Chapter 262 Returning to Fucheng, the breath of fireworks in the world
Fucheng.
When Jin An and the others returned to Fucheng after treating the wounded at Longwang Temple, it was already around the end of the afternoon.
Although it had only been one night for them to go down to the Yinyi River, when they stepped into Fucheng again, looking at the bustling and lively city in front of them, and the city with the smell of fireworks in the world, they still had the illusion that a long, long time had passed.
Jin An and the four of them talked as they walked. They did not immediately return to Wu Zang Taoist Temple, but first went to the haggis noodle stall where they often ate to satisfy their stomachs.
This haggis noodle stall is located in a small alley. It is the time when the summer sun is shining brightly, and the lingering power of the heat and drought caused by the birth of the little Hanba has not completely dissipated, so the haggis in this small alley is shaded.
Noodle shop, business is more prosperous than usual.
Thanks to Jin An and the others for arriving early, it was not yet time for dinner. Of the dozen or so square tables set up in the alley, two-thirds of the diners were seated, and there were still a few empty tables.
“Taoist Jin’an, Taoist Chen, brothers Xiajian, are they still the same today?”
The haggis noodle stall is run by a diligent and honest middle-aged couple. The boss is making noodles for the customers in front of the steaming stove. The person who comes to say hello is the diligent wife of the proprietress.
Jin An and the others are old customers here. They often come here secretly with silly sheep on their backs to eat haggis noodles. When the landlady came over to say hello, she also put down four bowls of sour plum soup.
It's just that when the lady boss put down the sour plum soup, she couldn't help but look at Jin An curiously. Jin An's five internal organs Taoist robes were torn in the ancient tomb. What he was wearing now was not the usual Taoist robes, but the Taoist robes he wore in the Dragon King Temple.
Borrowed clothes from ordinary people.
As soon as the old Taoist priest saw the sour plum soup, his eyes immediately lit up. In summer, a bowl of sour plum soup can cool down the heat and quench thirst. That is the most pleasant life.
"Don't be polite, Taoist priests, just drink it. This sour plum soup is free. When you come to eat noodles at our house, everyone will get a bowl of sour plum soup as a gift. August and September this year are especially hot, so drink the sour plum soup first to cool down, quench your thirst, and whet your appetite.
"
The landlady saw the greed in the old Taoist priest's eyes and said kindly.
“Boss, boss lady, you know how to do business so well, it will be difficult for you not to make a fortune in this life.” The old Taoist priests all spoke eloquently. It seems that this diligent couple is really going to make a fortune.
In such a hot weather, a free bowl of sour plum soup can attract more business and repeat customers, although it adds a lot of cost.
Sour plum soup not only whets the appetite, increases appetite, but also relieves heat and quenches thirst. If the diners are happy with the meal, it will naturally bring a lot of money. This is called detail service.
The words of the old Taoist priest made the boss and his wife extremely happy. Folks believed in Taoist priests and monks very much. Regardless of whether the words of the old Taoist priest were true or false, at least they spoke to the hearts of the couple and they were very happy.
"Boss, do you have a lot of haggis left today? Give us five bowls of haggis noodles. This time put more haggis and less noodles. I will pay double the price. My disciple wants to eat one more bowl of haggis.
noodle."
Jin An fulfilled his promise to sharpen the sword in the tomb. After coming out of the tomb, he brought the sharp sword and ate haggis noodles and an extra bowl of haggis noodles.
“It’s a coincidence, Mr. Jin’an, the weather has been unusually hot recently, drought has occurred in many places, and many sheep have died. Recently, the sheep tripe, liver, heart, lungs, and kidneys... are quite enough. I still have half a lamb chop here.”
Once he heard that the boss actually hid the mutton chops, Jin An, the old Taoist priest's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at the boss even as he was sharpening his sword dully.
Jin An directly said that they had wrapped the half of the lamb chops.
They almost lost their lives in the tomb this time. If they can get ashore safely this time, they will naturally have fun in time.
