The Chronicles of Longevity on Liaozhai Road

Yang Heng looked at the banknote in his hand and seemed very angry, he threw the banknote on the ground with a flick of his hand.

Seeing this scene, Meng Shusheng, who was next to him, hurried forward to pick up the bank note. After sweeping his eyes, he saw only 300 taels of silver written on the bank note.

This Meng Shusheng felt a little bit uncomfortable, Zhu Xiaolian used to give him a few taels when helping him, but he was very generous to this Taoist priest, and he gave 300 taels all at once.

But at this time Yang Heng said, "Zhu Xiaolian doesn't have to be like this. And I know what you asked for, but I have limited ability, and I really can't do it for you, so I can't accept the money."

There was a hint of despair on Zhu Xiaolian's face, and finally Zhu Xiaolian asked with a bitter face: "Then I don't know how the old monk in this temple is doing now, I have something to ask him."

Yang Heng sighed, shook his head pretending to be sympathetic, and said, "The old man has passed away."

Zhu Xiaolian was surprised when he heard this, and then asked in disbelief: "When I saw him just now, he was still light and healthy, why did he pass away without much effort?"

Yang Heng looked helplessly at Zhu Xiaolian in front of him, and finally said: "You caused trouble in the painting, the old monk had no choice but to do something wrong in order to cover it up for you."

As for how to cover it up, Yang Heng mentioned it vaguely.

And Zhu Xiaolian didn't seem to be in the mood to pursue this matter, he was standing there in a state of desperation, already somewhat demented.

Seeing that something was wrong with Zhu Xiaolian, Meng Shusheng quickly stepped forward and pushed him, which woke Zhu Xiaolian up again.

After waking up, Zhu Xiaolian was already a little at a loss. He went forward and grabbed Yang Heng to guard him, and asked anxiously, "How is the forsythia? Will you be punished?"

Yang Heng was taken aback by his question, who is Forsythia?He never met it.

However, Yang Heng reacted quickly, and immediately guessed that this Forsythia should be a maid in the painting, who had a relationship with Zhu Xiaolian in front of him.

But now Yang Heng was about to use this relationship to entangle Zhu Xiaolian, so he said: "It shouldn't be a big deal to be covered by an old monk, but I think the description of Forsythia has been changed, and it has been replaced by a young woman's decoration, I don't know. Will it be discovered in the future?"

Zhu Xiaolian held Yang Heng's hand anxiously and said: "Master, what can you do to save Lianqiao quickly, she is innocent, I am seducing her for everything."

Seeing Zhu Xiaolian's anxiety, Yang Heng knew that the time had come, so he said, "My magic power is shallow, I'm afraid I don't have the ability, but I can show you a bright way."

When Zhu Xiaolian heard that there was a way, he hurriedly bowed deeply, and then said: "I also ask the Taoist priest to express it."

"This matter is also easy to handle. You just need to renovate this small temple, and then attract neighbors from all over the world to come to worship. You must know how to use people's money to eliminate disasters. As long as this small temple has incense, I think the expert in that painting would turn a blind eye."

Zhu Xiaolian's eyes lit up for this reason, even ghosts and gods cannot do without the power of incense and vows, as long as he gave enough money by himself, the old monk in the painting should not be too embarrassing for Lianqiao.

And things like money are nothing in Zhu Xiaolian's eyes.

So Zhu Xiaolian slapped his hands, and said: "You still have a solution, Taoist priest, but it's not enough to just ask folks to come and offer incense. You need to find a few monks to live in this small temple, so as to ensure the operation of the small temple."

As for the fact that this small temple is still under Zhu Xiaolian's management, he didn't take it seriously at all. As long as some silver is sent to the government, this small temple will soon be assigned to his name and become their family temple .

Zhu Xiaolian was relieved now, but he soon had some other thoughts, he pulled Yang Heng aside, and asked in a low voice: "The Taoist priest has also been to the Heavenly Palace in the painting. Bar?"

