Chapter 9: The Challenge Book and the Qing Dynasty Taoist Priests

Although I joined this matter halfway and didn't make much effort, Boss Pan still gave me a red envelope of 10,000 yuan. Coupled with the 50,000 yuan "hush money" given by the yellow robe Xiaodao, I will have 60,000 yuan in my account at once. I thought to myself, this is too easy to earn, right?

60,000 yuan, I have to work in that publishing company for 30 months to earn it!

Rub, Taoist priest is such a lucrative profession!

After that, Chen Youbo asked me out for a drink, and he asked me what I was up to lately. I sighed and said what else could I do, looking for a job. You bosses are so hard to serve. We've just graduated, so let's pass five levels and kill six generals.

Chen Youbo smiled and said, "Since you have the right to pick people, who doesn't want to pick the best?" He took a sip of wine and said, "Then again, aren't you a Taoist priest?" Isn't it good to be in this business? Why bother looking for a job? ”

I said, "First, because I don't have money, how expensive is the housing price in Modu, how can I afford to rent a place for a long time to build a Taoist hall?" Second, I don't have any connections in Modu, and even if I barely open a Taoist hall, I'm afraid I can only swatt flies. ”

Chen Youbo said: "This is also a matter? I happen to have a house in Modu. If you can use it, you can use it first. But let me explain first, the address is a bit off. As for connections, I have worked hard in Modu for more than ten years, and I know a lot of people, so I can introduce people to you. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and it is inevitable that it will be hard at first, but as long as you have real materials, the reputation will come out in the future, and the business will naturally be good. Young man, take your time. ”

Although the house Chen Youbo said is not in the city center, it is actually not too remote. However, the house is located in an old neighborhood in Modu, and the surroundings are very poor. But I'm already content. Chen Youbo also helped me find someone to decorate the hall. He said that on the day of completion, he would help me invite a few reporters to come over and take pictures and write advertorials. After all, publicity is very important when doing business.

During the time I waited, I flipped through the book "Heavenly Dao Atlas" whenever I had time. In less than a week, I was stunned to memorize the entire "Heavenly Dao Atlas". With a lot of theoretical knowledge, I was very eager for the opportunity to put it into practice.

Soon it was time for the opening of the temple. When I took off the red cloth and saw the three gilded characters of "Tiandaotang", I had mixed feelings. In a certain corner of Zhanjiang, there used to be such a Taoist hall called Tiandaotang. That place witnessed the lonely life of a Maoshan Taoist priest named Zhong Youdao. I wonder what kind of story happened there?

"Chief Chung, let's go to the plaque and let the reporters take a picture." Chen Youbo pulled me out of my cluttered thoughts.

I walked under the plaque, and the reporters couldly "clicked" the shutter.

Suddenly, a dozen or so people broke in noisily. It was the yellow-robed trail that took the lead. I was taken aback, and secretly said in my heart, could it be that he regretted giving me 50,000 yuan, and now he brought someone to rob the money?

Unexpectedly, the fame of this yellow-robed trail was not small, and one of the reporters shouted: "Isn't this the closed disciple of Lingbao Tianzun, Daoist Hu?" As he spoke, he turned the camera to him and "clicked" and filmed wildly.

The yellow-robed Xiaodao arrogantly raised his head and leaned back, saying, "Panzi! This thing thought that he had put on a proud and glamorous posture as the only empress in the sky and on the ground, but the reality ruthlessly threw him in the face, and he looked like Tang Bohu's stupid son in the autumn fragrance.

Behind him, a big stupid man swaggered up to me and arrogantly handed me an envelope.

The envelope had the words "Challenge Book" written on it.

The opening of the hall, which was originally unnewsworthy, turned into a dramatic war declaration drama, and the reporters present were all interested and turned their cameras at us.

I opened the envelope, and there was a piece of stationery inside, and there were only three words on the paper: "Challenge Book". This really fits the guy's style. I said what do you want to do?

The yellow-robed trail said: "Mo is the territory of our Tianxuan Hall, Zhong Daoyou, you have crossed the line!" ”

Chen Youbo said: "In the business field, everyone eats according to their ability, why do you think you can draw a boundary? ”

The yellow-robed trail said: "We are here today to compare our skills!" He looked at me and said, "Do you dare to accept my challenge?

The reporters didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and they all started to shout, "Accept!" "Accept!" "What do you want to compare?" "What if you lose?"

The yellow-robed Xiaodao sneered and walked around me slowly, saying, "I want to compete with you!" ”

I said, "How?" ”

The yellow robe said in a small way: "Have you heard that there have been several tragic cases of children being craniotomy in Modu in the past few months? ”

When the reporters heard this, they were even more excited, and some said: "This case has caused great social repercussions." The police attached great importance to this case under the pressure of public opinion, but after so much time, they still had no clue. Many people say it's a monster. Could it be that Daoist Hu has the confidence to crack this case? ”

The yellow-robed trail said, "That's right! Don't hide it from reporters and friends, last night my master Lingbao Tianzun and his old man entrusted me with a dream, so that I could do the right thing for heaven and eliminate harm for the people. Zhong Daoyou, in front of so many journalist friends today, I want to challenge you, let's take seven days, whoever catches the real culprit behind these cases first will win. Do you dare to accept it? ”

I bought a watch last year! How do you check this? But people have already stepped on the door, can I not fight? Although I was very empty, I still had to say calmly: "Okay, I accept your challenge." ”

The yellow-robed Xiaodao looked provocative and said: "No matter who loses, you must worship the winner as a teacher, and from now on, you must obediently listen to the master's teachings!" ”

Hey, it's arrogant like this! Could it be that he already knows what is the blame? I looked as usual, smiled and said, "If I accept you as an apprentice, wouldn't I be the same generation as Lingbao Tianzun?" What's so embarrassing about that? ”

The yellow-robed trail said, "Phew! Soon I will help my master take you as a good disciple!" After saying that, he swaggered away with his rabble.

