Chapter 897 Re-entry into the world of magic sticks (thirty)
He Qingfeng raised his machete at the Xuanmen people, looking like a profiteer who was desperate for money.
But for ordinary people, he and Su Min strictly followed the requirements of the junior aunt——
"Fifth Aunt, I have already told you that there are no ghosts or gods in this world. You must believe in science!"
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there is a big gathering at Guiyuan Temple.
It is also the day when the incense in Guiyuan Temple is the most prosperous.
That day, Su Min showed his hand in front of Mrs. Chen. In less than half a day, the news spread throughout the small mountain village.
The people in the village were very convinced of "Xiangu Su".
Nowadays, Mrs. Chen speaks vividly. The key is that she really "saw it", which makes it even more convincing.
"Oh, it's not scientific, I just believe in you and Su Xiangu!"
The fifth aunt looks to be in her sixties, slightly fatter, with a round face and wrinkles that seem to have been stretched out.
It can be seen that this old lady is in good condition. Although she is not in a state of "not short of money", she is still living a comfortable life.
She looked at He Qingfeng eagerly, "I heard that your Su Xiangu used a magic talisman to save the grandson of the Chen family in the next street?"
"Oh, my eldest grandson in the city just had an accident a few days ago. I suspect that he was caught by something that didn't hurry!"
"Master He Guanzhu, how about you also give me a magic talisman, and I will send it to my eldest grandson so that he can wear it properly?!"
As Aunt Wu spoke, she took out a handkerchief from her pocket.
Shaking the handkerchief open, there was a stack of banknotes.
"Hey! Hey! Fifth Aunt, don't be in a hurry to pay for it. Let's talk clearly -"
He Qingfeng quickly stopped him.
Now, he has fully realized the painstaking efforts of his little aunt——
It is simply too easy for people in Xuanmen to make money.
He just goes to slaughter his peers, or those rich and nouveau riche.
Why worry about the mere few hundred pension money of those rural old men and women?!
He Tiantian:......
Ahem, is that what I meant?
But it doesn't matter, as long as He Qingfeng and his wife no longer lie to others like in the past, and have others point their noses at them and call them idiots, that's fine.
As for whether they regarded the people in Xuanmen as being taken advantage of, He Tiantian didn't care!
It’s rare to be confused!
Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings!
He Qingfeng:......
Well, you are the elder, you can do whatever you want!
He Qingfeng and Su Min have discussed in private that they will never do business with ordinary people in the future.
If these people really encounter supernatural events, they will take action secretly instead of promoting "feudal superstition" in person.
As for money, they will not ask ordinary people for it.
Haha, with just one talisman, they can make a lot of money from people in Xuanmen.
They don't care at all about ordinary people's trivial matters!
This is true for strangers, not to mention the old folks in the countryside.
He Qingfeng pressed Aunt Wu's hand to take out the money and looked at her face carefully.
Not to mention, the old lady’s Palace of Children is indeed a bit dark.
It seems that her eldest grandson is really in trouble.
He Qingfeng thought for a while and said: "Fifth Aunt, we really have to believe in science."
"Of course, if you care about your grandson, you can't help but have random thoughts. If you really want some psychological comfort, you can burn incense sticks and buy illuminated rosary beads."
This is a compromise method that He Qingfeng came up with.
It is indeed difficult to prevent a group of believers from becoming superstitious.
Moreover, the old lady is indeed in trouble at home.
He Qingfeng couldn't really take the initiative to solve it, but spiritual talismans and the like couldn't be given to ordinary people easily.
He simply prepared some rosary beads, hanging tags and other small accessories.
These things, even if they are handicrafts themselves, are valuable even if they are sold.
Sold to those old men and women, it can be used as an accessory and help solve some minor troubles. It is definitely worth the money, not to mention "cheating"!
"Rosary beads? How much do they cost?"
The old lady was a little moved.
Actually, she was also worried that her sons and grandchildren would not believe in the talisman she spent money to bring back from the Taoist temple.
They don't even know how to wear it!
Alas, there was no other way. She couldn't live with her son hundreds of miles away.
We can't stay together every day, so naturally we can't supervise them all the time.
The grandson casually said, "I forgot, I lost it." The old lady couldn't really argue with her eldest grandson.
It seems better to have rosary beads or wooden plaques.
At least it had nothing to do with "feudal superstition". At most, she wouldn't tell her grandson that it was a treasure that had been consecrated, but only that it was a souvenir bought at a Taoist temple.
