Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

Just when Taoist Xu Yi was still secretly satisfied, Li Muhua suddenly stood up and said in surprise: "Then we are in trouble, old Taoist priest!"

"What's wrong?" Xu couldn't help but ask when he saw him jumping up in surprise.

Li Muhua looked at Xu Yi and said seriously, "Didn't you ask your disciples to come to our courtyard today? He insisted that the courtyard was blessed with great fortune and someone was going to become an immortal in it, so everyone in our courtyard is looking for immortal fate in it, and everyone wants to become an immortal. Old Taoist priest, do you think it is a big karma to deceive so many people at once?"

When Xu Yi heard that Li Muhua was talking about this, he couldn't help but curse inwardly, is it necessary to make such a fuss over such a small matter?

But he shook his head calmly, looked at Li Muhua and said, "I'm not lying. When you become a monk at the temple fair in a year, they will all know about it. The burden will be lifted!"

Li Muhua immediately shook her head.

"That won't do. They're looking for gods all over the yard every day. Isn't this disturbing my peace? If I get annoyed by the noise in the yard every day, I might have to go to the temple to get some peace and quiet. The old monks in the temple are more talkative than you. Maybe I'll suddenly understand the Buddhist principles and get an epiphany--"

Xu Yi was a wise old man. When he heard this, he realized that Li Muhua was threatening him and wanted to ask him something. He didn't want to listen to any more nonsense, so he interrupted and said:

"Little disciple, do you still remember what you just said?"

"What?"

Li Muhua scratched his head in confusion. It seemed like he didn’t say anything special just now!

"There are only two of us here, so stop talking nonsense and just speak directly if you have something to say!"

"Hehe~~"

Hearing that Taoist Xu Yi used his own words to refute him, Li Muhua smiled awkwardly and touched the back of his head, then asked a little embarrassedly: "Then I will just say it straight!"

"Well! It's okay to speak frankly."

Taoist Xu Yi nodded and looked at Li Muhua with sharp eyes. He was also very curious about what Li Muhua wanted to say after going through so much trouble.

When Li Muhua saw Taoist Xu Yi nodded, she hurriedly sat back on the cushion, but she still felt that she was a little far away from him, so she quickly dragged the cushion towards him.

"Old Taoist priest, this is what I think. Didn't you say that there is a fairy in our courtyard? If you don't want them to keep looking, I would say you should just go to our courtyard again and tell them who this fairy and blessing source is!"

Taoist Master Xu Yi listened to Li Muhua's words with some confusion and said, "Don't you want to be a god in the courtyard? Then what are you doing now——"

When Li Muhua heard that Taoist Xu Yi had hit the nail on the head, he immediately patted the Taoist on the shoulder to show his appreciation before continuing, "Old Taoist, you are really smart. Of course, I'm not talking about myself, but I have two candidates here. When the time comes, just say they are the ones!"

Taoist Xu Yi looked at Li Muhua with suspicion, thinking that his behavior was a little strange. Wasn't this a good thing? Why was he still thinking of pushing it to others?

Could it be that the candidates are Li Muhua's parents? That shouldn't be the case. He said that he didn't want to be associated with this title and he could clearly see the interests involved. So how could he let his parents be associated with this title?

Could it be that they are his enemies? But this is obviously a good thing. As long as I go to their compound and tell them who has good fortune and destiny, who in their compound would not be close to these two people in the future?

Seeing the thoughtful look on Xu Yi's face, Li Muhua patted him on the shoulder and said, "Old Taoist priest, don't guess. These two people do have some grudges against your young disciple. I just want to deal with them on purpose."

"Besides, they were the ones who took advantage of their seniority and bullied your young disciple first. Don't worry, they won't be affected by the responsibility you mentioned!"

"this--"

Taoist priest Xu Yi looked a little hesitant. Now was not the right time and the country advocated materialism, so he naturally did not want to break any taboos.

Especially for such a childish thing.

Li Muhua saw the embarrassment on Taoist Xu Yi's face, and instead of trying to persuade him with reason, he stood up and said disappointedly, "It seems that the saying 'I'd rather die than my fellow Taoist' is true, but the saying 'good fortune and misfortune come from no door, but are brought upon oneself' is false. People have brought such trouble upon me, and I have no way to retaliate, so how can there be any retribution in this life?"

"I should come to the Taoist temple less often in the future, and go to the White Pagoda Temple and Lingguang Temple more often to worship Buddha, and ask the Buddha and the monks to help, so that those people who bullied your little disciple will be reincarnated as pigs, dogs, chickens, and ducks in the next life!"

As he spoke, Li Muhua stood up, patted his wrinkled clothes, and looked like he was about to leave in frustration.

Taoist Master Xuyi was speechless after hearing this. What kind of twisted ideas were these from Li Muhua's mouth? Was this how he misinterpreted the true meaning of Taoism?

But he thought that he was the one who had caused this, and he should see it through to the end. Besides, he was happy to hear Li Muhua calling him a little disciple, and he couldn't offend his future good disciple over such a small matter.

"Okay, tell me about their situation first, I'll listen first and see if it complies with the Way of Heaven!"

Li Muhua had just turned around, but when he heard what the Taoist priest Xu Yi said, he quickly turned back and sat back on the cushion, and excitedly told the Taoist priest about the situation of the two people.

"The first blessing is an old lady. She lives in the back room of our compound. She should be over 80 years old this year. She has no children. She keeps making up stories in the yard all day long, saying that she is a relative of a martyr. In fact, it's all fake. She often pretends to be deaf..."

"The second fairy is a kid, about my age, who lives in the west wing of our central courtyard. He steals and robs people all day long..."

Knowing what the old Taoist meant by "Heaven's Way", Li Muhua naturally exaggerated the lives of the two men in the most evil way. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he would put a accusation on them first.

Only after listening to Li Muhua's story about the two of them, Taoist Xu Yi couldn't help but look a little cold.

"If these two people's behavior is really as you said, then I should enforce justice on the behalf of heaven and teach them a lesson."

However, he did not agree directly, but spoke ambiguously.

When he heard that Taoist Xu Yi did not agree directly, Li Muhua immediately stood up, patted his chest and assured: "Old Taoist, don't worry, if you don't believe me, just go and ask, I will definitely not lie!"

"Of course I would ask if I was asked. For example, the old deaf lady who pretended to be deaf and dumb. You have lived together in the compound for decades, but no one knows her name and origin. It's really strange."

Taoist Xu Yi narrowed his eyes and said with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

Hiding in a compound under an assumed name and making up gilded reputation for oneself based on hearsay, this person is definitely not a good person.

It seemed strange to Li Muhua that an old widow could maintain her status as the ancestor of the compound and act tyrannically for decades during decades of war.

She is old, so few people know her background, not even in the compound or the alley. But coincidentally, the Taoist master Xu Yi is also quite old, over 70 years old, and has been in the Xuanmen for decades.

His interpersonal relationships in the city were extremely extensive, and he knew the secrets of the previous dynasty and the affairs behind the walls of wealthy families like the back of his hand.

He just didn't believe that if he spent a few days looking for old friends, he wouldn't be able to find the old lady!
