......

"White Lotus Sect! I found the door so soon!" Ao Yan's body stiffened, his fists clenched, and the cold hairs on his body were all cold.

After taking a breath, he turned his head and saw a beggar holding a rice bowl and shouting at him.

"It turned out that there was a false alarm...... "The tense body suddenly relaxed, gave two cents and turned around and left.

The beggar was unkempt, glanced at Ao Yan's pocket, stopped in front of him again, held the broken bowl, and the two or three pennies in it jingled, and said again: "No old mother, vacuum hometown, in the White Lotus Sect, the four seas are a family." ”

Ao Yan frowned, understanding that he was asking for more money.

"When the real horse is good to be ridden, and the person is good at being bullied, give this product a color and dare to open a dyeing workshop. Ao Yan couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, he was a poor bastard, how could he still rely on himself, looking left and right was the street, people came and went, what could a beggar do, and snorted coldly: "The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, giving you two pennies is already a good fight, you are still climbing your nose and face, go quickly!"

"Hey, hey. The beggar smiled and swept Ao Yan's pocket, and said while hitting the ground with a bamboo stick in his hand: "Within my teaching, the four seas are a family, like brothers and sisters, like sisters, and I teach outside the ......."

At this point, Ao Yan suddenly found that in the crowd, at the mouth of the alley, four or five beggars appeared one after another.

These beggars crossed the crowd and surrounded Ao Yan one after another, and the people around them either avoided it, or looked at each other indifferently.

In an instant, the noisy streets became incredibly clean.

Ao Yan's heart was cold.

It's not that people's hearts are warm and cold, but this White Lotus Sect seems to be really powerful, compared to this, Xie Shenpo, who only dares to come in secret, is pediatric.

A total of six beggars surrounded Ao Yan and did not speak, their eyes looked at him indifferently, and the rice bowl in their hands stretched forward.

The leader is still the one just now, so I heard him say: "No one in my White Lotus Sect dares to bully, bullying one person is bullying a sect, bullying a sect is bullying the four seas, if the little brother is sincere, just look at these six bowls full of dissatisfaction." ”

Under the sun, Ao Yan was carrying a fish basket on his back, his expression was calm, but thousands of thoughts flashed in his heart.

"I have some money and I can see it by this sharp-eyed beggar, and if I don't give it and stop it, wouldn't the others be very bad? The official government yamen also didn't appear, which showed that the White Lotus Sect was really not easy to mess with. ”

No matter whether you mess with it or not, you must not hand over the money on your body, and you still rely on these four taels of silver for your own life.

Since you can't pay it, you have to find another way.

Ao Yan's heart moved, and he suddenly calmed down, shook his head and laughed, the beggars couldn't see why, but they still didn't disperse.

"What are you laughing at!" shouted the beggar at the head.

"Don't punch yourself in the face. ”

"Hit yourself in the face? Why do we hit ourselves in the face? What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and take it out!"

"Oh, ignorant believer. Ao Yan looked up with his hand, and a faint sense of official position emanated from his body, and before he knew it, the six beggars had taken two steps back, and he continued: "The silt comes from the chaos of Qi, and the white lotus is in full bloom. ”

Ao Yan read all the letters from the goddess Xie and had three things in common.

First, each letter begins with the sentence "For my childless mother, return to my vacuum hometown".

Second, there is an eighty-one leaf white lotus pattern on the back of each letter, and the couplet that Ao Yan said is neatly written in a small seal below.

Third, there is no signature at the end of each letter, only a seven-leaf red lotus logo.

Judging from the situation, the first sentence should be known to all believers, and that couplet is only qualified to be known by minions like Xie Shenpo.

There are red immortals in Xiangliu Village, there are Xie Shenpo, and there are beggars in this mayfly town, and there must be a head.

If the head is the beggar in front of him, then between the same level, show his identity, and his current dilemma will naturally be solved, if not, then the person behind the beggar must be nearby.

The beggars were puzzled by this sentence, and when they were about to drink again, a regular sound of chopsticks hitting the bowl suddenly sounded out of nowhere.

Dangdang, Dangdang, Dangdang, Dangdang......

