This Taoist chief is also too direct, if he is thin-skinned, he will turn his head and leave.

It's not that I lack this money, but how do I feel that this Taoist priest is similar to the wine and meat monks of later generations?

In any case, the next day, Zhang Xiaofan took office and became an honorary member of the Four Holy Palaces - a fortune teller.

Zhang Xiaofan didn't have any complaints about this job, he was originally looking for a place to polish the true yuan, and where to cultivate is not to cultivate. Since you have chosen this Taoist temple, it is also fate to stay.

On the first day, in the morning, there were only children in the neighborhood running in to play, and then adults came to look for the children. Not a single customer came to the door for half a day.

"Senior Brother Sifang, please help buy some yellow paper, cinnabar and other things used in painting talismans," Zhang Xiaofan saw that the thin-faced Taoist priest was about to go out, so he hurriedly stopped him, took out a tael of silver and handed it over.

The Quartet Taoist priest was rich and easy to do, so he agreed to it after saying a few words, because Zhang Xiaofan dared to buy yellow paper talismans, and he also looked down on him.

In the afternoon, a mother-in-law came to repay her vows, with twenty eggs, the gift was light and affectionate, Zhang Xiaofan supported her mother-in-law, incense, and sent her out of the view.

The old host next to him loosened his mouth, but he didn't know whether to close his eyes or sleep.

The sun was about to set, and the Quartet Taoist priest and the three Youfang Taoist priests all rushed back, and took out yellow paper, cinnabar, brushes, inkstones, etc., the number was not much, Zhang Xiaofan thanked him.

To grind/make cinnabar ink, you need to concentrate and carefully evenly spot the fire in the cinnabar. Zhang Xiaofan waited for the ink to turn into a ball of aura beasts before he stopped and started to make a pure heart talisman.

The aura in this world is not sufficient, it is equivalent to the aura value of the real world, Zhang Xiaofan is not sure that he can succeed in making talismans for the first time, so he can only meditate and recite the mantra first, and wait for the mind to be proficient, and then his subordinates will have a god: "Too on the stage, the strain is non-stop, the evil spirit is bound, and the life is protected; Wisdom is clear, the mind is at peace, the three souls are eternal, and the spirit is not lost. ”

"Drawing a spell and babbling is inexplicable." There was a slippery wall outside the door, listened to the movement in the house, scolded a few words and walked away, although he didn't like to speak, but only listened to the tone, and he no longer doubted that Zhang Xiaofan understood Taoist skills.

On the second day, the morning was the same as yesterday, Zhang Xiaofan had nothing to do, honed the true yuan, kept drawing talismans in his heart, and strived to achieve it overnight, just like being able to be with the master Ninth Uncle, it would be better to come immediately.

Meditating during the day and making talismans at night, for half a month, Zhang Xiaofan didn't have a business, but the funds had already been paid two taels of silver, and yellow paper and cinnabar had also bought five taels of silver.

Although Zhang Xiaofan's attitude was relaxed, the other Taoist priests had already begun to secretly snicker.

When presiding over the dinner of the Sanguang Daoist, he mentioned a few words, let Zhang Xiaofan go out and contact the villagers, maybe he would encounter good luck, and the other Taoist priests echoed one after another, only the other two Taoist divination priests were hesitant.

Zhang Xiaofan politely declined, he is really indifferent now, go out to find something to do for himself, isn't this nothing to do? It's better to stay in the Taoist temple, practice the true yuan, and draw spells, which is stronger than anything else.

With this persuasion, the other Taoist priests no longer cared about Zhang Xiaofan's life or death, only the slim-faced Quartet Taoist priest asked for funds when the date came, and Zhang Xiaofan ran out of yellow paper and cinnabar, so he asked the Quartet Taoist priest to help buy some.

Two months have passed quietly, and the Midyear Festival has arrived.

The midyear festival is what the Chinese call the ghost festival, and Buddhism becomes the Obon festival. On this day, the ghost door is wide open, and all ghosts can travel to the world.

However, there are obviously no ghosts born in this world, so it is just a day for the Chinese people to worship their ancestors.

The Four Sacred Temples were originally dedicated to the Chinese ancestors Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang, so they got the funds allocated by the county officials and began to put up lanterns and pray for the people.