"Hey, I don't know when the severe drought brought about by the Dragon King's anger will end. In the end, we ordinary people will suffer. The prices of rice, noodles, vegetables, and various firewood, rice, oil, and salt prices around Fucheng have all increased recently.
The price has increased a lot, and many businessmen from other places have taken the opportunity to raise their prices." When talking about the abnormal weather, the landlady sighed with a sad face.
“Don’t worry, this drought will be over soon.”
Jin An said with a confident smile.
The Dragon King under the Yinyi River has been killed by him.
Naturally, there is no need to rely on small droughts to stop the flow of the Yinyi River.
That's why Jin'an dared to say confidently that the drought around Fucheng would soon pass.
Although the Little Hanba was lost and his whereabouts are still unknown, unless the antique merchants were accidentally kicked in the head by a donkey and their whereabouts were exposed, leading to an encirclement and suppression by the imperial court, they would have hidden the Little Hanba even deeper for fear of exposing his whereabouts.
The landlady is just an ordinary person. Naturally, she doesn’t know what Jin An and the others experienced in the ancient tomb last night. She thought that Jin An was just saying some polite words of comfort. After saying a few polite words, she turned around and went to help her husband.
…
…
Suck, gulp, gulp, gulp
“Hiccup, feel good!”
“In such a hot weather, you should have a bowl of sour plum soup to quench your thirst!”
The four of them raised their heads and drank up the sour plum soup in the bowl in unison, then put down the bowl in unison. They all burped and exhaled the turbid air in their bodies. They felt so refreshed and exhausted from the trip to the tomb.
And empty.
The neat movements of the four people here made the other diners around laugh. Everyone smiled kindly and hugged Jin'an's table. They said with a smile to the Taoist priests, "Mr. lives a free and easy life, and is not rigid."
The worldly gaze is so enviable.
Jin An and the others also clasped their fists and returned the greetings to everyone, just like a picture of the human world in the world of prosperity, prosperity, peace and tranquility, full of the smell of ordinary people's fireworks.
While waiting for the haggis noodles and lamb chops to be served, Mr. Feng Shui continued to talk about the previous topic.
The Four Symbols of Duantianjiedi have been broken, the shackles of the Yang Realm have been broken, and the exhausted spiritual energy is quickly reappearing in the Yang Realm.
More than ten years ago, the Four Symbols Bureau of Duantianjiedi in Kangding Kingdom was broken. The dragon veins of Kangding Kingdom were disturbed, turning the earth dragon upside down, causing the Dongtianfu Earthquake to crack and create a gap.
Dongtian Paradise is a Taoist holy land.
A Taoist senior had an unfulfilled wish, so he found a treasured place in the Cave Heaven as a cemetery, and devoted himself to cultivating the Corpse Discipline Immortal. This was used to avoid the various natural and man-made disasters that would easily lead to the destruction of corpses due to changing one's destiny and practicing the Corpse Discipline Immortal.
’s calamity.
The physical body of Shijie Xian was exiled to the outside world, and the Luogeng jade plate with the map of the path to the Paradise of Cave Heaven was also exiled to the outside world. This is the secret and origin of the shackles of the underworld being opened, and the Taoist holy land of Cave Heaven and Paradise reappearing in the underworld.
Jin An actually already knew these difficult secrets, but when he learned about them again from Mr. Feng Shui, he still looked extremely solemn.
Mr. Feng Shui continued: "Master Jin'an must also know that Wuzhou Prefecture is located in the southwest, where there are mountains, lakes, rivers and abundant rainfall. Every rainy season, flash floods will occur on both sides of the Yinyi River."
“Madam said that this time the shackles of the world are opened, the first paradise in the world in Wuzhou Prefecture is related to ‘Yu Ze’.”
“It was a world where Tianzhu Mountain collapsed, a hole was made in the sky, and the rain from the sky never dried up for thousands of years, and the sun never saw the light of day…”
“This time the Teng Kingdom’s artifact Water Dividing Bead is being targeted. It is estimated that they want to use Teng State’s artifact Water Dividing Bead to fight against the Yuze World in Dongtian Paradise.”
