God's favor

Chapter 16

Shen Yi suddenly opened his eyes, at this time the sky was bright, and Bai Yi didn't know where he went.He rubbed between his brows, was the dream last night true, and if it was true, why did he have these dreams, and whether it was related to the ribbon Yan Yuan gave him.No, this is not actually a ribbon, Bai Yi told him it was a hair tie.

Peng Peng, the knock on the wooden door brought Shen Yi's eyes back from his hairband.Shen Yi asked the people outside to wait for a while, after he got dressed, he went to open the door for him.

Outside the door was Qing Zhi, the person who took them in last night. He was carrying a lunch box in his hand, and he was here to deliver breakfast to Shen Yi.

Shen Yi was really flattered, he didn't expect that Qing Zhi would come to deliver meals to him in person.A bowl of porridge, a plate of side dishes and two steamed buns were placed on the wooden table by Qingzhi.

"Thank you, why bother you to deliver this breakfast yourself, just call me, and I'll go to the kitchen to get it myself."

Holding the chopsticks, Shen Yi was close enough to see a few red marks on Qing Zhi's fair and slender wrist, as if someone had caught him.Shen Yi frowned, and asked: "Qing Zhi, may I ask, who made the mark on your hand?"

Qingzhi immediately pulled up his sleeves to cover up the mark, his delicate and slender eyebrows drooped, and he couldn't hide his disappointment, "In the past few days, people in the village have been dying strangely, and they all said it was me who caused them to drive me out of the village. It is my only residence, and it was left to me by my father. Speaking of which, I still want to thank the man who came with you this morning. He drove the village chief away. However, as a price, the village chief asked him to help Please sir."

"Why did you drive you away? You didn't cause the death of the villagers." Shen Yi slowed down while eating, and Qing Zhi was sitting beside him.

"Actually, this place used to be a Taoist temple. Daoist Qingming was my master. He is very powerful in Taoism. With him guarding the village, the villagers have always lived and worked in peace and contentment. There have never been any monsters and ghosts attacking the village. But just two years ago, my master Not long after accepting me, I died in an accident. The villagers said that I was a disaster star and brought disaster to the village."

After hearing what Qing Zhi said, Shen Yi frowned even tighter, "This is even more nonsense, won't they invite other Taoist priests?"

Hearing this, Qingzhi smiled wryly and said, "Villagers, I have to pay for the Taoist priest every time, but how can I get so much money?"

"Just don't stay here."

"Where can I go if I leave here?"

Shen Yi paused for a few times with the chopsticks in his hand. He remembered that when he was applying for a job, he had encountered numerous obstacles and felt that he was a waste.In fact, it's good to get through it, and when you look back, you will find that life is not as sad as you think, "Actually, the world is so big, you can call home anywhere."

"Qing Zhi——, Qing Zhi."

A young man's voice came from the yard, Qing Zhi and Shen Yi thanked him for his words of comfort, and went out to meet that young man.Since the wooden door was open, Shen Yi saw the young man's figure, strong and tall, with a darker complexion, and the muscle lines on the exposed arms were full and smooth, Shen Yi was really envious.

The young man never left, but stayed with the group of Qingzhi to clean the yard.In this way, Shen Yi also had the chance to see his face, a handsome young man with a smile on his face, making people feel good about him.

When Shen Yi was observing the young man, the young man also saw Shen Yi, and he smiled at Shen Yi.

After cleaning up, the young man carried water and chopped firewood for Qingzhi.The water was carried in the stone well behind the house, Shen Yi didn't see it clearly last night, but today, he realized that the place is quite big, not only the front yard but also the back yard.

He went to the backyard, and the young man carried water, cleaned his face, and combed his hair.He glanced sideways and saw the young man's bulging biceps while carrying water, and he secretly groaned twice in his heart.Shen Yi also wanted to help, but he lifted the wooden bucket full of water, his fingers turned red, after shaking for two steps, the wooden bucket was placed on the ground again.

Shen Yi looked around and breathed out slowly.Fortunately, no one is here, otherwise he would be really ashamed.Hearing the sound behind him, Shen Yi quickly straightened up, pretending to be exercising.

The person who came was Qing Zhi, he helped the young man bring a bowl of water, and called Shen Yi, and introduced the young man to Shen Yi.

"This is Yun Jing, a person from the village."

Shen Yi smiled slightly: "I'm Shen Yi, nice to meet you."