As soon as they heard this, the beggars looked at each other, their faces wandered, but their steps were backwards, and as the sound of chopsticks hitting the bowl became urgent, the beggar finally stepped forward, took out the two pennies in the bowl, and respectfully handed them to Ao Yan with both hands, and the other beggars scattered at this time.

"Alright, let's take it for tea, I have something to do. Ao Yan said coldly, but he wanted to leave this place quickly.

"Yes, yes......" The beggar nodded back and forth.

At this moment, he heard a loud sound, like a broken bowl, the beggar's face changed, his knees were weak, and he fell to the ground, kowtowed, and held the two pennies in the palm of his hand, not without trembling.

"Beg, beg the adults to accept ......"

"Get out!" Ao Yan suddenly frowned and drank coldly, and left without looking back.

There was a chaotic sound of chopsticks knocking on the bowl nearby, and the beggar finally escaped as if he had been amnestied, and crawled away, while Ao Yan spared a few alleys with a blank face, and arrived at Longtan Tower, where he handed over the fish to the shopkeeper.

When the shopkeeper saw it, it turned out to be a rare big white fish, and he was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly asked people to raise it.

"Little brother, you have helped me a lot this time, the selection will start in the middle of this month, and you must come to appreciate it at that time." The shopkeeper held Ao Yan's hand and looked grateful.

Ao Yan accepted the money, he had his own thoughts, and he had no time to pay attention to these.

The shopkeeper also saw it, and asked the second child in the store to get some cooked food and pack it with oiled paper, and bundle the bamboo strips for Ao Yan to put on them, and no longer keep them.

Ao Yan went out of the back door of Longtan Building, turned around and walked out of the west of Mayfly Town, and finally returned to the original road in the east of the town and sprinted back to Xiangliu Village, worrying along the way.

But he had to do this, today's actions must have left some impressions in the White Lotus Sect in the town, and some things in the future will be too conspicuous, he is to ensure his safety.

Compared to other places, Xiangliu Village is the safest.

The south of Xiangliu Village is Xiangliu Lake, the north side is a big mountain with the red soil slope as the entrance, the west side is also surrounded by mountains, the east of the village is the only big road out of the village, one comes to thank the goddess has died, and the other is located in the remote village is really poor, living here for generations, there are almost no outsiders.

The most reassuring thing for Ao Yan is that this is his territory!

At night, Ao Yan ate something, lit an oil lamp and was reading, and he didn't turn two teas on one page, but he was actually waiting for Changming.

Tuk tuk.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in. Ao Yan put down the book, the door opened, and Chang Ming, dressed in green clothes, walked in, if Ao Yan was not the only one who could see it, he might really think that he was an ordinary child.

"Tell me about today. Ao Yan turned around and exposed his back to Changming.

Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are quite valuable, even if there is a rough Ao Yan in the room, he is reluctant to use it, so Changming thought of a way to write on Ao Yan's back, which is extremely time-saving pen and ink, and can communicate at the same time.

I felt a trace of cold breath falling on my back, gentle as a breeze, and Ao Yan couldn't help but shiver comfortably.

"There are a total of 218 people in the village, most of the people who come to Shangxiang are elderly people, these old people are from the east of the village, Yang Li comes to the temple every day to clean and guard, and the dog reads in the temple every day......

"I know all these trivial things, ask one thing, do the villagers talk about the water ghosts of Xiangliu Lake?" Ao Yan interrupted.

The back was cold and slightly paused, and the writing stopped.

"Yes. I heard the old people say that about sixty or seventy years ago, Xiangliu Lake was surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the villagers had good water properties, and they had the law of raising pearls and pearl diving, so the families were rich. Later, one day, there was a mixed ruffian in the village who lost his footing in the lake, but the body was never found, and then strange things happened, the best pearl keepers drowned one after another, the fishing boat, the Lingling boat, and the lotus root boat turned over one after another, and the person drowned, a total of more than ten times, and no one dared to approach Xiangliu Lake, I heard that the ruffian turned into a water ghost to do it. ”

"Oh, is there really such a thing? Doesn't that mean that the foundation of my Hubo Temple is corrupt, and I am also implicated by this?"
