Chapter 103: Villagers Complain
Early the next morning, when he woke up, Xue Zhenye was refreshed.
At this time, the sky was bright, Xue Zhenye found a well in the palace to get clean water, and after washing, he first practiced pile skills, and then practiced boxing and swords.
When the morning sun crossed the eaves, there was a commotion outside the Linshui Palace. The door opened from the outside, and several disciples of the Linshui Palace pushed the door in with laughter.
Seeing Xue Zhenye, the disciples of Lushan were slightly stunned, and immediately gave their hands as a salute. Xue Zhenye returned the salute, and then Wu Zi ran the Cold Moon Sword in his hand, and slowly cast the True Martial Dan Sword.
Dan Sword is the core swordsmanship of Zhenwu, which can not only cooperate with the operation of Zhenqi, but also attack and kill the enemy. It's just that the Dan Sword must be able to cooperate with the flow of the True Qi, and outsiders like the disciples of Lushan can't learn the true law even if they see the shape.
Several disciples watched for a long time, and when Xue Zhenye accepted the move and slowly breathed it out, one disciple couldn't help but say, "Daoist Xue, your swordsmanship is so slow, I'm afraid that someone will hit you on the head with a stick as soon as you make a move."
Xue Zhenqi smiled and said, "It's hard to say, only with swordsmanship can hit the poor Dao, I'm afraid there are very few."
The disciple pouted and said, "The Tao grows such a big cowhide, I don't believe it."
"If you don't believe me, let's try."
The surrounding Lushan disciples coaxed one after another: "Ding Fa'an, go and learn from Daoist Xue." I always hear you talk about family martial arts on weekdays!"
"Senior Brother Fa'an, don't lose the face of Linshui Palace."
This Ding Fa'an is only slightly older than Xue Zhenyi, and it is when he is young and vigorous, where can he stand the pry of his senior brothers. Immediately found a short stick, copied it in his hand and said, "Okay, then ask Daoist Xue for advice. I didn't take advantage of Daoist Xue, so I responded with this stick, so as not to hurt Daoist Xue by mistake."
"Okay." Xue Zhenye simply put his sword into the sheath and held it in his hand and waited for Ding Fa'an to step forward.
Nading Fa'an has been practiced seriously, and walks in a circle in a posture, changing the short stick in his hand back and forth.
Xue Zhenye looked interesting, thought about it slightly, and felt that what Ding Fa'an made was probably a trick of the Southern Fist.
Carved boxing has long been divided into north and south, the south boxing heavy punch, the north school pays attention to 'hands are two doors, all rely on feet to beat people,.
Ding Fa'an saw that Xue Zhenye was standing with only his sword raised, as if his whole body was full of flaws, so he immediately shouted and hit with a swing of his club. Xue Zhenye turned sideways slightly, the scabbard in his hand adhered up, took his move, turned his strength, and immediately took it around.
Ding Fa'an immediately sensed that something was wrong, and when he wanted to pull back the short rod, where could he still draw it back? Xue Zhenye moved slightly, the scabbard slightly exerted force, and Ding Fa'an immediately stumbled and stumbled on his leg, so that he could hang a dog and eat.
There was a coax around them: "Senior Brother Fa'an, is it okay?"
"Every day, the cowhide blows through the sky, and the hands are strained."
Ding Fa'an's face turned red: "I...... I didn't pay attention, not this time!"
After that, there was another shout, and the short stick hung in the wind and crackled again and again. Xue Zhenye saw that this Ding Fa'an should use a knife technique, so that most of the generals would be cracked and slashed.
Xue Zhenye made a few moves, and the long sword came out again, entangled with the short stick twice, and slipped abruptly, and the scabbard was pointed at the tiger's mouth in his right hand. Ding Fa'an was in pain and immediately lost the short stick.
Xue Zhenye accepted it when he saw it, put away his sword and retreated, and said with a smile, "How? My slow swordsmanship may meet the enemy?"
Ding Fa'an was also a bachelor: "Xue Dao's long sword technique is mysterious, it's my clumsiness."
….
At this moment, the door of the main hall was pushed open, and Chen Liulang walked out shirtless and scolding: "Selin Niang, early in the morning, noisy and shouting, turtle body is born, marrying Wen worm, you are a few dead in the street!"
"Master!"
