Xiao Jin made a fuss about cheating the Taoist priest for money, and finally felt that the journey was a little fun, but after ten minutes, the fun turned into annoyance again.

She didn't like mountain climbing in the first place, and she hated those cultural relics even more. The two of them went back and forth without bothering her, but she couldn't take it anymore.

At this moment, she is acting like a baby to her sister for the fifth time: "Sister, let's go, I'm starving to death!"

"It's eleven o'clock, it's time for lunch!"

"There is a restaurant over there. I heard that the whitebait here is very delicious. If you don't hurry up, there will be no seats."

"sister… "

Let her mushrooms come and go, Xiao Zhai was unmoved, Gu Yu looked pitifully, and comforted: "There is only one place left, we will eat after we finish."

"When you're done, I'm either starving or bored to death... Eh?"

Xiao Jin muttered, suddenly pulled Gu Yu away, ran to a distance and whispered: "Brother, you can't do this! Take her down quickly, and you will become the head of the household. Doesn't she have to listen to you?"

"Please, how can I get it?"

The guy had a bitter face, and asked a series of rhetorical questions: "Even if I win, can I be the head of the household? Even if I become the head of the household, she can listen to me? It's not like you don't know your sister's temper."

"Brother, do you have a little ambition?"

Xiao Jin hurriedly encouraged her, and said bluntly, "In this way, we will be a front alliance in the future. If you have any information you need, just ask me, and I will sell it if I can!"

"Well… "

He deliberately refused, but he couldn't resist the temptation, so he acquiesced.

"That's a deal, come on!"

Xiao Jin stretched out her fist and touched the opponent.

Of course, Xiongzi has her own thoughts. She is going to university in Jiangzhou, but her family wants to return to Shengtian to work in the future. Since you are in a city, you must be oppressed, so it is OK to find a helper.

The two of them were whispering, but Xiao Zhai had no time to answer.

The overall layout of Shangzhen Temple is very clear. Taking Sanmao Hall, Sanqing Pavilion, and Caishen Hall as the central axis, it is divided into three areas, and each area is distributed with some sub-buildings, such as Guandi Hall, Wenchang Hall and so on.

They had visited most of the sights and were about to step through a double wooden door into the last place.

At this moment, Xiao Qing, who had been hiding in an unknown place, suddenly poked her head out from her shoulders, spitting out a letter in a "sizzling" voice. Xiao Zhai was rather strange, scratched its chin, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sizzling!"

Xiaoqing stared at the wooden door, as if there was an aura inside that made her very uncomfortable.

"You two, come back!"

When she saw her, she immediately waved her hand.

The two guys ran back, Xiaoqing disappeared with a whoosh. There was no need to explain, Gu Yu knew something was wrong by looking at her expression, so he smiled and said, "Xiao Jin, if you don't like shopping, go to the restaurant, it just happens to take a seat."

"Well, we'll go down in a while." Xiao Zhai continued.

"That's good, I'll order first!"

The girl blinked her eyes, although she felt strange, but she didn't ask any more questions, she fled away on her own.

They didn't cross the threshold until she disappeared.

Inside the door is a courtyard with green brick pavement, neat and clean. An old tree is planted in the southeast corner, under the tree are stone tables and chairs. There is also a building in the middle, with a horizontal plaque hanging on it, with the words Tianshidian written on it. There are side halls on the left and right, and there are three houses behind, which should be places for accommodation.

There is no one in the courtyard, with a sense of tranquility.

As soon as they lifted their feet and entered the main hall, they saw a flash of blue light. However, Xiaoqing couldn't bear it anymore, and she appeared directly, wrapped around her master's arm and restless.

"It seems to be afraid?" Gu Yu wondered.

"There should be something special here." Xiao Zhai frowned.

The two of them looked around and saw that the inside of the hall was very simple, with only altars, altars, lanterns and other utensils, and on the altar was the statue of Master Zhang. In front of the statue is an incense burner, with three sticks of incense sticking out, and green smoke curling up.

Gu Yu turned around, and suddenly pointed at a place: "Where are you looking?"

