Chapter 52: Young Taoist

Chen had never eaten serious food in the first ten years, and at this moment, he carefully tasted every bite of gruel, every bite of green vegetables, and only this kind of thing cooked in the village has fireworks. It's just that Lao Fengshou and his daughter-in-law sat on the side and watched him eat, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and they refused to come over to eat together......

Passing by Zhangjia Village is fate, when leaving, give this Lao Feng some copper coins and food as a reward for kindness.

Lao Fengshou sat on the wooden stool with his hands on his knees, sitting upright, that appearance was a little funny, he suddenly found that his daughter-in-law Alan was staring at the Taoist, he panicked, and lowered his voice and said: "Alain, don't look at it, no matter where it comes from, it's not good to offend the Taoist......"

The daughter-in-law didn't know what she was thinking, she wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, she just nodded.

Lao Fengshou sighed quietly, hoping that this Taoist priest would leave quickly after eating, Zhangjiacun is now afraid when he sees the Taoist priest, it is not as terrible as the mountain spirit ghost Huohuo......

Being stared at by two people with four eyes, Chen Chu couldn't sit still no matter how calm and composed, he coughed lightly, turned his hand and put down a small half-run copper coin on the table and said: "The owner generously gave porridge, he must be a person with a deep fortune, and he has a little heart, and I hope not to shirk." "He's not a prostitute.

Lao Fengshou was startled: "Don't be, don't help it, we countrymen are used to eating coarse grains, these rice grains are collected and specially used by the Taoist leaders, quickly take back the money......"

At this moment, the daughter-in-law who was sitting there spoke a little timidly: "Dao...... Dao Chief, have we met somewhere? ”

Chen Chuchu: "Huh? ”

Old Harvest was frightened: "Don't talk nonsense! ”

The daughter-in-law looked at Chen Chuchu's face and said more and more certainly: "I remembered, on the mountain outside Zichuan County, the big toad essence, and the Taoist chief, you are also there." ”

Chen Chuchu's mind came to mind on the night when he surrendered to Qingwan ten years ago, his eyes looked at Lao Fengshou's daughter-in-law, and he said in disbelief: "You are Xiaolan? ”

The daughter-in-law was overjoyed and said, "I am Xiaolan!" ”

Chen Chu sighed with emotion: "The eighteenth change of the female college, I think you were only fifteen years old back then, but I didn't expect that ten years would seem to be like a makeover, if you don't say it, I really can't recognize ......"

Lao Fengshou looked at Chen Chuchu and then at his daughter-in-law: "You guys, this is ......"

Xiaolan explained: "Father-in-law, ten years ago, in the village where my mother's family is located, there were rumors that the toad immortal asked me to return to the village, you know this, the toad immortal is the Taoist chief's subordinate!" ”

Lao Fengshou's son married Xiaolan as his wife, so he naturally inquired about some things, and he knew the story of the toad fairy.

I thought it was just a rumor from the countryside, but I didn't expect it to be true, he immediately lay on the ground and said loudly: "It turned out that the immortals came to our village, let the immortals eat porridge, I am really guilty!" ”

Chen Chu waved his hand, and the soft wind gently lifted Lao Fengshou up, and said with a smile: "Fate Master, I found out when I entered the village, you seem to be a little afraid of my arrival, I don't know what the reason is?" I've been in retreat for 10 years, and the beard on my face has grown a little bit, but it's not terrifying......"

When Lao Fengshou heard this, his eyes turned red, and he couldn't help crying, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Seeing this, Xiaolan's eyes also turned red, she pounced on her knees and said with a crying voice: "There was a night attack of mandrills in the village a year ago, and chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs were killed.

Just when we couldn't help it, a short Daoist came outside, he claimed to be a Star Picking Daoist, and he had a way to deal with the evil mandrill, but we needed to promise to support him for cultivation. We thought that the offering was to provide food and shelter for the Taoist elders, and we agreed without saying a word.

The Star Picker went to the mountain that night, and the next day he came back with a head that looked like a monkey and a ghost, saying that it was the prototype of a mandrill.

