Thanks to brother yangzhigang and Mr. Phoenix for the winter plums and rewards. Thanks to brother who can’t find the direction.
, Brother Fat Monkey’s reward is so polite! Continue to thank fellow Taoists for their Sanjiang tickets!
Just as he sent away another group of people who came to see him off, Jin Jiu came to the door in a hurry. This guy has been busy keeping an eye on Zhang Ze's whereabouts recently, just to show his face in front of Zhao Ran and successfully squeeze into the ranks of the Taoist priests who received the ultimatum.
During this period, Zhao Ran started his career as a sweeper of fire, entered the kitchen, received an ultimatum, and was promoted to the master of Jing. The lapse of time and the strange encounter made Jin Jiu stunned. Especially when he turned the tide a while ago and conquered Xi in the Sanqing Palace.
After the disgraceful deeds of the abbot of Zhenwu Palace spread, Jin Jiu's eyes almost popped out of his head.
In Jin Jiu's eyes, Zhao Ran can no longer be described as tall, he is simply an existence that cannot be looked up to, so he is more and more in awe of Zhao Ran, and more and more convinced that he can successfully accept the ultimatum - as long as Zhao Ran is willing! But
Now he suddenly heard that Zhao Ran was leaving Wuji Courtyard, and he immediately became anxious. Although he knew the truth, the tea would get cold as soon as he left. If Zhao Ran was no longer in Wuji Courtyard, how could he still receive the ultimatum?
As soon as he saw Zhao Ran, this guy rushed over to him. Regardless of any etiquette, he grabbed Zhao Ran's big sleeves and grinned and started crying: "Master Zhao Jing, Taoist Zhao, you can't leave. What will I do if you leave?"
ah?"
Zhao Ran shook him off angrily and shouted: "If you have something to say, please say it. A man is upright. What's going on if you cry and make trouble!"
After being scolded by Zhao Ran, Jin Jiu stopped crying, but his face remained slumped, like a bereaved mother.
Zhao Ran shook his head. He understood Jin Jiu's difficulties. He was afraid that no one would stand up for him after he left. He would not be able to be a serious Taoist priest who accepted the ultimatum and would not be able to pay back the thousands of taels of silver, so it was not easy to scold him anymore.
, and comforted him: "Don't worry, what I said will naturally count. I have already told the Song Supervisor about your matter, and he said he will consider it." There was an ambush in Zhao Ran's words. He didn't know that he
After confessing frankly to the higher-ups in the hospital, whether Song Zhiyuan would give him this face - he was probably in doubt. But in short, he did mention to Song Zhiyuan about Jin Jiu's ultimatum, and it was not considered a breach of trust. As for whether Jin Jiu could do it in the end
If he becomes a serious Taoist priest, then it has nothing to do with him.
But like most people in Wuji Court, Jin Jiu didn't know the real reason why Zhao Ran left Wuji Court. At this moment, after receiving Zhao Ran's words, a stone fell in his heart. He immediately turned from sadness to joy, and his face became darker than the sky in June.
Still fast.
"Thank you so much, Master Zhao Jing! Oops, I really caused trouble to Master Jing. I feel really sorry for you..."
Zhao Ran interrupted Jin Jiu and asked, "Is there anything else? I'm packing my bags and getting ready to leave, so I won't keep you any longer."
Jin Jiu was still in high spirits and did not think about the meaning of chasing away guests in Zhao Ran's words. Instead, he tried his best to show off his merits in front of Zhao Ran and said hurriedly: "Master Jing, I found out again that Zhang Ze brought several Zhang Ze with him last night.
As a companion of the government, I went to Guyang County to find trouble for the Hu family. However, it seemed that the Hu family was not at home last night, and she did not return from singing somewhere, so the man was in vain... My people have been keeping an eye on Zhang Ze's whereabouts.
Do you think you need to take action? Well, it’s simple. If Zhang Zeruo wants to be tough, the world is clear. Although Hu is from a humble background, he is not someone who can be bullied casually, right?"
Zhao Ran was going to Baima Mountain soon, and he had no intention of fighting with Deacon Dong and Zhang Ze anymore. Moreover, he had considered all the possibilities in the past two days. He felt that this matter was not a big threat to him. Now that Jin Jiu wants to come forward to defend,
That is of course better, but he just told Jin Jiu not to involve himself in it, as he would not admit it anyway.
After all the people were sent away, it was almost evening. Zhao Ran thought for a while, got up and walked to the back mountain. After all, the Observation Terrace held many happy memories for him, as well as that slovenly man.
He also wanted to visit the thatched hut built by Zhang Laodao.
It was midsummer at this time, but the mountain breeze on the viewing platform was gentle, and I only felt cool and comfortable, not hot. Zhao Ran stood on the bank of the cliff, looking at the red clouds in the sky and the green mountains. He couldn't help but feel relaxed and happy, and he was forced to stay away.
