Part-Time Taoist Priest

Xie Lingya was very angry at first, this ghost pretended to be Luo Xiaojun in order to deceive the priest, which made them busy all day, but after the ghost told the whole story, he was left speechless.

Ghosts, like people, are full of strange things, bullying the weak and fearing the hard, there are fierce ghosts, there are also stupid ghosts, and there are ghosts who are afraid of death like Ding Aima.

There are still intrigues and intrigues between ghosts and ghosts. What is the big difference between them and the human world? No wonder Ding Aima is unwilling to reincarnate.

"Stop howling, you don't think about it yourself, if the method of ghost worshiping lamps works, what will the old ghost trade with you? You have already forced people to make offerings to him. Besides, you poor mine manager Bai did something wrong again. What?" Xie Lingya taught the middle-aged male ghost.

The middle-aged male ghost didn't dare to howl any more. He was terrified by Xie Lingya's beating, and lay on the ground trembling, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I sincerely know I was wrong."

Seeing his cowardice, Xie Lingya thought about how to deal with this. He hesitated and asked Shi Changxuan: "Is it not good for me to cut him off?"

After all, this guy didn't do any evil, he has a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and he is really... stupid, no wonder he hasn't had enough to eat for more than ten years.Even though Xie Lingya was so cruel, he still hesitated.

The middle-aged male ghost was frightened to death, lying on the ground and begging: "No, master, please let me go, I really dare not!"

Shi Changxuan has been in this business much longer than Xie Lingya, and he told Xie Lingya that usually they are directly rescued.

"Wow, that didn't make him cheap, he even threatened me." Xie Lingya was concerned.

Shi Changxuan: "..."

Xie Lingya is different from traditional Taoist priests. As long as the ghosts are not obstinate and harmful, Taoist priests usually focus on superseding, let the ghosts wash away their grievances and realize their mistakes, and the rest is the business of the gods.

Xie Lingya, on the other hand, was more concerned with what was in front of him, and whether he was happy or not.

He looked at the middle-aged male ghost for a long time, and suddenly remembered that Ding Aima was sending him a message at the door, and he had a flash of inspiration and said, "Well, I will feed you a meal tomorrow, and then you go back with me, and work on our street at night." Patrol. I see that you have really reformed yourself, and I will save you at the next Fa conference."

Shi Changxuan couldn't help but look sideways.

The middle-aged male ghost didn't know if he had never seen this kind of master before, so he was stunned for a moment. Just when Xie Lingya thought that this condition was so difficult to accept, the male ghost began to cry: "Are you really going to feed me tomorrow?" What to eat..."

Xie Lingya: "..."

This guy was also very hungry, and he heard the word "eat".

Xie Lingya picked him up to instill him again, and he nodded again and again, as long as he was given food, why wouldn't he be willing.

Only then was Xie Lingya satisfied, and asked for his information again.The name of this ghost is Qin Limin. He was originally from Fuyang. He died about 19 years ago. Due to an accidental death, he became a lonely ghost who could not be reincarnated and wandered around the world.

Since it was all a misunderstanding caused by Qin Limin's troubles, it really had nothing to do with Luo Xiaojun. He should have died by accident. The mine was already wet, and his foot slipped and fell to the coal drop.It's just that the people in the mine have been suspicious of Feng Shui for a long time, so they are paranoid about everything.

Also because of the accidental death, Luo Xiaojun's ghost couldn't accept it, and now he is still climbing up the mine, but that's all.It may scare people, but Luo Xiaojun is unconscious.

……

The next day, Xie Lingya went to see Mine Manager Bai again, but before he could speak, Mine Manager Bai said: "Last night I dreamed of a skinny man who bowed to me, and after waking up this morning, I feel refreshed. "

He had been ill because of ghost encounters, and he was still resting at home after being discharged from the hospital.

When the Bai mine manager saw the ghost, it was all a black shadow, but what he said was right with Qin Limin, Xie Lingya was surprised for a moment and nodded, it seemed that Qin Limin went to apologize, so he explained the whole story to him clearly .

Mine Manager Bai opened his mouth a little bit when he heard it. He was a staunch atheist before. Even though he saw a ghost once, he didn't expect there to be so many bells and whistles in it, and he even tricked ghosts out.

