I opened up Taoism in ancient times

Chapter 37

All of a sudden, hundreds of gold coins were collected, and the "salted fish gene" in Liu Yichi's body was ready to move again.

"Li Su, take a break."

"No, I just rested for a month and a half, and I'm very energetic recently." Li Su said after regaining his energy. "It's good to endure this period of time. It will be July soon, and you can rest during that time."

"July? Ah—ghost month."

It's still the beginning of June, and Liu Yichi is already looking forward to July.

"Today is only the fifth day of June..." Liu Yichi was lying on the recliner, eating a mint smoothie that he didn't make.Eating ice at noon is to cool off the heat.The small bowl of smoothie was gone in no time, and he ran to the kitchen to ask Buyan for another bowl of ice.

Don't say anything, concentrate on washing and chopping vegetables, and ignore him. "Xiangsheng, have you finished processing the fish you killed? Hurry up, I have prepared all the side dishes here, waiting for your fish to be minced."

"Okay, here we come!" Xiangsheng brought in two cleaned big male fish, handed them without saying a word, and then said to Liu Yichi: "Junior brother, you just woke up, you won't be able to bear eating so much ice. Bowl There is a bowl of red bean paste in the cabinet, and there are glutinous rice balls you like in it."

"Okay, what's for lunch?"

"Eat cold fish meal at noon." Seeing Liu Yichi eating the red bean paste obediently in the cupboard, he said nothing before speaking. "I'll make another pickled cucumber, and another braised pork. I'll marinate five eggs in it, and I'll give one to each of Li Su and Aunt Xiang."

One day Liu Yichi wanted to eat the braised pork, but he didn’t know anything about how to make it, so he described the taste and the process he could recall to Buyan, and it made him cook it. It was the first time he made the braised pork It is very delicious.After all, he even said to himself that his talent in cooking far exceeds his talent in learning hexagrams.Afterwards, braised pork often appeared on their tables.

When Li Su came to the Taoist temple to find Liu Yichi to go hunting, he had just put down the bowl and chopsticks.

"No way, Li Su, you gave me two sticks of incense before to digest food." Liu Yichi complained.

Li Su glanced at him, "July is full of rest time, which means..."

"It means that the income in July will be very small." Liu Yichi continued, "You have said this many times."

Li Su took the stewed egg that Bu Yan handed over and ate it, "I'll eat slowly, is it enough time for half a stick of incense?" He sighed. Not long ago, the ancestor said that he would take on big tasks with him to make money Well, now it seems?This matter has long been forgotten by him.

There was only half an incense stick, and Liu Yichi, who was full, walked around the yard, holding a plate of sliced ​​watermelon in his hand, taking a walk and adding fruit after meals was his post-meal snack.

Not to mention bringing some food in a bamboo basin, there are small snacks such as honey amber walnuts and red date cakes, pickled radishes, small pickles such as mustard shreds, a few stewed pork pancakes, and a drawer of shiitake mushroom meat buns and tea.Needless to say, put them one by one into Liu Yichi's pouch. "Junior Brother Li, this is dinner for you and Junior Brother on the way today."

"Thank you!" Li Su ate the last bite of marinated eggs, and said, "Don't you think you and Brother Xiangsheng are too used to Liu Yichi? You beat your legs when you're tired, you hold rice when you're hungry, and you serve tea when you're thirsty. It's been hot recently. No need to burn charcoal to warm his clothes and let him get up and wear them, right?"

"It's been hot recently, so it should be for the younger brother to make the master cooler before wearing it. Xiangsheng and I don't have much talent in Taoism, and besides, this is also our duty."

Li Su rubbed his forehead and sighed. "The talent in Taoism is so great that you don't need to work hard. I have never seen the second one except for the master who is regarded as a baby by you. Talent is not an excuse for the two brothers not to work hard."

Li Su looked at Liu Yichi who was eating watermelon bite by bite. This person was very strong, but he was also a troublemaker, but Liu Yichi might not realize how strong he was, but at the same time, he didn't realize how troublesome he was. "Staying next to your new temple master is very dangerous. The two senior brothers have strong Taoism. In the future, when your temple master gets into trouble that he can't handle himself, the two senior brothers will at least have a little more ability to protect themselves .”

"Buyan and I remembered what Junior Brother Li said." Xiang Sheng said, then smiled, "Junior Brother Li, I don't know if you have noticed that you are spoiling Junior Brother too?"

Li Su choked when Xiang Sheng said it, what a coincidence, it really is.This troublesome spirit does have a "charm" that others can't help but get used to.

"Liu Yichi, what you put into your mouth now is the last piece of watermelon in your hand, it's time to go out to work." Li Su said to Liu Yichi, he found that Liu Yichi's speed of gnawing the watermelon had slowed down significantly, and then His eyes fell on Buyan, and he squinted at him, "Senior Brother Buyan, don't give him any more watermelon, today's fruit portion is enough."

Bu Yan who just raised his buttocks to get up, sat down silently again.

"Why don't rich and rich people like Liu Ze ask me to exorcise ghosts?" Liu Yichi lamented as he walked this way, "How much a hundred gold killing ghost pills are for sale! If there is one A hundred... No, it doesn't need a hundred people, ten people are enough, if one person asks me to sell a killing ghost pill, I will have a thousand gold. Is it because Liu Ze didn't recommend me to his rich friends? Did I want Go to Qingtai County again and remind him tactfully?"

"Liu Yichi!" Li Su looked at him.

"Ah... I said something I shouldn't have said again, right?" Liu Yichi rolled his eyes, "But what I just said is wrong?"

