Fucheng.

After so many days of severe drought, after these days of continuous rain, there is a lot of greenery in Fucheng.

There are many weeds and wild flowers with tenacious vitality on the roadside, sprouting like bamboo shoots after rain.

Jin An thought of a passage he had read——

The wind roared and rolled, and the rain came like a sword. The wild grass never bowed to the storm, and stood upright on the barren land against the storm.

Why don't people use this as a metaphor for themselves?
Not long ago, there was still a severe drought, and the lifeless Fucheng, after several days of continuous rainfall, Fucheng gradually became prosperous again, and the streets were full of people.

"Little brother, what do you want to buy this trip?"

On the way, two Taoist priests, one old and one young, were walking on the streets of the market. The old Taoist asked curiously.

Jin An didn't hide it, he told his plan, and the old Taoist was amazed after hearing it, saying, little brother, you have made so many preparations, are you preparing for the opening of the passage and entering the Paradise of Paradise?

The old Taoist just asked curiously, seeing that Jin An didn't nod and didn't object, he didn't ask any more questions.

The procurement of supplies went well.

It was the yellow talisman papers requested by the old Taoist priests, and it took a few more trips to find the Fushou shops. It's not that the yellow talisman papers were hard to find, but that the yellow talisman papers that met the requirements of the old Taoist priests were hard to find.

These days there are few real Taoist priests, but there are many fake Taoist priests, fake witches, and fake Fengshui masters who cheat people of money. These people don't know that there are so many taboos and taboos on a piece of seemingly ordinary yellow talisman paper, as long as the price is cheap.In order to avoid the risk of inventory, the owner of Fushou shop also stocked up on fake yellow talisman paper or low-quality yellow talisman paper to deceive laymen.

This is called bad money driving out good money.

When you are surrounded by filth and you are the only one who is awake, then you are a sinner.

Jin An accompanied the old Taoist priest to find four or five Fushou shops before he bought the real yellow talisman paper.

In fact, they have been in Fucheng for so long, and the old Taoist priests usually have a regular place to buy yellow talisman papers. It's just that the owner of the shop closed down and fled to other places due to the severe drought a while ago.

"Two priests, may I tell you which Taoist temple you are from?" When sending Jin'an and the old Taoist out, the owner of the Fushou shop asked with a polite smile.

"how?"

The old Taoist didn't hide it, and directly said that the two of them came from the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera.

The owner of the Fushou shop smiled and explained the reason: "It is not common to understand the taboos of yellow talisman paper and cinnabar these days. To tell the truth to the two priests, these yellow talisman papers have been accumulated in the store for almost a year and have not been sold. Those laymen who don't know the goods shook their heads and left when they heard that the yellow talisman paper was so much more expensive than their peers. This yellow talisman paper can't be stored for too long, and it also occupies a place in the store. How to deal with these yellow talisman papers."

"If I hadn't met two Taoists who know the goods today, I would have planned to sell them as fake yellow talismans after a while, and would not buy such thankless real goods in the future."

"Since the two Taoist priests are people who know the goods, they must be people with real skills. Occasionally, some people encounter some bad luck. They come to my Fushou store to find someone with real skills who can help them solve their bad luck. From now on, I will help them solve their bad luck. They introduced the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera."

When it comes to this, the owner of the Fushou shop said with emotion: "People like us who do business with dead people, the more they do business with dead people, the more they believe in the merits of Fulukangshou and the theory of reincarnation in future generations. This is also a gift for me and future generations. Accumulate a merit and virtue to eliminate disasters and difficulties."

The words of the owner of the Fushou shop were not exaggerated.

Every industry has its own circle and various taboos and taboos.

These Fushou shops firmly believe that by doing the business of the dead, they are giving the living in the world a chance to pay homage to their relatives, earning yin virtue and merit, and blessing their descendants.

"Blessed Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate."

"The benefactor is also a great kind person. I would like to thank the boss for his kindness today on behalf of future benefactors."

The old Taoist said with a solemn expression.

"Today, the boss has formed a good relationship with our Wu Zang Taoist Temple. In the future, when our Wu Zang Taoist Temple needs these things for doing things, we will definitely think of the boss's Fushou shop immediately."

Some things don't need to be said too clearly, they smiled at each other tacitly, the owner of the Fushou shop smiled politely and said that the boss is too polite, everything is silent.