"If the Wu Zang Taoist Temple also wants to enter the blessed land of cave heaven this time, and wants to go upstream in the age of great strife, Mr. Jin'an and the Wu Zang Taoist Temple must make some preparations in advance, and prepare how to deal with the Yuze that has not dried up for thousands of years.
The World Confronts. Presumably, the three pieces of the Luogeng Jade Plate that the Water Goddess gave to Taoist Master Jin'an in the end were intended to send the three members of the Wu Zang Taoist Temple into the Cave Heaven Blessed Land of the Taoist Holy Land, in order to repay Mr. Jin'an's kindness for pacifying the Dragon King for her and her father."
"It's a pity that the Tengguo artifact, the water-dividing bead, was originally ordered by my wife to take the water-dividing bead, just to give it to Mr. Jin'an, so that he can help Mr. Jin'an to be like a fish in water in the blessed land of Dongtian and win more immortals.
Fate... Fortunately among the misfortunes, Mr. Jin An is rich in blessings. This time he not only defeated the Dragon King but also returned safely. Although he lost the water-dividing pearl, the most important thing is that Mr. Jin An can return safely."
«
“!”
The old Taoist priest was immediately entertained.
He winked at Jin An, and then glanced pointedly at the concentric gold lock that Jin An had been wearing close to his chest.
The meaning couldn’t be more obvious, it’s almost as if the word envy is written directly on your face.
It is also a concentric lock.
Another gift to Tengguo's divine weapon, water-dividing beads.
This beautiful sister-in-law is so damn good to her little brother.
I know when I can face the sea, enjoy the warm spring flowers, and wake up the spring of life.
After being together for so long, how could Jin An not know the meaning in the eyes of the old Taoist priest? He glared at the old Taoist priest. At this time, he was still digesting the information about the cave heaven and paradise brought by Mr. Feng Shui. He had no time to talk to the old Taoist priest for the time being.
.
Yuze World?
Jin An frowned and murmured to himself.
He turned his palm and took out the three Luogeng jade plate fragments on his body, which were the last gifts given to him by the Water Goddess.
Isn’t it just enough for him, the old Taoist priest, to sharpen swords for three people?
“Mr. Yi, can you tell me more about the situation in this paradise?” Jin An frowned and looked at Mr. Feng Shui sitting opposite.
In the end, Mr. Feng Shui shook his head and said that he didn’t know much about the situation. The only information he knew was what he heard from his wife.
“If Mr. Jin An wants to know more specific circumstances, why doesn’t Mr. Jin An directly visit my wife?” Mr. Feng Shui looked at Jin An with a smile.
I feel that the more Mr. Jin An looks at it, the more he likes it.
Young and promising.
Have an upright mind.
At a young age, he already had the family business of Wu Zang Taoist Temple.
The achievements in the future are limitless.
“However, my wife is transforming into a Yang body at a critical moment, so I’m afraid it will be inconvenient to see Mr. Jin An in a short time.” Mr. Feng Shui said regretfully.
After hearing what Mr. Feng Shui said, Jin An huffed. He didn’t know why he felt a little nervous inside and breathed a sigh of relief: “Okay, then another day.”
Finally, Mr. Feng Shui reminded Jin An that the rainy season in the southwest is concentrated in July and August. The birth of this blessed land in the cave is the Yuze World, which will only be born in the rainy season, either in July or August.
Since July has not appeared, it means that he will be born in August. Now it is about to enter September and end the rainy season. There are not many days left. If the Five Zang Taoist Temple really wants to enter the Taoist holy land of Dongtian Paradise to find destiny, the birth of Dongtian Paradise should be in
It's been a few days, so let Jin An and the others prepare early, otherwise they might be in danger if they rush into the rainy world rashly.
After saying this, Mr. Feng Shui inadvertently took away a few tortoise shells on the table. Those tortoise shells happened to be placed in some mysterious Qimen Dunjia orientation.
