They seemed to be very satisfied with the performance of the cigarettes, and their faces showed joy.
Then I thought about it, and the currency that the other party mentioned that would be used by practitioners is merit ingots.
It seems that this incense is also one of the ways their Taoist temple makes this kind of merit money.
These two little Taoist priests were more shrewd than he imagined. They took advantage of this rule that could not be refused and desperately searched for all the benefits they could earn for their Taoist temple.
But considering that his family didn't lose anything, Mai Fan didn't intend to care about it.
After they finished offering incense, they looked at the two Taoist priests, one big and one small, waiting quietly for them to make arrangements for the follow-up.
Probably the incense provided by Mai Fan and his group was large and sufficient.
The little Taoist priests who felt they had taken advantage should not give Mai Fan and others such poor treatment.
They made a sincere invitation to Mai Fan and others and invited them to have dinner with their master in the side hall.
Since Mai Fan and his party had already paid for their stay, the Taoist temple would naturally entertain them for the dinner.
Under the leadership of these two young Taoist priests, everything was normal on the way to the side hall at first. But when they arrived at the canteen where they ate, everyone realized that there seemed to be something strange about the canteen of this Taoist temple.
The dining hall is divided into two sides. On one side, you can see the seats where ordinary people sit, normal benches, and a small square table. Several plates and bowls have been arranged on it, with mosquito-proof and fly-proof ones.
It was covered with a hood, and it looked like the food had been packed inside.
But on the other side is a long wooden board, inlaid on the wall, which is about as high as a person's chest. On the wall close to the cloth-headed board, there is a circular in every other section.
The window, I don’t know what the window is for, but it’s a bit awkward when it appears in the dining area.
Because everyone knows that this is by no means a window for serving food.
The place where people actually eat and serve food is at the other side of the canteen.
There is a half-open window in that place, from which you can see the connected back kitchen.
There is still a pot of rice that is smoking white, sitting on the stove. It is probably that whoever in the dining hall doesn't have enough to eat can add more from there.
So what exactly are these windows for?
Just when everyone started to speculate, a voice suddenly came from the back door of the dining hall.
"Is everyone here?"
"Let's eat when we're all here."
As the words fell, the curtain of the back door was lifted, and an old Taoist priest walked in from the back door with an air of immortality.
He knew that all the guests here had arrived, but this did not prevent him from looking at Mai Fan and his group curiously.
After looking at the looks of several people, he nodded slightly and took a step ahead of everyone else, sitting on the main table where he was dining.
As if he was no longer interested in the good and evil of Mai Fan and others, he nodded and told his two young apprentices: "Invite everyone to eat, and let Lao Xing bring the food."
"The little ones over there are also hungry."
The master spoke, and several apprentices began to work.
They moved Mai Fan and others to their seats and placed the bowls and chopsticks in front of everyone.
At this time, Mai Fan and his party finally learned that there was a fourth person in this Taoist temple, that is, the person named Lao Xing.
This person looks and feels completely different from the three Taoist priests.
He was also wearing a Taoist robe, but it gave him the inexplicable feeling of being a handyman.
What he did later allowed Mai Fan and others to confirm the identity of Lao Xing.
He served the guests and the three Taoist priests in the back kitchen. After the rice in everyone's bowls had risen, the man returned to the back kitchen.
"Eat."
After the master spoke, the young apprentice happily opened the cover in the middle of the big table.
Four dishes and one soup were placed under the bamboo fence.
Looking at the quality and ingredients of these dishes, it can be seen that Lao Xing is a good cook.
It's probably been a long time since I had such a sumptuous dinner, and this little junior brother also had a smile on his face.
When the fence is lifted, it is equivalent to the beginning of dinner.
Mai Fan had conducted some tests on these foods before, and he believed that his teammates would not give up their own methods to check the quality of these foods.
After confirming that these things were not dangerous, the group of people ate quickly. Not to mention, Lao Xing's craftsmanship was really good.
Even though it was just four ordinary home-cooked dishes and a big bowl of egg drop soup taken away, every dish was so delicious that it could swallow other people's tongues. They were considered top-notch among the home-cooked dishes they had eaten.
The person who commented most highly on this was the owner of Sifang Cuisine. As a gourmet, his favorite thing is to eat delicious food from all over the world.
Just one meal made the owner of Private Kitchen praise Lao Xing's cooking skills. He was still thinking that if the people in this area could break free, he would definitely find a way to dig Lao Qin over.
He works as a chef in his shop.
A few people were immersed in eating, but they saw a clanking sound coming from the kitchen, and Lao Xing actually opened the door and came over.
In fact, just come over. He is from here, so he can come over to eat. But the problem is, he still has these chains in his hands, and there is something tied to the other end of the chains that Mai Fan and the others would never expect.
The appearance of these things made Mai Fan and others feel wary and immediately stopped eating.
No, there is nothing we can do now, because these things are things that Mai Fan and the others are very familiar with. They just came out of that gathering place.
Yes, there are a group of zombies tied to the chains behind Lao Xing's hand.
There were about seven or eight zombies in this group, and one of them was one that Mai Fan and the others were particularly familiar with, the unlucky guy who had just come out of the cave and was being followed.
Now, the zombie was a little ignorant, with a chain hanging around its neck, and was being led out like a puppy. The zombies who used to command calmly from all directions in the previous area, now that they are here, are being treated differently.
It's really sad to see it weakened like this.
Mai Fan and the others stopped, but the three Taoist priests around Mai Fan were not surprised.
They greeted these guests and continued eating.
"Guests don't need to worry, these are zombies we raised at the venue."
"They don't eat here either, so they won't disturb the guests."
While these Taoist priests were greeting each other, Lao Xing had already dragged the zombies to the other side.
Only then did everyone understand what the row of wooden lattice and circular windows were for.
Lao Xing first untied the chains one by one and fixed one end to the handle on the side of the round window.
