The small incense burner was startled, then spit out a mouthful of incense ashes, and was about to retaliate, but then he remembered what he had felt before, and had to remain silent.
Mr. Letter smiled and said: "There is clearly a mountain of gold in front of him, and he has been told that he can use it as he pleases, but he has never taken one or two for personal use. Is such a person rare?"
Xiao Xian Lu nodded matter-of-factly and said: "It's like hanging a fish in front of a cat and telling the cat to just eat it. It's no big deal, but the cat still won't eat. This is very difficult.
.”
Mr. Letter said with a smile: "One more thing, that is, he is only thirty this year. It is not easy for him to be like this at such an age." ??
The little incense burner frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "You didn't even tell me such a thing."
Mr. Letter smiled and said nothing, but returned his gaze to the piece of heavenly money in his palm.
The little incense burner thought for a moment and said, "If I grit my teeth, I'll have no problem eating his luck."
"No need." Mr. Letter shook his head and rejected the proposal of the small incense burner.
The little incense burner frowned and said in confusion: "Then you make up your mind to do a no-cost business. You know, there is no reward. No matter how much you pay, it is a loss-making business. It's just a matter of how much."
It was a little anxious for the Mr. Letter in front of him. You must know that ever since he decided to take such a path, it has not changed for hundreds of years, and he has not broken the rules once. This time, it seems to be dispensable.
But it understands that no one can say what the consequences will be if this hole is opened.
The consequences are okay, but the most frightening thing is that it may shake his mind and make him unable to focus on anything else.
Mr. Xixin naturally knew what Xiaoxiang Lu was worried about, but he just said with some nostalgia: "When I came out of that place, I thought it was not very interesting to cultivate to the Taoist master, but mainly I still felt that if I continued to practice like this, I would not be able to do anything for the rest of my life.
Let’s stop here. It’s quite glorious to be a Taoist master, but that’s all.”
"So after reading some Taiping Tao teachings, I wanted to see what the other lineage besides these two means. Of course, at that time, everyone would think I was crazy, and of course they would treat me
Why did I do this? I didn’t care at all, I just felt panic. If I did this, wouldn’t the Tao of Immortality be disgraced? So at that time, countless people stood up to either persuade me earnestly or directly threaten me. There are some things that outsiders don’t understand.
I know, but I have never heard of it. The master of the Chixin Temple at that time told me categorically that if I really wanted to act in such a rebellious and unethical way, he would kill me with his own hands."
When Xiao Xian Lu heard these old things, he was a little angry and said: "This matter has nothing to do with them in the first place."
Mr. Xixin shook his head and said with a smile: "If he kills me, the Tao of Immortality will only be more embarrassed. Otherwise, with the arrogant demeanor of those years of crazy watching, how could he say this, just take action, simple and direct."
The small incense burner sighed.
"Later I compromised. I wasn't afraid of people laughing at me when I said it. I was just afraid of death."
Mr. Xixin sighed with emotion: "If we really persist, that guy will fight with me. The master of Chixin Guan Guan is the number one person in the Taoist sect, and can even be said to be the number one person in the world. How can he survive at that time?"
"But they can't do it right. After all, forcing a Taoist master to a dead end is not a good thing no matter how you look at it. That's why I have been studying in this Taoist temple for so many years, and then this happened.
A Danxiao city."
At this point, Mr. Letter paused, his eyes blurred, "It only takes a few words to say, but it is really not easy to do it."
"However, after I read the teachings of the Taiping Dao, I still felt that it was not enough. Compared with the Tao of Immortality, the Taiping Dao only has one more element of non-dispute and is not so persistent, but in essence, there is no difference."
Mr. Letter smiled and said: "That's not what I want."
The little incense burner nodded, and he knew what happened next.
If you don’t want to take the path of Taiping, and you choose not to take the path of immortality, so if you still want to move forward, you can only find a new path.
That's why in the later years, he would explore new ways in Danxiao City, and finally decided on a path, which was to be a letter writer, writing letters for others in exchange for money. As for what he did with the money in exchange? Most of it was thrown into the
Look at the goodness and badness of the person in the incense burner. If there is a small number of people who want something, they will ask for some reward based on what the other person wants.
It's still about money.
The small incense burner eats some of the other party's luck and feeds itself back.
After walking on this path for hundreds of years, he was able to successfully reach Fuyun, but his idea was to go beyond that. He wanted to continue moving forward and set a node for himself.
That is to establish a secret connection with all the people who are still alive in Danxiao City with him. When everything is completely established, then he will eat up the luck of this Danxiao City in one go and let himself
His cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds.
At that time, he was the real Lord of Danxiao City.
In this way, there is actually great uncertainty. The sudden influx of luck can make one's cultivation improve by leaps and bounds, but after that, the two sides will affect each other.
If he keeps moving forward on the road of spiritual practice, then the people here will have more and more luck, and it will be easier for them to produce great people in the imperial examinations and high schools in the future.
This is the benefit that he, the Lord of Danxiao City, brings to the people.
But if he later stops on the road of spiritual practice, develops a lot of confusion, or even develops inner demons, and his realm declines, then the people here will also be greatly affected. Businessmen will find it difficult to do business, and those who fail the imperial examination will lose their reputation...
…
On the people's side, if any major changes happen to them, it will also affect their realm, and they may be dragged to a halt, or even fall backwards.
