Chapter 193: Goodbye to the Dead

Ten thousand recruitment notices and leaflets were printed, and the only two people who returned to the Yi Supervision Office had been sent out, and there was no one to guard the courtyard.

Yang Congyi's heart moved, and he was inexplicably excited, and then said loudly: "Please come in." ”

I only heard the sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and after a few breaths, a person asked softly outside the door: "I heard that you are looking for a Taoist here?" ”

As soon as he heard the word Taoist, Yang Congyi immediately got up to greet him outside the door, and said as he walked: "Exactly, we want to go to sea to find some Taoist masters to accompany us." ”

When I arrived at the door, I saw the blue-clothed Taoist in front of me with a frosty face, very thin, looking at the face, there seemed to be a little familiarity between the eyebrows, and then I couldn't remember who it looked like, so I smiled and said: "Dao Chief, please come in, it's cold outside, go to the house and say." ”

Outside the door, the Taoist held his hair in a bun, his clothes were thin, there were many patches on his clothes, and the Taoist shoes under his feet were also damaged, due to the cold, his face was slightly red, and he heard Yang Congyi's invitation, but he stood at the door and did not move, nor did he say a word.

Yang Congyi saw that the Taoist did not move, and said again: "Daoist, please come in." ”

"Master Yang, is that you?" The thin Taoist stared at Yang Congyi and suddenly spoke.

Yang Congyi was shocked, no wonder he was a little familiar, it turned out that they had really met, his brain was spinning and searching, but he couldn't remember who this Taoist in front of him was. Since the other party recognized him, he couldn't care about the embarrassment, and immediately smiled: "Exactly." When I saw the Taoist Leader just now, I felt a little familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had met the Taoist Chief? Dao Chief, let's talk again when we enter the house. ”

The look in the man's eyes moved, as if he was sad, he didn't say anything, only opened the package, took out an object from it, and stretched out his hand to hand it to Yang Congyi.

Looking at the strange behavior of the Taoist in front of him, Yang Congyi felt even more familiar, and the expression on his face became solemn.

When he saw the Taoist take out a dagger with his thin hand and hand it over, Yang Congyi immediately exclaimed: "Qingchen Dao Chief!" He immediately took two steps forward and came to the Taoist Chief's side.

"How did you become like this? What about Dao Chang Zheng? Qingchen Daoist came to visit alone like this, Yang Congyi suddenly felt uneasy, and had a very bad premonition.

At the beginning of Tianzhu Mountain, the two Dao Masters saved his life twice, thinking that this kindness would not have a chance to be repaid, and they didn't want the Qingchen Dao Masters to appear in front of him without warning. But the appearance of Qingchen Dao Chang at this time has really changed too much compared to two years ago, if it weren't for the fact that his eyebrows were somewhat similar, they were almost two completely different people.

As soon as Qingchen Dao Chang heard the question, tears immediately fell, and he couldn't hold it back anymore, and he couldn't say a word.

Seeing this situation, Yang Congyi knew that he was afraid that something bad would happen, and the Qingchen Daoist was sad and excited, and when he didn't ask, he immediately stopped asking, and said softly: "No matter what happens, come here, it's home, let's go into the house." ”

Hearing this, the Qingchen Dao Chief hesitated slightly, turned his back and raised his hand to wipe his tears, and then carried the package into the house.

Yang Congyi raised his hand and closed the door, and then said, "Dao Chief, sit down." ”

Qingchen Daoist then sat down and continued to weep silently.

Yang Congyi couldn't do it in this situation, so he poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over: "No matter what happens, the Taoist must cherish his body." Warm up with a cup of hot tea. ”

Qingchen Dao Chief bowed his head and wept silently, without saying a word.

Yang Congyi sat there, anxious and at a loss.

After a long while, Qingchen Dao Chang's mood gradually stabilized, and he finally stopped his tears, and then raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face.

Yang Congyi poured another cup of hot tea and put it in front of her, and said softly: "Dao Chief, drink a cup of tea to warm up your body." ”

Qingchen said in a long voice: "Thank you, donor." Slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea.

Yang Congyi said: "The Taoist chief will sit down for a while, and I will go out for a while." ”

Qingchen Daoist didn't speak, just held the teacup and nodded gently.

Yang Congyi got up and went out, closed the door with his hand, and then quickly walked towards the street.

Qingchen Daochang looks like this, I don't know what he has experienced, more than two years ago, his face was round and healthy, and today he is as thin as firewood, he is still wearing thin clothes on such a cold day, and Zheng Daochang is not around, which shows that the change is not small. At the beginning, he said that he wanted to visit the famous mountain, at least two years, and at most three or five years, and finally he would go to Hengshan to stay and open up the cave, and now the Taoist chief appeared alone in Lin'an, and I don't know what the reason is, but now is not the time to ask.

At the beginning of Tianzhu Mountain, the Taoist chief came to the rescue twice to help him tide over the difficulties, and this kindness could not be repaid. Looking at the appearance of the Taoist chief, there is nowhere to settle down in Lin'an, so it is better to calm down the Taoist first, and talk about other things later.

Yang Congyi walked into a restaurant quickly, and as soon as he entered the door, he didn't wait for the guy to approach, so he said to the guy: "Stir-fry two meat and one vegetarian, three side dishes, two servings of rice, a bowl of porridge, and take it away in a food box, be fast." ”

When the guy heard this, he immediately turned around and went to the kitchen to serve food.

