Chapter Seventy-Three: The Strange Young Taoist Priest

The old grandson sighed: "Actually, there is nothing to hide, everyone in a radius knows this."

There was originally a mountain temple on Naweihu Mountain, but later due to the war, there was no incense, and the mountain temple gradually fell into disrepair.

I don't know when a tiger demon suddenly appeared, occupying the mountain temple and began to dominate the king, and devouring human beings happened from time to time. Whether it is a passing traveler, a woodcutter who goes up the mountain to chop wood, or a healer looking for medicine, they have all been poisoned by it.

My miserable nephew was eaten by him when he went up the mountain to chop wood.

The people in the vicinity have not thought about getting rid of this scourge, but the beast is so powerful that we can't do anything about it. ”

The others are fine, as long as they don't go up the mountain, they won't be in danger, but they, woodcutters, don't go up the mountain to cut wood, what else?

So I could only risk my life to enter the mountain, trembling every time, praying not to run into the tiger demon.

His nephew, because his wife was sick, wanted to cut a few more loads of firewood so that he could have money to buy medicine, so he went into the mountains several times in a row, but he was unlucky to meet the tiger demon and never came back.

The sister-in-law, who was already in poor health, was grief-stricken and became more seriously ill after knowing this, and she didn't know if she could hold on.

Chen Jingle looked up and looked into the distance, the trees on Naweihu Mountain were lush, and compared to the next few mountains, they were taller and darker in color.

There seems to be a pair of invisible eyes, looking this way.

Chen Jingle retracted his gaze, and then asked, "I heard Uncle Sun say that you want to find a Taoist priest to do things?"

"That's right. ”

Lao Sun Tou nodded: "Shaoxia, do you have any Taoist friends you know?"

Chen Jingle shook his head: "No." ”

The old grandson looked disappointed.

"But I'm willing to help inquire. ”

"Thank you Shaoxia!"

The old grandson said gratefully, it is always good to have one more person to help, and with the help of this young man, things may be simpler.

At the same time, a foreigner also came to the west of the town.

This person was wearing a dark blue robe, but the clothes were slightly shabby, and he was carrying a bamboo box behind him, and a flag was inserted on the bamboo box, and the flag was written with the four big characters of "Iron Mouth Straight Break".

It turned out to be a Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest looked like a dusty man, and after stepping into the town, he sat cross-legged by the bridge and set up a fortune-telling stall, but his face was too young, and no one came to ask for most of the day.

However, a few little daughters-in-law walked across the bridge, and when they saw the sad face of this Taoist priest, they couldn't help but chuckle.

"Contentment is always happy, and the heart is comfortable, which is not lighter than not fighting. Hey, that's easy to say. ”

The young Taoist priest laughed at himself: "I am a dignified disciple of Feiyun Guan, but I have been reduced to the point where no one cares about the roadside stalls, and I am ashamed of the ancestors of the past dynasties." ”

If you let your master know, it's strange if you don't get angry and come back to life.

The Taoist priest's face was ashamed, and he suddenly smelled the fragrance of the food of several families next to him, and suddenly his spirit was lifted, and his stomach began to growl.

It's even more bitter down there.

……

After listening to the old grandson's words, Chen Jingle thought about it and took out a silver ingot: "Uncle Sun, please help that aunt find a doctor, and take care of the illness first." ”

"I can't help it!" the old grandson was so frightened that he refused again and again.

How dare he accept such a big ingot of silver.

In these years, the purchasing power of silver is still very strong, and ordinary people like Lao Sun Tou and them spend at most three or five taels of silver a year.

However, Chen Jingle made a move of ten taels of silver, which made him at a loss.

The owner of the tea stall next to him also looked surprised.

Chen Jingle directly stuffed the silver taels into the hands of the old grandson: "Uncle Sun, you should treat this money as if you picked it up, I asked you to take it to your sister-in-law to see a doctor, not for you." And you have to find someone to do things for your nephew, which is another expense. ”

He was just moved by compassion for a while, anyway, a mere ten taels of silver was nothing to him.

