"I swear...you are really...the weirdest monk I have ever seen!"
Ah Cheng scratched his head angrily.
suddenly:
"A-Cheng, I knew you were here!"
Not far away, another slightly older young man ran over.
"Brother, why are you here?" Acheng was a little surprised, then looked at Sang: "This is Ning Qi."
Sang smiled and said hello.
"You are really..." Ning Qi looked helpless: "My parents have said that after dinner, we will go to worship together, why are you here again?"
Ah Cheng snorted, a little unconvinced:
"That's where my parents' graves are."
"Here, I molded it for my mother."
"Mom likes orchids, there are many orchids here!"
Sang looked ashamed after hearing this.
Good guy, my parents’ tombstone is obviously not here, but another one is erected here?
After a while, when Sang and Ning Qi got to know each other, Ning Qi smiled and said:
"As Lang Jun said, meeting each other is also a fate."
"If you don't mind me, Mr. Lang, why don't we have dinner together today?"
Sang smiled and said, "In that case, it's disrespectful."
Ah Cheng rolled his eyes and muttered:
"Tch... I guess I just wanted to get some food from the beginning..."
…
Immediately, the three of them followed the road back to Lanxi Town.
Although it is a small town, it is a very prosperous place because it is located in the south of the Yangtze River.
The entire town has a large population and a lot of people coming and going to make a living.
Although the sky is not completely dark yet, lanterns are already hanging from every house.
Some vendors have already hung masks, lanterns and other items waiting to be sold.
"Speaking of it... today seems to be the half of July, the Hungry Ghost Festival." Sang Fuchen waved his hand and looked at the people selling offerings around him: "It's the day when the gate of hell opens."
Ah Cheng didn't seem to believe this and curled his lips:
"Sang, please stop scaring people."
"You are now a monk and now a Taoist priest."
"I see... you are actually a juggler."
On the side, Ning Qi frowned: "Little brother, don't be rude!"
Sang smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"
"Mr. Acheng has a straightforward and innocent personality, which matches me well!"
"Hahaha……"
While talking and laughing, the three of them returned to Ning's house.
But at the door, I heard a quarrel.
Taking a closer look, the person being watched by two servants seemed to be a wandering Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest was dressed in red robes, carrying a big sword on his back, and had a ferocious face, but his temperament was very different from that of outsiders.
"Taoist Priest, please don't embarrass us."
"You... you are so vicious, you don't look like a Feng Shui sorcerer..."
The servant's expression of rejection made the other party furious.
"How ridiculous!"
"I studied under Lu Shan and have been practicing for so many years. This is the first time I have seen someone judge their profession by appearance!"
"What a short-sighted person!"
"If it weren't for the fact that your Ning family has done a lot of good deeds in Lanxi Town, I wouldn't bother to care about your bad things!"
Ning Qi and Acheng saw this and trotted over quickly.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
The servants breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master!"
"This...this Taoist priest came out of nowhere and suddenly said...there is an evil spirit in our family!"
"You must come in and conquer the demons!"
"But...the master and his wife are not at home, how dare we take the initiative!"
Before Ning Qi and Acheng could speak, the Taoist priest turned around.
At this moment, Sang and Qi could not help but be stunned when they looked at each other.
Where...have you seen him?
But this head... is really high! It's almost touching the door beam!
But I saw the Taoist priest striding forward, and with his hands in his hands, he looked more like a scumbag than a monk.
"Since you two are young masters of the Ning family, this matter will be easy to handle."
"You guys let me in, and I'll leave as soon as I tell the demon!"
"There won't be a moment's delay!"
"Don't worry, I'm not a cheating person."
Just as he was talking, the Taoist priest also noticed Sang and immediately sneered:
"It seems that the two young masters have noticed the clues and invited a charlatan."
"It's just that...the one who took the beads and whisked the dust is clearly a liar."

"If the two young masters believe this kind of person, something will happen!"
"Are you talking like a firecracker?" Acheng suddenly became a little dissatisfied: "Sang is my guest, what does it have to do with you!"
"Besides, I see that you are a tall and thick man, but you still have a big iron sword behind you. You can't be a bandit from somewhere, are you?"
Ah Cheng is also an unforgiving person.
The Taoist priest was angry:
"I have a name and a surname, and I am called Zhenren Zhao!"
"Study under the red-headed master of the Lushan sect!"
"This time when I go down the mountain, I am also practicing according to my teacher's orders!"
"Don't humiliate me, Mr. Lang!"
Seeing that the situation was getting difficult to deal with, Sang quickly stepped forward and looked at Zhao Yuecheng with a smile:
"The Taoist master studied under the Lushan sect?"
"This is a bit strange."
"Two gentlemen, this big man is right. He is indeed a Taoist priest, and his Taoism is not weak."
"Huh?" Zhao Zhenren was a little dissatisfied: "Your Excellency is so rude, what a big man!"
Sang said with a smile: "You already said that I am a charlatan, what's wrong with your big man?"
"The master is in front of you, so don't be too rude."
"Master, it's better to put aside the fury of thunder for a while."
Master Zhao snorted coldly and said nothing.
