Chapter 918: What the people want, all people petition
Five days have passed since the Rain Fairy prayed for rain, and the whole city is full of ruins waiting to be renovated.
In these days, besides the construction after the flood, the most discussed topics are the Wu Zang Taoist Temple and Jin'an. On that day, Jin'an's shocking feat of slaying Yuxian in the air was witnessed by the people in the whole city.
Another astonishing feat as killing the immortals is praying for the sun to drive away the storm.
These two things happened together, and the people of Fucheng realized belatedly that the Taoist priest Jin'an, who was usually approachable and gentle to everyone without showing off, was actually eating haggis noodles and fireworks with them.
A human being who hides in the city.
He can kill immortals, fly into the sky and escape from the earth, and can compete with the power of heaven. What is this if not a god?
In fact, what everyone is most grateful for is Jin'an's last-minute intervention, which resolved the biggest crisis in Fucheng. In addition, after the incident, the government came forward to rectify the name of Wu Zang Taoist Temple and arrested and killed a large number of people from Sanxian Temple.
Its status in the minds of local people has jumped to the status of the first Taoist temple.
"You only know that Taoist Master Jin'an can pray for clear weather, but you certainly don't know that Taoist Master Chen of Wuzang Taoist Temple can also pray for rain." In the city where everything is waiting to be renovated, several strong men were cleaning up the mud and debris while talking to relieve their boredom.
.
"Does Master Chen still pray for rain?"
"How come we haven't heard of this?"
"Have any of you heard of it?"
Others shook their heads and said they had never heard of this: "Tiezi, are you bragging to our brothers?"
The man who was called Tiezi was not in a hurry to defend himself, and snorted coldly: "What can I make up about this? Many people saw it with their own eyes when we were at the dock that day. You can find out this matter just by asking around."
It’s true or not. I happened to be near the pier at the time.”
It seemed that Tiezi's tone was not false, so everyone urged him to tell Tiezi about the specific situation.
Tiezi paused proudly for a while, and then told what happened in a leisurely manner: "Master Fuyin was very aware of the situation and had long discovered that the Three Immortals Temple was suspicious. That day, Taoist priests Jin An and Chen who specially brought the Wu Zang Taoist Temple were there to observe the Three Immortals Temple.
The ritual of opening an altar in the Immortal Temple and Demonic Path to pray for rain."
"This is like slapping the Sanxian Temple in the face in public, so the Sanxian Temple and the Five Zang Taoist Temple started a fight to pray for rain and sunshine..."
Similar topics were still taking place in teahouses and storytellers across the city. The common people were shocked and exclaimed by the ups and downs of the fighting between the Five Zang Taoist Temple and the Three Immortals Temple.
Not long after, some sneaky figures appeared at the entrances of some bookstores, calligraphy and painting shops, and they took out little people's books, calligraphy and painting sales to everyone they met.
"The Rain Immortal and the Flood Flooding the Taoist Priest Jin'an"!
"Taoist Priest Jin'an enters the tiger's den alone to fight the real and fake Yuxian"!
"Taoist Priest Jin'an used the Taoist technique of Qingqing to defeat the case of the proprietress of Liangji tea merchant being possessed by a water ghost"!
Another example is "The Picture of Jin'an Taoist Master Conquering Demons and Protecting the Way, and the Picture of Rain Immortal Distributing Rain to Turn Clouds and Rain"!
As for the Wu Zang Taoist Temple, which is the center of popular discussion among the people, the streets outside, the entrance, and the inside of the Taoist temple are all filled with flower baskets. In the past five days, there has been an endless stream of people coming to thank Jin'an for saving the city.
Not only was the Taoist temple crowded, but Yongle Square was also packed to the brim.
These flower baskets hand-woven by the common people and the growing votive incense represent the greatest sincerity and hope that Jin'an will recover soon and wake up from his coma.
After receiving the pilgrims who came to pay their vows and send flower baskets, all the Taoist temple officials, old and weak, were so tired that their backs ached. As the night fell, Jin An was still unconscious lying on the bed in Jin'an's wing.
The old Taoist priest took Yuyangzi's care of Jin'an and asked Yuyangzi to take care of Ye Fei and Ziyue's brother and sister. He would take care of Jin'an in the middle of the night.
"Little brother, if you know something in bed, please wake up as soon as possible. Don't let us live in fear every day, and don't let the people in the city who insist on coming to pray for you every day wait too long."
"The hearts of hundreds of thousands of people are concerned about you, little brother. Little brother, you don't know how much you are now supported by the people in Fucheng. Every day, people from Fucheng come to watch and fill you with fresh flower baskets. The incense is kept flowing day and night. Everyone
Everyone is praying for you to wake up soon, even the sea outside the pier is full of river lanterns, everyone is praying for you, little brother, and praying for you to recover and wake up soon."
The old Taoist priest squeezed out a few tears.
"In addition to these flower baskets, I also wish to offer incense and blessings with river lanterns. Even your heroic deeds of not being afraid of the female devil and sacrificing your life for the righteousness of Fucheng, little brother, are also spread throughout the city. The people of Fucheng are praising you for your kindness, little brother. I even
I brought all the little books to you, little brother..."