Jin'an didn't expect that when he went out to buy yellow talisman paper, he could take the opportunity to promote the Taoist Temple of the Five Zang organs. In the future, the Taoist Temple of the Five Zang organs will have more incense believers.

After coming out of the Fushou shop, Jin An was in a good mood, and praised the old Taoist priest so much that his tail would go up to the sky. What if the old Taoist priest had a tail?

Walking on the way back to the Taoist Temple, the street is very lively.

After a rain, the earth returned to coolness again, and people took to the streets one after another, some selling candied haws, some selling oil, some selling mung bean cakes, some looking for part-time workers, and some buying rice at rice shops.

There are also children chasing and playing around the candied haws vendors, running around.

"Ice cold cake, sell cold cake, delicious and sweet, refreshing and delicious cold cake...Eating a bowl of cold cake in summer can relieve summer heat, clear away heat and dampness, strengthen spleen and stop diarrhea..."

In front of a shop specializing in cold cakes, there was a child standing at the door and yelling at the top of his voice, attracting passers-by.

A couple were busy in the shop.

The childish child who yelled hard should be the couple's son.

Jin An smiled and stopped at the door of the shop: "Old Taoist, let's pack five bowls of cold cakes and bring them back to the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera. Let's eat with Chijian and Uncle Lin."

When the old Taoist heard that there was cold cake to eat, he said yes with a smile on his face, and while recalling, he said that the last time he ate cold cake was last year.

The reason.

Very simple.

He is old-fashioned, and he can save as much as he can.

Speaking of this, Jin An couldn't help but curiously asked the old Taoist priest: "Old Taoist, every time we go out to perform deeds or exorcise evil spirits, the profit given by others is money, and I will share half with you. We have also made a lot of money in the past six months. Lee is money, and an average family of three can't spend it all in a few years, why are you still so relaxed?"

"Every time we finish the ceremony, after the patrons give you money, you always disappear for a while. Where did you go during that time?"

Jin An asked the old Taoist priest.

But the old Taoist didn't seem to hear Jin An's question, he squeezed in front of the cold cake shop, waved to Jin An, saying that he had taken a good seat.

Seeing the old Taoist pretending to be crazy, Jin An shook his head and smiled, and did not expose the old Taoist: "Boss, please give us five bowls of cold cakes to pack, and we will take them away."

Jin An's words can make the boss feel embarrassed: "Two priests, this cold cake is only freshly fished out of the well water, and eaten in the cold is the best way to relieve heat and cool down, clear away heat and dampness."

"Besides, this cold cake can't be packed, the lotus leaf can't wrap the cold cake..."

Jin An took out the money bag from his body and said with a smile: "Boss, you can just sell me a bamboo basket and five bowls. There also happens to be a well in our Taoist temple. I will bring cold cakes back to eat with my disciples. We will not It will embarrass the shopkeeper, how much should we pay."

The boss finally found a bamboo basket and five clay bowls for Jin An. When Jin An wanted to pay, the boss politely said that these things were not worth much and gave them to the two priests for nothing.

Jin An smiled and didn't say much. Apart from the money for the cold cakes, he left an extra ten coppers to buy the boss's basket and bowl.

There is no such thing as a circle without rules.

He cannot destroy other people's business principles at will because of his personal desires.

If he doesn't pay today, more people will follow suit in the future, eventually dragging down the boss.

The boss is honest, and when he found out that Jin An had paid ten coppers more, he hurriedly chased him out to refund Jin An, but before he could chase him out of the shop, a middle-aged man who was about to buy cold cakes from his shop, Suddenly he grabbed the old Taoist with an excited expression: "Chen Daochang, great benefactor, great benefactor, I, Deshu, finally found you! Last time you left without saying goodbye, I, Deshu, thought I would never see you again in this life! You are me The savior of Tokuki's family!"

"Thank you Daoist Chen for your generous help last time, and paying for the medicine for my little girl. If it weren't for Daoist Chen, you helped us buy the medicine and paid two dongs last time. I... I... my daughter is probably dead now, and I can't call me daddy anymore. "

The middle-aged man became more and more excited as he spoke, and was so excited that he was a little incoherent. When he finished speaking, his voice was so choked that he wanted to kneel and kowtow.

