Chapter 47
oh oh oh... oh oh oh--

The rooster crows loudly.

The warm morning sun pushed the green color into the window lattice, and the gentle breeze blew on the face of the crouching figure. Chen Yuan woke up by shaking her eyelashes.

The room was quiet, and the master went somewhere, and even the fat Taoist disappeared.In the flying light and dust, the four wood carvings of door gods stood motionless on the table on their respective mounts, probably because the magic power of the attunement technique was exhausted.

That's fine, the four heroes all have their own tempers, if they really want to stay together in the caravan, there might be some troubles, it's good to let them out occasionally to get some air.

Chen Yuan yawned, and looked at the plethora of combination formulas written last night. With a shake of her hand, the flames ignited and burned to ashes, and she took a breath, and the ashes swirled along the breeze. went out the window.

After a night of verification, rearranging and combining is feasible, but there are some places that are obscure, and the formulas cannot be recited at all, or if they are recited, the rest will be messed up.

It still needs to be considered in the middle, and a better connection should be made. Maybe he can really get it out.

"Master!"

"Apprentice!"

Outside the window lattice, Sun Zhengde held up the hem of his robe and ran back to the courtyard with the crazy old man through the crescent door. Chen Yuan heard the sound and came out of the room. The fat Taoist pressed his knees and pointed out panting.

"In the city...a lot of people gathered...and people from the yamen...they chose a site in the city this morning...to build a temple for you."

The master on the side brushed his hair back in a serious manner, and nodded.

"That's not bad."

In fact, he didn't even know what it meant to build a temple. He probably only wanted to look like a master in front of his disciples.

"Build me a temple?"

He is not a true Taoist disciple, how can he build a temple for him?

Chen Yuan's eyes fell on the fat Taoist's face, and the latter turned his face away, "What do I do? What if they see that I am a Taoist next to you, and think you are too?"

"An explanation is a cover-up, and a cover-up is the truth."

Chen Yuan pointed at him, and went straight out of the room. It's not that others regard him as a Taoist, but that no one builds a temple for a living person!

All the way out of the Crescent Gate, the maids, servants, soldiers, and guards in the mansion saluted him one after another. On the street outside, people in twos and threes gathered together, and when they saw Chen Yuan coming out, they cast doubtful glances.

There are whispers speaking.

"Is it this person?"

"It's too young, not all tall people have white beards and beards, no matter how bad they are, they look like middle-aged Confucian scholars..."

"...Maybe back to basics?"

Chen Yuan heard the babbling words of the market, and probably understood why she was so weird today. It turned out that Xu Huaiyu told the county magistrate about the painting again last night, and made the painting overnight and pasted it in the yamen.After the evil people stole the children, people with children heard the news and went to the painters to buy ready-made New Year pictures.

Early this morning, Xu Huaiyu deliberately negotiated with the county magistrate to build a temple on an unused land in the east of the city, whether it was because of the Waliang Mountain incident.

As soon as the construction started, rumors spread all over the small county, which was not big at all, and the rumors of the master became more and more mysterious. The site selection and ground breaking attracted many people in the city early on.

Chen Yuan followed Sun Zhengde and Master to this place, and there were already many people watching. A clerk in the government office read out a notice, several craftsmen who measured measurements were marking the ground, and carpenters and masons were also building woodwork nearby Preparation of beams, bricks and tiles.

"It's really covered."

Chen Yuan retreated to a place where there were few people, put a blindfold on herself, and then waved her sleeves towards the crowd, blowing a gust of wind, filling the air with dust, making people blindfolded, he squeezed into the crowd, and walked to Jiang Zuo I glanced at the drawing.

The measured land is not big, square and square, about six feet on all sides, which is a little bigger than ordinary earth temples.

In another picture of the internal structure, there are five altars, two on each side. It is impossible to tell who it is, but his name is clearly written in the center, and even the door plaque on the temple is also drawn. I wrote the size and size, but I wrote Lingxian Temple.

Chen Yuan was a little dumbfounded.

"Xu Huaiyu is capable of dealing with this person, but he didn't expect to dare to do it. He even thought of a name."

Looking at the bustling crowd, Chen Yuan withdrew from the inside to remove the spell, and looked at the busy craftsmen, feeling a little embarrassed.

Establishing a temple would really challenge the gods here.But the good thing is that the incense will continue in the future, and the four door gods in the temple will become stronger and stronger.

'Just hope you don't look at me for a while.Well, make my clay sculpture look better. '

Thinking in this way, Chen Yuan returned to the mansion and continued to carve woodcarvings according to yesterday's thoughts. Anyway, there are quite a lot of outstanding people, so he could carve out as many as he could think of and familiar ones, so they would always be useful in the future.

In the following time, I devoted myself to retreat and stayed in other courtyards, sculpting the heroes who had impressions in my mind, painted them with paint, wore purple gold crowns with three-pronged hair, gowned with hundreds of flowers in Xishu, rode horses and swung painted halberds; Bronze armor, a figure with double pupils revealing sadness...

They are all neatly placed in the house to enjoy the incense with the four gods in the shrine.

The fat Taoist looked at the smoke and smoke curling around the dome, he couldn't stay any longer, so he simply spread a summer mat under the eaves, and went to accompany the old cow when it was cold.

When she was free, Chen Yuan would also go to the Lingxian Temple to see the progress. The clay sculptures erected were painted with colors, but they were seven or eight points similar, which finally made him feel at ease.

At night, while continuing to arrange the three spells, I will also write down the stories of new heroes, compile them into operas and organize them into a set.

During the day, I took a log to carve a bird, wrote the address of the theater troupe in Funiu Town and burned it in front of it, touched it with my fingertips, and the wood-carved eagle suddenly let out a mournful cry, grabbed the compiled book and soared into the sky, flapping its wings. Flying to the direction known in the mind, many maids and servants in the mansion stopped to look at the sky.

