Chapter 180: The cheats are returned to their original owners
Shao Xi looked at Lao Wu sitting on the ground, although he looked helpless, but he himself sat on the ground, he was really tired!
No wonder they all say that cultivation can become immortals, just these bull-nosed veterans climb the mountain all day and night, and they can really be as light as a swallow and become an immortal.
"I say, old fellow! Look at you, you don't look like you've been here before! How did you climb up last time? β
Lao Wu ripped off his clothes and showed his chest, and said, "Last time? The last time it was dark, I started going up the mountain, and it was not yet dawn when I got my hands down! How can you climb up at noon like today? Don't say it's tired or not, the heat can heat people to death, and I won't come during the day next time I am killed. β
Shao Xi felt a little puzzled and asked: "The last time you left the grassland, it was still winter, and when you returned to the grassland, it was May, it is said that the first place you went back to the Central Plains was Wulong Mountain, at that time, even if you went up the mountain during the day, it was not as hot as now, right?" β
Lao Wu looked at Shao Xi with an expression of "you know a fart" and said, "Are you stupid?" I'm here to steal, how can I go up the mountain during the day? Are you afraid that people won't see me? Besides, how can a thief start stealing from the door as soon as he enters? Of course, I stole from the south all the way to the north, and if I stole from the north all the way to the south, and then when I go back to the north, won't all the people who arrested me all the way? You're so stupid! β
Shao Xi touched his chin and thought about it, what Lao Wu said was very reasonable, but suddenly reacted and said, "Damn!" You are an expert in being a thief, and I have never been a thief, how can I know so many ways? β
Lao Wu was unhappy when he heard this, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Shao Xi raising his hand.
"Heyββ! Don't speak, I know what you're going to say. Are you going to mention the matter of Qingshan County again? I've told you 800 times, and that time is not stealing, it's chivalrous. β
Lao Wu couldn't bear it anymore when he heard this, and shouted to Shao Xi at the top of his voice: "Do you have a conscience?" Using the skills I taught you to do the same thing as me, you are chivalrous and righteous, and I am a thief? If I hadn't come to Wulong Mountain to steal it, would you have the ability to do it today? β
One sentence scared Shao Xi half to death, and rushed up to cover Lao Wu's mouth.
"You're crazy, aren't you? Shout so loud! Or shout so loudly on Wulong Mountain! Are you afraid that people won't know that you are a thief and stole the treasure of other people's town religions? Why are you so excited? β
was reminded by Shao Xi like this, and Lao Wu immediately realized that he had shouted too loudly just now.
Shao Xi covered his mouth, and he couldn't turn his head back and forth, so he had to "gurgle" and roll his two yellow eyes, wanting to see if anyone around him heard what they had just said.
Seeing Lao Wu's appearance, Shao Xi let go of his hand with confidence and looked at him with a complaining face.
"Okay, okay, I know you're for my good, don't say you're a thief in the future, I'll have you in the future, right? is old, and the anger is still so big. β
"Don't just talk about me, you better think about what you should do yourself! You have learned the unique method taught by others, and these bull-nosed veterans are not as easy to talk as you think. β
This time, Shao Xi was worried again. Oh, yes! I've learned everything, and I haven't gone back, how can I get it if people really investigate it?
When the two of them were sitting here and worried, a young Taoist priest about twenty years old walked out of the gate of Taiqingguan and came to the two of them and bowed his hand.
"The two donors, poor Mu Qingfeng, just heard the two arguing outside the door in the temple, I don't know what happened? Did the two donors come to Taiqingguan to make incense, or to make a vow? β
Being asked by this Taoist priest named Mu Qingfeng, Shao Xi and the others were suddenly a little confused, what they just said wouldn't have been listened to, right? Besides, what are the two of them coming here to incense? Or do you wish to do so? How do you tell someone? You can't tell people you're a thief, and now you're turning yourself in, right?
Shao Xi hurriedly got up and arched his hand and asked, "Dare to ask Dao Chief, can you be in the view of Dao Chang, the head of your sect?" I have something important to ask to see below, I don't know if it is convenient for Sun Daochang? If you can, I hope this Taoist will pass it on. β
Mu Qingfeng also replied: "It's unfortunate that the donor came, Uncle Master is in retreat and cultivation a few days ago, I'm afraid I won't be able to see guests in the near future, and I ask the donor to forgive me." If there is anything wrong with the donor, it can also be explained to the master in the current view, that is, the master of the poor way, Guangmingzi, in fact, it is the same. β
"It turns out that the Daoist is a disciple of Daoist Ye, so the Daoist should be the senior brother of the little Daoist Li Qingxuan?"
Mu Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a smile: "The donor said that he was joking, Li Qingxuan in the donor's mouth is the senior brother of the poor road, although the poor road is a few years older than Senior Brother Li, but the entry is later than that of Senior Brother Li, and the donor knows Senior Brother Li?" β
"Oh, we only met yesterday at the bottom of the mountain. Since Daoist Sun is not in Guanzhong, then Daoist Lao sent a message to Daochang Zhao, and Shao Xi came to ask for a meeting, and there was something important to explain to Daoist in Guanzhong, the matter was very important, and I hoped that Daochang Zhao would be able to see him. β
Mu Qingfeng nodded and said, "In that case, the two donors, please wait, I'll go in and spread the word." β
"There's a chief of labor."
