Chapter 87 Money can make the world go round

 Chapter 87 Money can make things worse

Tao Taigong was originally drunk, but the call that came from nowhere sounded directly in his heart, making him dissipate. However, he did not wake up after the drunkenness dissipated. Tao Taigong sat up. Come, look around, you will see that the place where you are is a vast expanse of white, and you can only see the swirling clouds, which are misty and extraordinary.

It's obviously not the place where the Dizhi Tutu Temple is located.

But I didn't feel anything unusual at all.

He just instinctively got up and walked forward, following the sound. Suddenly he saw flowers scattered in the sky, golden lotuses surging on the ground, and countless streams of light gathering and surrounding him. Tao Taigong seemed to be awake in this state, and seemed to know that this was A god came, so he raised his hand, straightened his clothes, then folded his hands, stepped forward a few steps, respectfully, and was about to speak, when he saw the face of the god surrounded by gods.

The old man seemed to have been frightened for the second time.

He stuttered a little when he spoke: "Qi...Qi Wuzhuo?!!"

The young Taoist looked around and saw many strange things.

Tao Taigong seemed to see the young Taoist lowering his eyes and shaking his head, and said to himself: "So this is what these spells do..."

"I see."

Then I saw that as soon as the young man's sleeves and robe were swept away, the clouds, rays of light, golden lotuses, and fallen flowers all disappeared.

What appeared in front of me was the young man wearing ordinary blue clothes.

Tao Taigong seemed to have no self-consciousness in the dream and said: "Ah, Qi Wuhuo, are you back?"

The young Taoist said: "Well, how have you been doing in the mountains this past year? Are you doing well?"

The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It's still very good. Things in the mountains will not change in one year or ten years. Even that Huangjing plant has been full of Taoism for a thousand years. It could have been done." I have turned into a human form, but I have to wait until you come back, and then say that I will change again under your witness."

"This way, I can ask you for a snack as a gift as a matter of course."

The young Taoist chuckled.

He stood up and walked slowly side by side with Tao Taigong.

This dream technique is to use my own spirit to communicate with other people’s spirits.

Following Tao Taigong's words, the originally vast white world suddenly changed. The familiar land and scenery of Helian Mountain appeared. There was a deer spirit jumping next to it, and there was a man who had absorbed Geng Jin Stone and cultivated. Gengjin mana monkey.

And the little man transformed from Huang Jing.

Several other land animals appeared next to the young Taoist, walking all the way, talking and laughing, talking about the things that happened in Helian Mountain in the past year. The young Taoist walked beside them, smiling, with black hair on his temples. Hanging down, his hands were lightly clasped behind his back, but he did not look mature and prudent. On the contrary, there was a bit of briskness in his steps that belonged to a young man.

The two sides were originally covered with snow, but suddenly grass and trees sprouted. The buds of the grass and trees grew, and eventually they became lush and the flowers were fragrant. Then they withered, the leaves turned yellow, and the mountains and fields were covered with gold. Finally, white snow fell again from the sky.

Over the past year, the scenery on Helian Mountain has been revealed only during these few steps.

Tao Taigong also recounted what happened during the past year.

He said that he had a temple, and that people actually didn't come here very often, only the spirits in the mountains liked to come here to take shelter from the rain.

He said that his husband was looking for him and was worried that he was lost.

It was Tao Taigong who went specifically to see Mr. Su.

It is said that the buds in the mountains have a pleasant fragrance in spring, that the flowers in summer are cute, that the mountains and fields are red in autumn, and the fruits they bear are enough to satisfy the little ones in the mountains, and that the snow falls in the winter sunset.

The mountains are swollen.

Say that the spirits in the mountains miss you.

Tao Taigong said in his dream: "But it will be good if you come back this time."

The young Taoist paused and said, "I can't come back now."

The old lady stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Huh? What are you talking about again?"

"Aren't you back already?"

The young Taoist said gently: "Tell everyone that I miss them too, and I have prepared the elixir from last year."

The old lady asked in confusion: "Are you leaving again?"

The young man thought of the many regrets on that white paper and said, "Where have we never left?"

The young Taoist stopped and said:

"Old Master, at sunset tomorrow, you can set up an altar in the mountain and perform the ritual with twenty-four drums. There is a treasure edict as follows..."

……………………

"Wine, wine..."

"I'm still, not drunk, not drunk!"

"Ah? Baogao!"

In Tu Tu Gong's cave, Tao Taigong suddenly exclaimed in a daze and stood up abruptly. What he had just seen in his dream was blurred in his mind. He only remembered the scroll of Baobao. While he still remembered it, he quickly

I took a pen and paper and wrote it down. I could record it. When I looked at this book of imperial edicts and the last sentence, "The True Monarch of the Wonderful Way without Hustle", I didn't know if I was drunk but still felt a tingling sensation in my head.