When Ning Qi and Acheng saw this, they had no choice but to welcome them all into the mansion first.
After sitting down, the maid and servant served fragrant tea.
But Zhenren Zhao waved his hand: "We monks are not so particular. There is no need to make such tea for me. Just give me some cold water."
"I don't like this red tape about drinking tea!"
Sang was sitting cross-legged on a chair, looking out of shape, with his fly whisk scratching his back and the prayer beads in his hand.
finally:
"Aqi, Acheng, are you back?"
"I heard there are guests at home?"
During the inquiry, Zhenren Sang and Zhao looked at the couple in front of them.
Naturally, they are Mr. Ning and Mrs. Ning.
Sang never stood up, but said with a smile: "The heaven is full, the spirit is full, and no matter where you look, it looks like wealth and longevity."
"What a blessing for you two!"
On the side, Zhenren Zhao stood up and clasped his fists upright:
"Master Ning, Mrs. Ning."
"I am a mage from Lushan Sect, my surname is Zhao."
"When I passed by this place, I found that there was an evil spirit in the mansion, so I came in to catch the monster myself."
"But the two young masters can't trust me, so they asked me to wait until they come back."
Master Ning was stunned for a while after hearing this.
He looked at Sang first, then at Zhenren Zhao, and finally sighed helplessly:
"Aqi, Acheng, how long do you plan to hide?"
"Come out!"
"Make it clear!"
"Otherwise, I will punish you by kneeling down!"
Ning Qi and Acheng came out of the side room feeling a little guilty.
Ah Cheng pointed at Sang with a smile:
"Uncle, aunt, he is my guest!"
"I almost fell down on the mountain today, but he saved me. This stupid guy has nothing to do with me, and I don't know."
After finishing his words, Sang chuckled.
Zhao Zhenren on the side suddenly looked at Sang with an angry look on his face.
Sang coughed twice, suppressed his smile, and jumped down from the chair: "Master Ning, Mrs. Ning, please name me Sang."
"Buddhist Dharma name Daoyan."
"When I was on my way, I accidentally bumped into Mr. Acheng, and we got to know each other right away."
"Although it's a bit abrupt to say this, I do know a thing or two about this Master Zhao of the Lushan Sect."
"People in the Taoist sect say that there is a bandit Taoist in the Lushan sect. He has a vicious temperament and does not know etiquette. However, he takes killing demons and demons as his own duty. He has never made any mistakes and his Taoism is not bad."
"If he says that there is evil in Ning Mansion, then there is a high probability that..."
"Sang, why are you still talking to this stupid guy!" Acheng came to Sang with some dissatisfaction, and then rolled his eyes at Zhao Zhenren.
Sang covered his mouth and snickered: "I'm just stating the facts."
Master Ning and Mrs. Ning looked at each other in confusion. After Ning Qi's explanation, they finally understood their identities and their intentions.
Mr. Ning was indeed a hospitable man, and he immediately smiled and said:
"In that case, you two might as well stay and have a meal first."
"It is not the rule of our Ning family to let the Taoist priest do things for us when we are hungry."
Sang's smile became brighter and brighter:
"Then thank you Mr. Ning and Mrs. Ning!"
Mr. Zhao on the side said in a stiff tone:
"I said, it is my duty to conquer demons."
"I'm not using this to blackmail you two into giving me any reward."
"You don't have to..."
Before he finished speaking, a gurgling sound came out.
Sang suddenly burst into laughter and pointed at Mr. Zhao: "You are really a tough talker."
"You are such a tall person and you eat a lot. I guess you have been starving for a long time!"
Zhao Zhenren glared at Sang with some irritation.
Master Ning smiled and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"

"The real person is here for the safety of my Ning family."
"No matter what, I can't not even entertain you a meal. That would be disrespectful."
"Butler, please order the kitchen immediately to make some good wine and delicious food."
…
At the dinner table, Mr. Zhao remained silent. He seemed a little embarrassed despite his upright attitude, and just stared at the plate of vegetarian dishes in front of him.
And most of the time, I just eat plain rice.
Sang, who was next to him, almost laughed out loud, but he handed a chicken drumstick to Zhao Zhenren without being very polite.
Zhao Zhenren was stunned.
Master Ning and others were also a little surprised.
Sang said with a bad smile: "Anyway, Zhenren Zhao doesn't belong to the Quanzhen sect. He can eat meat. For such a big man, if you only eat such a few vegetarian dishes, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch ghosts later."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Saying that, Sang took advantage of the situation and picked up a piece of meat for himself.
Ah Cheng couldn't help but said: "That's it, you still tell your uncle and aunt that you are a monk. Who is a monk who eats meat?"
"A Cheng!" Mr. Ning coughed lightly.
Sang smiled and said: "I practice Buddhism just because practicing Buddhism is interesting and Buddhist scriptures are interesting, but... the precepts are boring!"
"I practice Taoism because the Taoist scriptures are fun, but the precepts are also useless."
"In this life, it is true to act according to one's own will."
"It's so uncomfortable for someone like the guy next to me to live a rigid life!"