"Chen Daochang, Chen Engong, I will never forget your great kindness and virtue! Don't worry, I will make money as soon as possible to pay back the money you paid for my little girl! Now my little girl has fully recovered from her illness, and I can go out wholeheartedly." I work part-time, and the child’s mother helps the wealthy family do some needlework, and we will make money together, and we will make money as soon as possible to pay back the money for the medicinal materials you helped us advance.”

The man's eyes were red, his voice was choked up, and his face was full of joy and gratitude. Seeing that De Shu was about to kneel, the old Taoist hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him.

But his strength as an old Taoist priest, how can he compare with the strength of a man, but fortunately Jin An reached out in time to help the old Taoist priest stop him from kneeling.

The man named De Shu insisted on kneeling and kowtowing to the old Taoist priest, but he blushed and couldn't kneel down. Jin An supported him with one hand, his arm was as motionless as Mount Tai, and De Shu looked at the old Taoist in shock. A young Taoist priest younger than him.

Unexpectedly, there is so much strength hidden under the beautiful body.

At this time, the people around heard the commotion and gathered around to watch the excitement. When everyone learned the whole story from De Shu's excited words, they all looked at the old Taoist priest with sincere admiration.

It turned out that Deshu and his wife had a daughter. Because the couple's family was poor, the wife did not eat well during pregnancy. The daughter was born prematurely. She was weak and sick since she was a child. Now she is almost six years old. She is thin and weak, with a sallow complexion.

The couple saw it in their eyes and were anxious in their hearts, but their family was poor, and they had been buying medicines for their daughter to maintain their health over the years, and they had spent almost all their savings, so they had no money to find a better doctor for their daughter. , completely cure the root cause of the disease.

They asked the doctor, if you want to cure it, you need a good medicine primer, at least several taels of silver.

But for them who are penniless and whose family has already radiated savings, it is undoubtedly a death sentence.

Just ten days ago, his six-year-old daughter fainted again. He carried her to see a doctor, but because he had no money to buy medicine, he refused to credit him for the medicinal materials even when he went to several medical clinics. He was in despair. , Fortunately, I met an old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest was making consultations, paying for medicines, and taking the initiative to advance the money for the medicines after running around for their family.

Deshu and his wife were grateful to the old Taoist priest. They originally wanted to keep this great benefactor at home for a meal, but the old Taoist left quietly while the couple were busy cooking, and did not leave a name for their good deeds.

Since taking the medicine, her daughter is getting better these days, and she is much more cheerful and lively than before. Seeing her getting better every day, De Shu is really happy from the bottom of his heart. No, he took out a bowl from home The shop bought cold cakes here, intending to let his daughter cool off from the summer heat, but unexpectedly bumped into the benefactor, and he was so excited that he was incoherent on the spot.

Calculating according to the time, the day when De Shu met the old Taoist priest happened to be the day when Jin An and the old Taoist priest finished the ceremonies for the master of the Jia family. one day.

After listening to Deshu's words, the surrounding crowd applauded loudly, saying that Deshu had met the great benevolent person of the ninth generation, and there are still such unscrupulous people in this world who have such little fame and fortune. Then everyone asked which local Taoist temple this is The two Taoist priests who came out, they will go to burn a stick of incense later, it must be very effective.

Before the old Taoist could speak to Jin An, someone in the crowd recognized the five-color Taoist robe on Jin An's body, and shouted loudly: "I remember that there is only one Taoist temple in Fucheng where Taoist priests wear five-color Taoist robes. They come from the five internal organs. Taoist!"

"I heard that half a year ago, a few Taoist priests came to the Taoist temple of the five internal organs, and then the Taoist temple of the five internal organs began to prosper, with more and more incense, and quickly became famous in Fucheng. Even the local wealthy He family took the initiative to expand and renovate the Taoist temple Among the new Taoist priests, there happened to be one old and one young, about the same age as the two Taoist priests in front of us."

When it comes to the Taoist temple of the five internal organs, everyone has some impressions.

"I've heard of the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera. The Taoist temple that has recently been expanded on a large scale in Fucheng is the only Taoist temple."

"I've also heard the reputation of the Taoist temple of the five internal organs. There are real gods in this Taoist temple of the five internal organs. I heard that the He family, the Xue family, and the Jia family have all invited masters from the Taoist temple of the five internal organs to do things."