Tonight on the Woodcutter Festival, I met
A middle-aged woman happened to be the last person.
He only needs to bring the money back, throw it into the incense burner, and then start doing it.
At that time, he was quite excited about realizing his long-cherished wish, so he drank alone by the river, and then met Chen Chao.
Maybe it’s God’s will in the dark?
In fact, at first he was not worried about the trouble Chen Chao would come to find him. Although he was the garrison envoy of Daliang, Danxiao City seemed to be too special. Although it belonged to Daliang in name only, in fact, all the people in the city could see it.
It is a private property of Taoism.
At this juncture, he did not believe that this young man would cause trouble.
Afterwards, the two tested each other by the river, but he didn't see that the other party had such thoughts.
But what I seem to be doing is not something harmful to nature?
Of course, the young man didn't seem to notice it at all.
Taking a deep breath, Mr. Xixin smiled and said: "I said I would gamble once. If you lose to him, you have to be willing to admit defeat."
The little incense burner smacked his lips, "That doesn't mean I don't want anything."
Mr. Letter shook his head and said: "It's not like I don't want anything. He pointed out a way out and let me get a glimpse of it, which is considered as reward."
"You don't have to go by yourself!"
The little incense burner gritted his teeth. He also wanted to persuade the guy in front of him that he had been doing the same thing for so many years and it was about to be completed. Just give up and give up?
Mr. Letter smiled and said: "I think the new road is right. I should be able to reach the other side, if I don't die."
"I think we should think about it carefully and not rush to make a choice at the moment."
The little incense burner looked at Mr. Letter with hope, but it was still afraid that he had made the wrong choice.
Mr. Letter looked at it and smiled: "Even if I change my path, you will still be here."
Xiao Xian Lu frowned and said angrily: "Who would think of such a thing!"
Mr. Letter said: "That's it?"
The little incense burner stopped talking.
The letter stretched out his hand, picked up the small incense burner, and then turned it upside down.
The little incense burner cried sadly, "It feels like you have spent your whole life working hard and saving money, and you are about to marry a wife. But then you say you don't want it, so you don't want it, and you have to pay back the money."
For those people, what on earth are you doing in this life?!"
Mr. Letters smiled and said: "It's like going out to look around, spending money, walking away, and finally coming back. It seems as if you have never been out, but this is not the case. Those scenes are in your mind, and those experiences are in your memories.
, it’s not that you don’t have something in your hand, you can’t prove that you got something.”
As he spoke, he had turned the incense burner upside down. Countless incense ashes had accumulated in it. At this moment, they began to fall continuously. But when the ashes fell out, they began to turn into little golden brilliance and swept towards the surroundings.
, in an instant, there were golden light spots everywhere.
It seems to have enveloped a Taoist temple.
The little incense burner had a sad face. If it hadn't been unable to shed tears like a human being, it would have had a lot of tears and runny nose at this moment.
Those light spots are all the money it has saved over the years!
Mr. Letter watched those light spots continue to fly into the distance, falling all over Danxiao City and thousands of households, and he suddenly felt relieved.
It was as if my heart suddenly became empty, and my whole person seemed to have a particularly empty feeling.
Very strange.
The incense ashes in the small incense burner kept falling off, and this process lasted for a long time. After all, the things accumulated here were not just one or two years, but hundreds of years.
Although the small incense burner is upside down, there is actually no difference in my eyes.
At this time, it also calmed down a lot, and said softly: "In this way, the people of this city will more or less have something good happen to them in a short period of time."
Mr. Letter said: "Just think that we have set up a bank in these years, but they don't know that such a bank exists. Now that we make a windfall, we just think it is God's blessing."
The little incense burner sighed: "You can see clearly."
Without waiting for Mr. Letter to speak, the little incense burner still asked the question it had always wanted to ask, "Actually, you didn't just figure this out today, right?"
"You have been thinking about it for at least a hundred years after just a few words."
Mr. Letter did not refute, "Actually, there are so many people in this world who can be persuaded. When you are sad, if others advise you not to be sad, can you really not be sad? Later, when you are not sad, it is probably because you have figured it out yourself.
of."
The little incense burner sighed. Originally, according to this guy's promise, he would no longer be like this in two or three hundred years. By then, he would be able to transform into a human form and be no different from other people.
But if this happens, will everything have to be done again?
It's melancholy, so melancholy.
Mr. Letter seemed to understand what the idea of the small incense burner in front of him was. He stretched out his hand and dropped the piece of heavenly money into the incense burner, "Although I don't want this kid's reward, if you keep this thing, it will be beneficial to the golden body, which is better than nothing."
"
The little incense burner said with a bitter face: "Now I am guarding a golden mountain and I can only look at it but not use it."
Mr. Letter joked: "It's a good thing you can't use it. Otherwise, if you were asked to guard this golden mountain, you would be able to guard it and steal it the next day."
The little incense burner sneered, not bothering to defend himself.
Mr. Letter didn't say much, he just patted it on the head and said with a smile: "Go and find my robe in the box."
It was originally a very ordinary sentence, but the little incense burner was stunned for a moment. It looked at Mr. Letter in front of it with complicated emotions in its eyes.
But there is definitely excitement.
Mr. Letter smiled casually and said: "I am a Taoist priest."
