Part-Time Taoist Priest

Shanglushen didn't speak, but Shi Changxuan seemed to feel its stiffness and helplessness, he pushed the pin away indifferently, took off Shanglushen and put it in Xie Lingya's hand.

Shanglu God: "!!!"

Xie Lingya held Shang Lushen in his arms, still leaning very close, "Huh?"

Shang Lushen suddenly felt that the wood was soaked in water, it was as crisp and soft, and he was nervous, shy and frightened, and he let out a moan after a while, "Huh..."

Xie Lingya raised his face and smiled, amused, "I wasn't very bold just now, but I still want to protect my innocence, why is there no sound now."

Shanglushen burst into tears, "It's not like that... woo... no..." It cried and felt that it was too weak to say this sentence dryly, so it could only cry, "Shi Changxuan is too bad Already!"

To actually send it to Xie Lingya, it was something he could only wish for in the past, but now...

Shi Changxuan looked at it indifferently.

"Why are you crying?" Although there were no tears, the cry was miserable enough, Xie Lingya touched the little wooden man's forehead a few times, seeing that everyone else was in the excitement of the rest of their lives, and no one noticed, whispered , "I don't blame you, I'm just a little surprised."

Even after being surprised, I find it funny and interesting.

As Xie Lingya touched his forehead, Shang Lushen's crying gradually calmed down, and finally he choked and said, "Then I will still be cute in the future..."

Xie Lingya: "No, you're a little rascal."

Shang Lushen: "..."

Just as Shang Lu let out a howl, Xie Lingya quickly said: "I'm kidding, of course you are still cute."

The crying was suffocated, and Shang Lushen was still a little dazed, and it took a long time for him to say "oh".

It seemed that he couldn't recover for a while, Xie Lingya handed it back with a suppressed smile, and asked, "Has it always been like this?"

"This way" of course refers to "true face", Shi Changxuan nodded, Shang Lushen had never restrained himself in front of him, but he also explained to him: "It didn't mean it, it was shy when it saw you .”

"You like me so much." Xie Lingya said with a smile.

Although Xie Lingya couldn't hear it, Shang Lushen still whispered "um".

After Xie Lingya finished speaking, he found that Shi Changxuan was also looking at him, and suddenly realized that what he said just now seemed to be addressed to Shi Changxuan, and he was immediately embarrassed, and turned his head away, "Ahem... Oh, yes, we Jialiu Lingtong should not be like this."

He just randomly found an excuse to change the subject, Liu Lingtong was always by his side, and he was indeed really timid.

Shi Changxuan: "This kind of ear reward god is still rare."

Shang Lushen: "..."

There are too few congenital wood spirits, and there is no case like Shang Lushen in the only records.However, it and Liu Lingtong practiced beside them, the more merits they gained, the more humanity and wisdom they had.Maybe in the future, Liu Lingtong will be able to fight against the ghost king if he becomes bolder, who knows.

At this time, the driver also recovered. When he was driving back before, his whole body was tense. After crossing the bridge, his heart was beating extremely fast and his hands were shaking. Only then did he calm down.

"Master, shall I continue driving?" the driver asked the two for instructions.

"Go ahead, see the road clearly this time." Xie Lingya said.

The driver scratched his head, "...I will try my best."

He didn't know what happened just now, so he drove on the ghost road.But suddenly thinking that Xie Lingya asked him to ask for incense, he said in surprise: "Master, you asked me to burn incense before, did you see something, am I okay?"

"You're alright," Xie Lingya said, "It's just that your luck is a bit low, so just change your luck."

No wonder he got on the wrong bridge, and the driver had lingering fears. If it weren't for the fact that there were two masters in the car, he would have to implicate a whole car if he finished the calf by himself.

The other passengers slowly recovered from the joy of escaping a catastrophe, and what filled their hearts was more curiosity about Xie Lingya and the others. They asked if the two were optimistic, after all, this bus was heading for Changle Mountain.I also want to leave a contact information, no one can tell if similar things will happen in the future, no is the best, if there is, I have a bottom line in my heart.

