Xie Lingya tried her best to maintain a kind expression, broke Xiao Wang's hand, and said, "Sir, did you rest well? I paid you the car wash fee last night. It is against the law to kill someone."
Xiao Wang remembered that he was at the door of the Taoist Temple, he was slightly relieved, and held the door: "You, why are you here..."
"Of course I'm here," Xie Lingya said, "I own this place."
Xiao Wang: "..."
Xiao Wang looked to the side and asked Hai Guanchao, who was standing beside him, for help. Although he didn't know Hai Guanchao, he probably knew better than him when he was standing in Guanchao.
Hai Guanchao nodded slowly: "Don't you know, this is the person in charge of Baoyang Temple."
Xiao Wang was completely dizzy, "Then what were you doing last night?"
Xie Lingya could finally take the opportunity to clarify, "Of course I'll do something! That's the blood of animals, I just don't want to scare you!"
Is that something that moves also a sacrifice? Was the stiffness he saw wrong? Xiao Wang looked at Xie Lingya confusedly, "Then... I'm sorry..."
"It's all right." Xie Lingya almost knew why he came to hold Yangguan, and glanced at Hai Guanchao proudly, which meant that I really didn't bully anyone casually.
Hai Guanchao was speechless and asked him, "Are you going out again? Fang Zhe just said that their research has made progress."
"How much has the scope narrowed this time? Let's talk about it when I get back. I'll help people take care of the children." Xie Lingya told him to take the monk to buy clothes and left.
Hai Guanchao stood on the spot and pondered for a long time, thinking that this guy had enough friends, he taught Taoist priests to do things, and brought monks to buy clothes.
When Xie Lingya returned to the pedestrian street, he saw several people surrounded by a place, and passersby looked around, but did not dare to stop and watch. He took a closer look, and there seemed to be a bald head between the shoulders of those people, like Tan Qing, and walked over.
I saw that Shi Changxuan was protecting the little monk and confronting those people.
"What is this for?" Xie Lingya asked.
The two of them were all young people in their twenties and thirties, five or six people. They were quite strong, but they were a little airy. It was no wonder that passersby didn't dare to watch.
Those people glanced at Xie Lingya, "Why, together? Who are you this little bald guy?"
Xie Lingya listened to them opening and closing their mouths, the little bald man, and said politely: "Where are you monsters and ghosts?"
Shi Changxuan explained to Xie Lingya in a few words that these people were riding their bicycles on the street, and when they bumped into Tanqing, they were about to run away. Who knew that Tanqing was still very strong, and he grabbed his clothes and dragged him from the car. , scratched on the ground. They don't stop, ready to "theory".
Xie Lingya looked at the so-called scratches, no flesh was hurt, but the pants were dirty.
Tan Qing is good at discriminating Buddhism, but he doesn't know much about the terms of young people. Tan Qing didn't understand what they said just now.
Shi Changxuan was not a talkative person either, these people thought they had the upper hand just now.
If they had started early, they would have been brought down by the time Xie Lingya arrived.
Xie Lingya said indifferently: "You bumped into people and didn't apologize. He pulled you and caused you to fall. It's a tie, so there's nothing to worry about."
"Can I be the same when I fall?" the young man said, "Why, the little bald man is so strong, is he a Shaolin monk?"
His friends laughed too, as if "Warrior Monk" was a particularly funny joke.
Although Xie Lingya hadn't seen the scene just now, he knew that Lian Tan had learned swordsmanship, and when he was a sword-wielding fairy, he was very strong. A generation without the power to bind a chicken.
If these people think they can take advantage of others, they are wrong.
But Xie Lingya didn't want to do anything with people unless it was necessary.
Seeing Xie Lingya's strange expression, the young man said, "Tell you, I just got a phone call from a dozen brothers, believe it or not?"
Xie Lingya suddenly showed a weird smile, which made the young man a hair.
Seeing that they were all very young, Xie Lingya asked, "Do you think I look familiar?"
He didn't say anything, but as soon as he said it, the few people looked at each other, and one of them said, "It seems to be a bit familiar..."
"Who is this? Could it be a star?"
The young man said angrily: "Listen to what he is talking about! I don't care whether you are familiar or not!"
