Qingshan Prefecture, where Danxiao City is located, has always been privately called the Land of Ten Thousand Dharmas by Taoist monks. The reason is very simple. Because there is an expert in this Taoist sect called Chixinguan, so it is said that the Taoism of the world comes from here.
This also resulted in Qingshan Prefecture being dotted with Taoist temples and Taoists. In the past, the people naturally respected and feared these Taoists.
But now the situation has improved a lot. When facing these Taoists again, most people in Qingshan Prefecture can be neither humble nor arrogant. At most, they can put on a smile. As for groveling, it is simply impossible.
When there are more Taoist temples, there are fewer temples in Qingshan Prefecture.
The reason is simple. As early as when the concept of infatuation was established, Taoist people appeared frequently in the world. The first one to bear the brunt was naturally Qingshan Prefecture. Since Taoists often appeared and helped the world from time to time, the people naturally believed in it more.
Under this situation, most of the temples in Honshu were unsustainable. There were only a few pilgrims, and it was extremely difficult for the temples to survive.
After all, those so-called eminent monks who are not practicing spiritual practice all need to eat.
As of now, there are only three or five temples that can be found in Qingshan Prefecture.
One of the temples, located in Qingshi County, has an unusual name, Shijing.
The reason is also simple. It is said that there was a drought in Qingshi County and the people could not drink water. It happened that an ascetic monk came to this place. After several surveys, he dug a well here, which relieved the local drought. After that, the local people could
Knowing that this monk did not have a temple, he funded the construction of a temple for him, which is the Shijing Temple.
The temple is not big, and there was only the ascetic monk in the temple at first. In the following years, a few wandering monks were admitted.
However, in Qingshan Prefecture where Taoist temples are everywhere, whether a temple can exist in the world for such a long time still makes people have some doubts.
However, Ishii Temple still existed after that. The reason is simple. This temple is not aloof. During the busy farming season, the monks in the temple often stop chanting sutras in the morning and evening, and instead appear on the fields of the common people.
Help them harvest crops together.
In addition, they also grow their own vegetables and fruits, making them self-sufficient to a large extent.
In this way, the people around him no longer regarded the monks of Shijing Temple as monks, but as neighbors. If they had any big or small problems, they would come here to seek help.
Therefore, Ishii Temple has never faced an unsustainable situation in these years, but the number of monks in the temple has been extremely well controlled and has not been increased much.
Otherwise, when there are more people, it is difficult to tell where they will go.
After the Bitter Woods Festival, which is actually only three or two days, it is already the Buddhist Obon Festival. If it were in other states, naturally each temple would have to hold a special event, but in Qingshan Prefecture, although several temples
This festival will also be held, but the pomp will be much smaller.
After all, there are not many pilgrims. If you make a big fanfare and no one buys it, it will only add to the joke.
However, although the Obon Festival at Ishiiji Temple is not large in scale, there are many pilgrims. The people nearby did not forget that today is Obon Festival just because it was the Woodworking Festival a few days ago. Most people went out early to go
Went to the Ishii Temple.
But before they offered the incense, they had other things to do.
The temple has been around for too long and has been damaged in many places. Now they are here to help repair it.
There were two men. The older one looked like he was only about forty years old, in the prime of life, while the younger one was probably not even in his thirties yet.
When the two of them passed by this place, they saw the temple. They did not leave in a hurry. Instead, they went in and walked around. Seeing that the temple had a good atmosphere, they both took out some money, and then sat on the corridor and chatted about the temple.

A monk was also sent to bring two bowls of tea.
The two were holding tea and chatting for a while when a young monk came over again and looked at the two of them with some embarrassment, "Two donors, there is a huge stone behind the courtyard. It has been blocking the road for many years. Now, folks,
They said they should move it some more, but a group of people tied ropes and spent a long time unable to move it. Can you ask the two donors to help?"
The young man smiled and said it was no big deal, and then the middle-aged man put down his tea bowl and got up to go to the backyard.
The young monk glanced at the young man, who smiled and said: "My brother is very strong. He alone is enough."
Although the young monk didn't want to believe it, he couldn't say much, so he could only follow the middle-aged man and leave. However, within half a quarter of an hour, the middle-aged man left and returned, sitting under the corridor.
The young man asked, "How much does it weigh?"
The middle-aged man took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "More than eight hundred kilograms, it is indeed not light. I don't know what happened to the stone. It looked like a Buddha statue, but the monks in the temple didn't seem to care, so they just let it blow in the wind in the courtyard.
