I don't want to be king

Chapter 79

The changes in Baiyun City are getting bigger and bigger. The local residents are in it, and sometimes they don't feel it so obviously, but the merchants from other places feel it deeply.

The road is easier to walk. It used to take several months, but now it takes less than a month. Even if it rains, it will not delay the journey.

They couldn't imagine what it would be like if the road from Sanhe to Nanzhou was completely repaired!

The clean and tidy Baiyun City in front of them made them think they came to the wrong place?

The roads are made of concrete, the houses are brand new, and even the shacks are much less. The children who used to run around in the streets and chased them around the team have disappeared.

Moreover, when did the people of Baiyun City become so rich?

The goods that usually take ten days and a half months to sell can be sold out on the day they are delivered here.

The most important thing is that they didn't encounter a single hooligan during their journey, nor did they have a strong buying or selling incident.

From the mouths of the locals, they learned that those who maintain local law and order are called "black skins".

Anyone who fights or provokes troubles will be sent to reform through labor by Hei Pizi.

Looking around now, the streets are full of big girls and young wives shopping there recklessly.

In the past, such a thing was unimaginable!

The more the rich and beautiful daughters of local rich men and squires show their faces on the street, the more frequently Lin Yi goes to the streets.

With Hong Ying, the two of them squatted on the corner of the street in short shirts, and those who knew them did not dare to disturb them.

"This won't work, the legs are too short."

Lin Yi kept commenting on the girls who passed by.

"Well, the teeth are yellow, bad review"

"Damn, this figure is good,"

Lin Yi waited for her to turn around, and immediately sighed again, "You can't just look at the figure, it's actually a big face."

One person stupidly commented on more than a dozen, Hong Ying didn't respond for a long time, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little dull.

He got up and stretched, slowly wandered on the street, looked up and saw the tall spire on Baiyun Mountain.

Thinking that I haven't visited the temple on the mountain after coming to Baiyun Mountain for so long, I became interested in taking a look.

There are many carriages parked at the foot of the mountain leading to Baiyun Temple, and old ladies and young ladies get out of the carriages from time to time.

Because there are steps on the mountain, you need to go up step by step.

Lin Yi followed the big guys, stepping on the steps and walking up slowly. The mountain road is not straight up and down, but twists and turns, and goes around in a big circle.

Passing by a mountain spring, Lin Yi stretched his head out to drink several sips of water, washed his face with water, and then continued straight up the mountain.

The gate of the temple was very lively, and there were many stalls. Lin Yi bought a pancake, and just put it in his mouth, he saw an old Taoist priest waving at him.

Lin Yi glanced at the plaque on the gate of the temple again: Baiyun Temple.

I didn't come to the wrong place.

Driven by curiosity, he still walked towards the Taoist priest who measured the characters and told the fortune.

"The abbot of this temple is quite generous," Lin Yi said with a smile, "I allow you, a Taoist priest, to tell fortunes here."

"No, no," the old Taoist shook his head and said, "The layman is probably not a local."

"Why?" Lin Yi asked curiously.

The old Taoist said, "The locals know that there is a temple and a temple in Yunshan. The temple is Baiyun Temple, and the temple is Baiyun Temple."

Lin Yi looked around and asked, "Then where is the Baiyun Temple?"

The old Taoist pointed to the door plaque and said, "Isn't it?"

Lin Yi said, "Master Daoist, this clearly refers to the Baiyun Temple, not a concept."

The old Taoist said, "There is Dongyue Temple in Ankang City, so don't all the people living in it are bald donkeys?"

Lin Yi was stunned by the question, and said with a smile, "The Dongyue Temple in Ankang City is indeed a Taoist temple."

The old Taoist said, "Then why must this Baiyun Temple be the Bald Donkey Temple?"

Lin Yi was speechless, after all what he said made sense.

The old Taoist said proudly, "Enter this Baiyun Temple, those bald donkeys live on the left, and our Baiyun Temple is on the right."

"You live in a temple?"

Lin Yi suddenly thought of Mount Heng, and was not so surprised all of a sudden.

One of the eight great monsters in Nanyue is that monks and Taoists live together, open the door to meet each other, and share incense and fire.

The old Taoist snorted coldly, "Shoushan Fuyin, why can the bald donkey live, but the Taoist master can't live with me?"

Lin Yi finished chewing the pancake in his mouth, clapped his hands, and asked, "Tell me, why are so many people calling me?"

The old Taoist stroked his beard and said, "I look at the face of the pavilion, the sky is full, and the ground is round."

"Then it looks like the fate of great wealth?"

Lin Yi could memorize this set of jingles directly.

"No, no, no,"

The old Taoist shook his head and sighed, "The heavens are full, and the earth is round, but the eyes are dull, the soul is scattered, the six relatives are weak, and they overcome Taisui, and their vitality..."

Snapped!

Lin Yi slapped a few copper coins on the table.

"I want to hear a good word,"

Lin Yi said angrily, "If you dare to talk nonsense, believe it or not, I will demolish your Baiyun temple?"

Believe it or not.

But as long as an individual wants to hear good words, he is unwilling to hear unlucky words.

"I'm afraid the layman made a mistake." The old Taoist didn't take a second look at the copper coins on the table, "The Daoist is not a greedy person.

Besides, it's better for laymen to be more polite, this place is a fief with the prince.

But where there are rules, if you don't believe it, you can try it. "

"As a human being, it's best to stop when enough is enough."

Snapped!

Lin Yi put another five big coins on the table.

He is also cheap!

Just to hear good things!

"Although the layman wears coarse linen clothes, his face is fair and his fingers are delicate,"

The old Taoist looked at Hong Ying again, and said with a smile, "There are servants going in and out, it doesn't look like a poor family."

"Your eyes are poisonous enough. Let me tell you clearly that I have plenty of money. Your shameless appearance is very admirable,"

Lin Yi simply patted an ingot of about two taels of silver on the table this time, and said in a low voice, "Let's make a deal, you've been here all year round, do you know which lady is the most beautiful?"

The old Taoist flicked his sleeves, and the silver and copper plates on the table disappeared, he looked around, and then said seriously, "Sanhe is not an extrajudicial place, laymen should not be reckless.

Otherwise, I would have to go to labor reform. "

"A slender lady, a gentleman is good,"

Lin Yi said angrily, "I am also a person of status, so naturally I wouldn't be that disciple. You just need to tell me which lady is beautiful."

The old Taoist pretended to be profound and said, "It's far away in the sky, but it's close in front of us."

Lin Yi turned around curiously, followed the eyes of the old Taoist priest, and saw a woman in a white skirt bouncing out of the temple.

"Miss!"

A maid hurriedly followed behind with her skirt in her hands.

"Xiao Yingzi, pinch me, I am not dreaming."

Lin Yi stared at the back of the woman who was drifting away, and was stunned.

Hong Ying shrank his hands and feet, and did not dare to pinch him after all.

Lin Yi asked, "Old Taoist priest, tell me, which family's lady is this?"

The old Taoist said, "The concubine of the Yan family, Yan Shiqi."

"Seventeenth in the family?"

"No, no, no,"

The old Taoist shook his head and said, "Because the day she was born was the happy day when the old man of the Yan family married Aunt No. 17, her mother called her Seventeen.

I hope the old man can love this child like he loves the seventeenth aunt. "

"The implication is that it's pretty damn good"

Lin Yi stopped talking nonsense and hurriedly followed Yan Shiqi.