"So, my suggestion is that there is no need to move the building, and there is no need to do the dojo for three days and three nights. It is enough to hold a three-hour transcendence ceremony, and send Luo Xiaojun away, as well as other ghosts of the Liuhe Mine." After Xie Lingya finished speaking, he added, "Of course, let's recalculate the remuneration, it doesn't need that much."

In the urban area of ​​Fuyang, the ordinary super-delivery ceremony is about a few thousand yuan.In the mining area, it will give more, but only tens of thousands of yuan.

Previously, Yishui Mining promised to give 15 yuan, but now Xie Lingya took the initiative to reduce the price, and Mine Manager Bai was a little surprised.

Mine Manager Bai only thought for a moment, then said: "I will pay Mr. Xie [-] yuan, please do a transcendence, and sell a sample magic weapon to the new building in town."

It took two or three seconds for Xie Lingya to react, and then quickly nodded: "Okay, Mine Manager Bai, don't worry, I have a pair of stone lions, which are just right in front of the door."

The two looked at each other with tacit smiles in their eyes.

That's right, this building has no Feng Shui problems at all, and Baoyang Temple has no stone lions at all.Xie Lingya's "selling" of this magic weapon was actually just to help Mine Manager Bai calm down the hearts of the people in Liuhe Mine.

Now there are rumors, everyone thinks that the building affected Fengshui and caused the following things. It is useless to simply hold the transcendence ceremony.Simply, I'll just show everyone a show, and I won't have much to say in the future.

……

Xie Lingya performed a simple feeding ceremony in Liuhe Mine. Although it was his first time doing it, he always memorized these things very quickly.Luo Xiaojun's ghost was summoned by him, and Lushui opened his mind. He didn't realize that he was dead until this time, and burst into tears.

And that unlucky Qin Limin couldn't wait to scrub his body, and then ate the food Xie Lingya gave him.

He still had time to push Luo Xiaojun, "Dude, you still don't eat! We thank the teacher for feeding you!"

——After Xie Lingya gave him a meal, he basically became a father in his mind.

Luo Xiaojun rubbed his eyes, then grabbed the food and gnawed it, turning grief and anger into appetite.

The Bai mine manager who was watching from the side said to Secretary Liu: "Do you feel cold?"

Secretary Liu broke out in a cold sweat, "I, I, I don't know..."

When the Bai mine manager saw the ghost again, his anger was a little weak, so he sensed something, and he didn't say anything when he saw Secretary Liu like this.

Originally, Mine Manager Bai was very uneasy after being frightened by the ghost, but after Xie Lingya's explanation, he was not so afraid anymore. It turns out that ghosts are so miserable, so what is the difference between them and humans.

It's good to do a ritual to save all the poor ghosts in Liuhe Mine.

After eating the food, Xie Lingya recited sutras to Luo Xiaojun to get rid of his sins. After finishing the meal, he took this opportunity to ask: "How do you feel now?"

Secretary Liu saw that Xie Lingya was asking questions in one place, his legs were trembling, and he stood closer to Mine Manager Bai.

Luo Xiaojun was silent for a while, then said sadly: "I'm a bit reluctant... Sigh."

Although he had a peaceful face, he still had feelings in his heart. Before Xie Lingya could ask more, Luo Xiaojun left with a gust of wind.

Mine Manager Bai and Secretary Liu felt a gust of wind blowing, and they were relieved when they heard Xie Lingya say that they had already sent them away.But Secretary Liu relaxed after being afraid, but Mine Manager Bai was relieved and sighed.

The ceremony was finished, Shi Changxuan went back early because he had to go to class.Xie Lingya contacted the manufacturer who made custom statues of Lingguan before, and bought a pair of stone lions. They don't only make bronze statues there.

The stone lion was moved and placed at the entrance of the new building of Liuhe Mine, attracting many employees to watch. In fact, it is no secret that there was a "mage" before.It is said that this is a mage invited from the urban area of ​​Fuyang.

No, it's only been two days, and the long-term illness of the white mine has been healed. I heard from the person who went down the mine, and I didn't hear any strange sounds. Now there are stone lions, which should be used for Fengshui. It seems that in the future Nothing will happen.

Xie Lingya helped mine manager Bai finish the scene, and went home happily after receiving a reward of [-] yuan.

If you have money, if you have money, you can also change equipment for other idols!

