The Green Dragon Temple was dedicated to the Taoist God, and the incense offerings were flourishing.
In the courtyard of the main hall grew a massive ginkgo tree, its trunk tied with countless red ribbons, intertwining with the golden yellow leaves, creating a deeply artistic impression.
Due to the heavy rain, few people were seen within the temple, except for a figure in a plain-colored long skirt, kneeling in front of the ginkgo tree, praying devoutly.
It was Luo Meili, who had been missing for several days.
By now, she looked like a drowned rat, her clothes soaked as if steeped in water, extremely damp. Her hair had already come loose, adding to her disheveled appearance, and she looked utterly exhausted.
However, her face was flushed, clearly indicative of a fever.
In the rain, she could no longer remain kneeling steadily, her body half-collapsing to the ground.
The torrential rain from the sky seemed as if poured from a basin, becoming more and more ferocious.