From that day on, he asked us to build a star-picking temple on the high hill east of the village, and asked us to provide us with a hundred taels of silver every month as an offering......"

It seems that when it comes to the sad place, Xiaolan's tears can't stop falling, and she says while crying: "The countrymen don't necessarily earn one or two taels of silver a month, they are all poor, and they all live on the crops in the field, where can I make up a hundred taels of silver for the star pickers......

Seeing that we couldn't make up the silver taels, the star picker said that it would be okay to replace the children without the silver taels, and he couldn't help but say, he robbed my five-year-old child and went up the mountain, and he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and several children in the village have also been robbed......"

Chen Chuchu's brows furrowed into a Sichuan shape: "There is still such a thing of forcible seizure?" He stepped out of the house and stood outside looking east.

Sure enough, there is a Taoist temple on the mountain over there, he doesn't like to procrastinate in doing things, he looked back at Xiaolan and Lao Fengshou in the house and said, "I'll go and see ......"

He slapped a rune paper on his body, his figure gradually disappeared, the space fluctuated, and the invisible sword light flew towards the Taoist temple.

The Taoist temple is built on the top of the mountain, the shape is unique, and there is a welcoming pine at the door.

Chen Chuchu landed at the door and reached out and knocked.

The door creaked open, only to see a short Taoist priest with a face of about eighteen walked out, he looked around and did not see Chen Chuchu's figure, only felt that there was a gust of wind blowing by his side, and immediately raised his vigilance, pulled out a whisk of dust from his sleeve and hit the place where the wind blew: "What person, come out for me!" ”

The dust whistled, but nothing hit......

The young Taoist priest hurriedly walked inside, his intuition was very sensitive since he was a child, although he couldn't see a human figure, someone must have sneaked in.

He walked to the middle of the Taoist temple and opened the lid of the paper-burning stove, and blew hard, and the paper ashes suddenly spread in the air, and vaguely saw a vague figure going to the Taoist temple......

"Stop!"

The five-party pennant flew over, as fast as lightning!

The figure stretched out his hand to catch the broken Lingqi, waved his hand, and the paper ashes in the Taoist temple flew out from the gate, and the figure also showed its true face, a long-bearded Taoist priest......

Chen's initial plan was to find out if the Taoist temple was really as Xiaolan said, if you haven't seen each other for ten years, time will change a lot of things.

It is impossible for him to believe anything because of Xiaolan and Lao Fengshou's kneeling and begging, investigation is the most basic operation, but he didn't expect the little Taoist priest to find out about his existence at once.

Chen Chuchu also got straight to the point: "Be polite, there are two small problems with the poor road, there was a mandrill in Zhangjia Village under the mountain a year ago, but the Taoist friend surrendered it?" The children of the villagers were lost, but the Taoist friends did it? ”

The young Taoist priest's face changed slightly, and then he showed a look of sudden realization, and said, "I see, those mud-legged people have moved to the rescue!" I killed the mandrill and saved their entire village, what's wrong with asking for some payment! They can't pay them, so I'll watch and take it myself, what's the problem...... After all, before the poor Dao slays the demons and destroys the demons, I heard them say that they want to support me! ”

Chen Chu let out a sigh: "You have to take the demon slaying and demon killing as a business, there is no opinion on the poor road, and there is no opinion on asking for compensation, but God has the virtue of a good life, you should not snatch the children of the villagers to go up the mountain!" Hand over the child, Poor Dao is willing to offer three hundred taels of silver in exchange! ”

"Hahaha, kid, it's all here!"

As if he had heard a big joke, the young Taoist priest took out a piece of yellow cloth and rolled it vigorously, threw it on the ground, turned it into a yellow flag, looked at Chen Chuchu with a gloomy face, and said in a throat: "Bullshit has the virtue of a good life in heaven, it's all a lie!" I have personally experienced that in this world, only cultivation is true, and the so-called morality, good and evil are just shackles used to put on the necks of the weak and make them unable to resist! ”
