Chapter 436: Pay money to buy flowers

"Master, look at this pagoda. This is Mirage County. It's not far from the front and you can hear the sound of waves!"
Lin Jue listened carefully.
It is cool at night and there is a hidden chirping. It is difficult to tell whether it is the sound of the wind blowing through the forest or the waves in the far distance.
"There is a ferry here. It's too late, so it's not good to go forward any further. I heard that the wind and waves are very strong near the sea. Xiao Laoji's small boat cannot enter the sea. I'm afraid that it will not be able to see clearly during the darkness and cannot find the ferry.
The Taoist priest can be sent here." The boatman said to him, "Many people come to Wujing County and get off the boat here. This temple is outside Mirage County. It is now invisible. When it dawns, I will follow you
The road on the shore can see the county town at a glance."
"Thank you for the boatman."
"It's not hard or hard, the Taoist priest didn't give him any money." The boatman said, pointing to the pagoda where the lights were lit on the shore, "Any pagoda temples on the riverside can be stayed. The Taoist priest can go to the temple to stay. If you think
The Taoist priest is a Taoist person, and it is not convenient. He can also be with the young man and the general on the boat for one night."
"It's not inconvenient. Just think I'm a traveler and give some money to some indulgent oil." Lin Jue smiled, "I've been on the boat for so long and want to get ashore very much."
"Okay!"
The boatman responded with a smile and said to him, "Master, please be careful. Although I have never heard of war here, the world is chaotic and people's hearts are chaotic. Be careful on weekdays."
"We just come here to see the seaside scenery."
"Hey!"
The boatman laughed.
us?
Did you count that fox?
Nowadays, thousands of miles from Qinzhou to Luzhou, let’s take a look at the beach scenery?
This Taoist priest is really extraordinary.
After so long on the boat, he was not as irritable and bored as those guests in the past. He either meditated on the bow of the boat, watched the scenery quietly, or carved with wood alone, or was like a human being like the white fox he brought with him.
Talk and talk.
The white fox would also respond to him, as if both sides could understand each other's meaning.
And the wood is also very strange.
A small piece of wood, the Taoist priest did not need to carve a knife, but instead held an exquisite little sword and scraped it bit by bit, and at most it was scraped down at most. It would be fine if the sword was dull, but
But he had seen it once inadvertently that this little sword clearly had the advantage of cutting iron like mud.
The boatman shook his head and said to him, "Please walk slowly, get off the boat with caution."
"Thank you."
"I can't thank you."
The boatman watched Lin Jue get off the boat. The boat floated left and right on the water with the movement, shaking ripples and shaking the moonlight, with a slight sound of water splashing. The white fox looked back at him and looked towards the shore light in the moonlight.
He jumped, as if he had no weight, and he came to the shore lightly. He hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak to that side:
"The old man has been trying to ask, but he dare not ask. Now that he has arrived at the place, he really can't help but feel itchy. The Taoist priest came from Qinzhou and also brought a white fox, but the rumored Zhenren of Lin in the capital?"
The fox stopped and turned his head and looked at him.
The Taoist also turned around and smiled at him and said:
"I heard that in recent years, all Taoist people and even scammers dressed in Taoist people have always brought a white fox by their side, which once made it difficult to get a white fox in Qinzhou. What's so strange about me bringing a white fox?
Besides, the Taoist practice in the boatman’s mouth is not enough, so where can I call it a 'real person'?"
The boatman heard this and said oh, it turned out not.
I saw the Taoist saluting him and walked ashore. The fox also withdrew his light and jumped along the path.
The small road by the river is deep and dark, and it is painted at night, but the Taoist wears a gray-white Taoist robe, which becomes whiter and whiter due to the years of birth, and it is obvious that the moonlight is reflected.
And the fox was even white, illuminating the moon.
The night wind blew for a few times, and the hull shook for a while. The boatman suddenly frowned, and then he suddenly came back to his senses.
However, under the moonlight, the road and steps by the river were getting higher and higher.
The boatman shook his head but still didn't chase him.
Lie down in the shaking boat, shining on the bright moon, blowing the river breeze, without distractions, the little old man also becomes a god for a moment.
Monks are indeed good at doing business than Taoists.
The monks built the temple in the downtown area, so they left a place to set up stalls and set up spots. They were built next to the official road, and gave people free water. They built it on both sides of the canal, and used pagodas to guide the way for the passing ships.
It is convenient for others and yourself, and it can also make money from incense and stay overnight.
The Taoist's business mind is worse than that.
Nowadays, it is rare that the monks and monks in this temple still have some kindness. Seeing that Lin Jue is also a practitioner, he came here in the middle of the night and did not accept his money. He gave him a pure accommodation. The next morning, he still paid him a lot of money.
He provided breakfast.
After eating, a monk took him to the door and pointed to the path ahead and said to him:
"The Taoist priest walked along this road and could reach Shenjian County about four miles away. Don't go down the mountain,
When you go down the mountain, you will return to the riverside. If the Taoist priest wants to enter the city first, you will enter the city. If you want to go to the beach first, there will be a three-way road when you reach the city gate. Just walk to the right."
"I don't know where is the best place to see the sea?"
"The best suitable for looking at the sea? Then you have to look at it from a distance." The monk replied, "If you look closely, Wenbi Village is the village closest to the sea. You can stay there. The softest sand in Horseshoe Bay, but it is just the sea is nearest.
