Chapter 22 Transferred

Wang Dong and Xiao Daotong walked into the inner courtyard of Shengyun Temple, and soon saw a tall but slim Taoist priest in his early forties.

The little Taoist introduced to Wang Dong that this was their master, named Ma Dexian.

Wang Dong hurriedly saluted.

Taoist Ma looked Wang Dong up and down, seemed to think that he was a good-looking man, saluted Wang Dong, and asked, "I don't know where the elder came from? What is his name and surname, and which school of Taoism he practiced? "

Wang Dong had already done research before crossing over. He knew that the registration form of Taoist temples was not that simple. Generally, the other party would check the Taoist scriptures carefully, and then ask the wandering Taoist priest's name, native place, Dharma sect, teacher's inheritance, and seniority. The host will also be asked to recite a passage of classics to verify that the host is indeed a Taoist priest.After all, Taoist temples accepting pending orders means letting a person come to eat and live for nothing. If the assessment is not stricter, all fake Taoist priests will come to seek refuge, and a Taoist temple will easily be overwhelmed.

Wang Dong had already prepared for this, and immediately explained his fabricated identity, claiming to be a Taoist priest registered in a certain place in Lianghu, and at the same time took out his own Taoism.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was born during a religious uprising. He knew how terrible religion was. Jianyuan attached great importance to religious management. In the 15th year of Hongwu, he established institutions to manage Buddhist and Taoist religious personnel. In the Ming Dynasty, it was difficult to become a registered Taoist priest. It is not easy. You need to register with the Daohui Department in the county, the Daozhengsi Department in the prefecture, the Daoji Department in the province, and all the way to the Daolu Department in the central government.

Anyway, Wang Dong only needs to stay in this time and space for three months. With the speed of information dissemination in the Ming Dynasty, using fake documents is basically not afraid of being found out, so Wang Dong asked Jiang Yuqing to help him find some materials of Taoism in the Ming Dynasty. Chen Chunsheng asked Chen Chunsheng to help him restore a set of Taoist books of the Ming Dynasty. Because it is required to imitate as much as possible, all the paper, pen and ink in this book of Taoist books have been verified. It took Wang Dongxiao 5000 yuan to get it done, but Chen Chunsheng got it wrong. Foggy, I don't know why Wang Dong spends so much energy getting a set of fake antiques that haven't been aged.However, the finished product turned out to be quite good. Wang Dong got the copy of the Taoism that Chen Chunsheng helped him find a certain fake maker to restore. Anyway, he basically couldn't see the problem.

Ma Dexian had read the Taoist scriptures, and tested Wang Dong's memorization of a Taoist classic. Wang Dong, who had been prepared for a long time, recited a passage of scriptures fluently.

Ma Dexian nodded in satisfaction and said: "Wang Daoyou is indeed a famous disciple. He can have such a bearing at a young age. In the future, he will be a person who revitalizes the Taoism and is famous all over the world."

He turned to his apprentice and said, "Prepare a dormitory for Taoist Wang, it should be quiet and elegant."

Wang Dong thanked him repeatedly, but he was a little surprised in his heart that he successfully placed the order so easily. According to his previous experience, it is impossible to pretend to be a Taoist priest to place an order at a Taoist temple without encountering a few level tasks.

The little Taoist took Wang Dong to the inner courtyard, a quiet and elegant hut, and Wang Dong was very satisfied after seeing it.Naturally, a complete set should be prepared for the Taoist priest. Wang Dong and other young Taoist priests left and hurriedly took out the futons and other things they had prepared in modern times and arranged them.

Not long after, Ma Dexian brought a box of snacks to Wang Dong's hut and asked Wang Dong to use the snacks.

Wang Dong picked up a piece of pastry, and the system didn't show the task option at all. At that moment, Wang Dong was a little moved. It was the first time he encountered such a smooth situation after five missions. He suddenly felt as if he had changed his luck. Ma Dexian in front of him also looked much more pleasing to the eye.

Nice guy.

Wang Dong quickly took out a box of tea leaves and said, "Master Ma, I also brought some tea leaves with me, why don't we make tea and talk about it in detail."

Ma Dexian smiled and said, "It's so good."