In fact, everyone was still a little uneasy, afraid that the expert would say something very mysterious, such as saying goodbye in the future, and then drifted away.

But when Xie Lingya took out his phone and scanned the WeChat QR code for everyone, they were completely relieved.

Xie Lingya introduced that he was not from the provincial capital, and the two of them just came to Changlian to participate in the Fa Conference, and they came from Baoyang Temple in Fuyang.

"Holding the Sun? I seem to have heard of it on the Internet."

"That's right, I remembered it too, that Yu Yang... oh my god, no wonder it looks familiar, then you really recruited the cranes back then!"

Xie Lingya corrected: "No, that one really escaped from the zoo."

Everyone: "..."

Their excited mood was beaten down a little bit, but they were still a little excited.

"Oh my god, to be honest, if I go back and tell people what happened tonight, no one will believe me." Someone murmured.

Others also sighed, isn't it? They don't have any evidence. Those who believe will believe it, and those who don't believe it probably just listen to it as a story. There are never many similar urban anecdotes.

But no matter what other people think, including what people here thought before, their thinking will change after today.

There is still half an hour's drive away, and some passengers also took the opportunity to ask Xie Lingya and Shi Changxuan, "I bought a house last year, and someone told me during the renovation that my house lacks yang, and I need to grow sunflowers at home. But I really It’s not the material for growing flowers, several pots have died, little master, is there any way?”

Xie Lingya almost vomited, "Plant sunflowers if you don't have enough yang qi? Senior brother, have you heard of it? What school of thought is this?"

Shi Changxuan was also helpless, "A charlatan, just like Wu Liang's former master."

It's absurd that Yin soldiers fly planes and plant sunflowers to replenish yang energy, but some people will believe it.One is limited to their own knowledge, and the other is that some liars are really good at acting.

The passenger didn't know Wu Liang's master, but the charlatan understood and slapped his thigh and said, "I gave him 300 yuan back, but he was a liar. I'll settle the score with him later. By the way, little master, What if I ask you to watch the house?"

"I don't do much research in this area. If you really want to read it, contact me on WeChat in the future. I'll introduce someone to you." Xie Lingya was referring to Fang Zhe. , Physiognomy has also been studied, and there is relatively little contact with Fengshui. Shi Changxuan knows a little bit, but he is not a major, and he looks at private houses for others and arranges Fengshui bureaus more.The house was already bought, so I asked Fang Zhe, the heir of "Book of Luban", to take a look.

In just half an hour, Xie Lingya answered questions for many passengers on the bus, and when they finally got off the bus, everyone thanked them and said that they would specially go to Baoyang Temple to offer incense in the future.They saw the abilities of these two masters, what was even more rare was that Xie Lingya was approachable, answered every question, and did not ask for compensation for saving people.

"Haha, if you go on a trip, you are welcome to visit. If you don't go to Fuyang, you usually want to burn incense. You can also go to a Taoist temple in the provincial capital. I recommend Fuchenghuang Temple." Xie Lingya finally said.

"Little master," the driver called to stop him, "Why is it Fu Cheng Huang Temple, not Chang Lean?"

Changlian has a long history, and the main god enshrined is Taiyi Tianzun, which is also very famous.

As for the Fu Town God's Temple, it has actually been built for many years. The City God is divided into four levels: capital, government, prefecture, and county.However, there seems to be something missing from long-term optimism.

What's more, didn't these two go for Changli?

Xie Lingya laughed and said, "I'm just recommending it, don't ask me why."

Everyone thought that there was something in it, and they analyzed it themselves, and they found that the county magistrate was not as good as the current one.

In fact, there are so many reasons. Of course, recommending Fu Chenghuang Temple is to give his uncle some incense!

……

They arrived a little later than expected because they passed Yinqiao on the way. Shi Changxuan's senior brother picked them up at the entrance of the scenic spot, so Xie Lingya would not have to buy a ticket.

Shi Changxuan's senior brother is his father's disciple, and his Taoist name is Chi Qingyun.This time, the Daoist Fa Conference co-organized by the Provincial Highway invites people from the Taoist circles in this province to participate, including Shi Changxuan's family.