Zhang Xiaofan was even arranged to be a reception at the door because his means were not obvious.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiaofan is in a peaceful state of mind, and he is meticulous and thoughtful in receiving people and things, but many villagers and elders praise Zhang Xiaofan for being approachable, so he dislikes several Taoist priests.

After the Midyear Festival, the Taoist temple returned to calm, everyone began to liquidate the property, the big head was put away by the Sanguang host, as a future expense, a small part of the Quartet Taoist priests took some things in the view, and re-painted a layer of paint to the four holy grandfathers, and it looked like there were three points of divine power.

When all the Taoist priests thought that the Taoist temple would slowly regain its calm, more and more people came to seek medical advice.

They all named Zhang Tianshi, who wanted to find the Four Holy Temples.

There is only one Taoist priest surnamed Zhang in the Four Holy Temples, and that is Zhang Xiaofan.

Zhang Xiaofan received every visitor with a smile, even the visitor did not refuse, more than two months of talismans, has accumulated a lot, as long as you come to worship sincerely, you will recite a few words of blessing mantras to the visitors, and then send a pure heart talisman.

The effect of the heart purification charm is extraordinary, concentrating and calming the body, and slowly adjusting the body.

Every family who asks for a pure heart talisman, since the family comes to the pure heart talisman, they sleep soundly, eat sweetly, and their children go to school are much smarter and smarter.

For a time, there was a great heavenly master in the Four Sacred Temples, and more and more villagers came from the surrounding villages. A month later, on August 15, as soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passed, the Qingxin Fu was cleared.

As the so-called emperor is not in a hurry, he is in a hurry to die of a eunuch.

Zhang Xiaofan still slowly made the Qingxin talisman every night, and the effect was much faster than before. At first, I only made four or five pieces a day, but now I can make 20 pieces in one night.

But that's it, it's also in short supply.

In three months, more than 900 pure heart talismans were made, which was not enough for the nearby villagers. The Xiangshan monks who came from afar couldn't buy the Qingxin talisman in Zhang Xiaofan's hand, so they bought it from the villagers.

What is amazing is that once these heart purification talismans are taken off the body, they are brought back again, because there is no Zhang Xiaofan personally praying for blessings, the pure heart talismans have no effect.

Zhang Xiaofan's reputation has become even louder.

On this day, as soon as the Taoist temple opened the door, an old man in silk clothes, under the guidance of a subordinate, came to Zhang Xiaofan, bowed down sincerely, kowtowed, and said: "Heavenly Master, the villain is from the provincial capital, and he made a special trip to visit the Heavenly Master. ”

"The layman is out of the bank," Zhang Xiaofan could see at a glance that the things carried over by seven or eight servants included a plate of silver taels, a plate of copper coins, as well as shoes and socks, sesame oil, fire candles and other things, all of which were of great value.

The old man didn't even dare.

Zhang Xiaofan invited him to kneel and worship the four saints, still prayed for him, and sent a pure heart talisman.

"Heavenly Master, the villain has a reluctant request, and I also ask the Heavenly Master to be considerate of the villain's filial piety."

"Oh? What's the matter? Lay people, please speak. ”

The old man smiled embarrassedly, and arched his hand: "It's also a blessing for the villain, I am sixty and eight this year, but the old mother of Gaotang is still alive, so that I can do my filial piety to the villain." ”

"This is indeed your blessing," Zhang Xiaofan smiled and sat back in his seat.

The old man nodded, and then said: "My old mother is old, deaf and dizzy, and has been bedridden for a long time. At present, five generations in my family are in the same house, and I want to leave a memory for future generations, and recently there is a foreigner in the city, called a camera. You can take pictures of the scene. ”

When the old man said something, it turned out that he had come to seek medical treatment.

Glancing left and right, looking around, his eyebrows and eyes were slightly wrinkled, Zhang Xiaofan opened his mouth and said: "Lingtang has a long life, a gentleman has the beauty of an adult, I will go to your mansion tomorrow morning to pray for Lingtang, please go back." ”

"Heavenly Master, what are you going to do? I have a soft sedan car, a carriage, a good horse......"

