MTL - A Complete Explanation of the Negative Textbooks of the Imperial Examination-Chapter 65 Missing
The case of the county magistrate Chen has been closed, although there are still many things that have not been clarified, such as why Sun Sizuo lied, who made the cut on the neck of the county magistrate, why did the magistrate Chen Secretly called Feng Butcher to meet, but in the eyes of the common people, this matter has ended successfully.
Three days after the mortuary, the county magistrate Chen was officially buried. Xiao Jingduo wrote a letter to report the matter to the court, so that the court could pay attention to the relatives of the county magistrate Chen, so that the remains of the magistrate Chen could be moved back to their homeland in the future.
The county government removed the white banners, brushed off the dust, and showed a brand new look.
At the same time, another important matter is also on the agenda.
"What should I do about the county magistrate Chen's house?"
Dharma affairs, scattered Yin Qi.
People who are too far away from the sect come to remove the bad luck?"
"What did you say?"
"Remove the bad luck..."
"No, it's the front."
"Invite those who are too far from the church to come..."
"How do you know that you are too out of touch?" Xiao Jingduo was also surprised.
"Who doesn't know this, there is a Taoist immortal in Jinjiang County, not only soaring to Taoism, but also swallowing clouds and driving the fog." Qiu Ju soon got acquainted with the ladies inside and outside the county government. At this moment, talking about these rumors in the neighborhood, he said, "I haven't seen immortals before. I heard from others that immortals from Tailijiao came from the fog and drove away. If they are here, even the harvest will be three points better than previous years!"
"I really dare to say..." Jiannan's fog is caused by the terrain. It has been like this for hundreds of years. They dare to put themselves on their heads. Xiao Jingduo doesn't know how to say they are bold. , or should I say they are arrogant and ignorant.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jingduo remembered the disappearance of women without cause and effect.
When going out, Xiao Jingduo specially instructed Xiao Lin: "These days, if Qiu Ju and the others want to go out, you must follow."
Xiao Lin didn't understand why Xiao Jingduo had to instruct him, but he still bowed and said, "Yes."
Today, I am handling official business in the East Court as usual. The chief clerk handed over the taxation of Jinjiang County over the years to Xiao Jingduo. It’s not good that the house has been empty all the time, when can we invite the immortal master to do a ritual…”
"You mean too out of touch?"
"Exactly."
Xiao Jingduo put down the tax pamphlet, turned his head and asked, "What is the matter with Taili Sect?"
"It's a long story, a fairy teacher appeared in the county a few years ago, and this is the rise of Tailijiao. It is said that the founder of Tailijiao is already half a fairy, not only can he fly through the clouds , and even more immortal. Many people in the county enshrine this immortal master. Many squires are well-connected. From time to time, they can see the immortal teacher and be enlightened by the immortal teacher. No matter how lucky you are, you can still get the immortal teacher personally. Give medicine!" The main book's words were not without yearning.
"Immortal?" Xiao Jingduo has been staying in Chang'an for all these years, and when he heard this, he instinctively became vigilant. Immortality is the obsession of Emperor Qin and Han Wudu that cannot be shaken off. If they are allowed to develop...
Xiao Jingduo didn't want to think about it anymore. In his opinion, birth, old age, sickness and death are a natural cycle, just as leaves grow and leaves fall, no one can break free, not to mention Xiao Jingduo is still a half-bred, so he does not believe that people who are too out of religion can live forever. On the contrary, it is another one, people who are too far from the religion can fly through the clouds, which is worth pondering.
Xiao Jingduo also became curious and asked the master: "You said that people who are too far away from the sect can fly through the clouds, can anyone see it with their own eyes?"
"Of course!" The master was excited, "Two years ago, I was fortunate enough to see the immortal master cast spells with my own eyes. It was a cloudy day. On the water, he preached to us from a distance. At that time, the county magistrate was also present. The magistrate did not believe it like the county magistrate Xiao, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he was immediately convinced by these immortal methods. , If the county magistrate Chen hadn't been abandoned by the immortal master, how could he have ended up in this situation? Now that the county magistrate is dead, it would be a complete success for the immortal master to do a ritual for him."
"Chen county magistrate was very close to Taili sect?"
"Yes, the magistrate has also been enlightened by the immortal teacher, and he respects the immortal teacher quite a bit."
Xiao Jingduo found it interesting: "Then why did they fall out?"
