"Dao Chief! Recently, the old woman I have always been restless, a few days ago, the old woman I dreamed at night that the old gentleman was too high, and said to let the old woman come to this fairy mountain land and meditate for a few days! I wonder if the Taoist can let the old woman get my wish!? After Xie Hong listened to Mrs. Chen's words, his brows tightened - if it were in ordinary days, Lao Junguan would definitely not refuse, the key is that there is a key person in Lao Junguan now. Do not have contact with outsiders.

"Ahh Mrs. Chen, to be honest, if it is on weekdays, it must be welcome, but recently, Xiaoguan is being built, and some houses are really dilapidated, so! ......" Mrs. Chen smiled:

"Dao Chief, monks pay attention to pure cultivation! Besides, the old woman just wanted to take advantage of a pure treasure to pray for myself and my children! ”

"This? ......" Old Madam Chen saw Xie Hong's embarrassed look.

"Dao Chief, the old woman has already said that I came here today mainly to be summoned by Lao Jun to come here to retreat in the Immortal Mountain! I will not disturb you. I also hope that the Tao will grow and be perfected. Xie Hong still had a look of embarrassment.

"In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people! Dao Chief, speaking of which, I still have some distant relatives with your Xie family after all, and I hope that Dao Chang can be accommodating! Seeing Mrs. Chen insisting like this, Xie Hong couldn't excuse himself.

"Old lady, the Taoist temple is simple, I hope that the old lady will not dislike it, and in addition, these people still hope that the old lady will not bring them in."

"That's nature." When Xie Hong settled Old Madam Chen, he called his cronies and disciples over:

"Lingxiu!"

"What does the master command?"

"Take good care of the 'one' in the Taoist temple, and don't let the 'one' have any contact with Mrs. Chen! Do you understand? ”

"Yes! Master! ”

"Go ahead!" After Lingxiu left, Daoist Xie Hong recalled the scene when Di Renjie was the commander of the Qilin Secret Guard to find him:

"Daoist Xie Hong!"

"Master Di!"

"Dao Chief! Have you heard about the Hangzhou enclosure case? Daoist Xie Hong nodded:

"My lord! I have heard something about it! ”

"Dao Chief! There is a small request below, I hope the Taoist will agree! ”

"Your Excellency, please speak!"

"I want to ask the Taoist chief to help take care of an orphan girl in Xia!"

"Don't worry, my lord, the poor road will definitely live up to the trust of my lord!"

"Also, this woman, I hope the Taoist chief won't let others know that she is here! Be sure to keep it a secret! ”

"Yes! Poor obedience! Daoist Xie Hong didn't ask why this orphan girl came to Laojunguan! Because, Daoist Xie Hong knows that the Qilin Secret Guard does things, and what should not be known must not be known. However, when the orphan girl came to Laojunguan, Daoist Xie Hong heard that this woman had an accent from the area of Hangzhou, south of the Yangtze River. And the long face is delicate, and there is a temperament that is different from the small jasper of the daughter of the family. This aroused the curiosity of Daoist Xie Hong, but the woman was silent, and after entering the Laojun Temple, she was just working. Others deliberately talked to her and inquired about this woman's life experience, but this woman was also silent and didn't say a word! Slowly, everyone named the woman Stuffy Girl! This made Xie Hong vaguely feel that this girl had a story. Later, the disciple of Xie Hong Dao Chang went to Chang'an one day to turn his fortune, and vaguely heard the Hangzhou enclosure case and Zhao King Li Chenglu's affair in Hangzhou, and came back to tell Xie Hong Dao Chang to listen, Xie Hong Dao Chang slowly felt that this stuffy girl must have something to do with this matter, so he ordered that the entire Taoist temple close the mountain gate and not leak half a sentence. For those who go up to the mountain to seek the Dharma, try to refuse. In this way, on the one hand, many people who came to inquire about the news were cut off, but the incense money of the Taoist temple decreased. Some Taoist disciples were a little dissatisfied in their hearts. Daoist Xie Hong knew it in his heart, but he didn't dare to confide half a word to those disciples. This time, if Mrs. Chen came to the temple to seek the Tao, if Daoist Xie Hong hadn't seen that he had so much money, he would not have let Mrs. Chen enter the Taoist temple. Mrs. Chen prayed to the statue of Lao Jun every day:

"Taishang Laojun is on top, I believe in the Queen's Day prayer, the letter of the woman's husband's family is Chen Shuda, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the letter of the girl's family since the return to the Tang Dynasty, the duty is to be loyal, never slack, just ask the Taishang Laojun to bless my family and the prince to live a long life, bless my four sons, and the official fortune is prosperous. Our Chen family, Changlong Baishi, Xinglong Wandai! Thank you for the Queen's Day! Then, he kowtowed respectfully a few times. After praying, Daoist Xie Hong led all the disciples to recite the Tao Te Ching for Mrs. Chen. Old Madam Chen's eyes kept looking around, looking at these Taoist priests and sisters, as if they were looking for something. And Daoist Xie Hong's eyes also turned with Old Madam Chen.

