On the second day, Xiaoqian and others finished their homework, took nectar and washed away their sins, and were about to go out to work.
Suddenly, a woman rushed to the gate.
"Jin Yan? Why are you back?"
Xiaoqian looked at the woman in astonishment and asked.
The woman Jinyan saw everyone and asked quickly: "I'm late, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, are you paying off your sins so quickly?"
Seeing that she was exhausted, Xiaoqian quickly called for help to help her enter the conservatory, and couldn't help but ask.
"Huh, you're fine."
Upon hearing this, Jinyan let out a sigh of relief and let the two sisters beside him support him.
He took a breath and said, "I never went far, I only stayed nearby.
The day before yesterday, I heard rumors that the mountains were in darkness, and suddenly the entire mountaintop was gone.
I was worried, so I rushed back.
Seeing that everyone was fine, I felt relieved. . "
As he spoke, he immediately struggled to get up.
"Now that my sins have not been eliminated and I have no face to see the temple master, I will not enter the temple.
When in the future, when your merits are complete and your kindness is full, you can come again to see the Master. "
As he said that, he turned around and staggered away.
"this……"
Seeing her like this, Xiaoqian and others didn't know what to do.
"Now that you're back, let's rest for a couple of days."
Just as everyone was hesitating, they suddenly heard the door behind them creak open.
Lingqing sat in the main hall and said to Jinyan.
"You have this intention, how can I be a heartless person? Come back and take a rest.
This merit is endless, and the kindness is boundless. It is not just a momentary achievement, but it is no less than this moment. "
Jin Yan paused when he heard Ling Qing's voice.
Upon hearing this, he turned around and bowed to the ground in thanks.
"Thank you so much, Master!"
When Xiaoqian and others heard this, they immediately helped her look back with joy.
Then one after another people returned to the mountain covered in dust.
After hearing the news, they all worried about the safety of the temple and wanted to come back and have a look.
Lingqing simply sent a message to everyone, asking everyone to go back to the mountain to rest.
It just so happens that I can verify everyone’s recent merits and deeds, and also help clear up my doubts.
After all, what you learn on paper is ultimately shallow, and just relying on the principles mentioned before may not be enough to achieve merit.
There is a difference between knowing and doing.
Xiaoqian and others happily went to convey the news to everyone after hearing this.
Before going down the mountain, Lingqing also passed on some communication techniques to prevent everyone from being accidentally trapped.
It is easy to use to ask for help from nearby sisters, but now it is suitable to use it to notify.
Everyone was so happy after receiving the news that they immediately dealt with the things at hand and rushed to the mountain.
Xiao Zhuo is also average. He just saved another child who fell into the water.
He didn't care to listen to his parents' overwhelming thanks and feel the kindness and heart-warming feeling in them, so he hurried up the mountain.
After this period of good deeds, they have indeed accumulated a lot of reputation.
Because Ling Qing had made an explanation before, not to reveal where he was from.
Therefore, I didn't dare to say anything along the way, for fear of violating the teachings.
I only dare to pick them up and fly away on the lotus platform when no one is around.
As the saying goes, the more urgent it is, the more wasted it will be.
Now is the year of the Great Competition. Since the beginning of June, many scholars and scholars have gathered in Jinhua Fucheng.
The purpose is to participate in the triennial provincial examination competition.
Along the way, no matter the roads or alleys, you can meet some scholars carrying book boxes and talking a lot.
It's hard for her to miss out on her secrets, so she can only pretend to be an ordinary chivalrous woman traveling around the world to blind others.
The rural examination is also called Qiuwei, so named because it is held in August.
During the Ming Dynasty, those who passed the provincial examination were qualified to serve as officials, which was the most important and arduous step in the imperial examination.
There are three games in total, on the 9th, 12th and 15th of August respectively.
It can be said that the first place in the dynasty is different from the clouds and the mud.
Now that the season is approaching, people are gathering in large numbers.
It doesn't matter if it's just a scholar, these scholars will always bring one or two book boys with them.
In addition, some families with big businesses have dozens of followers.
So many people gathered at once, and the buildings in Jinhua Mansion were already filled with candidates who came to take the exam.
Even in the nearby small town of Guobei County, housing prices have soared as a result.
This makes some people who are short of money and those who like peace and quiet find ways to find other places to stay.
At this time when literati gathered and righteousness was surging, few ghosts dared to come out to cause trouble.
Therefore, everyone did not care about the ghost fox legends of the past, and only found secluded places to study in peace.
On this day, two scholars, one from the middle school and the other from the Youth League, each carrying a book case, accompanied a young and handsome monk out of Guobei County and looked around.
They arrived late, even the farmhouses in the county were rented.
I was tired of the noisy city and it was not a place to study, so I was ready to find a secluded place.
The young scholar came out of the city gate and saw the clear sky in the east, and he felt happy in his heart.
He said to his friend beside him: "That's a good place to go. If you can find a few broken tiles to cover yourself, it's better than the fly camp in the city."
As he spoke, he stepped forward.
The middle-aged scholar and young monk looked at the peaceful and upright hilltop and hesitated.
When the scholar saw that the two of them had not moved, he turned around and called out.
"Mr. Boming, Master Faming, let's leave quickly. If we are late, we will be overtaken by others."
These two people were Confucian doctor Wang Boming and monk Faming who entered the dungeon together with Lingqing Zhuguang.
The scholar with them was Ning Caichen, the man who was on par with Xu Xian and Dong Yong.
After the two entered the dungeon, they were separated from each other, and it was only by chance that they bumped into each other.
On the way, I met Ning Caichen again, so we agreed to come to Jinhua to take the exam together.
The main reason is that Wang Boming is ready to try out what ranking he can achieve.
The identity he chose was that of a scholar, and he had the qualifications for reference.
After just doing some preparation, he impressed several great scholars with his own knowledge, so he was allowed to take the exam nearby.
This act of impersonating one's nationality has been banned repeatedly, not to mention that this was the last year of the dynasty.
Ritual and music have collapsed, corruption and fraud are emerging in endlessly in various places, and such things are considered commonplace.
So they came to Guobei County together, but Ning Caichen didn't like the noise in the city.
Coupled with the fact that he was short of money and didn't want to take advantage of them, he thought of finding a place to stay outside the city.
They naturally knew where the mountain was, and they had inquired about it in the city before.
A few days ago, someone discovered that he had mysteriously disappeared overnight.
Seeing him ramming straight there, I was helpless.
After all, the mountain looked quite different from what was rumored, but they were really interested in exploring the situation.
Seeing Ning Caichen's urging, the two looked at each other, nodded, and followed suit.
Ning Caichen was worried that someone would get ahead of him and he would not be able to find a good place.
He hurriedly walked forward, putting more than ten steps away from the two people behind him.
As he was walking, he suddenly saw a charming, fifteen or sixteen-year-old woman dressed in white, her skin reflected in the flowing clouds, suddenly appearing on the side of the road.
He was startled, and he came back to take a closer look.
Although I was wondering why she appeared in this wilderness, I thought she wanted to go to the county town.
Due to the defensiveness between men and women, they didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded.
"Where is the scholar going?"
When he turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly heard the woman ask.