Someone behind him pulled him, "No, brother, I remembered it, I really saw him, and on the Internet, he seems to be the person in charge of holding Yangguan."
The young man was stunned and said, "Are you sick, people from Taoist temples go shopping with monks?"
Everyone: "… "
"No, no, he seems to have worked with the monk..."
Xie Lingya interrupted them and asked, "I made a phone call, and a dozen Taoists came. Believe it or not? And it's definitely faster than you."
—Baoyang Temple is just at the entrance of Pedestrian Street, you don’t need to walk for five minutes.
Everyone: "..."
This sentence is too familiar, and the young man's face is blue and white for a while, "You, you..."
Xie Lingya pointed at Tanqing and said, "With another phone call, dozens of his senior brothers also came. Believe it or not?"
Youth: "..."
It seems impossible to call Taoist priests and monks to fight in a group, but the young man could not help shrinking when he met Xie Lingya's eyes.
The young man looked at him with a gloomy expression before he said angrily, "Be careful next time!"
After saying that, he led the person to turn around and left, feeling a little depressed in his heart. Why haven't he heard that monks have such a hot temper before.
Xie Lingya turned his head again and saw Shi Changxuan staring at him helplessly, and said with a smile, "I scare them."
Who are the little hooligans to scare, just be glad that he wants to guarantee the image of holding Yangguan now.
Shi Changxuan shook his head, not to mention him.
Xie Lingya patted Tanqing's shoulder, "How is it, there is no problem, right? You have to tell them, and ask them to pay for the medical expenses."
Tanqing shook his head, "I'm fine. Mr. Xie, if they didn't agree with me just now, would you really call a dozen Taoist priests?"
"I took their words against them," Xie Lingya said with a haha, "Of course I'm... calling the police."
The policemen at this police station know him, after all, they have taken the pennant.
…
The few young people who were looking for trouble with Tanqing muttered and walked out of the street in a depressing way. They bought a drink at a beverage shop and thought, "The more I think about it, the more I think that person is scaring us, otherwise, we... ?"
"What do you want?"
"I don't know where the monks are. The Taoist temple is right on the street. Every day, people go to fetch water. Otherwise, let's get some cement and fill their wells? Why don't we create some paintings and calligraphy on the door?"
"Uh... No, I heard that this Taoist temple is a bit evil, so don't get into the Taoist temple."
While we were discussing, we went out of the street and crossed the road. There were flowers and trees in the flower beds in the middle of the road. A few people didn't bother to turn to the zebra crossing and went directly through the flower beds.
The first man's foot, for some reason, hooked on the root of the tree, and then he jumped forward and planted it on the soil.
The first two people took a step forward to help him up, but as a result, they slipped, not only did they not help him up, but they both fell on top of him. The remaining two laughed, but a tricycle galloped behind them, wiped them forward, and walked away.
Five people are eating mud together, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know who to blame.
Xie Lingya sent Tanqing back to the hotel, and Liecuo told him apologetically, "We have a lot of monks, and we can't find them for a while, sorry."
"No, no, you don't need to apologize. I'm asking for help. Thank you for your willingness to help check." Xie Lingya hurriedly said.
Everyone had a meal together again, and made an appointment to inform us when there was news. Xie Lingya and Shi Changxuan went back to Baoyang Temple, and as soon as they entered the door, they heard Fang Zhe's device beeping and calling the police, "Why, how much has it narrowed down? "
"Probably a province... But now I wonder if something went wrong, because it keeps alarming." FangZhe turned off the device in a hurry, "Even if it's really within a province, it's not so bad. stop."
Xie Lingya stared at his device for a while, thinking that it wouldn't be so coincidental, would the son of Youdu be in Queshan Province
He felt inexplicably tight in his heart, and he thought of the inexplicable tantric master, and he didn't know if there was a connection between them, but the son of Youdu should be a Taoist system, born in the mountain of Youdu, which is entrusted to Kunlun Mountain.
This thought only flashed by, Xie Lingya simply went to put incense sticks on the patriarch and uncle, copied the scriptures in the hall for a while, and then he felt more at ease and went back to his room to sleep.
