Chapter 638: Chapter 638: Opening the Door to a New World

At that moment, Ah Dao was outside pulling weeds when he saw the old man whom the young master and Bai Junjun had rescued last night slowly coming out, still staring blankly at the ruins. Ah Dao nodded coldly as a greeting and continued to focus on his work.

Although the young master had mentioned he heard some noises at the door last night, Ah Dao certainly didn’t believe such child’s play stories.

He suspected this old man had an extraordinary background and possibly harbored some secrets.

Otherwise, given the young master’s attitude of ignoring everything once he fell asleep, as if nothing could bother him, not even if the old man had collapsed at the front door or broke a large stone with his chest right there, the young master could have ignored his existence.

Therefore, since the confession session, Ah Dao had inexplicably relaxed his attitude.

After all, the whole team was full of big shots; compared to them, he was just a simpleton who didn’t need to worry over everything unnecessarily.

Just as he finally saw an adult, Elder Monk Shan Ci was about to carefully ask about the situation here, Bai Lingyu thoughtfully showed him the way.

"Grandpa, I’ll take you to take a bath."

The path from here to Snow Garden wasn’t far, and the old monk was so astonished by the bathhouse facilities that he was lost for words.

Xiao Yu was happily introducing him to shower heads and pipes, explaining how turning this would start the water, and covering that would stop it, and even distinguishing between items for bathing and shampooing.

The old monk listened, utterly baffled.

After Bai Lingyu finished the introduction, he left with a big smile.

The old monk stood dazed for a long time before figuring out how to turn the water valve; water unexpectedly poured out from overhead and hit him squarely in the face, the force almost knocking him senseless.

Monk Shan Ci felt as though he had entered a new world; he wondered what these strange showerheads were!

However, after overcoming his initial fear, he slowly discovered how magical and convenient this device was.

It was as if crafted divinely and marvelously, astonishing to the Heavenly Beings.

As he bathed, Shan Ci even started to feel reluctant to leave the bathhouse.

While Xiao Chan and the others were waiting outside, turning almost into stones, Elder Monk Shan Ci finally emerged, feeling refreshed and clear-headed.

He was wearing Ah Dao’s clothes.

Fortunately, Ah Dao favored dark colors, so the old monk wearing his clothes didn’t look out of place.

Once he came out, everyone discovered that the old monk had a kind and gentle appearance, looking very approachable.

Children naturally liked kind and benevolent old grandpas, and coupled with his magical encounter, everyone was even more willing to act as his guides.

The old monk was staying in Plum Garden, opposite Snow Garden, which Ah Dao had recently cleaned up; although it was only a rough arrangement, there were still many things left unattended.

After returning, Bai Sasa brought him a chair to rest and sunbathe on the corridor while they joined Ah Dao’s team to continue weeding and tidying up the neglected garden.

Only then did the old monk realize that the vast Bai Residence was not as he had imagined its glorious return; currently, only a few scattered individuals remained.

Unexpectedly, after three years of war, the former Imperial Capital had changed beyond recognition.

Now that they were caught in this quagmire, their future path was uncertain.

If the Bai Residence were still the foremost among the Shi clans, he might have had some support, but now with just these few children left, it added to the already dire conditions of the Shi clans, and he hardly knew how to proceed.

The old monk was considering whether he should leave before anyone noticed, to avoid further burdening them.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli came over, yawning.

They greeted the old monk.

While they had been focused on weeding, Little Radish Head and the others, upon seeing Bai Junjun and Li Wenli, immediately shifted their attention to them, chattering and asking endless questions.
