Chapter 16 Picking People Up

Lichen returned to the front yard with a straight face, and casually grabbed someone and asked him to inform everyone to gather in the Sanqing Palace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After a while, the Sanqing Hall was full of people, and there were forty or fifty people in the black pressure. There are men and women, old friends and young friends. It makes the Xuanguang Temple not like a Taoist temple and a place for cultivation, but like a landlord's compound. Bustling, noisy. It's like a wet market.

Lichen's expression was serious. I just thought that there were only more than a dozen relatives and the like. But I didn't expect a few maids to be bolder than expected. So many people eat and drink for nothing. The reward that I wanted to come to the court and the money that Yunhua brought back were already half less.

Lichen looked at everyone and didn't speak, but his face was not very good-looking. The noise in the crowd is not taken care of. Gradually, the voices of the crowd became quieter.

It was a long time before it finally fell silent. Lichen suddenly slapped the table and shouted: "You are so bold, in front of any place, there are people who know how to read and look at the plaque hanging at the door." This way is the official. Imperial seal five products. This is the Royal Taoist Temple. Who's the one you brought in? I, the viewer, don't remember how many people were there." The dust is full of voices. Everyone is just ordinary people, and they are not small in their courage to cheat and play tricks on weekdays. When you encounter the government, it's like a chicken. This saw that the dust slapped the table and said these words sharply, and he was suddenly frightened. They knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Lichen didn't look at them, but turned his gaze to the few maids in front of him, staring at them. This will make several maids also know that they are afraid, and their faces are pale and trembling. Got on his knees.

"Have any of you read the Tao Sutra?" Lichen asked.

No one responded. Obviously, there are no people who can't read and write. Not to mention reading the Sutra.

"Does anyone have a degree?" Lichen asked again.

Still no one answered, and obviously the degree was not so easy to take. In order to effectively control the source of taxes, the imperial court resolutely controlled the number of Taoist monks. After all, monks do not pay taxes. Don't talk about them. It's that Yunhua doesn't have a degree now. According to the imperial court, those who are not allowed to do so are "wild Taoists" and "wild monks" who are caught and will be imprisoned.

"Since none of you have read the Taoist scriptures, and you have not done it, maybe you have never worshiped the three Qings. Naturally, I am not a person in the Tao. A place of Taoist cultivation. What you used to eat. I don't care, but there are royal gifts in this temple. You cannot take it. Even if you take it, you can't use it. was sued by the government to lose his head. It's better to stay, and then you can go home,' said Chen, very seriously.

"Ah, Daoist, how can you drive us away", obviously these people eat and live well in the Taoist temple. Much more comfortable than in my hometown. And I have monthly money to take every month, so I naturally don't want to leave. The dust said in a deep voice; "Why can't I drive you away? When is this place? “

"I'm not leaving. If you have the ability, you will not leave if you kill me. I was invited by you, and if you can't drive me away, I won't leave. I've done things for your Taoist temple. Why drive us away? "Apparently the dust didn't scare them. Interests currently. The face is the most important thing. On the spot, several women sat on the ground and threw themselves.

Lichen's face turned pale. He was most annoyed by these ignorant shrews, and it was useless to reason with them, so he could only say in a deep voice, "It's okay not to go." I'll post tomorrow. Ask the government to come and get someone. Harass the royal Taoist temple and steal the things given by the emperor. It is indispensable to walk on the guillotine. “

A few shrews cried immediately. Everyone looked at the previous ten years, waiting for them to come up with an idea.

"True people, with compassion, can't take one or two. It is said that real people have great powers, but why can't they tolerate this old and weak woman and child, "A maid at the head was forced into a corner, plucked up courage but tried to hold the dust with mercy." If the dust drives them out, it will be unmerciful, and it will be cruel.

Lichen sneered: "We Taoists don't talk about compassion, we will be detached." Crossing oneself first and then crossing others. And what you are doing is clear to you. You are not my maids-in-waiting, and I can't do anything with you. Leave the things you want, and the people leave. I don't care. I think your deed of sale is still in the hands of Shanyang Zhixian. If I repair a book, it is not too much for you to be a wicked slave and deceive your master, and you will be beaten to death. "The dust said the word "killed" very seriously.

After listening to this, several maids did not dare to speak anymore. Seeing this, Lichen said loudly: "You go and pack up your things now, and you are not allowed to take the things in the view." Otherwise, it's time to count what is missing. The Free Government has come after you. I don't want to see you guys again before sunset, get out! ”

After finishing speaking, he left the main hall by himself. It doesn't matter what happens to those people. went straight back to the backyard to find Yunhua.

"Come, the baby eats a little, let's give some face." Lichen returned to Yunhua's room, Yunhua was chasing the little fox to eat plums, obviously the little fox was not interested in this, and he didn't pay attention to it. I heard the footsteps of dust, and I hurriedly called out. Yun Hua suddenly became depressed, and said with red eyes: "Master, I'm not very useless, the Taoist temple can't manage it well, and I can't even take care of a fox." ”

After hearing this, Lichen smiled and comforted, "You are still young, you can grow up." The fox was still laughing, and look, his eyes didn't even open. I can't eat yet, I can only drink goat's milk. After speaking, he took out a crockpot out of thin air and said, "Come, U Yunhua, can you feed the little fox milk?" Hearing this, Yunhua hurriedly hugged the crockpot, took a little with a water cup, and then stared at the little fox to drink milk. Lichen was about to leave, Yunhua suddenly turned back and said, "If they all leave, what will happen to the Taoist Temple." I can't do it alone."

Lichen smiled and said: "Fool, they are gone, we will recruit again, and you will be the senior sister by then."

"Isn't that the senior sister very breezy that she can make them do whatever they want?" Yunhua asked. Lichen smiled: "Of course, you are the senior sister, out of the master, in the Taoist temple, you are the biggest,"

The sun was gradually turning west, and everyone in the front yard finally reluctantly left one after another. It's just that a few of them are obviously not angry, and they didn't see the dust when they went out. He smacked hard at the door. Lichen smiled, and the clouds were light and clear. Don't care about them anymore. It's just that a simple phantom array was arranged on the side of the mountain road overnight, named "Asking Heart Road", if you want to become an official disciple of the mountain gate, you must cross the Asking Heart Road yourself. The other side of the mountain road is reserved for ordinary people. Then at the foot of the mountain, a sign was left on it, which read, "Ask the left, the rest of the people go right." Another notice was posted: "Xuanguang Guan recruits five miscellaneous servants and two pyrotechnics." Half a tael of silver per month. Room and board included. ”

Everything was ready, and I bought a dairy goat in the village under the mountain. Without spending a penny, they exchanged it for a peace charm, and both sides thought they had taken advantage.

As the days passed, the pyrotechnics were full the next day, and they were still acceptable. But there was not one of the disciples. Every day, there are many people who try to find their way, but none of them succeed. There is no rush to get rid of the dust. The immortal road is difficult, if you can't even break through the road of conscience. The future of the Immortal Dao can naturally be imagined. Every day, he reads Taoism, teaches Yunhua to read, and teaches the little fox to play treasure. Just wait for this day to feel the heart, and the time for me to marry Dan will come.
