"Master, when we were in the Taoist temple before, we heard others say that the current master is a person named Qingyang, and he was also honored by them." This question has been holding back in Mingyue's heart for a long time, and now she finally has the opportunity to ask: "What the hell is going on?" Haven't you always been the Lord? The changes in the Taoist temple during this period of time are really too great, what happened in the end? ”

The old Taoist priest took a puff of dry smoke and said with a smile: "Originally, because the incense of our Taoist temple was difficult to continue, I asked Yang Fangshi for help." A few months ago, a group of crew came to the scene, saying that Yang Fangshi called to help shoot advertisements for free. Later, as they said, more and more people came to visit the Taoist temple, in addition to the aborigines in the vicinity, even the people in Yinan City began to know about our Taoist temple, and even many foreigners came to visit it, and the incense of the Taoist temple suddenly became prosperous. ”

Mingyue nodded as she listened, rebuilding the reputation of the Taoist temple in the past has always been Lichen's dream, and now the dream has finally come true, but now there seems to be a little accident.

Next to him, Jin Ruoxi walked to the edge of the bamboo forest a few meters away and squatted down, stretched out his hand to gently remove the soil, took off the hair card and dug out a freshly unearthed spring bamboo shoot, and said with a smile while patting the wrapped soil: "But no one thought that because the incense suddenly became prosperous, it directly attracted the attention of the official." After considering a number of reasons and consequences, the official directly took over the reconstruction and expansion of the Taoist temple, which not only made the Taoist temple more lively, but also improved the reputation of Yinan and created a certain economic cycle. ”

The old Taoist priest was stunned, and then he looked Jin Ruoxi up and down, as if he didn't believe that the beautiful little girl in front of him actually analyzed the matter with the Tao, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

"But there are pros and cons to everything, although the Taoist Taoist wants the Taoist temple to be prosperous, but in the heart it is just to maintain the daily expenses of the Taoist temple, and now the official is doing this, the incense is prosperous, but the entire Taoist temple is polluted by philistines and vulgarity, and the purpose of Taoist Qing Xiu is incompatible. Therefore, the head of the Dust Dao must have gone to the official to talk about the matter, but he was refused. And the official sent an unknown Qingyang Venerable, who took away the only remaining position in the hands of the Lichen Dao Chief, and the current Lichen Dao Chief is no different from an outsider. Jin Ruoxi put the spring bamboo shoots into a small bag she carried, and the 'Xinel' worth hundreds of thousands of dollars was used by her to hold a few yuan a pound of spring bamboo shoots, if the 'Xinel' supporters saw it, they might be angry directly.

Yang nodded at Zhi Tianxiu, shook his head and said: "The world is like this, once there is a benefit, he will do anything." I didn't think it through, but it didn't help. But don't worry, this matter started because of me, and I will solve it as soon as possible so that the Taoist temple can return to a normal situation. He understands Lichen's psychology very well, and there is no right or wrong in this matter, but for his own purposes, the official has turned this place of cultivation into an existence like a vegetable market, which is indeed a bit inappropriate.

"According to my speculation, this Qingyang Taoist priest should be the person designated by the government, so he will focus on the interests of the official in the handling of many things." Jin Ruoxi said: "For example, the basic condition that you can stay and enjoy fasting if you donate sesame oil money on weekdays must have become another fee system now, and it is definitely not cheap." Other paid items even include sandalwood, tea, resting places, and even homemade souvenirs from Taoist temples, such as bracelets and fake jade stones. ”

The old Taoist priest sighed and said, "Yang Fangshi doesn't have to blame himself, we didn't expect things to turn out like this." In fact, what bothers me the most is not these series of official charges, but the way Qingyang does things on weekdays. After a pause, he said, "During this time, our Taoist temple has added many new disciples, which is originally a good thing. But Qingyang relied on himself to become the master of the view, and he either beat or scolded these disciples, and if he didn't pay attention to it, it would cause him to be angry. And these disciples had to swallow their anger for the official salary, and if they were a little angry, they would be directly removed from him. Alas! In short, he has now become the emperor of the Taoist temple. ”

"Did you ask me if you wanted to be an emperor?" Yang Yi smiled coldly: "As a citizen of the Dragon Kingdom, I should do my best to maintain social harmony and stability. A scumbag like him, who maliciously undermines harmony and stability, has already violated the regulations I have set, and I will personally punish him. After a pause, he said: "In addition, since the construction of the Taoist temple has been completed, there is no need for the Taoist chief to be entangled in this regard. Isn't it true that preaching morality is the desire of the Taoist? Now that the Xueyi Mountain Taoist Temple is so famous, it can be regarded as half of the success. Next, you only need to control some of the atmosphere in the Taoist temple a little. ”

Lichen nodded and said, "Then thank you Yang Fangshi." He looked up at the sky and said, "You haven't had lunch yet, have you?" It just so happens that today I dug up some spring bamboo shoots, plus the wild vegetables I just picked, which will definitely make you feast. ”

Generally speaking, people in the city yearn for the food in the mountain villages, because the food in the mountain villages is basically green and organic food. Chickens, ducks and geese that have not eaten any feed, natural green food, and firewood cauldrons, the taste of many things is indeed not comparable to the food in the city.

