The villagers all felt that it was appropriate. After all, the monks were responsible for monsters and monsters.
I just want to hire a monk, who will pay for it?
Although there are chivalrous and courageous righteous monks who only want to slay demons, most of the monks still need to be paid before they are willing to take action.
"Logically speaking, this matter has the most to do with Shunzi, he should pay..." Qian Xiulan thought for a moment, "But everyone knows about his family's situation, and there has been another drag on him recently.
You may not be full even after eating..."
Chu Daya nodded desperately. She didn't want Niu Shun to pay. In fact, her family didn't have much money, and the two of them could only eat half full.
Niu Shun was thinking, I have the treasure my mother gave me in a dream, so hiring a monk is not a big deal. But I can’t let anyone know about it right now, otherwise the wealth will attract people’s hearts, and who knows if the villagers will rob it? I must follow what I thought before.
The best thing to do is to smuggle the treasure out and let the villagers think they earned it.
Compared with the unexpected wealth, the villagers are less likely to snatch the money you earned. If you put it in the mountain maze and didn't get it back, others would think it was an ownerless thing, so snatching it away was considered skill.
When did I have such a bright mind that I could think of these things? I always feel that it is both real and illusory, and I can’t figure out the situation.
"Who will pay for the invitation?" a villager asked loudly.
"This is a matter for our village, and everyone should work together!" The village chief stood up, "In this way, those who are more difficult at home can forget it, and those who are a little better can join in..."
"Why?!" Several villagers with relatively good lives were unconvinced, "We won't go out!"
"Yes! Why let us go out?"
"I can't give you this money!"
...
"Do you want money or life? What if it's really a monster that harms people..." The village chief was a little worried.
“We can’t just pay for it!!”
"Do you still want people who have no money to fry pots and sell iron? They can't survive?" The village chief turned around and shouted dissatisfied.
"Don't we want to live a good life?" Those who had a little money at home shouted one after another, not buying it at all.
There was no other way, so the village chief had to persuade each household one by one. There were a few people who were willing, but they saw that the others were not letting go and did not want to suffer alone, so they stood aside and said nothing.
Later, Yang Jie couldn't stand it anymore and stood up: "Okay, okay, what's the big deal? Are you willing to risk your life for a small profit? Village chief, I paid for the money. Hurry up to the county to ask for a seat at dawn.
Monk, don’t delay! I don’t want anything to happen again when I’m studying at night. Yang Lian, give me the money!”
"Okay, okay! Young Master Sheep is still generous." The village chief turned back and glared at the villagers who were unwilling to cooperate, thinking that it was time for you to only care about yourself.
Yang Lian, the incarnation of Jia Zhengjin, came over, took out Young Master Yang Jie's purse, and took out a small piece of silver: "Is this enough?"
"That's enough, that's enough!" The village chief's eyes lit up, "Ask ordinary Taoist monks to chant sutras, you won't need so much."
"If you want to invite, please invite a better monk, not one who can only chant sutras." Yang Jie said, "If you can solve this problem, come to my house anytime if you don't have enough money."
"Your words are enough!" The village chief took the money, "Master Sheep, I promise that you will not be disturbed tonight."
"I hope so." Yang Jie nodded calmly.
"Then who goes to the county to find monks?" Niu Bao asked.
The village chief turned to look around and pointed at Da Liu and Qian Xiulan: "Da Liu, Xiulan, your family owns a bullock cart, and you are going to the county to sell game, so you are on your way. You and your wife will go there."
Bar?"
"Why? Doesn't Lao Zhu's family also have a bullock cart?" Qian Xiulan was reluctant.
"Okay, okay, it's just a matter of convenience." Da Liu was easy to talk to and reached out to take the money. "Leave this matter to me and Xiulan, and we will ensure that the monk is brought back as quickly as possible."
"Then I'll trouble you!" The village chief felt relieved, "Don't delay, go now!"
"Okay!" Da Liu nodded and called to his wife, "What are you still doing? Let's go to the county!"
Her husband had said so, what else could Qian Xiulan do? Although she was not very happy, she could only follow her in the end.
"Okay! If something like this happens, we all need to be more cautious." The village chief looked around and looked at the villagers who stayed beside him. "No supernatural things have ever happened in our Niulan Village. Now, there have been several sudden incidents.
People are worried. For the sake of safety, everyone should not go to the mountains or work in the fields today, and stay at home. If you want to go to the county, hurry up, go with Da Liu and the others, and try not to be alone. We don’t know what will happen.
Whatever happens, we can wait until the monks come over to see what happened."
The village chief's decision is correct. No one knows what strange events will happen.
If the villagers go up the mountain or go to the fields, but are not so lucky, and encounter deadly ghosts, wouldn’t it be unfair?
In fact, except for blacksmiths, carpenters, and woodcutters like Niu Shun, most of the villagers rely on farming to make a living. The occasional absence from the fields for a day has little impact.
The blacksmith and carpenter also stayed at home, but Niu Shun, the woodcutter, was more unlucky. If he didn't chop wood, he would have no money. After all, no one else knew he had the treasure in the maze.
The village chief was thoughtful: "Shunzi, you take this child to my house for dinner today, and don't chop wood for the time being!"
Niu Shun glanced at Niu Xi depressedly. The two looked at each other and nodded to each other.
I originally planned to continue going to the maze to get the treasure, but the current situation is special, so it doesn’t matter if I postpone it for a day.
"Is there anything else? Then I have to go back to study." Yang Jie said to the village chief.
"Okay! I'm sorry for the trouble, Master Yang." The village chief responded quickly. The Yang family is now rich, very rich. Originally, they all moved to the county and only came back during the holidays. This time when Yang Jie came back, it seemed that he was still alive.
If you want to stay there permanently and build a good relationship, with the Yang family's financial resources just a little bit out of your fingers, you can do a lot of things for the village. Of course, you have to be polite to him.
"Well, brother Wang, I'm going back first!" Yang Jie turned to Wang Xu and gave a salute.
Wang Xu returned the favor and watched Yang Jie and his servants turn around and walk toward the old house.
Jia Zhengjin's transformed Yang Lian followed Yang Jie, recalling the villagers he had just observed as he walked. Some of the suspects were relatively high, and he thought it might be Yue Lang or a few other people from the Four Heavenly Palace who had changed, but it didn't seem to reveal much of a flaw.
However, Da Liu's daughter-in-law, Qian Xiulan, the aunt who used to tease Niu Shun all the time, has a relatively positive attitude today. Also, while talking, her eyes looked around and met hers several times, which was not considered in itself.
The probability is too high, and it suddenly increases a lot.
It seems that we should pay attention to Qian Xiulan. There is a possibility that she is Yue Lang.
Also, we have to figure out why most of the supernatural incidents are aimed at Chu Daya. Because we cannot rule out the possibility that Chu Daya is Yue Lang, even if the probability is not high... (To be continued)
