Chapter 101 Earth Eye and the Old Taoist Priest of the Arctic Pavilion.
Chapter 101, Earth Vision and the Old Taoist Priest of Arctic Pavilion.
Looking at the stars in the sky, I miss the carefree life in the real world, where I don't have to think about anything!
"Brother! Let me go meet an old Taoist priest and get rid of those soldiers by the way." Earth Eye Tong asked me for orders.
"Okay! Pay attention to the Asura Heaven's minions scattered in Jinling City, and don't let them entangle you. It's best to find a physical body to possess and pretend to be the Bodhisattva incarnation of the underworld. This will make things easier." I said slightly.
After thinking about it, I agreed to him.
Di Yantong ordered him to go to do some errands. Shui Mo and I walked a few steps and caught up with Qiuyue and the others, and followed their sisters obediently.
I heard that going shopping with a woman is still a technical job.
You have to talk less and listen more!
This is what I heard from the bottom of my heart when a few young freshmen chatted together after a date...
I don’t know what happened today? Qiuyue suddenly wanted to imitate the sour taste of literati and poets, and insisted that I accompany her to rent a boat on the Qinhuai River, and then the two of them would make tea together and take a night tour of the Qinhuai River...
Hey! It’s beautiful, but I want to be angry.
Fortunately, I met Shui Mo and Yu Yan at the door, otherwise, I would have endured it!
With her apprentice and her little sisters here, she would more or less show some kindness to me, the second secretary of the No. 1 Scholar Building.
Why do you say I am the second secretary? Because there was already someone there before I went there.
He's a professor at Central University, and he's the boss's personal secretary and bodyguard!
Therefore, I can only be the second secretary of the second boss.
Second Secretary! The staff at Zhuangyuan Building all call me that behind my back.
Of course, when they meet face to face, they will omit the incongruous word "Secretary". I am still very happy about this.
……&……&……&……
The Qinhuai River is still the same Qinhuai River, but the gentleman is no longer the gentleman! He is now an arty Confucian scholar.
The boat sailed slowly along the clear Qinhuai River, and we were all very happy.
We were talking and laughing along the way, and my sense of loyalty was really strong!
Taking advantage of the divine wind, we arrived at the Arctic Pavilion in a short while.
He knocked on the mountain door of Beiji Pavilion. After waiting for a while, a little Taoist priest came to open the door.
It's the little Taoist priest aged 12 or 13 who was almost killed by ink painting last time.
He opened the door a crack, just enough for him to stick his head out.
"Who are you looking for? What's the matter?" He checked the Diyantong very cautiously.
Looking up and down, he gradually became impatient.
The clairvoyant's hands were empty, and before he could answer the clairvoyant's reply, he was about to close the door.
Seeing him retracting his head, he was about to close the door.
The Earth Eye smiled. You can't force this matter, you have to be smart. After all, you are a mortal cultivator now! Hahahaha!
So he hurriedly called to the little Taoist priest and said: "Little master, please wait a moment! Look at this thing in my hand, but where are the missing items from Guibao Pavilion?"
The little Taoist priest just stretched out his head and caught a glimpse of the gold and diamond statue of Lao Tzu on Di Yan Tong's hand. He immediately became dumbfounded and stared motionlessly at the thing in Di Yan Tong's hand...!
He really couldn't imagine: The master hid this thing so tightly, how could it get into his hands????...!
Di Yantong looked at his dumbfounded expression, smiled knowingly, and said: "Little master, don't you want to invite the young man to come in for a talk on your master's behalf? Otherwise, you might as well ask your master."
Being reminded by Di Yan Tong, the little Taoist priest quickly apologized to Di Yan Tong and said: "Sir, please wait a moment. I will go and report to the master later. Please wait a moment."
Seeing the little Taoist priest unable to touch the ground, half floating and half running inside, I thought: This old guy is not an ordinary Taoist priest! The disciples he accepted are not human beings. At least, they are half-dead living dead!
After seeing the apprentice, I had a general understanding of the master's character.
The Earth Eye opened his spiritual power again and looked at the Arctic Pavilion from the inside to the outside again, so as not to be tricked by others when chatting later.
Because there are indeed many puzzling places in this Arctic Pavilion.
It is puzzling that he is obviously a monk, but he has many interactions with aristocratic families like the Chang family in the Republic of China, and also has many contacts with the military!
Uh! When he just went in to pick up the golden statue inlaid with diamonds, he didn't take a closer look at this small Arctic Pavilion!
It turns out that this place is laid out according to the layout of the Big Dipper. Every tree, every stone, and every house all coincides with the layout of the Three Talents and Seven Stars... A kind of thatch is planted in the open space in the middle. Under the lush thatch, in fact,
Quietly buried a piece of the Heaven and Earth Wuji Bagua Mirror...!
You won’t know until you see it, but you will be shocked when you see it!
Why did he want to raise ghosts? Why did he set up such a mysterious Qimen Dunjia situation? And why did he hide so many treasures in the Arctic Pavilion?...?
There are many reasons why I have been confused by the Earth Vision.
"Sir! Master, please come to the attic to serve tea. Invite me inside." Just when the people were seeing something incredible, the little Taoist priest floated out again.
This time, he opened the door, walked outside, and politely asked the Earth Eye to come in and talk.
Di Yantong followed the ghost Taoist priest and went up to the attic due east as if nothing had happened.
This is a small attic that looks like a folk house in the Tang and Song Dynasties. The first floor is a utility room, and the second floor is the living room. The area is about forty square meters, but it is separated into three small rooms of more than ten square meters.
