Chapter 64: The Incense Picker
"Dao Chief, Dao Chief, I'm here, come here, Dao Chief. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Xiaoqing stood at the bow of the boat and made a horn shape with his hand, shouting loudly at a canopy boat not far away.
The canopy boat also seemed to hear Xiaoqing's shouting, and the bow of the boat slowly came to Bai Suzhen's canopy boat not far away, at the same time, Wang Qingming also lifted the curtain and walked to the bow of the boat, and Wang Qingming's cultivation was profound, and the law unfolded on its own, blocking all the smoke and rain in front of him, "Oh, it turned out to be the white girl and the little green girl, but we are fated and meet again." ”
Bai Suzhen, who had just walked to the bow of the boat and was holding an oil-paper umbrella, saw that it was Wang Qingming, so she saluted, "What Daoist friends say is very true, but we are very fateful, and we meet many times a day." ”
"Dao Chief, Dao Chief, let me sit on your boat, my sister is so bored here. Xiaoqing wanted to create an opportunity for Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian to be alone, so this would stop Wang Qingming's boat. "And, teach me how to play the piano. ”
"This ......" Wang Qingming was stunned for a moment, and then thought of the person sitting in his boat, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart The wonder of this fate, "There is already a friend in the boat of Poor Dao, if the little young girl doesn't mind, Poor Dao doesn't disagree, but Poor Dao doesn't play the piano, but tells a story to my friend." ”
"It's okay, Daoist's friend, he must be a good person, there's nothing to mind, as for the story, I like to hear it. "After all, Xiaoqing has just gotten along with people from the outside world, so he doesn't understand how people from the outside world treat people.
"Come over there, that guy is also a gentleman, and you probably won't be bored. As soon as Wang Qingming finished speaking, as soon as his mana dispersed, his awning boat gently collided with Bai Suzhen's awning boat.
As soon as Xiaoqing saw Wang Qingming leaning over the boat, she jumped briskly and jumped onto Wang Qingming's canopy boat, "Sister, I'll go play first, haha." After speaking, Xiaoqing chuckled, and then pulled Wang Qingming into the canopy boat, "You and Xu Gongzi, let's have a good time playing poetry." ”
"Xiaoqing......" Bai Suzhen just wanted to say something, but saw Xiaoqing disappear from her sight, so she didn't say anything, and resumed her smile and returned to the boat.
"My name is Xiaoqing, and I am a friend of the Taoist, what about you?" As soon as Xiaoqing entered the boat, he saw a young man dressed elegantly, holding a jade fan, and full of scholarly spirit, so he asked curiously.
"In Xia Zhang Yutang, I saw the girl. "Zhang Yutang just opened the curtain in the boat to observe Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen, I didn't feel anything at first, but now I look at Xiaoqing closely, Zhang Yutang finds that Xiaoqing is more and more beautiful, and the more you look at it, the more attractive it is, but Zhang Yutang is also a child of a rich family, and he has seen a lot of beautiful women, so he just sighed that Xiaoqing is good-looking, but he has no other ideas, "I like to play in this Qingming season, I didn't expect to encounter smoke and rain, fortunately, I was kind-hearted, so I invited me to the boat to avoid the smoke and rain." ”
"You're kind-hearted. After listening to Zhang Yutang's words, Xiaoqing smiled at Wang Qingming and said, "Then if I have something to do in the future, can I ask you for help?"
"If it doesn't go against the principles of heaven, and if you have nothing to do, the little young girl can come to me. Wang Qingming nodded, indicating that he was willing to help her.
"Haha, then I must trouble you as a Taoist leader in the future. Xiaoqing smiled and quipped, "Don't shirk when the time comes." ”
"The little young girl is really interesting. Zhang Yutang smiled, and then turned his gaze to Wang Qingming's body, "I don't know what happened to the incense-picking boy that Chang just talked about?"
"Picking up incense boys, is the Taoist chief telling Zhang Gongzi about the upper realm?" Xiaoqing also has a little understanding of the upper realm, and a day later, the word boy probably guessed that it was a fairy child in the upper realm, "Does the Taoist also know about the upper realm?"
"That's right, it's a matter of the Upper Realm. Wang Qingming nodded, and then looked at Zhang Yutang and Xiaoqing, with a light touch of his fingers, he lit a little agarwood next to his hand, "Miss Xiaoqing has just come, I'll talk about what I said before." ”
"Picking up incense boys, this god position is actually not very famous, and even most people in the mortal world don't even know this god position, but not knowing it doesn't mean that there is no such thing as it's outstanding. It does not refer to a boy who gathers sandalwood on the ground, but a man who sorts incense for the gods served by the people of the world. Wang Qingming opened his mouth to first introduce Xiaoqing's priesthood to Xiao Qing, so that she could roughly know the background of some of the things he said, "The incense produced by the worship of secular mortals will inevitably be contaminated with the thoughts of secular mortals, and the two will gather together to form the power of incense, and then follow the worship in the underworld, pass it to the heavenly court, and then go to the corresponding gods." For example, marriage to find Yue Lao, studies to find Wenqu Xingjun, good fortune to find Antarctic immortals, and then follow the power of these incense to fulfill his wishes for the person he asks. However, in fact, before this, when the power of incense had just entered the heavenly court, there was still a process to be dealt with: the incense boy had to separate the mortal thoughts in the power of incense from the incense!"