Jin Ruoxi rarely eats this kind of food, she had heard Mingyue say it in her ear many times before she came, and this time she finally had the opportunity to taste it, so she was naturally very excited, and she was busy taking out a few small poor spring bamboo shoots in her 'Xinel' bag: "I still have it here!" ”

Kaoru has no experience in these things, and when she was training in the Wa Kingdom in the past, the so-called three meals a day were just to eat enough to maintain her strength, and the taste was basically the same to her. It wasn't until I recognized Ah Hu and stayed with Yang Yi, Jin Ruoxi, Mingyue and others for a long time that I slowly returned to a normal life, and finally gradually understood what food was and what was delicious. When he saw Jin Ruoxi take out the spring bamboo shoots, he couldn't help but say, "Great, let's dig a little more and bring it back after dinner, okay?" ”

"There is nothing in this bamboo forest, but there are a lot of bamboo shoots, and there are even bamboo sunflower and bamboo eggs!" The old Taoist priest smiled slightly: "Mingyue, it's not early, we haven't cooked together for a long time, do you want to be with the master?" ”

Mingyue said excitedly: "Great! Wait a minute, it's still the old rule, I light a fire, and the master assists in cooking! ”

Next to him, Yang Yi threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it, and said with a smile: "There is a chance to eat these pure natural things, and we don't have to rush for a while." Now that we've come here, why don't we go and 'enjoy' the formal food in the Taoist temple first? ”

Seeing Yang Yi's smile, Jin Ruoxi couldn't help but shudder. She knew very well that whenever Yang Yi showed such a smile, someone would definitely be unlucky.

After the expansion of Xueyi Mountain Taoist Temple, the original kitchen of only more than 10 square meters has now been changed to a large kitchen of hundreds of square meters, and the staff in the kitchen are also certified chefs specially recruited from Yinan City, driven by high salaries, so that they have used all their skills to present their own specialties to tourists, so that although tourists have spent a lot of money on fasting meals, but there are not too many complaints, and some of them even give a thumbs up to praise the chef's craftsmanship.

Yang Yiyi and his party turned back and came to the door of the Taoist temple, but this time there were more old Taoist priests leaving the dust. The previous few Taoist priests guarding the door were still there, and after seeing the Taoist priests leaving the dust, they exchanged glances to each other, and one of them hurriedly entered the Taoist temple, needless to say that they were all going to inform Qingyang.

"A few Fang Shi are good, Uncle Lichen is good!" The young man who was talking to Yang Yi before took the initiative to greet him and said, "Are a few Fang Shi going to ask for a sign now?" ”

At this moment, it is the time to have lunch, and the economic conditions are good and choose to enjoy the special food in the Taoist temple, and the conditions are slightly worse is to go to the square outside to go up and down the restaurant, at this moment there are basically no tourists in front of the main hall, but it seems a little quiet.

"It's lunchtime, so we're going to eat." Yang nodded Zhi Tianxiu, and said lazily: "But we are all more sincere people, hurry up and ask for a sign before eating, there is no problem, right?" ”

The young Taoist priest winked at the old Taoist priest and found that the latter didn't seem to understand his eyes, so he said, "Of course there is no problem. Wait a minute, our contemplator Qingyang Venerable will also come, and a few of you may be able to get a gift from Qingyang Venerable! ”

"Let's talk about it!" Yang Yi waved his hand and took the lead in walking towards the main hall, Jin Ruoxi and Ah Xun followed, Mingyue walked at the end with the old Taoist priest Lichen, the two chatted while walking, judging from their expressions, they seemed to be talking about some happy topic, and both of them had smiles on their faces.

"Senior brother, a few monks want to go to the incense and ask for a signature." The young Taoist priest said hello to the Taoist priest next to him, took a few steps forward and came to Yang Yi's side, and told him some rules and details of incense.

Commander Yang didn't mean to drink, and impatiently waved his hand to drive the young Taoist priest away, and walked into the main hall first.

There were no other travelers in the hall except for a few small Taoist priests who were cleaning, and they all stopped their work after seeing Yang Yi and the others come in. One of the little Taoist priests took a few sticks of incense and gave them to Yang Yi and the others respectively, and then brought a merit box and waited beside him.

Jin Ruoxi smiled coldly, stuffed a few dragon coins with a face value of one hundred into the merit box, and waved his hand to signal the little Taoist priest to get out of the way immediately.

A few hundred pieces of incense is considered a high consumption for the Taoist temples and temples in the entire Dragon Kingdom. And this little Taoist priest did not have any surprised and strange expression on his face, as if he had often seen this situation. According to Jin Ruoxi's intentions, he retreated and stopped disturbing them.

Yang Yi kicked the futon aside, took out a lighter and lit the incense, and casually inserted it into the incense burner full of burned sandalwood, and did not take the stick holder next to it to shake it, and went directly to the side to smoke. And then Jin Ruoxi, although he was also squatting on incense, but driven by curiosity, he picked up the stick holder and shook it a few times. With a crisp sound, a bamboo skewer fell out of the holder.