The young man rubbed the back of his head, and a blush flew over his dark-skinned face. He wiped the sweat dripping from the corners of his forehead, and took a sip of water, "Brother Qingzhi told me that you are here as guest guests."

Qing Zhi brought a towel and wiped off the sweat on Yun Jing's face, took the porcelain bowl that Yun Jing drank, and put it on the stone table beside him.

Yun Jing finished his work and left.On the contrary, Qing Zhi looked at the back of Yun Jing who had simply left, a trace of pain flashed in his pitch-black eyes, and when he faced Shen Yi again, his delicate brows were mixed with a touch of sadness.

Pale face, frail body, a few strands of black hair scattered on the shoulders, thick eyelashes drooping, lips soaked in water are plump and moist.Shen Yi shook his head, and then immediately raised his forehead, how could he find a man attractive.

After lamenting, Shen Yi looked up, and saw Qing Zhi smiling at him, like a pear blossom blooming in early spring.

Perhaps seeing that Shen Yi was bored, Qing Zhi took out a book from the room and lent it to Shen Yi to pass the time.

The title of this book is History of Foreign Objects, and it mainly draws anecdotes and strange events on this continent.

Shen Yi sat on the stone bench in the front yard, flipping through the books back and forth, he found that the pictures drawn here were quite interesting.Although reading was interesting, Shen Yi was a little distracted, paying attention to whether Bai Yi came back.

Bai Yi didn't come back through the gate, but jumped over the wall.

When Shen Yi saw it, Bai Yi had already come to him, looking at the book in his hand, "What book?"

Shen Yi sat up straight, and pointed to the stone bench beside him, "Sit down, this is just a random chat. I heard that you just helped Qing Zhi, or did you help the village chief to ask for a priest?"

"Well, but the Taoist priest is not very good at Taoism, and his temper is not small."

"It's asking for help after all."

"So I just tied him up and threw him into the village."

"...In that case, let's leave here early!"

Naturally, Bai Yi agreed with this suggestion. When he first arrived in this village, he felt that there was too much resentment in this village.Moreover, this morning, he also followed the village chief to see the remains of the villagers who just died last night.Muscle atrophy all over the body, pale face, is caused by being sucked dry.

Combined with the faint black air radiating from all over the village, Bai Yi knew that there was an evil ghost hiding in this village.Ghosts are different from demons. Ghosts have no substance, and they all realize their wishes by possessing other things.In order to avoid it, Jiu Liusheng changed.

However, Bai Yi and the others didn't know that it was easy to get in, but difficult to get out.

In the dark room, pale and thin fingers were pawing at the door, his delicate and slender eyebrows were hidden in the darkness, his eyelashes trembled slightly as he watched the noisy scene outside.

Bai Yi, who had offended the Taoist priest, was blocked at the door, and the villagers who had been threatened with death for a long time had dark circles in their eyes, and strong resentment exuded from their bodies.Bai Yi wanted to fight back, but his hand was held down by Shen Yi, and Shen Yi's eyes signaled him not to move.

The villagers want to seek justice for the Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest who was tied up by Bai Yi is now surrounded by everyone in the front, looking at Bai Yi with an arrogant look.

Shen Yi also saw that Daoist, with thin cheeks, pale skin, a pinched beard on his chin, dressed in a blue Taoist uniform, with a wooden sword tied behind his back, he looked rather imposing.The priest looked at Shen Yi who came in front of him, and snorted disdainfully.

Bai Yi's hand trembled, and he almost broke free from Shen Yi's hand.

Shen Yi didn't respond to this at all, instead he smiled lightly, "Master Daoist, he is my younger brother, he is not very sensible, I apologize to you on his behalf..."

"Wait." The Taoist interrupted Shen Yi's apology. He stroked his beard and sneered, "This old man has been killing demons for 20 years. Reasonable person. Not only tied up the old man, but also threw the old man on the street, making the old man lose face. Can an apology be enough?"

"What does the priest think?"

"He knelt down to apologize, can the old man consider letting him go?"

"This is not allowed." Shen Yi smiled and said: "Master Dao, my younger brother is young and ignorant. He made a mistake, so he will naturally be punished, but Master Dao, this is not a punishment, but an insult to people's self-esteem. Master Dao, lose it." To save face, we must seek justice. Then my brother, whose self-esteem was trampled by the Taoist priest, must seek justice. Moreover, my brother, once he goes berserk, even I can't stop him."

Bai Yi cast a cold glance at Dao, and whispered in Shen Yi's ear: "I am much older than you."