"Mortal thoughts, if they are separated by the incense picker, how can the gods of the upper realm know the wishes of mortals in the world?" Xiao Qing couldn't help but interrupt Wang Qingming's words and asked.
"The idea of worship for mortals is, at best, a good expectation for the future, but at worst, an insatiable desire. Speaking of this, Wang Qingming couldn't help but have a trace of haze in his eyes, because he also had such an insatiable desire.
"And this kind of desire is not a good thing for most gods, especially some of them can be described as insatiable greed, even if they are gods, they cannot be easily touched, such as 'I can kill the king and successfully become the new emperor', 'I can become the richest man in the dynasty without hard work', 'I can sit at home and a fairy will descend from the sky to be my daughter-in-law'...... This kind of incense power full of greed is not only not good for the gods, but also has great disadvantages!" Wang Qingming saw that Xiaoqing was very interested, so he explained it in more detail, "Therefore, the work of the incense boy is to select the power of incense that is attached to the power of incense that is attached to the peaceful and ordinary wishes as high-quality items, and also remove the negative desires attached to the power of the incense that cannot be touched, and turn it into the purest incense power possible, and then hand it over to the corresponding gods." ”
Speaking of this, Xiaoqing generally understood that although the status of the incense picker is not high, the importance of the work is not low, "Dao Chief, do you know the incense picker, why are you so clear about these?"
"Me? haha. Wang Qingming heard Xiaoqing's question and smiled but did not answer. Wang Qingming knows the incense-picking boy so well, but it is because among the thirteen gods who once calculated him, there is a god who has cultivated from the incense-picking boy to the god who is in charge of the priesthood.
"Dao Chief, what are you laughing at? Seeing Wang Qingming's appearance, Xiaoqing scolded a little angrily.
"Haha, okay, you two have generally understood the priesthood of the incense picker, so I'll continue. Wang Qingming laughed a few more times, and saw that Xiaoqing's face was a little annoyed, so he stopped laughing, but resumed his serious appearance, "It is said that there is a boy in this incense picking boy, one day after sorting incense, he will play in the heavenly court at will, unintentionally, this incense boy looked at the West Lake in the upper realm, and was attracted by a small cyan snake, and the incense boy looked at the little snake happily wandering in the West Lake water, and couldn't help but smile. ”
"Is it a little cyan snake?" Xiao Qing listened to Wang Qingming's words, couldn't help but stare at Wang Qingming, and repeated the sentence he was most concerned about.
Wang Qingming shook his head and didn't say anything else, "And this smile is against the rules of heaven, and he is moved." ”
"This smile, even if it moves mortal hearts?" Zhang Yutang heard this, and couldn't help but ask questions.
"Yes, is the heavenly rule so strict? just a smile!" Xiaoqing couldn't help but be curious.
"That's right, the heavens are strict, and the gods can't move the hearts of mortals, even a little. Wang Qingming nodded in confirmation, "However, these are only for some small, low-status gods, as for those gods with higher ranks, as long as they don't commit too serious heavenly rules, Heavenly Court will not pursue them." ”
"So, what happened to the incense picker?" Xiaoqing asked a little curiously.
"He was later sentenced by the Heavenly Court to be reincarnated and rebuilt. Wang Qingming glanced at Zhang Yutang with a smile and said with a little meaning.
"I don't know why the chief said this incense boy?" Zhang Yutang is also a smart person, as soon as he saw Wang Qingming glance at him, he felt a little wrong, "Is there anything you want to say? ”
"Do you want to know?" Wang Qingming looked at Zhang Yutang, his finger stopped, and suddenly there was an agarwood cigarette like a strand of silk thread, wrapped around Wang Qingming's fingertips, lingering.
"I want to know. Zhang Yutang stared at Wang Qingming tightly and said.
"I want to know too. Xiaoqing also seemed to be inspired by something, so she also stared at Wang Qingming and spoke.
"Haha. Wang Qingming laughed, the agarwood in his hand shook at Wang Qingming's fingertips, and suddenly changed from gray smoke to yellow incense, "That's right, the incense boy is you, and the green snake is Xiaoqing." ”
