Chapter 46: Three levels in a row
As soon as Zhao Chuan thought of Zhen Yuanzi, Zhen Yuanzi immediately appeared in front of him, which was really a coincidence.
Zhen Yuanzi hurriedly came to Zhao Chuan, saying that the host was looking for him for something, and turned around and left after speaking.
When Zhao Chuan saw Zhen Yuanzi, he was about to ask him where he was today, why he and Xiao Daotong didn't see you for a day, but this guy left in a hurry after passing a word to Zhao Chuan, and he didn't know if he heard Zhao Chuan's question.
Zhao Chuan and Xiao Daotong returned to the courtyard where they were hosting, and saw that there were three people talking in the house. These three people were the same three people I saw in the dining hall yesterday morning at dinner.
The three of them were obviously very emotional, and their voices were a little loud, and the third uncle Zhao Kai was persuading each other with good words.
Seeing this, Zhao Chuan found a place in the courtyard to sit and wait, while Xiao Daotong stood silently outside the house and waited.
Among the three, the tall, thin man with a sharp mouth and a black beard had a shrill voice, and he said that although Hou Ye's side did not cure the whole thing, we can't run in vain, how can there be anything in the world that makes people in vain?
The fat strong man shouted loudly in a rough voice, arguing that if the Hou Ye didn't give this money, you would have to preside over it! Because it was you Qingfeng Guan who came to us.
The old man shook his head and sighed repeatedly, saying that if he treats people like this, this Hou Ye is afraid that he will lose people's hearts......
The third uncle Zhao Kai laughed with him, and patiently persuaded everyone not to be impatient, no matter what, a few people can come to give me face, this money must be given some, but it is also very difficult at the moment, everyone is not there, I am just a temporary host, I really can't get so much money you want......
The third uncle, Zhao Kai, suggested that they should stay in the temple first, and wait for everyone to come back in a few days.
All three disagreed.
Zhao Chuan saw that they were grinding and chirping endlessly, and his heart became irritable, he circled around the yard, and wanted to enter the house several times but held back.
The old man later said so, your temporary temporary host is also the host, we have other things to go to other places, you can give us an IOU first, and then we will come to ask you for money when we are free in the future.
The third uncle, Zhao Kai, had no choice but to agree, so he wrote a note.
The seven girls came out of nowhere at this time, and suddenly came to the small courtyard of the host to find Zhao Chuan.
Her face was full of red light, she was very excited, and walked into Zhao Chuan's ear and whispered, "I found a good thing, it may be able to crack your sealed acupoint!" ”
"Where?" Zhao Chuan was extremely happy when he heard it.
"Right down there, in the same tunnel I said last night." The Seven Girls whispered.
"What is it?" Zhao Chuan asked excitedly and loudly.
"Shh The seven girls hurriedly stopped and saw three people coming out of the house.
The three people were walking out with a mouthful, and the host was busy shouting to Xiaodao Tong to send off the distinguished guests.
The tall, thin man with a sharp mouth and a black beard and the stout man walked ahead, glanced at the two of them, and continued to walk out the door.
The white-haired old man walked last, and his eyes seemed to be stunned for a moment when he saw the seven girls, and although he turned his head and continued to walk, his steps slowed down significantly.
The white-haired old man took two steps and looked back at the seven girls a few times, and suddenly stopped when he stepped out of the courtyard door, and called out to the two people in front of him.
Zhao Chuan heard the old man and the other two muttering something in a low voice, and then the three of them turned back into the small courtyard and entered the house again.
"We're not leaving, then according to what you said, let's stay with you first, and then wait for the people from the Guanli Courtyard to come back!" The old man said loudly, and the other two echoed and said yes, yes, we changed our minds.
Of course, the host welcomed him, and the little road boy outside the door took the three of them to the quarters in a row, and the three of them left happily.
Zhao Chuan was a little puzzled by the completely different changes of these three guys in a short period of time, and was turning his face to ask the seven girls, but the third uncle Zhao Kai called him in the house and asked the seven girls to go in together.
The third uncle looked haggard, and he looked very different from yesterday.
"Qingfeng is not small, right? Finished reading them all? Seeing the seven girls coming in, the third uncle barely squeezed out a smile, and Zhao Chuan felt that he was laughing and crying.
"Hmm," Zhao Chuan agreed.
"I'm leaving tomorrow, go out for a while, and you stay here for the time being."
Walk? Where to go?
Zhao Chuan stunned the third uncle's unprovoked words.
"You stay here first, and when your master Xiaoyaozi comes, he will explain it to you." The third uncle answered the question.
"If you're gone, I'll leave too." Zhao Chuan said angrily that he didn't want to stay here.
"You can't go, you're here right now." The third uncle had a worried expression, "Your master won't stay in Jiangzhou for too long, and the matter on his side should come to an end."
The third uncle said that he would leave tonight, and told Zhao Chuan not to worry too much about the life of staying in the temple, and said that it had been arranged in the morning.
The third uncle then called Daotong to find Zhen Yuanzi, saying that he had something to go out for a few days, but the Taoist Temple had to be taken care of, and the view could not be left without an owner for a day.
Zhao Chuan was really surprised.
What does this Qingfeng Temple say is also a big view of nearly 1,000 people, although everyone is gone in an emergency for a while, but this Taoist temple host can't be a child's play.
The juniors called him Uncle Silly, and he really lived up to his name.
This Zhao Chuan has been here for less than three days, and he has been promoted to three levels in a row to become the host.
"Let him be!" Zhao Chuan pointed to Zhen Yuanzi and said, don't let the serious Qingfeng Taoist don't need it, let a fake Taoist priest who is named as the host, and don't laugh off people's big teeth when it is passed out?
