Chapter 771: Unintentional Planting of Willows
This mysterious look made Jiang Wan a little surprised.
They did not know Taoist Master Minghui before they came here, but he was able to predict their arrival.
As expected, there are still people with deep experience in this field.
Her eyes fell on Taoist Master Minghui.
He was wearing a Taoist robe, his eyes were gentle, and the dustpan in his hand was resting on his other arm.
"Meet Taoist Master Minghui."
Song Jiuyuan was very respectful to Minghui. In fact, it was the first time they met.
But Minghui had heard of the name Song Jiuyuan before.
The group was warmly welcomed into Sanqing Temple, and Minghui personally received Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan.
At this time, Minghui and Jiang Wan were sitting opposite each other, and Song Jiuyuan held Jiang Wan's hand to give her strength.
"Master, I came here this time to ask for a favor."
Song Jiuyuan came straight to the point. Minghui looked at his face carefully and was not surprised.
"You do have a calamity ahead of you."
The corners of his mouth curled up wildly, and he would make a fortune today.
"Master, how can we resolve this calamity?"
Jiang Wan couldn't wait to speak. Since it was about Song Jiuyuan, she found it difficult to calm down.
Taoist Master Minghui glanced at Jiang Wan deeply, and then said in a mysterious tone.
"Your Majesty has a noble fate. Even if that person has evil intentions, it won't be that easy."
"But that person is as slippery as a loach and is very good at calculating. We can't find him for the time being."
This is what Jiang Wan finds difficult. If she finds old man Bai, she will definitely give him some poison.
So that he will no longer have the ability to do evil.
Taoist Master Minghui calculated with his fingertips, then smiled at Song Jiuyuan and Jiang Wan and said:
"If you plant flowers with care, they may not bloom; if you plant willows without care, they may grow into shade trees."
"Master, do you mean to let nature take its course?"
Song Jiuyuan was not stupid and quickly understood what Taoist Minghui meant. Taoist Minghui nodded with a smile.
"yes."
"Thank you for your advice, Taoist Priest."
Song Jiuyuan was very humble in front of the master, but Jiang Wan thought more deeply.
"Master, can I ask for a talisman?"
Thinking of the many talismans that Old Man Bai had, Jiang Wan thought that one of them must have something that could counter the other.
Sure enough, Minghui's smile deepened. He suddenly stood up and took out two amulets from the box in the house.
"I have a connection with you two distinguished guests, so I will give you two amulets."
"useless."
Jiang Wan quickly took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve and said, "Thank you very much, Taoist priest, but we can't take it for free."
"That would be disrespectful."
Minghui did not refuse. She looked at the banknotes and took out five hundred taels from them, looking as if she was doing it in a proper way.
Jiang Wan: ...
This is different from the monk I met before.
Perhaps seeing Jiang Wan's strange look, Minghui coughed lightly and said, "The founder of Sanqing Temple needs incense."
"I know, I know."
Jiang Wan took the amulets with a smile, handed one to Song Jiuyuan and kept the other close to her body.
"The development of Guanli cannot be separated from money."
"Your Excellency is very understanding."
Minghui laughed even more happily, and Jiang Wan subconsciously thought of the boxes of silver in the old man Bai's cellar.
Those were ill-gotten gains, and Jiang Wan didn't want to keep them for herself.
Then he took out another stack of banknotes from his sleeve and neatly placed them in front of Minghui.
"Master, these are our intentions. I think this Taoist temple is quite old and it's time for some renovation.
Taoist priests have to spend money every day to learn to draw talismans and buy cinnabar and ink, so they can’t save money.”
She hoped that the Taoist temple could cultivate more powerful people and eliminate harm like Old Man Bai.
Hearing this, Minghui grinned and did not refuse. Instead, she stood up and took out a few more talismans from the wooden box.
"Your Excellency is kind-hearted. You two can carry these talismans with you."
It can save your life at the critical moment.
Jiang Wan is generous, and Minghui is also generous.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest."
Jiang Wan didn't ask what the talisman was. Her intuition told her that it was harmless.
Song Jiuyuan stared in amazement at the two people talking to each other, and looking at the silver bills on the table, to be honest, he was a little shocked.
He knows better than anyone that Wanwan is a money-grubber.
She actually took out so much money at this time, it must be for him.
Didn’t you see that Taoist Master Minghui gave us many amulets?
Song Jiuyuan's eyes were filled with emotion, and his expression became increasingly gentle as he looked at Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan: ???
She didn't know what Song Jiuyuan was thinking about, why was he smiling so happily?
"Speaking of which, it was the Sanqing Temple that caused the trouble for the two of you. That person is my junior fellow apprentice.
Because he liked to study unorthodox ways, he was kicked out of Sanqing Temple by his master. Unexpectedly, he not only did not repent, but became even worse.
Sanqing Temple has also been trying to catch him, but he always escapes."
Maybe Jiang Wan was too sincere, Minghui actually told them her true feelings.
The old man Bai turned out to be his junior fellow apprentice?
The two were extremely shocked. Jiang Wan's pupils were dizzy. "So he also learned the skills from Sanqing Temple?"
“Not entirely.”
Taoist Priest Minghui looked somewhat helpless, "He has been smart since he was young and learns things faster than others.
If he had followed the right path, this temple master might not be me. It’s just that one day he got an evil book, and his master didn’t allow him to study it, so he studied it secretly.
When the master found out about this, he destroyed the evil book and expelled the person from Sanqing Temple.
He saw what happened that day with his own eyes, so he knows it quite clearly.
However, Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan's eyes fell on his gentle face, and they recalled the old man's wrinkled face that day.
"Master, is he really your fellow apprentice?"
Song Jiuyuan had a strange expression on his face, "That man looks like an old man."
"He did so many bad things that he got hurt."
Speaking of Taoist Master Minghui, he no longer had the sage-like appearance he had at the beginning, and now seemed to be faintly proud.
Jiang Wan looked at his young face and quickly understood what he meant.
So the correct way of doing things can keep one young, but the evil magic may not be the same, and it can even make people age prematurely.
"Thank you, Taoist priest, for clearing up my doubts."
Song Jiuyuan obviously also realized what Taoist Minghui meant. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly and he almost laughed out loud.
After receiving a large sum of money, Taoist Master Minghui was beaming with joy, “It’s getting late now, let’s go down the mountain.
Why don't you two stay overnight? I will have someone prepare food for you."
"Thank you, Taoist Priest."
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan did not refuse. This Taoist temple gave them an inexplicable sense of security.
The illusion that Song Jiuyuan was being watched disappeared after he arrived at the Taoist temple.
He probably knew that the old white man's hands couldn't be stretched that long.
So Taoist Minghui arranged for Jiang Wan and the others to live in the backyard. When they left Taoist Minghui's yard, Fuling and Cheng Jinmuxiang hurried over to meet them.
"What took you two so long in there?"
Cheng Jin looked Song Jiuyuan up and down. After what happened with old man Bai, they were now wary of everyone.
"Don't worry, we're fine."
Jiang Wan handed him and Fuling Muxiang an amulet each, and said, "Keep it with you."
"What is this?"
Cheng Jin looked at them carefully. Fuling and Muxiang had full trust in Jiang Wan, so he put the things away without asking any questions.
