The tall, skinny man shoved aside someone kneeling on the central prayer mat and dropped to his knees in front of the Bat God statue. He was dressed in a black hemp robe, with a large dark-red stain on its hem. From his waist, he pulled out a bundle of thick red incense, each stick as wide as an arm. The incense had an unusual sheen and was a brighter red compared to ordinary incense. Clutching the bundle in both hands, the man bent down and lit the incense using the oil lamp placed beneath the…-

Chapter 134: Bat God Temple
It’s not uncommon for spirits and creatures of the wild to establish temples and receive offerings of incense from humans. In Gu Ning’an’s view, as long as such wild deities genuinely perform good deeds for people, it’s only fair for them to be worshipped and offered incense. Of course, in the eyes of orthodox deities, these illicit shrines and cult worship practices are absolutely intolerable. This isn’t merely because wild deities compete for incense offerings, but also because they often…-

"Alright, that's it for today's lesson on the Book of Songs. Are you hungry? I'll go cook some noodles for you," said Li Fangchang, rising from his desk. At that moment, Tang Zi, Wang Sheng, and Sun De all stood up, approached him, and said in unison, "Teacher, you sit down—we’re going to teach you today!" Hearing this, Li Fangchang smiled. "Oh? You three little ones are going to teach me?" "Did the sun rise in the west today?" Tang Zi tugged at Li Fangchang’s sleeve and grinned. "Teacher Li,…

Chapter 132: Showing Off
Li Fangzhang ran out the door and searched everywhere for a long time, but he couldn’t find any trace of Gu Ning’an. The villagers gathered outside, those who could still speak, mentioned seeing a man in a green robe leaving with a Daoist. But even after running far in the direction they pointed, Li Fangzhang still couldn’t find Gu Ning’an. When he returned to the Lu family’s wooden house, a group of villagers who enjoyed gossiping was still gathered out front. Earlier, when Li…-

Chapter 131: Burning
Everyone followed the direction pointed out by the young Daoist and couldn’t help but look a bit puzzled. “Master Daoist, is there an evil spirit hiding in this teapot?” the honest man asked, disbelief evident in his tone. “What teapot? I was talking about...” The young Daoist turned around and froze in place. He hurriedly leaned over the wooden table, searching frantically while muttering in a panicked voice, “Where is it? Where’s the thing?!” The honest man asked, “May I…-

Chapter 130: Wood Carving
The group of gossiping women all looked terrified, glancing at one another. They desperately tried to make a sound, but couldn’t even manage the faintest “mm-mm” noise. The "three little quails" stared wide-eyed in astonishment. Wang Sheng couldn’t help but exclaim, “Good heavens, they really can’t talk anymore!” “Confucius said, ‘The way of Heaven has its cycles; none can escape retribution,’” Sun De quipped with a grin. “That’s enough. Follow me inside,” Gu Ning’an said,…-

In the mountain forests after the rain, mist lingered, enveloping the distant peaks. Half-hidden in the clouds, the mountains’ full majesty was obscured, leaving an air of mystery. The first rays of morning sunlight pierced through the mist, casting the wilderness in the soft hues of an ink wash painting. Inside the wooden hut turned classroom, the “three little quails” were each covered with a thin blanket, sprawled haphazardly on the ground in deep slumber. Gu Ning’an stepped out…

The woman alternated between scolding and pouring out the worries she’d carried for Li Fangchang over the years. She truly treated him as her own son—perhaps even more so than her actual child, investing far more effort and care into him. Li Fangchang wasn’t ungrateful; he too regarded this woman as his mother. So, even now, as a grown man, he didn’t mind when she scolded or beat him. He knew it was her way of expressing love. At this moment, the storm raged outside, while the…

At an old wooden table, a nervous Li Fangchang sat across from the charming woman, wringing his hands repeatedly. After a long pause, he stammered, “May… may I ask for the lady’s name?” The woman extended her index finger, dipped it lightly in the tea before her, and began writing on the table. “Yu Zhengzheng?” Li Fangchang read the delicate script on the table and couldn’t help joking, “Miss, you’re so graceful, but your name sounds so strong and unyielding.” “Hehe…”…

Chapter 126: A Good Match
"Mr. Gu, do you think Sister Hu and Teacher Li were a good match?" Wang Sheng asked curiously. Gu Ning'an smiled and replied, "It's hard to say. Whether they're suitable or not is up to them." "Oh, Wang Sheng, what a pointless question!" "Sister Hu seems like a good-natured person, but the size difference between her and Teacher Li is just too much. Of course, they're not a good match," Tang Zi interjected. Nearby, Sun De nodded sagely and added, "Confucius said, 'When paths differ,…-
