"Xiangyun Temple!" Deng Yu said.

"Xiangyun Temple? If you are good, what do you do when you go to the Taoist temple? Liu Xiu asked puzzled.

"Have you forgotten what day it is?"

"What holiday?" Liu Xiu was still at a loss.

"Today is October 15th, the next Yuan Festival! Xiangyunguan will be a dojo, doesn't the lord want to go to see the excitement? Deng Yu asked with a smile.

Liu Xiu was not interested, and was about to shake his head to refuse, Yan Guang said: "It's better to go to the Taoist temple to pray for blessings than to stay at home all day!" ”

Deng Yu nodded again and again, looked at the book in Liu Xiu's hand, and said: "Go out to breathe, relax, change your thinking, maybe some problems that you can't figure out now will be solved." ”

Liu Xiu pondered for a moment, smiled leisurely, put down the book in his hand, stood up lazily, and said, "Okay! Let's go for a visit to the Taoist temple! ”

Zhu You and Gai Yan were not in the mansion, the two of them went out for a stroll early in the morning, and Deng Chen was not there, and the matter of raising supplies was enough for him to be busy, and he was almost away from home all day.

Liu Xiu, Deng Yu and Yan Guang changed their clothes, left Deng's mansion, and went to Xiangyunguan in the suburbs.

Xiangyun Temple is the largest Taoist temple in Xinye County, the incense is very prosperous, today is the Xia Yuan Festival, the Taoist temple does the dojo again, go to pray for blessings, worship, see the lively people more.

According to the tradition of the Xia Yuan Festival, the people will grind the glutinous rice into flour and make small rice balls with vegetable filling, which will be placed at the door of the house for fasting.

However, now there is a famine, each family does not have much food, it is not realistic to put the small rice ball at the door of the house to fast, it is estimated that the day can not be sacrificed, it will be sacrificed into the stomach of the homeless, many people are taking the small rice ball to the Taoist temple, fasting in the Taoist temple.

On the road, pedestrians were bustling, and the roadside was crowded with small vendors, and in Liu Xiu's impression, Xinye had not been so lively for a long time.

Even if you haven't been to Xiangyunguan before, it doesn't matter if you don't know the road, just follow the flow of people.

After walking on the street for a while, Liu Xiu felt a lot more relaxed, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.

Deng Yu and Yan Guang looked at each other and smiled, the former stabbed Liu Xiu with his elbow and said, "Lord, it's right that Ziling and I pulled you out to relax, right?" ”

Liu Xiu looked at the two friends beside him and said with a smile: "Thank you." ”

Xiangyun Temple is located halfway up Xiangyun Mountain, and the name of the Taoist temple is also derived from the name of the mountain.

At the foot of Xiangyun Mountain, there are more tourists here, and there is a surge of people as far as the eye can see, but if you look closely, there are more beggars standing on the side of the road than pedestrians on the road.

Most of the beggars are displaced and hungry, men and women, old and young, all with yellow faces and thin muscles, and their clothes are in tatters. Some young people and children simply put grass in their back collars, knelt on the side of the road, and voluntarily sold themselves into slavery. Some of the older ones didn't even have the opportunity to sell themselves into slavery, so they could only look at the people on the road, their eyes full of anticipation and longing, hoping to get it

A bite to eat in people's hands. Seeing this scene, Liu Xiu couldn't help but sigh lightly, and said quietly: "The new reckless court is very harmful to the common people!" "Wang Mang introduced a series of new policies, each of which seems to be very good, such as equal division of land, abolition of slaves, etc., but in actual operation, it is impossible to do it, powerful people

With the large-scale annexation of land, a large number of peasants have no land to plant, they are displaced, and they cannot survive without selling themselves into slavery.

This situation also made Deng Yu and Yan Guang deeply touched, and the two sighed together, Yan Guang said: "It's really difficult to go against the sky for a long time!" ”

They followed the steps all the way to the Taoist temple halfway up the mountain.

There are so many beggars here that it's almost impossible to walk.

It took a lot of effort for Liu Xiu and the others to squeeze into the Taoist temple. When entering the Taoist temple, you naturally have to put incense, and this incense cannot be brought by yourself, you must buy it from the hands of the Taoist temple.

Even the cheapest and finest incense was sold for a hundred dollars. Liu Xiu didn't want to buy it, Deng Yu smiled disapprerovingly, took out three hundred yuan, bought three incense sticks, and gave one to Liu Xiu and Yan Guang each.

The next Yuan Festival worships the three officials. The three officials of Taoism are the heavenly officials, the earth officials, and the water officials, the heavenly officials give blessings, the earth officials forgive sins, and the water officials relieve misfortunes.

In the incense burner in front of the Taoist temple, it has already been filled with incense, it is estimated that today's dojo will be done, and Xiangyun sightseeing is to collect incense money to have hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Soon after Liu Xiu and the three arrived at Xiangyun Temple, the dojo officially began. The Taoist priests, dressed in Taoist robes, rushed out of the main hall and went to the square outside, and began to worship the three officials.

Liu Xiu only glanced at it twice, then he was not interested, withdrew from the crowd, and stood in the shade at the base of the wall to enjoy the shade. He accepted Taoist ideas, but not Taoist ghosts and gods.

If the sacrifice of the three officials was really useful, it would not let the most immoral and brazen people live in the temples, but let the most helpless and powerless people suffer disasters, displacement, and starvation.

Maybe in the dark, the operation of heaven and earth really has its laws, that is, the way of heaven, but the way of heaven will not come to people's heads for no reason, and in the end, it is still necessary to rely on manpower to do the way of heaven!