The weather was a bit cold, Xie Lingya turned on the electric blanket to warm up his body, and huddled in the quilt to think about things.
The winter vacation will be over in a few days, and the Spring Festival will follow, and the Taoist temple is busy again. Shi Changxuan's parents should also mention that this year, maybe they will meet their parents...
Xie Lingya thought about it and fell asleep.
In the dream, he took a lot of winter vacation homework, and the Taoist temple was also very busy with sundries, and he had to meet various inspections, so he was too busy. His father was complaining about his relationship with Shi Changxuan again. He called him home and asked the neighbors to introduce him to girls, trying to straighten him up. There are also Shi Changxuan's parents, who are also very dissatisfied with him, and hope that Shi Changxuan can find a female Taoist priest...
Xie Lingya woke up with a start, and the feeling of being overwhelmed still seemed to haunt him.
He sat up and took a few breaths, only to realize that fine sweat was on his back.
Yes, the Taoist Temple is really annoying. There are so many things to deal with. Not all tourists are qualified, and not all Taoist priests are talented. I don’t know how long it takes to save money to expand. It is also quite difficult to apply for cooperation from the government. . In such a career, there are more and more courses to be learned in life, and parents are so inconsiderate, when will they be the best
Depressed, Xie Lingya got up and put on cotton slippers. He didn't approve of his coat, so he pushed open the door and went out, standing in the corridor to blow air.
The night wind was so cold that Xie Lingya was a little stunned when he went out.
In the whole Baoyang Temple, except for a vegetable field in the backyard and some potted flowers and plants in the front yard, only a circle of bamboos were planted around the wall, and there were no trees.
However, at this moment, layers of green leaves can be seen on the top of the courtyard wall. During the period, a string of red flowers are hidden, spread out in large patches, as if the whole Baoyang Temple is surrounded by the outside world, and no other buildings can be seen.
Those red flowers are dazzling and charming, and I don't know what species...
Xie Lingya suddenly forgot why there were so many flowers and trees outside the wall. Although the flowers were beautiful, they were even more annoying in his eyes. He thought of all the bad things in life, and even the few social youths he bumped into on the pedestrian street during the day. I wondered why I didn't beat them up at that time.
The feeling of boredom was stagnant in his heart, which made Xie Lingya feel like he wanted to vomit. He leaned on the railing and looked down. The height of these several floors made him want to jump down a bit, and he was over a hundred.
Xie Lingya stared at the bottom in a daze, and it was at this moment that a cock crowing came from his ear.
"Oooooooh-"
Although there was a long distance, it was like a thunderbolt in Xie Lingya's ears.
He woke up suddenly, and felt an unpleasant stench in his nose, which made him almost vomit, and immediately covered his mouth and nose. At the same time, Liu Lingtong's eager calling came into his mind, and the thin voice just couldn't wake him up. Looking at it again, the good dragon was rolling on the ground, as if it was also because of the stench.
The stench was indescribable, like a hundred years of garbage, and like a mass grave on a hot day, arousing all kinds of troubles in people's minds.
Xie Lingya smelled it for a while before confirming that the smell came from the nameless flower trees outside the wall. Because the gap was too big, he couldn't believe that such a beautiful flower could emit such a stench.
The worries in his heart were still aroused, Xie Lingya felt bad in his heart, and he didn't know if anyone else was affected. He looked up and down, fortunately no one fell from the bottom of the building, so he immediately went to the next door and knocked on the door. , wake people up.
Shi Changxuan's face turned pale, he held the door and covered his mouth and nose - he was not confused, but when he woke up from the dream, he smelled the stench, which was unbearable.
They tried to wake the others, but most of them seemed to be in a nightmare.
Xie Lingya knew that the nightmare had been going on for a long time, and he might have the same idea of jumping off the building as he did just now, but he woke up, and others might sleepwalk out.
"What the hell is this!" Xie Lingya said with an ugly face, "Is it an illusion?"
Shi Changxuan hesitated, but he couldn't be sure what he wanted to say, and the two hurried downstairs.
The red flowers outside the wall rustled, Shi Changxuan saw the petals clearly, closed his eyes and recalled for a while before saying, "The Inabalu tree, the stinking tree of troubles."