"What is a fallout? It's clearly because the county magistrate Chen has no immortal fate, so he was put down by the immortal master." The master stubbornly corrected, "Being able to be enlightened by the immortal master must be something What a great opportunity. The county magistrate Chen took a lot of medicinal pills, but unfortunately he didn't reinvent himself like the immortal master and became an immortal body, so it's no wonder he was abandoned by the immortal master."
Xiao Jingduo laughed when he heard it: "If I guess right, Miss Chen disappeared not long after the county magistrate and Tailijiao parted ways, right?"
"That's true."
"When you say this, I think it's too far from the religion." Xiao Jingduo said, "I want to see the person who is too far from the religion cast spells with my own eyes, I don't know if it's feasible?"
Newly arrived Xiaoxian Cheng admires Taili Jiao and wants to see the methods of Xianjia with his own eyes. The people from the Taili Sect were quite arrogant, and the people from the county government invited them three times and five times, and they finally agreed. As if he had endured so much trouble, a boy in a blue robe said impatiently to the messenger: "Five days later, by the lake of miracles, the Immortal Master will descend to earth to preach, and you must bathe and burn incense. Go and greet."
The Miracle Lake was the place where the founder of Taili Sect gained Taoism and ascended.
Five days later, Xiao Jingduo stood by the lake with the people of the county government, surrounded by many people who came to admire the miracle. This position was pointed out to the boys by Tailijiao with their nostrils raised, saying that standing here, they saw the most obvious miracles, and the most immortal energy.
Xiao Jingduo endured the noise around him and stood by the lake for a long time, but there was no miracle on the lake. At this point, he had been waiting for about half an hour, but the others were not impatient at all, and Xiao Jingduo was also patient, but he wanted to see what tricks these people were playing.
Without warning, the crowd suddenly became restless. Many people raised their fingers and pointed to one place, and shouted excitedly: "Look, the Immortal Master has come out!"
In the misty waters, a man in a wide white robe walked slowly from the center of the lake. He walked slowly, as if walking on the ground on the water, and what was even more incredible was that his feet were soaring. White fog, like a real cloud.
"Look, the clouds are rising, and there is no trace of water, this is the real method of the fairy family!" The master next to him couldn't help shouting.
Before everyone was excited, there was a sudden noise on the water, and there was a faint red light in the clouds. The boy in the robe quickly ran over to evacuate the crowd: "Come on, the magic power of the immortal master has been upgraded. This time, lightning has been summoned, and the mortal mortal will die here if he does not leave!"
Xiao Jingduo also walked out with the flow of people. When he left the lake, he turned his head and stared at the center of the lake.
After returning to the county office, everyone was still happily discussing the matter just now, and someone said enviously: "The magic power of the immortal teacher has increased again, this time I don't know who is lucky to serve the immortal. division."
Xiao Jingduo was silent all the way. After hearing this, his brows moved, and he turned sideways and asked, "Serve?"
"Yes, Tailijiao selects young and young girls with spiritual roots from the folk from time to time, and follows the immortal master to learn immortal methods. , it is indeed a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes!"
"Can I go home after being selected?"
"Being chosen by the immortal master is an incomparable blessing. Naturally, you have to cut off the six ties and follow the immortal master to ask the immortals to ask, and then you can still be nostalgic for the mortal world!"
"What if you don't want to go?"
& nbsp; Someone refused?"
Seeing that Xiao Jingduo seemed to be thinking about something on his mind, the head clerk came up and asked, "Xiao County Chancellor, how do you feel today when you saw the immortal master cast spells?"
"It's not far from what I expected." Xiao Jingduo said with a smile.
After hearing this, the master clapped his hands and smiled and said, "That's right! It's a pity that the immortal master has to adjust his health in the past few days. The county magistrate cast a spell of immortality, so as to save the undead."
Xiao Jingduo shook his head amusingly in his heart. If he saves the undead, why should he choose the near and far? He lived in Qingyuan Temple for three years and studied with Master Mingjue. What's more, asking Tai Li to teach is not just to save the dead?
"If we ask Taili to teach the magic, do we need to add some money?"
"That's natural, how can I neglect the Immortal Master!"
Sure enough, there is no shortage of money, status, and manpower. What's more serious is that it has penetrated very widely in the government. Not to mention the literati who are other local people, even the chief clerk, the court-appointed official, He also believes in Taili religion very much.
The light in Xiao Jingduo's eyes gradually dimmed.
