Chapter 500: Yan'an Taoist
Even Zhang Weihang stared at the village chief's face tightly, obviously he also wanted to know how this treasure could be in the hands of this village chief who had no money and no power.
The sky had completely darkened, and the village chief at this time couldn't see the expressions of Lin Fei and Zhang Weihang clearly, but he felt that the two eyes had been staring at him tightly. The look in his eyes frightened him like a viper and beast, as if if if he told a lie, the two would pounce on him and break his neck.
He swallowed his mouth with great difficulty, his mouth open, but he didn't know where to start.
Lin Fei seemed to be a little anxious to wait, and his tone rose a little: "Huh?"
Finally, the village chief sighed faintly. Said: "I got this thing from the temple. ”
He didn't say much, obviously trying to get away with it. But how could Lin Fei and Zhang Weihang do what he wanted? In the dark, Lin Fei grabbed his shoulders accurately, and his subordinates secretly exerted force, revealing a hint of danger in his tone: "Is that all, are you sure?"
His voice is extremely low and good, if it were a girl here, I am afraid that half of his body would become crispy and numb. But it's a pity that the village chief is not a girl, and he is not in the mood to care about Lin Fei's voice at the moment.
In his ears, it was as if it was a call from hell, and it frightened him. He knew that the two of them would not let him go easily no matter what happened today, and if he didn't tell the truth today, he was afraid that he would not be able to see the sun the next day.
His expression became a little ugly, but he still honestly explained what had happened.
"This is a Taoist priest in a nearby temple, and I don't know what his name is, but everyone calls him Yan'an Taoist. A few days ago, I went to the temple to offer incense, and I happened to hear someone talking about it. ”
As he spoke tactfully, all three of them fell into his memories.
"The temple is not very far from the village, and I go to the temple to offer incense whenever I have free time. As soon as I walked into the lobby that day, I noticed someone inside. Because I wanted to avoid suspicion, I didn't go in directly. But just as I was about to turn away, I heard people inside talking about longevity. ”
"As you know, once people reach my age, they are greedy for life and afraid of death. So I hid outside the door and listened to them. I heard them talking about the golden armor, and I was wondering what it was, when I heard them say that it would make people live longer. ”
So I had a twisted mind to steal it. I heard from them that it was in the house of the Taoist priest in Yan'an, and I didn't do it immediately during the day, but waited until the evening for me to quietly turn back there. ”
"I was very excited when I found what they were talking about, but on the one hand, I was afraid that someone else would find out, so I quietly left with this thing. When I got back to the village, I looked around my house for a long time and didn't find out what it was for, but I thought it was also very valuable, so I hid it in the well behind the village. ”
"No one in the temple said anything about losing something, and I thought that this matter would not be discovered by others. Unexpectedly, you came here in a few days. It seems that the reincarnation of cause and effect is fixed......"
The village chief was quite honest, and did not come up with some messy excuses to perfunctory them, but directly told what happened. When he told these things, there was a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, after all, he was now empty, and he didn't get half of the benefits.
If the village elder honestly led them to find the golden armor, they would give him a corresponding reward. Although Lin Fei doesn't think he is a good person, he has always been a man of his word.
While talking, I came to the entrance of the village unconsciously. Lin Fei glanced at the village chief deeply, to be honest, he actually didn't hate the village chief. After all, what he did was an idea that every normal person would have.
So before leaving, he and Zhang Wei hung a card to the village chief and explained that it was a reward for him. The village chief waved his hand again and again and said that he couldn't ask for it, but in fact, as far as he could invite these two great gods away now, he would be willing to send money out! Where would he dare to ask for money from these two people in front of him?
But Lin Fei was also stubborn, and when he saw that the village chief didn't want it, his face immediately became gloomy. The village chief couldn't cry or laugh, and it was the first time he saw Shangjiaozi giving money to others!
He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, stretched out his hand to take the card, and said goodbye to the two.
Hearing the village chief's farewell, Lin Fei and Zhang Wei looked at each other and smiled, the village chief felt a little chill down his spine, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
Sure enough, I saw Lin Fei show a mouthful of white teeth with a smile, squinted his eyes and said to him: "Village Chief, you see that it is not early, how can you bear the two of us to rush back overnight, what if there is any danger?"
The village chief's expression froze, and sure enough, he knew that as soon as this guy opened his mouth, there was nothing good about it! But what could he do?
Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Lin Fei narrowed his eyes dangerously. Different from Fang Cai's smile, there was already a bit of threat in his eyes at this moment: "Why didn't the village chief speak? Could it be that you don't want to keep us here? Or do you actually want something to happen to us in your heart?"
At this time, how could the village chief dare to refuse? He didn't even dare to think about it. Hurriedly waved his hand to clear himself: "No, no, you think too much, how can you be? If you two want to stay here, it's too late for me to welcome it! There is a spare room next door to my house, so you two will rest there tonight! I'll show you the way." ”
Obviously, he was already in pain in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be very happy on his face, Lin Fei and Zhang Weihang were really afraid that the village chief would have something wrong.
The two of them followed the village chief to his house, and the village chief politely left them here for a meal. After eating and drinking enough, Lin Fei said to the village chief: "Now you are the only one who knows that we are here. You are the only one who knows that the golden armor is in our hands. If something happens to us, whether the whistleblower is you or not, I'll count it as if it's you!"
The village chief is really crying and laughing now, and he really doesn't know what to do with Lin Fei.
Fortunately, the night was calm, and there were no moths, and the next day they got up early in the morning. After asking the village chief for directions to the temple, he left the village.
The village chief stood at the gate of the village, his expression was calm, but he was actually very happy in his heart, and finally sent these two annoying guys away, touched the card in his arms, well, it was still there, and a big smile opened at the corner of his mouth......
Although the village chief had already pointed them in the direction, it took them a lot of effort to find the location of the temple.
Standing at the door of the temple, Lin Fei frowned deeply. What is this? It doesn't look like a temple at all, but is extremely dilapidated. He was a little disgusted on his face, but he didn't say anything in the end, and walked into the temple with Zhang Weihang.
They came here today to find the whereabouts of the Yan'an Taoist. Both of them have some unsolvable fog in their hearts, and they need this Taoist priest to answer them.
After entering the door of the temple, the two found that the inside was not so shabby on the outside, but extremely simple and clean. The temple is so large that it makes people spin around like headless flies.
After wandering around for a long time, the two finally met the first person. The man seemed to be the little Taoist priest in this temple, and he bowed after seeing the two of them. The two nodded at the little Taoist, and just as they were about to pass by, Lin Fei suddenly grabbed the sleeve of the little Taoist.
A little Taoist priest raised his head and looked at him with a little doubt, his eyes were clear and there was no trace of impurities, which made Lin Fei shake his head slightly.
Until the man gently asked, "Is there anything wrong with you?"
After he came back to his senses, he cursed in his heart, and then said to the little Taoist priest: "Yes, we do have something to do with you. I want to ask, is there a Taoist priest named Yan'an here?"
The little Taoist priest blinked his eyes slightly puzzled, a little unsure of what he was talking about. Tilting his head and thinking about it, he replied, "Hmm...... I think you're looking for the wrong person, I've never heard of any Yan'an Taoists!"
As soon as he saw the eyes of this little Taoist, he knew that he was a person who would not lie. Since he said so at this moment, he must really not know. He is not an unreasonable person, but he did not catch this little Taoist priest.
After the man walked away, he turned his head to his uncle Zhang Weihang and said, "Uncle Shi, I don't think that person is lying, now there are two possibilities, one is that the little Taoist priest has not heard of the person of Yan'an Taoist, and the other is that the village chief has deceived us." ”
Zhang Weixuan nodded thoughtfully, in fact, he looked at the village chief's expression and should not lie, after all, he had even handed over the golden armor, if he deceived them, it would be no good for him. The two of them did not go home because of this man's words, but continued to walk in the temple.
I don't know how long I walked, but a very old man finally appeared in front of me, who should be the abbot of this temple.
Far away, Lin Fei trotted all the way over, for fear that the abbot would leave, and they continued to wander around.
When he ran in front of the abbot, Lin Fei went straight to the point and said, "Old abbot, do you know if there is a person named Yan'an Taoist in this temple?"
The abbot had a white beard and a kind face, which made people unconsciously want to get closer. I saw him reach out and stroke his beard, and then said slowly: "Yan'an, he is no longer here." You're a little late, but if you had come a few days earlier, you might have seen him. ”
Hearing this, Lin Fei and Zhang Wei were stunned for a moment, and they were gone? Could it be that the Yan'an Taoist priest had passed away?
However, it is said that the family has always been compassionate, and the face of the old abbot in front of him did not show a trace of sadness, and the tone of his speech just now seemed to be extremely familiar with this Yan'an, so presumably the Yan'an Taoist priest did not pass away, but left this temple.
