The Young Man in White Chapter 4 Come Out, Gold

As the old saying goes: sincerity, gold and stone are open!

Although he was ruthlessly rejected by Chen Yijian, Wang Xuance did not appear to be discouraged. On the contrary, it inspired his unparalleled desire to win, and he came down from Langke Mountain all the way. Wang Xuance has never stopped chattering, what is full of flattery, kind words and temptation, pretending to be a grandson, it is endless. All made Chen Yijian wonder if this thing was a real Taoist priest.

In this regard, Wang Xuance himself not only did not have a trace of consciousness, but also said very solemnly that he was definitely a Taoist priest, a Taoist priest with a good heart and no desires, who only pursued the Great Dao. But before Chen Yijian could refute, he immediately resumed his obscene expression and continued to enlighten Chen Yijian step by step: "Brother Chen, you have to think so." Although this material is very rare, it is not a rare treasure. Besides, you're not a refiner, so it's a big obstacle to keep such a thing on you. Why don't you find a half-refiner and sell it to him at a high price? When the time comes, let alone such a piece of broken iron, even if it is the best fine iron, then why buy as much as you want. ”

Chen Yijian stopped, turned his head to look at Wang Xuance, and said with a smile: "I think it's too much of a loss for you to be a Taoist, so let's change careers and do business in the future." ”

After speaking, Chen Yijian continued to walk forward, ignoring what Wang Xuance said. This made his mouth dry, and he thought that he stopped because he was moved by what he said, and Wang Xuance, who was waiting for him to nod in anticipation, couldn't help but be a little shocked. Fortunately, he had already made up his mind in his heart to learn the firm spirit of the ancients to the end, so that Chen Yijian was moved by his own will.

With a chic shake of his head, he tossed aside a strand of hair that had fallen out at will. Wang Xuance continued to spit at the stars and said: "Let's not care if we want to change our careers in the future, why don't you two make this matter clear first, and then let's talk about it." Do you think that by persuading you to buy that piece of black iron so bitterly, I am deliberately digging a hole for you? Then you are wrong! And it is a big mistake, and I am not afraid to tell you in the open air that I am completely for your own good.

Let's not talk about whether this iron belt will get in the way on your body, but let's just say that you are now carrying a broken stone on your back, and on your shoulders you are carrying a rotten ding that the people used to pickle pickles. Don't you think this affects your temperament very much? What kind of people are we, we are cultivators with supreme supernatural powers, but we are handsome young men in the prime of life. Who knows how many fairy heroines there are secretly, and the little daughters-in-law and old ladies covet us. So, we have to pay attention to our image at all times. ”

Wang Xuance swallowed his already dry mouth, and continued to say energetically: "Let's put it this way, if one day your brother Chen is walking on the road, and suddenly a stunning fairy floats down from the sky and tells you that she admires you very much and wants to tie the knot with you and spend a hundred years together." Could it be that after listening to it, you have to put the stone on your back and the big ding on your shoulder on the ground first, and then pat the dust on your hands before talking to her?

Chen Yijian laughed and said: "What you said seems to be very reasonable, but the master is willing to carry a broken stone on his back and a rotten pickled cabbage, if you don't accept it, you will bite me!"

The laughter was hearty, and it spread throughout the entire Rotten Keshan.

The ascent is fast, the descent is faster.

When Wang Xuance finished his tirade, the two of them had already walked out of the fence mountain and came to the Wuxi stream at the foot of the mountain. Looking at Wang Xuance, whose lips were dry but still full of energy, Chen Yijian pointed to Wuxi in front of him and said, "Why don't you go and drink saliva first, and then let's find a place to sit down and listen to you talk slowly?"

Wang Xuance snapped his fingers, and his mouth was full of meaning. The man had already come to Wuxi, lay on the bank and cocked his buttocks, and drank the water in large gulps.

As soon as Chen Yijian wanted to find a clean stone to sit on, he saw that on the path leading to Fenghua Town, there were more than a dozen people walking quickly towards this side at this time. Among them, a middle-aged man with an obese and short stature and wearing an official uniform walked in the front. Maybe it's because he walks far and in a hurry, and from time to time I see him reaching out to wipe his sweat on his forehead. In the back, everyone is dressed in the costume of a servant, wearing a big hat and a long knife at his waist.

When Chen Yijian saw them, the group of people obviously also saw Chen Yijian and the others. At the moment, the pace is not slow, so I deliberately speed up a few points. Three steps and two steps, almost Wang Xuance, who had returned, stood in front of Chen Yijian together.

The leader first smiled politely at Wang Xuance, and then asked Chen Yijian respectfully, "May I ask if this immortal master has just passed by this town, Fenghua Town?"

