Chapter 145: The Soul Sutra

Lingshuguan is a big customer, of course the boss of Minghai Bookstore will not take a shelf, and soon came to Ji Hong and Chen An. The boss was in his thirties, with two mustaches on his lips, looking mature and steady, and when he saw that it was two little Taoist boys who came to talk about business with him, he neither showed contempt nor any expression of joy, but a sincere appearance, which made people can't help but have a trace of trust.

Gao Gong said that as long as Boss Huang can complete the rubbing of the scriptures on time, the price is not a problem. "Ji Hong is not very old, but his qi cultivation kung fu is good, and he calmly explains things clearly.

"Daoist Xu Ling is true to the truth, we naturally believe it, but the matter of book repair you said before, about the craftsman, we have to talk about it again. "Boss Huang doesn't procrastinate, it seems that he is going to finalize things today.

Ji Hong thought for a while and continued: "That's the case, after all, the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is an important place for the Lingshu Temple, and too many people can't be allowed to enter, but this time the Guanli has destroyed a lot of books because of the mismanagement, and the insect plague has destroyed a lot of books, and it can't be done if you don't cultivate, so Gao Gong means that you can try to let trustworthy people enter it, and it is best to be the kind of person who can join the practice in the Guanzhong, and specialize in managing this part, even if the book repair skills are almost there, it doesn't matter, I don't know if Boss Huang has any good recommendations." ”

This sentence is secretive, in essence, he wants to dig into the corner, but Boss Huang has no anger to say that because of the popularity of Mojia printing at this stage, the price of books has plummeted, and repairing books is indeed not a popular job, and only they have such a group of people in the bookstore. These people live a hard life, Boss Huang is friendly and does not mean to block people's money, after all, Lingshuguan is a good place, not a Taoist priest who has been ordained can't help but get married, no different from ordinary people, and there is a lot of worship, and it is not a problem to feed a family.

He pondered two or three before he hesitated: "There is such a person, he is still young, only fifteen this year, he is innocent, and he has an old mother to support at home, which is also hard." Inherited such a job from his deceased Lao Tzu, he has no experience, his skills are very poor, and he doesn't know how long Xu Dao ......"

Speaking of this, he looked at Ji Hong and waited for Ji Hong to speak, but Ji Hong didn't dare to make a decision on his own, so he said: "I should take Boss Huang's words to reply to Gao Gong, and it is up to his old man to decide everything." ”

Boss Huang smiled: "It should be so." ”

The two of them have decided, Ji Hong and Chen An returned to the view and found Xu Ling, this is a man in his forties, with an ordinary face, but he has a detached temperament, worthy of the title of Dao Quanzhen, he heard Ji Hong's words, and made a decision on this matter after a deep groan.

He looked up at Chen An again and smiled gently: "I'm short of manpower here, say hello to Liang Xunzhao another day, and you can stay and help Ji Hong." ”

"Yes, thank you for your kindness. Chen An has an identity, of course he agreed, and he also noticed a detail, when Ji Hong was talking to Xu Ling, his posture was equal, the two were not in a master-apprentice relationship, and there was no difference between the elder and the young, but they were so close, which was really interesting.

Xu Ling nodded and left.

Ji Hong was very excited that he had someone to accompany him, and took Chen An and went to Minghai Bookstore to implement this matter as soon as possible.

When he arrived at Minghai Bookstore, Boss Huang not only gathered the team that went to Lingshuguan to perform the rubbing task, but also brought the teenager he recommended to take care of and repair the books.

This young man is really not very old, but he looks much older than Ji Hong and Chen An. His skin is rarely fair, he seems to have the blood of the Western Regions, his thin cheeks are sharpened by life, his eyebrows are delicate, and he is also tall, fifteen years old is a head taller than Chen An.

"This is Pei Ming, you have also seen the character, he is definitely an honest child," Boss Huang didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with introducing him like Ji Hong and Chen An, who were obviously in front of teenagers under fifteen, and didn't care that Pei Mingtong blushed, and he was still like a trafficker, sparing no effort to recommend: "He is just a little good at gambling, but this kid is not contaminated with this habit...... Although he didn't have the true inheritance of his father, he also had two brushes in his hands, and he was still young and had room to rise......"

After running back and forth this day, Ji Hong no longer had to pull Chen An to be brave like in the morning, so as to relieve his worries, he calmly talked with Boss Huang and finalized all the details, and then Chen An returned to the Lingshu Temple with the booksmith team and Pei Ming.

After handing over the errand with the deacon and the Taoist, and arranging the residence of the bookmaker and Pei Ming, he said to Chen An: "Gao Gong has spoken, senior brother doesn't have to go back to the liao department today, just rest in the side compartment of this Douzhai Palace, and tomorrow we will go to the Jing Pavilion to help." ”

Chen An pinched it for a moment before nodding in agreement, but in fact, there was no place for him in the liao department, and he was a supernumerary at all.

Ji Hong found an empty room for Chen An next door to his room: "Tomorrow we will move to the Jing Pavilion to live, and the senior brother will stay for one night." ”

Chen An glanced at the room, the room was not too big, but it was a single room, which was a unique treatment of the Ministry of Economics, and it was better than a mixed room with many people in the Liao Department. So he said politely: "You should go back and rest early, you will have to be busy tomorrow." ”

Ji Hong smiled and nodded back to his room, Chen An closed the door, his face was a little heavy, now the situation in Yunzhou is about to erupt, and the key people about Xiaoguang's clues are involved, he can't be in a hurry, only lurking here, waiting for the opportunity, is the old plan.

