It rains heavily during the Qingming Festival.
Pedestrians on the road want to die.
May I ask where the restaurant is?
The shepherd boy points to Xinghua Village in the distance.
After listening to the old Taoist priest's words, Jin An had some subtle insights into his state of mind.
The old Taoist priest came one day earlier than Jin An. According to what the old Taoist priest said, every time a person, horse, monkey, etc. made of clay is given a breath of fairy air by this old man with a broken crown, he can live for one day and turn back into clay after nightfall.
pinch people.
This Hezhuang is not some ghost village.
Instead, a great immortal was making human beings out of clay.
Perseverance day after day.
Create a prison for yourself.
Jin An noticed that the old man who made the man out of clay had only four fingers on each hand, and a total of eight fingers on both hands. He looked surprised.
It turns out that this great immortal is the reincarnated shepherd boy of the Toad Fairy.
Just when Jin An's eyes showed a thoughtful look, the old Taoist priest said another more shocking news: "Little brother, last night I saw an ancient corpse wrapped in gold jade clothes, got on this boat, and followed the boat.
I don’t know where I went when I went around the village river.”
Jin An looked surprised when he heard this.
The old Taoist priest continued to wink at Jin An and said: "That's why I didn't leave the river village in a hurry, because I have been thinking about how to get on the boat."
"According to my secret observation, there are quite a few people entering Hezhuang this time. It is estimated that they have discovered the secret of Hezhuang and want to board the boat of the Great Toad Immortal."
"The boat is narrow and can't hold many people. If there is no chance tonight, we will have to wait for the opportunity tomorrow. I just don't know where the Toad Immortal and the boat are going."
When the old Taoist priest said this, he glanced at Jin An curiously: "Little brother, you and the ancient corpse wearing gold jade clothing arrived at Hezhuang two days ago. Did you encounter the ancient corpse wearing gold jade clothing on your way here?
?”
Jin An snorted and prevaricated vaguely.
Jin An would not believe anything the old Taoist priest said. As soon as the former finished speaking, Jin An saw someone jumping out of a house in the dark night and rushing to the river bank.
The man probably came prepared and knew that people could board the ship. The moment the man boarded the ship, there was another move in the darkness. He was afraid that if he was one step behind, his fate would be taken away. The two people in front of him and behind him
We boarded the ship almost at the same time.
"Little brother, these two people in the Calamity Palace are full of black energy. This is definitely because they will encounter unexpected events recently. Look at them both with high nose bones and evil eyes. They are not kind people, nor are they wanted criminals.
You are a gangster who often kills people and seizes treasures. I’m not scolding you, little brother. Don’t get me wrong. You don’t call it killing people and seizing treasures, but you call good deeds rewarded... In short, these two people have fierce faces, and the Palace of Calamity is obscured by black energy.
, it seems that the boat in the river does not welcome these two people very much."
The old Taoist priest just finished speaking.
The two people on the boat suddenly exclaimed, and the boat under their feet seemed to have turned into a mud boat. It fell into the water twice, and the two people drowned in the river on the spot, with no bones left.
If the water in this river is formed by the rainwater from the sky, then no one can escape the disaster of falling into the water.
"?"
"!"
Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest speechlessly.
He was convinced.
The old Taoist priest has definitely opened his mouth.
"Old Taoist, please tell me honestly, how many times have you opened your mouth? In Taoist temples and temples, I don't think the magical instruments that have been opened twice are as powerful as your mouth. Others are talking about gold, but you are just saying gold.
Whoever wants to die can die."
"Since your words, Old Tao, are so effective, why don't you, Old Tao, point out a clear way to make a fortune for me? In the southeast, northwest, where is my tailwind?"
The old Taoist priest was confused by Jin An's words: "Little brother, don't you have a great and beautiful career when you get rich? Why do you have to sacrifice the near for the distant?"
Jin An's brow muscles twitched: "Go, go, go."
The old Taoist priest was interested and continued to ask Jin An: "Little brother, what did you write in the letter you wrote to the beautiful girl that day? Why did the beautiful girl not only not get angry after reading it, but also coaxed you to marry a Ye Niang outside?
Are you so happy to give you the Kunwu knife?"
The old Taoist priest has been holding this matter in his mind for several days.
I've been feeling itchy all the time.
I really want to know what Jin An wrote that day. Was it an acrostic love poem? It made the beautiful girl so happy.
Jin Anjian glared at the old Taoist priest: "Old Taoist, why do you talk so much? Since you have so many reasons, why not first think about how we should board the ship."
"Yesterday, you were the only one who saw with your own eyes how the ancient corpse dressed in gold and jade robes boarded the ship. Think carefully about the details. It will be dawn soon. As soon as it dawns, the old toad immortal will leave."
Facing Jin An's urging, the old Taoist priest twirled his beard and smiled calmly this time, and said slowly and confidently: "Hey, Taoist, I really have an idea."
"Little brother, there is a saying in the Taoist family, 'The best is like water, and virtue carries everything'."
"The two people who boarded the ship just now are not kind people. They do a lot of wicked things in daily life, and they will be wicked ghosts even when they die."
"We deserve to be honest and behave openly and aboveboard. As long as we don't have guilty consciences, even if we can't board the ship, the Toad Immortal is a righteous immortal who protects justice in the world. He is not an evil immortal. He will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. At most, we will be kicked off the ship.
.”
The old Taoist priest's words made sense, and Jin An nodded in approval.
Then here comes the problem.
How to verify whether the old Taoist priest's guess is true?
The old Taoist priest rubbed his hands and laughed, saying that it is not easy. Little brother, you are upright and slay demons. You have so many merits that you can bring an extra ship of people with you. What's more important is that little brother, you also formed a friendship with the toad fairy during the day.
As a result of a good relationship, the Toad Fairy also promised to repay you, little brother, a hundred and a thousand peaches. Even if the Toad Fairy does not return the peaches, he will not harm you, little brother.
"This is called unintentional planting of willow trees."
"Doing good without intention is truly good."
"Little brother, you have formed a good relationship with Little Toad Fairy, which means there is cause and effect. As a senior master, Toad Fairy must repay this cause and effect."
After hearing the bad idea from the old Taoist priest, Jin An felt so toothache that he wanted to punch the old Taoist priest, but he was also worried that the old Taoist priest's old arms and legs would not be able to withstand his punch, and he would lose arms and legs by then.
At this moment, Jin An was suddenly startled.
Avenue induction!
Yin Deyi!
"Sharp sword?"
When the old Taoist priest saw Jin An suddenly mentioning sharpening his sword, he asked his little brother what was wrong.
Jin An frowned, then said it was nothing.
Avenue induction!
Yin Deyi!
Yin Deyi!
Yin Deyi!
Yin Deyi!
When he sensed a large number of Dao Senses approaching, Jin An could no longer calm down this time. Did he encounter some trouble or danger while sharpening his sword?
Jin An, who was eager to save his disciple, no longer hesitated this time. He walked out of his hiding place and strode straight towards the boat suspended on the river.
"Little brother, please wait for me." Seeing that Jin An's expression suddenly changed, the old Taoist priest also hurriedly caught up with him.
Boom, Jin An jumped onto the boat.
Alas, the old Taoist priest also got on the boat.
A magical thing happened. This time the boat successfully carried two people and no one fell into the water.
The old Taoist priest really said that the best is as good as water, and the virtues carry all things.
To be continued...