Yang Heng glanced at him, not knowing what Zhu Xiaolian meant, but finally he nodded and admitted.

"Then I don't know what the Taoist priest can do to allow me, a mortal, to enter the heavenly palace in the painting again."

Yang Heng saw the wretched expression on Zhu Xiaolian's face, and he knew what he was thinking. It seemed that he still couldn't forget that Forsythia, and wanted to have a tryst with her again.

Yang Heng thought for a while, since Zhu Xiaolian wanted to guard this small temple, he had to think about it first, and put his mind here, so that he would not get bored in a few days and forget about it.

So Yang Hengwen nodded, and then casually said a few words in Zhu Xiaolian's ear, a spell that he couldn't understand himself.

"You memorize this mantra firmly, and then stand in front of the painting wall and recite the mantra, and your soul will fall into the painting."

Chapter 449 Arrangement

And when Yang Heng taught Zhu Xiaolian the incantation, the avatar of the Bright Bodhisattva in the painting also had a reaction. He stretched out his hand lightly, and the maid named Lianqiao suddenly changed her position and came to the last part of the Heavenly Palace. edge.

This is also the method Yang Heng came up with, he can't let this Zhu Xiaolian enter the painting to harm other women.

That's why Yang Heng separated the place where Lianqiao lived from other heavenly palaces, as long as Yang Zhu Xiaolian recited the mantra, he would automatically fall here, and then Lianqiao would meet him.

Yang Heng felt that he was very uncomfortable now, like a pimping old bustard.

However, in order for this treasure to be safe and sound, he had no choice but to take it out. Only after the Light Bodhisattva had completely refined this magic treasure would Yang Heng be able to take it out from the wall.

In the next few days, Yang Heng temporarily lived in this small temple, but Zhu Xiaolian started to get busy. He kept walking around the nearby yamen for the past few days, and soon an approval document was sent In his hands, this small temple has been the family temple of the Zhu family ever since.

As for the former owner of this small temple, the government didn't even ask. It seems that money is sometimes very powerful.

Next, Zhu Xiaolian called on craftsmen to start renovating the small temple.

Fortunately, this small temple is not very big, there are only two or three temples, plus a dozen monks' rooms.

So after only ten days of effort, this small temple has taken on a new look, and then Zhu Xiaolian made persistent efforts and began to recruit wandering monks.

Fortunately, although this small temple is not big, it is still gorgeous after overhaul, so Zhu Xiaolian quickly found four monks, one old, three young, and they happily settled in the small temple to serve as the abbot of Zhu's family temple.

But now, Yang Heng knew that his affairs were almost done, so he bid farewell to Zhu Xiaolian.

After this period of contact, Zhu Xiaolian was very grateful to Yang Heng, so when Yang Heng left, he was reluctant to part with him, and invited Yang Chengdao to stay with him for a while several times.

But Yang Heng felt that he had been away for a long time this time, and he was thinking about his little Taoist temple, so he refused.

In the end, Zhu Xiaolian had no choice but to prepare a big package for Yang Heng, which was bulging, and he didn't know what it was.Afterwards, it was handed over to Yang Heng, and he was told to be careful on the road.

Yang Heng didn't have much impression of this package, but he thought it was quite heavy to lift.

However, it was not easy for him to open it in front of the owner. Finally, under Zhu Xiaolian's enthusiastic pleading, Yang Heng accepted the big package and bid farewell to Zhu Xiaolian.

After Yang Heng left the small temple for tens of miles, he stopped. He opened the package and took a look inside, which immediately made him a little dumbfounded.

It turned out that the package was not the gold, silver and jewels that Yang Heng had imagined, but a series of Taoist scriptures.

Yang Heng flipped through a few books casually, and found that these books were all so-called secret books that were circulated by the people.

These things are just to fool Zhu Xiaolian, these ignorant ones, if a true cultivator sees them, he will throw them away.

But these things are also Zhu Xiaolian's painstaking efforts, Yang Heng really can't throw him to the side of the road, he can only keep a random bag with him, and deal with these things when he returns to the Taoist temple.

