After entering June, Zhao Ran received a letter. When he received the letter, he was very confused and even suspected that someone was joking with him. When he opened the envelope, he found that it was a light sketch of a character, one foot long.
On the picture in Jianfang, there was a man writing a book. Zhao Ran looked carefully and found that the man's features were somewhat familiar. After looking at it a few more times, he realized that the person in the picture was actually him.
The thin, high-quality plain paper exudes a faint fragrance, which is refreshing to smell. Look at the left side of the painting page, which is covered with a square-inch seal. When you distinguish it carefully, it is the four words "Taoist Yumo".
Zhao Ran couldn't help but smile, as the graceful and elegant female Taoist priest in the pavilions in Beacon Villa that day appeared in front of his eyes.
Is this a love letter? Zhao Ran scratched his head, could it be that my words are really so attractive? Zhao Ran thought for a moment and decided not to cause trouble.
The class gap in this world is deeper and larger than the world before the time travel. The status differences between Zhao Ran and Yu Mo are extremely different. One is a poor boy from Zhaozhuang, and the other is the daughter of a wealthy family for several generations.
One is a layman who cleans the toilets in the Taoist temple, and the other is a serious Taoist priest who has an ultimatum. It is impossible for Zhao Ran to have a plan, at least for now. Even if he has a net worth of over ten thousand, he is still embarrassed in front of the Zhou family.
Worth mentioning.
Zhao Ran didn't know what to say, so he simply said nothing. He asked Guan Er to help find paper and pen, and wrote a riddle on it:
"On a midsummer night, a scorpion-tiger couple was looking for food on the wall. After dinner, the wife said something to her husband, and the husband fell to the ground. I asked, what is this word?"
The scorpion tiger is the gecko. The riddle describes a very interesting story. In the story, the husband of the gecko fell off the wall because of his wife's words. Zhao Ran asked Yumo what this sentence was.
Zhao Ran said a few words in Yumo very implicitly, then stuffed the letter paper into the envelope, sealed it and went to look for Yu Zhiyuan. The letter was delivered by Yu Zhiyuan. Letters in this era did not have stamps, and it all depended on the sender.
As for running errands, if Zhao Ran wanted to reply to the letter, he could only ask Zhiyuan.
Yu Zhiyuan took the letter entrusted by Zhao Ran without saying anything more, with a hint of worry in his smile.
Zhao Ran knew what Yu Zhiyuan was thinking. He and Yu Zhiyuan knew each other. Due to his calligraphy talent, Yu Zhiyuan did not neglect him because of his identity and family background. Similarly, because of his unique calligraphy, he was on the pen stand that day.
When he was staying at the villa, the wealthy Zhou family was also very considerate and enthusiastic towards him. But this does not mean that he has the qualifications to marry the wealthy Zhou family. "Bi Tan" belongs to "Bi Tan", but if you want to upgrade "Bi Tan" to "Bi Tan"
"Talk about love", that means Zhao Ran is "ignorant of current affairs".
Therefore, he said to Zhiyuan: "Taoist Yumo wanted to ask for a few words, so he expressed her feelings and replied to her with a few words."
Yu Zhiyuan nodded, still a little uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "The Zhou family is a big family in Sichuan. There was a pavilion elder in his ancestors, and Zhou Fuzun's father also served as a minister. Because he passed away early, these days
He has declined slightly in his youth. But the Master is extremely capable, and he is about to take a step further..."
The following words were not very clear. He hesitated for a moment, and when Zhao Ran nodded to express his understanding, he breathed a sigh of relief and said again: "The Zhou family has a deep relationship with the Taoist sect. Yumo's uncle is here."
Enshrined in Mount Lu... Yumo is the legitimate daughter of the Lord of the Zhou Dynasty. She has been regarded by the Lord as the apple of his eye since she was a child. She has very good qualifications. Entering Suxin'an is just the beginning, and her future achievements are limitless."
Zhao Ran was silent and sighed softly. Yu Zhiyuan said that Yu Mo's qualifications are very good, which means that this woman will take the path of cultivation in the future. She will enter the Taoist descendants' temple, which is the path of the pavilion, and Wuji.
The ten-direction jungle like the courtyard is completely different. It is another world in the Taoist sect. It is the real way of gods. To ordinary people, it is a legendary existence. With Zhao Ran's current dull qualifications, it is absolutely impossible.
Therefore, although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, he did not expect that the gap between them would be so huge.
Seeing that Zhao Ran was in a low mood, Yu Zhiyuan couldn't bear it and asked, "Brother Zhao, has he been in the subdivision for a month?"
