Chapter 4, Planting Pears

"This layman, as the saying goes, if you do one good deed every day, you will have blessings.

If you give me a pear as a gift today, you will surely be blessed with blessings in the future!

Besides, there are hundreds of pears in this cart, and Pindao only asks for one from you, so it won’t be a big loss for you, so why not do it?”

But the pear seller didn't agree. Instead, he sneered, "You're a poor guy. If you don't have money, you can't eat pears."

The old Taoist priest's robe was extremely worn and stained with dirt, and he could be considered half a beggar. Therefore, the pear seller did not take him seriously.

At this time, everyone watching around also tried to persuade him.

Seeing this, Chen Hongyu led Heitan to the front and handed over a few copper coins.

"It's just a few possessions, this pear is mine."

When the pear seller heard this, he stopped giving in and quickly took the copper coin from Chen Hongyu's hand, then took a pear and stuffed it into the old Taoist's hand.

He said angrily: "If it weren't for this scholar today, you would never have eaten my pear."

The old Taoist priest took the pear, glanced at Heitan who was looking around, and said with a smile: "You are quite interesting as a scholar. Today you treat me to a pear, and I will give you a favor someday."

After saying that, without waiting for Chen Hongyu's reply, he gnawed on a pear.

This man looked old, but his teeth were very good. In an instant, only the small core of the huge pear was left.

Eat the pear. He smacked his lips with some aftertaste. The Taoist said to the people watching beside him: "People who practice Taoism are not stingy with things. I will treat you to a pear today."

As he spoke, the old man dug a small hole in the ground and buried the fruit core in it.

"Taoist, do you want to plant a pear tree directly?" Someone stood aside to watch the fun.

After looking around, the old Taoist priest smiled and said: "Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, just watch as you like!"

With that said, he walked to the nearby wine shop and wanted to ask for a bowl of water.

The bartender also wanted to watch the fun and deliberately asked: "Can we use hot water?"

"Okay!" the old Taoist priest replied with a smile, poured a bowl of hot water from the top of the pear core, and then he began to close his eyes and meditate.

At this time, Chen Hongyu looked towards the place where the fruit core was, and he could see a green plant breaking through the soil and emerging out of the ground in an instant.

A pear tree seedling appeared where the core was buried.

Take root, sprout, bear fruit.

In just half a quarter of an hour, a huge pear tree appeared in front of us, with branches covered with huge pears, which surprised everyone around.

However, when Chen Hongyu looked towards the pear tree, he could see that the pear tree was just an empty shell that was created by magic power.

As for those pears, they are just an illusion.

At this time, he could see the pears in the pear seller's cart flying out towards the pear tree.

"Be generous to others!" Chen Hongyu shook his head, and a burst of magic power swept out and sent all the pears back to the pear seller's cart.

Although the pear seller is indeed a bit stingy, it is a matter of affection to give something away, and it is a duty not to give something away.

The old Taoist priest was jealous of the pear seller because of just one pear, and wanted to make him lose the cart of pears, but he was a little behind.

"Huh?" The old Taoist priest noticed the magic barrier on the pear seller's car and couldn't help but let out a surprised sound.

He glanced at the crowd and then focused on Chen Hongyu.

"Little fellow Taoist, have your elders in your family ever taught you not to meddle in other people's business when you go out?"

Chen Hongyu nodded and said, "Taught me!"

Hearing his answer, the old Taoist couldn't help but hesitated. He was silent for a few breaths before scolding: "For the sake of that pear earlier, the old Taoist doesn't care about what you did before. Why don't you withdraw the spell quickly?"

"What if I don't withdraw?"

The old Taoist narrowed his eyes and raised the dust in his hands, "Then I want you to see what the sky is and how high it is!"

Obviously, he was a little angry and wanted to teach this junior monk a lesson, who in his opinion was a little ignorant.

Seeing this, Chen Hongyu no longer hesitated, and the spiritual consciousness in his body swept out and pressed hard towards the old Taoist priest.

There was only a "pop" sound, and the old Taoist priest went limp and sat on the ground, sweating profusely and in a miserable state.

"I don't know which family the senior is from, but it's the junior Meng Lang!" The old Taoist priest also simply admitted his mistake when he saw that he was being taught how to behave directly.

"Follow me!" Chen Hongyu waved his hand, destroying the pear tree spell, and then pulled Heitan directly towards the outside of the city, with the old Taoist priest following behind him.

"This scholar is so powerful, how could he have completed cultivation so vigorously at such a young age?" The old Taoist cursed in his heart, but followed closely behind him.

Just kidding, the consciousness in front has been locked on his body, and if he has the slightest intention of leaving, he may lose his life.

"What's your name?" Chen Hongyu asked.

"Min Zhi." The old Taoist priest replied.

"I came to Dongling Mansion for the first time, and I didn't know the territory of this place. I originally wanted to find someone with similar strength to inquire about it, but I happened to meet you teasing the pear seller." As Chen Hongyu spoke, he made it up for himself.

An excuse.

When Min Zhi heard this, his old face was a little embarrassed, but he still hurriedly asked: "I don't know what information senior needs to find out. I have been practicing in Dongling Mansion for decades, and all the forces are very aware of it."

"It seems that this old Taoist priest really found the right one!" Chen Hongyu sighed in his heart and asked Na Min Zhi to explain the situation of the practice world in Dongling Mansion.

"So that the seniors know that the most powerful person in Dongling Mansion is the Dongling Mansion City God. He is a powerful earth god who has received the Divine Court Talisman. Although he is under the jurisdiction of Longting, the scene in this Dongling Mansion

Three-thirds of the way up, it is extremely powerful.

Under the city god is the ghost market owner who opened the ghost market in Lanruo Temple.

These gods and ghosts are the two largest forces in Dongling Mansion.

As for other forces, they are also under these two families, and then there are some other casual cultivators and the like."

"The ghost market should be where all the cultivation forces gather." Chen Hongyu thought in his mind and asked again, "Where is the ghost market?"

Min Zhi said quickly: "The Baiyun Temple is forty miles south of Dongling City.

When I first came to Dongling Mansion, the Baiyun Temple was still very popular. Unfortunately, it suddenly suffered a disaster, and all its disciples died overnight.

The Taoist temples that used to be prosperous in the past have become neglected and turned into ghost markets. Now they are a place where demons, monsters and monks in Dongling Prefecture gather and trade."

Speaking of this, Min Zhi said again: "I heard a piece of news from others earlier. It is said that the owner of the ghost market was originally suppressed in Baiyun Temple. Once he escaped from the trap, he cut off the Baiyun Temple Taoism.

They also occupied the Baiyunguan ruins and opened a ghost market."

After hearing this, Chen Hongyu became a little interested.

"Min Zhi, how about you come with me to that ghost market?"

Although the ghost market is not the largest force in Dongling Mansion, it is a trading place for all kinds of ghosts and monks in Tangling Mansion.

With his current status, it would be okay to go to the black market, but going to the City God would make him uncomfortable.
