But after going downstairs, I saw many monks and nuns suddenly sitting in the living room. Sometimes it was obvious that some of them contained mana fluctuations. This situation was a bit unusual in this nameless "Ping An Town"!
Along the way, Xie Yu had seen people practicing with magic power in some Taoist temples.
But after all, the number of people is small, low-key and not crowded.
The monks drinking tea in the living room naturally noticed Xie Yu, a poor old ugly monk wearing old monk clothes. They just thought that Xie Yu was like them and came to reveal the list, so they didn't pay much attention to him.
Sitting in a deserted corner, the waiter naturally came over to make tea and water. Xie Yu didn't look at the menu this time.
I just ordered two bowls of some noodles and drank tea while waiting.
Of course, listen to what these practitioners talk about.
It turns out that Yang Yuan, a wealthy and wealthy landowner in this town, lives outside Yang Ban Town, and his ancestral home is haunted by ghosts.
Because I was afraid of causing trouble and not harming the neighbors and villagers, I did not report it to the official.
However, the ancestral home was haunted by demons, which would always harm its reputation, so he offered a reward of a hundred taels of silver, and asked practitioners with magical powers to help eliminate the demons.
This can make the cultivators from ten miles around and eight villages extremely excited.
You must know that fifty taels of silver can buy a nice house in a prosperous area of the county, not to mention the purchasing power of one hundred taels of silver in the countryside.
In the countryside, it would be no problem to buy a piece of land with these hundred taels of silver and build a small simple Taoist temple made of adobe with three courtyards.
However, Xie Yu was not moved. After all, his Ruyi clone had impersonated many non-members, squires and landlords, although the direction and purpose were different.
But he just "got" a handful from his bank account. Now Xie Yu's belly bag contains not only 5,000 in cash, but also a hundred taels of gold, not to mention the copper coins that are commonly used in daily life. They are all official copper coins in bunches. It's not a small amount of private money.
It's a pity that you don't dare to spend the money randomly. After all, with Xie Yu's background, you need a valid reason to spend money.
Otherwise, we won't just rely on our own eleven carriages on this journey. It's not just to keep a low profile to prevent moral mismatches from happening. Stability and integrity are essential qualities for travelers.
Xie Yu was indeed a little moved when he heard the words about subduing demons and eliminating ghosts, but when he saw that there were at least a dozen monks and Taoists in this place, he would not be able to distinguish between demons and ghosts when it was his turn, so he gave up his thoughts. .
As soon as I finished a bowl of plain noodles, I heard several Taoist novice boys running into the inn, shouting as they ran:
"Master, let's start, let's start..."
"Master, Yang Guanjiaqing is here for us to come into the house. Good Xi Noodles, that dish..."
"Tong'er, it's unreasonable..."
Although he said this, after half a bowl of plain noodles, Xie Yu was the only one left in the entire inn living room.
Although no one was paying the bill, the store owner was not in a hurry. It seemed that Mr. Yang had already greeted him.
Even though Xie Yu is now thin and dry, his appetite is still acceptable. After all, he is a cultivator.
So, after a few more mouthfuls of noodles, Xie Yu shouted: "Xiaoer, have another bowl of plain noodles, but add two eggs."
"Okay..."
After eating, digest food.
Well, let’s take a nap!
After this sleep, the sun was almost setting, but it also allowed Xie Yu to drive away the fatigue of the past few days.
After all, ancient times are not like modern society, with planes, trains, buses, and highways.
Various small hills and muddy dirt roads are obstacles to travel.
I just happened to be hungry again, so the three bowls of plain noodles in the morning were not enough!
In fact, this kind of person also wants to eat meat and meat, but after being ordained by the great monk Qingshui, he was given an ultimatum. Now he is a serious monk, so he should not drink wine and eat meat like other trouble-making predecessors.
Just as I was thinking about asking for a plain table like yesterday, I happened to walk downstairs.
"Hey, there's still such a quarrel!"
I saw monks, young and old, and nuns sitting on the dining table in the living room downstairs. Some of them I had seen in the morning, some of whom I had never seen before.
It's just that their sitting posture and clothes are not as elegant and clean as they were in the morning.
Moreover, their demeanor was not so energetic, and some monks even showed fear. It seemed that their work of exterminating demons and subduing ghosts was not going well.
Without asking too much, Xie Yu waited in the corner after booking another plain table.
When the vegetarian banquet was served, Xie Yugang took two bites of vegetarian meat and bean curd.
I heard a burst of hurried footsteps outside, and the noise of turbulent words rushed into the guest room.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a sinister look on his face, dressed in a housekeeper's uniform, followed by seven or eight strong guards with fierce looks on their faces.
The housekeeper walked directly to an old Taoist who seemed to have some authority and said sinisterly:
"Dao Zhang Ding, my master spent a lot of money to ask you to find someone to clean my Yang family's ancestral house."
"How are you doing? I heard that you still want to sneak away."
Daochang Ding said forcefully: "Steward Yang, your information is wrong!"
"The origin of the rat demon must be unusual. It can swallow the incense of your ancestral hall and form an existence like an earth-bound spirit. Could it be that your Yang family has offended some high-level cultivator."
"The little old man has little magic power and only has a few years of scattered Taoist practice. He still wants to stay alive and take care of himself in old age, so he doesn't dare to participate randomly."
I asked Butler Yang about this. After hesitating for a while, Butler Yang said: "My master is usually very charitable and welcomes guests from all directions..."
There was a burst of random praise, and seeing a lot of people curling their lips, Xie Yu knew it was fake.
At this time, a man who was impatient or had a clear conscience said bluntly: "Steward Yang, don't brag nonsense. You guys naturally know what's going on in Yang Banzhen. We all came here for the sake of the silver reward." , but yours is a bit big, and we big guys don’t want to risk our lives.”
"Xiaodao will give you a more practical idea. You'd better ask the Xuanjing Division to come over!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene fell silent for a while and someone whispered:
"Invite those jackals to come. At least five hundred taels of silver can't stop them. If you don't find out other things, you may have your family confiscated and wiped out. Who doesn't know that such a wealthy family likes to do dirty things."
Butler Yang simply ignored these words and said: "Let's do this. My master said that he can increase the reward to two hundred taels and give him a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, but I don't know if there is any other expert who has the means to return it." I hope you won’t be stingy if you haven’t used it yet.”
As soon as these words came out, the money really touched people's hearts, and a few people who were hesitant at first seemed to have made some decision.
In fact, as long as these people have magical power and means, no matter whether they are orthodox or heretical, they will naturally have their own trump card means to be able to travel in the world.
But the reason why the trump card is the trump card must come with a price.
Sure enough, one of the Taoist priests said: "Steward Yang, he said that he wanted to subdue the rat demon that turned into an earth-bound spirit. This Taoist priest still has some abilities to keep things under control."
"It's just that once this ability is used, it will consume ten years of Pindao's life, which can be said to be several decades in one's life."
After hearing this, although he was frustrated, Butler Yang was really happy. He was most afraid that no one would accept the reward offered by his family. As long as his Yang family was still in Ping'an Town, there would be no shortage of money and medicine.