Rain."
The young man pointed around, "I've been here and you haven't understood it yet? If this were an ordinary temple, it would have been unsustainable long ago. These monks don't regard themselves as monks, and they don't wait for the people to worship. They are self-sufficient.
, otherwise, can you survive in this Qingshan State?"
The mixed word almost made the middle-aged man spit out the tea in his mouth.
But as soon as his cheeks puffed up, the young man opposite him said with a straight face: "If you spit it out, half of your salary will be deducted next month."
As soon as he said these words, the middle-aged man held back all the tea, and his expression became a little unnatural. After a while, he turned to say: "That San Xushan has already sent people to keep an eye on it, otherwise
Just remove it first and then talk about it, I think keeping it will be a disaster."
The young man said helplessly: "Old Song, why the hell don't you have the title of King of Hell outside the Song Dynasty? Others just think about it, and you will destroy the sect. You are much more ruthless than me."
Apart from Chen Chao and Song Lian, there is hardly anyone else among these two people.
Song Lian said calmly: "You can't even think about this kind of thing. If you have a good temper, if you change the official position, you will send him to the west with one punch."
Chen Chao nodded and smiled: "I agree that he has a good temper, but if it were you, you really couldn't kill him with one punch. After all, you have one foot in Fuyun. You are still one step away from the end of Wangyou. Why?"
Fight with someone?"
Song Lian didn't speak. His speed was no longer slow due to his martial arts training, but compared to this group of people, he was like a tortoise crawling.
"But being immortal right now doesn't mean that I don't want to be destroyed. If there is any action from Sanxu Mountain, I will cut off the inheritance of their orthodoxy."
Chen Chao narrowed his eyes. When it was time to kill someone, he was never merciful.
Song Lian nodded and prepared to get up and go to the main hall over there.
Chen Chao asked: "What to do?"
Song Lian said: "Go and pay your respects and wish for good luck in the north."
Chen Chao said with a smile: "If it is useful, ordinary people will not be able to enter this temple at all."
Song Lian thought about it and felt that it made sense.
However, Chen Chao smiled and said, "You can also seek peace of mind for yourself."
Song Lian said: "Having you around makes people feel more at ease than praying to Buddha."
Chen Chao laughed it off.
"
I originally wanted to go to Chixin Guan and let that guy Yun Jianyue handle the matter for me, but it turned out that guy went into seclusion, which is really troublesome."
Chen Chao was a little irritated and scratched his head. He originally wanted Yun Jianyue to deal with the demon spies in Daliang, but now that he is in seclusion, he is afraid that he will have to find another candidate?
Song Lian looked at Chen Chao and suddenly said with a strange expression: "I have some gossip about Yun Jianyue, do you want to hear it?"
Chen Chao asked: "How small is it?"
Song Lian thought for a moment and changed his explanation, "If it is in the history books, it should be called Unofficial History."
Chen Chao frowned and said, "How wild?"
Song Lian said: "I heard that Yun Jianyue had a one-night stand with Ye Zhihua before going into seclusion, and now Ye Zhihua is pregnant."
Chen Chao took a breath, "I didn't expect it to be so wild."
Song Lian sighed and said softly: "Actually, it's not a rumor, because someone saw Ye Zhihua buying a basket of chili peppers in the small town at the foot of Chixinguan Mountain."
Chen Chao asked: "What evidence is this?" ??
Song Lian said seriously: "A sour son and a hot girl. From this we can see that Ye Zhihua is pregnant with a girl."
Chen Chao frowned, wondering whether to laugh or cry, "What is this all about?"
Song Lian said calmly: "The wisdom of our ancestors."
Chen Chao remained silent.
Song Lian patted Chen Chao's shoulder with some sympathy and comforted him: "Actually, it's nothing. It will happen sooner or later."
Chen Chao's mouth twitched and his tone was low, "But that bastard is a fucking Taoist priest!"
Song Lian sighed and said, "Fortunately, I'm not a monk."
Chen Chao raised his head and looked at Song Lian, speechless.
…
…
A piece of news has recently spread a lot in Chixinguan, shocking everyone.
Ye Zhihua, who was once one of the twins of the Taoist sect, is now pregnant. As for who the father of the child is, I am afraid that no one in Chixin Guan will come up with a second name in their mind.
At first, no one took the news seriously before, but until later, they discovered that Senior Sister Ye's belly was getting more and more bulging, and no one doubted the matter anymore.