"Old Mrs. Chen, Taishang Laojun is on top, as the saying goes, sincerity is spirituality, in front of the gods, don't be half-hearted!" Old Madam Chen nodded, closed her eyes, and continued to pray. Mrs. Chen would go to the main hall of Lao Junguan every morning to pray, and the person who greeted Mrs. Chen in the guest room every morning must be Daoist Xie Hong. And waited by Mrs. Chen's side every day, until Mrs. Chen returned to the guest room, and Daoist Xie Hong would not leave. Old Madam Chen knew in her heart that Daoist Xie Hong was trying to prevent herself from finding out the news. The two are neither broken nor conflicted, so they are in a stalemate every day. Old Madam Chen still pretended to be nothing, but she was very generous to the Taoist priests and aunts who sent bath water and meals to Lao Junguan every day, and as long as she came, she would give a few taels of silver. Suddenly, Mrs. Chen's wisdom spread throughout the entire Laojun Temple. Ten days later, Mrs. Chen set off for home after a long period of trouble.

"Dao Chief, in the past ten days, thanks to the care of Dao Chief, I am very grateful to the old woman!"

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Mrs. Chen is kind and charitable, and Xiaoguan can welcome a distinguished guest like Mrs. Chen, which is the third honor of Xiaoguan! Mrs. Chen, if Xiaoguan is not well taken care of, please forgive Mrs. Chen! ”

"Where! Where! Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Dao Chief! Old woman, I take my leave. ”

"Madame, go slowly!" Watching Old Madam Chen board the carriage and leave, Daoist Xie Hong took a deep breath!

"Hmmm! The trouble is finally gone! "Old Madam Chen returned to the Jiangguo Mansion. Chen Shuda greeted him!

"Madam, let's go to Laojunguan, what news can I hear!"

"Husband! The concubine body is useless, I went to Laojunguan this time, and I didn't see the Zhen'er girl you said, but the concubine body felt that Daoist Xie Hong seemed to be hiding some secrets? After listening to Mrs. Chen's words, Chen Shuda thought for a while.

"According to what Mrs. said, Chen Zhen'er must be hiding in Lao Junguan! Madam, don't be sad, that Xie Hong is not something that the old man can deal with easily. Madame, let's wait! "A few months have passed, and Lao Junguan suddenly has a full view of filial piety, and the entire Taoist temple is a plain! It turned out that this day was the death day of Qihui, the head of Taoism in the country and the former head of Li Tang Guoshi. Daoist Xie Hong ordered that the entire Laojunguan should be all filial piety, and led most of the disciples to Louguan to chant for Qihui Daoist for 7749 days.

"Lingyun!"

"The apprentice is here!"

"As a teacher, lead all the disciples and your senior brother to Louguan! Here's the thing! It's up to you to act as an agent, remember, first, don't get into trouble, keep in mind the patriarch's family motto, and be low-key for the Taoist! Second, during the absence of the teacher, Lao Junguan must be strictly guarded, and no one is allowed to enter. Remember? ”

"Yes! Master's teachings! Remember! When Daoist Xie Hong heard his apprentice's promise, he shook off the dust and led the other disciples to leave Laojunguan and walk on foot in the direction of Louguan. Not long after Daoist Xie Hong left Laojunguan, Mrs. Chen's carriage came to the door of Laojunguan again.

"Ahh It turned out to be Mrs. Chen! Poor Dao Lingyun saluted the old lady, Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! ”

"Ahh It's the Lingyun Dao Chief! The old woman has seen the Taoist! May I ask if the Venerable Master Xie Hong can be in the view? ”

"Ahh Old lady! Today is the death day of the national teacher and the head of Taoism in the world, Qihui Daochang, and the family teacher led all the brothers and sisters to Louguan to pray for Qihui Taoist and chant scriptures. Therefore, it is not in view! Please forgive me, old lady! "Old Madam Chen secretly said in her heart: 'I know if I am not here, if I am here, I will not come!' Just now, the Jiangguo Mansion arranged for the eyeliner near the Laojunguan to return to the Jiangguo Mansion to report to the Jiangguo Mansion, saying that the whole view of the Laojunguan was full of white sails. All Taoist priests are dressed in plain clothes. Mrs. Chen was still a little puzzled. Jiang Guogong Chen Shuda explained to Mrs. Chen that because this day was the death day of the national teacher, the head of Taoism in the world, and the head of Qihui Daoist, Qihui Daoist helped Li Yuan win the world and played a stable role in Li Jiancheng's crown prince, so he was deeply favored and valued by Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng of two generations of emperors. Therefore, after the death of Qihui Daoist, Li Jiancheng issued an order to order the world's Taoist priests to send the host and outstanding disciples of Qihui Daoist to gather in Louguan on the day of Qihui's death. Hearing the news, Old Madam Chen immediately realized that Daoist Xie Hong must not be in the view. So he immediately took the servant to the Laojun Temple again.

"Ahh That's it! But, the trail is long! You see, I came here, I didn't drink a sip of tea, I didn't sit or do it, and this old gentleman is also some distance from Chang'an, and the old body also brought so much property, in case I meet bad people along the way, wouldn't it hurt the old body's life, little master, the monks are merciful, it's better to let the old body live first, and then set off tomorrow! ”

"This ......" Lingyun looked embarrassed! Old Madam Chen secretly handed a gold ingot to Lingyun Dao Chief.

"Dao Chief! Wanwang Road is a long and convenient trip! "Lingyun Dao Elder weighed the gold ingots in his hand - 'This is ten taels! You can buy a lot of good land and build a big house. Daoist Lingyun was about to agree, but a small Taoist priest next to him spoke out and said:

"Senior brother! The master has an order! Don't let outsiders in! "Lingyun Dao Leader felt as if his authority had been challenged.

"When the master left, he said that I am in charge of all things in Lao Junguan! Besides, Lao Junguan has so many people, they all have to dress and eat! When Daoist Lingyun said this, the little Taoist priest was silent.

"Open the door and welcome your guests!"