"Wuhuo Baogao..."

Tao Taigong lived for three hundred years and knew what this meant.

The old man smiled bitterly and said: "In the Taishang lineage, the most important thing is the mind, followed by the understanding, but..."

"This, this is too..."

"It's not very good for the heart."

Looking around again, I suddenly felt very sad. I had learned about the Taoist Xuanzong from the young Taoist a year ago, and how to cultivate the innate energy. However, I was full of ambitions at first, but later I was invited by my friends again and again to visit the mountains and rivers, and drink as much as I wanted. I don’t know.

Unconsciously, I put down my practice again.

But this treasure edict was like a thunderbolt.

The old man looked at himself in the mirror, smelled the smell of alcohol around him, and couldn't help but sigh: "I never thought that I would be so depressed that I haven't practiced practice for a long time!"

"Dharma-protecting divine general, pass on my oral instructions!"

"Starting from today."

"Quit drinking!"

………………

Qi Wuhuo ended his dream and put away the jade book and the mountain god's talisman. Through trying, he came to know the magic formulas in this volume of "Xuan Tan Yuan Dian", and many parts were used to create various strange phenomena. , the young Taoist didn't quite understand why he had to waste his soul and soul on such a thankless thing.

So of course these things were removed.

After thinking about it, I decided to buy some materials needed for the mysterious altar.

Let's try with Tao Taigong tomorrow to see if we can send these pills directly.

After all, the Xuan Altar is not as good as Tuo Meng. Tuo Meng can rely on Tao Taigong's jade book and his own mountain god's seal to make a simple altar. The Xuan Altar will be officially opened tomorrow, so he has to be more cautious. Qi Wuhuo packed up his things and took another He took out some money, wrote a note about the things he wanted to buy and stuffed it into his sleeve robe, then closed the door and headed towards Zhongzhou Fucheng as it was not long in the afternoon.

The combination of the Earthly Escape method and the footwork of the "Hunyuan Sword Code" has become increasingly smooth.

Arrive at Zhongzhou Fucheng.

Chaofeng has a keen eye and proactively greets:

"Hey, little Taoist priest, you are here!"

"The city has been busy lately!"

Jiao Tu laughed and said: "Many practitioners have great spirituality, but they are not pure. Few people can hear what we say."

"So he was a little bit tongue-tied."

Chaofeng was furious: "Who is talking nonsense?! You obviously have a bigger mouth, right?!"

Jiao Tu was furious: "You, a guy who talks nonsense when you see something happening in other people's homes, do you have the nerve to say that?!"

The two statues, who had been bickering for hundreds of years, started bickering again.

Chaofeng did not forget to tell Qi Wuhuo: "Little Taoist, don't go to the west. A very strange monk came there today. He said that there was some kind of fate here and he had to find a disciple. I saw the Buddha's light above his head. Dazzling, there may be something there, but be careful not to get caught in his eye!"

"You can go to the north."

“The east side is a big place and you can go there!”

Qi Wuhuo thanked him.

Chaofeng said casually: "It's nothing, not many people can hear me anyway."

"Little Taoist priest, you must become a real person as soon as possible!"

The young Taoist smiled and nodded, and then he used a blind trick to walk into the city and went to Fangshi. There was a whole street specially prepared for Xuantan rituals. Taoist priests and many ordinary people also use incense burners to provide fragrance.

Qi Wuhuo thought about the mysterious altar, which had special categories of melons and fruits, Dharma drums, incense burners, incense, nameplates, and yellow paper.

Since it is pointed directly at Xuantan.

Most people choose [Taste the fragrant fruit].

It is divided into five fruits and six fasts.

But that volume [Xuantan Original Canon] has also said that this is to make the mind of the practitioner clear, and the gods will not really come to eat the fruit.

The young Taoist still remembered the elegant and free words at the end of the original volume, but he didn't know who wrote them.

[A pure offerer, a person who makes an offer, has no self or anything. Although he performs the act of offering, he is not attached to the matter of offering]

[Although it is clear water, it is OK]

[Persisting in making offerings means forgetting oneself and not practicing, and is a non-practitioner]

However, why is there sugar cane in the Jade Emperor’s fruit offering? Does he like sweet food?

The young Taoist was puzzled. Fortunately it was winter and there was sugar cane. Where could he find it in summer?

I bought fruits from the East Market, some vegetarian fruits from the South Market, and went to the North Market to look for incense burners and Dharma drums. I didn’t expect that the incense burners and Dharma drums were more expensive than the young Taoist expected. I heard a surprised sound, so I opened a shop.

The Taoist smiled and said: "Where can the little Taoist cultivate so highly?"

Qi Wuhuo replied with Yue Ji's answer.

The old Taoist laughed and said, "He is a fellow Taoist cultivator."