In other words, this tree is trouble. What they see is not a tree, but the illusion of trouble.
Xie Lingya murmured, "Inabalu tree..."
Shi Changxuan said: "This is Sanskrit, you may feel a little strange."
Inapala symbolizes troubles, and the more familiar sandalwood symbolizes Bodhi. Yes, this is the way of Buddhism.
Xie Lingya also understood Sanskrit when he heard it, but he thought: "... There were so many Taoists in Hongyang back then, did you find out if there were any fish that slipped through the net?"
The Inaba Luoshu reminded him of the corpse forest that he encountered when he was investigating the Hongyang Dao, all of which were distorted from Buddhist teachings, and he had nothing to do with the Tantric monks.
Back then, Xie Lingya destroyed the spirit body of the old mother, and if the remnants of Hongyang Dao wanted to take revenge, he was the right one.
Those Daoist Hongyang people have penetrated many places, and Shi Changxuan did not dare to deny 100% if there were one or two fish that slipped through the net. And from the starting point, there are indeed some possibilities.
Xie Lingya was thinking, and suddenly heard a few screams and vomiting, but it was not from inside the Taoist temple, but from outside the Taoist temple.
His heart shuddered, and the three treasured swords were drawn out, "The sun shines brightly, the moon shines brightly, sweeps away the vicious, and all evils perish. True officials and officials, Weibuigang, Fashui Sibu, all blessings come!"
Xie Lingya picked the Three Treasures Sword a few times in the water tank where lotus flowers were kept in the courtyard and raised the water.
The splash of water, like broken jade, also contains Dao power, sprinkled on the flowers outside the wall, but it has no effect, but seems to nourish them, the red flowers bloom more vividly, and the stench is more obvious.
Xie Lingya could hardly breathe in this smell. Seeing the peach wood sword in his hand, he suddenly had an epiphany and said to Shi Changxuan, "I see, you look at it."
Shi Changxuan originally covered his mouth and nose, calmed his mind, and looked at Xie Lingya after hearing what Xie Lingya said.
I saw Xie Lingya holding the Three Treasures Sword with a sword flower, pointing to the east, closing his eyes and remembering: "The fiery wind is steaming, and the four scenes are enlightened. I worship the true God and serve all spirits. Nine days of edicts, quickly manifest!"
With a clear drink, a gust of east wind wafted pale pink petals from outside the wall, and the almost imperceptible sweet fragrance broke the stench of Inabalu flowers. It was clearly a soft petal, and it was like a blade, cutting the Inabalu tree into pieces.
A petal lightly landed on Xie Lingya's pale pink lips, and he opened his eyes—the body was covered with petals.
Shi Changxuan was suffocated and looked at him intently.
Xie Lingya smiled and said, "Peach blossoms destroy evil."
Both are red, but Inabalo is bloody red and emits a stench. Peach blossoms are sweet and light red, and are traditionally used to ward off evil spirits. The spellcasters are different from ordinary people. They use water to break the flowers, but nourish them. The Taoist peach blossoms break the Buddhist evil trees, but they have miraculous effects.
The phantom of the Inabalu tree has disappeared, and the peach petals have also fallen on the ground in the view, all over the place.
And the peach tree on the road flower bed, which is less than 100 meters away from Baoyang Temple, was inadvertently urged in late winter, and a tree of yinghua was inadvertently swayed, leaving only the lonely stamens.
The flowering period that disappeared in an instant, the vitality that suddenly bloomed, dispelled all evil spirits.
Shi Changxuan brushed the peach blossoms off Xie Lingya's head, couldn't help holding his cheeks, and lowered his head.
Xie Lingya: "Senior brother—"
Shi Changxuan's heart was hot, but he was so impulsive that he didn't have time to take Xie Lingya's shyness to stop him, and kissed him on the lips.
Xie Lingya's lips also seemed to have the sweetness that the peach blossoms had rubbed off. Shi Changxuan held his shoulders and kissed deeply for a few seconds before he pulled away and let go.
Xie Lingya looked sluggish: "..."
When Shi Changxuan saw his expression clearly, he felt that something was wrong, and immediately turned around.
