Fairy Runxiu said: "When we were in Zhidu Cave, our five sisters were all in the same place, but now we are on separate hills."
Lin Xiaodong said: "It would be very convenient for you sisters to meet each other."
Fairy Runxiu nodded: "That's true, but now, our sisters have all entered the realm of Hexu, and I, as a sister, seem useless."
Lin Xiaodong chuckled and said, "You have nothing to worry about. They don't need you to worry about them. They just have peace and quiet."
Fairy Runxiu nodded: "This is also true."
Lin Xiaodong said: "I fought with you that day and caused you to know all the holes. I hope you won't be blamed."
After hearing this, Fairy Runxiu said: "Taoist Master Lin, you have brought us to this good place in our lives, from the animal body to the realm of union. Such kindness can hardly be repaid even if we are broken into pieces, so how can we be resentful."
Lin Xiaodong said: "I also saw that you were in an animal body and had difficulty cultivating Taoism, so I killed the killer."
Fairy Runxiu lowered her head, pondered for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Taoist Master Lin, in my animal body, I believe in repaying kindness with gratitude."
Lin Xiaodong said: "The fairy is no longer an animal body now, but a body of nothingness, which is infinitely wonderful."
Fairy Runxiu said: "Even so, this is the only way I can repay my great kindness and virtue. I know that Taoist Master Lin has many wives, so please help me."
Lin Xiaodong stood up and bowed, and the two of them disappeared.
That evening, Hu Chen and Hu Huilan arrived at Qiongchang Mountain.
Hu Huilan is wearing a pink skirt and has yellow flowers on her head, which makes her look particularly pretty.
When Lin Xiaodong came out, Hu Huilan smiled and saluted: "Master Lin."
Lin Xiaodong raised his hand and returned the greeting: "Ms. Hu, Mr. Hu."
Hu Chen said: "Master Lin saved my daughter's life, but I haven't come to say thank you yet."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Mr. Hu is being polite, it's just a Taoist's duty."
Invite people to the hall.
The three of them sat down, and Hu Huilan said: "At that time, I really thought that I would never be able to escape. Thanks to Director Lin, I was able to return safely."
Lin Xiaodong said: "The thieves in Lianshan Village are disciples of the True Secret Sect of Liangtai Mountain. I will spare their lives this time. If they seek wealth and harm lives again in the future, they will be completely eliminated."
Hu Chen brought a bundle and put it on the table with a muffled sound.
Hu Chen said: "Taoist Master Lin, you know that my family is in the bank business, so please accept these two hundred taels of silver."
Lin Xiaodong waved his hand: "Lin doesn't need this much money."
Hu Chen looked up and said, "Taoist Master Lin is alone in charge of such a large mountain farm. There are many places to spend money. You're welcome."
Lin Xiaodong said: "How much money does Lin have to spend on food, clothing and housing?"
Hu Chen said: "Taoist Master Lin, I brought it all the way, I can't carry it back again."
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Thank you then."
Hu Chen said: "I have ordered someone to arrange a luncheon at home tomorrow, and I also asked Taoist Lin to honor it."
Lin Xiaodong took all the money, so he had to agree: "Let Hu Yuanwai spend the money."
Hu Chen waved his hand: "Taoist Lin saved me a thousand pieces of gold, a little money and a banquet, it doesn't matter."
Then he said goodbye.
On the morning of the second day, Lin Xiaodong came to Jicheng.
Jicheng is the county seat of Luhun County. It has a population of 300,000 and is quite prosperous. The streets and streets are crowded with people. Lin Xiaodong, who has been living in the mountain gate for a long time, suddenly came to the bustling place and was lost in thought for a moment.
In the east gate of the city, a group of people gathered together and pointed.
Lin Xiaodong looked over and saw a woman kneeling on the ground, wearing coarse linen clothes and looking haggard, but her beauty could not be concealed.
