"Hey, hey, you see the official is here!"

"It's really an official errand!"

"Look at the handsome official at the front, he looks like a big man!"

A group of villagers who had run farther but were still watching were chattering.

Bai Lan walked to the front of the Lu family's high gate and chuckled: "There are still good shows of the squire bullying and bullying here." ”

Yang Yuanwai looked at the group of officials who came, and the young man led by him looked noble, so he restrained his arrogance and bowed: "This son, this is some of the mundane things in our Xiahe Village, and it is natural to repay debts. ”

Bai Lan's demon power turned, and the "official" in front of him scolded sharply: "Presumptuous! A small squire dares to be arrogant in front of my son-in-law? ”

This loud shout contained the terrifying effect of demonic energy, coupled with the oppressive feeling of demonic illusions, which shocked everyone outside Yang Yuan.

Lu Yutang was still in a daze, but his wife Lu Shi took the opportunity to break free from the shackles of the two family members, and rushed to Bai Lan with a plop, crying miserably: "Son! My lord! Please save us! This Yang member is bullying and deceiving my ancestral home, please be the master for us! ”

"!" Yang Yuanwai was so angry that he stepped forward and slapped him.

Bai Lan shook the wooden fan in his hand in the air and knocked down Yang Yuanwai with a "bang", and then flew upside down and returned to Bai Lan's hands.

He stretched out the wooden fan in his hand, and a wooden fan of ancient willow weeping landscape ink painting paper opened, gently shaking the delivery breeze, "How can bullying a little woman be considered to be above board?" ”

Yang Yuanwai fell to the ground and covered his aching waist, and said in shock and anger: "You! You! What are you coming from! ”

Bai Lan chuckled lightly and shook the wooden fan, "The Liu family in the capital." ”

"What? You turned out to be the Liu family in the capital," Yang Yuanwai exclaimed.

The Liu family in the capital is one of the eight great families of the Great Jin Dynasty, and the disciples of the clan are all over the ten states, and the current official department is Liu Yuanshan of the Liu family, so no official dares to offend the Liu family easily.

He himself is just a country gentry, at most he has some blood relationship with the prefect, but he can't afford to offend this behemoth.

Yang Yuanwai endured the pain, stood up with the help of his family, and reluctantly smiled: "That's a faux pas." ”

Bai Lan didn't pay attention to him, but turned around to look at the Lu family's ancestral house, and asked suspiciously: "Lu family? How does it sound familiar? What is the origin of the ancestors? ”

Lu Yutang only reacted at this moment, "Lord Yu, the villain's ancestor is also an official for many generations, and he used to be the Lu family of the Hanmen River, but he fell into the ,...... of the family road."

"Xiahe Lu? It turns out that you are the Lu clan in Xiahe! Bai Lan interrupted him and said with a smile: "Your ancestors have been kind to my Liu family, and since you have met it today, you can't stand by and watch!"

Yang Yuanwai, right? How much money does the Lu family owe you? ”

"This ...... Three hundred taels! Yang Yuanwai hesitated, not daring to ask for a price but telling the truth, for fear of angering the other party.

Bai Lan quietly hooked his fingers, and the "official messenger" beside him said coldly: "This is the silver bill of three hundred taels of Tongji Qianzhuang, what about the debt note?" The official took out a silver ticket from the placket of his chest and handed it to Yang Yuanwai.

Yang Yuanwai got the silver ticket, read it carefully to confirm that it was correct, took out Lu Yutang's father's note IOU, and said with a smile on his face: "Since this is the case, then thank you Liu Gongzi." The villain retires! ”

With that, he left in a hurry with a group of family members.

When Yang Yuanwai left, he also whispered to the family: "Go to the county government and the county town to inquire about the news, and see if there are any big people who want to come to our Qi County." ”

Bai Lan took the arrears and tore them up, and glanced around, none of the villagers who were watching dared to look at him, and walked away one after another.

At the door of Lu's house, Lu Yutang got up with difficulty, and said gratefully: "Thank you for your great kindness!" The villain has nothing to repay, from now on, according to your orders alone, my wife and I will work hard to repay the three hundred taels of silver. ”

Bai Lan shook his head, "No need, your ancestors have been kind to my family, what is this mere three hundred taels of silver?" ”

Lu Shi wept and said: "Engong, you have solved the disaster of our Lu family today, and we will repay your great favor no matter what." ”

Bai Lan smiled, and no longer shirked, "You two are sincere and intelligent, if you support each other to work hard and work hard, the Lu family may not be able to make a comeback!"

I will give you a wooden fan, which can be regarded as feng shui, I hope you can achieve success in the future! ”

As he spoke, he closed the paper and wooden fan in his hand and sent it to Lu Yutang.

