The interior of this small and unknown village is more prosperous than expected, and the streets are sparsely lined with people setting up stalls. Zhang Jiao and Yu Ji each held a small doll and walked towards the center of the village.

Yu Ji had planned to come here to find some cars, so he also looked around while walking, but unfortunately, there were so few things sold in this small village and town. After walking all the way, I almost arrived in front of the dock fort, so I bought some five or six clay pots and seven or eight pairs of straw sandals and distributed them to everyone.

The front of the dock fort was heavily guarded, and some government soldiers and family members were patrolling back and forth, and the two of them walked out from inside. A bareback man walked in front with a bent body, followed by a richly dressed middle-aged man.

As soon as the man came out with the middle-aged man, he saw Yu Ji and Zhangjiao walking in the street. Immediately shocked, he pointed at Yu Ji and said to the middle-aged man: "Master, that is, he pointed Wu Laohan to death with one finger." ”

"Got it, go ahead." The middle-aged man's face was as usual, and he waved his hand to rebuke the man. Then with a smiling face, he saluted and walked towards Yu Ji and the others.

"I didn't know that the immortals were coming, so I didn't come out to greet them, which was rude." The middle-aged man had a sincere attitude, and while making a "please" gesture to the dock fort, he continued: "Under Chen Hong, isn't he the owner of Chenjiazhuang in Wuyang County, today is my family's fine monarch in the pen, and the immortals are here, making my Chen family shine, and also let my son have a lot of immortal energy, I Chen is a great honor, if the immortals do not dislike me and other rural people are vulgar, please also come in and take a seat." ”

Chen Hong's face is full of spring breeze, and his behavior is very respectful, which is difficult for people to feel disgusted.

Yu Ji was also silent, and led everyone into the dock fort.

Chen Hong led the way in front of Yu Ji, and said: "Previously, I was not strict in my family, and I was out of evil slaves, and I offended the immortal gods, and I was ashamed in Xia, if the immortals were in need, they could be ordered to do so." I will do everything in my power to compensate the immortals. ”

"We need some wagons, or donkey carts and mule carts." Zhang Jiao was stunned, and as soon as he heard Chen Hong say this, he couldn't help but preemptively say it. I want to knock on the bamboo pole of the landlord's old wealth.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. If you have any other requirements, please feel free to bring them up. Chen Hong didn't care about Zhang Jiao's interjection, he was very polite.

"That being the case, then it will be troublesome to Master Chen." Yu Ji glared at Zhang Jiao, and politely returned the salute to Chen Hong.

"I have just asked my subordinates to clean up two private rooms and more than a dozen houses, because this frame needs some time to prepare, if the immortals don't give up, they will live in my Chen family today." Chen Hong smiled. So arranged.

Chen Hong's arrangement was very appetizing to the old man Ji, he first arranged a lot of meals for the accompanying women and children, and even sent a few cotton clothes to the dolls in the team. Then Zhang Jiao and Yu Ji were invited to a banquet in the lobby.

Yu Ji no longer showed himself as an old man, and changed back to his original middle-aged appearance, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and an extraordinary look, which caused Chen Hong to sigh with emotion. Shouting immortals.

The way rich people eat makes Zhang Jiao very uncomfortable, and there is a long case in front of one person, and all kinds of delicacies are lined up on the case. There was even a fat girl in her teenage years standing next to Zhang Jiao waiting for food. The girl's eyes were always staring blankly at the sheep's hooves gnawed by the horns. He also swallowed his saliva secretly.

When Zhang Jiao was looking at Yu Ji, Yu Guang noticed this girl. So he turned his head and winked at the girl, and quietly asked, "Do you want to eat it too?" ”

The girl was deserting, thinking about which adult's unfinished sheep's hooves she could gnaw when she was cleaning up the scraps. Hearing Zhang Jiao's words, she was startled. Hurriedly about to kneel.

"Don't move!" Zhang Jiao hurriedly stopped her. Then he quickly grabbed a handful of jerky on the case and wrapped it in a piece of silk cloth on the case that cleaned his hands. Then he handed it to the girl.

"Thank you, Childe." The girl was overjoyed to see this and whispered.

