Chapter 65 It is impossible to work part-time
"It turns out that you are the ninth uncle, you have been looking up for a long time."
After seeing the handwritten letter from the four-eyed Taoist, the sturdy man also showed a smile and arched his hand: "I am the security captain of Silent Village, just call me Ah Hao." ”
"Who is this?"
"This is my junior brother Ye Chen, and I am also here to deal with horse thieves together."
"Thank you two Dao Masters for your help."
Ah Hao nodded, and did not show contempt because of Ye Chen's age, but looked up at the sky: "The two of you have come from a long way, and you haven't eaten yet, why don't you make the east at noon today, and invite the two of you to have two drinks at the inn?" ”
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
Silent Village is small, but it has a lot of resources, and there is only one inn in the village.
"Boss He."
Walking into the inn, Ah Hao took the initiative to speak: "Arrange two guest rooms for these two Taoist leaders, and prepare a table of wine and food, and the money will be counted on my head." ”
"It turned out to be Captain Ahao."
The innkeeper's surname is He, a wealthy middle-aged man in his fifties, he glanced at Uncle Nine and Ye Chen in surprise, and said curiously.
"I wonder who these two are?"
"They're the masters I hired to deal with those horse thieves."
"I see."
When Boss He heard this, a smile appeared on his face: "Since it is to help our village deal with horse thieves, how can you let the captain pay for this meal...... Isn't it just a meal, wrapped in my Lao He! ”
"Boss He is righteous."
Soon, the wine and food were served to the table by Boss He himself.
Boss He is not stupid, he knows that Uncle Nine and Ye Chen, since they were brought by Ah Hao personally, they are naturally people with some ability.
And this kind of strange man, even if he is not coming for horse thieves, cannot be neglected in the slightest.
"Yo, what kind of big man am I!"
Just when a few people were talking and drinking in the inn, a strange voice of yin and yang suddenly sounded, but I saw a person who looked like a wealthy businessman, looking at this scene coldly, with a slight sneer on his face: "After doing it for a long time, there are two stinky Taoist priests who came here to be abducted and deceived, what a ...... Hum! ”
"This ......"
These words immediately made everyone unhappy.
And Ye Chen also frowned and said, "What's going on?" ”
"You don't know."
Boss He shook his head and explained: "Yesterday, a Maoshan Taoist priest came to the village, who cheated and cheated here, and was almost driven out of the village by us...... Boss Zhou is only afraid that he will regard you as an accomplice of this person, and he will only have such a remark when he is angry. ”
"Maoshan Taoist?"
Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly became a little weird: "What's his name and what does he look like?" ”
"I don't know the name, but the fake Taoist priest has a horse face, which is quite recognizable......
After hesitating for a moment, Boss He spoke.
"Look, it's him!"
At this time, Ah Hao's eyes also lit up, and he pointed to a certain place on the street, with a look of disdain.
Following the direction that Ah Hao was pointing, Ye Chen and Uncle Nine turned their heads to look.
I saw a horse-faced Taoist priest, standing in front of the steamed bun stall on the street with a dejected face, talking to the boss.
The latter waved his hand helplessly, and finally picked up two steamed buns, as if he was asking for food, and threw them to this person.
"Maoshan Ming!"
"Huh?"
A trace of doubt flashed on his face, and Ah Hao said curiously: "The two Dao Masters know him?" ”
"It's a one-sided relationship."
Ye Chen smiled lightly, he couldn't imagine that after Tan Million's incident, he would still be able to see this Mao Shanming.
"The day before yesterday, my senior brother and I passed by Fugui Town, and accidentally met this person in Tan Million's Mansion, and he was giving Tan Million's house......
Looking at the curious eyes of the two, Ye Chen also roughly explained what had happened.
"I see, it seems that this person is really not right!"
"It's good we didn't fall for him!"
Hearing that Mao Shanming actually raised a little ghost to intimidate Tan Million, whether it was Boss He or Ah Hao, their faces changed, and they were secretly happy.
"Captain Ahao, in my opinion, although this Mao Shanming has a bad heart, it is not an unforgivable crime......
Ye Chen smiled lightly, and said in a surprising voice: "Besides, it's still the time to employ people, since this person has come to Silent Village, why don't you let him help deal with a few horse thieves, and it can be regarded as making up for it, how about it?" ”
Ye Chen, who has watched "Mr. Phantom", knows that Mao Shanming's nature is not bad.
It's just that he uses the little ghost to make money, which is indeed a bit misguided, and he wants to help the other party by taking advantage of this opportunity.
"What the Taoist chief said is extremely true."
Hearing Ye Chen's proposal, Ah Hao nodded, walked out of the inn, and found Mao Shanming, who was on the corner of the street, pitifully nibbling on steamed buns.
"Well, it's you?"
When he came to the inn, Mao Shanming found two familiar figures.
Ah Hao on the side frowned and scolded: "Don't thank these two Dao Masters, if they hadn't said good things for you, people like you would have starved to death a long time ago, hum!" ”
"You ......"
When Mao Shan heard this, his face changed several times.
It stands to reason that on Tan Million's Mansion that day, if it weren't for Ye Chen and the others to stir up the situation, Maoshan would have cheated the silver by tomorrow, how could he end up in such a situation.
But at this time, it was Ye Chen who took the initiative to help him.
"Raising ghosts is not the right way after all."
didn't care about Maoshan Ming's face at all, Ye Chen shook his head, but he said: "And the rules of the Maoshan sect also don't allow disciples to raise ghosts and deceive people." ”
"I ...... I did it for three meals a day. ”
Mao Shanming bowed his head and said.
"Humph!"
Uncle Nine on the side was a little angry: "Ordinary people have hands and feet, as long as they are not lazy to eat, even if they work hard to do coolies, they will not starve to death, why bother to use those crooked brains...... Do you know that ghosts are unknown, and they are born with all kinds of bad luck, dealing with ghosts for a long time, even if it is not for the sake of raising ghosts and harming people, it will reduce their luck and yin virtue! ”
"I ......"
Maoshan Ming was even more embarrassed.
Uncle Nine said these truths, as a disciple of the Maoshan faction, how could he not know?
can say a thousand ways and ten thousand, it's not that he wants to be lazy and refuses to suffer those hardships.
It's impossible to work part-time, it's impossible to work in this life, you can only rely on raising ghosts and deceiving a few wronged people to make a living......
As if he saw Mao Shanming's thoughts, Ye Chen raised his head and looked at him with a smile: "Do you really plan to live like this and live a life in chaos?" ”
"I don't want to."
"So, I'll give you a chance...... As long as you behave well in the next time, I will accept you as a registered disciple and pass on the real Maoshan technique to you, how about it? ”
"Really?"
When Mao Shanming heard this, his heart suddenly moved.
Although he is a disciple of Maoshan, he has only learned a little bit from books, and he has not even practiced much mana, let alone casting spells, subduing demons and eliminating demons.