"Let's go."

Bai Lan waved his hand, and several officials also lined up behind Bai Lan and walked out of the village.

Lu Yutang's wife, Lu Shi, was sober-minded, and she hurriedly shouted and asked, "Dare to ask Engong's name and surname?" Where is home? So that we can come and report the answer! ”

When Bai Lan heard this, he stopped, and the officials behind him also stopped, he turned around and chuckled: "My surname is Bai, you can call me Bai Gongzi, as for the family, I live on the other side of the mountain." ”

When the words fell, Bai Lan stopped

"Surname Bai?" Lu Yutang was a little puzzled, and asked his wife in a low voice: "Isn't Engong the Liu family in the capital?" ”

Lu Shi was also puzzled, raised his head and looked in the direction where Engong left, but in just a few breaths, he was gone, and only a faint mist in the village filled the front.

Lu Yutang was stunned, stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, "Why is Engong gone?" ”

The wooden paper fan in his hand also fell to the ground and happened to be opened, and the paper was still painted with the scene of the ancient willow weeping pool, but there was an extra white snake several zhang long on the edge of the pool!

"Oops!" Lu Shi suddenly realized, and knelt down in the direction where Bai Lan disappeared, "Thank you Liu Xian!" Thank you for your mercy! Save my Lu family from fire and water. The folk girl will never forget the kindness of your old man in this life. ”

Lu Yutang reacted when he heard this, his eyes were glazed, and he said incredulously: "This... Is this really a willow immortal apparition? ”

The Lu family was freed from the suffering and strife of the sale of the house, and at this moment she also showed her weak side, she said with tears in her eyes: "Xianggong, you have forgotten that the ancestor once saved a white snake that had cultivated to perfection!" Didn't we have a special entrance to Liuxian Hall in our house? The snake fairy is called the willow fairy in our radius of a hundred miles!

Moreover, Engong also deliberately said that his surname is Bai, the white of the white snake! ”

Lu Yutang patted his head, "Yes!" Engong said that the family lives on the other side of the mountain, and the other side of the mountain is still a mountain, isn't that in the deep mountains?

I really met the manifestation of Liu Xian, Liu Xian bless! My Lu family, worship Liu Xian forever from generation to generation, and never forget the great kindness! ”

At this time, neither of the excited two paid attention, and in the ink painting of the wooden fan that fell on the ground, the white snake suddenly disappeared, turning into a clear breath and integrating into Lu Yutang's mind.

Lu Yutang's mind was cloudy and he fainted.

Outside the entrance of the village, Bai Lan slowly left with a few officials, he looked at the "few people" behind him, and said with a smile: "You have worked hard today." ”

At this time, an old woman happened to pass by with a basket on her shoulder, and when she saw the battle, she was so frightened that she hurriedly quickened her pace to walk.

Bai Lan said loudly: "This grandma, what is in your basket?" ”

The old woman shrank in fright, but she didn't dare not answer, so she could only stop and say cautiously: "This nobleman, the basket is filled with the old woman's own native chickens, and more than a dozen eggs. The old woman is old and can only survive on these eggs and a few hens. Muddy things in the countryside, please don't be surprised that your clothes have been dirty. ”

Bai Lan smiled when he heard this: "It just so happens that I am a little sleepy and hungry. Grandma, you sold these eggs to me, right? ”

"Ah, this ......," the old woman wondered, "but these eggs are all raw, if the nobles do not dislike them, I will take them home and cook them and send them over." ”

"Hehe, no need." Bai Lan took out a piece of gold from his sleeve and gave it to the old woman, "This basket can also be sold to me by the way." ”

The old woman looked at the gold nugget in her hand and said in shock: "Nobleman, this is not so much money!" The old woman can't scrape together enough money to find you! ”

Bai Lan took the straw basket and said with a smile: "Grandma will call me a noble person when she meets me, so why not make this basket of eggs more valuable?" ”

The group walked away leisurely, leaving the old woman standing alone in a daze, how could she feel like a dream? Can a basket of eggs be exchanged for a piece of gold?

The old woman looked up again, and at this time, Bai Lan and the others had already left the scope of the village, walking on the country road, the sun was shining, but there was no shadow of anyone on the ground, only the shadow of a snake!

The old woman's eyes twitched in fright, and she didn't dare to look at it again, so she hurriedly turned around and quickened her pace and walked back home without raising her head once, until she returned home without anything to do, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and she took out the gold nugget pinched in the palm of her hand, and it was still there.

As soon as she looked up, she saw the statue of the willow fairy enshrined in her house, and the sky that had been gloomy for most of the day finally had the sun come out, illuminating the small courtyard of the farmhouse and the statue of the willow fairy, which looked quite strange.

