Chapter 56 Money Chuanzi

After leaving the ward, Ermiao was waiting at the door. The two of us looked at each other.

I asked Ermiao whether his father's condition was serious or not, and what did the doctor say?

Er Miao told me and Lao Chen that the doctor said that Uncle Miao's life was not in danger, he just had a slight concussion, but he had to stay in the hospital for some further examinations before he could be released home.

I know that the cause of the concussion must be that I hit the back of my head when I fell. Since there is nothing wrong with other parts of my body, it shouldn't be a big problem.

After Lao Chen went downstairs, he did not leave the hospital directly, but quietly paid Uncle Meow's medical expenses.

Seeing that Lao Chen was showing his kindness again, my favorability towards Lao Chen suddenly increased by 10 points.

I asked Lao Chen: "Actually, we can't all be blamed for Uncle Meow's hospitalization. Why do you still have to..."

Lao Chen interrupted me with a wave of his hand: "Hey, Xiaoma, now my life is almost at risk, do I still care about money?"

When I thought about it, it was the same thing. If my life was gone, what would be the point of asking for money?

Immediately, I wanted to tell Lao Chen, since you don’t care about money so much now, why not just transfer the 8,000 yuan to me now? Why wait until tomorrow?

Although I really wanted to make this request, I felt it was too inappropriate to say it now, so in the end I didn't say it...

After leaving the hospital, I got in Lao Chen's car and returned to Uncle Meow's residence.

Along the way, I was thinking, what kind of person would Uncle Meow’s so-called senior brother be?

Is it powerful?

Can he help Lao Chen clean up the dirt on his body?

All of this seems to be a huge unknown???



When I returned to Uncle Meow's house, there was no one at the door.

Since he is Uncle Miao's senior brother, he is also an expert. Lao Chen said that since he is an expert, it is normal to be late.

Lao Chen and I stood at the gate and waited for a while. The neighbors passing by always looked at us strangely, which made us feel a little embarrassed.

I pushed the door of the small courtyard tentatively, and then found that the door of the small courtyard was still unlocked, so we entered the small courtyard and waited.

It seemed that only then did Lao Chen notice that there were many old clocks displayed on wooden shelves in the yard.

He asked me curiously: "Hey, Xiaoma, why do you think the master collects so many clocks? Does he use these antique clocks to practice Taoism?"

I smile!

I originally wanted to tell Old Chen that Uncle Meow used to be a watchmaker who repaired watches, but I was worried that telling the truth would dissipate Old Chen's enthusiasm, so I didn't say anything.

At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the small green iron door was pushed open by someone outside. Lao Chen and I immediately raised our heads to take a look...

When I look at it this way...

I'm going to...

It’s simply shocking!!!

Because I actually know this so-called expert, Uncle Meow’s senior brother?!

The person who came in was a dry old man who looked to be in his sixties. He was wearing very ordinary cheap clothes and had an ordinary look. How could he be as rich as Er Miao's father?

His eyebrows are somewhat high, and his pair of small yellow eyes are sunken deep into the eye sockets. Although his eyes are small, they are shrewd.

Who is this person?

How did I meet you?

Ahem...

I really didn’t expect that Uncle Miao’s senior brother was actually the dry old man who set up a street stall in front of the Grand Zen Monastery, that is, the black-hearted vendor who tricked me into spending 800 yuan to buy a copper bell!!!

"Uh...why is it you?!" I asked casually.

The dry old man was also stunned for a moment, but he just smiled slightly, showing his yellow teeth left by years of smoking low-quality cigarettes.

Now, Lao Chen is confused again?!

He looked at me and then at the dry old man, and asked in confusion: "Xiao Ma, why do you know both masters? You are so secretive. No wonder you have the courage to be a sleep tester in a haunted house?

!”

I scratched my head, it was so hard to explain!

I really didn't expect that I haven't met many people recently, but there are two magic sticks among them?

The old man Ganba could tell at a glance that I was not the client introduced by Uncle Meow. He was very shrewd and knew at a glance that Old Chen was the real financial backer.

Therefore, he ignored me and asked Lao Chen directly with a smile: "How do you call this layman?"

"Master, I...my surname is Chen, you can just call me Xiao Chen..." Old Chen nodded his head very respectfully.

"Oh, Master Chen, hello. I heard from my junior brother that you have encountered some troubles, but my junior brother failed to help you solve your troubles, right?"

"Yes, yes..." Lao Chen continued to nod.

"Okay, in that case, let's go in and talk first!"

"Okay, okay!"

The dry old man had the door key to Uncle Meow's house in his hand. He opened the door, and within two steps of walking in, he was staggered by the stench inside!

"Why is it so smelly? Is the toilet clogged?" the dry old man asked in a very ungrateful manner.

"No, no, no," Lao Chen quickly explained, "It's all a problem with the eggs... You... go in and take a look... and you'll know..."

"Well, that's it..."

I followed them quickly to the main room. The scene was still the same, and the room was really smelly.

But as long as you smell that stink for a while, your nose will be numb and you won't feel that stink anymore.

The old man squatted on the ground and began to carefully observe the fragments of the porcelain bowls and the broken egg shells...

After a while...

He smiled, narrowed his eyes, and showed a confused smile that said he knew everything!!!

"Master, can you save me?!" Lao Chen stood behind and asked in confusion.

"Jushi Chen, don't always call me master. Only liars call me master," he said, and he clasped his hands in a polite manner, "Pindao is an authentic Taoist priest from Huoju. His surname is Qian, and his Taoist name is Qian Chuanzi.

, you can also just call me Daozhang Qian..."

What does it mean to be a Taoist priest?

I didn't know it at the time, but I found out later after checking it online.

To put it simply, the Huoju Taoist priest is indeed a Taoist priest. When he is in the Taoist temple, he can wear a Taoist robe like a Taoist priest and perform rituals. When he is not working, he is an ordinary person. He practices at home, eats meat, drinks wine, marries a wife and has children.

The kind of Taoist priest who doesn't delay.

Also, "Qianchuanzi" is a Taoist name, not the name of a small insect that lives in old houses. The last "zi" must be pronounced with a long sound, such as Wu Daozi, Zhen Yuanzi, etc.

Right.

However, I never call him "Qian Chuanzi" or "Qian Daozhang", I prefer to call him "Old Man Qian".

In fact, it is useless to say that these are some or not.
