Chapter Forty-Nine: The Finger Is Pointed At
It's just that Luo Shuangyi didn't expect that as soon as his voice fell, he heard the Taoist chief behind him snort coldly, shook off the dust in his hand, and scolded: "Does the girl think that the heavens have no eyes, or is she belittling my cultivation!" I pray for you in Mocheng, I don't know how much it will take, collect some money and food, but it is just a tribute to the heavens, I hope the city can get better protection! ”
After that, he glanced at Luo Shuangyi coldly: "This girl doesn't believe in the virtues of heaven, and from now on, she is naturally a big traitor, and the heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman, so I'll go!" ”
With that, he turned around and made the appearance that he was leaving.
"Hey, don't go, Dao Chief, if you want to go, she should go! Why do you say that people are liars when they receive some money and food, and if you didn't sell us medicine before, maybe you are also a liar! ”
"yes, yes, you just can't see the good of us all. How can this Dao Elder Immortal Wind Dao Bone be compared with the last time? I see you've been bitten by a snake once, and you look like a snake in everything, right? ”
The people next to him had already been deceived by this person who claimed to be the Taoist chief, and felt that this Taoist chief was something they had asked for with great difficulty, how could they let it go so easily?
So they turned around and stopped the Taoist chief, and then began to sarcastically and blame Luo Shuangyi, even the mother-in-law who was pulled by Luo Shuangyi pushed her hand away, and spit on her face full of displeasure: "Girl, be careful yourself, see who is a liar, don't pull me!" I am sincere and sincere like God praying for blessings, not a great traitor! ”
Saying this, he clasped his hands together, looked at the heavens and muttered, while rushing to the Taoist to hurry up and give the money, Luo Shuangyi, who was watching, sighed in his heart, feudal society and feudal thinking kill people!
"Well, then, since we have to beg the gods for the blessing of the gods, and the wind and rain are good, each of us should contribute money and efforts, and how about we pay according to the amount of land each family has in the city? What do you think? ”
Luo Shuangyi saw that person pretending to be a villager from Mocheng, and secretly gave the Taoist chief a look, and the Taoist chief pretended to mutter: "This is okay, it is in line with heavenly principles." ”
"Then our family's field is not enough food, I still have to go back and get some."
As he spoke, the man turned his head and led the people back to get money and food.
"Which one are you from?"
Seeing Luo Shuangyi standing in place and looking at himself fixedly, the Taoist chief felt a little weak in his heart, and couldn't help but ask.
"Dao Chief, I know her, she is the Luo family, a big family in the city, almost half of the fields in this Mocheng belong to their family's name, it stands to reason that their family should pay the most."
But Luo Shuangyi had already seen through the trick of the so-called Taoist priest, so he naturally didn't believe it, and he clearly didn't want to make this unjust money, so it can be seen that everyone is making money, and he is not good at being tough, so he turned his head and glanced at the Taoist chief: "This might as well be the Taoist to care, my Luo family's field has already found a more cultivated Taoist leader, and asked for greater divine protection, and there is no need for the Taoist chief to pray." ”
"You ......"
The chief listened to Luo Shuangyi's mocking words, and was angry for a while, but he couldn't find any suitable reason to refute it, everyone heard this, and only felt that they had made money, but the Luo family didn't come out, and the boss in his heart was uncomfortable, and he wanted to scold but couldn't scold, so he had to stare coldly at the back of Luo Shuangyi leaving, and muttered quietly behind his back.
Not long after Luo Shuangyi returned home, Luo Yingxue sent someone to inquire about the whole story, and when she heard that she had a big conflict with the Taoist leader, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Midsummer, the east wind we are waiting for is coming." ”
Midsummer blinked: "Miss, how do you say this?" ”
"You go and find that Taoist priest, and then go to my account to pay 30 taels of silver, and don't worry about the rest."
"Luo Shuangyi, Luo Shuangyi, this is your own rival, you can't complain about me."
This Taoist priest has such a great influence in the city, and he has a little grudge against Luo Shuangyi, as long as she gives a little money now, it is easy to buy people, and when the time comes, it will be very easy to put a big rebellious charge on her through his mouth!
After Luo Shuangyi died...... A hint of fierceness flashed in Luo Yingxue's eyes, and if she found someone to deal with this Taoist priest, Qingzhu would be able to come in handy.
At that time, Qingzhu will be on the throne, and her position in the Luo family will really be stable!
"I heard that Luo Shuangyi ran into you in ignorance, my sister is not successful enough to lose, it has always been like this, don't take it to heart."
Seeing that midsummer led the Taoist chief in, Luo Yingxue got up as soon as possible, picked up the money bag in front of her, and stepped forward and put it in the hand of the Taoist master.
"Miss Luo is indeed more knowledgeable than your sister, but what does that mean?"
The chief's eyes lit up slightly when he saw the money bag, but he pushed it back the next second.
Luo Yingxue smiled when she saw this, and welcomed him to the upper seat to sit: "Don't misunderstand, this is to apologize to my sister to God, I have also heard her remarks today, it is indeed a big rebellion, I still have an eighty-year-old grandmother at home, I am only afraid that because she collided with my grandmother, I will ask the Taoist chief." ”
Seeing the discord between the two sisters of the Luo family, and seeing that Luo Yingxue was so attentive, he didn't accept it for nothing, so he reluctantly took the money.
