestically, layer upon layer of verdant peaks; as the sky clears after the rain, rainbows appear.

The scenery along the way was not only pleasing to the eye, but it also touched his heart.

At the same time, the King's parents also saw the rainbow in the sky and were immediately drawn to it, and began to talk in hushed tones.

"Honey, look, there's a rainbow."

"Keep your voice down, Fourth Brother is asleep. I'm not blind, I can see for myself."

"Oh..." Father Wang pursed his lips, looking aggrieved.

Looking at the rainbow outside the window, listening to his parents' quiet conversation, and gazing at the mountains outside, Wang Xiao couldn't help but smile.

A human life spanning a hundred years may seem like a fleeting moment to these towering mountains and vast oceans, which number in the thousands. But for a traveler, being able to witness the vastness of the landscape within a limited time is perhaps a kind of fortune.

Feeling the last rays of the setting sun on his face, Wang Xiao couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.

Such a beautiful land, how could one not miss it?

If one can live, who would willingly choose to die...

As the mountains receded into the distance, Wang Xiao remained silent the entire way, while his parents chatted quietly on the other side from time to time.

For the two elderly people, life was tough when they were young, and they didn't have the opportunity to travel. Later, when they got older, although they had more money, they couldn't go because activities like mountain climbing are physically demanding.

Although they were accompanying Wang Xiao, this was actually a novel experience for them as well.

Gradually, the cable car reached the end. Wang Xiao woke up Wang Ye, who was leaning on his shoulder and drooling, "Little brother? Little brother, wake up, we've arrived."

"Huh? Where are we?" Wang Ye, who had just woken up, was a little confused. He rubbed his eyes before he realized what was happening. He looked at his parents, who were discussing what to eat later, and muttered to himself, "So fast? It feels like a few minutes have passed."

"It's only a ten or twenty-minute walk," Wang Xiao nodded, then looked at his parents, "Mom and Dad, is this Zhongtianmen? Did you walk to Zhongtianmen to take the cable car?"

Wang Weiguo shook his head upon hearing this, "How could that be? That would be too tiring. Your mother and I came up by bus, and we can just take the bus down in a bit."