Seeing this, the priest's face turned pale, and he said in a deep voice: "In this case, the old man will never come to this village again."

The Taoist priest shook his sleeves and wanted to leave here, but the village chief and the villagers all stopped him, begging him bitterly, and many of them looked at Shen Yi with resentment.This made Shen Yi touch his nose unconsciously, and he raised his voice, "Master Taoist, if you are really capable, how could you be caught by my younger brother? I think you are incapable, so I thought of running away !"

"Damn."

The Taoist priest turned around, stared angrily, and scolded: "I have practiced for 30 years, how can I allow you to slander me?"

Seeing that the Daoist really turned his head back, Shen Yi smiled and said: "Daoist, everyone can talk big."

"Then you look good."

Taoist priest closed his fingers together, and a stream of fresh air came out from between his fingers, not for a moment.Daoist priest's forehead was covered with dense sweat, he suddenly opened his eyes, looked behind Shen Yi, his eyes widened, as if seeing something terrible.

The Taoist priest's sudden change of expression made Shen Yi a little puzzled.

"what are you doing"

Qing Zhi, who was dressed in a gray robe, came out of the gymnasium at some point, his delicate eyebrows drooped, the tails of his eyes were red, and his slender fingers were clenched into fists, "My place used to be a Taoist temple, and I also learned How can there be unclean things in some Taoism?"

After Qing Zhi appeared, the Taoist leader staggered and ran away.Those who remained were the villagers with sullen expressions, and the village chief who led them. The village chief was seventy years old and had a full head of hair.He coughed lightly, came to Qingzhi, and stretched out his hand.

With a slap, Qingzhi's fair face was tilted to one side, and a layer of red marks appeared immediately.This stunned Shen Yi who was on the side, and opened his mouth. He didn't expect the village head to beat someone.Qing Zhi suppressed his sad expression, making Shen Yi feel uncomfortable looking at it.

"Tell me, since you came to our village, first Taoist Qingming died for no reason, and then many villagers died for no reason, and the death was miserable. I know that we should not have forced you to become Taoist Qingming at the beginning. apprentice, but you don’t have to bear grudges against us for so long, even my youngest son.”

Speaking of his youngest son, the village chief's eyes turned red, and he reached out to hit him again.This time it was a young man squeezed out from the villagers who stopped the village chief. Seeing the red mark on Qingzhi's face with his bright black eyes, they were instantly covered in black mist, and he knelt on the ground, "Father, Qingzhi, he is alone!" How can a weak person cause disasters. Don't drive him out of here again."

Shen Yi took a closer look, the handsome and refreshing face of this person was exactly Yun Jing, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Qing Zhi was finally protected now.He is not from here, so it is not easy to interrupt.He lowered his head, seeing that he was still holding Bai Yi's hand, and pretended to let go of it inadvertently.

Bai Yi noticed Shen Yi's movement, frowned slightly, he stretched out his hand to grab it again, lowered his head and whispered in Shen Yi's ear: "It's so noisy here. Besides, these mortals are really slow in doing things, not straightforward."

Shen Yi smiled helplessly: "Be patient for a while, we will leave when Qing Zhi is fine."

The village chief's slap finally landed on Yun Jing's face. He looked at his son with hatred, gritted his teeth and said, "I think you were bewitched by that demon boy."

"Father, Qing Zhi is innocent."

The village head was so angry that he coughed violently. He looked back and saw Qingzhi's dark and cold eyes, his thin fingers trembling, and eventually his eyes turned white and he passed out.

The village head had an accident, and as his son, Yun Jing immediately hugged his father to find the commoner doctor.

Some of the remaining villagers wanted to continue making trouble, but Bai Yi stopped them all.The gate of the courtyard was blocked, Shen Yi and Bai Yi did not make it through.In fact, if Shen Yi and the others wanted to leave, these villagers couldn't stop them.However, Shen Yi saw Qing Zhi's eyes turned red, and his expression couldn't conceal the sadness.

Qingzhi has favors to them, Shen Yi thought, and stayed to persuade Qingzhi to leave here.The attitude of the people in this village is so bad that Qingzhi can still stay.

Seeing Shen Yi's thoughtful expression, Qing Zhi brought out a pot of tea and put it on the stone table.He also poured a cup for Shen Yi and Bai Yi respectively, and the fragrance of tea wafted to the tip of Shen Yi's nose.Qingzhi took the initiative to talk about his grievances with the villagers.
