Chapter Seventy-Three: Actually, I also know a little bit about Taoism
Late night City God Temple!
There was silence!
Lin Ye looked at the deep City God Temple, and there was a faint bad feeling in his heart.
It turned out that Lin Ye didn't care about it before he practiced, but after embarking on the path of cultivation, the cultivator's intuition often represented signs.
"You can't ignore it, if you really encounter danger, just hide back to reality."
Looking at the secluded City God Temple, Lin Ye finally walked in, this time he did not climb over the wall, but directly pushed open the temple door of the City God Temple.
The temple door was pushed open, and Lin Ye's expression instantly became embarrassed.
Compared to the darkness and silence seen outside the temple, the moment the door was opened, the lights were bright.
Eight Yin cha stood on both sides with spears in hand, in front of the City God's Hall, Yang Chenghuang was sitting on a chair looking at him with a smile, and behind Yang Chenghuang, the two Yin Cha grabbed Dao Hai who was bound.
Dao Hai's body was bound by iron chains, and the whole person stood there sluggishly as if he had lost his soul.
Rao is Lin Ye is thick-skinned, and his face is a little red at this moment, it is too embarrassing, he can now deduct a villa with his thumb.
Yang Chenghuang looked at Lin Ye with a playful expression, holding a fragrant tea in his hand, and said: "When you moved the statue of the official, the official had already sensed it, and was about to come back, but when he met Master Daoyuan, he invited me to be a guest at Miaoying Temple. ”
Gan!
Lin Ye looked at Yang Chenghuang, and couldn't help but scold his mother in his heart, he and Senior Brother Daoyuan still felt a little sorry for this one, but as a result, people knew everything in their hearts, and they were acting in the temple.
I can't help but talk about the case, and I guess I can't help but be happy to play myself as a monkey and don't want to stop.
"Lord Yang, just say, how to solve this matter?"
Between the lightning and flint, Lin Ye also thought a lot.
This person is in the mood to act in the temple, which means that there is still something to talk about this matter, otherwise if he is really angry, he can be pointed out in the temple, and he will turn his face directly.
"You broke into the city god temple of the official, injured the subordinates of the official, and tried in vain to steal the city god book, if it wasn't for the official to keep a back hand, this city god book was lost, that is a major crime, what do you think the official should do to you?"
Yang Chenghuang shouted: "According to the law, this official can press your soul to the underworld to be punished!" ”
Facing Yang Chenghuang's stern appearance, Lin Ye was very stable in his heart, this is a negotiation skill, scare it first, and then make a request.
"Sir, let's be honest, what do you want us to do?"
Yang Chenghuang: ......
Yang Chenghuang didn't expect Lin Ye to be so alert and react so quickly.
But it doesn't matter, it's still in his control after all.
"Give you two ways to choose, the first one is that your senior brother and brother were pressed to the Yin Si by my soul......"
"My lord, you should intuit the second one."
Lin Ye interrupted Chenghuang's words, he has heard too much about this kind of negotiation, give you two ways to choose, one life and one death, he doesn't want to be scolded for the number of words.
"The second way, what do you two say about the city god book, the official is very clear, the soul of Ye Zhiyuan, the official has already recruited it for you, the official has only one request, you must take care of this matter to the end, and you must go up to heaven to listen!"
Listening to Chenghuang's words, Lin Ye smiled, and he suddenly had a feeling that he had been calculated.
This Yang Chenghuang said that he seemed to know Ye Zhiyuan's affairs very well.
He seems to be involved in the officialdom and the battle for the city god.
The most important thing is that I don't seem to have any other way to choose.
"You are curious about Ye Zhiyuan's matter, you are already stained with this cause and effect, and the path that this official is letting you choose now is also to let you understand this cause and effect, and there is no loss for you."
It makes sense.
If that's the case, why don't you just say it directly, and you have to beat around the bush to do this.
Lin Ye pursed his lips, he thought that the city routine was deep, and the people in this other world were simple, but he didn't expect the road in the other world to be more slippery.
"What secrets does Ye Zhiyuan have, adults might as well say it bluntly."
"This official doesn't know, you can handle this matter by yourself, and now you can leave with your junior brother and Ye Zhiyuan's soul."
Yang Chenghuang's figure disappeared, including those yin differences, and the entire Chenghuang Temple was left with Dao Hai and Ye Zhiyuan who came out from behind the statue.
"Please give me justice, sir."
Ye Zhiyuan walked out and bowed to Lin Ye, the corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched, looked at the statue of the city god, and secretly raised a middle finger.
……
……
"Daigo, bring a few bundles of straw over there, the floor is a little hard."
At the foot of the mountain, in the temple of deserted land.
The old Taoist priest commanded the little Taoist priest to hold the straw, and then lay on it, stretching comfortably.
"Master, since you don't sleep comfortably here, why did you refuse the invitation of the City God to stay just now, then the City God invited us to stay in the City God Temple."
Dawu was very puzzled, the city god temple looked very good, but the master was unwilling, and went out of the city overnight and finally chose to spend the night in this deserted temple.