"Master!"
Chen Liulang rubbed his eyes, and then he caught a glimpse of Xue Zhenye standing on the side, and when he was about to put away his swearing, he coughed and said, "It's all ...... Go and sweep, and don't wait for the pilgrims."
A cadre of disciples was ordered to scatter birds and beasts.
"Haha, Xue Dao grew up so early?"
"Compassion," Xue Zhenye said with a smile, "Master and Poor Dao are both cultivators, and they can become friends with each other in the future."
Chen Liulang's heart was overjoyed, he touched his head and laughed, "Eh, Xue ...... Daoyou is quite angry with me. This and this...... Xue Daoyou rested well last night?"
"TOEFL, everything is fine. It's Chen Daoyou...... Hearing that Chen Daoyou had given up his residence to Poor Dao, Poor Dao was really uneasy, so why don't Poor Dao go to a nearby village to rent a room today......
Chen Liulang was anxious: "No! Xue Daoyou doesn't treat me as a fellow believer? Since Xue Daoyou has placed an order in Linshui Palace, how can there be any reason for Daoyou to go out and rent a house?"
Xue Zhenye insisted: "Then you can't occupy the magpie's nest, I think Chen Daoyou must not have a good rest last night."
But no, Chen Liulang was sleepy-eyed, and he almost couldn't straighten his waist when he woke up. Now it's less than April, and it's cold in the mountains, so where is the floor of the hall for people to sleep on?
Chen Liulang rubbed his old waist and thought for a while, then said, "It's easy to do, I'll ask the disciple to clean out another room later." I don't have many houses near the water palace, but there are many houses."
Seeing that the other party said this, Xue Zhenye accepted it from the good flow. The two of them talked for a while, and then they saw a huge black shadow turn out of the backyard.
Xue Zhenye fixed his eyes for a moment, and then remembered his mount.
The wild boar spirit caught a glimpse of Xue Zhenye, got up and ran over with four hooves, snorted twice and began to hug the grief: "Master, I have been hungry all night, and I have a cool breeze all night, can I eat?"
"This ......," Xue Zhenye began to scratch his head.
This waterfront palace is not big or small, and it has been built for some years. Ordinary repairs have to rely on donations from the villagers, and in the past, the incense money was barely enough for the palace expenses, where is the surplus money to feed such a big wild boar essence?
This rammed goods are one stone of japonica rice a day, but I am afraid that ordinary large households cannot afford to feed them.
Xue Zhenye looked at Chen Liulang, Chen Liulang's face was red, and he didn't dare to accept it indiscriminately. Since he heard about the daily food consumption of this rammed goods last night, Chen Liulang has been in a bad mood, and he dreamed that Linshui Palace was eaten by this rammed goods and closed the door last night.
I heard Xue Zhenye say: "I still have to bother Taoist friends, I am a newcomer to the poor road, and I don't know where to buy japonica rice." As he spoke, Xue Zhenye handed over a silver ticket: "I also ask Daoist friends to help buy some rice and grain......
Chen Liulang wants to be a face-saving person, where is he willing to accept it? Immediately said: "Daoyou is such an outsider, but a wild boar essence, I can still afford to feed it in Linshui Palace......
At this moment, I heard a female voice shouting from far and near: "Master, don't slap your swollen face and become fat, that rammed goods for two days and one stone of japonica rice, and gnaw on rhizomes every day, but I'm afraid that I can't afford to feed it if I sell it in Linshui Palace, and I can't accept it!"
As soon as the two of them turned their heads, they saw Lin Jiugu coming in.
….
The wild boar spirit Bian Zhuang snorted, "It's good that I wasn't bewitched by the surname Lin, otherwise wouldn't I be hungry?"
"Aunt Jiu, why did you come back again?"
Ignoring Chen Liulang, Lin Jiugu stepped forward and snatched the silver ticket from Xue Zhenyi's hand, took it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, and said strangely: "I inquired last night, and the rice shop in the city can redeem the silver ticket...... Little Taoist, I have accepted the silver ticket, and I will find someone to buy it when I turn around."
Chen Liulang was angry: "Ninth Aunt, you ......."
"What about me? There are only a few taels of silver left in the palace, and the rice grain has not been purchased for the next month, do you and I know?"