"Seeing that you are a man with magic power, you brought out good things. This thing I have is pretty good, but to say it is the best, this is it." He lifted up the hem of his clothes and patted the Dharma drum on one side.

, said proudly:

"It can communicate with ghosts and gods, and reach the underworld."

"It is considered a high-quality magic weapon. It doesn't seem to tremble when held in the hands of a real person with ordinary magic. This is so expensive."

"A hundred taels of gold will not be given to anyone."

"I saw you were a fellow practitioner, so I brought it to give you the palm eye."

The young Taoist saw that there was indeed a trace of magic flowing on the Dharma drum, and said: "It's a good thing."

It was rare for the old Taoist priest to see someone who knew the goods, so he smiled and said: "That's right, I can only exchange it with him for this [Emperor of Heaven's Money]."

Qi Wuhuo was stunned. He did have three [Celestial Emperor's Money] from Tantai Xuan in his hand, but he didn't know what these things were used for. The veteran who retired and opened an incense shop here smiled and said: "Little guy

Casual cultivators don’t know that it’s normal to have money from the Emperor of Heaven. This is a good thing. If you meet the traveling gods and earthly creatures on the road, they won’t recognize the great money of our worldly dynasty, and they won’t care about gold.”

"I only recognize this [Emperor of Heaven's Money]."

"Then what is the use of this Heavenly Emperor's money?"

"Ha, of course we are making a deal with the immortals. They are all founder-level figures of various sects. A little leakage from between our fingers can make us go smoothly. As for the weight of this [Celestial Emperor's Money],

Oh, the little Taoist priest knows that after ordinary people die, their souls are taken away by ghosts, right?"

"The ghosts of the underworld wander around everywhere, and they have lists in their hands."

"It's because we know in advance who's soul energy will be exhausted today, so we wait in advance."

The old Taoist held out a finger:

"One piece of [Celestial Emperor's Money] can let the Yin Si Gui Cha be the last to seduce your soul."

"In other words, the life soul can remain in the body for half a day longer."

"As the saying goes [money can make the world go round]."

"This money is the [Celestial Emperor's Money], and this ghost is the [Educated Ghost]."

"What this sentence says is that as long as you have enough money from the Emperor of Heaven, you can let those high-ranking underworld ghosts and seducers work as donkeys for you to push the millstone!"

When the old Taoist saw the young Taoist's amazed look, he felt happy and felt the comfort of being a teacher. He stroked his beard and said:

"It's because you bought something from me today that I told you this."

"Little Taoist priest, as a casual cultivator, you should learn more."

The young Taoist thanked him, thought for a moment, and asked, "But what do gods and ghosts do with the money from the Emperor of Heaven?"

The old man's thoughts were stagnant.

The stroking movements stopped.

"Um???"

Why did you think of this?

No, don’t others think that Emperor Money is very powerful? Why do you think about why this thing is so powerful?

He coughed and said, "This, this, I can't tell you."

"I don't know if you are an old Taoist priest."

Then he said loudly and quickly: "Ah, I won't say anymore, little Taoist priest, which Dharma drum do you want?"

"Ah, business, business!"

The young Taoist had no choice but to choose a Dharma drum, and then left under the gaze of the old Taoist priest who wiped his sweat and breathed a sigh of relief.

He should have gone back, but he suddenly thought of what Xiao Feng said. He paused, thought for a while, and simply walked in the direction of the so-called "East is a great place to go" and walked through the streets and the main trunk of the city.

People were coming and going, and they saw the bridge again. Starting from the direction of the city tower, it spread to the bridge where the market stalls were allowed.

Standing on the bridge, pedestrians come and go, like an endless stream. There are nine bridges under the bridge, and the river crosses this Zhongzhou capital.

The young Taoist saw a very big tree from a distance. He had seen this old tree last time.

Under the tree, an old man is playing chess.

It was the old gentleman I saw earlier who had a moist breath and water vapor on his body and had been exposed to the rain during the Jinzhou Disaster.

The old gentleman seems to be setting up a stall. There is a white paper sign next to it, which says "Sit east and west, invite guests to play chess"

[Challenge at will, three big coins at a time]

[The winner will get a drop of money]

But it is a chess stall for playing chess.

But now the person playing chess with the old gentleman is a ten-year-old naughty boy.

The old gentleman said happily:

"Ha, we won!"

The naughty boy dropped the chess piece and said in frustration: "No more, no more!"

When he got up and was about to leave, the old man quickly got up, took the child's hand, stretched out his fingers, and said: "The next game, the next game, no one has played chess with me recently, it's too boring."

"One round!"

"Just a game of chess!"

"I won't charge you any money."

"After we finish playing chess, can I buy you some candied haws on a stick?"

The old gentleman was coaxing the child and suddenly noticed something.

He raised his head and saw the young Taoist priest over there.