Xie Lingya took Qin Limin to the urban area and told him to wander around the pedestrian street at night to see if there were any other things like picking up bags or stealing them.

Xie Lingya even introduced him and Ding Aima for a while, in a way to make them supervise each other.

As a result, Ding Aima and Qin Limin felt a little sympathetic to each other when they saw each other.Xie Lingya thought so too, they are all rare ghosts, although they manifest in different aspects.

As for the 10 yuan that he just got, Xie Lingya basically didn’t keep anything, and forcibly distributed [-]% to Shi Changxuan, and most of the rest was used to replace all the other statues in the temple with bronze statues, and the rest was for the temple. Repair.

However, now Baoyang Temple is full of people coming and going every day. Although most of them are visiting, the number of people offering incense is also accumulating.

I made a lot of money selling miscellaneous talismans, and the mosquito repellent talismans are no longer on sale. The sales of other talismans have also dropped in the past, but they are still being sold.In particular, the sales of amulets have also increased because of the blessing of Zhongyuan Dharma.

There are also other merit money and the like. When you add up all the living and working expenses, there are more than 3 yuan in net profit last month, so Xie Lingya is not too reluctant to give up Liuhe Mine. remuneration.

The more than 3 yuan also gave Xie Lingya some confidence. Although it is still far away from the goal of sculpting a golden body and building a large temple, at least the Taoist temple has come to life, and he has the confidence to continue recruiting Taoist priests. A Taoist priest is indeed too shabby. .

Xie Lingya raised Zhang Daoting's basic salary, that is, the single fee to [-] yuan.I posted a recruitment notice on the Internet, hoping that some Taoist priests would come to take up the job because they could see the development potential of their Taoist temple.

……

The bronze statue of Sanqing was built first, and a small consecration ceremony was held. Only internal believers participated. This time, Zhang Daoting presided over the ceremony. Xie Lingya asked him to practice.

It was precisely because of this ceremony that Shi Changxuan brought his teacher and classmates together.This is the case with their major in religious studies. In addition to theory, they also need to see various religions in various places, including observing some rituals.

Of course, it is best to observe the local temples and Taoist temples. Although Shi Changxuan has seen a lot of consecration ceremonies, and he has presided over them before, he still has to come as a student.

Before coming, Shi Changxuan greeted Xie Lingya, and his mentor also said a few words on the phone, Xie Lingya agreed.

The major of Religious Studies is really unpopular, and Shi Changxuan's tutor only brought two students. Besides Shi Changxuan, there is also a boy from another province. It is said that graduate students take interdisciplinary exams.

Shi Changxuan's mentor and Xie Lingya are from the same family, and their name is Xie Fan. After coming, he said that although he was teaching in Fuyang, he had never been to Baoyang Temple.

Xie Lingya thought to himself, that's not the case, none of the residents living nearby came, Baoyang Temple was really not well-known in the past.

Xie Fan led two students to watch the consecration ceremony and went back. After assigning homework to them, Shi Changxuan stayed here. His classmate looked at it and said, "You are playing here. I'll sit down for a while, and let's go together later."

——It turned out that he didn't know that Shi Changxuan lived here and his relationship with Baoyang Temple.

It's easy to talk about staying, Xie Lingya went to pour a pot of tea.It's just that I can't help laughing in my heart, Shi Changxuan is too bored, and the only classmate doesn't say that he is a Taoist Huoju?

Shi Changxuan said expressionlessly, "I live here."

Shi Changxuan's classmate is surnamed Huang, Huang Jinyang. He has a distinctive appearance. The eyelashes of his left eye are longer than those of his right eye, and his left eye often closes unnaturally, as if he cannot see the sunlight very well.Therefore, the chin is always slightly lifted and the head is tilted to look at people.

At first glance, Xie Lingya thought there was something wrong with one of his eyes, but later he found out that it was only closed often, but he could still open it with spirit.

At this moment, Huang Jinyang's left eye also opened suddenly, and his head was still tilted because of the sudden light flushed, he looked at Shi Changxuan in surprise, "What, you live here?"

Shi Changxuan nodded silently.

"Why do you live here? Don't you rent a house outside? Are you renting here? Or do you have anything to do with Boss Xie?" Huang Jinyang asked a series of questions.

Shi Changxuan: "..."