Chen Liulang's face turned red and he looked at Xue Zhenye uneasily. Xue Zhenye smiled and said with relief: "In my generation's cultivation, people are not informal, but Chen Daoyou is too outside."
"This ...... Hey, it's really hard to beat a hero for a penny."
Chen Liulang, who felt embarrassed, said a few words and left in a hurry, afraid that he would be embarrassed to see Xue Zhenye again in two or three days.
Lin Jiugu glanced at Xue Zhenye meaningfully, and chased after Chen Liulang. After a while, Lin Jiugu came to Xue Zhenye with a large sea bowl.
Half of the rice and half of the dishes in the bowl, Lin Jiugu handed the bowl over and said, "Taste my craft."
"Thank you, Aunt Jiu." Xue Zhenye took it over, tasted a few bites, and felt that the taste was not bad. When I turned my head, I saw Lin Jiugu squatting there and looking at herself with one hand on her cheek.
Xue Zhenye felt strange in his heart, and said in his heart that it seemed that he was looking for a son-in-law for his third sister, and it was obvious that this woman had taken a fancy to her.
Thinking so in my heart, Xue Zhen
He didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, so he just stuffed his head and got up. The wild boar spirit on the side swallowed saliva, but he didn't complain.
After eating and drinking, Lin Jiugu took the bowl and said quickly, "I'll go buy rice and grain in a while, and then I'll go home." Little Taoist, if I bring my third sister, how about you marry my third sister?"
"I have a senior sister."
Lin Jiugu pursed her lips in disbelief: "I don't believe it, it's so mysterious...... Princess, how can Jin Zhi Yuye become a sister-in-law?"
"It's Kun Dao."
"What's the difference? I don't believe it anyway. You wait, I'll bring my third sister back in a month at most."
Lin Jiugu didn't wait for Xue Zhenye to reply, turned around and left.
Xue Zhenye sighed secretly in his heart, what a sin, this woman is in a hurry, no wonder she runs away from marriage, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to marry in the future with such a temperament.
Before noon, a few carts and horses came from outside, unloading a large amount of rice and rice grain, and Lin Jiugu also bought firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the hundred taels of silver tickets were spent cleanly.
Chen Liulang couldn't hold his face again, and quarreled with Lin Jiugu, but he was suffocated by Lin Jiugu again, and went back to the main hall to sulk.
Lin Jiugu won the quarrel, and immediately left triumphantly, never pestering Xue Zhenye again.
The wild boar essence Bian Zhuang was hungry for most of the day, and immediately opened a bag of japonica rice and chewed it.
Xue Zhenye was dumbfounded, pointed to the pig's head and said, "This is pork, you also eat pork?"
Bian Zhuang said confidently: "I am not my descendant, and I have never practiced and have no spiritual wisdom, how can I be regarded as the same kind? They are not of the same kind, and they eat and eat."
….
Xue Zhenye was terrified in his heart, the secret path was only afraid that in the eyes of the Dao Ascendant, he was so ordinary that he was not the same kind of person?
Xue Zhenye had been practicing in the back mountain for more than three years, and he chatted with his ancestor to seek truth from the truth. Xiang Qiuzhen once said that cultivation is for longevity, not for the sake of cultivating a ruthless and unrighteous stubborn stone. As Quanzhen is afraid of going the wrong way, it is up to Wang Chongyang, Quanzhen Seven Sons, down to the current Quanzhen Seven Sects, there are those who have attained the Tao for a while, but there are no descendants who have ascended to the shadow.
There is no shade, so there are no charms and Jiao in the truth, only redundant rituals.
It is a pure heart and few desires, and it is by no means ruthless and desireless. Secretly alerted, Xue Zhenye no longer paid attention to the rammed goods, he was a monster cultivated by beasts and beasts, where would he guard humanity?
After noon, pilgrims in Linshui Palace successively offered incense and prayed for blessings. Several disciples welcomed Chen Liulang out and ushered him in.
An old woman brought her grandson over to cry, saying that her grandson had eaten unclean things and had diarrhea, and begged Chen Liulang for treatment.
Chen Liulang immediately ordered someone to bring a bowl of water, pinched the recipe, recited a mantra, burned the talisman water, and let the naughty boy drink the talisman water, and the naughty boy's stomach stopped in a moment. The mother-in-law did not hesitate to kowtow, trembling and rummaging to find a piece of broken silver and offer it.