As soon as the girl took the wrapped meat, she saw a subordinate in the courtyard running over and shouting, "It's born! Mrs. gave birth and is a son, congratulations to the master! Congratulations, sir! ”

"Quick, bring the child to me to see. No, Cai'er, you go, you go and hug. Chen Hong, who was on the head of the seat, was extremely excited when he heard this, and stood up as soon as he stood up, his face flushed, and pointed to the fat girl beside Zhang Jiao.

"Ahh Yes, sir. Cai'er's face turned red and she was extremely nervous, holding a cloth bag of preserved meat in one hand and blocking it with her sleeve. With the other hand, he lifted his skirt and ran to the backyard. I forgot to put on my shoes when I went out.

Soon the girl came in with a crying doll wrapped in a brocade quilt, leaving a line of earth-colored footprints on the smooth wooden floor of the house. When he walked to Chen Hong, a few pieces of dried meat fell from his sleeves. The little girl was frightened, handed over the little doll, and quickly knelt aside, not daring to move.

Chen Hong didn't care about anything else, hurriedly took the child, lifted the wrapped brocade quilt, and fiddled with the little guy's work with his fingers.

"Wow...... Wow! The little one cried even more happily.

Chen Hong laughed, wrapped the doll again, and walked to Yu Ji like a treasure.

"Please also bless the immortals." Chen Hong looked excited and looked at Yu Ji.

"Hahaha, this little guy is tiger-headed, full of heroism when he cries, and he will definitely be a good man in the future. The old man liked it very much when he saw it. Yu Ji said as he took out a piece of rune paper, and then took out a red pen from his sleeve and wrote and drew on the paper. It seems to be a peace charm.

"Did you ever name your little doll?" Yu Ji asked as he stuffed the talisman paper into the baby boy's brocade quilt.

"I haven't named it yet, and I still ask the immortals to give it a name." Chen Hong was very happy, and bowed his head to Yu Ji with a smile.

"I often call myself the master of the palace, since this doll is related to the old man, I will call a single name and a palace word." Yu Ji obviously had no resistance to the child, and said as he reached out and hugged the doll.

"Chen Gong? Good! Good! Good! It is also a blessing for me to be a child. Chen Hong was very happy, and looked at Xiao Chen Gong in Yu Ji's arms lovingly.

"You, you dare to steal meat to eat. What a guts! The big maid next to her screamed fiercely at Cai'er.

"I gave it to her." Zhang Jiao stepped forward and helped the fat girl up.

"Even if it is appreciated by the little immortals, it doesn't matter, hahaha, Cai'er brought my son with meat, presumably my son will be a person of fine clothes and jade food in the future, hahaha." Hearing the movement here, Chen Hong stroked his beard, looked over here, and continued: "Cai'er has merit this time, and since she has been blessed by the little immortals, she must also be a blessed person." From today onwards, let's go to the inner courtyard to take care of my wife's daily life. And all the people of the inner court were given three days of meat. ”

Chen Hong had already learned about Zhang Jiao in the process of chatting with Yu Ji, and at this moment, he slapped Zhang Jiao without a trace, which made Zhang Jiao very useful, his little face turned red, and he secretly rushed to Cai'er, the fat girl who looked like him, and winked his eyes.

Cai'er hurriedly thanked the master, saluted Zhang Jiao again, and exited the lobby and walked towards the inner courtyard.

After being full of wine and food, Chen Hong led Yu Ji and Zhang Jiao to deal with the knight, and under Yu Ji's stopping, he did not kill the knight. Then Chen Hong took the two of them to stroll around Chenjiazhuang.

"This river was originally caused by the reckless thief usurping the Han Dynasty, and the sky was angry, and the rain was unknown, so that the Yellow River was diverted and flowed through this place, and then gradually left the river." Chen Hong took the two of them everywhere to point out and introduce. The attitude is very respectful.

"What the little immortal said. It will be ready tomorrow morning, and a cart of cloth, grain, oil, and ten stones of corn will be prepared. The immortals go to the giant deer, and they always need these on the way. Chen Hong said.

"I think you are a kind person, and this is just the food." Yu Ji flicked his hand, waved his robe, and a lot of herbs and grains appeared out of thin air in an open space by the river. And he took out some silver and gold from his sleeve.

"What are you?" Chen Hong was shocked by Yu Ji's methods, and at the same time expressed puzzlement at his behavior.

