On the third day, after politely declining Chang Ning's offer of company, Gu Zhao and Yunyang took a stroll around town. They had breakfast, bought a stack of red paper, and then made their way to the Celestial Master's Mansion.
"Senior, we're back!"
"Welcome, welcome!"
Taoist Ming Yu greeted them with a wide smile, inviting them to sit. He had the young Daoist beside him, Chang Le, take the red paper and store it inside the house.
"You two should walk around more and mingle with other young people. You don't have to come keep an old man like me company," Taoist Ming Yu said with a laugh.
"But you're the only one who can answer my questions!" Gu Zhao sat down next to Taoist Ming Yu and started fishing for gossip. "Yunyang and I are both young, and there isn't much opportunity for us to use our skills in the country. Why don't you tell us some stories from the old days?"