"Did you see it just now?"

"I saw it, I saw it, it flew out of Mr.'s other courtyard."

"What are you looking at here?"

The last sound was Xu Huaiyu's words. He was coming back from the outside, and he had told the steward not to stop here unless he summoned him, so as not to disturb his practice. Now he saw a few servant girls standing and watching, let His tone was a little harsh.

After the people were driven away, his serious expression suddenly disappeared, and he walked into the Crescent Gate, just in time to see Chen Yuan flipping through the old book under the shade of a tree, and arched his hands respectfully.

"Wai met Mr."

The shade of the tree was swaying, Chen Yuan put down her book and stood up with a smile to return the salute, asking him to come and sit down and talk, she waved her hand, and the cups flew out of the tea set, took the herbal tea poured out of the teapot, and landed gently on the In front of the man.

"Mr. Xie, watch tea."

In the past few days, this man has become numb to these fancy spells, took a sip of tea, and talked about the business of today.

"The Mr. Chang Weng who you want to investigate already has a clue, and it's in a small town twenty miles north of Tongshan County."

Seeing Chen Yuan's doubts, he hurriedly said: "I don't know, Mr. Chang. This family with the surname Chang was originally considered to be quite wealthy. A few years after Chang Weng left home, his family's fortunes fell, so he sold the property and moved with his family. I went to live in the town. Now there are seven people in the family.”

There will be no more detailed information, after all, it is just to inquire about information, and it is impossible to do everything in detail like in the military.

It is enough to have these news, Chen Yuan nodded and thanked him, and then he should go to the Chang Weng's house to see, and give back the fate of the Dharma.

At this time, the steward of the mansion hurried to the Crescent Gate.

"Master, the state government has an order to come over."

Xu Huaiyu frowned, got up and apologized to Chen Yuan, "Wait a moment, sir." Then he walked to the steward at the door and walked not far outside.

Chen Yuan here has sharp ears and eyes, and it's hard to hear it or not. If she wanted to avoid it, the voices of the two came over.

"The county government asked the master's family to go over."

"What did you reveal?"

"...The county lord said...to transfer the master's family to Qingzhou."

After saying such words, Xu Huaiyu came back again, and cupped his hands regretfully: "Sir, it seems that Xu has gone to the county government first."

"Nothing, everyone is busy first."

Seeing that he was in a hurry, Chen Yuan would not want to keep him. In the manager's words just now, if he was transferred to Qingzhou, he was already in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Could it be that he was going to fight?

It's a pity that I have things to do myself, and such things can't help much.

Call Sun Zhengde and ask him to pack up and go to Tongshan County tomorrow.

When night fell, Xu Huaiyu came back from the county office with an ugly expression on his face. He went to the backyard first, and then came to Chen Yuan's place. When he saw the cart pushed into the courtyard, he probably understood what was going on.

"I'm afraid Huai Yu can't see Mr. off."

He sat on the table and chairs under the tree, waited for the steward to bring drinks, and poured a glass for Chen Yuan: "Mr. today may have heard that Mr. Xu is about to leave too. He will be transferred to Gyeongju, and he will leave in the morning."

"So urgent?" Chen Yuan was also a little surprised.

Xu Huaiyu raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, nodded: "...Alas, there is going to be a war, the Hus are about to hit the Yellow River, and the emperor was killed by his brother again, King Qing summoned all the soldiers under his command Ma is going to the capital of Luozhou...it is said to resist the barbarians, but I can see that this is to fight for the throne..."

"I don't want to fight with my compatriots... If I fight with a barbarian, Xu will not hesitate to die."

"Have you already told Mrs. Ni and your children?"

"I've already said it." Xu Huaiyu took a deep breath, and suddenly laughed again: "The man has already promised the country, and it's hard to make another family. If you don't drive out the barbarians, Xu will come back without face!"

Chen Yuan silently raised her hands and clasped her fists. For a moment, he asked Xu Huaiyu to wait a while, got up and walked into the room, and brought out a Buddha with a strange posture.

"It may not be possible to protect you in the army, but the dark place can keep you safe."

I heard from a Taoist before that there are priests who know magic in the barbarian army, and this Buddha may be able to protect him.

Seeing the Buddha holding a strange magic weapon, and smelling the scent of incense on it, Xu Huaiyu didn't dare to be disrespectful, and hurried forward to take the Buddha in his hands respectfully.

"Huai Yu Mr. Xie gave a gift."

"I should also Xie Duhou, let me see a man of blood and heroism!"

The two looked at each other, and then they both laughed. The laughter filled the night, time gradually passed, the sky was blue and white, and in front of the gate of Xu's mansion, Xu Huaiyu was wearing armor and dragging a suit. Cloak said goodbye to the crying wife and children, and also saw the ox cart parked in front, and Chen Yuan standing beside the cart.

He raised his hands and clenched his fists heavily, without any extra words.

"The sky is long and the road is long, sir, take care!"

Chen Yuan arched her hands: "Everyone, take care!"

Over there, Xu Huaiyu nodded with a smile, got on his horse, glanced at his wife and children in front of the house, waved his whip, and shouted "Drive!", and galloped away with a group of soldiers on horseback go.

The sound of rumbling horseshoes gradually disappeared from the street.

Chen Yuan also cupped her hands towards Mrs. Xu who was watching from the front of the mansion, turned around and got into the ox cart, and the old ox slowly drove away with the cart.With red eyes, Mrs. Xu lowered her body and bowed. When she looked again, the street was empty, and there was no sign of the ox cart.

'Wang Gaoren, can bless my husband to return safely. '

she murmured softly.

 The second update arrived today.