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and smiled, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "I have my own way of traveling, if you go back, tomorrow morning, you will not live up to the promise." ”

Seeing that the Heavenly Master had closed his eyes and recuperated, the old man didn't dare to argue any more, so he had to leave the soft sedan chair, carriage, and steed, and took the carriage himself to rush back. It took more than 100 miles to rush back to the provincial capital from here, and the bumps were terrible, and the old man was afraid that his body would not be able to stand it, but he was afraid that he would not be able to see the Heavenly Master the next day, which angered the Heavenly Master, and the consequences were unimaginable, so he had to make the groom hurry up.

Along the way, I thought I would have chest tightness and shortness of breath, but I didn't expect the bumpy carriage, after sitting for a day, after rushing back to the provincial capital, the old man was already in good spirits, and at this time he was surprised by the heart talisman hanging on his chest.

I also have a little more confidence in the coming of the Heavenly Master tomorrow.

Because the Heavenly Master was invited, the maids and servants in the house began to sweep the floor with clear water, and the loess paved the streets, which was very lively. The neighbors came to inquire, and I heard that it was to welcome the Heavenly Master of the Four Holy Palaces, and those who didn't know laughed loudly, and those who knew about it also had to observe, and if the Heavenly Master's skills were really magical, I would like to invite them.

On this day, Zhang Xiaofan prayed for dozens of pilgrims from morning to night, and was busy until the time came, when the Four Saints Temple closed, and then he was idle.

"Heavenly Master, then there are still people waiting for you," the Quartet Dao Master is currently respectful to Zhang Xiaofan, and he has treated Zhang Xiaofan as a true immortal, shouting Heavenly Master, his heart is drumming.

Zhang Xiaofan glanced at it, the two people outside the door were servants brought by the old man, and found a Taoist priest to invite them to go down to rest.

Eating as usual in the evening, the old man's servant was shocked: "This heavenly master made an appointment with his master to pray for the old woman the next day, and he still doesn't move, how can he get it tomorrow?" Could it be that you are tired today, so you postpone it for a day? ”

After dinner, Zhang Xiaofan still made tomorrow's talismans, and only blew the lamp to sleep in the middle of the night.

Overnight, there were countless people worried, and Zhang Xiaofan slept soundly.

The servants of the old man's house trembled, waiting for Zhang Xiaofan to summon and use it, and it was not until dawn that he heard movement in Zhang Xiaofan's house.

After a while, Zhang Xiaofan came out and took the washbasin to fetch well water, washed it clean, ran to the stone altar to exercise, and waited for the sky to be bright, then he walked to the kitchen and hastily ate some rice porridge.

said to the few people present: "Yesterday, the old man asked me to pray for his mother, I will rush over now, if there is no accident, I should be able to rush over when I open the door today, don't panic." ”

When the words landed, Zhang Xiaofan swished, turned into a virtual shadow, and disappeared.

Not to mention the panic of the Four Sages, Zhang Xiaofan controlled the light wind, and the light power was like a divine messenger, the speed was getting faster and faster, and he arrived in the provincial capital, but it was only half an hour.

According to the address given by the old man, he came to the door of a large mansion.

I saw the door open, and several servants stood at the door, constantly looking and probing.

These servants probed their brains, and suddenly saw an extra Taoist priest in front of the door, and their first reaction was that the disciples of the Four Holy Heavenly Masters had arrived.

Zhang Xiaofan was dressed lightly, saying that he was wearing a Taoist robe, but it was a washed white cyan Taoist robe, with a pair of bast shoes on his feet, a Taoist bun on his head, and a pine hairpin. The face is thin, the eyes are bright, and the conversation and laughter are gentle and elegant, not like a Taoist priest, but more like a scholar.

The servant ran to the inner courtyard in a panic, intending to inform his master.

Zhang Xiaofan took a look, there was a plaque on the door of this mansion, which was written to the Qin Mansion.

After a while, I saw the old man running out in a panic yesterday, followed by a large group of people, and as soon as he saw the young Taoist on Independence Street outside the door, he immediately knelt down and fell to the ground.

Zhang Xiaofan received pilgrims to worship at the Four Sacred Temples because of the environment.

Now at the door of someone else's house, let the owner of the family kneel down and worship himself, Zhang Xiaofan is a little cheeky......

Well, that feels good.