"Senior Sister and Senior Brother Guanzhu have amazing cultivation talents. I am afraid that this little nephew will become the real born monk in the history of our Taoist sect!"
You must know that there have been more than one geniuses in the history of Taoism in the past, but it is difficult to have one as high as Yun Jianyue. The important thing is that even if similar geniuses have appeared, they have not left any heirs.
In the eyes of monks, cultivation is a personal matter. Even if they have Taoist companions, they are unlikely to leave any heirs. At most, in their later years, they will find a disciple with good talent to teach them all their cultivation skills.
As a result, the blood of many geniuses has not been passed down.
Everyone didn't take it seriously before, but now, the appearance of the uncle and nephew from the Liang Dynasty has made the monks think about it.
"That's right. Back then, senior sister and senior brother were known as the twins of the Tao sect. They were equally talented. Now, the senior brother is such a young master of the Tao sect. If he really has an heir, then if he grows up in a few years, he should be the invincible in the world of that generation.
Already."
"I'm somewhat looking forward to it, but I don't know whether the baby in Senior Sister's belly is a boy or a girl."
"Sister, I went down the mountain to buy a basket of chili peppers a few days ago. It must be a girl."
"How can I see it?"
"Sour and spicy girl."
"Which classic
#Every time verification appears, please do not use incognito mode!
Is it in the book?"
…
…
In the back mountain, in front of the cave where Yun Jianyue is, Ye Zhihua is sitting here.
There were some footsteps behind her, and then a young Taoist priest wearing dark red robes came out and sat next to her.
Ye Zhihua asked: "Why?"
Yun Jianyue looked at the belly of the woman beside her, shook her head and said, "I can't calm down all the time. I want to take a look at her."
Ye Zhihua glanced at Yun Jianyue and said softly: "I have concerns in my heart."
Yun Jianyue smiled and said: "I always have, but I have some expectations for her."
Ye Zhihua put his hand on his lower abdomen and said: "She may become the first female practitioner in the history of Chixin Temple in the future."
Yun Jianyue frowned and said, "How can you see it?"
Ye Zhihua said: "Don't you mean her as a daughter?"
Yun Jianyue was a little embarrassed and said: "It's just a good expectation."
Ye Zhihua thought for a while, blushed slightly and said, "I like spicy food lately."
Yun Jianyue suddenly realized it, then nodded and said softly: "So it's this."
Ye Zhihua changed the subject and said: "Someone from the imperial court came once and said that Chen Chao wanted to ask you a favor. You were in retreat, so I didn't respond."
Yun Jianyue asked: "What's the matter?"
"Some monsters have crossed the Great Wall in the north. Now in Daliang's territory, there will be reports of some Daliang movements coming back from time to time. He wants your help to clear them out."
When Ye Zhihua talked about the matter, he still had no emotion.
Yun Jianyue nodded and said: "Okay, this matter will be done immediately. Although I don't know how to fight, I know very well that if one party knows the details of the two parties, the other party will be very passive."
"I'd better trouble you, senior sister, about this matter."
Yun Jianyue smiled and said: "I think senior sister can do a good job."
Ye Zhihua rarely joked: "Otherwise, this temple owner would just sit for me, and there would be no need for her."
Yun Jianyue smiled and said: "Where in the world is there a mother who would steal things from her own daughter?"
Having said this, Yun Jianyue suddenly became energetic and smiled to herself: "I have to give that guy another letter!"
…
…
After drinking tea, Song Lian happened to receive the summons, but his face still looked strange.
Chen Chao actually noticed it and asked casually: "Why, that guy Yun Jianyue is out of seclusion?"
In Qingshan Prefecture, the message from Chixin Temple will naturally reach here very quickly.
Song Lian nodded and said, "He agreed to this matter and said he would try his best to help."
Chen Chao nodded and smiled: "You are indeed worthy of my trust in him."
"but……"
Song Lian wanted to speak but stopped.
Chen Chao raised his eyebrows, "What but?"
Song Lian's eyes were full of pity when he looked at Chen Chao.
He thought for a while and then said softly: "He said that he is going to be a father soon, so he wants you to cheer up. If the few secret books he gave you before are not enough, he will choose for you."
Secret book? What secret book? Song Lian handed Chen Chao an I know it, but I won’t tell others look in his eyes.
Chen Chao said nothing, but veins popped out on his forehead.
At this moment, the young guard's murderous intention was far greater than when he met Xu Wei before!