Wang Dong happily took out another purple sand pot and a set of purple sand tea sets. Of course, these were all bought by him in modern society. Handicrafts cost only a few hundred yuan. It's very delicate, and Wang Dong took it out on purpose because the system didn't warn him that Ma Dexian was in danger. Wang Dong just wanted to show his financial resources, so that he could play his identity as a descendant of a famous family more realistically.

Wang Dong brewed a pot of tea, and Ma Dexian looked at Wang Dong's skillful and graceful movements, and couldn't help giving him a sneaky look in his heart.Not everyone has the opportunity to learn the elegant thing of making tea. Wang Dong can make it so proficiently, at least it shows that he often has tea to drink.

After Wang Dong poured the hot tea into the teacup, the purple sand teacup unexpectedly showed patterns of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum when heated. Ma Dexian's eyes went straight when he saw it.

"This... what kind of cup is this?"

Wang Dong said with a smile: "This is a teacup made by my family teacher. There are patterns drawn on the cup with overseas fairy recipes. When it is cold, the pattern will be hidden in the cup, but it will appear when it is hot. It is a small ear."

Ma Dexian opened his mouth wide in surprise, held up the teacup and inspected it carefully for a long time, and couldn't help praising: "Master Ling is really a master, with this talent, you can tell that he has extensive knowledge."

A color-changing teacup for five yuan on Taobao and free shipping can have this effect. Wang Dong was also secretly amused, but he quickly nodded and said with a regretful expression: "It's a pity that my teacher doesn't want to chase fame and fortune, and he will end up in Linquan, Dade A great talent is unknown to the outside world all his life.”

Hearing the words, Ma Dexian couldn't help sighing: "Oh, it's a pity that I can't see an expert."

At this moment, a Taoist priest suddenly broke into the room and whispered something to Ma Dexian. Ma Dexian was shocked, put down his teacup and got up, and said to Wang Dong, "Don't wait, Mr. Wang, I have something urgent outside, just come as soon as you go."

After he finished speaking, he left. Wang Dong was confused, fearing that there might be some danger in his heart, so he hurriedly said, "What is it?

Ma Taoist left in a hurry, but there was no time to respond.

Wang Dong hurriedly followed him, and they came to the front hall of Shengyun Temple, only to see a middle-aged fat man standing in the middle of the hall with a few people dressed as slaves, the fat man stuck his waist and said: "Where is Taoist Ma? My father-in-law has something to tell him, why not come out?"

Hearing the fat man's words, Wang Dong couldn't help lifting his spirits. Next door is Cao Guogong's mansion, and the man the fat man mentioned is probably Li Jinglong.

Ma Dexian hurriedly cupped his hands forward and saluted the fat man: "Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun, Xiaodao has met Master Zhou Fuzhou."

The fat man smiled and said, "I'm just a housekeeper, what kind of a master, Ma Dexian, this time it's my father-in-law who wants me to pass a message."

Ma Dexian bowed even lower: "I don't know what orders Cao Guogong has."

Zhou Fu smiled and said: "Your family is blessed this time. The Duke of the State is living at home recently. He feels that the garden of the Duke's mansion is a bit narrow and wants to expand it a little. It happens that your family's Shengyun Temple is located outside the garden of the Duke's mansion. , so the Duke sent me to inform you that he wants you to give up some land for the expansion of the palace."

When Ma Dexian heard this, he couldn't help showing a bitter face, hesitated for a long time, and said wronged: "Master Zhou, my Shengyun Temple is an ancestral property, passed down from generation to generation, I really dare not sell it."

Zhou Fu smiled and said: "Don't talk about selling it, how could our Duke do such things as embezzling palaces and temples? He respects Buddhism and Taoism, but he suffers from the fact that there is no Taoist temple in the mansion to worship day and night. As long as you carve out half of the ground, After the garden is repaired, you can divide the Shengyun Temple into two, move half to the public house, and assign half of the Taoist priests to build a small temple in the garden. The land is still yours for the Shengyun Temple, but it is It's just separated by the courtyard wall. Without losing an inch of land, wouldn't it be good for your old man to be able to have the support of Cao Guogong's mansion?"

As soon as these words came out, Ma Dexian sat on the ground in shock, and even Wang Dong frowned. This Li Jinglong is ruthless enough, and he simply wanted to snatch the land of Shengyun Temple for nothing.
