Ziyang Temple is the largest, most crowded, most popular, and most down-to-earth Taoist temple in Ye City.
Taoist Ziyang is an infant-transformed ancestor of the Qi sect who is still alive today. This ancestor has a relatively approachable personality, likes to play with the world, loves nature and objects, and is endowed with teachings without distinction. Therefore, there are no forbidden areas in his Taoist temple.
Anyone can come and get it, regardless of ordinary cultivation or tradition, just like ordinary people who have no practitioners of Taoism.
It has become the most popular place for ordinary people in Jianye. There are not only elegant halls and high halls, but also small merchants and hawkers. Over time, it has become a famous casual market in Jianye. It is filled with all kinds of messy things, and there are no
Let others take care of it, because Taoist Ziyang likes this kind of atmosphere.
The square in front of the main hall is the busiest place. It has a vast space and is most suitable for setting up stalls. There are also thirty-six huge copper tripods in the square for people to burn incense. Of course, the most formal way to burn incense is
We entered the main hall, but there were too many people here. We were afraid of crowding and stampeding, so we ended up in the square, with vendors and incense pots mixed together. It was really chaotic, but it was a different scene.
Among the hundreds of stalls, two casual cultivators, one old and one young, were also playing with their goods, which were all worthless and a mixed bag of goods. Buying and selling here means you are lucky if you buy the right one, and you will be lucky if you sell the wrong one.
It's your misfortune, that's the nature of traveling businessmen.
They have been setting up stalls here for a long time. They came here once every ten days and a half in the past, but in the past two months they have been here every day. This is also in line with the characteristics of traveling merchants. Of course, there is no need to come if there is no stock, but if
If you pick up some unclear things from somewhere, of course you have to do it as soon as possible. In Ziyangguan, there are many such traveling merchants.
They killed another young man and sold an object for an incredible high price. Seeing that they were free, the two of them were not very happy.
The young man lowered his head to pack the things, but his thoughts were communicating with completely unrelated content.
"Lao Yan, just now Xiaoliu and the others sent news that there was a battle at the Liuer Palace, which may be related to that person. The specific results are still being investigated. Do you think the news will come out soon?"
Yan Lao picked up the teapot and filled himself a cup with a calm expression, "Xiao Wu, why are you in a hurry! And that Xiao Liu, who is always in a hurry all day long, and the wind is like rain; you have to remember, in our line of work
, the most important thing is to be determined when it comes to major events, and never get into trouble. Some people are expecting us to make mistakes while we are busy.
The higher authorities will decide on what to do, so we can just listen to the news."
These two people are the secret spies of the Yanmen in Jianye City, and they have a very important status; they are responsible for delivering the news between the Sikong Mansion and the Jianye Network. For these local rats, communication is the most important thing in the entire system.
a part of.
Xu Shanren exposed that the people from Sikong Mansion who came to the rescue were also trapped. This news was not unfamiliar to them; in fact, the entire Jianye Yanmen underground network has stopped activities now, and everyone is anxious and doesn't know what to do.
Should I stay or leave?
The task of the two of them is to receive the latest instructions from the Sikong Mansion, which is right here.
Xiaowu was very dissatisfied, "If you drag it around like this, sooner or later something big will happen! I've said before that the chance will be greater if we send someone to be responsible for the assassination, or if we help from the side, the chance will be greater, but the superiors won't let us intervene.
...They only believe in someone from the Sikong Mansion. Even if he is super powerful, if he is unfamiliar with the place like Jianye, what use will it be?"
Yan Lao glared at him and said, "Nonsense! The reason why we are not allowed to take action is to preserve our strength. Otherwise, the network we have worked hard to build for decades will be destroyed. Who can bear such a responsibility? We must believe in Sikong Mansion.
They must have a better way, we just need to receive the news and spread the news, which is the greatest help."
He looked around and said, "Stop complaining and keep an eye on the incense pots. Don't miss anything."
Xiao Wu curled his lips and said, "Don't worry, keep an eye on it! There were 237 pilgrims offering incense this morning, 209 of them only offered single tripod incense, and the rest offered double tripod incense.
, no one offers Sanding Incense..."
Yan Lao nodded slightly. Although Xiao Wu may be considered young, his cautiousness and meticulousness are beyond the reach of ordinary people. He is a person born to eat this kind of rice. His only problem is that he likes to complain.
One-ding incense is what most pilgrims who come to Ziyang Temple do, which is to put incense in only one of the incense cauldrons; two-ding incense is to put incense in two incense cauldrons. Only the most devout followers of Taoism do this.
Do, as for inserting three tripods, four tripods or even more, it is almost unique.
The two of them continued to set up a stall and shouted, but their attention was unobtrusively watching the incense pots. According to their agreement, the message would be expressed by placing incense.
How many incense notes should be inserted? In which incense pot should the incense be inserted? It means different meanings and different orders; such a handover will put them in absolute safety. There are thousands of people inside and outside the square, who will find out?
What's strange about this?
As it approaches noon, the flow of people has become a little thinner. Ordinary mortals will look for a place to fill their stomachs, but there are still people placing incense in an endless stream.
Xiaowu picked up a rag and pretended to wipe the object, but he felt a little excited.
"Lao Yan, someone inserted a second incense into the prescribed incense cauldron."
Yan Lao said calmly, "I saw it, don't worry, it might just be a pure coincidence. We have met several times in the past two months..."
There are thirty-six incense cauldrons in the square. According to their agreement, incense must be placed in six of the fixed incense cauldrons to be considered a complete signal. There is no chance of an accident happening with this probability.
Placing incense only represents the authenticity of this person as the messenger. As for further information, you need to see what this person does next. If this person leaves after putting incense, it means they are telling them to build a secret spy network to evacuate quickly; if this person
If people stay, it means the danger is over and there is no need to worry.
Simple, but very effective. Even Jin Dan Ying Transformation Daxiu couldn't guess the intrigue between them.
Under their unobtrusive gaze, the stranger walked slowly towards the prescribed third incense cauldron.
Xiao Wu swallowed nervously, "Lao Yan, it should be him. No one can insert the right Xiangding three times in a row!"
Yan Lao continued to drink tea. Although he was anxious in his heart, he didn't show it at all on his face. "No one of the six fragrant cauldrons can be missing. The order must not be wrong."
Just as Xiao Wu guessed, the rules between them are actually a bit too much. Choose three out of thirty-six and have to follow the same order. This makes it basically impossible for misjudgment to occur. It is necessary to have sex six times for insurance, and it is a bit redundant.
.
Soon, the stranger finished inserting the five incense cauldrons and walked directly to the sixth one. Without hesitation, even the old-fashioned and cautious Ru Yan had to admit,
"It should be him. Let's see what he does next?"
In the sight of the two people, the stranger slowly finished inserting the sixth incense stick, then looked around for a while, found an open space, took out a piece of cloth from the treasure gourd, spread it on the ground, and poured out a gourd with a mess!
Sitting cross-legged, he actually started setting up a stall?