"Dawu, for the teacher to pass on your trick today, there is no free lunch in this world, these city gods, they were also human beings before their deaths, and they are more shrewd than ordinary people, dealing with city gods, be careful of being calculated, do you remember Ye Sheng who came to burn incense in our Taoist temple."
"I remember that Mr. Ye opened a private school in the county town and taught many students, and every time he would come to our Taoist temple to burn incense, it was to pray for his son in his hometown."
Dawu still has an impression of that Mr. Ye, because every time Mr. Ye comes to the Taoist temple to burn incense, he will ask him if he needs to read at a young age, and he also gave him several books to read.
"That Ye Sheng has a big cause and effect, and when he goes to the Taoist temple to incense, there is a Yin Si ghost behind him, thinking that the teacher will be curious and then contaminated with this cause and effect, but who am I as a teacher, how can I be here, I will accept the incense money, and Ye Sheng's affairs are not asked."
Lao Dao is very proud, don't care which yin ghost is behind him, he won't take this stubble.
I don't know if any nosy person will be pulled into the pit later.
……
……
"Lin Gongzi, I woke up this time with the city god, and I realized what happened to my body, and I hope that Lin Gongzi will make the decision for me."
Lin Ye took Daohai and Ye Zhiyuan back to his house, Ye Zhiyuan looked sad and angry, and told what happened to him.
Ye Zhiyuan was young and eloquent, and his fame moved the entire Poyang County, and many dignitaries often invited him to the banquet, and later he met a Li Yuanwai.
Li Yuanwai is also a literati, and every time he is invited to a banquet, it is a good wine and food, and Ye Zhiyuan is also familiar with this Li Yuanwai, and he often goes to Li Yuanwai's house as a guest.
When he entered the county government for the first time to participate in the scientific examination, Ye Zhiyuan did not expect to meet Li Yuanwai in the county town, and Li Yuanwai invited him to participate in the banquet that night, but Ye Zhiyuan did not refuse, because he was confident in his literary talents, and the township examination was not a problem.
"Lin Gongzi, I woke up with Lord Chenghuang, and I remembered the situation after the banquet that day, after the banquet, Li Yuanwai said that he wanted to test my literary talent, and gave me a few questions, and I answered them on the spot, and those questions were the questions of that scientific examination."
Lin Ye's eyes sank, and Daohai's mouth opened slightly......
"It's a pity that on the second day of the imperial examination, I faced the same question, but I couldn't write the answer of that day again, and now it seems that my memory of that day was sealed, and even the exam was affected."
"After I fell off the list, I returned to Poyang County, and Li Yuanwai was very comforting to me, even more enthusiastic than before, and entertained ...... delicious food every day."
When he said this, Ye Zhiyuan was a little embarrassed, Lin Ye's expression did not change much, and it was normal for the young man to be carried away by others.
In three years, most of Ye Zhiyuan was in Li Yuanwai's mansion, and Li Yuanwai persuaded him, saying that some of those real great writers were officials in the court, and they were all attached to the landscape, and he was willing to fund the entanglement for Ye Zhiyuan to travel in the mountains and rivers, as long as Ye Zhiyuan did not go to the test for fame, but Ye Zhiyuan refused.
Then there was a repeat of history, and in the second imperial examination, Ye Zhiyuan fell off the list again.
"Lin Gongzi, I just learned today that Li Yuanwai is the city god of Poyang County, please administer justice for me."
I'll preside over your mother's slap.
Lin Ye really wanted to give himself two slaps, when it came to Chenghuang, why was he so curious in the first place, he thought that there would be merit and drilled into it, is this merit so difficult?
Obviously, Ye Zhiyuan should have been admitted to fame, but Li Chenghuang did something, but I don't know why Li Chenghuang did this?
"Senior brother, Li Chenghuang is a yin priest, and this yang world has nothing to do with him."
Dao Hai was a little puzzled, but Lin Ye had a guess in his heart.
At the same time, he also understood why Yang Chenghuang wanted to set up this bureau, this was a bureau against Li Chenghuang.
"Let's go find Senior Brother Daoyuan first."
Lin Ye took Dao Hai and Ye Zhiyuan's soul to Miaoying Temple, and after a quarter of an hour, Dao Yuan, who knew what had happened, also frowned, and this matter in front of him involved two city gods, so it was definitely not simple.
"Senior Brother Daoyuan, Senior Brother, no matter what conspiracy they have, then what Li Chenghuang did was wrong first, we only seek justice for Ye Zhiyuan."
Dao Hai couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to, Lin Ye and Dao Yuan glanced at each other, how could things be so simple.
"Senior brother, I'll ...... this time"
"Stop, Senior Brother Daoji, this city god does not belong to our Buddhist system, and it has nothing to do with Miaoying Temple if you want to sue."
As soon as Dao Yuan saw Lin Ye speak, he immediately interrupted, Lin Ye smiled and said, "Actually, I also know a little bit of Taoist things, and I will listen to this book as well." ”
Daoyuan: ......
Hearing this, Dao Hai looked at Lin Ye in shock.
"It's a bit miscellaneous, before I became a lay disciple of our Miaoying Temple, I was still a registered disciple of Qingfeng Temple."
Dao Yuan looked up at the sky, what was the abbot blinded by in the first place, why did he accept such a person.