As a scenic spot and historic site, Changlian has cooperated with the government very early and developed it into a scenic spot.

"Why is it so late, did something happen on the way?" Chi Qingyun asked, and then he clasped fists and saluted with Xie Lingya. Although they had never met, Xie Lingya's name was very famous in the Taoist circles of Queshan Province. He even raised the reputation of Baoyang Temple, not to mention that Shi Changxuan even worshiped Xie Lingya's uncle as his husband.

Shi Changxuan just shook his head, indicating that it's okay.Now that it has been resolved, it is not a big deal and there is nothing to say.

Xie Lingya saw his bored look, and explained on his behalf: "The driver of the bus drove up to Yinqiao, and he came back after tossing a bit."

"Hey, this driver is good enough." Chi Qingyun asked again, "Then you are tired, the master is already asleep, I will take you to rest, are you sleeping in a hotel or in a Taoist temple?"

Shi Changxuan's father was used to going to bed early and getting up early, so he rested before they got there.And because so many people from the Taoist circle came to the Fa Conference, there must be no room for one place. Compared with hotels, the conditions in Taoist temples are probably not so good.

Xie Lingya said again: "Let's just go inside the Taoist temple, it's more convenient."

Chi Qingyun asked a few more questions, all of which were Xie Lingya's decision, he thought it was quite interesting, although Junior Brother Shi was a bit cold, he was not a person without ideas, on the contrary, Xie Lingya seemed more easy-going.But when it comes to real questions, Xie Lingya decides everything, and some people don't even need to ask Shi Changxuan's opinion.

"Which of the two of you is the senior brother, I think it's the senior brother Xie who is making arrangements, Chang Xuan, you are familiar with Chang Optimism." Chi Qingyun asked curiously.Chang Optimism is still the office of the Provincial Road Association, and Shi Changxuan often comes here.

In the past, I just heard that Junior Brother Shi finally had friends, but I didn't expect it to be such a way of getting along. No wonder he was willing to stay and help others even during the holidays.

Xie Lingya was taken aback for a moment, and then said unnaturally: "I'm used to making arrangements in Baoyang Temple, senior brother has a good temper, let me go, so that I can appear to be a leader."

good temper?Chi Qingyun couldn't help laughing a few times, but still said: "Then Junior Brother Shi is really thinking about you, it's true that I arranged for you to sleep in a room."

"..." Xie Lingya also laughed dryly, looked at Chi Qingyun suspiciously, thinking that Shi Changxuan didn't tell his family about the two of them.

Chi Qingyun took them to the place, and Xie Lingya saw that although it was a single room, not crowded with other fellow Taoists, there was only a double bed in it, which was not particularly spacious.

The corner of Xie Lingya's mouth twitched, looking at Chi Qingyun's upright face, he couldn't say anything, "...Thank you."

"Then you guys have a good rest, don't oversleep when you get up early tomorrow." Chi Qingyun greeted and left.

Xie Lingya put the backpack away calmly, went to try the hot water, after a little humility, let him wash up first, and then Shi Changxuan went.

When Shi Changxuan was taking a bath, Xie Lingya lay on the bed, put the two earbuds side by side on the pillow, looked at them in a daze, and then sighed, although he didn't know why he sighed.

Shang Lushen boldly said: "Don't sigh."

"Shi Changxuan is okay."

"What do you know?" Xie Lingya burst out laughing, and gathered the fruits to offer them, "Eat yours, don't talk nonsense."

Xie Lingya lay back and played with his mobile phone. After a while, he heard Shi Changxuan coming out of the bathroom and wiping his hair with a towel. He slept on the inside with his back facing the outside, and only heard movement.After a while, Shi Changxuan approached, and his side sank. It was him who came up, as if he could still feel the heat from his body.

Although it wasn't the first time they slept together, since Shi Changxuan moved to rent a house, even if they lived with him later, it was only when there were other Taoist priests in the house.Sleeping alone was the first time after confessing.