After the reporters also left, Chen Youbo comforted me and said: "If we make such a fuss, we will definitely be able to occupy a lot of space." I smiled bitterly and said, "I just hope this is not the last time the Heavenly Dao Hall will appear in the public eye." ”

Chen Youbo's house is a three-story old building, the first floor is used as a Taoist hall, and the second and third floors can be used for people. I moved all my luggage and belongings, and I officially moved into the Heavenly Dao Hall.

I was lying on the sofa on the third floor studying the Heavenly Dao Seal, and a face suddenly appeared less than a centimeter in front of my eyes. The owner of the face blinked his eyes and looked at me left and right.

It's not the first time I've seen a ghost, and I said calmly, "Dude, you're too close." ”

The guy was startled, took a few steps back, and shouted, "You can see the poor road before it appears?" Could it be that you are also a member of my Daomen? ”

Only then did I see that this guy was only twenty or thirty years old, with an elegant appearance, a wide robe with large sleeves, and his hair was combed into a bun, quite a fairy style.

I got up from the couch and said, "Who are you?"

The guy gave me a deep slap and said, "The poor Dao Law is called Jade Mirror, born in the thirteenth year of Yongzheng. ”

Well? Yongzheng? The Yongzheng who was played bad by the palace fighting drama? What international jokes? I said that you died in the Qing Dynasty and remained in the world after more than 200 years? What do you want?

Yujing said: "Definitely. Definitely. Poor Dao never died. ”

Not dead?

Yujing said: "Poor Dao has worshiped the Pure Void Dao as a teacher since childhood. He said that when he was eleven or twelve years old, he got a strange book called "The True Book of Leaving the Soul" by chance. It is said that after training, the soul can go out of the body and fly back and forth in the air. He has been a Taoist priest since he was a child, and he has no other hobbies, so he is only keen on practicing various Taoist techniques.

He was thrilled when he got the book. But it was not an orthodox scripture after all, and he was afraid that his master would say that he was not doing his job, so he didn't dare to let his master know about it, and he had been secretly cultivating.

One day when he was twenty-seven years old, he hid in his room as usual and quietly practiced the "Soul Leaving True Sutra", and it didn't take long for him to suddenly feel light and fluttering. When I looked down, it turned out that he was floating in mid-air, and his body was at his feet!

After more than ten years of hard training, he has really practiced the out-of-body method! He was overjoyed and immediately flew into the sky.

After the jade mirror was enjoyed, I thought it was time to return to my body...... It was really unlucky, at that time he couldn't find his way back to the Taoist temple! When he finally returned to the Taoist temple, he found that his body had been burned into a jar of ashes! It turned out that his master thought that he had died violently, and directly burned his "corpse"!

Yujing said that although he became a spirit, he was not a ghost, and the underworld was unwilling to accept it. The sad thing is that he has no body in the world, and he can only wander around, unable to stay. When he floated to this area by chance, he was surprised to find that he was able to stay here.

Later, it was demolished and rebuilt, and many different houses were built. When he's bored, he travels around the world and comes back here when he wants to stop. Although it will take a long time for this road idiot to come back every time, he will come back eventually. It's like home to him.

I thought about it for a while and said, "No, you were born in the Qing Dynasty, why didn't you shave your head and keep braids?" ”

Yujing said that at that time, there was a "ten from ten" policy.

"Ten from ten do not follow", one of which is "Confucianism and interpretation of the Tao do not follow". That is, "the family descends, but the monks do not descend". In the family must change to wear the flag man's costume and shave his hair and keep braids. The monks remained unchanged and could still wear Ming Dynasty Han-style clothing.

I didn't plan to talk nonsense with this guy anymore, but after thinking about it, this guy is definitely more professional than me, a rookie Taoist, since he was a child, maybe he will know what is doing something in Modu.

I explained the situation a little, and Yujing exclaimed: "Isn't it Mao Rongpo?" This monster eats children's brains! ”

My mind was like a gear, and I immediately remembered the description of Mao Rongpo in the "Heavenly Dao Atlas". The picture is of an old woman with cat ears.

Cat Demon Chapter.

The cat demon, commonly known as the cat Rongpo. There are many spiritual treasures in the places where cat demons live.

The cat demon's skills are not strong, but it can turn into leeches and escape at critical moments, which is quite difficult to hunt. Cat demons are cautious by nature, and once attacked, they will no longer appear in the area where they were previously active. Therefore, before eliminating the demon, you must deploy carefully, flexibly fight the enemy, and ensure that it is done once and for all.