Although the eldest grandson is rebellious, he respects and is filial to his grandmother.
You may not be able to carry it with you every day, but you will never throw it away.
As long as there is such a lighted magic weapon at home, it can play some role.
In just a few minutes, these thoughts had already flashed through Fifth Aunt's mind.
"Ninety-nine, including a handful of incense and a lightning strike wooden bracelet."
He Qingfeng pointed to the price list beside him, and the top row clearly read "Ninety-nine Packages".
"Okay! Okay!! I'll take this ninety-nine set meal!"
Fifth Aunt believed in He Qingfeng and his wife very much, and she knew that Mrs. Chen had directly stuffed several thousand dollars into her account in order to thank Su Xiangu for saving her life.
Now, I only need to spend ninety-nine to get the treasure blessed by Guiyuan Guan. Thinking about it, I feel it is worth it.
"Then I'll give you this ninety-nine set meal!"
He Qingfeng was very formal. When collecting money, he did not forget to issue an invoice to Aunt Five.
Ahem, the little aunt said that since the Taoist temple is open for business, it must pay taxes in accordance with the laws and regulations of the country!
In the past, He Qingfeng mainly relied on deception, and many things were kept secret, so naturally he did not dare to issue any invoices.
But now, He Qingfeng has the confidence, and what he sells is only incense candles, bracelets, etc.
And these can be found in any Taoist temple or temple. They can only be regarded as souvenirs of the scenic spots, not some deceptive tricks.
Without feeling guilty, He Qingfeng naturally dared to issue invoices and pay taxes.
With a few swipes, He Qingfeng issued the invoice and gave both the incense and the bracelet to Aunt Wu.
Incense is a high-quality incense commonly used in Taoist temples. Aunt Wu burns a few notes every once in a while, so she is not unfamiliar with it.
On the contrary, the rosary seems to be a new product of Taoism.
Fifth Aunt picked it up curiously.
This is a bracelet made of wooden beads, each bead is about the size of a peanut.
The beads were completely black, not paint or the original texture of the wood, but as if they had been burned by fire.
Oh, by the way, just now Guanzhu He said this was a "lightning-struck tree".
Oops, Aunt Wu knows that the lightning-struck wood is the wood struck by thunder and fire in the mountains.
Ward off evil spirits!
Some of the mahogany swords used by Taoist priests to exorcise ghosts and subjugate demons are made of lightning-struck wood.
This kind of wood is no cheaper than sandalwood and nanmu. It is an excellent thing.
Moreover, such a bracelet will not be too obtrusive when worn daily, and it will have the same fashionable style.
Even though Fifth Aunt is old, she usually plays with her mobile phone.
She understands all the things young people are particular about!
Fifth Aunt is willing to bet that even if her grandson doesn't like a bracelet like this, he won't dislike it too much.
If she talks to her grandson carefully, she might be able to persuade him!
The fifth auntie became happier the more she thought about it, and she felt very grateful for He Qingfeng.
"Guanzhu He, thank you! Thank you so much!"
After her grandson survived this disaster, she took her grandson to the Taoist temple to burn incense and fulfill her vows.
"You're welcome! Keep the invoice! Also, you have to believe in science. Burning incense is at best a psychological comfort. Praying to God and Buddha is far worse than praying to yourself!"
After collecting the money and handing the invoice to Fifth Aunt, He Qingfeng wore a Taoist robe and continued to promote science to believers!
The corners of Aunt Five's mouth twitched, feeling awkward in her heart, but she didn't say anything.
right!
Not superstitious!
I just believe in Guanzhu He and Xiangu Su, okay?!
The fifth aunt took the bracelets and incense, went to the main hall to burn incense, worshiped again and again to the clay statue, and then came down the mountain happily.
He Qingfeng smiled lightly and said, "Next one!"
"Guanzhu He, I feel a little uncomfortable lately. When I sleep, I always feel as if something is pressing on me!"
The next one is from the village at the foot of the mountain. He is in his fifties, dark and thin, but very energetic.
However, the old lady had obvious dark circles under her eyes. It was obvious that she had not rested for several days.
She looked around, lowered her voice, and asked mysteriously: "Guanzhu He, do you think I've been caught up in something dirty?"
He Qingfeng raised his head and accurately saw a black air mass on the old lady's shoulder.
Gee, what a naughty little devil.
Although He Qingfeng saw a ghost, he would not tell the old lady openly.
He cleared his throat and was about to continue his rhetoric of "believe in science and reject feudal superstition".