As Xie Lingya listened, he realized that he hadn't touched the phone with his fingers for a long time, and the lights on the screen were all dimmed.

Shi Changxuan also thought that Xie Lingya had fallen asleep, so he propped himself up on the bed, gently pulled the phone out of Xie Lingya's hand, put it on the bedside, and then turned off the light.

Xie Lingya's hand was empty, because Shi Changxuan felt a little empty in his heart because of this action, and then his vision went dark, and he felt Shi Changxuan stretched out his hand again, touched his cold ear, and pulled the air-conditioning blanket up to cover it.

Xie Lingya suddenly became restless again, closed his eyes and fell asleep peacefully.

Early the next morning, the whole Changlei woke up.

This World Peace Dharma Conference will last for three days and will be divided into two parts. One is to pray for blessings, hoping for peace in the world and harmony among countries.

A Dharma altar was set up, offering incense, flowers, lanterns and fruits. There were thousands of believers and hundreds of Taoist priests from various temples.

Xie Lingya and Shi Changxuan were among them, and every Taoist priest they met showed him a friendly smile...

Xie Lingya wanted to stand on the layman's side, but Shi's father and Shi's mother grabbed him. Shi Changxuan's parents were both Taoist priests, and they brought out a cassock, saying that it belonged to Shi Changxuan, and they brought it here specially. Let Xie Lingya wear it.

Xie Lingya said in embarrassment: "It's not suitable..."

I didn't tell him before I came, but now I'm asking him to go up temporarily, maybe it's because I'm afraid he will refuse.He couldn't say that he was unprepared, otherwise, with his reputation, he might be asked to learn on the spot.

"It's inappropriate if you don't wear it. Then everyone will see you alone." Father Shi said, it means that Xie Lingya must also come on stage, "If you don't co-host the ceremony, don't you..."

"I'll go, I'll go." Xie Lingya hurriedly said, otherwise it seemed that he was not active at all in praying for blessings and saving death. In fact, he was very respectful, but he felt that he was being beaten into a Taoist priest again.

"Wine Sacrifice Taoist..." Shi Changxuan whispered beside him.

"You don't have to go up to the Taoist Priest, no one is trying to find out my identity." Xie Lingya said speechlessly.

He unfolded Shi Changxuan's old cassock. Different from the red one on Shi Changxuan's body, this one is a very low-saturation, light goose yellow. When illuminated, you will find stars, sun, moon, dragon, phoenix, and kylin embroidered with gold and silver threads, with auspicious patterns all over it, and it seems to be hand-embroidered, very delicate.

Dharma robes are worn by Taoist priests on formal occasions such as Zhaijiao rituals, and are also called Celestial Cave Clothes.

After Xie Lingya put it on, he became a little more immortal in an instant.Standing with Shi Changxuan is really pleasing to the eye.

There are more than a dozen Taoist priests in the Dharma Association. Gao Gong, who presided over the Dharma, is a long-term optimist, and also the president of the Provincial Road Association, Daoist Dai Dingrong. Xie Lingya met once when he came to receive the award.

As long as you come, you will be safe, Xie Lingya greeted Daoist Dai, and stood in the queue with Shi Changxuan.

Seeing that there seemed to be many tablets on the altar, Xie Lingya asked Shi Changxuan in a low voice: "Who are those? Local heroes?"

Shi Changxuan glanced at it and said: "...It can be said so. Chang'an Optimism has been built for thousands of years. Whenever there is a war, he opens the door to take in the people and distributes food for relief. The Taoist priest of the temple also went down the mountain to fight against the enemy to save people, and the temple was at least once There are only three old, weak, sick and young Taoist priests left, and these are the tablets of those Taoist priests."

Most of those Taoist priests have no bones left, and few have returned to the mountain, but the Taoist temples have recorded one by one, no matter prosperity or decline, as long as there are people in the temple, they will be enshrined every year, praying for their dead souls and their afterlife.