The old woman was busy offering three sticks of incense to the statue of Liu Xian, and wept and said: "Thank you Liu Xian for your mercy, my wife and I can still meet you to send money to you alone!" ”

……

On the other side, Bai Lan walked to the side of the river, saw that there was no one around, and with a wave of his sleeves, nine officials turned into their original appearances, and nine snakes were coiled on the ground.

Bai Lan picked up the basket, gently poured a basket of eggs, and said with a smile: "You are also tired, eat some raw eggs to fill your stomach."

When I was as old as you, I had to climb up a tree and steal birds' eggs carefully. ”

Nine snakes writhed and opened their mouths to swallow the eggs raw.

……

Yang Yuan's mansion came from an angry shout.

"Which of you stole Lao Tzu's silver ticket?" Yang Yuanwai stood in the atrium and angrily scolded the more than thirty servants kneeling in front of him.

"The silver ticket of three hundred taels, which I personally put in the placket, how could it have disappeared out of thin air? That's the silver ticket of the Beijing Tongji Daqian Village! If you can't find it tomorrow, I'll sell all of you and sell them to Yazi and Qinglou! ”

The crowd was terrified and cried out for injustice.

At night, Yang Yuanwai hugged his thirteenth aunt and fell asleep after hard work.

In the middle of the night, he felt that his body was slippery and greasy, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Don't make trouble, Xiaocui." I'm going to be tired of you, sir. ”

However, the slippery and greasy feeling did not disappear, but went up to his neck, the slightly cool touch was soft and delicate, which made him a little interested, "Xiaocui, since you are not honest, don't blame me!" ”

After that, he opened his eyes, and he couldn't see clearly in the dark night, he reached out and grabbed his neck, but he touched a strip that was very smooth and soft, not like a human body.

Yang Yuanwai's brain cleared up in an instant, and he was about to throw it out, but at this time, the strip-like object suddenly bit his neck, and the painful Yang Yuanwai screamed and shouted: "Someone!" Help me! ”

He threw the strip into the distance, crawled away, and vanished.

Aunt Thirteen was awakened, she hurriedly got up and lit the light, and servants gradually came outside the door, "Master, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I... I... By something... Biting your neck, hurry, go get a doctor! ”

As soon as the words fell, his head sank and he fainted.

A few days later, everyone in Qi County spread that the notorious Yang Yuanwai was bitten by a poisonous snake and cured, but he was half paralyzed and could only spend his next life in bed!

For a while, everyone applauded, and the people thought that a bully like Yang Yuanwai should be punished.

……

In the Valley of the Snake King, Bai Lan spit out the moonlight, and the wisps of Taiyin and Shaoyin Qi were integrated into the body, strengthening the demonic power.

It wasn't until the second day that the sky was white, and then he stopped practicing and went back to the cave to sleep.

I slept until three poles above the sun, found some hares at random to fill my stomach, and then lazily crawled into the sun to bask in the sun, and silently recited the moral scriptures by the way.

As the cultivation time went on, Bai Lan felt more and more that the Tao Te Ching and the Buddhist scriptures were very useful.

As far as the cultivation of transfiguration is concerned, it is a false scene conjured with the characteristics of demonic power, and the stronger and deeper the demonic power, the more real and flawless the illusioned scenery is.

Bai Lan's Dao heart has been baptized and nurtured by a hundred years of scriptures, and illusion can deceive his eyes, but it can't deceive his heart.

His telepathy can always peek through the essence of illusion and see the true appearance.

Qing Cang has been practicing transfiguration recently, but he can't fool him at all.

Furthermore, scriptures and sermons have a great effect on the cultivation of the state of mind.

It is rumored that there are five immortals in the world, and there are many demons in the Qinan Mountain Range, but none of them chose to take the path of the immortal family.

One part is because of the lack of demonic power, there is no means such as hiding spirits in front of people, and the other part is capable but does not dare to contaminate the incense cause and effect.

In the incense, there is faith and thought, which is infinitely wonderful, but it also contains countless greed and desires of human beings, and monsters who are not in a good mood can't restrain themselves at all, just like Hu Qiniang, even if she is a demon who transforms, she doesn't have the idea of being a fox fairy.

The fox clan is naturally kind and affectionate, but the mind is firm and difficult to hold, and the fox heart is difficult to rest, once it is lured into the world, the material desire will only sink into it, and the road is difficult to find.

Bai Lan's body is a snake with an indifferent temperament, and he has the wisdom of his previous life, and he has been chanting sutras for a hundred years, upholding his own heart and protecting his own self, these incense desires cannot affect him at all, but will only temper his mind and sharpen his Dao heart.