Chen Yijian was happy, thinking to himself, how could it be that every time he encountered such a thing, those officials would come out afterwards? But today he was in a good mood, and after listening to Wang Xuance's old woman-like chatter, it seemed quite good to change his taste and listen to something else. So he nodded at the man and said, "Yes, I don't know what this adult is looking for me?"

Where did the man dare to claim to be an adult in front of Chen Yijian, and hurriedly shook his hand and said: "The immortal master has won the award, and the disciple has just heard the people of the town talk about the deeds of the immortal master, how can it be a wonderful word." Although the disciple is a mortal, he has been studying the books of sages since he was a child, and he is determined to work for the welfare of the people of the world in the future. By chance, the disciple saw the appearance of an immortal in a book. All of them are 90,000 miles in the sky, and the sword subdues the devil in the world. But whenever there is injustice in the world, there will be immortals to settle it. Since then, the disciple has admired the immortals in every way, and only hates himself for being a powerless scholar. Otherwise, the disciple will definitely give up the sand on his head and go to the famous mountain and river to find the trace of immortals. ”

Speaking of this, the man continued with some embarrassment: "Therefore, I came to disturb the immortal master recklessly. I also hope that the immortal master will not blame, and let the disciples respect their modest efforts, do the love of the landlord, and wash the dust for the arrival of the immortal master. ”

After speaking, the man did not forget to bow deeply to Chen Yijian and Wang Xuance.

Chen Yijian didn't rush to answer, and pretended to think deeply. It wasn't until Wang Xuance, a Taoist priest on the side, whose eyes were about to squeeze into fish whites, that he nodded steadily and agreed, and followed the middle-aged man back to the town.

may be related to outsiders, and on the way, Wang Xuance did not talk endlessly to Chen Yijian on that piece of black iron. didn't even talk to Chen Yijian, but walked directly to the middle-aged man. As he walked, he smiled and said to the man: "This lord, the poor Taoist temple is full of heaven, and the earth pavilion is round, although it is the appearance of wealth and nobility. But there is a faint black line in Yintang, presumably there have been a lot of unsatisfactory things for adults recently, especially the house has been a little restless recently, right?"

Although the man did not know about Wang Xuance from the mouths of the people in the town, seeing that he was with Chen Yijian, and he was a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe, how could the man dare to offend in the slightest. At that moment, he told Wang Xuance about some of the things he had encountered in these days.

It turned out that the man's name was Li Shang, and he was the magistrate of this Fenghua Town. Since he came here to take office, he has always worked diligently for the welfare of the people in the town, and has never done the work of looting the people's fat and ointment. Even many times, when the town encounters a near-harvest year, he will pay out of his own pocket to help those poor families, which can be described as a rare good official. However, just the other day. When he went to the mountains to comfort the poor people, a Qin army passing through this place suddenly broke into the town and looted food.

Not only that, but when they met the people who couldn't hand over the food, they even angrily drew their swords and killed people. When he got the news, he rushed back to town to stop it. But where is the figure of that group of people, leaving only blood all over the ground, and the miserable image after being burned by them.

At that time, Li Shang was so angry that he fainted, but fortunately, the people accompanying him reacted quickly. Rescue him and wake him up in time, otherwise he may be angry to death. Then he immediately wrote a letter to the county guard, telling Shangguan about the misfortune that happened in the town. But what he didn't expect was that the letter he sent was like a mud cow into the sea, and there was no response for several days. He felt that something might be wrong, so he asked his men to inquire about the army. As a result, before the person even walked out of the county yamen, he suddenly died inexplicably.

Because the man's death was so bizarre, his daughter-in-law began to dissuade him from pursuing the matter. And he, although he said yes. Secretly, he didn't give up, and sent several people to investigate. And those who were sent by him all died in a strange and violent death. Once this person dies a lot, and it is because of Li Shang. He Li Shang always felt a strange feeling in his heart, especially in the middle of the night, he could always hear someone talking somewhere in his house.

Even in the daytime, when the sun was shining outside, he sat at home drinking tea, and he could still feel a gust of wind blowing behind him from time to time. It was as if something unclean was floating around behind him, blowing cold air on his back. This made Li Shang, who was not very bold, feel even more uncomfortable.

Of course, these are just Li Shang's own words. The specific situation, Wang Xuance is not clear. So I didn't have much to say, so I could only comfort Li Shang and said: "Don't worry, adults, when you come to your house, if there is something unclean, Poor Dao will help you get rid of it." ”

Since Wang Xuance didn't say anything, Chen Yijian, who was not familiar with this part, naturally wouldn't interject. Under the leadership of Li Shang, the group soon came to the mansion where he lived.

