"Hey, who told you that I'm a tourist!" Zhang Xiaorui put her hands on her hips, her expression was very arrogant, which startled the little Taoist priest.

"Who are you……"

"You don't know me? I am..."

Ye Shaoyang covered her mouth and whispered in her ear: "What are you doing so recklessly, I didn't tell you, don't reveal your identity, let's come to a private visit to see how Xiao Su manages the mountain gate .”

"Oh, I was so excited that I forgot." Zhang Xiaorui stuck out her tongue and smiled at the little Taoist priest. Just as she was about to speak, the little Taoist priest asked suspiciously, "You are not tourists, so are the local people here to listen to the Taoist temple?"

Ye Shaoyang immediately said in local dialect: "Yes, yes, I am from Lizui Village at the foot of the mountain. I heard that there is an ashram today, so I came here to have a look. I wonder what ashram is today?"

The little Taoist heard him speak the local dialect and the name of the local village, he no longer doubted, and said: "Today is the first day of September, the day when Lord Nandou Xing came. Outside the main hall of Guangsha in Houshan, the auspicious time is coming, the two of you should go over quickly."

After speaking, he gave a salute, pointed them in the direction, and then walked away.

"Dao Lingzi, what the hell?" Zhang Xiaorui blinked and asked.

Ye Shaoyang tapped her on the forehead, "Don't talk nonsense, Dao Lingzi must be Xiaosu's Dao name."

"Oh, that... I suddenly thought, Master, don't you all have a Dao name, and so does your master. Why don't you and Dao Feng have a Dao name?"

"Who said no. Dao Fengzi is his Dao name. He has no father or mother, and he has no name since he was a child. My master named him Dao Feng. It is both a name and a Dao name."

Zhang Xiaorui suddenly realized, and murmured: "Dao Fengzi, Dao Lingzi, what is Master's Dao name? Why have I never seen you use it?"

"I'm not sitting in the palace on the mountain, so what are you doing with the dao name!"

"Then tell me, what's your name? You idiot, Dao Guzi?"

Ye Shaoyang knocked her again, and reprimanded: "Whoever told you that I must call you something, your master and my Taoist name will be Shaoyangzi!"

"Uh, Shaoyangzi...sounds good." Zhang Xiaorui took his arm and begged, "Master, please give me a Taoist name too, be more domineering and tender, um, it's better Just listen to it and remember..."

When the two rushed to the outside of the Guangsha Hall in Houshan, the dojo had already started. There was an altar in the middle, enshrining the statues of Sanqing. Repression, in four forms: turtle, deer, crane, and horse.

Su Qinzhang was wearing a magic crown and a Taoist robe bordered with sky blue flowing clouds. He was standing in front of the Buddhist altar and was reciting Taoist scriptures aloud. Taoist priests, wearing yellow Taoist robes with black borders, beat gongs in a row and chimes in a row.

Dozens of villagers gathered around in silence. Under the guidance of the leading Taoist priest, they came to the altar one by one to pray for blessings and burn incense. Tap on the brows of the pilgrims to bless Sanqing and avoid disasters.

Ye Shaoyang repeatedly asked Zhang Xiaorui not to speak, and then took her into the middle of the villagers, pretending to watch the excitement.

"Master, didn't you say that you are the only descendant of Xuanqing Mountain? Where do these Taoist priests come from?" Zhang Xiaorui couldn't help asking.

Ye Shaoyang glanced at the people around him. Fortunately, the sound of beating chimes and gongs was very loud, and these people were engrossed in looking at the dojo, no one noticed what Zhang Xiaorui said.

"Tell you to shut up!" Ye Shaoyang knocked her on the head again, and suddenly thought of an interesting question: I usually don't like knocking people, and I don't knock others, why do I want to knock Zhang Xiaorui on the head? Is it because of his apprentice?

It suddenly occurred to him that in the past Qingyunzi also liked to knock his own head. It seems that this is probably the result of subtle influence, and it has become the inheritance of Xuanqingshan's master and apprentice.

"After that lunatic left, I was the only one in the inner sect. Of course there were some disciples in the outer sect, but there were not so many before." Ye Shaoyang stretched out his head and looked around. Many of them were new faces, probably Su Qinzhang's new disciples.

Ye Shaoyang observed Su Qinzhang's every move in the dojo, and felt that he already had the bearing of a master in his behavior, and he was quite satisfied. At this time, I heard a few aunts chatting in front of me, and one of them said: "The dojo is over, do you want to interpret your dreams?"

"The interpretation of dreams is tomorrow. It used to be once every half a month, but now it's changed to once a week. The successor is really hardworking." Another replied.

"That's right. In the past, Daoist Master Qingyunzi was always away from the mountain. He said he would come once every half a month, sometimes once every two or three months. When he came, he couldn't find anyone."

"Don't say that, although Taoist Master Qingyunzi is lazy, he has real magic power. Whether it's interpreting dreams, or curing evil spirits, it's all a matter of calculation. This Daoist Priest Lingzi is still a little worse oh."

"Of course, Qing Yunzi is the master, and this is the apprentice, so it is naturally different."

The other said: "Apprentices are different from apprentices. In my opinion, that kid Shaoyang was much stronger than this Taoist priest."

One sentence aroused the resonance of the surrounding people, and they discussed Ye Shaoyang one after another. An old lady said: "If you want to talk about Shaoyang, I watched him grow up. Although this kid is mischievous, he is as dishonest as his master, and he always likes to tease the little boy." Girl, but the ability is really not bad, not worse than his master."

Ye Shaoyang knew from the sound that it was Aunt Liu who was selling sesame seed cakes in the scenic area, so he couldn't help but patted her on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "I said Aunt Liu, are you hurting me or are you hurting me?"

Aunt Liu was startled, and when she looked back, she immediately smiled, "Oh, Shaoyang! It's really you, when did you come back!"

Several villagers around him also recognized him. These people all watched Ye Shaoyang grow up. In their hearts, they didn't regard him as a high-ranking and enlightened person at all, but a junior like a child in their own village. They chatted affectionately, and then someone noticed Zhang Xiaorui's existence, and immediately regarded it as his daughter-in-law, and discussed all kinds of things.

Ye Shaoyang didn't even have a chance to defend himself, so he could only let them talk nonsense.

After they had said enough, Ye Shaoyang asked about Su Qinzhang's recent deeds and style on the mountain. The general response was very good. He was much more diligent than when Qingyunzi and him were on the mountain. After finishing, Ye Shaoyang bid farewell to the villagers affectionately, promised them that they would stay for a while and visit their homes when they had time, and these villagers reluctantly left.
