Chapter 20 Game!

What's more, collecting 'good fruits' is a spiritual game.

If you deliver it to your doorstep in a hurry, it is not certain whether you will be grateful, let alone whether you will be able to collect 'good things'.

Human beings have been like this since ancient times. They are afraid of power but not moral. It is difficult to conceive the most sincere and pure thoughts until the most desperate moment, and that is the 'good fruit' that Deng Yang needs.

"Taoist Master, the old man is causing trouble."

Looking at Deng Yang in front of him, Old Man Liu looked hesitant at this time.

Compared to yesterday's casualness, Old Man Liu was undoubtedly more polite today.

"I wonder if the layman is waiting in front of Pindao's door early in the morning, but what's the matter?"

Facing Old Man Liu, whose eyes were bloodshot and obviously had not slept all night, Deng Yang still looked kind.

"This"

"The Taoist priest saved the child's life. The old man shouldn't be greedy, but last night the neighbors came to ask for help. Those younger generations were all grown up by the old man and are from the same clan. The old man really couldn't bear to refuse."

"I hope the Taoist Master will be merciful and be able to save these babies."

After a slight hesitation, Old Man Liu immediately gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground with a look of pleading on his face.

"So, you have already revealed the fact that poor Taoists can remove bad qi?"

Looking at Old Man Liu with a slight shame in his eyes and a pleading expression on his face, Deng Yang subconsciously narrowed his eyes and could not help but feel a hint of coldness in his tone.

It's not that Deng Yang is deliberately putting on airs to embarrass Old Man Liu, but he knows very well that the easier it is to get things, the less they are cherished. Even if you dare to give one today, he will dare to ask for a hundred tomorrow. This is naked. human nature.

"Forgive me, Taoist Priest!"

"It is true that when the old man went to my brother's house to ask for the black dog's blood last night, he accidentally let it slip."

Seeing the coldness in Deng Yang's eyes, a look of panic suddenly appeared on Old Man Liu's face, and the shame in his eyes couldn't help but become a little more serious.

"Forget it. Maybe it's God's will!"

"Pindao is a foreigner by nature, and it is his duty to save lives and heal the wounded. However, Pindao is very old, so getting rid of the bad qi is a great loss of vitality. Last night, he was wasting his life to remove the bad qi."

With a slight sigh, Deng Yang helped Old Man Liu up from the ground, his eyes full of embarrassment.

"This"

"It's all my fault that the old man accidentally let the matter slip, which actually caused the Taoist priest to be implicated."

"This matter was caused by the old man. It is up to the old man to go and explain to the villagers. He must not damage the Taoist priest's reputation."

Seeing Deng Yang's old and miserable appearance, Old Man Liu didn't doubt this argument, and the guilt on his face couldn't help but become a little heavier.

"It doesn't have to be like this. The layman did it unintentionally. It must be God's will."

"I have been practicing cultivation all my life. I have lived for 140 and nine years now. I am far ahead of ordinary people. If I can save a few more people with my old body, I will not regret this life."

"In this case, we have to trouble the lay people to go to the village and bring all the younger generations who have been affected by the filthy odor. I should do my best to treat them."

Looking at Old Man Liu's guilt-ridden look, Deng Yang gave some comfort, then his face suddenly showed a look of mercy that was willing to sacrifice generously.

"The Taoist priest is very righteous, but this method is absolutely impossible."

"We are just ordinary people in the mountains and our lives are as cheap as ants. How dare we let the Taoist Priest waste our lives for us?"

As soon as Deng Yang finished speaking, a look of determination suddenly flashed in Old Man Liu's eyes, and he flatly refused.

Looking at the determination in Old Man Liu's eyes, Deng Yang nodded with satisfaction in his heart. This is the effect he wants. If he can't make you shed tears of gratitude, wouldn't all this hard work be in vain?

"Brother Liu, are you at home?"

Just as Old Man Liu was thinking hard about how to explain to the villagers, an urgent call came from far outside the fence of the small courtyard.

"Here" "please ask the Taoist priest to go into the room to avoid them for now, and the old man will send them away now."

Looking at the figures walking vaguely in this direction in the distance, Old Man Liu hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said to Deng Yang.

"The layman has good intentions, but the poor Taoist understands it. But the matter has come to this, and it must be God's will."

"Being able to accumulate a few more merits before death is a blessing for monks like us!"

Compared to the anxious old man Liu, Deng Yang looked calm at this time.

"Brother Liu, you are at home."

"This must be the leader of the fifth channel."

At this time, as several figures gradually walked in, looking at Old Man Liu and Deng Yang standing in the yard, a tall man with gray hair on his temples was leading, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his face was full of boldness.

"I'm a poor Taoist, but I've seen a layman before!"

Looking at the bold and bold man in front of him, a warm look suddenly appeared on Deng Yang's face.

"Fugen, what are you doing here? I don't remember inviting you to my house today."

Compared to Deng Yang's gentleness, Old Man He had a dark face at this time, and he was holding back the anger in his eyes.

"Brother, what's going on?"

Seeing the eldest brother from the same clan who used to be calm to him suddenly change his face, a trace of astonishment flashed across the face of the bold and strong man.

"Hmph~ The Taoist priest is temporarily staying at my house. Wouldn't it be rude for you to barge in like this?"

After hesitating for a long time, Old Man Liu still didn't know where to start with some words, so he could only find an excuse at random and scolded him pretending to be angry.

"Forgive me, Taoist Priest!"

"Brother, please forgive me, I'm not worried about your nephew Gensheng."

Faced with Old Man Liu's scolding, the bold man was not upset, he still had a flattering smile on his face and apologized in a low voice.

"In this Liujia Village, my nephew is not the only one who has been eroded by the filth. If everyone is like you, who can bear the responsibility if he collides with the Taoist Priest."

"It's my younger brother who was abrupt."

"I hope the Taoist priest won't be offended."

Looking at his eldest brother who was from the same clan, he couldn't help but have a flash of suspicion in his eyes.

The bold man thought he understood his eldest brother from the same clan. He had always been a good-natured person and was famously warm-hearted in the village.

But today, such a change from the norm is obviously very abnormal.

However, a bold man is also a clever man. Although he is full of grievances and doubts, he does not show it at all on the surface.

"It doesn't matter, the layman is also eager to save his son, which is understandable."

Facing the bold man with aggrieved expression and Old Man He with angry expression, Deng Yang still had the same unhurried look, as if he didn't see the interaction between their eyes at all.

"I wonder how many people in the village have been affected by the foul smell?"

After pondering for a while, looking at the gradually tense atmosphere between the two, Deng Yang spoke up at the right time and asked.

"There were a total of eight people who went into the mountain that time. Apart from my nephew, including the dog, there were seven people in total."

Seeing Deng Yang speak, Old Man Liu didn't know what to say, but the bold man took over the conversation without hesitation and replied.
