Chapter 19: I Want to Find a Soul Master
Chapter 19: I Want to Find a Soul Master (Second Watch, Come on Yourself!)
As soon as the day dawned, Dongfang couldn't wait to get up, since the potential danger of the two old dogs of Hei Luosha was eliminated, every time he thought about it, he was refreshed!
It's just that he made a meal last night, and Dongfang admired those cooks who cook all year round from the bottom of his heart, they are all treasures! He imitated the roast rabbit made by safflower, and was ridiculed by safflower, so he was not embarrassed! In the words of Hua Hong: poor craftsmanship, poor taste, poor shape, poor heat! It is not eaten by people at all, even if it is fed to pigs, pigs will dislike it! Hey~! No way, for the sake of his own physical and mental health, it is indeed a top priority to see a doctor for safflower.
Because he urgently needs to find a soul master now to treat the sequelae of the destruction of the three soul qi gathering talismans of the red flower.
This in itself is a joke......
Aunt Xue doesn't think so, it couldn't be easier to find a soul master, and treating this simple symptom is simply a gesture for a soul master......
Seven days have passed since the countdown to the three-year covenant, and within seven days, the black Luosha has been removed, the sea of hearts has been enlightened, and the mind that has awakened and transformed into the form of the body has been awakened, and the second mind has been additionally attached, and the overall progress is quite satisfactory.
Dongfang just thought about it confidently and proudly, and Aunt Xue on the side pursed her lips, she didn't seem to be very cold, as if to say, you are quite easily satisfied......
Baiyun Town is famous because there is a Baiyun Mountain in the territory, the mountain is like a long dragon, the air vein is long, winding like a dragon, extending hundreds of kilometers longitudinally, the Jinshui River under the mountain cuts off the mountains, but only bypasses the mountain direction of Baiyun Mountain, it is said that this mountain is the dragon lying down, the water force can not be eroded, even the rushing Jinshui River has to detour. The altitude of Baiyun Mountain is not a high mountain, but there are white clouds around it all year round, hence the name. The mountain is full of green trees, and there is only one stone staircase mountain road that winds through the secluded path, going deep into the white clouds. Maybe the dragon has a spirit, it is not dead, the white cloud seems to be his breath, it is strange to say, no matter how big the wind knife frost sword, when passing by Baiyun Mountain, it will turn into a breeze and drizzle, because of the protection of this dragon, there has never been a drought or flood, Baiyun Town is smooth in wind and rain, and there are countless people who come to worship the saints in a radius of thousands of miles. After a long time, Baiyun Town gradually became the most prosperous town in the east of the Spring Sea.
Due to the terrain limitations, the town is not very large, but it is very prosperous......
The greatest contribution of the previous mayors to Baiyun Town is to spare no effort to rectify and govern public security, which is also one of the important reasons why Baiyun Town is extremely prosperous. Here, the folk customs are simple, there are few traitors, and it can only be regarded as a pure land, and there is not much exaggeration!
The second major contribution of the previous mayors to Baiyun Town is that there are very detailed and specific economic and trade rules, which is also the premise and guarantee of the economic and trade development of Baiyun Town.
When each commodity, trading goods, and goods enter the checkpoint of Baiyun Town, all of them will be charged a one-time tax payment and will be left with the introduction of the goods and the signature of the transaction permitted, and there is no need to pay the change of ownership tax again after the transaction, and no fees will be levied again in the process of commodity circulation! This is also an extremely rare situation in the entire Twelve Directions World, and it can be said that there is no other place to do it. Based on this regulation, more and more goods are converging in Baiyun Town...... It has the courage to gather the world's materials.
I have to marvel at the generosity of the mayor of the town, this tax alone is a wealth that rivals the wealth of the country!
To enter Baiyun Town, you must pass through four city walls, each of which has hundreds of large and small tax cards, and the west wall and east wall are as many as 200 tax cards...... The south wall is facing the river and the north wall is close to the mountain, so the tax card is appropriately less...... Those commodities that tried to get through the customs in a foolish way could not be traded even if they entered the town! Without the signature of the tax card, no one dared to collect or sell them, and none of those merchants who had the mentality of luck could escape the confiscation of the goods and would never be allowed to enter Baiyun Town! After a long time, because there were no fish that slipped through the net, Baiyun Town's reputation was greatly enhanced, and no one dared to deceive and conceal it; Baiyun Town did not care about the source of the goods, and there was no fighting in the city, and everything was to talk about money.
It is not surprising that a small Baiyun town has such a sophisticated arrangement and such ability, because there are two major groups in the town, which are responsible for governance, guarding, and fair trade......
These two organizations are the fundamental guarantee for the ultimate maintenance of the status quo, with the guerrilla office responsible for law and order and the lizheng office responsible for fair trade...... Most of the members of the Second Division are hired by various localities with a lot of money, and their cultivation is extremely high, and there is a special set of anti-tax evasion systems...... Therefore, if you want to enter Baiyun Town, you have to do your duty, and once you enter Baiyun Town, you have to do your duty.