The room you enter when you go upstairs is the living room, and the room inside the living room is a study room and a bedroom.
Because the living room is rectangular, I estimate that the two small rooms at the back should be cubes.
There are three floors in the attic, but when I walked upstairs, I didn't find that the stairs lead to the third floor. If my guess was correct, the stairs to the third floor should be inside the bedroom.
It seems that the secret of Arctic Pavilion should be on the third floor.
I just thought about it, but I should take the time to touch it and see what happens.
Entering the living room, the ghost Taoist priest told his master that the guests had arrived and went downstairs.
The old Taoist priest is a true Taoist, and he does not have the fairy-like appearance with white beard and white hair in Xianxia novels.
He politely asked Earth Sightseeing to sit down.
This old Taoist priest is a bit interesting. The coffee table and chairs in the living room are all made of woven bamboo strips, which makes the whole hut look very elegant and exquisite.
There are not many things in the living room, except for a copper teapot, a tea box, and three or two bamboo tube-like teacups, there is nothing extra.
It can be seen from the roughness of the objects that these things were not made by outsiders, but were mostly tinkered by the old Taoist priests themselves.
Except for the fact that his eyebrows are a little white, everything else about the old Taoist priest is normal. He looks about sixty years old, full of energy, his eyes are bright, he speaks with great energy, and his teeth are white and neat.
The emerald hairpin sticking out of his glossy black hair told Di Yantong that he was an accomplished man who ate vegetarian food and refrained from killing animals.
"Sir, please sit down! I heard from my young apprentice that the master has the magic weapon of my Arctic Pavilion - the golden body of Taishang Laojun. I wonder if this is true?" The old Taoist priest made tea for Diyantong.
He said as if nothing happened.
"That's what happened." Di Yantong saw that the old Taoist priest had different opinions but could still be so calm, so he also became careless.
"Hahahaha! Where do you come from, sir?" The old Taoist priest said irrelevant nonsense while gently placing the brewed tea on the bamboo coffee table in front of Diyantong.
"Come from the same place." Di Yantong said with a smile.
"Sir, can you let me see the golden body of Lao Jun? Maybe it's not my own." The old Taoist priest wanted to inspect the goods.
"Okay!" Di Yantong took out the golden body of Laojun from his arms and gently placed it on the coffee table woven with bamboo strips.
"Sir, please have some tea! Mingqian tea from Laojun Mountain in Fujian Province. The taste is not bad." The old Taoist priest gently took the golden body of Laojun and played with it while casually urging Di Yantong to drink tea.
"But Gui cut the lost object?" Di Yantong took a sip of tea and asked casually.
"Hmm! It looks like. Arctic Pavilion had such a magic weapon before, but it has been discarded for many years, so the old man is not sure whether it is this one!" The old Taoist priest kept playing with Lao Jun.
Jin Shen said deliberately ambiguously.
"You should take a closer look. After all, the thief Xiaosheng bumped into on the road said that he indeed stole it from the attic of Beiji Pavilion, so Xiaosheng hurriedly sent it over. After all, this is not an ordinary one.
Object." Di Yantong took a sip of tea and said to the old Taoist priest with a smile.
"If I take a closer look, it looks a bit like the golden body of Laojun that has been missing for a long time in Beiji Pavilion!" The old Taoist priest still pretended not to admit that it was his thing.
After all, this thing is worth a lot of money! It weighs a full five or six kilograms! It can't be exchanged for banknotes, but it's a lot of money.
The old Taoist priest was unwilling to admit that it belonged to him. In fact, he just fearfully guessed that he still had many treasures!
In fact, Jian Tong went through all the objects in the small attic on the northwest side: emeralds, corals, agates, ancient coins, jade, gold bars, ingots...as well as U.S. bills and other valuable things.
!
Hehehehe! No wonder the old Taoist priest wants to have good relations with people from all walks of life! He is not as simple as an ordinary Taoist priest.
"Otherwise, maybe one of the thieves remembered it wrong. I'll look for someone else to take a look!" Di Yantong said pretending to be regretful.
"Oh! I remembered, it is indeed something from the Arctic Pavilion. Look, there is the mark of the Arctic Pavilion under this old man's golden body!" The old Taoist priest couldn't pretend anymore, so he looked at the ground pretending to be surprised.
Tong said.
"That's good! But, old man, it's very unsafe to put this kind of thing in the Arctic Pavilion." Di Yantong said with a smile.
In fact, he also knows.
It is simply impossible for ordinary people to take these treasures out of the Arctic Pavilion, unless they are gods.
"Sir, that's right. It's not safe to put this golden body of Laojun in the Arctic Pavilion, but it's not suitable to put it somewhere else. After all, this is the golden body of Laojun! It can only be kept in a Taoist temple.
It's more appropriate to make offerings." The old Taoist priest said with difficulty after hearing what Di Jiantong said.
"What the old man said is right, I'm going to leave now." Di Yantong saw that the old Taoist priest was very tight-lipped and couldn't say anything, so he stood up and left.
"Hey, old man, let me see you off." The old Taoist priest stood up and was about to see off his guests.
He didn't even say a word of thanks, and he seemed to be afraid that the Earth Eye would stay for a while longer! This kind of behavior made the Earth Eye more and more suspicious of the Arctic Pavilion.
There must be something going on here, otherwise it wouldn't be so abnormal!
The earth-sighted man thought this, and rolled his eyes, realizing that he had a plan in mind.