Feng Butcher closed the stall early today and planned to find some to go back to accompany his sister. He pushed open the courtyard door carelessly, and shouted in a bright voice: "Jiao Niang, brother is back!"
Usually at this time, once he heard his voice, no matter what his sister was doing, she would always respond loudly. Although Feng Jiao always disliked Feng Tuhu's loud voice, she always greeted her at the first time every day, but today, Feng Tuhu did not wait for Feng Jiao's response.
Feng Butcher groaned in his heart, and hurriedly ran into the house. He crossed the yard in a hurry, his hands were cold, but when he saw the people in the main hall, he stopped abruptly.
"How are you?"
"Brother, what are you talking about!" Feng Jiao glared at Butcher Feng secretly.
Feng Butcher really felt wronged this time: "You shouldn't make a sound when I come back!"
"You are so loud, how can I respond to you?" Seeing Feng Butcher yelling at herself, Feng Jiao immediately raised her voice and shouted back.
Feng Butcher's bear-like figure was yelled at by his petite little sister, and he actually lowered his voice: "Didn't I think you weren't there!"
Feng Jiao gave her brother another glance, and then turned to Xiao Jingduo: "Don't take offense to Xiao Xiancheng, my brother has this kind of temperament."
Feng Butcher then noticed that Xiao Jingduo was always there, so he said a little embarrassedly: "Xiao Xiancheng, why are you here?"
Xiao Jingduo listened silently by the side when the brothers and sisters were bickering, and now he smiled and made a gesture: "You brothers and sisters are free, don't worry about me."
Feng Jiao glared at her brother angrily, and said, "I have nothing to say to him, and I just made Xiao Xiancheng laugh."
"Where, you two brothers and sisters have a good relationship, which is a good thing." Xiao Jingduo replied, and then turned to the topic, "I took the liberty to come here today, and I want to know some questions from Feng Xiang, but I don't know. Is it convenient now?"
"Convenient, what's the inconvenience." Feng Xiang stretched his arms and motioned Xiao Jingduo to sit up. Xiao Jingduo rejected Feng Xiang's intention and insisted on sitting in the guest seat.
After Feng Jiao went out, Xiao Jingduo and Feng Butcher talked about the purpose of the trip.
"Xiao Xiancheng, why are you here today? If I had known you were coming, I would not have set up the stall this afternoon."
"I'm taking the liberty." Xiao Jingduo also decided to come to Feng Butcher to find out the situation. When he arrived, Feng Butcher was only Feng Jiao at home, and he was sitting with Feng Jiao in the main hall talking. After a loud roar, he ran in in a panic. Xiao Jingduo felt very curious: "Why are you in such a hurry just now?"
"Alas, this is a long story." Feng Butcher sighed in a rare despondency, "When the summer began this year, the Immortal Master Taili came to select disciples, and my sister was selected. My parents left such a daughter. Jiaojiao is my only blood relative in this world. Once I follow the immortal master, I will never come back. She went to too far away to teach."
“There are so many followers of Taili Sect, do they allow you to deceive people like this?”
"Alas, the Immortal Master naturally won't allow it. Fortunately, our Feng family has a good reputation. I have saved some money over the years.
"That's why you were so anxious when you saw Lingmei should not make a sound, that is to say, the people who are too far from the religion did not let you go?"
Feng Butcher sighed again, it was about immortal masters and divine religion, he should keep his mouth shut and not say a word, but Xiao Jingduo responded very quickly, but a few words did not need Feng Butcher to say, Xiao Jingduo reacted by himself.
"Xiao Xiancheng, you can just listen to these things, I know what you want to do, but immortal masters have immortal techniques, and we are mortals, how can we fight against immortal techniques? Jiaojiao It's just as bad luck for our Feng family, but with my elder brother here, I won't let anyone bully her, and you have a good future, Xiao Xiancheng, so there's really no need to get involved in these matters of our Feng family."
Seeing that Butcher Feng was no longer secretive, and finally told the truth, Xiao Jingduo's face also became serious: "Tai Li Jiao claims to be a descendant of Xianjia, but if this is the case, you would not rather People who offend half of the county are reluctant to let their sister leave. If I guess correctly, I am afraid that Miss Chen, the daughter of the county magistrate, is also on the shortlist?"
Xiao Jingduo suddenly raised his voice and stared at Butcher Feng with fiery eyes: "Now, are you still unwilling to tell the truth behind the selection of immortals?"