"Liu Ze is a mortal, and a mortal's friend is..."

"It's also a mortal." Liu Yichi answered immediately. He looked at the three people who were alarmed, and immediately comforted them. His eyes slowly moved over the sight of each of them, and said sincerely: "I know, Taoist and Taoist There is a wall between mortals. No matter how rich mortals are, I can't make money from them. What happened to Liu Ze's family was an accident, and I had to do it at that time. Okay...don't look at me with such eyes. Are you following me?"

Not long after Liu Yichi finished speaking, he heard someone walking in, "Excuse me, is this Tianyi Temple? I heard that this place accepts orders from ordinary people?"

"Cough...I didn't find this person, I found this person myself." Liu Yichi whispered to the three people in front of him.

"Please find the troublemaker." Li Su said helplessly.

"I know you're calling me a troublemaker behind your back!" Liu Yichi leaned over, "Li Su, look at the man standing there, he's dressed even better than Liu Ze, that's a moving human-shaped gold coin! By the way, really Are there no Taoists who secretly take orders from mortals? Is there no black market? If I go to the black market and ask Taoists to exorcise ghosts for mortals, will there be any Taoists to take orders?"

Li Su: "..."

"I don't answer questions I haven't met before."

Liu Yichi's eyes lit up, "Then why don't we go to the black market for a try? One hundred gold to drive away ghosts for mortals?"

Li Su: "..." He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then said, "Rich Taoists are very rare, and rich mortals are even less. If you bump into someone who can give you a hundred gold to buy ghost pills, don't say anything." They are mortals, even Taoists probably won’t be able to find too many people.”

"Then try this person." Liu Yichi turned around, walked towards the mortal with a smile on his face.

"Senior brothers, have you seen it? Cultivate hard." Li Su said to Xiangsheng and Buyan like this, sooner or later there will be a time when he can't handle this big trouble.

Xiangsheng/No words:  …

Seeing that the people in the Taoist temple not only did not chase him away, but came over with a smile on their faces, Xia Jie was relieved. He stepped forward and said, "This must be Daoist Liu, my name is Xia Jie."

"Come and sit, brother, bring a stool for this guest."

Seeing that there were still uncleaned bowls and chopsticks on the table, Xia Jie said apologetically, "I'm really sorry for disturbing all the Taoists. personal."

Liu Yichi turned his head to look at Li Su, raised his eyebrows, and said with his eyes: "Look, I'll say it's a gold coin in human shape."

"Looking for someone? Five hundred gold coins?" Li Su didn't bother to talk to Liu Yichi, his tail was up to the sky. He asked this mortal, but this was for Liu Yichi, and he could give out five hundred gold coins. Gold coins looking for someone, what can be a good job?There must be something wrong.

Xia Jie nodded, "I'm looking for a Taoist."

It's a bit interesting for a mortal to find a Taoist.

"Tell me." Liu Yichi picked it up with more interest, regardless of whether the person he was looking for was a Taoist, five hundred gold coins alone was enough to interest him.

"The person I'm looking for is my niece, my sister's child." Xia Jie said.

"Wait, you are a mortal, and your niece is a Taoist?" Liu Yichi asked.

Xia Jie nodded, "Yes, my niece is a child born to the same Taoist priest as my sister. Not long after my sister was with him, their affairs were exposed. Because the child is a Taoist priest, she was taken away by the man's family. , My sister was left alone to wash her face with tears. Over the years, my sister has been sick from overwork, and her health has become worse and worse recently, and she has been chanting the name of the child for the past month. I sent some people to secretly go to the gathering place of Taoists to inquire. I wanted to bring my niece out to see my sister for the last time."

"However, there will be a but after this."

Xia Jie glanced at Liu Yichi and nodded. "However, what I have learned is that the niece has been evicted from the settlement."

Because of the presence of ghosts and ghosts at night, even the Taoists do not move far away, and always live around the settlement.But for those who were expelled from the settlements, none of the settlements dared to accept them, let alone find them, they might not even know whether they were dead or alive.

"That's why you came to me? Which settlement is your niece originally from?" Liu Yichi asked.

"People from Wangzitun." Xia Jie said.

"Wangzitun? Huh? Why is it familiar?" Liu Yichi said.

Seeing that Liu Yichi couldn't remember anymore, Li Su reminded from the side, "Northern prairie."

"Ah——" Liu Yichi just remembered that when he was hunting Kuiyi's heart before, Li Su introduced to him that the northern prairie is mainly a hunting place for three settlements: Yanjiacun, Xujiaba and Wangzi. Tuen.

"Here is three hundred gold coins, please take it from Daoist Liu." Xia Jie handed Liu Yichi a pouch, "The doctor said that with my sister's current physical condition, she might last half a year, but it's not good, maybe He will pass away in three or four months. No matter what, Daoist Liu please help us find someone. Even if, even if we can’t find someone, or there is some bad news, after half a year, I will definitely give you the other two hundred gold coins. superior."

The reason why people have been following the rules and living step by step according to the living rules of the settlement is because the night is too dangerous, and being expelled from the settlement is basically a dead end.

Xia Jie couldn't tell whether his niece was still alive. He had already prepared the worst plan in his heart. Up to now, he still didn't dare to tell his sister the news that his niece was expelled from the settlement. I want to hold on.

"Please try your best to help us find Yiyi!" Xia Jie still dare not admit that his niece is gone, and he hopes things will develop in a better direction.

"How old is your niece?"

"28 is old."

"Yiyi's full name is Prince Xiayi."
