I don't have a system but I have a hammer
Chapter 16, Fire Fighting
But this is not without benefits, at least the chaotic and complicated situation can correct the balance of the enemy's strength and our weakness to a certain extent...
Thinking of this, I hurriedly followed, because I was really hungry, so I grabbed a handful of peanuts and melon seeds on the table before leaving...
When I arrived at the scene of the fire, the situation exceeded my expectations and completely overturned my original understanding of "fire"...
I saw that the surging fire snake had completely devoured the main hall in the center of the temple, and quickly spread outward!
And the golden Buddha statues placed inside looked extremely creepy at this moment!
The originally gorgeous and luxurious golden paint gradually melted under the continuous high temperature, revealing the extremely black body inside, like a group of puppets that have just been baked and have not been painted...
But what really puzzled me was that none of the monks who watched on the side stepped forward to put out the fire, and they didn't know to call the fire alarm.
That's right, panic!
Just when I was still confused, the voice from the crowd then explained to me for them...
"The Taoist priest is here, the Taoist priest is here, we are saved!"
"Tell me what's going on now"
"It's the same as the previous few times... the fire can't be extinguished, what should we do now, master, you must save our Buddha statue, it cost a lot of money to find someone to build!"
"Well... let me try first!"
"People say that Buddhism and Taoism belong to one family. Here I would like to thank the Taoist priest first!"
As a spectator, I find it ironic that the group of monks in front of me are different from the few golden Buddhas in the hall who have faded away...
Without that halo, they are just ordinary people...
While there was still a bit of sarcasm on the corner of my mouth, the scene that appeared the next moment made me open my mouth wide!
I saw that the priest first took out a lot of things from the cloth bag, including talisman paper with patterns, a bulging cloth bag with unknown contents, and some bottles...
Then, just like some zombie movies he watched when he was a child, he smeared the liquid in the bottles and jars on the sword, then passed through the talisman paper, and then looked at the burning fire in front of him, and began to mutter words...
"x%¥#..."
Anyway, I can't understand it, it's probably the content above, but although I don't know what he's reading, no matter how stupid I am, I can still see that the fire that was originally raging and fierce has started to gradually shrink?
No wonder others call him a living god, but anyone who has received nine years of compulsory education will be shocked to see this scene, call him a fairy!
"Fire out, fire out!"
"What a god hey!"
"This priest is really powerful!"
"... "
But what's interesting is that the group of monks may have gotten used to this scene, and they all just looked at the golden Buddha in the hall with joy, as if they were lucky that there was a Taoist priest.
There were only some pilgrims living in the temple. They were excited, and then they picked up their mobile phones to take pictures, but they were stopped by the monks in the next second...
"The Taoist priest said that the practice process cannot be recorded, otherwise it may fail!"
Hearing these words, everyone put down their phones in a little disappointment...
After about one stick of incense, the fire was completely eliminated. Everyone cheered and rushed into the hall to see if there was anything that could be rescued. They completely forgot about the tired Taoist priest beside him...
The head of the temple paid homage to the Taoist priest with an excited face, and warmly invited him to stay for tea...
"Thank you so much, I understand the rules, this is some modest kindness, I hope you..."
Contrary to everyone's joy, the Taoist leader's face was still very serious. He didn't take the stack of banknotes, but looked at the gray and black Buddha statue gloomyly, with a look of fear in his eyes. …
"My rule is that if the trouble is not resolved, I will never charge money, so now is not the time..."
The host was taken aback for a moment, then as if realizing something, he looked at the Buddha statue in the center of the hall in shock, his eyes were no longer as pious as before, but a deep fear!
"Could it be that…"
The Taoist nodded slightly, and then began to tidy up the scattered things on the ground.
"I have started investigating these four fires a few days ago, and they may have some connection with the firefighter who committed suicide last month, so tonight I will go to the Luan Tombs in the back mountain, hoping to find some clues..."
He spoke in an unhurried tone, making people nervous, while the host on the side had an unbelievable look on his face, as if he knew something...
"Uh...that's it, if there is anything you need help with, Taoist priest, you can tell me at any time, the Buddhist and Taoist family!"
I captured the slightly trembling hand of the host very well. It seems that the so-called help is not as sincere as it sounds...
"Well... Speaking of this, I may need a braver master to help me, my group of senior brothers... Forget it, I don't know if there are any good candidates for the host..."
After hearing his words, the surrounding monks immediately fell silent, no, to be precise...it was quiet for a few seconds, and then they began to volunteer one by one...
"I will move the things in the hall, I have great strength..."
"It's better to come, junior brother, this thing doesn't matter..."
"Everyone, everyone, we have to hurry up and clean up the hall today, otherwise the pilgrims won't have to worship tomorrow..."
"But... I've packed everything up"
"Idiot, clean it up as soon as I say it, don't you think the dust in the corner is an eyesore!"
"... "
Haha, my heart was full of joy at that time, not only because the monks rushed into the hall, but also because I finally had the opportunity to do bad things, and I was still worried about not being able to do it!
So I pretended to be a worshiper of the strong, and walked towards the Taoist priest who was still packing up...
It seems that he had already expected the situation of no one to help, this guy's face was full of helplessness...
"Daoist, see if I can help you!"
Maybe it was the first time I saw someone take the initiative to help, so this guy's originally dull eyes suddenly became radiant!
"Hey, you... aren't you the little brother just now? Although this matter at night is not dangerous, it is definitely necessary to work hard. Besides, you are not familiar with the environment here, so you don't have to force yourself..."
I imitated his tone just now and smiled slightly.
"My rules, if the trouble is not resolved, I will never charge money!"
He took a deep look at me, then suddenly laughed and patted my shoulder, his eyes couldn't help revealing the expression of approval...
Thinking of this, I hurriedly followed, because I was really hungry, so I grabbed a handful of peanuts and melon seeds on the table before leaving...