Sacrificing to the heavens and the earth is not as real as sacrificing people.

The dojo is a long time, and it doesn't end in a while. Seeing the Taoist priests wearing thick Taoist robes and being exposed to the scorching sun, even if they were sweating hot, but the French style was still done at a glance, Liu Xiu also admired the Taoist priests' professionalism.

Just when Liu Xiu was leisurely enjoying the coolness, a voice suddenly came from beside him: "I worship the three officials every year, and every year there is a famine, starving to death, and I don't know what is the use of worshipping the three officials?" ”

Liu Xiu turned his head to take a look, happy, and saw Jiu'er standing beside him at some point, tiptoeing, stretching his neck to look at the center of the square. He smiled and asked, "You girl, when did you come here?" ”

"Just now." Jiu'er looked curiously at the French style in the crowd, and said without turning her head. No matter how much she looked down on the French style of worshipping the three officials, she was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl after all, and she was happy to watch the excitement.

Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, what are you busy with?" ”

"Wandering! Now I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and I can wander around when I have time! Speaking of this, Jiu'er finally retracted her gaze and smiled at Liu Xiu, revealing two rows of small white teeth.

Liu Xiu was amused by her and asked, "Have you spent all the money you gave last time?" ”

Jiu'er said, "There are still some left!" You don't think I'm here to ask you for money, do you? ”

Liu Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Even if you come to ask for money, it's a matter of course." "Jiu'er does things for him, recognizes him as the lord, and as the lord, it is natural and natural to let his subordinates be fed and clothed.

Jiu'er bared his teeth and smiled, and said in a brisk tone: "When the money is spent, I will come to you." After a pause, she suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, right now, the Lord Justice has a good opportunity to save the beauty of a hero." ”

"Huh?" Liu Xiu looked at her puzzled.

Jiu'er thief smiled: "When I came, I saw that the young lady of the Yin family was entangled by many beggars. ”

Liu Xiu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Where is it?" ”

"It's at the foot of the mountain!"

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Liu Xiu complained, and walked outside the Taoist temple. Jiu'er followed him and said, "You didn't ask me!" ”

Liu Xiu glanced at her helplessly and said, "If there is something important in the future, you have to tell me as soon as possible!" ”

Jiu'er asked, "What is the important thing?" ”

"It's just ......" She really stopped Liu Xiu when she said this, what is important and what is not important, this thing is really difficult to explain specifically.

He waved his hand to Jiu'er and said, "Forget it, you can comprehend it yourself!" By the way, don't follow me, Zhonghua and Ziling are inside, you tell them, I'll wait for them at the bottom of the mountain! ”

"Oh!" Jiu'er looked at Liu Xiu's back as he left in a hurry, and stuck out her tongue at him.

Liu Xiu hurried all the way, followed the long steps, and ran all the way down the mountain.

When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he raised his eyes, and sure enough, there was a large group of people nearby, most of them were homeless beggars, and in the crowd, there was a lot of noise, and he couldn't hear what was arguing clearly.

He leaned sideways, trying to separate the crowd and squeezed in from the outside.

In the center of the crowd was a carriage, and around the carriage stood seven or eight big men in the shape of a biao, these big men, Liu Xiu knew a few, all of them were the guards of the Yin family. The leader is named Yin Ting, and his family has been a domestic servant in the underworld for several generations.

I saw Yin Ting looking around at the crowd, his face was sinking like water, and he shouted: "I have told you many times, this is the carriage of the Yin family, and the lady of the Yin family is sitting in the car, and there is no food at all!" ”

"Don't listen to him!" In the crowd, a medium-sized homeless person shouted loudly: "The Yin family has such a big family business, doesn't Xia Yuan come to sacrifice the three officials?" The car must be filled with food! ”

Hearing his words, the eyes of hundreds of homeless people and beggars present showed greed, such a cart of food, as long as they can grab a pack, it is enough for themselves and their whole family to eat for several days!

"The Yin family is rich and unkind, and would rather sacrifice a cart of food to the three officials than give us a little, don't talk to them, let's grab it!" In the crowd, another thin man shouted.

Someone took the lead, and the homeless people and beggars who were already hungry and about to lose their minds responded one after another, and people said in a big way: "Yes! Grab all the food in the car! ”

"We are all dying of hunger, and the Yin family still takes a cart of food to sacrifice to the three officials, which is extremely hateful!"

The people shouted as they approached the carriage step by step. Yin Ting looked around at the people around him, pulled out the sword under his ribs, and shouted in a deep voice: "I think which of you dares to go forward again?" ”

As he showed his weapons, the rest of the guards also drew their swords and glared at the crowd around them. Seeing that the Yin family showed their heads, people were afraid, and their constant approach to the footsteps stopped.

At this moment, a man in the crowd rushed out regardless of it, holding a stone in his hand, and went straight to the Yin Pavilion.

Yin Ting realized the danger, hurriedly dodged to the side, let go of the stone thrown by the other party, and then, he returned with a sword.

His sword has mercy on his subordinates, and the speed of the sword is not very fast, the main purpose is to force the other party back.

Unexpectedly, the big man just couldn't dodge, and was cut through his chest by this sword, and fell on his back, bleeding profusely from his chest.

Seeing this, everyone present was dumbfounded. Two big men ran out and dragged the injured man back again and again, while screaming: "The Yin family has killed someone!" The Yin family is murderous! Don't be polite to the Yin family, let's grab it together! ”
