Chapter 187 Joy and Goodwill
At this time, several people were already at the county government office, and they even had time to find an affordable restaurant and have lunch.
"It turns out to be the real Master from Yishan Mountain, disrespectful!"
The magistrate of Mingxia is not a good official, but this type of official is always good at getting along with different people. If you are not below them but above them, you will get along with them extremely happily.
I heard that they were the nephews of the Taoist Priest who had the ability to drive away the Green Miao God. The magistrate was very respectful and always called Master Master whenever he spoke.
"Since several Master Masters are nephews of Master Chen, and the land deeds of Qingyi Temple are also in their hands, Qingyi Temple will naturally belong to several people in the future. I will do the registration here, and everything will be done.
There is no need for a few real masters to worry about it, the county government officials will naturally handle it properly."
"Thank you very much."
"Thank you very much. The Qingyi Temple has been abandoned for several years and should have been reopened long ago. With a real person in charge, I think the gods will be more effective because of it. We parents and officials will feel at ease, hahaha."
Magistrate Mingxia speaks very nicely.
After that, he called two more guards in and asked them to go to Qingyi Temple and break the seal of the Taoist Temple.
Several Taoists had to wander around the city to do shopping, so they did not join the guards. However, they did not want to listen to the county magistrate's courtesy, so they walked out of the county government office.
But I didn't expect that the middle-aged man was still there.
"Why haven't you returned yet?"
"The Taoist priests have been so kind to me, but I can't repay them." The middle-aged man was about to cry but had no tears. "Besides, the Taoist priests lent Liu Laizi more than a hundred taels of silver. I'm afraid it will be difficult to take it back. How can I have the shame to do so?"
leave?"
"Ha ha!"
The Seventh Senior Brother raised his head and laughed loudly and said: "Good faith, don't worry, that Liu Laizi has already paid back the money and gave him all the IOUs."
"Ah? When?"
The middle-aged man looked puzzled.
After meeting these Taoist priests in the morning, he had been with them all the time. They also had lunch together, which he paid for with his money. Later, he took them to the county government office and said that
After taking them to the county government office, he went back and was actually waiting for them at the door.
When will Liu Laizi pay back the money? How could he not know?
But I saw a few Taoists all laughing:
"I paid it back a long time ago."
"Don't be impatient. Although we Taoists are cultivating in the mountains and don't like to fight with others, we still have our abilities."
"The faithful will know the story in the city after two days."
The tone of several Taoists was very gentle.
"What story?"
The middle-aged man has an honest temper, but he is still in a daze, and he still doesn't understand it yet.
"You don't need to ask too much, you will know it naturally." Brother Seventh said to him, "Remember, if you come to the county again and need a place to stay overnight, you can come to Qingyi Temple to stay overnight. I am not a quiet person, and it is really difficult to be alone in a Taoist temple.
It’s so lonely.”
"After a good believer returns home, remember to guard your money. Don't trust people easily in the future. If Liu Laizi comes to find you again or changes to someone else, no matter what you say, don't trust him again." The second senior brother warned.
"If Liu Laizi comes to tease you, feel free to push my junior fellow apprentice, or pick up a pole and hit him!" The third senior fellow apprentice said, "Be aware that people love to bully the weak and bully the good!"
"There are many people at the scene today. This money is not a small amount. Please be careful when you take the money back." Lin Jue said.
"Take care of yourself!"
"嘤~"
"Meow~"
Several Taoists gave him some advice. Although the middle-aged man was still in a daze, he could not help but feel his eyes well up and feel a little moved when he heard such a tone.
The Taoists all left without saying anything more to him.
The middle-aged man walked back holding the money.
Be very careful along the way.
It didn't take two days. As soon as I reached the city gate, I heard someone talking——
"Liu Laizi..."
"money……"
"Taoist..."
The middle-aged man walked very fast, and he didn't want to hear it, but a few words always floated into his ears, and just a few words caught him and stopped him in place.
He lowered his head and listened silently, his eyes gradually widening.
Those people were talking about what happened to Liu Laizi at noon.
The middle-aged man was shocked, and then he suddenly realized that those Taoist priests were indeed capable.
Not only does he have cultivation skills, but he also has magic skills.
…
"Junior brother, look at what I do."
"Let me see your five qi."
"Oh? Junior brother can also see people's five qi?"
"You can't see it, but you can guess it."
"Junior brother, what do you think of my five qi?"
"I don't know anything else, but I know that senior brother's anger must be turbid." Lin Jue withdrew his gaze, "Senior brother is staying here alone, so you must pay attention to your health."
"this……"
While talking and laughing, we have reached the bustling city.
Buy some pots, pans, chopsticks, and chopsticks, and buy a few futons and straw mats so that you can live in the Taoist temple. Buy a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat when you see them, and prepare a handful of flowers to fill the hall, so that you can cope with the rain that will come when you don’t know when.
.
Make bedding, broom and duster.
Anyway, buy whatever you see.
It just so happens that most of the products are on this street, either in this street or in the alleys next to them. They are very concentrated, making it very convenient to compare and purchase. The prices are almost the same, and no one dares to sell high or low easily.
I even saw someone selling small donkeys. I saw the little junior sister riding the donkey very leisurely. The seventh senior brother went to the city to go to the market and didn't want to walk, so he bought one too and planned to go back and feed it well.
It’s also a way to kill time and find a place of peace of mind.
It is said that when the donkey is brought up, one day it gets drunk, so he sits on the donkey and lets it carry him back.
