Two hundred and forty-nine, the city of Caohan

Fan pulled a palm-sized locket out of his bosom, and when he opened it, it revealed a pearl the size of a thumb knuckle inside.

He presented the pearl box to Yun Daosheng, "A small thank you gift, not a tribute, please accept it." ”

Yun Daosheng waved his hand, "Saving people from danger is the doctrine of the Heavenly Master's Dao. This is what the poor Dao should do, and I can't accept your gift because of it. ”

Invite Yu didn't want to ask Yun Daosheng anymore at this time, why didn't he accept the gift again. Anyway, Yun Daosheng will definitely find a new reason.

Fan turned his head and said with emotion, "I burned incense for the Buddha for so many years in vain, but in the end, it was the Taoist who saved my life." ”

Yun Daosheng said with a smile, "Buddhism and Taoism are both to persuade people to be good. Although the beliefs are different, they are different from each other. Fan doesn't need to worry too much, you must know that good causes bear good results, and if you take us in with the caravan, I am destined to help you save the day. ”

Fan bowed his head solemnly to Yun Daosheng three more times, "I, Fan Kong, am willing to take refuge in the Taoist Sect today, offer the old man, and the incense will never be interrupted at four o'clock." ”

Yun Daosheng smiled and stroked the top of Fan Kong's head, and sang the Dharma horn, "Immortal Dao Guisheng, no measure of people." Please bless my disciples, there will be no disasters at four o'clock, and there will be celebrations on eight festivals. ”

When Fan Kong heard this, he kowtowed again, and he officially became a believer in the Heavenly Master's Dao.

At this time, the villagers had already learned from the accounts of the caravan people how Yun Daosheng had saved their lives.

When Yun Daosheng asked Li Zheng to distribute the boiled ginger soup to the caravan everyone, everyone admired Yun Daosheng's supernatural powers so much that they fell to the ground.

Li Chang said with admiration, "I thought that the Dao Chief's immortal wind and Dao bones turned out to be a person who had attained the Dao. I also ask the Taoist to pray for us, and we are willing to believe in the Taoist from now on. ”

Watching a room of people kowtowing and bowing to Yun Daosheng, they were scrambling to join the Heavenly Master Dao. Tan invited the rain to marvel...... Yun Daosheng is really a good material for natural preaching.

She whispered to Zimo, "How do I think that this northbound preaching, without me, he can do a good job." ”

Zimo also joked about inviting Yu Dao, "I'm afraid that the master sent you to be a guard." ”

Invite Yu pouted, "I will never provoke Uncle Xiao in the future, don't look at him all the time smiling, pleasant, apprentices can teach so well, he himself may not know how deep the bottom is." It's a smiling tiger! ”

Zimo held back a smile, stretched out his hand and nodded at Invite Yu's head, "Senior brother just stole your limelight, and you just said this behind your back." Beware that Uncle Xiao will really come to trouble you in the future. ”

Invite Yu didn't care and said, "When I become the owner of the Walker Building, the master will have to listen to me, let alone the little uncle." ”

Zimo was a little stunned, "I wish it could always be like now, with someone in front of me......"

Invite Yu was silent, she knew that Zimo just wanted to live peacefully, but unfortunately, Heaven did not allow it......

Invite Yu listened to Yun Daosheng while asking the villagers about the situation in Caohan City.

Only then did I know that this place is rich in medicinal materials, and there are many codonopsis, angelica, bupleurum, and rhubarb growing on the mountain. The quality is excellent. Occasionally, you can even find cordyceps.

The people in the village relied on the mountains to eat the mountains, collected medicinal herbs to dry, and sent them to Caohan City, and there would be caravans from other countries to exchange them.

Fan Kong's eyes lit up when he heard this. This time, they brought the products of the Xia Dynasty to exchange for medicinal materials. Before, they all went to Caohan City to exchange with the merchants there, but now they found this medicine collection village by mistake.

Even if the materials exchanged for the villagers are added by 10%, they are still much cheaper than the shops in the city. This time it was really a blessing for Yun Daosheng.

When the villagers heard that Fan Kong wanted to exchange medicinal materials directly with them, they were also very happy! Several families took out the snow pheasants, forest musk deer, and salamanders caught in the mountain streams to entertain the caravans.

Everyone was talking and laughing, as if the dim and rainy day outside could not affect their pleasure at the moment.

Wait until the next day, when the weather clears. The people of the caravan collected the medicinal herbs and planned to enter the city of Caohan to exchange for some other things, and then return to Great Xia.

A group of people said goodbye to the villagers early and went on the road. Halfway through, I spent some time cleaning up the dirt and rocks that had been stuck on the road during yesterday's landslide. As a result, it was not until mid-afternoon that he entered the city of Zaohan.

As soon as he entered the city, Invite Yu was startled by the bustle inside. I saw that the city was lit up everywhere, and the people were all dressed in red and green with joy.

Invite Yu wondered, wasn't Xi Qin fighting with Bei Liang? Why is there no sense of urgency in this city?

"Isn't there anything happy about it?"

Fan Kong patted his head, "Look at my memory." I actually forgot about such a big thing. Let's catch up with the summer festival of Xiqin! ”

Invite Yu looked at Yun Daosheng blankly, and Yun Daosheng explained to her, "The Summer Festival is a Buddhist fasting for three months. During this time, ordinary novices are required to confess their sins to the monks in the monastery. The prayers are then recited in the monastery during the day and candles are held at night. ”

Fan Kong said with a smile, "I didn't expect Yun Dao Chang to be so familiar with Buddhist things. You're right, these three months, the city will be very lively. The people would give all kinds of offerings to the monks, and some would even be ordained for three months to eat and fast with the monks. ”

He pointed to the east side of the city again, "But this year, everyone should not be 'sitting in the summer' in the monastery. Instead, he went to the Bingling Temple grottoes that the king of Western Qin had just ordered to be dug by the blazing pan. It's not every year! ”

Hearing this, Invite Yu looked at Yun Daosheng again, "Where are we going?" ”

Yun Daosheng nodded, "That's right." Bingling Temple is located between the three cities of Western Qin, Yuanchuan, Jincheng and Caohan, and is only a few dozen miles away from Jincheng and Caohan, and the entire temple is supported by the beggar clan and the officials of Western Qin. ”

Invite Yu frowned, the king of Western Qin ordered the construction of grottoes, and the Buddhist temple had the entire Western Qin court and royal family as backers. In this case, if you want to promote Taoism at other people's festivals, isn't this a deliberate slap in the face?

Even if those monks didn't care, could the Western Qin court let them go? Invite Yu now feels that Zimo is right, he was definitely sent to be a guard for Yun Daosheng!

Otherwise, with Yun Daosheng's kung fu, I am afraid that he will be torn apart before he leaves Xiqin.

Fan Kong said regretfully, "We have to go to Linyao first and then return to Tongwan City, we are not in the same direction as Bingling Temple, I am afraid that we will not be able to walk with the Taoist Elder anymore." If he comes to Great Xia one day, he will definitely come to Tongwan City to find me. You can ask any pharmacy and medical hall to find me. ”

Yun Daosheng smiled and promised that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely visit Fan Kong. The two sides said goodbye.

Tan invited rain and the others continued to walk east, but they didn't take two steps before they found a small tail behind them.

Yun Daosheng asked gently, "Gai Wu, aren't you going to your relative's house in Caohan City?" Why are you still following us? ”

Gai Wu replied with a cold face, "My relatives believe in Buddhism, so they must have gone to Bingling Temple." I'm going to look for him there. ”

Yun Daosheng nodded, "In this case, go with us." ”
