“Thanks, father!” Qin Huaiyong heard her words and saw her cheerful bowing decorating with her water-like eyes and flower-like smile, and he could tell she was thrilled.

This kid was kind and friendly as she didn’t mention anything that could make him feel embarrassed, and her smile looked so sincere.

So from now on, Wanru would be raised by Ruolan, and he knew Ruolan’s characters which would make her treat this kid very well. Therefore, he thought he didn’t owe her.

Qin Huaiyong didn’t stay on the mountain for a long time. He comforted Qin Wanru with a few sentences and then left.

Madam Xin and Luo Xiaowan left on the same day after they finished their lunches. Qin Wanru sent them to the foot of the mountain, and she whispered with Luo Xiaowan many issues. Finally, she followed Madam Xin and left reluctantly.

“Miss, let’s go back!” Qing Yue took a glimpse at the forest at the back mountain and reminded Qin Wanru and said. Even though it was in the daytime now, Qing Yue felt worried because the accident happened here to Qin Yuru.

“Nothing to be worried about.” Qin Wanru shook her head. Madam Xin went down towards the back mountain. Looking around, she found a path and said, “Let’s go further.”

“Miss, where is this path leading to?” Staring at this separate path and said worriedly. She was not familiar with this place and was concerned if any accident happened. She was very alert because of Madam Di’s scary behaviors.

“No idea, just go!” Qin Wanru fell on several clusters of orchids by the path.

There were only several clusters, and none of them were in top quality but the most ordinary one as if they grew by the roadside randomly. All of them were blooming in yellow flowers, which were not large but delicate. It was not super gorgeous but subtle enough that a gravel path was dotted with several clusters of orchids like this.

A gravel path was unfolding in front of her, and it was precisely the one that brought Madam Xin and Luo Xiaowan down the mountain. While this path was leading the foot of the hill, so where was this one leading?

It was rarely likely that both paths led to the same destination, which was the foot of the mountain. Moreover, both of them scattered gravels, and Jingxin Monastery wouldn’t do something unnecessary.

“Come, let’s go have a look!” Qin Wanru found it imposing, so she turned around and lifted her foot.

“Miss, I think we shouldn’t go!” Qing Yue was very worried. Although she still followed behind Qin Wanru, she was concerned.

“It’s alright!” Qin Wanru shook her head. Standing and looking at the path for a few more minutes, she lifted her foot again, and an assumption just came into her mind. However, she didn’t know if her guess was correct, so she would explore it yourself.

Finding her Miss was so determined, Qing Yue had no way but followed behind her and walked carefully into the forest.

After a few steps, a turn came into their views alongside with several orchids which were blooming in small flowers and demonstrating an attractive posture. Those orchids looked normal but emanated a sense of elegance of the autumn day.

In the wake of several turns, Qin Wanru stood there to have rest as the path was leading them to go up and down from time to time. She looked back and found the path was going up generally. Far away, the land of grass had three huts resting on it, and several tall and beautiful bamboos growing behind huts.

It was the purple bamboos which were different from other ordinary green bamboos.

She smiled slightly. It seemed that she found it.

She approached the huts and found it was locked, and the windows were shut tightly as well. Then she turned to the back of the huts and found several purple bamboos, bunches of orchids. This was a serene accommodation.

She lifted her head and knew that this place was below the side of the top of Jingxin Monastery and was not behind it. She could see a few Buddhist halls above Jingxin Monastery. Smoking of incense was drifting in the air, and the peaceful Buddha’s rhythm could also be heard, but all of these would not bother anyone.

This was an excellent place for meditation and learning the knowledge of Zen.

“Miss, nobody is around!” Qing Yue walked around the hut for three times but found nothing, “maybe this is a deserted house, it seems that no one is living here for a long time.”

“Someone is living here!” Qin Wanru shook her head and spotted a bamboo hat, which was still wet, hanging outside the door.

She looked at the sun in the middle of the autumn day. The bamboo made hat could not be wet if it were put in the sun for a long time.

Qing Yue followed Qin Wanru and saw the wet bamboo hat as well. She couldn’t help but touch it and got surprised, “Miss, it’s wet. Who… who is living here? Who would choose not to live in Jingxin Monastery but here? Couldn’t it be… be some male pilgrim?”

“No!” Qin Wanru shook her head. It was widely known in Jiangzhou that Jingxin Monastery would never keep any male pilgrims to stay overnight, and even her father would never break the rule.

If a male pilgrim could be retained here, then it would be impossible that an easily found path like this would be ignored even in people’s gossips.

“Female pilgrims would live up on the mountain, and male pilgrims are not allowed to live here. So who else would live here except all the pilgrims?” Qing Yue asked in confusion and raised her head to check around. “Miss, this is a nice place for living. It’s quiet, and it has good scenery. Both Jingxin Monastery and the mountains are in the view.”

Qin Wanru’ cherry-like lips bent up and smiled, “does it have to be some pilgrim?”

“Who would live in the mountain if it’s not a pilgrim?” Qing Yue asked that unconsciously.