The tax card subdivides the goods into a number of categories, and each type of goods charges a rated tax, the amount is only one percent of the value of the goods, so everyone is willing to go through this set of procedures, which is not only a guarantee for the safety of the goods, but also for the experience of the dignity of being a trader, you don't have to worry about people treating you as a profiteer, you don't have to worry about yourself being slaughtered, spend money generously, make money fairly, here is the name of the businessman, here is the endorsement of the transaction.
All traders are treated equally in the town, and almost all the townspeople are merchants, and their own businesses are different, such as consignment, collection, and referral...... It's no exaggeration to say that as long as you enter any store, you will basically not leave empty-handed.
If this merchant can't find what you're looking for, it means that you can't find the goods you're looking for in the whole of Baiyun Town, and you can assume that it's hard to find it elsewhere.
Because this is a unique Baiyun Town, therefore, all kinds of characters from the south to the north gather, strange people emerge in endlessly, Baiyun Town ranks among the top ten charming cities in the world of the 12 parties, and the name is well deserved!
Since there was nothing to sell, Dongfanghong and his entourage directly entered Baiyun Town, overlooking Baiyun Mountain, white clouds swirling, clouds and breezy winds, and the climate and temperature were very stable, so it was very pleasant. Regardless of experiencing the special aspects of Baiyun Town, the three of them walked straight into a small shop under the leadership of Aunt Xue, Dongfang glanced at the name of the store, "One Book Station" is very ordinary and very simple, but I wondered, sister, why are you here to come to the bookstore? We are not here to buy books, but to find a soul master!
The store is not big, there is no one for the time being, the guy who is standing with his hands is wearing a clean and tidy cloth clothes, seeing that there is a guest arriving, he took a few steps to greet him, nodded slightly as a greeting gift, and said respectfully: "The three distinguished guests have worked hard all the way, please sit down and rest for a while......"
The man's voice is not loud or small, neither humble nor arrogant, without the slightest flattery, oily and smooth style, which sounds very comfortable.
The well-trained fellow only looked at the three of them for a moment, and did not look at them again, but there was not the slightest feeling of contempt for the child in his eyes, nor the slightest expression of slackness.
As soon as I sat down, a beautiful girl came out of the shop, looking more than ten years old, smiling and bringing a tea tray.
The guy took the tea tray, put a cup beside everyone, and said, "Xiaoyi is mainly engaged in all kinds of books and classics, I don't know what kind of books the three of you need?"
"Oh, I'm not busy, I don't buy books, I just want you to help us go out and call a soul master in, I need a soul master for something?......" Aunt Xue looked like an acquaintance, a young and old man, she quietly passed on what she wanted to say to Dongfang, Dongfang is very different, this little girl, phew! Sister, I didn't even know you had such magical powers!
"What, is there a soul master on the street outside?"
"What's the fuss, aren't soul masters everywhere?"
"Big brother, slow down, I don't know anywhere else, in our Baiyun Town, it's really easy to find a soul master!"
"It's not easy, my sister, my friend said that the world is full of soul masters!"
"I don't think you're too old, your sister should be quite old, right, how can you tell a cold joke?"
"Don't worry, shopkeeper, my sister is probably too young to figure it out!
"You're still asking me to go out and call one back, big brother, do you know how scarce soul masters are now?"
"I'm sorry, shopkeeper, I don't know the market......"
"Well, I won't tease you, I don't know if you really don't know! Have you ever seen a grain of rice the size of a watermelon?"
"Nope!"
"The current soul master is that rice grain ......"
"You mean, the current soul master is extinct?"
"That's not necessarily, my ancestor is a real soul master!"
"Then it's convenient to ask your ancestor to come out?"
"It's inconvenient! It's been more than 100 years since my ancestor was buried in the ground! Are you going to dig up my ancestral grave or what?"
"Don't be angry, don't worry, you can help me find one!"
"Qian'er, you greet the three guests, I'll go to grandpa and ask about something......"
The woman came in again, carrying a small teapot, and three plates of dim sum were placed on the tea tray, and after putting the dim sum, she refilled more than half a cup of water for the three teacups, and said softly: "I have neglected the three distinguished guests, please wait less......
"Hmm...... Thank you!" is a thank you to the owner for his hospitality.
When I was young, I saw the shopkeeper running in from the backyard and said:
"I've asked my grandfather, and none of our relatives and friends are soul masters! My grandfather said that you are sincerely here to find fault!
The shopkeeper has obviously just taken office and has not much experience in dealing with such difficult guests!
"I really didn't expect it to be this serious!"
"My Qi clan has been from the ancestors down, and no one has learned to cultivate this way, otherwise we wouldn't have changed to selling books!"
Of course Aunt Xue doesn't know, this is your Qi family's family matter! Since the Qi ancestor documented, strict clan rules have been established, and all clansmen are absolutely not allowed to practice soul masters, otherwise they will be expelled from the clan and never enter the ancestral hall genealogy!
This trip scared Dongfang out of a cold sweat, now in this year, is there really so few soul masters?