"Which He family, Xue family, Jia family?"

"Nonsense, there are He's, Xue's, and Jia's in Fucheng. Of course, they are the He's, Xue's, and Jia's of the three major medicinal herb families."

People discussed more and more intensely. The cold cake shop owner who originally wanted to return ten copper coins to Jin'an was stunned when he heard that Wuzang Taoist Temple was so famous.

Seeing more and more people gathered around, the old Taoist clasped his fists and said to the people around him: "Old Taoist, I would like to thank everyone for your kindness and love. At present, the Taoist temple of the five internal organs has not been fully repaired. Welcome everyone to wait for the Taoist temple to be repaired and complete before reopening the door." On the day of receiving benefactors, come to my five internal organs Taoist temple to offer incense, and then I will give you a free fortune-telling fortune-telling for all benefactors."

When the people around heard that there was free fortune-telling, they all clapped their hands and praised the old Taoist priest and the Taoist temple of the five internal organs.

At this time, the old Taoist priest did not forget to promote the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera. He pulled Jin An who was standing aside: "This is the master of the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera. Zhang'No? It's about the exorcism ability of the master of the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera."

"Which one is better at exorcising demons? We have to look for Taoist Master Jin'an of the Five Viscera Taoist Temple in Fucheng!"

Jin An looked at the spittle flying all over the place, dumbfounded, and never forgot to promote the Taoism of the five internal organs wherever he went.

The old Taoist really regarded the Taoist temple of the five internal organs as his home.

There is Jin'an, which includes food and lodging.

There is a sharp sword who works hard to help them guard the Taoist temple.

There is a big brother goat, bah, bah, bah... The old Taoist subconsciously recognized the goat as a big brother, so he hurriedly poohed it.

When the old Taoist introduced the Taoist temple of the five internal organs to the people around him, he spared no effort and his eyebrows were beaming.

Jin'an and the old Taoist went out to buy supplies, and they forged two good relationships, and the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera gained a lot of believers.

Everything is ready. The only thing left to do is to reopen the Taoist Temple of the Five Zang organs after it has been repaired and completed. Now the Taoist Temple of the Five Zang organs has not been repaired and perfected, and many details are still incomplete, so it has not yet officially opened to accept incense. Currently, the Taoist Temple of the Five Zang organs is visited by He, Xue, and Jia. believers.

In the end, De Shu grabbed the old Taoist priest and Jin An tightly with both hands, and said that he would take the two of them to his house as guests today, and let the child kill an old hen used to lay eggs to honor the two nobles.

……

The Deshu family was very polite and respectful to the old Taoist priest and Jin An.

The couple cooked a large table of meals after busy work, and stayed until the curfew at sunset, when Jin An and the old Taoist left.

Walking on the way back to the Taoist Temple.

Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest with a smile: "Old Taoist, no wonder you have always been a free-spirited Taoist priest. You have spent most of your life as a wandering Taoist priest, but you haven't saved much savings. It turned out that you used it to help the poor."

"It's no wonder that every time we finish the ritual and get the money, you always disappear for a long time, old Taoist priest. It turns out that you have gone to spread the money."

"This is a good deed, old Taoist priest, don't cover it up in the future, just be generous."

When it came to this, Jin An thought with his eyes: "But I'm curious about why, old Taoist priest, you have to spend all the money every time you earn money, and don't save more for yourself. Your wealth is more than a hundred coppers. I am not opposed to the old Taoist priest’s charitable deeds of helping others, but I just think that people should save more for themselves, so that if there is an emergency and you need money urgently in the future, you will not be in a mess.”

The old Taoist was still the same old Taoist, and said with a smile: "Money is something outside of the body. If you don't bring it with you when you die, it's useless if you don't have too much. I'll follow my little brother for the rest of my life, as long as you have food, drink and shelter."

"It's rare in the world to be happy a few times. The old Taoist, I neither seek immortality nor longevity. I just want the breeze to blow my face and be at ease."

Jin An is not stupid.

He could see that the old Taoist was playing sloppy with him.

The old Taoist usually behaves a little greedy for money, but every time he gets the money, he immediately spends it all, helping the poor, doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, and his savings never exceed a hundred coppers. This is not as simple as the old Taoist said.