"Dao Chief doesn't know, I came to you this time for our Luo family. Unlike what Luo Shuangyi said, the Luo family has never invited immortals, and the Luo family's land has not been blessed, although I want to contribute some money for the Luo family, but the finances in the family are all controlled in the hands of my aunt, I also have more than enough strength and insufficient strength, if I preside over the feed, I will persuade my grandmother to pay double the money and pray for a good harvest. ”
When the old man heard this, he couldn't stop nodding his head, and while expressing his approval, there was a few hints of desire in his eyes, if the Luo family could pay the money, it would not be a small amount.
When Luo Yingxue saw him like this, she knew that this person could be wooed, so she got straight to the point: "I heard the Taoist chief say, my sister was born to be a great traitor, and if the Luo family falls into her hands in the future, it will simply destroy the courtyard!" Dao Chief, it doesn't matter what sins I have committed, please help our Luo family! ”
"Miss Naluo, how do you want me to help?"
When the Taoist priest heard her say this, his resentment towards Luo Shuangyi for exposing him on the street also rose, and he turned his head and asked with some understanding.
"All you need to do is ...... This is a big deal to save our Luofu family! After the deed is done, there will be great thanks! ”
After Luo Yingxue whispered, the Dao Chang glanced at her, then clapped his hands and said a good word.
In the evening of the next day, Luo Shuangyi looked at the mottled dragon scale clouds in the sky, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly: "It seems that it is going to rain this day." ”
Before the words fell, I saw Luo Yingxue walking out of the door, shouting to the midsummer behind her: "You hurry up, if it's a little later, you won't be able to catch up with the Taoist begging rain." ”
Now begging for rain?
Luo Shuangyi sneered, it was clear that she had seen the dragon scale cloud and knew that it would rain, she wanted to see what tricks he had to fool people.
When she arrived, the Taoist priest had climbed the platform early, holding his own stick in one hand and a stack of charms in the other hand that he didn't know what he had drawn, and he was still chanting words in his mouth.
After a while, the sky gradually darkened, and some people around him began to shout in surprise: "There are so many clouds, it's dark, it's really going to rain, that's really a fairy Taoist!" ”
Luo Yingxue, who was beside her, turned her head to look at Luo Shuangyi, who looked indifferently and even a little disdainful, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Under the Dao Chief's several actions, the rain really fell down, and those who were still a little suspicious of the Dao Elder before also cast their eyes of surprise and reverence.
There are even people who kneel directly on the ground and constantly kowtow in his direction to show their piety.
Luo Shuangyi raised his hand to take a little rain, looked up at the sky slightly, frowned, knowing that this rain would not be too big, this Taoist priest just knew a little bit of meteorology and borrowed a little bit of heavenly potential, so regardless of whether the people around him knelt down or not, he still looked at the Taoist chief on the stage standing straight, his eyes were indifferent, and he was unmoved.
Sure enough, after a while, the light rain stopped, and the sky began to clear.
Just as Luo Shuangyi was about to turn around and walk back, the Taoist priest who was originally standing on the high platform suddenly knelt on his knees and cried towards the sky, which made the people below, including Luo Shuangyi, have a little doubt.
"Dao Chief, what's wrong with you?"
"Yes, Dao Chief, why doesn't it rain this time, we can't just have such a little rain in our field, this crop can't be fed......"
Seeing that the people below began to discuss and ask, the Taoist chief turned his eyes below and cried: "As soon as I clear the way and ask for rain, there has never been a time when I should not ask for it!" But I didn't expect that this time, I would lose at the hands of such a woman, I'm sorry for everyone, and I have wasted so many years of practice! ”
Although this Taoist priest didn't say it directly, his eyes fell directly on Luo Shuangyi at the end, which made everyone turn their heads to look behind, and even Luo Shuangyi herself didn't expect that she was just coming to see the situation, and she had to carry such a big black cauldron.
"What do you mean by that?"
Luo Shuangyi frowned, extremely disgusted by this.
Seeing that everyone looked at Luo Shuangyi's face with a little annoyance, the Taoist priest was secretly proud in his heart, but on the surface, he burst into tears, holding his own sign to show the people below.
"I used the charm sacrifice method just now, and it didn't work several times, but the stick caught fire, this is the will of God! It is because this woman corrupts human morality, does not respect the will of heaven, and said such rebellious words to heaven before, so she has affected the entire Mocheng! ”
Seeing that the more he spoke, the more strange and annoyed everyone looked at Luo Shuangyi's gaze, he felt that his goal had almost been achieved, and finally stood up and said: "If you want Mocheng to be saved, you must get rid of the disaster, you must use this woman to sacrifice to the sky, God is willing to rain down a lot of water to save the dawn people of my Mocheng, otherwise there will be a three-year drought, and the people will not be able to live, it will be me...... There's nothing you can do! ”
He attributed all the failure of praying for Yunyu to Luo Shuangyi, and pointed the finger at the woman below.