But for the aunt who lost her son, it was enough to save her life and support her to live. In this era, when the poor are sick, they can almost only wait for death.

Chen Jingle always believes that good people will be rewarded!

Think of it as the cost of finding out the news.

Lao Sun was at a loss for what to do with the silver ingot, and finally simply knelt down and kowtowed to Chen Jingle: "Thank you Shaoxia!"

Where did Chen Jingle dare to bear it, he would lose his life, so he quickly flashed to the side and helped the old grandson up.

"Uncle Sun doesn't have to be like this, you just need to get things done, and the matter of asking for a doctor will trouble you. ”

"No hassle, no hassle. ”

The old grandson was excited, where would there be any opinions.

"Young chivalry, I Lao Zhang invited you for this steamed bun!" the tea stall owner gave a thumbs up and gave a steamed bun.

Chen Jingle smiled, and his mood was extremely comfortable.

……

After separating from Lao Suntou, Chen Jingle left the tea stall and walked along the streets of the town at will, studying the customs and customs of the neighborhood.

When I walked across the stone arch bridge, I was stunned when I saw the Taoist who was setting up a stall by the bridge.

Eh, let's find a Taoist priest, isn't there a Taoist priest?

Chen Jingle was slightly stunned and immediately stepped forward.

The young Taoist was listless, and when he saw someone coming over, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he shouted: "Exorcise ghosts and demons, fortune telling, word measurement, marriage, five hundred years before counting, five hundred years later, no money is allowed!"

In the next second, he piled up a warm smile and said to Chen Jingle: "This little brother, seeing that you are full of heaven and surrounded by purple qi, you must have been born in a rich and noble family, what do you want to count?

“……”

Chen Jingle paused, and suddenly regretted a little, this guy feels very unreliable, it's okay to find him to do things?

When the young Taoist saw that the business that was about to arrive was about to fly, he was immediately anxious, and he had an idea: "That's it, if you can't calculate it accurately, the poor Taoist won't charge you a penny, if it's okay, little brother, you can reward you at will, what's the matter?"

Chen Jingle shook his head: "I don't count my life, but I want to ask the Taoist chief for help." ”

Hearing Chen Jingle say that he didn't tell his fortune, the young Taoist priest was still a little disappointed, but when he heard that he was going to ask him for help, he suddenly cheered up and slapped his chest loudly: "Young man, please rest assured, even if you have something to say, the poor Taoist will definitely know everything and say everything!"

"Will you do something?"

"This is natural, this is the best job of the poor road!"

The Taoist priest held his head high and looked confident.

It's a pity that Chen Jingle can only believe half of his words, and half of them are too much.

"Just now I promised an uncle to help him find a Taoist priest who can do things, and if you can do it, then you. ”

"Poor Dao is naturally no problem!"

The young Taoist priest perked up, paused, and said with a sneer: "But let's make it clear first, that, Poor Dao has been in a hurry for the past two days, and these internal organs have been protesting for a long time, and I don't know if it is inconvenient for the young man...... Hey hey ......"

Chen Jingle was speechless, feeling that he had encountered a pitfall, and he really wanted to regret it on the spot.

But seeing this guy's sincere face, I decided to see his performance first.

Take the Taoist priest to the tea stall and order a few steamed buns and a pot of tea.

It seems that this guy is really hungry when he gobbles up.

Chen Jingle shook his head secretly, if he really had the ability, there was no reason why he would be so miserable.

"By the way, I haven't consulted the Taoist number yet. ”

The little Taoist priest swallowed the bun in his mouth vigorously, rubbed his hands and smiled embarrassedly: "Poor Dao Niu is bold, the master left early, and now he is a Taoist priest of Youfang." ”

Cow bold?

Chen Jingle's face was strange, this name ...... So familiar!