The old Taoist priest who was crying about Jin'an's safety one moment, looked around and secretly took out a few things from his arms, fearing that they would be seen by Yu Yangzi or Ye Fei and Ziyue's brothers and sisters.
In addition to the little book, there is also a thick scroll that is carefully folded and unfolded as long as the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". It is the "Picture of Jin'an Taoist Conquering Demons and Protecting the Dao, and the Picture of the Entering Rain Immortal's Distribution of Rain Turning Clouds and Rain".
"Little brother, if you wake up early, you can see how much the people support you. By the way, you can reimburse me for these expenses. These are all the coffins I saved by selling yellow talismans."
The vigil was boring and long, and the old Taoist priest stayed up all night reading and was full of energy. Early the next morning, Yu Yangzi came to take over the old Taoist priest's place. He saw the old Taoist priest walking like a tiger, with a rosy complexion and a bright spirit. There was no sign of staying up late at all.
Holding his fists solemnly: "Daozhang Chen looks good, but has he made a breakthrough in his cultivation? Congratulations."
Old Taoist priest: "..."
The old Taoist priest felt guilty and didn't know how to answer. Yuyangzi looked behind the old Taoist priest in surprise: "Headmaster, you finally woke up!"
The old Taoist priest turned around in surprise and saw that Jin An had sat up from the bed.
Jin An, who had been in a coma for several days, only experienced a brief period of confusion before regaining his clarity of thought: "How many days was I in a coma? How did I return to the Five Zang Taoist Temple?"
The old Taoist priest who didn't know how to answer Yu Yangzi took the lead and said: "That day, the old Taoist priest saw you unconscious and falling into the sea, and I hurriedly asked Mr. Fu Yin to borrow some navy brothers to salvage you."
After talking about what happened after Jin An fell into coma, the old Taoist priest and Yu Yangzi asked about what happened before Jin An fell into coma and asked how Jin An was injured so seriously.
When talking about his injury, Jin An was silent at first. He looked at the steaming incense in the Taoist temple. He was silent for a while before telling the truth: "I was struck by the true meaning of Lei Dao."
"Backlash?" Both of them looked at Jin An curiously.
Jin An was silent again, then stood up, walked outside the door and looked up at the vast sky after the rain and sunny days: "I had selfish intentions that day, I thought that the typhoon would be waiting to cut the sword that day, even though I knew that the three immortals had impure intentions.
It’s still a step too late to take action.”
"When I used the Thunder God Fist Seal to command the Thirty-Six Thunder Gods of the Thunder Department, the Brilliant Shinto shone upon me and knew that I had a guilty conscience, so it backfired on me and bore the weight of the Shinto."
The old Taoist priest and Yu Yangzi looked at Jin An's lonely and lonely figure. They looked at each other, and then sighed. They didn't know how to enlighten Jin An about this for a while.
The old Taoist priest walked up to Jin An and patted Jin An on the shoulder: "Little brother, have you ever heard of a saying? Good deeds outweigh demerits. Thunder and bright sun can make people's hearts unable to escape, so everyone in the world is afraid of thunder and punishment. Lei Bu
The Thirty-sixth Thunder God did not arrest you little brother, which shows that even God recognizes that your merits outweigh your faults this time."
Uncle Yuyangzi also walked up to Jin An at this time, and also patted Jin An on the shoulder: "Have you heard another sentence, Headmaster? What the people want, all people petition. In fact, during the five days when Headmaster was unconscious,
, the people from Fucheng came to the Taoist temple to offer incense day and night. The temple was filled with flower baskets woven by the people themselves, and the pier was filled with blessing river lanterns. If the master had not intervened to stop the conspiracy of the Three Immortals Temple, one hundred thousand sacrifices would have been made this time.
The people's conspiracy will succeed."
Mea.
There was a sheep cry, and the goats in the sheep house ran over in excitement when they saw Jin An wake up.
Ye Fei and Ziyue brother and sister also ran out of the room one after another when they heard the commotion, shouting happily to the headmaster, and the brother and sister flew into Jin An's arms.
Looking at the warm reunion scene in front of him, the old Taoist priest patted Jin An's shoulder again: "Little brother, you are a human being of flesh and blood, not a saint. If it were anyone else that day, including me, the old Taoist, they may not be able to do as well as you, little brother.
OK. You sacrificed yourself to save a city of 100,000 people. Behind the 100,000 people are more than 100,000 families. You have done a very good job."
Jin An was moved: "Thank you everyone for your concern. Don't worry, I'm fine."
After saying that, Jin An seemed to recall something and looked at the old Taoist priest: "Besides offering incense, sending flower baskets, and river lanterns, did anything else happen while I was in coma? Last night, I seemed to hear the old Taoist priest talking to me.
When you talk, you seem to have mentioned the real and fake Yuxian?"
"Dragon Girl Yuxian still has twin sisters that haven't been eliminated?" Jin An's eyes turned cold, murderous, and vowed to eradicate the root cause.