Chen Liulang is kind-hearted, and when he looks at the woman's clothes, he knows that his family is poor, so he only refuses to accept it. The mother-in-law cried for a long time, and then she thanked her and left.
Xue Zhenye watched from the sidelines, and when Chen Liulang burned the talisman and turned into water, he vaguely glimpsed a cloud of qi enveloping Chen Liulang.
Xue Zhenye had a slight realization in his heart, this Lushan witchcraft is only afraid that it is all based on ghosts and gods, and his own cultivation is really nothing.
When the twilight was four, Xue Zhenye made a slight calculation, and the incense obtained from the Linshui Palace today was only afraid of three or four hundred copper coins. After inquiring with Ding Fa'an, I learned that the average daily routine is about the same, and he can get about ten taels of silver in a month.
The daily purchase expenses of this Linshui Palace, ten taels of silver, are already a bit tight, plus the purchase of charms and magic materials, it is simply beyond their means.
Xue Zhenye sighed slightly, and said that the life of Linshui Palace was not easy. Nading Fa'an disagreed, "If there is so much money, no one will come, Min Di is already poor, and the people have no money to spare, and my master has always sold half and half gave away."
"What about the renovation of the Linshui Palace?"
"Own large donations...... Well, Master's practice of opening the altar can also collect some books." After a pause, Ding Fa'an said again: "It's a pity that Linshui Palace is not as good as Fanglin Shengjing now, otherwise there will be more pilgrims."
"Where is the Blossom Grove Resort?"
"Yuedi Yingde, where the altar of Gao Liulang is located.
」
Xue Zhenye talked with Ding Fa'an for a long time, but learned a lot of useful information. Now Lushan has a vein of red heads and black heads standing side by side, and the red heads are more powerful because there are Gao Wulang and then Gao Liulang.
Ordinary Dharma services invite red-headed mages, and only funeral parties invite black-headed mages. Of course, it is not absolute, and now Mrs. Jiao also has a funeral business, which has led to more and more tension between red heads and black heads.
After two days like this, Xue Zhenye was commensurate with Chen Liulang as a Taoist friend every time he met him, and Chen Liulang put down the mustard and became familiar with Xue Zhenye again.
It was just after noon that day that a steward came to the door with his servants. The young son of the old man Huang in the city accidentally fell into the water and died, and he offered twenty taels of silver to ask Chen Liulang to open the altar tomorrow.
Chen Liulang took the money and responded in one bite, Xue Zhenye wanted to see the Western scenery, and immediately said: "Chen Daoyou, Poor Dao is quite curious about how to open the altar in Lushan, I wonder if Poor Dao can follow and wait tomorrow?"
Chen Liulang was quite refreshed and said, "What's so difficult about this? Fellow Daoists will follow me tomorrow."
At that moment, Chen Liulang greeted his disciples and instructed them to prepare for the opening of the altar tomorrow. At this time, Xue Zhenye realized that Ding Fa'an was actually a boy.
Mrs. Lushan taught a maid to be a servant, which can not only help the maid divination, but also lead the gods to the body.
Ding Fa'an was only eighteen years old, and he was born a head shorter than Xue Zhenye, thin and small, Xue Zhenye really couldn't think of the situation where this person attracted the gods to his body. So he fixed his eyes and watched, and vaguely glimpsed that this person had a lot more points on his body than the rest of the disciples. Could it be because of this?
Just thinking about it, he saw a black shadow flash at the door, and when he turned his head, he saw Bian Zhuang's ramming thief head thief coming in.
Xue Zhenye frowned: "Evil animal, where did the wild go?"
The wild boar spirit snorted, "Master, the small one is just eating in all directions."
Before the words fell, a sudden noise came from outside the palace, and then I saw more than a dozen villagers rushing in with hoes and flat poles.
The leading old man caught a glimpse of Chen Liulang and shouted: "The mage is not good, there is a wild boar Jingjin Village who arched the old sow of the Liu family, I will chase all the way, and the wild boar spirit has actually entered the Linshui Palace!"
Xue Zhenye held his forehead with his hand, he was simply faceless, and he couldn't wait to draw his sword and unload the rammed goods into eight pieces!
A gourd is not a scoop