But the third uncle said that Zhen Yuanzi has another important use, and this host can only be him. said that the host is just a look now anyway, and there is nothing serious to do.
Zhao Chuan thinks about it, now everyone knows that Qingfeng Guan Taoist people have gone down the mountain to Jiangzhou City, no one comes, the incense is gone, and even the bells and drums don't ring the time, this host is at best a housekeeper.
When you preside, you preside, that is, when a few days. Zhao Chuan agreed.
But Zhao Chuan felt very sudden about the departure of the third uncle Zhao Kai, and the third uncle said that this was decided a few days ago, and it was not that you had to leave temporarily.
The third uncle said that the current situation is likely to change greatly, the people in this Taoist temple have gone to Jiangzhou, and there is no one available in my hands, so you will stay in this Taoist temple for a while, and when I come back this time, I will take you to your hometown in the north, and you don't have to ask too much for the time being.
After the third uncle finished speaking, he drove Zhao Chuan away, saying that he was going to pack up and leave.
Let's go, Zhao Chuan feels that he can't do without the third uncle, everyone has their own business. If you go, then you can explore what you are interested in in this view.
Back at the residence, Zhao Chuan asked the seven girls what they were sending down there?
The seven girls said that they will take you there when it gets dark.
After dark, the two changed their clothes, and the seven girls took Zhao Chuan quietly to the back mountain.
Although the mountain gate of Qingfeng Temple is built in the middle of the mountainside, there are many main halls built on the central axis, and the distance between each main hall is still very long, and the last main hall along the central axis is the Sanqing Palace. The Sanqing Hall is close to the top of the mountain, and behind the Sanqing Hall is the stargazing platform, and the stargazing platform is built on the top of the mountain.
At the back of the mountain you must cross the stargazing platform.
Because he was taken around by Xiao Daotong for two days in a row during the day, as the saying goes, three days for arms and two days for legs, Zhao Chuan's legs now feel sore and heavy, and he can't lift them anymore.
Walking to the stargazing platform, Zhao Chuan said that he wanted to rest.
As soon as he sat down, he saw the third uncle Zhao Kai wearing an ordinary gray old Taoist robe, carrying a burden and walking towards here.
Zhao Chuan saw that he was busy and wanted to step forward to speak, but the seventh girl pulled Zhao Chuan to hide in the dark. Zhao Chuan then watched as the third uncle walked alone to the back mountain and went down the mountain.
After the third uncle left, Zhao Chuan blamed the seventh girl for pulling herself to hide.
The seven girls said that do you know where the host went?
Zhao Chuan said that during the day, didn't he say that he would go out for a while? Of course, he quietly ran away from the back mountain.
The seven girls said that you are stupid, you have to go to the back mountain when you run away? It's dark now, and there are not many people in the Qingfeng Temple on this mountain, who are afraid of seeing it?
Zhao Chuan said yes, why did the third uncle go to the back mountain?
The seventh girl said that she didn't know, I saw him go to the back mountain two nights ago, so I quietly followed him, but when I walked to a big rock in the middle of the mountain, the person was gone.
Zhao Chuan said curiously, why didn't you say it earlier just now, I'll take a look.
Zhao Chuan walked out of the stargazing platform and stood on the top of the mountain to look north, but there was still a little shadow of the third uncle.
The seventh girl said that the third uncle may have gone to cultivate, right?
"Cultivation? Where to practice? Zhao Chuan asked.
"Where else could it be?" The Seven Girls said.
"Back Mountain?"
"I don't know if it's right." The Seven Girls said, "There is nothing behind it but stones and trees." ”
"Pull it down, don't sell it, where did the third uncle go?" Zhao Chuan was anxious.
"It should go down there! That is, the hollowed-out underground of this breeze view that I told you! ”
"Didn't you say that there are armor and weapons hidden underneath food and soldiers?" Zhao Chuan asked.
"That's just what I found out at the beginning, and then I found out that there was a hole in it last night."
"Okay, don't talk about it, take me to see it first." Zhao Chuan hurriedly urged the seven girls to lead him down quickly.
The road behind the mountain is not paved with stones, to be exact, there is no decent road, only the small mountain road that some people step on is narrow and steep.
Halfway up the mountain, I found a small pond.
The Seven Girls said this is it.
"In the water?" Zhao Chuan asked, how can there be an underground cave, do you mean that the third uncle walked to a big stone and disappeared?
The Seven Girls said that I couldn't find the entrance to that place, but I found the entrance in this pond, maybe it was a different entrance.
Seven girls said that this pond is very deep, after jumping into the water to sink to the bottom of five or six zhang, there is a big water hole on the north bank of the pond, swim into it dozens of steps to the end to the upstream, climb to the shore after rising to the water surface, it is a big cave. If you go down the cave and go inside, you will see what you want to see.
Zhao Chuan was skeptical when he heard what the seven girls said, he walked around the pond and didn't find anything special.
"Isn't it just a wild pond? Naturally formed, unlike artificially dug ones, is there really an underground hole underneath that you said? Zhao Chuan didn't dare to go down, although he had the breathing exercises taught by his grandfather, and he could hold his breath in the water, but now it was dark, he had no aura cultivation, no night vision, and he couldn't see the direction clearly underwater.
The seventh girl said don't be afraid, just follow me.
Zhao Chuan said that you can also water? Can you hold your breath and walk under water?
The seventh girl said that she would avoid the water, and there was no problem in staying for half an hour.
The seventh girl was about to jump into the water after speaking, but was pulled by Zhao Chuan, "Go on like this?" Don't take off your clothes either? ”