I saw from the first floor to the top floor, I don't know when all the Taoist priests and personnel stood in the corridor, all of them holding the railings and looking in this direction dully.
Shi Changxuan: "..."
"Fuck, I don't believe it, you really aren't using magic to play romance?" Hai Guanchao said.
They were also troubled by the Inabalu tree. They went out one by one and were awakened by the peach blossoms. As soon as they woke up, before they could ask what happened, they saw Teacher Xie and Daochang Shi kissing and Haiguan in the courtyard. The tide can't stop it.
Xie Lingya was lying on the table, "We are crazy. We got up in the middle of the night and threw flower petals to fall in love. Didn't you smell bad after you woke up?"
Hai Guanchao said to himself, "I thought it was the stench of love..."
Xie Lingya: "…"
He was very depressed. Originally, he took care of his father's mood, so he didn't plan to come out of the closet. As a result, everyone saw it accidentally... Why do they have any negative buffs on them? Seen every time!
The others were fine, and because of Xie Lingya's vicious name, they didn't dare to do anything. After witnessing the kissing of his respected teacher Xie, Senior Brother Shi, the simple and innocent stayed for a long time without speaking.
Fang Zhe took the initiative to take on the task of persuading, and went to find a small chat.
After a while, Xiao Liang came over with red eyes and said to Xie Lingya, "Mr. Xie... It's really not easy for you and your brother, I, I support you!"
Xie Lingya: "…Thank you?"
He whispered to Fang Che, "What did you tell him?"
Fang Zhe also said in a low voice, "You have sold a lot of misery for you."
Xie Lingya: "Can this be sold? My dad is broken!"
FangZhe: "…"
Xiaoliang is so innocent, Xie Lingya raised his head and smiled at him again, seeing Xiaoliang's distressed face, a little black line. When I think about it, I feel as if I have forgotten something, and I can't remember it for a while.
…
Of course, worse than those who were hit by Baoyangguan, were the young people who came to Baoyangguan last night to try to do something after being scolded by Xie Lingya.
This morning, they were found collapsed in a pool of vomit, their belts were loose, and there were streaks on their necks. They were rescued by tea customers who came to fetch water early in the morning, thinking it was a suicide attempt.
Xie Lingya screamed when he heard someone say that someone fainted outside, remembering what he had forgotten last night, he said that he heard the screams of passers-by last night.
Fortunately, as soon as I went out, I found that the so-called passers-by were a few hooligans who were looking for trouble for Tan Qing on the pedestrian street yesterday.
As soon as the young people woke up, they said in horror that they saw a few trees here last night and wanted to climb over the wall, but they smelled a foul odor, and then somehow wanted to hang themselves... I don't remember what happened after that.
Xie Lingya pushed aside the crowd and asked in his pocket, "Did you want to climb in last night?"
Young people: "..."
As soon as they saw Xie Lingya, they felt very guilty, stammered and couldn't speak, they simply turned over and ran away with a filth.
The rest of the people were inexplicable, "Are these hooligans talking nonsense or hallucinations, there are no trees inside and outside the walls, but the peach blossoms in the flower beds on the road seemed to bloom last night."
That's right, the attention of the onlookers was suddenly diverted, and no one cared about those young people who were screaming and sloppy.
Last night, all the peach blossoms in the vicinity bloomed and fell. Everyone had not seen the peach blossoms in full bloom. When they woke up, there was only one place where they fell. Beautiful is beautiful, but incomprehensible.
People who get up for work in the morning pass by, and they can't help but take pictures, both puzzled and surprised.
"Could it be that the warm weather some time ago made the peach blossoms think that the flowering period is coming, and they opened early, only to be knocked down by the sudden drop in temperature last night?"
Let's discuss.
Someone looked at Xie Lingya, "Xiao Xie, do you think this is the case?"
Xie Lingya folded his arms and smiled, looking at the flowers falling all over the floor, although no one saw the youthful blossoms on their branches, but...
He smiled softly: "Everything has animism, maybe they bloomed last night because they went out of their way."
Everyone burst into laughter, "It's really interesting for young people to talk, what good things can Peach Blossom do, shouldn't it help people fall in love?"
Xie Lingya: "...hehehe."