There was a piece of paper hanging around the woman's neck, with the words "Sell your body to bury your brother" written on it. In front of her was a straw mat, and lying on it was a child of twelve or thirteen years old, who had been dead for a long time.
People in the city were talking a lot: "This man is from the Jiang family in Fu'an Village. He grew up without a father or a mother, and his brother and sister depended on each other for life. Who would have thought that the younger brother got a rash and died."
"My sister treated my brother's illness, but even after selling the homestead, the disease was not cured. Now the house is gone and the land is gone, and the brother has no money to bury him."
"Just find a place, wrap it up in a mat, throw it away and bury it. Why sell yourself?"
Lin Xiaodong sighed, squatted down and asked, "How much do you want?"
The woman raised her head, her eyes dull: "I want ten taels."
The onlookers grinned and gasped: "It costs ten taels to bury a child?"
The woman burst into tears: "My brother died at the age of thirteen. He never enjoyed any blessings while alive. After he dies, I have to send him away in glory..." She burst into tears as she spoke.
Lin Xiaodong asked: "What's your name?"
The woman said: "My name is Jiang Qiushan, from Fu'an Village."
The onlookers laughed and asked, "Why, you, a Taoist, want to get a wife?"
"Do you have these ten taels of silver?"
“What if this woman also gets a rash?
My brother just died, which is unlucky."
Lin Xiaodong ignored him, took ten taels of silver in his arms and handed it to Jiang Qiushan: "Go and bury your brother. There is no need to sell yourself."
Jiang Qiushan held the silver and lowered her head in shock.
The onlookers were also very surprised: "This Taoist is really rich!"
"Those who practice Taoism have an easier time making money than us!"
"Taoist, something good is coming!"
Jiang Qiushan came back to her senses, looked up at Lin Xiaodong, and shed two lines of tears: "Dare I ask my benefactor's name?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Qiongchang Mountain Zhixu looks at Lin Xiaodong."
Jiang Qiushan nodded: "Young Master, I will serve you like a cow or a horse for your kindness, so I can repay you with pleasure!"
Lin Xiaodong said: "I will help you bury your brother."
I want to lift Jiang Qiushan up.
At this time, the onlookers suddenly moved out of the way and said, "Master Lu is here!"
The visitor was Lu Zhenglin, the son of the owner of Lijingxuan Restaurant in Jicheng, with a personal bodyguard.
Lu Zhenglin glanced at the paper on Jiang Qiushan's body and said, "Sell yourself to bury your brother?"
The onlookers said: "I want ten taels of silver."
After Lu Zhenglin heard this, he immediately stretched out two fingers: "I will give you twenty taels!"
The onlookers began to boo: "Master Lu is still rich!"
"Master Lu is going to have another concubine!"
"Master Lu has fallen in love with this little lady!"
Jiang Qiushan looked helplessly at Lin Xiaodong.
Lin Xiaodong held out five fingers: "I will pay fifty taels."
Guard Yu Ding asked angrily: "Who are you?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Qiongchang Mountain Zhixu looks at Lin Xiaodong."
Yu Ding was disdainful after hearing this and looked at Lin Xiaodong up and down: "You have an awesome nose, how can you get fifty taels?"
The onlookers said: "This Taoist just took out ten taels!"
Lin Xiaodong asked solemnly: "Who are you?"
Yu Ding pointed his finger at Lu Zhenglin: "You don't recognize Mr. Lu?"
Lin Xiaodong then looked at Lu Zhenglin: "I don't recognize him."
Yu Ding pinched his waist and shook his head: "The Taoist people on the mountain are short-sighted.
Listen carefully, my son is the son of Mr. Lu of Lijingxuan Restaurant!"
Lu Zhenglin pointed at Jiang Qiushan and said to Lin Xiaodong: "I've fallen in love with this little lady. If you are wise, get out of here!"
Lin Xiaodong's eyes turned cold: "Didn't you hear I offered fifty taels?"
Yu Ding stared and raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?