The depression of going to Western Sichuan dissipated in an instant, and suddenly I didn’t think it was a bad thing anymore. Instead, I was slightly looking forward to it - I wonder if the war scenes in this world are grand? Is it impressive? Well, if the monks’ spells are added
Can he enjoy a visual feast with his magic power? - His psychological self-healing ability is so strong that he can treat it like going to the movies.
After stopping for a moment by the Cloud Observation Platform, he walked up the mountain road again, preparing to go to the Qingtan. As soon as he climbed over the boulder, Zhao Ran was stunned. Three figures actually appeared here.
Zhao Ran has a very good memory. Although he only met once two years ago, he recognized him immediately. One of the lean old men was the Hu family who complained outside the mountain gate two years ago. The one sitting by the hut had slightly darker skin.
But there is an aura of water and a bit of coquettishness in the young woman. Isn't she the daughter of the Hu family? There is also a white-faced boy lying on the edge of the pool catching fish with his hands, seeming to be having a great time.
Zhao Ran estimated that he might be the son of the Hu family who had been injured by Zhang Ze and Jin Jiu.
Zhao Ran couldn't help but was startled. He was just discussing the Hu family's affairs with Jin Jiu, and the person involved appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye. He really said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao were here.
When Old Man Hu saw Zhao Ran, he immediately smiled with a smile on his face. He hunched over and called to his daughter and son: "Chun Niang, Ba Lang, hurry up and pay homage to Taoist Zhao!" There was nothing wrong with what he said, but he couldn't express it in his words and deeds.
It's vulgar and a bit slick, which is unpleasant to watch.
The daughter of the Hu family was very eye-catching. She stood up with her pipa in her arms, congratulated Zhao Ran, and said, "Chun Niang has met Taoist Master Zhao." Her graceful figure moved forward, and her delicate voice spoke out, which immediately made her excited.
Zhao Ran was distracted for a while.
The young man who was playing in the water by the pool was a little reluctant. Old Man Hu grabbed him by the ears and pulled him in front of Zhao Ran, ordering him to salute Zhao Ran. Zhao Ran saw that the young man's face was pale and his body seemed to be extremely weak.
, he coughed more than two or three times after just a few steps, secretly wondering if it was the root of the disease caused by the injuries he received from Zhang Ze and Jin Jiu last time?
The Hu family, father and daughter, saw the ceremony, and Zhao Ran asked: "Old Hu, do you recognize Pindao?"
Old Man Hu hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "I met the Taoist priest outside the mountain gate the year before last. The little old man was screaming for injustice on the mountain for ten months. Only the Taoist priest cared about it and showed pity. He came to see the little old man's petition on the wooden board. The little old man
I remember them all! Later, it was the Taoist priest who gave the little old man advice on how to make a living, and the livelihood of my family of three improved. The little old man always felt deeply in his heart and wanted to thank his benefactor in person, but there was a huge gap between the inside and outside of the Taoist sect.
, the little old man can never find an opportunity..."
Zhao Ran felt bad when he heard it. Didn't Shopkeeper Jin say that he had done it neatly? How could Old Man Hu know about it? In his heart, he secretly complained that Shopkeeper Jin didn't do things well, and he quickly denied it: "This matter
It has nothing to do with me, I didn’t do it.”
Old Man Hu said with a smile: "The Taoist priest does good deeds without leaving his name, and shows kindness without seeking repayment. I know this! Don't worry, Taoist priest, I will never tell anyone about this."
Zhao Ran looked ugly and kept shaking his head in denial. Hu Laoer nodded and said "um", "ah", "I see, this matter has nothing to do with Director Zhao", Hu Chunniang also covered her mouth and snickered,
Seeing this, no matter what Zhao Ran said, they all believed that it was Zhao Ran's hands and feet, so Zhao Ran had no choice but to give up.
Hu Balang had an impatient temper and couldn't stand the gossiping here. He turned around and went to play by the Qingtan, but Hu Laoer held his arm and held on, and then used his hand to pull the torn thatch on the hut. Fortunately, he was
Hu Chunniang stopped him, stretched out her hand and pinched his face to prevent damage to the hut. However, Hu Balang was pinched by his sister and burst into tears.
Zhao Ran frowned as he looked at it, and said to Mr. Hu: "Take care of your house... Well, Balang, right? Don't damage every plant or tree here. This place was built by a senior friend of mine. He has left temporarily now."
Go and come back at some point. He entrusted me to take care of this place. If there is any damage, I will not be able to account for it!"
Hu Lao'er quickly apologized, and Hu Chunniang pulled Hu Balang into another blessing. Her graceful look made Zhao Ran's heart skip a beat.
Zhao Ran knew that Hu Chunniang also sold herself in addition to singing. If he wanted to, he could spend some money to seduce Feng Luan, but he had traveled through time after all. Although the atmosphere in that era was open, prostitution was illegal, so he
A state cadre has never done this kind of thing, so he is very thin-skinned. On the contrary, he is not as relaxed and comfortable as the ancients of this era who visited the brothel.
Reining his mind, Zhao Ran suddenly remembered that this is the back mountain of Wujiyuan. What are these three men doing here?
