Old Taoist Xuanqing seemed to be caught up in some beautiful memories.

"Back then, my master was considered a majestic figure. It was he who said that although I was not very talented, I was very lucky and could carry on with my True Essence Concept in troubled times."

"But my master was really cheating. As soon as he died, the world was in chaos. At that time, we couldn't even eat. We dug tree roots to boil water to keep going. People down the mountain started to feed their children. Later, there was no other way. I took my brothers and sisters to work as soldiers, and I only managed to survive by wandering here and there, but it's a pity..."

Xuan Qing did not elaborate on what happened here, but it was enough to make Meng Tan speechless. He never thought that such an old man who was such a good actor could have such a wonderful past...

These things finally turned into a sigh, and Master Xuanqing wiped away a few tears, "It's not easy for me."

This is really sincere, Meng Tan sighed. In her previous life, she thought it was miserable enough that she was abandoned by her parents when she was a child, bullied, and grew up without any support.

She didn't expect this old man to be in a worse situation than her. In the war-torn times, she was extremely lucky to be able to survive with some of her classmates.

Well, I suddenly feel that I am not so miserable.

Meng Tan patted Master Xuanqing, and Master Xuanqing chuckled, "But now that there is a Supreme Immortal, Supreme Immortal, you can choose these names first?"

Meng Tan looked over and immediately fell on Taoist Pojin. He was surrounded by thunder characters. These four characters were like cranes in a flock of chickens, making him look like a fairy.

Pointing to the four words "Pojin Taoist", Xuanqing Lao Taoist smiled very happily, looking at Meng Tan as if he were looking at a treasure, "I said, the Patriarch must be in love with the immortal. In the dream, the Patriarch also felt that the two Pojin A good word."

Meng Tan bared her teeth and was very happy, and she also felt good about it.

This can be regarded as a milestone for her to embark on another journey.

Regardless of whether he is trying to make people happy or not, people cannot live too clearly.

"Now that the Immortal has been chosen, I will go back to the Taoist Temple to carve a sign for you."

Meng Tan shook his head, indicating that he still had something to do, and reached out to pat Chen Changyun's arm.

[Sanlang, let him come here in two days, or let the little Taoist priest below come. I want a copper coin from the master Guanli. ]

"Old Taoist Priest, my mother wants a piece of incense money from your ancestor in Guanli. You don't have to run away by yourself all the time. I think you are getting older, so just send a young Taoist priest to come."

"to make."

Doing what he was told meant that he was treated as one of his own.

There is hope that Zhenyuan Guan will return to glory.

Old Taoist Xuanqing was so happy that he almost couldn't find the north. When he went out, he tripped over the threshold.

"Mom, what's the copper coin under the seat? What are you doing here?" Chen Changyun asked without understanding.

[The copper coins placed under the Patriarch's throne are offered as filial piety to the Patriarch every year. They are used the next year. They are also called blessing copper coins. They are a good thing to ward off evil spirits during the New Year. ]

[I have been delayed in Changhe Town for half a month. I still remember that I promised your third uncle to attend her great-grandson’s full-moon banquet. It’s almost time. ]

At this point, Meng Tan remembered the pigs and chickens raised at home.

[By the way, you are all here. Who will feed the chickens and pigs at home? ]

Speaking of this, Chen Changyun was very embarrassed, "It was the third uncle's family who helped arrange it. The second sister-in-law said that when people from the yamen said something bad about you, she was frightened to death. She lost her backbone. It was the third uncle's wife." The one who took care of everything even had someone hitch a bullock cart to bring up the second sister-in-law and Bao Zhuiyue. Speaking of which, we haven’t thanked the third uncle and his family yet.”

[Then you can take some time tomorrow to go back and take a look, and bring some gifts to send to your third uncle's house. This would be a great favor. ]

"Hey, I'll go today. I just need to take a leave."

With that said, Chen Changyun ran out the door.

Only Tian Yunxiang, two sisters and Sun Baniang were watching the fun and had not left in the room. "Oh, look at me, there is still something going on at home, eldest sister, I will go back first."

Sun Baniang coughed, said politely and left.

Meng Tan sighed and looked quietly at Sun Baniang's leaving figure.

"Mom, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Seeing her like this, Tian Yunxiang asked worriedly.

Meng Tan sighed again. She still hadn't heard the gossip in Widow's Lane today. Her heart felt like being scratched and not scratching it.

She wanted to listen, but her body didn't allow it and she was still a little weak. It was the time of recovery and she would get tired easily.

But seeing so much excitement today is enough.

Meng Tan waved his hand towards Tian Yunxiang and went to sleep.

The next day.

In the early morning, someone came to Zhenyuan Temple. It was the young apprentice who had his scalp pulled out in the fight that day. His name was Liuyuan. He had a flattering smile on his face from the same style as Taoist Xuanqing. "I met Taoist Pojin. The master said, you want to There must be something important about this copper coin, so I was asked to deliver it early this morning."

As he spoke, he opened the red lacquered wooden box in his hand. There were three copper coins lying inside, glowing with a faint purple light.

Meng Tan was pleasantly surprised. It seemed that there were real gods in this Zhenyuan Temple. These three copper coins were really blessed, and the blessings were quite deep. It seemed that the worshipers in the temple were all very pious.

Meng Tan accepted it and asked Liuyuan to drink some water in the room before leaving. The smile on the young man's face became less flattering and more sincere.

Before leaving, he said a few good words for his master, "My master went to do what you asked him to do, so he didn't deliver it in person. The master is currently gilding the ancestor, and he still has some left in his hand, and he has been thinking about it." We will support the charity in the town for two days."

Shantang?

Isn't this an ancient welfare home?

According to what Xuanqing Lao Taoist said, everyone in the temple is extremely poor. Do you still have spare money to raise orphans?

The doubt in Meng Tan's eyes was too much. Liuyuan explained, with a little gratitude in his eyes, "The charity hall is opened by the master. If it weren't for the charity hall to be donated every year, just relying on the master's ability, he would watch the incense in it every year." There’s always some left over.”

"I was picked up by the master from the pile of dead people. He said that when he picked me up, he was almost eaten by a mouse. At that time, we were fighting with the remnants of the previous dynasty. The master took in many children, and the current senior brothers also Most of them were picked up by the master, and the senior brothers and uncles who were at the forefront were killed to protect us... Later, when the world settled down, the master opened a charity hall."

Liuyuan wiped his tears, and there was some sincerity in his eyes, "Taoist Pojin, don't look at Master, but he is really a good person, a kind person. In order to save people, there is no chance to repair the temple. He Every day I say I'm sorry to the Patriarch, I'm sorry to the Patriarch, he's getting old, maybe he thinks that the Taoist temple cannot be left alone, so he keeps pestering you, please be more considerate."

Meng Tan's eyes turned red and her heart felt sad. She was also picked up by the old magic stick.

She doesn't care about this.

He nodded and sent away the six yuan. Before the door was closed, he saw two people coming from a distance.

One is Chen Changyun, and the other...is Uncle Chen San, with a basket in her hand.