It's not that he didn't think that his judgment was wrong, and Xiaoguang was actually plundered by the master of the sand sea. But no matter how famous the master of Shahai is, he is also a person in the martial arts, and Xiaoguang's fate can be expected. But Xianmen is different, I don't know what kind of yin things will be. It is impossible for him to give up Shangluo and go to the sand sea in order to confirm what he thinks in his heart, if he gives up halfway at this moment, he may regret it for life in the future. Therefore, under the lack of skills, he can only go to the black on one road in Shangluo.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Ji Hong and Chen An took the craftsmen and Pei Ming to the front of an attic in the depths of the Lingshu Temple, this attic is ordinary, three stories high, and the exterior wall is not brightly decorated, which is far worse than the previous temples, although there is no sense of too much dilapidation, but it also does not match the identity of the rich man of the Lingshu Temple.

At the door of the pavilion to greet everyone is an old Taoist priest with white hair, his face is ruddy like a baby, there is no sense of twilight between walking, when he greets everyone, there seems to be a fairy energy surging around his body, which makes people look at it in awe, and has a true image.

Chen An squinted his eyes slightly when he saw it, he had also encountered this feeling before, that was when he was hunted down by the people of the Gao family, the Yuan Ling Martial Artist.

This Lingshu view is only famous in Shangluo, and other places are not public, and the reputation is not obvious, I didn't expect to take the way of martial arts, but there should be no top masters in charge, otherwise it would have spread all over the northwest, so I can really hide here.

Thinking in his heart, Chen An restrained the qi around him a little more, the great dry martial arts are prosperous, who knows what kind of miraculous secret methods there are, even if he is facing the Yuan Ling martial artist, he does not dare to underestimate it.

With Chen An's cultivation of returning to the basics, the other party really didn't notice his abnormality, but came to Ji Hong, looked at Pei Ming and said with a kind smile: "It's this little Tanyue, just leave it to Poor Dao, and leave the rest to Ji Hong." ”

Ji Hong's first jaw said yes.

The old Taoist priest made a bow to the craftsmen behind him after a few thoughtful gestures, and led Pei Ming into the scripture pavilion to the third floor.

Ji Hong glanced thoughtfully at their backs, and then beckoned the craftsmen to enter the Jing Pavilion. All this came into Chen An's eyes, and he felt as if he could encounter some interesting things wherever he went. He took two steps to Ji Hong's side and asked curiously, "Who is that old Taoist priest, he looks like a cow." ”

Ji Hong shook his head: "I don't know, I only know that he is the biggest except for the master Li Zhenren." ”

Chen An shrugged his shoulders and didn't care much, indeed, Yuan Ling martial artists are often called half-step peerless, but for him who is truly peerless now, even if he has a mysterious weapon, it is not enough. This is confidence and self-confidence.

When they came to the prayer pavilion, the craftsmen were arranged into a secluded private room, where they placed their tools and arranged them. Ji Hong took Chen An to shuttle between the first and second floors, summarized and sorted out the scriptures to be rubbed, and moved them to that room for the craftsmen to work.

Chen An was busy, and casually flipped through the scriptures to be rubbed, and found that they were all Taoist classics such as "Yuqing Supreme Lingbao Natural Beidou True Scripture" and "Taishang Xuanling Beidou Natal Life Yansheng True Scripture", which had nothing to do with martial arts and secret arts. Thinking about it, what Ji Hong can be responsible for will not be too important, chivalry is forbidden by martial arts, and martial arts classics are the top priority everywhere. Thinking of Ji Hong's gaze just now, Chen An couldn't help but glance in the direction of the third floor, maybe that was the real core of the Jing Pavilion, with a secret collection of martial arts classics.

However, even if he has these scriptures in his hand, they are not available everywhere, and they are not sold in the bookstores outside, and if you want to buy them, you can only buy them in a formal Taoist temple such as Lingshu Temple. The great cadres are very strict in the management of Buddhism and Taoism and other religions, which is mainly due to the troubled times of Xianmen 70 years ago, they consciously stood high and tried to meddle in the secular authority, and were severely taught how to be a person by the Zhenguo Gong.

Although that time did not cause much damage to the government of the Great Qian, it made the rulers of the Great Qian always vigilant, after all, thousands of years later, there have been several towns and kingdoms in this world. Therefore, even the Daomen and Buddhism, which were deeply involved with the Xianmen, were ruthlessly suppressed, and the shouts of destroying the Buddha and the Dao in those years were very loud.

Fortunately, in recent years, Xianmen has been a lot more honest, and he did not dare to disobey Emperor Daqian's edict, which led to the peace of the East China Sea in the Western Regions today. I thought that Xianmen would be honest, but I didn't expect that this Yunzhou was a little discordant, and they all came out again.

Chen An's eyes were deep, covering his inner thoughts, and he leaned down to concentrate on sorting out the books in his hand.

These scriptures were all summarized before, Chen An only needs to classify them, and then go out to work hard and move away, but it is also easy, and the day will be spent in this kind of busyness.