The shopkeeper smiled: "Lord Yang, why are you eating so early today?" ”

Yang Congyi said with a smile: "Take advantage of the time to eat first, if you have something to do later, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat if you're busy." ”

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Lord Yang is busy with official business, and when he arrives for dinner in the future, let the guy deliver the meal to the adult, so as not to delay the adult's work." ”

Yang Congyi thanked him: "Don't bother, I didn't have a few steps to come out." When it comes to the meal, you are also busy, so don't neglect the customers who enter the store for me and delay the business. ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "It's not troublesome, it's just a matter of a few steps." That's it, and every day at noon and evening, the food will be delivered to the adults. ”

Since the shopkeeper said so, Yang Congyi couldn't shirk it anymore, so he said: "Then it's troublesome for the shopkeeper." I'll pay for three days' meals first, and if it's not enough, I'll make up for it another day. After saying that, he took out a tael of silver and put it on the counter.

The shopkeeper took the silver and said with a smile: "Every day at noon and three o'clock, the meal is delivered to the superintendent on time." I don't know what Lord Yang wants? ”

Yang Congyi said: "Three light side dishes, two meals are enough." ”

The shopkeeper said hello and recorded the request.

Yang Congyi sat down and waited.

It didn't take long for the guy to come out with a food box.

Yang Congyi took the food box and said, "Thank you." He walked quickly out of the restaurant.

When he returned to the supervision office, the chief of the dust cleaning road was still sitting quietly in the house.

Yang Congyi opened the food box and took out the dishes and chopsticks one by one and placed them on the table. After that, he took out a bowl of hot porridge separately and gently placed it in front of the Taoist chief.

"Dao Chief, it's not early, let's eat first, and settle down here after eating."

Qingchen Dao Chang said softly: "Thank you, donor." ”

Yang Congyi said with a smile: "Don't be so polite, I was able to survive when I was carefully cared for by the Taoist Elder in Tianzhu Mountain." Today you come to Lin'an, we meet again, this is also fate, just take this place as your home, there is a place for me to shelter from the wind and rain, and you will not be exposed to the wind and rain. Eat a bowl of porridge first to warm up your body and nourish your stomach. After that, he picked up the dishes and chopsticks and began to eat.

I haven't seen Yang Congyi for more than two years, and now I suddenly see you again, and the head of Qingchen Dao is somewhat restrained. When she saw Yang Congyi eating by herself, she slowly picked up the porridge and drank the hot porridge one bite at a time.

The hot porridge went down to the stomach, and the body suddenly warmed up.

I haven't eaten a full meal for a long time, and after drinking porridge and appetizing, I have a bowl of rice with the hot dishes on the table.

During the meal, the two were speechless, did not disturb each other, and concentrated on eating.

After eating, Qingchen Daoist suddenly felt a lot more energetic, and his thin face also had some light.

After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Yang Congyi still didn't ask about Qingchen's experience, thinking that he would wait for her to rest for a while and calm down a little.

Looking up at the appearance of the Taoist at this time, judging from the clothes and face, no one would have thought that she would be a female Taoist in her teens, and the years have left traces on her.

Thinking of the Taoist Chief's simple clothes in the past, but his pure and watery appearance, Yang Congyi felt uncomfortable for a while, what kind of suffering did he endure, and let the young Taoist become like this in two years?

The matter has come to this point, it is useless to think about it, it is imperative to let Qingchen Dao Chang calm down first. Now that there are few people and a vacant house, Yang Congyi found a clean and quiet side house and settled her.

Then he went to the kitchen to boil two pots of hot water and brought them into the Taoist chief's room, and found the autumn and winter clothes that he didn't wear for the time being, and asked the Taoist chief to change them.

Qingchen Dao has lived in the mountains for a long time, and he doesn't understand so many people's feelings and sophistication, and he doesn't have so many worries, so he immediately washed it in the room and changed Yang Congyi's clothes.

When she came out again, her appearance changed again, her face was clean, and her complexion was much better than before.

Qingchen Daoist didn't say a word about her experience, and Yang Congyi was not easy to ask, so in order to avoid the embarrassment of having nothing to say, he told her his experience in the past two years.

After the two separated on that day, Yang Congyi went to the incense burner peak, and talked until the present, during which he took more than 30 fugitives out of Tianzhu Mountain, and learned that the army recommended him to Lin'an to enter the martial arts. The Taoist only listened quietly and did not say a word to interrupt.

When Yang Congyi finished talking about his experience in detail, the sky gradually darkened.

The guy at the restaurant brought dinner on time, and Yang Congyi thanked himself.

"Dao Chief, eat, eat well and rest for a night, and take you to Lin'an City tomorrow."

Qingchen Dao Chief thanked softly: "Thank you, donor." ”

During the meal, the two of them ate separately and did not say a word.

However, after the meal, Qingchen Dao Chief took the initiative to speak: "Donor, you recruit Daoists to go to sea, I don't know if I meet your requirements?" ”

After hearing this, Yang Congyi immediately replied: "What will go to sea for the Hui Yi fleet, the imperial court has not yet decided, maybe it can go to sea this year, maybe it can't go to sea within the year." If the Taoist wants to go, he can naturally stay here with peace of mind, and when the time is determined, we can go to sea together. ”

Qingchen Dao Chang thanked again: "Thank you, donor." ”

Yang Congyi said with a smile: "There is a Taoist chief with me, I can't ask for it." It's just that the sea is bumpy, and I'm afraid I'm going to have to suffer. ”

Qingchen said, "Don't be afraid." After that, he stopped talking.

After the two drank another cup of tea, it was getting late, so they sent Qingchen Dao Chang back to the room and asked her to rest first.

Seeing Daoist Qingchen today, Yang Congyi was impetuous, looking at her suffering, but he didn't know what happened to her and Daoist Zheng, his heart was always at peace, and he was not in the mood to read and write, so he simply went to bed early.
