?41 The luck-changing talisman of the koi
After waiting for a few more days, Li Chu still did not see any assassins from Green Wing brothel. Instead, a professional team arrived.
On this day, a group of four young Taoist priests came to the Yuhang county government office.
They were all dressed in green and white Daoist robes with sleeves and legs tied up. There were three men and one woman, and they were all full of energy.
It was only after he handed in the card that he found out that these people were from the shenxu temple outside Zhaoge city and were the disciples of Taoist Chang shouchong.
Gongsun Zhe and Chang shouchong were close friends, and he had written to Chang shouchong for help before he left Zhaoge.
It was a pity that Chang shouchong had not returned from his travels at that time. A few days ago, he had returned to the shenxu temple and saw Gongsun Zhe’s letter for help. He immediately sent four of his disciples to help and listen to Gongsun Zhe’s orders.
Gongsun Zhe was overjoyed.
He introduced Li Chu to them, and when he said that he came from deyun temple of ten miles slope outside the town, the disciples of the shenxu temple showed some disapproval in their eyes.
The shenxu temple was a famous Taoist sect with a thousand years of inheritance. It had a high status and was a first-class sect in the Jianghu, second only to the twelve immortal sects. It was normal for him to be a little arrogant when facing a village Taoist.
Li Chu nodded politely.
He had always been very polite and didn’t care what others thought of him.
The leading young Taoist priest from the shenxu temple said directly,”Since we’re here, we’ll naturally be responsible for Lord Gongsun’s safety. It’s best if miscellaneous people don’t interfere.”
He did not even look at Li Chu when he spoke.
Although they were both Daoist sects, the difference between the two sects was like a natural chasm. Not everyone could be called a Daoist friend.
Gongsun Zhe’s expression changed. He was slightly displeased as he looked at his daughter beside him.
Gongsun Rou stood up and said,”little Daoist priest li saved our lives. He’s my father and daughter’s great benefactor.” Although you Daoist priests are distinguished disciples, you’re new here and are not familiar with the situation here. You might need Daoist priest Li JR.”
The young Daoist’s attitude towards her was rather gentle as he slowly said, ” “Master ordered us to come here and do whatever you want. If miss Gongsun insists on keeping him, we naturally have no objection. I just don’t think it’s necessary for Lao Ai to do so.”
Gongsun Rou’s eyebrows moved, as if she wanted to say something.
it’s good that I’m not needed here, ” Li Chu said. I want to go back to deyun temple too.
He was indeed happy to have someone take his place.
These days, he didn’t level up or earn any money. Other than nourishing his kidney, he didn’t gain anything.
Although Gongsun Rou was unwilling, since Li Chu wanted to leave, there was nothing she could do. She could only reluctantly send Li Chu off.
There was an ugly and brawny Daoist priest in the group from the shenxu temple. When he saw this scene, he mumbled indignantly in a low voice,”Pretty boy.”
He must have recalled some unhappy memories.
The young Daoist priest in the lead looked at Gongsun Rou’s graceful back, and a touch of cold arrogance flashed through his eyes.
Hmph.
......
Li Chu felt relieved when he saw the red flowers and green willows on the ten-mile slope from afar.
He was finally back at home.
Daydreaming in the main hall, eating with his master, and then going to the Liu family’s Ghost House to level up. What a happy and comfortable pace of life.
But soon, he was stunned.
It was as if he was looking at an unfamiliar scene.
The renovation of deyun temple had been completed, and the scale was nearly twice as large as the original, mainly the expansion of the backyard.
However, this wasn’t to the extent that he felt unfamiliar. What was unfamiliar was Yingying.
The courtyard in front was filled with people, and the line had already reached the door.
This place was like a bustling city.
Was it still the deyun temple that he was familiar with?
When the women in the queue saw Li Chu, they suddenly burst out in a chaotic scream. Some of the more courageous ones even rushed over.
Li Chu’s hair stood on end.
Danger!
He turned around and ran.
After a long time, he finally got rid of the crowd and flipped into the front yard.
Her hairpin was crooked, her clothes were in a mess, and there were red stains on her face.
Good fellow.
He had never been in such a sorry state, not even when he was facing the Night Parade of a hundred ghosts.
When he returned to the Taoist temple, he saw Yu Qi ‘an sitting cross-legged on a futon, looking like a celestial being. Xiao Yue ‘er was dressed like a woman and was sitting obediently at the side, holding a small basket.
They all looked exhausted.
The people who were offering incense had all gone after Li Chu, so they took a short break.
The koi girl looked at Li Chu and fell into her memories. After a while, she smiled.”Master? You’re back.”
Li Chu was touched to see that she still remembered him.
Looking at Xiao Yue ‘er’s dress, he asked curiously,”Lady Yue ‘er has also become a Daoist priest?”
“I just asked her to wear this out to help with the reception. When you’re not around, everyone likes to look for Xiao Yue ‘er.”
Yu Qi ‘an said, his tone a little disappointed.
It was probably because the former idol of middle-aged and elderly women in Yuhang Town had suddenly fallen to the third most popular place in deyun temple, which had caused a huge gap in their popularity.
...
“Why?” Li Chu asked.
“Because they all like to hear me give them my blessings, hehe.” Xiao Yue ‘er said with a smile.
at first, an old woman saw Yue ‘er in a Taoist temple and told her about her family. Little Yue’ er said ‘wish you all the best’, and as expected, she returned with a big fat Boy.
“What?”
“Oh, it’s her daughter-in-law’s.” Yu Qi ‘an quickly explained,”after that, a few more people received Xiao Yue’ er’s blessings and their wishes were fulfilled.” Little Yue ‘er has become famous in the vicinity. Now, if anyone has any wishes, they have to come and tell her and ask for a luck-changing talisman.”
Li Chu looked at the basket in Xiao Yue ‘er’s hands. It was indeed filled with intricately folded talismans.
“Xiao Yue ‘er knows how to draw talismans?” he was a little surprised.
He was surprised because deyun temple had never sold talismans before.
He would not.
And his master Qianqian would never be distracted by these small paths.
“I won’t,” As expected, Xiao Yue ‘er shook her head in denial.
...
“She’s a koi fish, so she can just draw casually.” Yu Qi ‘an stroked his beard and smiled. now, the luck-changing talismans drawn by Xiao Yue’ er can be sold for 500 Wen each.
Li Chu was even more surprised this time.
The two talismans were worth one tael of silver. Looking at the number of devotees outside, he could probably sell hundreds of them a day.
This was faster than picking up money.
He couldn’t help but hold Xiao Yue ‘er’s hand and said, ” “You’ve worked hard!”
Xiao Yue ‘er was a little confused, but she felt happy that she was being praised.
Of course, Xiao Yue ‘er’s reputation was only a small part of the many visitors. The majority of them came because of Li Chu’s fame.
Due to the disturbance caused by Li Chu’s first appearance, the master and disciple decided to close the temple door for the time being.
Li Chu thought that he would have to put up a sign outside tomorrow that said ” respect the Taoist, and offer incense in a civilized manner “.
Well, Yingluo had to add that touching was prohibited, and those who violated it would be fined.
Heavy punishment.
He had just closed the door and was about to go back to the backyard to rest when he heard a knock on the door.
“I’m Sorry, we’re closed today. Please come earlier tomorrow.” Li Chu said.
“Li Chu? Is that you, Li Chu? Open the door, I need your help with something!” A surprised voice came from outside the door.
It was Wang longqi.
Li Chu’s heart skipped a beat, as if he could see friendship shining in front of his eyes.