Xie Lingya was a little moved, the Taoist temple was built in the deep mountains to get closer to the sky, but practice has never been only in the mountains, the world of mortals is the Daochang.The practice of these seniors is not in the mountains, and maybe they don't even have time to recite scriptures, but who can say that they don't understand the way.

At this time, Daoist Dai also began to speak, and there were reporters taking photos below, "Today is the early autumn of XX, all parties of noble virtues gathered in Changle Mountain to pray for world peace and recommend heroic spirits..."

After reading, Xie Lingya thought that he was about to start chanting, so he prepared solemnly.

Daoist Dai licked his lower lip and said, "todaywemeetintheautumnofxxatChangLeMountainswithdistinguishedguests..."

Xie Lingya: "..."

He was a little dazed, and turned his head after a while and said, "... President Dai speaks well, not bad."

This World Peace Dharma Conference, hosted bilingually, seems to be fine.

Shi Changxuan also whispered: "Self-taught, President Dai also taught himself French, and has been trying to translate classics by himself."

For a moment, Xie Lingya seemed to understand the mood of those who were broken by him. He readjusted his mood after Taoist Dai read it again in a fluent foreign language.

Masters from famous temples across the province chanted sutras and prayed together.

Today's prayer is said to have been written by Father Shi. Although there were many people present, it was very quiet, with only the sound of prayer. In the end, the Taoist priests who presided over the ceremony and more than a hundred Taoist priests attending the meeting chanted in unison: "May the world be peaceful." , the harmony of all nations...May this merit spread to all sentient beings!"

Burn incense and offer prayers to the gods of heaven.

When it came time to recommend the death ceremony, I became more calm. The main god of Chang optimistic is Taiyi Tianzun, who is the Lord of salvation, and Taiyi Tianzun will be asked to bless all the rituals of death.For Daoist Dai, who presides over the law, this is the best.

Before that, I have to sue the City God to invite the help of the priest of the Yin Temple to do some work before moving.

Xie Lingya chanted sutras together, and saw a few strong men in official uniforms coming to the altar to listen to orders, he opened his eyes a little, it seems that today's day was chosen well, the induction is very strong, even before he opened his eyes, he saw the evil .

When those warriors saw him, they nodded their heads slightly to say hello, although they had never met, but Xie Lingya had the seal of the City God on his body, they also knew that he was a relative of the Grand Master.

One of the wrestlers suddenly walked up to the altar and walked around to the tablet.He looks very young, not more than sixteen or seventeen, but Yinshou cannot be determined from appearance alone.

Xie Lingya stared at him, and Shi Changxuan at the side touched him, thinking he was distracted.

Xie Lingya shook his head slightly, and continued to look at the wrestler, not knowing what he was going to do.

Seeing that the wrestler was holding a yin and yang, he actually took a handful of heart incense, and then as if he noticed Xie Lingya's eyes, he turned his head and smiled at him, pointed to one of the tablets, and said mischievously: "This is me."

Xie Lingya was moved and wanted to laugh for a moment, and quietly cupped his hands over there.

Seeing his movements, Shi Changxuan was also thoughtful and didn't say anything.

……

The Dharma conference lasted so long, and everyone stopped to take turns to eat in the middle, and Xie Lingya even took time to feed the Ear God.

Daoist Dai called Xie Lingya over for a while, and introduced him to a pious foreign believer. Only then did Xie Lingya find out that there were foreigners attending the conference.

Luckily, Xie Lingya didn't learn English for the postgraduate entrance examination, so if he could chat, even if the other party talked about Taoist scriptures, he still had to think about how to translate them in his mind, unlike Taoist Dai, who talked and laughed happily and was very comfortable.

Xie Lingya found an excuse to get away without saying a few words, "English is too unlovable. This is the most difficult thing I have learned since I was a child. What should I do? If foreign tourists come to our Taoist temple..."

Shang Lushen said flatteringly: "Me, adorable."

Xie Lingya was startled, seeing that it was Shang Lushen who said it, he was so cute for a moment, picked it up and kissed it, "See if I can do it for you!"

The author has something to say: Daoist Dai’s two sentences were changed from the Wudang Mountain Declaration