Next, Yang Heng patted the sword on his back, and the sword immediately turned into a beam of light and landed in front of Yang Heng's eyes. Yang Heng lightly tapped his toes, and immediately stood on top of the sword.

And the sword immediately released bursts of golden light, wrapping itself and Yang Heng in it.

Finally, the group of light turned into a bolt of lightning, galloping away into the distance.

……

Besides, Erya in Dengtian Temple, Yang Heng has been away for many days, and no news has come back, Erya is very depressed now.

And several of Yang Heng's apprentices also clearly saw that Erya was in a bad mood, so they avoided Erya's students these days, fearing that Erya would find them, and they would just give them a random training.

On this day, after Erya led the apprentices to finish the morning class, they were assigned to tidy up the yard.

After finishing it, he also specially reminded that tidying up the yard is also a part of practice, so the servants have to intervene.

The eight disciples all looked at each other after hearing Erya's words.

It was the first time for them to tidy up the yard by themselves. When Yang Heng was here before, it was Yang Heng who gave orders, and they immediately called the servants under them to do it. There was no need for them to do it themselves.

Shouming and the others had the heart to retort a few words, but when they saw Erya staring and puffing her cheeks, they immediately lost their courage.

In the end, they could only pick up their brooms, brooms, or rags in dejection, and started to work in the yard.

Not to mention, these people are really clever. They may have been a little busy at the beginning, but as time went by, they actually entered the state. They packed up their things in a decent way, and let the people next to them keep busy. Erya, holding her breath and wanting to scold them, really has no place to get angry.

In the end, Erya could only walk towards the entrance of the Taoist temple angrily, but just as she reached the entrance, she heard a familiar voice.

"Oh, what's wrong with us Erya? Just puff up your mouth, who made you angry?"

Erya was pleasantly surprised when she heard this voice, she looked up, and sure enough, his brother Yang Heng was standing at the door of the Taoist temple, looking at her with a smile on his face.

Er Ya now involuntarily threw herself forward, and threw herself into Yang Heng's arms, but when she just arrived in front of Yang Heng, she seemed to have remembered something, and immediately stood still.

After that, he covered up the surprise on his face, and said pretendingly: "Senior brother is back. How is it? You're happy to play outside this time, don't you even know how to get home?"

Yang Heng heard that Er Ya's tone was wrong, stroked the non-existent beard, and quickly apologized.

"Oh, the matter has already been finished, but some strange things happened on the way, so it was delayed for a few days, Er Ya, don't be angry."

Er Ya heard that something strange happened to Yang Heng, her eyes lit up, as if she had forgotten what happened just now, she leaned over, "Brother, what happened?"

Yang Heng heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the rain had finally passed for Er Ya, he shook his clothes, and said, "Okay, I'll change my clothes when I go back, and I'll tell you about it later, including You are welcome to hear it."

After finishing speaking, Yang Heng walked towards the Taoist temple, and Erya quickly followed Yang Heng into the Taoist temple.

And the disciples who were tidying up in the yard, seeing Yang Heng came back, threw their things and surrounded Yang Heng as if they had met a savior.

"Master, you are finally back. You don't even know how we survived these days when you were away."

"That's right, we are almost becoming handymen now."

Shouming, as a big brother, even stretched out his palm in front of Yang Heng, and then looked at Erya and complained: "Master, look at my hands are calloused now, I blame my aunt, it's obviously a servant We must be meddled in what they do."

Yang Heng glanced at Erya next to her, and Erya immediately lowered her head guilty.

But in front of these apprentices, Yang Heng couldn't let Er Ya get off the stage, so he said to these apprentices with a straight face: "If you do some work, everyone will start to be unhappy?"

Seeing Yang Heng's bad tone, the disciples hurriedly shut up and stood there trembling.

Yang Hengwen went on to say: "This kind of labor is also a part of cultivation, and it is the most able to hone people's character. Your aunt asked you to do this because she thinks highly of you and specially trains you."