There are monsters, and everyone in Wenbi Village has moved away, and few people dare to go to Matiwan. If you look from a distance, it will be the highest mountain in Etuo Mountain.
The most widely seen, the monk suggested that the Taoist priest go there. No matter how rampant the sea demon is, it is impossible for him to climb up the mountain to harm the Taoist priest."
"Thank you, Master."
Lin Jue even felt like he met the temple he first left Shu Village and the roadside.
I don't know how the temple is now.
If you have the chance in the future, you should go back and have a look.
"Amitabha."
The two sides bowed to each other and parted ways.
Lin Jue summoned the paper donkey and walked forward along the mountain road.
The fox followed him in a scattered step: "Are we going to the beach to find Chaoxia?"
"Yes. But we have to go to the city first, buy some food, and buy a bottle to fill the morning glow." Lin Jue said, "Then we will go to the beach and wait for the greatest morning glow."
The fox smashed his mouth, said nothing, and followed him with his head shaking.
I stopped inadvertently and took a look down the mountain.
The riverside was empty, and the boatman had left at some point.
As the monk said, after walking along this road, I saw an old small town.
Maybe it was because the war did not affect this place. Although the city was old, the door was bustling.
Lin Jue saw many merchants coming and going, and also saw many men wearing clothes or simply shirtless gathering at the city gate. If someone enters the city and doesn't look like a poor person, he immediately gathers around and asks if he wants to lead the way and rent a house.
, for moving workers, and many hawkers carry baskets on their backs and simply gather around people to promote sales at the city gate.
"It's not easy to make a living here-"
Although Lin Jue was wearing an old Taoist robe, there were no patches on the Taoist robe, and it was clean and dusty. In addition, his face was fair and not like a poor family, so some people surrounded him.
"Dao Master wants to lead the way?"
"Where are you going? Do you want to move?"
"Do you want to sit in a bamboo sedan?"
"Do you buy pancakes? The pancakes you just made."
"Don't ask for help! Make it yourself! Buy a handful?"
"Do you eat wine? Cheaper than in the city!"
Everyone surrounded him and could hardly walk.
Lin Jue knew that if he spent money here, he would be more likely to be entangled by other people and would be even more unable to walk. However, seeing these people's clothes and pale faces and thin skin, he happened to have something to do, so he was willing to spend money on them.
, then pointed to a short and thin woman carrying a basket and asked:
"How to sell pancakes?"
"One is four cents a day, it's big and rusty, and it's also added shrimps, which is delicious!"
"Ten."
Lin Jue took out two small strings of money and handed it to her.
Then he pointed to another idle man and asked him to help lead the way.
This can save yourself time, effort, and avoid being cheated by profiteers.
As expected, when everyone saw him spending money, they knew that he was rich, and even knew that he was kind-hearted, and those who were surrounded by him were even more reluctant to leave, and more people surrounded him.
But Lin Jue had no need anymore, so he had to salute them and advised them not to waste time with him.
"Let's go! Let's go! Haven't you seen the Taoist priest say it? There is nothing you want to buy anymore! Why don't you go to greet other noble people?"
Although the idle man was thin, he was somewhat imposing and particular. After collecting Lin Jue's money, he also led the way and also drove the people around him.
There were fewer people around me soon.
After walking a hundred steps, only one person was left hanging on Lin Jue.
This man was also pale and thin and malnourished. He was carrying a basket full of itchy inside, and he was so angry that he was not so proud of himself.
"The Taoist priest is kind-hearted! Is it not to ask for help? It was made by the little man's father himself, so it makes it very good! The Taoist priest just thinks that the villain is pitiful, so buy one too?"
"Go and go! It's not what your father did. Didn't they all enter the shop in the south of the city?" The idle man waved his hands repeatedly to coax him, "Do you know the rules? The Taoist priest has me with you today.
Why are we still lingering here? How can we do things in the future like you?"
"The Taoist priest is kind! You only buy one! It has been a long time since the little man's family has been uncovered!"
Lin Jue shook his head helplessly.
This thing is useless to him, but it can be used to make fun of foxes.
"How much?"
"Just ten cents!"
Before Lin Jue could speak, the idle man glared at first:
"Ten Mont!? It's just a piece of bamboo, and only a few cents are spent in the shop in the south of the city? Why don't you grab it?"
"Don't I make some money for meals?"
"Don't buy it! This person depends on your kindness and bullying! If you want to buy it, I will take you to the south of the city to buy it!"
"Master!"
When the vendor saw that Lin Jue really wanted to not buy it, he glared at the sight and stuffed the Buqiuren into Lin Jue's arms, looking dull: "The Taoist priest has already bought it. Since he has bought it, he will have to pay it!
There is no reason in this world that you don’t pay for buying things!”
"Where did I buy it?"
"It's all in the hands of the Taoist priest, why didn't you buy it?"
Lin Jue actually realized the boatman’s reminder last night.
But he didn't care. He just smiled, lowered his head, took out ten cents from his arms, and handed them to the vendor.
The vendor took the money and smiled happily, so he wanted to leave.
Unexpectedly, the Taoist in front of him called him and asked him, "Then why don't you give me money after you bought my flowers?"
"Nonsense! Where did I buy your flowers?"
The vendor said this, but found that the idle man beside the Taoist had opened his eyes widened in surprise.
The vendor had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Look behind you."
"this-"
Chapter completed!
