Chapter 2 Qianxun Taoist Temple

Starting the motorcycle, Ying Qi rushed to the south.

Not long after, he walked onto the winding mountain road.

After driving on the winding mountain road for a while, Ying Qi turned a path again.

After rushing on the path for more than twenty minutes, a Taoist temple that is quite large but already somewhat broken appears at the end of the path.

"The Temple of the Thousand Expedition."

Opening the gate of the Taoist Temple, Ying Qi turned around and pushed the motorcycle in.

The yard of Taoist temple was cleaned up very clean.

After putting down the motorcycle, Ying Qi first went to the kitchen to cook a little porridge, then carried some paper money to the back of the Taoist temple.

Qianxun Taoist Temple is as soon as you enter the yard, behind it is the "Shenzhu Hall". The Shenzhu Hall is not far from the courtyard wall. Under a locust tree is the master's tomb.

All of this was arranged according to the Master’s instructions during his lifetime.

Turning over the God Lord's Hall and coming to the master's grave, Ying Qi lit the paper money, and then knelt down in front of the grave and kowtowed three times.

Upon straightening his body, Ying Qi couldn't help but turn red again.

As soon as the master left, he had no relatives in this world.

...

I remember that when I was eight years old, Ying Qi, who was still picking up bottles on Denghong Street, Changge County, met his master for the first time.

At that time, Ying Qi raised his dirty little face and looked at the tall old man with some confusion about his face, who was blocking his way with a smile.

The old man also said one thing, "Follow me and go up the mountain to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing, and your beautiful wife and family!"

Since then, Ying Qi has followed his master to Huling in a daze, and came to the Qianxun Taoist Temple where birds do not shit, and has become a Taoist and vulgar little Taoist priest.

The reason why it is said to be a truth or not.

Because the master never asked him to be a Taoist priest's morning, middle, and evening classes, like Taoist priest's Taoist scriptures, meditation, opening a cauldron, praying for blessings, etc., he never taught him.

The reason why it is said to be vulgar.

It was because the master asked him to wear a Taoist robe when he was in the Taoist temple, and burn incense to the "Divine Lord" and the "Nine God Guards" worshipped in the Taoist temple every morning, noon and evening.

The master said that "no worries about food and clothing" was that shortly after he arrived at Qianxun Taoist Temple, the master began to teach him how to open up land and farm outside the Taoist temple.

It took more than half a year to reclaim three acres of wasteland.

After that, the master probably taught him some methods of farming. After throwing a few small bags of seeds for him, he left nothing and went out to travel.

In the first year, the three acres of wasteland that Yingqi reclaimed almost failed to recover.

When the master returned from a foreign trip at the end of the year, Ying Qi was as hungry as a monkey, relying entirely on the wild fruits, wild vegetables and mountain spring water around the Taoist temple, and barely survived.

The master didn't say anything, but just smiled and took out a few small bags of seeds for him, then lived in the Taoist temple for a month, and then went out again to travel.

The next year, the three acres of wasteland that Ying Qi reclaimed finally had some harvest. The wild fruits he deliberately protected around the Taoist temple and the wild vegetables and rapeseeds he scattered also gave him a lot of extra food.

So this year, he finally stopped starving and had enough food and clothing.

In the third year, Ying Qi, who was already eleven years old, relied on the three acres of land that he reclaimed, not only could he solve the problem of food and clothing, but also had some surplus grain.

It was at this time that the time for Master to travel every year began to decrease, and the time spent staying in the Taoist temple increased.

Of course, when you stay in the Taoist temple, Master’s diet naturally needs to be provided by Ying Qi.

This situation is obviously quite different from the reason Ying Qi thought in his mind that "protecting you to have no worries about food and clothing".

It's better to pick up bottles on the street of Lights.

You can pick up bottles and be free. Sometimes you are lucky, and a young lady from Guanghong Street will give him some money and let him stand at the intersection. If you find that kind of flash car appears, you will immediately report the news to the young lady.

What about now?

He is a child who works hard every day and has to support his master, his master.

well……

What about the promised "beautiful wife and beautiful couple"?

You've arranged it.

...

In fact, today is the sixth day after the death of Master.

In theory, Ying Qi shouldn't have gone out to make money before the first seventh is over.

But Ying Qi is really poor, very poor.

The Qianxun Taoist Temple never receives pilgrims, so naturally there is no income. Just repairing and repairing daily maintenance requires a lot of money to be continuously used.

This time, although the master died, he basically took care of the funeral by himself, he still used some money and basically used up all the savings in the Taoist temple.

Over the years, my master has not taught him any other way to make a living except for farming.

Ying Qi sometimes wants to learn something else, but the master always smiles and says, "Master has nothing to teach you, you have your own way to go."

A year ago, the master suddenly called him in front of him and said meaningfully, "Ying Qi, the time Master has stayed in this world is probably not much... From today on, you have to try to integrate into this society!"

However, Ying Qi really doesn't know how he should integrate into this society.

Without education and skill, how could such a person be recruited?

Besides, whenever you look for a job, you have to leave a picture of your identity. He wears a mask all year round and doesn't take off his body, and there is really no boss who would hire an employee like him.

So in the end, Ying Qi could only find a job of "extra" and "sculpture as a statue in the park".

Many others pretend to be statues for performance art, but Ying Qi has no idea what art is. He just wants to make money, that's all.

...

Leaving from the master's grave, Ying Qi returned to his house, took a simple shower, changed into a Taoist robe, and then came to the main hall of Qianxun Taoist Temple.

Ten statues of gods are enshrined in the main hall.

The most conspicuous one is the "Shador statue" in the middle and slightly in front of it.

This statue is slightly larger than other statues, about two meters tall, wearing a white robe, and golden armor appears and appears in the white robe.

Looking at the right hand of the statue, I saw a heavy black iron spear behind his right hand.

Overall, this statue has no vision of a solemn appearance or grinning, except for its tall and lifelike body, which is like a real person.

In addition to the statue in the middle, the other nine statues are seven men and two women. The nine people have different appearances, about half a position behind, and faintly guarding the left and right behind the highest statue in the center.

After burning incense to the Lord of God and the Nine God Guards one by one, Ying Qi returned to the kitchen and started having supper.

"Tomorrow is the first seventh day of Master. Starting the day after tomorrow, it's time to collect autumn harvest... During this period, I've been staying in the Taoist temple and I won't go out to make money for the time being."

Ying Qi said in his heart.

...

However, after the Master’s July 1st, something unexpected happened immediately, something unexpected happened to Ying Qi!
