Chapter 314: Immortal Water
An hour later.
The villagers rushed to the Taoist temple one after another, and even Wu Weng and his son also came.
Today, Master Zhou and the eldest apprentice are not in the Taoist temple, only Yingbao and the second senior brother in the temple, and of course, Xiaodouzi and his sister Cuilan.
Sakura took out a booklet with a story she had written in charcoal.
Because of the urgency of writing, the handwriting is a little sloppy.
Wu Yi asked curiously, "Little Master, what did you call us for?" ”
Sakura Bao said solemnly: "I suddenly received an oracle last night, and I wrote it down this morning, and now I am calling you over, just to tell you the content of the oracle, well, it is about the legend of Shiquan Cave." ”
The villagers all opened their mouths wide and looked at the little doll standing on the steps in amazement.
Even Zhang Min turned his head to look at the little junior sister, not knowing what kind of moth she was making trouble with.
Ying Bao coughed lightly and began to speak: "In fact, the water in the Shiquan Cave is made of the tears of the Nine Heavens Xuannu, she is sympathetic to the suffering of the world, so she opened up a fairy cave here, as long as people are dedicated to goodness, they have not done heinous deeds, drinking the water here can drive away evil spirits and cure diseases, and live a long life." ”
"Really, really?" The villagers were a little unconvinced, but they were faintly looking forward to it in their hearts. "Can the water of the cave really cure diseases and drive away evil spirits, and live a long life?"
Sakura nodded and added: "Of course it's okay to be good, but it's hard to say about the wicked." ”
As long as there are doubts, she guides them to the cave to explore the secrets, and I believe that many people cannot understand why there are two large blooming peonies in the cave.
Even if the master saw it, it would surprise him.
"That... Can my old cold leg be cured? An elderly villager asked expectantly.
Sakura scratched his forehead and hesitated: "Well, I don't know, why don't you go to the cave and get a scoop of water to drink." ”
Most of the old cold legs are caused by rheumatism, even if he is allowed to drink Wuding Zhi, it is estimated that it will not be good for a while.
But in order to convince the villagers that the water in this cave is magical, this step must be taken.
The elderly villagers were just about to go to the stove room to get something to fill the water, when they saw several young men rushing out, went to the Taoist temple stove room to get a bucket and a water scoop basin, and ran to get water again.
After a while, the water was fetched.
Sakura went to the bucket, took a look at the crystal clear spring water, inadvertently brushed his sleeve over the bucket, picked up a gourd scoop and stirred it in it, scooped out a scoop of water and handed it to the old villager.
The old man took it with trembling hands and drank the whole scoop of water in one gulp.
After drinking, I still touched my stomach, and I always felt very comfortable.
The rest of the villagers also came over, looked the old man up and down, and asked, "How is it?" How do you feel? ”
The old man smiled and said, "I suddenly feel energetic." ”
With his words, the villagers suddenly turned their eyes to the bucket of water, and their eyes burned.
Seeing this, Sakura quickly said, "Young people don't need to drink it, leave this bucket of water for older people to drink." ”
As he spoke, he motioned to the second senior brother and asked him to come over and divide the water.
Zhang Min had long been curious, and he had the heart to taste it, but the little junior sister was watching, so he had to give the water to the old and weak in the village.
"I, I'm going to drink too." A yellow-faced, thin-skinned man looked at Zhang Min pleadingly.
Zhang Min glanced at the little junior sister and saw that she didn't object, so he scooped a big scoop and handed it to him.
The man drank the water in one go, and at the end he tilted his neck and poured it into his mouth, making sure that he couldn't drop a drop, so he handed the water scoop back to Zhang Min without finishing it.
In this way, the bucket of water and the basin of water were divided cleanly.
But there were also those who didn't care, and one of them was skeptical of Sakura's words: "Little master, this stone cave existed earlier, why don't I know that the spring water can cure diseases?" ”
Everyone looked at Sakurabo. "Yes, little master, how do you know that this spring water is magical?" It doesn't seem to make sense based on her words alone.
"You can't be tricking us into offering incense to the Taoist temple, right?" Someone started to speak out.
Sakuraho: "Since you don't believe me, let's go back." She didn't want to waste any more words.
Doing this by myself is just to find a way to get rich at Master's request.
If these people don't want to cooperate, she can't help it.
Wu Weng glared at the villager: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute, when did Master Zhou let you come to worship the incense?" ”
The man hung his head and said no more.
Sakura Po thought about it and decided to make it clear now, saving them from being suspicious.
But she's not going to tell everyone.
So he said to Wu Weng and Wu Yi: "Grandpa Wu, you come with me, I have something to say." ”
Wu Weng and his son Wu Yi followed Yingbao to the main hall.
It is said to be a hall, but in fact it is a hall, in which there is only an incense case and a few futons, and there is not even a chair.
Several people sat cross-legged on the futon, and in front of the Sanqing ancestor who was offered on the incense table, Yingbao told his plan to the Wu family father and son.
"A load of water sells for a consistent amount of money?" Wu Yi thought he had misheard.
Sakura Bao: "Well, the water in this stone cave is fairy water, and the money for selling it is not much, and those families in the city will spend five or ten times in order to buy the cold fragrant snow on the plum blossoms, but we will sell it consistently, and it is already very cheap." ”
Ordinary people will not buy this water, and it is only those big families who will pay for it.
Wu Weng's eyes burst into light: "So, the little master is telling that story for us today?" ”
Ying Bao glanced at him and nodded: "If I don't say that, how can you explain the origin of this water to others when you go to Fucheng to sell water tomorrow?" ”
Those rich people in the city are not stupid, why should they spend the usual money to buy an ordinary load of water?
It's different to crown a fairy water, according to her expectations, it will be no problem to sell a load of water for two in the future.
"Good! That's great! "Zaoshu Village and the village of the two surrounding villages have discussed it many times, but they have never made up their minds to flee to the south.
No matter what, this is all their own roots, and if they can survive a little, who wants to flee to other places?
Sakura saw that Muramasa and his son had no objection to this transaction, and decided to send the first batch of spring water to Fucheng tomorrow to sell.
Of course, for the sake of safety, the four of my masters and apprentices also have to follow.
It is said that the second senior brother Zhang Min's home is in Fucheng, and he can go back to see his family this time.
Early the next morning, Wu Yi, the village leader, borrowed a donkey cart from somewhere and took two villagers to Shiquan Cave to get water.
They scooped up a total of ten buckets of water and put them on the donkey cart, and put two buckets on Master Zhou's carriage.
After scooping up the water and about to leave, Ying Bao suddenly said to the second senior brother: "Second senior brother, you said last time that you put something in the stone cave, and now that there are many people, you might as well go in and take it out for me to see." ”
Zhang Min patted his head and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes!" I do have to take it out. ”
As he spoke, he beckoned Little Bean to go in with him, and brought a torch with a wooden stick and weeds.
Because he hid things so deep that he could not find them without torches.
took off his shoes and carried them in his hands, and before wading in, Zhang Min also said to the little junior sister: "I'll go in and knock a stalagmite for you, it's beautiful." ”
Sakura nodded: "Okay, be careful." ”