After Mr. Feng Shui put away the tortoise shell, the boss’s haggis noodles had just been cooked, and the couple came over with the haggis noodles.
"Taoist Jin'an, Taoist Chen, Brother Chijian, and this distinguished guest, please use them with caution. These four bowls of sour plum soup are for us and my wife to treat four distinguished guests, and there is no charge."
After leaving four more bowls of sour plum soup, the couple continued to work on the charcoal-grilled lamb chops, which were not yet done.
The two couples and the nearby diners continued to be busy with their own affairs, and there was no abnormal expression on their faces. It was as if the conversation between Mr. Feng Shui and Jin An and the others had not been heard by the outside world.
This meal made Jin'an and the others feel so good that their mouths were full of oil. The old Taoist priest was so full that he burped while picking his teeth.
The old Taoist priest sat on a long bench with his belly so full that he could not move, and his mouth was full of oil. He had a look of satisfaction on his face. According to the original words of the old Taoist priest, this is what is called life and living.
However, the cost of this meal is also quite high.
Eating dozens of pennies.
Jin An stopped Mr. Feng Shui from inviting guests and said that he was grateful to Mr. Yi for helping him this time. This meal was considered as my thanks to Mr. Yi. I, Jin An, am not the kind of person who repays kindness with evil and does not know what is good or bad.
While Jin An was rushing to pay the bill, a small accident happened. Two swordsmen from the Jianghu area fought in the street regardless of their swords. The passers-by were frightened and screamed, and several people were trampled and injured.
If a police officer hadn't arrived in time with the government officials, the two violent swordsmen escaped and started fighting in the street, and something might have happened.
Jin An saw that the yamen officer arrived in time and there was no need for him to take action, so he stopped paying attention to the whereabouts of the two swordsmen. He turned and walked back to the alley to continue paying the bill.
As a result, as soon as he took the first step, he felt something stepped on the soles of both shoes. When he lowered his head and looked at it, he was immediately happy.
Those are two money bags.
The scattered silver and copper coins added together amounted to a total of five taels of silver.
Today's meal was paid for by the rich woman Luobao Qian on his behalf, and Jin An was delighted.
In the tomb, there were many people and many eyes. Jin An never dared to use the ability of the treasure money, for fear of attracting too much attention, so he still kept the second chance to use it today.
The treasure money in his hand has been sealed twice, and he has two chances to drop the treasure every day.
If he does not take the initiative to use the treasured money, the treasured money will be passively used by the unscrupulous people. What is this called? This is called robbing the rich and giving to the poor. He hates evil as much as he hates it. He never attacks the poor. His character is like that of Jin'an, and his three views are very upright!
These two money bags are naturally the two murderous swordsmen.
As for the money bags they dropped on the street, why would they go all the way to a small alley on the side of the road? They are only allowed to "accidentally" drop money because their movements are too large, and they are not allowed to drop money because their movements are too large.
"Accidentally" kicked the money bag into the alley?
After finishing the haggis noodles and mutton chops, Mr. Feng Shui said goodbye and left soon after. He had to report what happened in the tomb to his wife and report to Mr. Jin An that he was safe as soon as possible.
By the way, the first thing Mr. Jin An said when they met was that he was concerned about his wife's health. The wife must be very happy to hear that, and the wife is in a happy mood, and they, the servants, are relaxed. Maybe he lost the water-splitting bead this time.
, Madam will not punish Mr. Jin An for not grabbing the water drop for him...
…
As for Jin'an, the old Taoist priests sharpened their swords. After saying goodbye to the Feng Shui master, they did not return to the Five Zang Taoist Temple immediately.
They now smell like sheep.
I don’t dare to go back to the Taoist temple.
After picking up five taels of silver, Jin An thought about it in his mind, so the three of them, smelling like sheep, went to the Goulan Tile House and listened to the song Ying Ying Yan Yan. It was not until the curfew was approaching that they took the Goulan Tile House with them.
The smell of rouge and powder from the singers in the restaurant reluctantly returns to the Five Zang Taoist Temple...