…
A few days later, next to the Taoist temple.
A fox stood by the pool. The fox was all white except for the tip of its tail. However, its two front feet were gray. After careful inspection, I realized that they were gray.
Lin Jue stood beside him, making magic tricks with his hands.
"Wow!"
A column of water as thick as two fingers flew up from the pool, hitting the fox in an endless stream, focusing on washing its front feet.
The fox had a serious expression and stood obediently and upright, motionless.
"Tell me, how many holes have you dug in the bamboo forest next to you in the past few days?" Lin Jue said helplessly.
"I can't count!" the fox replied honestly.
"You still can't count? You might as well sleep in the cave!" Lin Jue couldn't help but increase his tone.
A colorful raccoon cat stood not far away, staring straight at this direction, its body stiff, and its expression looked like a child who came to play with a friend, but happened to see his friend being punished by his parents.
The fox didn't know it. After hearing this, his eyes lit up and he turned to look at him seriously:
"Hey? Is that okay?"
"I also provided you with a new idea, right?" Lin Jue almost laughed at it.
"Um?"
The fox thought for a while and then answered:
“Fun!”
"...Don't you think you are a cat? How can a cat find digging holes fun?"
"fox!"
"Is it a fox again now?"
"That's what you said! I'm not a cat, I'm a fox!" Fuyao remembered his words clearly and just finished speaking, then turned his head and looked at Caili next to him, "Did you know? You're not a cat, I'm a fox!"
Caili stared at it in astonishment.
"Put fewer holes in the future."
"Foxes love to dig holes!"
"You..."
“Fun!”
"Oh, you can dig holes, but you can't dig them on the roadside, in other people's fields, on graves, or at home. You must wash your hands after drilling!"
"Know!"
The fox answered briefly and neatly, very well-behaved, but then asked: "What does it mean?"
"..."
Lin Jue had no choice but to explain to it slowly.
While explaining, he started scrubbing it with his hands.
The fox is really like a child, with endless energy, but at the critical moment he is sensible and obedient. He stands motionless and lets him scrub and wash as he pleases.
Even if his head was rubbed a little bit, he didn't care. He closed his eyes when the water flowed to them. The force of the scrubbing became too strong and pushed him unsteadily, so he stepped to the side and stood firm again.
Stand back.
At the same time, he listened carefully to Lin Jue's words.
If ordinary people saw this scene and the water column flying up automatically, they would probably be surprised.
After working for a long time, I finally cleaned it.
Lin Jue was satisfied. He looked back and saw that the colorful civet cat was still beside him, so he waved to it and said:
"Xiaohua, come here."
Obviously, this is the name given to it by my junior sister.
Caili looked up at him blankly.
"Come here!"
When Caili saw him waving, she could feel the joy in his heart without any malice, and she was very familiar with him, so she couldn't help but walk towards him, wanting to see what made him so happy.
"brush!"
A hand stretched out like lightning and grabbed the back of its neck.
"It's so hot today and you don't even take a shower. You smell like cat. I'll do a good thing and give you a shower too. Otherwise, it won't be easy to do it when the weather gets cold!"
"Wow..."
A water column shot towards it.
"Meow!"
Caili was shocked, but couldn't escape.
I heard the Taoist laughing loudly, and the laughter shook the forest trees.
Only then did Cai Li know——
It turns out that good, evil and joy come from here!
So while resisting the instinct of not wanting to move when the back of the neck was grabbed, it kicked its legs while squinting at the fox on the ground, hoping that it would save itself.
The fox looked confused and stared at it.
After a long time, one person, one fox and one cat returned to the Taoist temple.
Except for the cat, everyone and the fox are very happy.
At this time, the Qingyi Temple, like the Yangxin Temple in Qiuru City, is becoming more and more presentable. Even the originally stained walls have been plastered again. With the sunshine bamboo shadows, the tile pines planted on the dead wood and stone troughs are quite impressive.
For elegance.
The second senior brother, the third senior brother, and the younger junior sister have already packed their things and placed them under the eaves of the corridor.
This time, the luggage contains a few more coir raincoats and bamboo hats, a few more rolls of straw mats, some rice noodles and jars for pickles. Before, the puppets of the Seventh Senior Brother took up half of the space on the cart. Now that they are unloaded, they can naturally
Carry more stuff.
There are also many stone tables and benches in the Taoist temple, all newly made by the junior sister. The seventh senior brother is writing at the table.
Lin Jue walked over and took a look and saw the same couplet:
At night, when the moon shines bright, my thoughts are not far away;
The beautiful curves of Zhuyin Road create nature.
"Junior brother." The seventh senior brother turned to look at him, "What do you think of using these couplets to make the couplets at the entrance of Qingyi Temple?"
"It's very suitable, but the words are a little off."
"This is a small matter. After you leave, I will take a small bench to guard the official road when I have time. I will ask who is going to Biluo County. If anyone is going, I will ask him to bring a letter to Fourth Senior Brother for me and report it.
If the position is correct, Fourth Senior Brother can ask his crow and falcon friends to deliver the letter, and I will ask him to write one for me when the time comes."
"Good……"
Lin Jue nodded and thought.
This place is probably a thousand or two thousand miles away from Biluo County, and it may be shorter for a flying bird to walk.
If it were any further away, it would be difficult for birds to deliver the message.
Lin Jue didn't say much. Seeing that Fuyao and Caili were already lying on the light spot among the bamboo shadows, drying their hair, he went to cook too.