But he had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.

……

Taoist temple of the five internal organs.

"Cut the sword and see what Master brought you, cold cake."

"Now the cold cake is a little cold, let's put it in the well water to freeze it for a while, and then take it out to Uncle Lin's coffin shop to eat together after dinner."

Jin'an bought a total of five cold cakes, three of them, one goat, and Uncle Lin each.

But these cold cakes were re-bought by Jin An later, and he gave the five cold cakes he bought for the first time to Deshu's family.

This cold cake tastes really special after being chilled in well water.

Cold, sweet, sore throat.

According to what the old Taoist said, it can be compared with the big iced watermelon that Mrs. He Jia invited them to eat.

After eating and drinking, it's time to get down to business.

Because it is much easier to carve characters on the gourd this time than to copy the scriptures on the Taoist robe, and there is no need to worry about being burned through the cloth like the Taoist robe by the fire-poisoned inner energy and the holy blood robbery thunder method, so Jin An picked up the carving knife and felt at ease. The "Golden Light Mantra" was engraved on the gourd.

There were no surprises during this.

Perhaps it was due to the fact that he practiced with a stone tablet for an hour before the official engraving, and everything went smoothly.

Order!When the last two characters were engraved, the "Golden Light Mantra", which originally looked like an ordinary gourd with ordinary engraved characters, was stirred by thunder and fire in an instant.

Extraordinary is born.

Edicts have profound meanings in Taoism.

It means the decree issued by the Sanqing Tianzun.

It is also an edict implying Taoist talisman, law and seal.

It means that the decree is established and the law is established.

The phenomenon of thunder and fire dissipated after a few breaths. Jin An found that the color difference on the surface of the gourd was too obvious. After thinking about it, he asked the old Taoist priest for some cinnabar, ground it into fine powder and dissolved it in water. After stirring it was almost the same. , Start brushing the gourd over and over again.

Every time it is brushed, Jin'an will dry it with the internal energy of the Black Mountain Buddha, and then brush it again.

So again and again.

Until those inscriptions were all filled with cinnabar, the original yellow gourd became a red gourd with cinnabar red.

Seal!

One thousand virtues!
With all his strength, Jin An took out another Five Thunder Slaying Evil Talisman and sealed it.

An edict!One thousand virtues!
An edict!Two thousand virtues!

An edict!Three thousand virtues!

An edict!Four thousand virtues!

All of a sudden, [-] yin virtues were lost!
When the four imperial seals were made, the avenue tide in Jin An's hand lasted for about ten breaths before it finally faded away, and a brand new four-time imperial seal five thunders and evil talisman appeared in Jin An's hands.

The pattern of the five thunders on the yellow talisman is more domineering, and the aura of pure yang is more mellow, and I feel the palpitations that are completely different from the three-time seal of the five thunders and evil talisman.

Just a gaze.

Jin An actually felt the pain in his eyes.

It's not because of his evil intentions that he can't look directly at the divine magic thunder, but because there are rotten thunders on the pattern of five thunders.

The lightning on the yellow talisman was so thick that it seemed that even the talisman paper could not suppress it.

The manic and domineering Lei Fa is about to move on the surface of the talisman paper, and will explode uncontrollably at any time... The palpitating vast thunder power makes Jin An's temples twitch. He has a hunch that if this yellow talisman is really let The uncontrolled explosion, not to mention the Taoist temple of the five internal organs, is afraid that this street will be razed to the ground and turned into a scorched earth sinkhole.

Jin An held the Five Thunder Slaying Evil Talisman in his hand, trying to figure out the lightning technique on it would take a cup of tea to completely control the yellow talisman in his hand.

When he was done with all this work, his spirit was a little tired, and he took out the Six Ding Liujia Talisman to rest his mind and soul, and then he recovered.

Originally, he planned to seal the Five Lightning Slashing Evil Talisman five times at once, but it seems that this idea has been stopped for now.

The four imperial conferments are already the limit of what he can control with his current cultivation base, and he can only continue to confer the imperial edicts until his cultivation reaches a higher level.Jin An was worried that the next imperial seal would not be able to control the yellow talisman, and worried that Wu Lei would really lose control and detonate.

Breathing Technique.

Now Yinde, forty-seven thousand 430.