"Even if the old Taoist asks you to do one thing, you can build a big grass hut near Guanlu. The grain is boiled into porridge and distributed to the displaced people passing by. Let the herbs be boiled into a decoction and distributed to them. Also, don't overpress your subordinates. Take in as many as you can as many as you can, and try to give them some hope of survival if you can't. Yu Ji said, pointing to the grain.

"Immortals are merciful! But..."Chen Hong looked embarrassed, as if he had something to say.

"How?" Yu Ji asked puzzledly, he felt that if he gave Chen Hong materials, he would be able to do it easily.

"The immortals are merciful and bless the common people, which is naturally a good thing, but my Chen family does not dare to do this in vain......" Chen Hong said embarrassedly.

"What's the harm in doing something good? How can you not dare? Yu Ji's face was pale, don't look around, he was a little angry, and even Zhang Jiao glared at him with disgust.

"The immortals and the little immortals atone for their sins, and listen to the details below." Chen Hong's face turned a little pale.

"It's not that I didn't do it, but I did this kind of thing before, and I was warned by the county government, saying that my Chen family was raising the villagers, bewitching the people, and had bad intentions. And those foreigners do not have a household registration here, and they only dare to secretly take in some of them. Chen Hong was very embarrassed to explain, he felt that the immortals in front of him were a little uncannibalistic.

"Then let's do these things in the name of the old way, if there are displaced people, you can say that it is my Taiping Dao's help, so that people often miss the grace of the Taiping Dao." Yu Ji took out a flag, on which there were only three broken straight lines, which was the image of a kun hexagram. He also took out a wooden plaque, which was engraved with the four characters of Taiping Daoren. "If the government comes to ask and shows this sign, you can be said to have been entrusted by the Taiping Daoist, and the Taoist has already traveled the world after giving him grain, rice and herbs. Is this possible? Yu Ji looked at Chen Hong and asked.

"The immortals are merciful, and we will always be grateful for the immortal number." Chen Hong knelt on the ground and received Tai Ji's flag and wooden plaque with both hands. I expressed my willingness to be entrusted.

That night, Yu Ji instructed the people of the Chen family on how to cook medicine, and then gave a lot of instructions.

"Alas... I don't know how happened to my father, have my two younger brothers grown taller? Before leaving, the little sister was favored as a maid by the Guo family, a big family in the county, and I don't know if I left home...... "Zhang Jiao sat by the river at sunset, looked at the situation in Chenjiazhuang, and began to miss his family again.

The golden red sunset shone on the melancholy boy's face, making him look half brilliant and half gray.

"Little... Little immortal, the lord sent me to ask you to go back to the house for a banquet. A timid voice called him from behind.

Zhang Jiao turned his head, his whole face was facing the sunset, he took a deep breath, laughed again, and looked at Cai'er. His smiling face looks particularly bright in the sunset.

"Just call me little brother, you are as old as my little sister, I am not a few years older than you." Zhang Jiao smiled, his head resting on his head and his hands and walked straight to the dock fort.

"You're so polite, you're an apprentice of an immortal, I heard that you and that immortal are going to build a shed there to help the homeless?" The little girl looked at Zhang Jiao's smile, she was not so restrained, and she recovered her heart, but she still didn't dare to listen to what Zhang Jiao said.

"Yes." Zhang Jiao was very proud, showing off to the little girl, his eyebrows fluttering.

"You're such a good man." The little girl ate this very much, and looked at Zhang Jiao with admiration.

"I want to help them too, but I don't have enough food to eat, so I don't know how to help." Cai'er's thinking was very jumpy, and she looked a little melancholy.

"When I become a housekeeper, I will wait for the salary, and I will help when the time comes!" The little girl thought of a solution in a blink of an eye, clenched her little fists, and jumped up.

"Cai'er, why do you say there are homeless people?" Zhang Jiao muttered.

"Cai'er doesn't know very well, and the adults say it's because of the famine." The little girl shook her head.

"Then why do people wander in years when there is no famine?" When he was about to get to the door of the dock fort, Zhang Jiao smiled and turned to ask the little girl.

"Huh...?" It's almost home, and the little girl is obviously a little absent-minded.

"Because in many cases, we humans ourselves may be the most terrible famine." Zhang Jiao didn't care whether the little girl heard it or not, and whispered to himself as he stepped into the dock fort.