Xie Lingya didn't know why Shi Changxuan was silent again, he gave him a strange look, and replied: "Daoist Shi is a Taoist priest of Huoju, it's more convenient to live with us."

Huang Jinyang sweated a lot. He thought Shi Changxuan and Xie Lingya were relatives. He didn't expect his classmate to be a Taoist priest. "Then you went to a Buddhist temple with us last week to inspect..."

Xie Lingya thought for a while, "Hey, I went to a Buddhist temple. Fortunately, he is not a full-time Taoist priest, otherwise he might not be able to get in with that dress."

Shi Changxuan: "...um."

After being stunned, Huang Jinyang found it funny again, "I really didn't expect that, oh my god haha."

"Daozhang Shi is also very talkative at school?" Xie Lingya teased and poured tea for them.

"Hahaha, a little." Huang Jinyang sat on the chair, took a sip of tea, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked very relaxed, "I like this place so much..."

Unlike other temples, although there are many people, there is a sense of tranquility amidst the noise.

Body movements can't deceive people, he really doesn't seem to be flattering, he just likes the way here, Xie Lingya said with a smile: "Then come here more often."

Huang Jinyang nodded.

Everyone was of the same age, and Xie Lingya had also studied at Quedong College, so there was still something to talk about. Xie Lingya found that Huang Jinyang's left eye was open, so he asked curiously: "Your eyes have undergone surgery, so you can't be seen. Is the sun stimulating?"

This is indoors, so Xie Lingya guessed so.

"No." Huang Jinyang said this, his expression changed, and he pointed to his left eye calmly, "Because of this eye, he can see dirty things since he was a child."

After hearing Huang Jinyang's answer, Shi Changxuan and Xie Lingya didn't speak.

They are like this, Huang Jinyang is not calm, "That...don't you believe it?"

No, even if you don't believe it, it's not the reaction. This expression is like hearing someone say that the sun is out today.

His left eye has been able to see different things since he was born. He is used to avoiding it, so he has developed the habit of drooping his left eye from time to time.As time goes by, I am not used to opening my eyes even when I am outdoors during the day, and I am more sensitive. People who don't know it may think that there is something wrong with the eyes.And he is also used to the various reactions he got when talking to his friends since he was a child.

When he said it casually, he was already prepared to be treated as a joke by others, but he never expected that these two people looked indifferent.

Xie Lingya: "No, I believe..."

"Do you believe it?" Huang Jinyang was at a loss, "Why did you believe it and didn't respond at all?"

reaction?Xie Lingya wondered, don't I think it's not good to express sympathy?

After all, you only have one eye in this room that can see ghosts, and you can't control it...

"I see, you live in a Taoist temple, have you encountered some incredible things?" Huang Jinyang didn't hear the answer, but found an explanation by himself.

"That's right. Didn't someone close your eyes for you?" Xie Lingya asked.

Some people are born with the ability to see the yin, and there are ways to deal with it in Taoist techniques, which can be covered up so that normal life will not be affected.

In his heart, he was actually wondering if Shi Changxuan didn't find out, but thinking about it, Shi Changxuan didn't chat with anyone, maybe he didn't talk about this at all, or he didn't take the initiative to ask people if he found out that there was nothing wrong.

"When I was young, I kept avoiding it, and I didn't dare to tell others. I closed my left eye whenever I saw something dirty. Now I have developed a habit. I didn't know until I was older, and I could find someone to lock me up." Huang Jinyang smiled wryly, "But that It was already late, and it was said that I was too old to close it. I usually close my left eye from time to time, and I don’t go out much at night.”

It is estimated that the report of religious studies is also because of this.Xie Lingya has never met anyone with yin and yang eyes before, this eye can see ghosts, it sounds very fashionable, and it is the fate of being the protagonist in ordinary literary works.

But what happened to Huang Jinyang is too miserable, he is not fashionable at all, he closes one eye and tilts his head to look at people every day.

Xie Lingya said: "It's really not easy. At most, I suggest you wear glasses and blacken the left side, so that you don't have to close your eyes..."

Huang Jinyang: "..."

Xie Lingya continued: "But you can ask Daoist Shi if he has any unique secret recipes."

Shi Changxuan: "There is a talisman that can be solved, but this talisman needs to be affixed with the Seal of Heavenly Master Zhang."

Zhang Tianshi, of course, refers to Zhang Daoling, the founder of Zhengyi.