Speaking of this, Yang Heng turned his head and gave Er Ya a flattering look.

Erya nodded to Yang Heng in satisfaction, then raised her head high to Shouming and the others, like a duck that has been praised.

Shouming and the others had seen Yang Heng and Erya's expressions in their eyes, and they looked at each other in the end, and they were a little downcast. It seemed that they would not be able to speak ill of the aunt in front of the master in the future.

In the end, Erya waved her hand and said to Shouming and the others: "Why don't you go to work quickly, what are you doing here? Let me tell you, if you don't tidy up the yard today, you won't have anything to eat."

During this period of time, Shouming and the others were often punished by Erya for being hungry, so when they heard that there was no food, they immediately dispersed and started to go about their own business.

The apprentices Yang Heng saw looked a little jealous, because although these apprentices respected him on the surface, they didn't obey Erya like they did.

Erya also seemed to see Yang Hengwen's jealousy, and she immediately showed Yang Heng a big smile.

"Brother, didn't you say you have something strange to say? You change your clothes quickly, and I'll go prepare lunch for you, and we'll talk while eating."

Seeing Erya like this, Yang Heng had no choice but to go back to his room and change clothes.

And Erya was smiling all over her face now, waving her small fists towards the sky, and then ran to the kitchen full of ambition.

After Yang Heng changed into clean clothes and washed his face under the service of Zhu Zhu and others, he came back to the Sanqing Hall and offered a stick of incense to the Patriarch of the Sanqing before sitting on the stone table in the courtyard again. forward.

At this time, there were already seven or eight dishes on the table. It seemed that Erya wanted to reward Yang Heng this time, and specially cleaned him up.

Satisfied, Yang Heng picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of the dish.Put it in your own mouth, chewed it, and then closed your eyes easily, enjoying the peace of this home.

Erya sat across the table, seeing Yang Heng with his eyes closed and a smile on his lips, and was also happy in his heart.

Brother, he is finally back, and from the looks of it, he still likes to stay in his little Taoist temple.

And the eight apprentices who were working in the distance saw that the meal was ready, they threw away the tools in their hands and began to gather here.

Chapter 450

When Yang Heng returned to Xiaodao Temple, it took more than ten days in a blink of an eye.

During this period of time, everyone lived very peacefully. Erya still led the eight apprentices to do their homework in the morning and evening, and supervised their practice.

Yang Heng's place is peaceful, but the world is now in turmoil.

Especially in Shandong, although it is said that the White Lotus Sect has been pacified, a severe drought that has not happened in a hundred years happened next.

This time, all the grain that was about to be harvested in Shandong was destroyed.

For farmers, food is their lifeblood. Now that the food is destroyed, these people are already at a loss, and there are people behind them who are sowing discord.

All of a sudden, these ordinary and honest farmers broke out with unprecedented strength and began to rob the nearby wealthy businessmen and tyrants.

You must know that all these wealthy gentry are connected with the government. Now, if farmers rob them, it is no different from rebellion.

Therefore, the local government took action and began to attack everywhere, trying to wipe out these leading farmers.

But the result was unexpected. These farmers seemed to be supported by someone behind them, and they started a guerrilla attack against the government in the mountains.

If this is the case, the government can still handle it, and the next thing is that the White Lotus Sect has started to revive.

I don't know which remnant of the White Lotus Sect is now claiming to be the leader, recruiting followers, and starting to fight against the government again.

You must know that in the border of Shandong, that is the lair of the White Lotus Sect. Although the White Lotus Sect has been wiped out, there are still many followers of them.

Therefore, the whole Shandong can be said to be in chaos.

If only Shandong was in chaos, the court could still maintain it, but then there were also turmoil in the south.

Those alien races in the south, taking advantage of the imperial court's transfer of troops to Shandong to suppress the rebellion, actually started to rebel, and many counties were thus broken.

At this time, the imperial court was a little overwhelmed, and in the end they could only dispatch elite soldiers from the border to quell the chaos.
