Peerless Taoist

For a moment, Lu Yu found his own shadow on this small child.    

The hunger was still ongoing, and Chen Ling's stomach began to rumble. This was destined to be a difficult day.    

Lu Yu could not bear to see this scene. He pretended to be fumbling around and took out a few buns from his storage space.    

These two buns were emitting steam.    

Lu Yu was an immortal, and he could turn stone into gold. Creating things out of thin air was no longer a problem.    

Moreover, his storage space was already quite complete. It was vast and abundant with all kinds of things. It had a huge amount of food ingredients and raw materials, and it could create all kinds of food in an instant.    

However, the stomachs of these two children had suffered from hunger for a long time. They could not bear to eat such exquisite delicacies. In comparison, these buns were what they really needed.    

After the flour was steamed, the fragrance it emitted immediately spread throughout the entire hall.    

Lu Yu could sense that Chen An and Chen Ling's throats rolled slightly.    

"Where did you get the buns from? Why are they still hot?" Chen An looked at Lu Yu in surprise.    

Lu Yu's actions were too unexpected. He would never have thought that this young man would take out food out of thin air.    

Lu Yu casually took out a bun and took a bite. He then said indifferently, "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."    

His words immediately resolved Chen An's embarrassment. Chen An held the bun in his hand, but he did not eat it directly.    

"Don't worry, I owe you two buns today. I will remember it. I will definitely repay you in the future." Chen An said solemnly.    

Lu Yu said indifferently, "There's no need. I am very grateful that you are able to stay here with me. These two buns are my room fee."    

"No way! One is one. Although I don't have much money, I am not a beggar. This is what I owe you!" Chen An's words were sonorous and powerful.    

He stuffed the bun into his sister's hands and then began to wolf it down. The empty hall was filled with the sounds of two children chewing.    

The two children were eating very well. Lu Yu could not bear to disturb them. His ears were sharp and his eyes were bright. He immediately sensed that there were many messy footsteps on the mountain road.    

The two children were already very hungry. They had eaten more than half of the buns in their hands. They refused to eat the rest. They wanted to wait for the old monk to return and leave them with food. Only when Lu Yu promised to leave food for the old monk did they finish eating the buns in their hands.    

Seeing the two children who were still hungry, Lu Yu took out two more buns and placed them in Chen An's hands.    

Dong! Dong! Dong!    

Suddenly, there was a burst of urgent knocking on the door of the old temple.    

"The old man is back?" Chen An stood up and walked out of the door, but was stopped by Lu Yu.    

"It's raining outside. Wait here."    

Lu Yu casually opened the umbrella he had placed outside the door and walked to the door of the temple.    

Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was opened, a group of people rushed in.    

"It's raining so heavily. Finally, I can climb up!"    

"Quickly, go into the house! Quickly!"    

The group of people spoke in a dialect, and their bodies were already drenched. They could not wait to rush into the temple's hall.    

"Who are you? Who allowed you to come in? Get out!" When Chen An saw this scene, he immediately stood up anxiously and shouted.    

"Little boy, we suffered a disaster at the foot of the mountain. We came here to hide from the rain." The voice of a villager was trembling.    

"Old Li? Why are you all here?" Chen An was surprised. He had obviously recognized the villager in front of him.    

"The dam collapsed and the flood started. Everything in the village is in trouble..." The villager was a dark-skinned, tough man. At this moment, he looked terrified and muttered to himself.    

Fifty to sixty people rushed in from outside. There were men and women, and all of them had a look of panic on their faces. There were old people, women, and children. The crying and wailing sounded. The entire hall immediately became lively.    

It was fortunate that this hall was very large. Even with so many people coming in at the same time, it did not seem crowded.    

"The flood is actually so serious!"    

Chen An suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Did you see my master?"    

The villagers had just escaped from their panic, and they were still in a state of shock. No one paid attention to what Chen An was saying.    

Chen An immediately became anxious. He rushed to Elder Three Li and shook his shoulders with all his might. He roared, "I ask you, where is my master?"    

"Master Chen Shu seems to have gone to save people."    

"The flood is coming. Master Chen Shu ran down the mountain in advance to inform us, which was why we had the time to come up the mountain."    

"Master Chen Shu is a good person."    

Everyone was discussing. Many people were still in a state of shock, and their gratitude towards the old monk could not be any greater.    

Lu Yu listened from the side. He finally knew the old monk's original name.    

If the old monk had not come in time to remind them, they would have been drowned in the flood and suffered countless casualties.    

In addition to their gratitude, everyone suddenly remembered what the old monk had done in the village.    

The bridge by the river was broken, so the old monk used stones to build a stone bridge. When the cows in the village were sick, the old monk went to treat them.    

Normally, when harvesting wheat, there was not enough labor in the village, so the old monk would also make timely moves. He only wanted a bowl of rice, and there was nothing else he wanted.    

No one cared about the kindness of a drop of water in ordinary days. It was often a helping hand in the snow, and it was the most memorable thing.    

"If the flood recedes, we will definitely erect a statue for him." The villagers said in unison.    

When Chen An heard their voices, they sounded incomparably harsh.    

He did not want to hear about it in the future. He only asked loudly about where his Master was.    

"I know where Master Chen Shu is." A weak voice came from the crowd.    

It was a pregnant woman who was supported by a few other women. Her face was still a little pale.    

She seemed to be approaching the day of her delivery. She could not bear the intense journey. Her voice was slightly trembling as she said, "The children in the village have gone missing. Master Chen Shu helped to find them, but he still has not seen him."    

"Old man, you are already so old. Why are you going there?" Chen An's eyes immediately turned red.    

He turned around and wanted to rush out to find his Master. Suddenly, a broad palm stopped him. "I should go!"    

A burly man stood up from the crowd. His body was wet and his face was also a little pale.    

This person was Hu Tieniu, the hunter Lu Yu had met in the mountains.
