Chapter 386 The first incense stick, jade pendant tribute
The white tiger naturally takes the lead and runs at the front.
Seeing this, Chen Qi smiled slightly at the old man and said, "Old sir, do you want to come with me? I will ask my men to help snatch the first stick of incense. Maybe you can see with your own eyes the face of the living god?"
"
The old man was overjoyed when he heard this. He had also seen Bai Hu squeeze to the front of the crowd just now. Maybe Bai Hu could really grab the first stick of incense.
If it is true, even if he cannot make a wish to the living god, it is still good to see the beautiful face of the living god.
"Okay, then I will accept my little brother's kindness."
Once inside, the old man was very enthusiastic and introduced Chen Qi, who had just arrived.
, built on the top of Xihua Mountain, the area is not large.
But although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.
Directly in front is the main temple, Sanqing Hall.
On the right side are the Palace of Wealth, Wenchang Palace and Sanguan Palace.
On the left are the Yaowang Hall, the Empress Hall, and the Doumu Hall.
Different temples represent different gods.
As a landmark building of Taoist temple, it should be the main temple.
It is also the place where the living god prays for blessings according to legend.
As expected, when Chen Qi and Suzaku came here, Bai Hu successfully grabbed the first stick of incense.
Seeing Chen Qi's arrival, Bai Hu rushed over excitedly, "Report to the Dragon Lord that the mission has been successfully completed!"
"Well done." Chen Qi replied with a smile.
"yes!"
It can be seen that many people around him are giving him unkind looks.
It must be because the white tiger stole their first incense stick, which made them feel unhappy.
Chen Qi naturally didn't care. He looked around and asked himself, "Didn't I say that after grabbing the first stick of incense, I can see the living god? Where are the others?"
But I heard a Taoist priest in front of me reply, "Hey, where are you this ignorant boy? So what if you grabbed the first stick of incense? If you want to see the temple master, you still need to show your sincerity."
Chen Qi looked at the Taoist priest, gentle, humble and polite, "May I ask how to be sincere?"
The Taoist priest looked sarcastic, "You don't know how to show sincerity, so you come here to make a wish?"
At this time, the old man on the side spoke, "Brother Chen Qi, the so-called piety means to bow three times and nine times to the living gods, and then offer tributes. As long as the living gods are satisfied, they will appear."
"You still have to kneel down?" Chen Qi was a bit dumbfounded.
.
The Taoist priest nodded slightly, "What's wrong with asking you to kneel down? If you want to ask for a wish, you need to be sincere. If you don't kneel down and salute, how can you show your sincerity?"
Chen Qi responded sternly, "Chen is kneeling down on his knees in front of the sky and his parents. He is a stinky old man who is making mysteries. Is he worthy of letting Chen kneel down?"
As soon as these words came out, the Taoist priest's eyes suddenly widened.
"How dare you be rude to the viewer!"
The old man was also frightened so much that making a wish to the living gods and kneeling down to worship was a necessary step.
After all, it is human nature to make a wish to an immortal, salute and kowtow.
But why did things change when we arrived at Chen Qi's place?
If he still dares to call the Living God a stinky nose, isn't he afraid of being punished by the Living God's wrath?
The old man quickly tried to persuade him, "Little brother, don't say these nonsense. If a living god listens to you, you will suffer a big loss."
Then, the old man said to the Taoist priest, "Master Taoist, this little brother is new here and doesn't understand the rules here. Please don't be angry."
The Taoist priest raised his nostrils to the sky and said impatiently, "It doesn't matter. Since this is his first offender, I won't pursue it too much. However, as you insulted the temple master, you have lost the opportunity to meet the temple master, so please come back."
"
But I heard Chen Qi shake his head and chuckle, "Chen will not leave until I see your temple master today."
The Taoist priest's eyebrows trembled, "Didn't you understand what I said? I have already said that you have lost the opportunity to meet the temple master!"
Chen Qi, like a dead pig who is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, put his sleeves in his pockets and said, "I have already told you to go and call your temple master out. I want to see him."
The Taoist priest finally became furious and said, "The temple owner is highly virtuous and respected. How can you, a mere mortal, see him just by asking?"
The Taoist priest looked gloomy, stared at Chen Qi and said, "It seems that you are not here to make a wish, you are here to cause trouble!"
When everyone nearby heard this, they were filled with indignation.
"Where did this person come from? How dare you act wildly? You really don't know the heights of heaven and earth!"
The speaker's name is Zhou Anfu, a businessman from Kinmen.
This time he came all the way to make a wish to the living gods to ensure that his future career will be smooth.
But what made him very depressed was that he had been coming for several days in a row and could not get the first stick of incense every day.
Therefore, he came here early to wait before dawn today.
But, even so, the first stick of incense today was snatched away again.
This really made him grit his teeth.
But now seeing that Chen Qi was brazen and insulting the Living God, as long as Chen Qi was driven away, he would have a chance to see the Living God again.
As soon as Zhou Anfu finished speaking, others echoed one after another, "Isn't it true? If you offend a living god and punish him, he will definitely be able to walk around with nothing to eat!"
"You don't know how to live or die, how dare you be rude to a living god! Kick him out!"
"Boom out!"
…
Facing the accusations from everyone, Chen Qi remained silent.
"By the way, I heard that if you want to see your temple master, you need to pay tribute, right?"
Chen Qi turned around and said, "Suzaku, present the tributes we brought."
Zhuque agreed and suddenly saw her take out a jade pendant from her pocket and hand it to the Taoist priest.
"Now, take it. I'm sure you, the patrons, will be willing to see us after seeing this tribute."
The Taoist priest took the jade pendant, examined it carefully for a moment, and then looked shocked.
"Is this the jade pendant of Senior Brother Zhao Kuang?"
The Taoist priest raised his head in shock, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"
As a Taoist disciple, he naturally recognizes Zhao Kuang, the number one disciple in the Taoist temple.
The jade pendant in his hand has the word "Zhao" engraved on it. It has always been carried by Zhao Kuang and never leaves his body.
Now it was suddenly taken out by someone else, which is really weird!
Chen Qi chuckled and responded, "You don't need to worry about where this jade pendant comes from. Just give this jade pendant to your temple master. I believe he will be willing to come out and see us."
The Taoist priest frowned, as if he realized something was wrong.
"Wait."
After that, the Taoist priest took the jade pendant and hurried into the inner hall.
While waiting, Zhou Anfu and others came forward to scold him again.
"That boy, I advise you to go back to where you came from. You just made rude remarks to the Living God, and you have already committed a heinous crime. If you wait for the Living God to come out, you will have to shed your skin until you die!"
"That's right, you are a blind brat. If you offend the living god with your recklessness and stop him from blessing you in the future, I will never be done with you!"
The old man was very anxious, "Little brother, I think you should leave quickly before the living gods come, otherwise it will be too late."