Zhao Ran nodded in agreement, and Yu Zhiyuan added: "There are two vacancies in the second house of Water and Fire..."
Zhao Ran smiled bitterly: "We don't plan to add more people to the courtyard."
Yu Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and said: "If my brother is interested, maybe I can help explain it. I am still a bit thin in front of Song Xunzhao, the squatter, so I can tell you something."
After the abbot of Wujiyuan, Supervisor and Sandu, the actual person in charge is the eight-room deacon. The dormitory is the most regulated room among the eight rooms. What kind of private rooms, clean rooms, mills, and troughs Zhao Ran comes into contact with on weekdays.
The room, water room, fire room, dining room, vegetable room, etc. are all under the name of the head of the dormitory, and are under the jurisdiction of Song Zhiyuan, the patrol inspector of the dormitory. The transfer of personnel between the heads of the dormitory is within the scope of Song Zhiyuan's authority, but
The house is slightly different. No one wants to do the cleaning work. If this hole is opened, Song Zhiyuan will not be able to refuse others anymore. The final result will be that there is no one in the house.
The squatter inspector is one of the eight deacons, and Yu Zhiyuan is only one of the "Five Lords and Eighteen Heads". Not only is his position inferior to one level, but his power cannot be calculated. But according to Zhao Ran's observation, Yu Zhiyuan's family background
Very profound, since he said so, there should be hope that it will be done.
Faced with Zhiyuan's kindness, Zhao Ran was naturally filled with joy, but apart from the joy, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
During these days, the fireworkers in the clean room and the private room were not in a good mood. They often gathered together at dusk, but they had no interest in gambling with money. Most of the talk was about the dull matter of changing jobs.
topic.
When Zhao Ran returned from Yu Zhiyuan, the fire dwellers were chatting in the yard. They were still talking about this matter, but the atmosphere was very dull.
Jiao Tan has been sweeping for more than nine months, and Zhou Huai has been doing it for seven months, which has exceeded the average six months of sweeping for the fire dwellers. The two of them are sighing and complaining here. Now there is no new addition to the Taoist temple.
Newcomers, they can only continue to endure.
Some people advised them to find Zhou Zhixiu, the leader, but Zhou Huai was a sensible man and sneered on the spot: "If Brother Jiao and I leave, and only Brother Zhao is left, how can one person do it? Is Zhou Huai willing to do it himself?"
Go and do it? He is trying every possible means to make things difficult for us. Who will help us find a way out before we can do it?"
Fatty Jia was mentioned again in the gossip, and someone sighed: "I don't know who Fatty Jia offended. He was clean for seven years and the cat is still here..." Before he could say anything, someone grabbed his sleeve and pulled it.
Fatty Jia came out of the north room, hunched over and stared blankly at the people chatting. He then slammed the door back into his room. The sound of the door closing was so loud that everyone was shocked.
Guan Er was practicing boxing at the entrance of the courtyard. He struck out with a kick and was slightly sluggish. Then he shook his head and did not continue practicing. Instead, he clasped his hands behind his back and quietly walked away along the mountain path.
Zhao Ran looked at the scene in front of him and became more and more frightened. He thought to himself, when I am transferred to the water room or the fire room, you might be scolding me behind my back here... Neither Jiao Tan nor Zhou Huai could sleep that night.
Zhao Ran felt that Zhao Ran was also preoccupied. The three of them would occasionally turn around at the same time and sigh in unison, as if they had made an appointment, and seemed to have a "tacit understanding".
Yu Zhiyuan was really efficient in his work and called Zhao Ran the next day.
Following Yu Zhiyuan around, we arrived at the backyard. The backyard is not a courtyard, but a residence of high-level Taoist priests composed of about ten small courtyards. The abbot, prison courtyard and three capitals each live in one courtyard, and the eight deacons live in one courtyard each.
Then two people live together in one courtyard. In fact, this is not only a residence, but also a place where high-level Taoist priests work.
For example, in the small courtyard where Yu Zhiyuan and Zhao Ran entered, the main hall to the north was divided into two. The left side was Song Zhiyuan's deacon hall, and the west side was his living room.
There was no one else in the small courtyard, but Zhao Ran obviously felt a little embarrassed. It had been a month since he arrived at Wuji Temple. After hearing and seeing it, Zhao Ran had a deeper understanding of this Taoist temple than before.
In the Ming Dynasty, Guyang County Yamen was the government's yamen that controlled the world. Wujiyuan was the institution that supervised the Guyang County Yamen on behalf of the Taoist sect. The real behind-the-scenes controllers of Guyang County lived in these small courtyards.
——It seems simple, but in fact it is profound, because it represents the majesty of power