Qin Wanru pointed up there with a smile on her face, but she didn’t say anything. Looking at this hut, she skewed her beautiful head to the other side a little bit and started to think.

Qing Yue followed her movement and looked up, but she found nothing except the sky and the Buddha hall standing.

“Miss, there is only a Monastery up here, and is nun of Monastery living here?” Qing Yue didn’t see anything, so she pouted her mouth. But when she finished her sentence, she jumped up surprisingly, “ah, Miss, is it the nun from Jingxin Monastery?”

Qin Wanru walked around the hut but concluded that nothing was around it. So she put her concentration on the vast land of grass. She took a few steps and squatted there. Then she noticed three clovers which looked the same. This grass had three leaves, which made them look normal if Qin Wanru had never read any medical books. However, she now knew that these clovers were herbs.

She raised her eyes again and checked other places. It was not a vast land of grass that they were standing on but a grassland where planted many herbs. Her smile grew wider now.

“Let’s go back now!” Qin Wanru stood up while her eyes were still lingering on the hut. She stared it carefully again and said.

“Yes, Miss!” Qing Yue looked at Wanru eagerly who seemed to be very confident, but Qing Yue still didn’t understand anything.

They took less time than they came here. Qin Wanru walked on the path and turned into the forest. Jingxin Monastery was behind this forest.

Qin Wanru relocated herself for the best position and saw the Buddha hall that she had seen from the hut and also the Zen room of the Jingxin Monastery master.

The Zen room of the Jingxin Monastery master was not in the center of the Jingxin Monastery but somewhere a little bit far from it.

Standing outside the Zen room of Jingxin Monastery master, Qin Wanru hesitated for a few seconds and walked in. The nun waiting at the door bowed to her before went into the room and reported her visiting message to the master of Jingxin Monastery.

After a while, a nun showed up, “Second Miss Qin, our master invited you to go inside!”

Qin Wanru smiled politely, asking Qing Yue to stay by the door, and she walked into the room along.

The fragrance of the incense emitting from the censer on the platform was floating in the room quietly and beautifully. The aroma of the Buddha’s incense differed from other normal ones as it conveyed tranquility and could make people feel secure and composed. The minute she walked in, she felt much more refreshed.

It seemed that the master of Jingxin Monastery who was sitting on her knees on the rush cushion didn’t feel surprised on seeing her at this moment.

“Nun, can I ask something about Mingqiu Nun?” Qin Wanru stepped forward and sat on her knees on another rush cushion. She bowed, with her heading lowering down, and asked.

“She is not here.” The master of Jingxin Monastery replied kindly.

“Nun, can I ask if Mingqiu Nun is still in Jiangzhou?” Qin Wanru added.

“Maybe she is, and maybe not. After she left Jingxin Monastery, it became unnecessary for her to tell me where she is going.” Jingxin Monastery said with a smile. Her eyes filled with profound significance when they fell on Qin Wanru.

“Do you think if I can find Mingqiu Nun?” Qin Wanru changed her way in asking.

“Well… that depends on your destiny. Fate comes and goes. It sounds easy, but sometimes it can be tricky!” The words of the Jingxin Monastery master made people think.

Qin Wanru became more curious because of her words. Her long eyelashes fluttered, and she raised her big black eyes, smiling and looking at the master of Jingxin Monastery, “Could you please bring a word to Mingqiu Nun for me?”

“What do you want to tell her?”

“I want to ask Mingqiu Nun to teach me medical skill please.” Qin Wanru sat upright, and the smile on her face disappeared, which made her look more serious now.

“This depends on your fate!” Jingxin Monastery smiled to Qin Wanru and said. Then she reached to pick up three incenses by her side and gave them to Qin Wanru. She pointed to the censer burner on the corner of the platform by the window and said, ” go and burn some incense, then you’ll know if you have the fate!”

Qin Wanru stood up and accepted the incense with respect. Walking to the incense platform, she ignited the three incenses and planted them into the incense burner when she was drawn attention to an opened book on the platform.

That was a medical book which was different from the one she had before. After she was reborn into her current life, Qin Wanru has read the book for a long time and was so familiar to its content that she could almost remember everything in it. Therefore, she could tell that this one was different.

But the layout and binding of the book shared some similarities with the one she owned, and some contents were precisely the same.

“Is this the following one?” Qin Wanru turned around and asked Jingxin Monastery master. Although she never heard that her medical book had a following one, the page she turned on contained more sophisticated instructions and the herbs showed in the pictures and texts were strange to her as well.

This medical book was more esoteric than the one she had before.

Jingxin Monastery master looked at Qin Wanru and laughed out loud suddenly. She was observing Qin Wanru mildly, “that medical book, you finished reading already?”

Qin Wanru returned to the rush cushion and sat down, and she replied while sat respectfully and uprightly, “I have read it comprehensively.”

“What do you think of it?” Jingxin Monastery master asked with a smile.

“I want to learn medicine.” Qin Wanru crouched over the ground to demonstrate her sincerity to Jingxin Monastery master respectfully. She was determined as this was the reason she came here today.

Medicine was the technique to protect her! To save herself and also for the one who saved her!