Watching Mu Qingfeng return to the gate with the "Taiqingguan" plaque, Shao Xi suddenly turned around and asked Lao Wu, "I'm about to see the creditor, are you afraid?" β
Lao Wu rolled his eyes, "I'm afraid of a bird!" If you can't talk about it, if you leave, what can they do to me? It's just a bunch of old hens in a nest. β
Looking at Lao Wu's appearance, Shao Xi was also thinking in his heart, if he really couldn't talk about it, just like Lao Wu said, run! They can't even catch up with Lao Wu, so they can't catch up with themselves.
Alas! Back then, he was chased like a wild dog on the grassland, and it seems that this time the Central Plains is no better, and he has not become a street rat?
But now this matter has to be solved after all, it was already ridiculously wrong to steal other people's mental cheats back then, if you don't pay it back, wouldn't it really become a thief? If you make a mistake, you must admit it, and if you are beaten, you must stand upright. As long as it's not too much, even some punishment is a matter of course.
After a while, I saw Mu Qingfeng walk out of the gate of Taiqingguan again and come to the two of them, bowed down and saluted: "The two donors, Poor Dao has told the head of the sect the intention of the two donors, and the head of the sect invited the two donors to speak in the temple." β
Shao Xi and Lao Wu glanced at each other, what should come is always coming, it is better to muster up the courage to face it. So the two got up and saluted Mu Qingfeng in return, and followed Mu Qingfeng to the temple together.
Come to the front of the Sanqing Hall in the view, only to see a rectangular wooden plaque above the tall main hall with the three words of "Sanqing View" written on it, three open six doors, each door is hung with a plaque, respectively write "ten thousand laws return to the sect", "purple gas comes from the east", "the right way is bright", there are several high poles and banners on both sides of the stone road leading to the view gate, are swinging with the wind.
The whole Taoist temple is solemn, solemn and quiet, and it is not like the temple like the sound of wooden fish, draining and chanting.
The two followed Mu Qingfeng into the Sanqing Palace, and saw that the front of the main hall was enshrined in Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Taiqing Daode Tianzun, and a huge mahogany incense case was placed below, and there was a copper incense burner on the case, and the incense was worshipped. Offering incense is "incense to faith", that is, people's sincerity reaches God through cigarettes, the so-called "a pillar of true incense communicates, and the saint is blessed to come".
There are many Taoist disciples standing on the left and right in the hall, and the three people standing at the head of the case are all green robes and cloth shoes, with gray hair, strong spirits, and fairy wind bones. The first Taoist is slightly chubby, with a ruddy complexion, bright eyes, a kind demeanor, and a lofty spirit, and at a glance he knows that he is the person in charge of this view.
Mu Qingfeng led Shao Xi and Lao Wu to the three Taoist masters, and immediately introduced them to the two: "This one is the master of the poor Dao, and the current master of the sect of Taichang is Guangming Ziye who does not leave the Taoist head; The one on the left is an elder in the sect, the poor Taoist uncle Guangchengzi Jin Bulai Daoist; The one on the right is also an elder in the sect, and the poor Daoist uncle Guang Zhenzi Chu does not go to the Dao Elder. β
When Shao Xi heard this introduction, he said directly: "Good guy! Did you brothers discuss this name? One master is not leaving, the other grandson is not there, the latter two are even more exaggerated, one can't get in, the other can't get out, it's really creative. β
Shao Xi took Lao Wu and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said: "In the next Shao Xi, the servant Lao Wu of the same family gave the three Taoist elders a salute. β
The three Dao Masters in front of him returned the salute at the same time, and Ye Buli, who was the leader, shook the dust in his hand, and bowed back: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" The poor road Guangming cotyledons do not leave, and return the gift to the donor. I just heard from the disciples that the donor came this time to tell him, I don't know what is the importance of the two donors who have worked tirelessly to climb this Wulong Mountain and come to me to teach too often? Listen to the poor. β
Shao Xi hesitated slightly, bowed down again and said to Ye Buli: "I have learned too often to be generous and benevolent, kind to others, open-minded, and tolerant of all rivers. Before I say this, can I ask the Taoist chief to promise that no matter how bizarre the things that are said below, how to displease the Taoist leaders, Taichangjiao will not blame the next two, and I am willing to listen to what I said calmly and deal with this matter peacefully. β
"Oh?"
Ye Buli was surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at the two junior disciples standing on his left and right. Both of them also looked at Ye Buli in unison, and the three of them did not make a clear statement after eye contact, and in the end, Ye Buli and Shao Xi had a conversation.
"I often teach people who are cultivators, and they pay attention to peace of mind in everything, and they are not shocked or angry, even if the two donors have had a misunderstanding with the religion before, they only need to explain the reason, and the matter has changed, and the people in the sect will not be retribution, but they will still be kind to others, resolve the misunderstanding with the donor, and deal with it calmly."
I don't know if this is the promise that Shao Xi wanted before? But from the current point of view, these old Taoist priests don't look like unreasonable people, after trying to explain the matter, anger is inevitable, but they will not make any radical moves, right?
"When a few Taoist leaders in Xia Quan agreed to the request of Xia Xia, then I will tell this matter in Xiaxia, and I hope that several Taoist leaders will not be shocked, let alone feel angry, and make amends in Xia here first."
After Shao Xi gave a deep salute to the three Dao Masters in front of him, he took out the book from his shoulder bag that he had collected and cultivated for ten years.
Hold the wrapped cloth bag above your head.
"Come and return it this time."