Xie Lingya is half a bucket of water, Huang Jinyang has no entry at all, both of them are a little confused after hearing this, Zhang Tianshi is easy to understand, what is the seal of merit?

Shi Changxuan was silent for three seconds before explaining helplessly: "It is said that the patriarch left behind a sword, a seal, and a fingernail before he became immortal. The seal is the seal of Yangping's rule of the capital, made of jade, engraved on the talisman, which can cure monsters; if a few nails are dropped and burned with incense, the ancestor can be invited to come to the world.

"To this day, the fingernails have long disappeared. The three-five evil sword is enshrined by the descendants of the ancestors. As for the Dugong Seal..."

Zhengyi has developed to the present and there are multiple schools, including Shi Changxuan's family who also inherited the Dharma lineage of one of them.Zhang Tianshi himself has direct descendants who have been Tianshi for more than 60 generations.

Both Xie Lingya and Huang Jinyang were fascinated by listening to legends, and Xie Lingya was even more imaginative, "It's all a merit seal, did it go to another faction in Zhengyi, and then Zhang Tianshi's descendants have been wanting to take it back... My God , won't be in your house, will it be taken by your father? Or will it be exiled to other sects?"

Huang Jinyang also speculated, "Are there several seals that are indistinguishable from the real ones, and I still don't know how to confirm them?"

Shi Changxuan said quietly: "...the seal of Yangping's rule of the capital, which is now hidden in the Provincial Museum."

Xie Lingya and Huang Jinyang: "......"

Xie Lingya and Huang Jinyang looked at each other awkwardly, and said nonchalantly: "It turned out to be handed over to the country, it seems that there is no chance. Is there any other way?"

——Xie Lingya quickly changed the topic, because now he still doesn't know what kind of troubles will be involved in this Yangping Zhidu Gong Seal in the future.

Shi Changxuan thought for a moment and said: "You can try the fortune-telling talisman. Although the left eye hides yin and cannot be closed for a while, but if the fortune changes, it will not be easy to meet the yin."

Huang Jinyang was full of hope at once, he couldn't close his yin and yang eyes, even if he didn't encounter dirty things.It's really ugly to always tilt his head. Because of this, he is still single until now.

Xie Lingya murmured, "Fortune talisman? I don't know how to draw this."

Huang Jinyang looked at Shi Changxuan again, wanting to ask him if he could draw.

But before the eyes of the two met, Xie Lingya touched his chin and said, "Give me 10 minutes, I'll learn."

Huang Jinyang: "..."

Shi Changxuan: "..."

Under Shi Changxuan's eyes that always contained countless contents, Xie Lingya made a lucky charm and asked Huang Jinyang to try it.

Huang Jinyang has tried many methods over the years, but his mentality is not bad, and he still has hope. After thanking them, he happily accepted it.

Xie Lingya sent Huang Jinyang to the door, and told him to remember to turn around and give feedback on whether the talisman worked, so that he could know how effective it was.

After Huang Jinyang left, Xie Lingya leaned against the door and replied to the text message. It was from He Zun, asking him if he had a talisman to ask his girlfriend, and he replied coldly: no.

"Hello, is the temple master here?" Xie Lingya heard a voice and looked up. It was a man in his thirties who was asking the believers who were volunteers, with a slight foreign accent.

This man has an elegant temperament and a gentle appearance, and he even wears a pair of glasses.When the volunteer heard this, he immediately called out to Xie Lingya, "Xiao Xie."

They don't have a viewer, but the boss has one, leading the two people including himself.

The man looked at Xie Lingya, and swept his face a few times, "Classmate, what is the relationship between Wang Yuji and you?"

As the saying goes that a nephew is like an uncle, Xie Lingya and Wang Yuji are quite similar. He reckoned that this person knew his uncle, and he could tell, so he replied, "I am his nephew, brother, are you?"

This person called his uncle by his first name, and he didn't know that his uncle had passed away, so he might be a distant friend.Seeing that he is not much older than himself, Xie Lingya thought to himself, if he doesn't correct me, I won't be called uncle anymore.

The man understood, adjusted his glasses and said with a smile, "My name is Hai Guanchao. Your uncle has asked me to be your husband. You can call me Master."

Xie Lingya: "..."

... Do you dare to rise faster in your seniority? ?