Xiao Zhai took a look, but there was a yellow talisman stuck on the door frame. The talisman was simple, like a thread spiraling down. She took a step, and sure enough, Xiaoqing became more and more irritable, and Xinzi kept trembling.

Gu Yu stepped forward, pressed his fingers lightly on it, and said for a moment: "I can feel a special aura." He considered it for a while, and then said: "Like Taoism is not Taoism, it seems to use some special method to stimulate Yes, it can expel evil spirits... "

"That's right, Shi Liangsheng once went to Longhu Mountain to ask for a talisman, and the successor is here!"

Xiao Zhai's emotions were high. He thought that this trip would be fruitless, but who would have imagined it. But the green snake couldn't take it anymore, and pitifully asked for the owner's permission, she shook her arm, and the green snake rushed out.

"Cough...cough cough..."

Just as they were about to investigate further, a few coughs came from behind the statue.

Immediately afterwards, a thin old man with a sad face came out. He was taken aback when he saw them, and then greeted them: "I'm neglecting you. I was doing a cleansing in the quiet room just now. Don't be offended."

"The junior has seen the old practice."

Xiao Zhai made another Meridian Jue and gave a salute. Gu Yu didn't belong to the Taoist school, so he did a common Taoist bowing ceremony.

"..."

The old Taoist was stunned at first, then became inexplicable, and also made a meridian formula: "So it's a little fellow Taoist, please come inside."

Immediately, he led the way, and there was a small door behind the statue, leading directly to three houses. Several people entered the guest room and sat upright before the old Taoist asked, "Where do you come from, little friend?"

"The junior is from Shengtian."

"My little friend's surname?"

"Junior Jiang Xiaozhai."

"Xiaoyou Dushi's celestial surname? Which school is the French school?"

"The junior teacher is destined not to be born, please understand."

After she finished answering, she also asked: "The old cultivator's surname? How expensive is it?"

"I am a disciple of the twenty-first generation. My surname is Tan and my name is Chongdai."

"Jiang Xiaozhai met Senior Tan."

So far, this set of traditional etiquette is over. Gu Yu looked at it very strangely. When he first met Mr. Mo, he played all kinds of foolish things, and he was in a hurry.

After an introduction, Tan Chongdai brewed two cups of tea and said, "This is the wild tea I fried myself. It's better than freshness. Try it."

Gu Yu took a sip, it was slightly bitter at first, and when the bitterness entered his throat, it slowly dissipated, giving birth to a different kind of tea fragrance.

"Good tea!" He praised.

"It's really good tea." Xiao Zhai also said.

Tan Chongdai was quite pleased with what he heard, and took a sip himself. He seemed to like the tea very much, the wrinkles on his face were stretched out, and the look of sadness also lightened a lot.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. My place is remote and unknown, and I don't even have incense. I haven't had any guests for many years. You are not very old, but you can see that you have achieved a lot. If you can come to chat with me today, I will be considered a three-year-old." Fortunately."

"Senior's talisman is profound, we must admire it." Xiao Zhai said.

"hehe… "

The old man laughed twice, quite meaningfully.

It was obvious that two unprovoked juniors came to visit rashly, and they must have asked for something. We both know that we may not be able to be kind today, but we just don't talk about it.

After chatting nonsense for a while, Gu Yu suddenly asked: "Old Taoist priest, we just came from the front and met some fake Taoist priests. Where did they come from?"

"well… "

When Tan Chongdai heard this, he couldn't help sighing, and said: "To tell you the truth, the Sanmao Hall, Sanqing Pavilion, Wenchang Hall, and Caishen Hall have all been contracted. They are hired, and they know some Taoist classics. They play tricks all day long." Relying on my successor status, I managed to keep this small courtyard."

"contract?"

The two looked at each other in dismay. Although they had heard similar rumors, it was still amazing to see it with their own eyes. Xiao Zhai asked: "You mean, the inheritance of Shangzhen Temple is only in this hall?"

"..."

Tan Chongdai showed that distressed look again, and said: "What my friend said is that there is only one person left in this hall after the three hundred years of Taoism in Qionglong Mountain."