Before He Qingfeng could open his mouth, there was a voice coming from near and far——
"Who? Who is promoting feudal superstition?"
He Qingfeng frowned slightly and looked over following the sound.
Uh, I don’t know!
However, the uniforms worn by these people were very familiar to him.
Yaoyaoling police!
Moreover, He Qingfeng was sure that these policemen were not from their town.
Because in a small place like theirs, the villagers and the police are not very familiar with each other.
Some police officers are themselves children who have left their villages.
In addition, He Qingfeng managed Guiyuan Guan and also led activities such as the Guiyuan Guan gathering.
He is relatively familiar with the village chiefs, villagers, and town leaders of several nearby villages.
The town’s police station has also set up a convenient police service station near Guiyuan Temple.
Every time there is a large gathering, one or two policemen will come to patrol and maintain law and order.
He Qingfeng is very familiar with the police officers who often come on duty.
To put it bluntly, those police officers all knew that He Qingfeng was a good guy.
However, He Qingfeng and his wife have a bottom line, and even if they lie to others, they won't go too far.
Not to mention harming my relatives in my hometown.
At most, they coaxed tourists to spend one or two hundred yuan for a Taoist charm or a face-to-face meeting... and the police just turned a blind eye.
There is nothing we can do, they are all from the village, and the Guiyuanguan Fair organized by He Qingfeng and his wife has also boosted the local economy, so they can be regarded as meritorious officials.
Many people knew their details, but no one exposed them.
Not to mention, the old people in the family are very convinced of He Guanzhu and Su Xiangu.
If young people dare to target this couple, not only the person involved, but also their own parents, grandparents, and grandparents, they will rush in and curse them first!
He Qingfeng and Su Min took all these into consideration before they dared to pretend to be gods in Guiyuan Temple and in the small mountain village.
Now that the two of them have washed their hands of themselves and no longer lie to others, they are no longer afraid of the police!
What are you afraid of!
I didn't really lie.
Not to mention feudal superstition
However, those few unfamiliar police officers looked like they were coming with bad intentions.
He Qingfeng was secretly on guard, but his face looked calm.
He Qingfeng stood up, straightened his robe, and walked slowly towards a few people.
"Have some comrades misunderstood? We are a serious Taoist temple here. We only promote traditional Taoist culture, and there is absolutely no feudal superstition!"
What He Qingfeng said was so righteous and confident.
He once again thanked his little sister-in-law in his heart: Thank you, little sister-in-law, for helping us husband and wife find their way back.
Otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to face these strange police officers calmly at this moment.
"No? Why did I seem to hear something dirty just now?"
The leader is a young man in his thirties, with a Chinese character face, dark skin, and an upright appearance.
When he said this, his sharp eyes swept over the old lady just now.
"Hey! Young man, why are you staring at me?"
The old lady is not a good-tempered person.
The reason why she spoke softly to He Qingfeng just now was because she feared the gods and regarded the "efficacious" He Guanzhu as a master of Taoism.
Now facing the police, she is not so afraid!
What are you afraid of?
Her old lady didn't break any laws or regulations. She was just a little superstitious, but she didn't harm anyone.
Even if she goes to the police station, she is not afraid!
"No, old lady, I didn't glare at you."
When the man with the Chinese character face faced the old lady, his momentum immediately weakened.
Ahem, Chinese aunts are hard to offend, and Chinese aunts in rural areas are even more difficult to offend.
"What's wrong? I think it's your fault! Humph, if you don't care about so many thieves and rogues, why do you have to come all the way to Guiyuan Temple?"
The old lady rolled her eyes and became more and more angry.
Why did she say that the police came "all the way"?
Because she also saw that these few were not police officers in their town.
Also, if it were people from the town police station, they would rush to Guiyuan Temple.
What kind of place is Guiyuanguan?
Who are Guanzhu He and Xiangu Su?
Outsiders just watched the excitement online, but locals are very familiar with it.
...So, these people are definitely not from the police station in their town.
Maybe it’s from the county or even the city!
"..." Guo Zi was speechless. He had worked at the grassroots level for many years and had seen all kinds of people.
Among these people, the most troublesome ones are the aunts and uncles.
Stubborn and old-fashioned, unreasonable, relying on the old and selling off the old...
Anyway, when they meet such people, they can only persuade and coax.
"Old lady, did you just say that you felt uncomfortable, as if you were caught in something dirty?"
The Chinese-character face sorted out his thoughts for a while, and instead of continuing to argue with the old lady, he went straight to the topic...
