From Qingkou Town to Wuji Mountain, about 100 miles away, the official road has not yet been opened. Zhao Ran traveled very quickly, crossed mountains, crossed rivers and ditches, walked almost in a straight line, and rushed to the foot of Wuji Mountain in the afternoon.

It seems that there was just a heavy snowfall yesterday, and it was thickly covered on the mountain road of Wuji Mountain, and when Zhao Ran arrived, the fireworkers of the courtyard were cleaning the snow on the mountain road, and it was also very lively.

Zhao Ran saw Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai at a glance, each of them holding a big broom and sweeping the snow along the stone steps to both sides.

Zhao Ran is now the temple of Junshan Temple, a figure at the level of the eight deacons in Wuji Academy, and those who have heard of him know that he also has an identity as a monk in the pavilion.

The housekeeper's clean room was Zhao Ran's classmate who studied scriptures together in the scripture hall back then, and he recognized him at a glance, came over to say hello, and briefly talked about two sentences.

"You are busy with you, I just have a few words to Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai. ”

"Okay, Senior Brother Zhao...... Zhao Miaozhu has something to do, although the words are enough. Do you need to go up and see the brothers? The Board of Directors and Supervisors has not yet returned. ”

"Next time, I have something to do today, and I will go back to Junshan soon. ”

Jingfang Jingtou didn't bother to go up, stood at the bottom stone steps of the mountain road, and shouted: "Jiao Tan, Zhou Huai!"

The two looked up and looked down, stunned for each other, and then went down together, past many fireworkers who were clearing the snow, and walked directly in front of Zhao Ran.

Seeing Zhao Ran, the two were very embarrassed. Four years ago, Zhao Ran was driven by Dong Zhikun to the non-existent Junshan Temple to be a temple that no one was very optimistic about.

Zhao Ran didn't say anything in or out of his words, he just mentioned it casually, but neither of these two people had an interface, so Zhao Ran just gave up.

After the two of them stayed, they were never deliberately suppressed, whether it was Dong Zhikun or Zhang Ze, they really didn't pay attention to little people like them, but it was extremely difficult to make any progress. Until now, the two are still one in the water room and the other in the clean room, and there is no change.

But this is also normal, most of the fire gong monks in the Taoist Academy have come over like this, and when the ten-year fire residence period expires, they can resign and return to their hometowns and live a good life.

It's just that what they didn't expect was that the small Junshan Temple actually flourished, not only in Guyang County, but also in the entire Long'an Mansion.

Zhao Ran even turned into an immortal master practicing in the pavilion, and his voice was shocked.

The two didn't know how to open their mouths, but they just hugged the big broom and said, "Temple wishes ......"

Zhao Ran smiled and asked, "I seem to remember, you have been doing Huoju for almost ten years, right?"

Jiao Tan sighed and said, "It's been nine years in a blink of an eye, and it's time to go down the mountain and return to my hometown next year." ”

Zhou Huai also said: "I am two months later than Senior Brother Jiao. ”

Zhao Ran asked, "What are your plans after you resign?"

There was a little confusion in their eyes, and they didn't know how to answer for a while.

After a moment of silence, one said: "Go home and ...... the book"

The other said: "Go home and do business with the elders in the family......"

In the jungle of the ten directions of the Daomen, most of the fireworkers have no chance to be punished, and after the ten years expire and make contributions to the peace and wealth of the family, they can only choose to return to their hometowns.

In the past ten years, those who know how to drill camps, mix well, travel widely, and have a wide range of hands, and when they go back, they are relied on by the clan; the second-class ones can accumulate some family money, and the Taoist sect also supports them to set up another door to separate their families; those who do nothing usually feel confused and uncomfortable except for mixing a talisman for themselves.

Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai belong to the last situation, and the uncertainty of their future life positioning has led to their confusion. Just like Lin Shuangwen, a fireworker in Xizhenwu Palace, although there was no shortage of food and clothing after returning home, he still came to Junshan to join Zhao Ran.

Zhao Ranyin said: "You probably know my situation in Junshan, which has been a great improvement compared to when it was created. When I entered Wuji Academy, I was taken care of by the two brothers, and now I have some ability, and I can do a little bit of my best. ”

The two of them immediately listened intently, full of anticipation.

"I have two suggestions, one of them is that you continue to work in Wuji Academy for ten years, and if you want to be an official, you will take the Wenshu exam, and you will have no problem taking the county exam and the government exam, and then I can't do anything about it. Or if you want to buy land and start a family, or want to make a living, I will also find a way to deal with you......"

"What about the second option?"

"Second, if you don't want to leave the Daomen, go to the pawn house to resign, although the contract was signed for ten years, but one or two years in advance is nothing, I know that every year there are people in Wuji Courtyard waiting for the number of fire workers, you are making way for others, and it is too late for the house to be happy. After resigning, he came to Junshan to find me, but he could only continue to be a fire dweller, and then find a way to be punished in a few years. ”

After listening, the two hesitated for a while.

Seeing that the two of them couldn't make up their minds, Zhao Ran said again: "The fire residence of Junshan Temple is different from other places, and it is to really do things. But this matter is not in a hurry, go back and think about it carefully, and figure it out and directly ask for resignation to Junshan. It doesn't matter if you don't want to enter the Dao Gate again, you will still be good friends in the future. ”

Everyone's creation opportunities are different, Zhao Ran can only talk about this step, Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai have already missed an opportunity four years ago, I don't know if they can grasp it this time.

Zhao Ran didn't stay too long in Wuji Courtyard, and rushed back to Junshan after saying what he had to say. Although he has only been away for less than a month, it makes Zhao Ran feel like a world away. Before he went, he never thought that he would be able to achieve his goal, even ten days ago, he was almost thinking about abandoning his cultivation and starting over with the Louguan Sect's own exercises.

When he left, Junshan was just a thin layer of snow, but when he came back, he was already covered in snow, and the mountain was covered with snow. Zhao Ran is very satisfied, which indicates a bumper harvest in the coming year.

Zhao Ran entered the Jade Emperor Hall and found that there were several people in Junshan praying for incense, but there was no one in the hall, not only Jin Jiu was not there, but even Lin Shuangwen and Qu Fenghe were not there, and he couldn't help but be a little angry, and said in his heart, these guys, life is just a little better, so they are starting to slack off?

According to the rules of Junshan Temple, Guan Er and Lu Jin are responsible for the safety and inspection of the Junshan area, and Zhong Saburo often travels to and from various villages on weekdays, playing the role of transmitting and distributing people's feelings, and it is normal for them to be absent. But Jin Jiu, Lin Shuangwen and Qu Fenghe, the three who have studied the scriptures, all have the duty of respecting pilgrims, and if no one is there at this time, it is a dereliction of duty.