The mansion is not magnificent, only the courtyard of the second entrance. Except for a pair of stone lions at the door, which is barely enough, the furnishings in the yard are not much different from ordinary people's.

Standing in front of the arch leading to the second entrance, Wang Xuance suddenly stopped. Turning his head to look at Li Shang, he said to him with a serious face: "My lord, the situation of your house is much more serious than what you said." ”

Li Shang was stunned for a moment, and reacted randomly. His face was full of anxiety and uneasiness, and he hurriedly said to Wang Xuance: "I hope that the immortal master can come to the rescue, and the disciple must be grateful to Dade and always remember the grace of the immortal master." ”

Hearing Wang Xuance's words, Chen Yijian couldn't help but be stunned at first, but soon he saw Wang Xuance secretly squeezing his eyes at him. As soon as he saw this familiar expression, Chen Yijian didn't know what this guy's idea was. In addition, he secretly observed the feng shui of the residence, although it was not an excellent pattern, but it was okay. According to Li Shang's own words on the road, he is a Qing official with clean sleeves. If Chen Yijian is not mistaken, if he wants to pose for feng shui in this pattern, he must invite a monk who is at least on the fourth or fifth floor, and this person also needs to have a certain amount of study in this area.

Let's not talk about whether Li Shang, who is the local parent official of Fenghua Town, can invite a monk, even if he can invite and arrange the feng shui in his home. The real money to be paid in it is by no means from the functions of a small town parent. Even if you take another 10,000 steps back and say, you Li Shang is an upright official, for the people and for the country, and you are the kind of real two-sleeved breeze, then what is the use of you asking for this feng shui to gather wealth? Is it possible, you still want to rely on this feng shui to drop gold and silver from the sky?

For these, Chen Yijian didn't have any disgust in his heart. On the contrary, he couldn't help but show a curious expression on his face to Wang Xuance, who had just met him. He didn't speak, just smiled at the corner of his mouth. Putting Da Ding and Da Shi aside, leaning against the small wooden arch, he watched him talk nonsense in front of Li Shang.

may be to make Li Shang believe what he said more, Wang Xuance's face at this time is called upright. Even the tone of his speech has become stereotyped. But he seemed to forget for a while that he was in the territory of Western Qin, and he didn't control it well all of a sudden, and he even spoke other languages. Fortunately, he immediately changed it back, and continued to say to Li Shang in the official language of Western Qin: "This is a matter within the scope of the poor road, and my lord does not need to say thank you." However, the poor road is this method, and adults need to help prepare some objects for the poor road. Because Poor Dao has been doing the thing of subduing demons and subduing demons since he came down the mountain, those objects have long been used up on the way. ”

Where would Li Shang refuse, he nodded hurriedly and asked what he needed to prepare.

Wang Xuance told Li Shang about the objects he needed one by one: "An offering table, a pair of incense candles, a pig's head, a plate of melons and fruits, a bowl of raw glutinous rice, a section of willow, two sycamore leaves, eighteen copper coins, one hundred and eighty taels of silver, and one hundred and eighty taels of gold." ”

At first, Li Shang didn't feel anything, but when Wang Xuance said eighteen copper coins, Li Shang's thick eyebrows wrinkled slightly. And the one hundred and eighty taels of silver and one hundred and eighty taels of gold in the back had already made him frown completely. With an embarrassed expression on his face, he said to Wang Xuance: "Immortal Master, the disciples can help you find the objects you asked for earlier." Eighteen copper coins are not difficult. But this gold and silver are one hundred and eighty taels each, and the disciples are really powerless. The disciple's situation, I have already told the immortal master on the road, not to mention one hundred and eighty taels of gold and silver, even one hundred and eighty copper coins, and the disciple can't take it out. ”

Looking at Li Shang's bitter expression, Wang Xuance also showed an embarrassed expression on his face. said: "This is not easy to do, this gold and silver are born from heaven and earth, absorbed by the essence of the sun and the moon, and have a natural effect of restraining evil." Master Li is an honest official, and his sleeves are clean, and he can't take out the most important gold and silver, how can this be good. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xuance also paused deliberately, turned his head to look at Chen Yijian, who was watching the excitement on the side, and said with some embarrassment: "Why don't Brother Chen help Master Li?"

Where would Chen Yijian not be able to see the meaning in Wang Xuance's eyes, and he would not talk nonsense at the moment. smiled lightly at Li Shanghug, and walked towards the second courtyard. Then in the puzzled eyes of Li Shang and the others, Chen Yijian pulled out the long knife at his waist and slashed at an inconspicuous stone in the yard.

At the same time, the mouth shouted: "Come out, gold!"
