Chapter 60: Traveling together, Taoist Baihe’s tea art

Take your seat and serve tea.

Yi Chen sits on the left, and a Taoist with white hair and a youthful face sits on the right.

The two of them confirmed with their eyes that they were in the same industry.

The head of the Wang family, Wang Ba, and his wife sat in the main seat.

"Master Yichengzi, the old lady is about to pass away. My wife didn't know that my second brother had invited a Taoist priest, so she invited the Taoist priest Baihe from her mother's family without authorization."

"You two are both highly skilled in Taoism. How about you two Taoists take care of the funeral together?"

The person who spoke was Wang Ba, the patriarch of the Wang family. When Yi Chen first heard the name, he thought he would be a rough and strong man, but when he met him, he found that the patriarch of the Wang family was more like a middle-aged Confucian scholar who was well-read in poetry and books.

He spoke slowly and his tone was slightly sad, probably because he was sad that the old lady of the Wang family was about to pass away.

Yi Chen and Taoist Baihe naturally had no objection and nodded in agreement immediately.

At this time, Mrs. Wang, who was sitting next to the head of the Wang family, spoke.

"Master, everything has its priorities. In this funeral, between Taoist Master Yichengzi and Taoist Master Baihe, who is the leader and who is the deputy?"

Mrs. Wang is a beautiful woman with graceful manners, elegant temperament and exquisite curves. She is wearing a rose-colored long-sleeved dress. She has a very hot body, but her expression is as cold as ice when she speaks.

This made Yi Chen couldn't help but take another look.

What a beautiful ice and fire rose.

However, he could not help but wonder why Madam Wang, the granddaughter-in-law, wore such colorful clothes when Old Lady Wang was about to pass away? What surprised Yi Chen even more was that he found that there was a little bit of ghost energy left on Madam Wang's body. Although the breath was very weak, it was still captured by his five senses.

"Is this Madam Wang the one who raises the ghost behind the scenes, or has she come into contact with evil spirits in the past few days?"

“Things are really getting more and more interesting.”

Yi Chen was in deep thought, and although he had many questions in his mind, he suppressed them and looked calm and composed, with his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart.

"Ahem, who is the leader and who is the follower? This matter is quite simple."

Taoist Baihe, who was sitting opposite Yi Chen, spoke up, "There is no order of learning, the one who achieves first comes first. I wonder what kind of Taoism Taoist Yichengzi is good at?"

"I know a little about the Pure Yang Way." Yi Chen replied.

"Oh? Fellow Daoist, do you know how to use fire bombs?"

"Uh, no."

"What about the art of turning beans into soldiers?"

"Uh, neither."

"What about the method of finding dragon points and observing qi?"

"Um, I understand a little bit, a little bit."

"What is your best skill, fellow Taoist?"

Yi Chen was silent for a while, then he spoke:

"I do have some strength, which is commendable..."

When asked this, Taoist Baihe stopped immediately, uttered a Taoist name, and then kept silent.

As an expert in the art of green tea, he knew that the heat was enough.

"Master Baihe is older and has more experience, so why don't we let Master Baihe take charge and Master Yichengzi take the assistant to take charge of the subsequent funeral affairs?"

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but interrupt when she heard this.

After hearing this, the winner is clear.

Taoist Baihe had a proud look on his face at this time, and kept stroking his three goat whiskers.

Yi Chen did not argue and agreed immediately.

This Taoist Baihe was someone that Madam Wang found from her natal family. Her bias was obvious. He was found by the younger brother of the head of the Wang family.

Some things are a matter of taking sides, and there is no point in arguing about them.

He didn't want to get involved in the conflicts of interest among the wealthy families. It didn't matter to him whether he was the boss or the subordinate, as long as the money was paid.

Besides, as soon as he entered the palace, he felt something was wrong. He always felt that things were not that simple. The Taoist Baihe's green tea skills were also very superb, not inferior to his, so Yi Chen simply took advantage of the situation.

Let Taoist Baihe perform on the stage while he observes the whole situation secretly.

Haha, how could the cunning and complacent look in Baihe Taoist's eyes be hidden from Yi Chen now? How could this person know that every gift from fate was secretly marked with a price.

When he asked Yi Chen what Taoist magic he was best at, Yi Chen's reply was, "I do have quite a bit of strength which is commendable." In fact, he was trying to take advantage of the situation and get away with it.

Yi Chen guessed that when Taoist Baihe heard him say this, he must have laughed out loud and exclaimed that he had met an honest man.

However, this situation is just what Yi Chen hopes to see, and he just goes with the flow.

You all see me as a fool, and I should see you the same way.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Don't be in a hurry, the real show has just begun, just play with them.

Led by their servants, Yi Chen and Master Bai He retreated to the other courtyard, and silence returned to the hall.

"Madam, Taoist Yichengzi is the candidate selected by my second brother. It would be inappropriate for us to do this." The head of the Wang family could not help but whispered at this time.

Madam Wang raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "How dare you say that? The old lady is about to pass away, and your second brother hasn't come back yet. Let's see what kind of ugly guy he has found to preside over the ceremony for the old lady."

"It's commendable to have a bit of strength, but how strong can it be? Our palace is large and powerful, and there are many people with great strength. Do we need his second branch to find a Taoist priest with great strength to preside over it?"

"Would you like to let the oxen in the mansion rest for a while so that they can have more strength to plow the fields?"

After Mrs. Wang finished her speech, the head of the Wang family showed an embarrassed look on his face, and he didn't want to say anything more. He was a pushover. Although he guessed that Mrs. Wang would take advantage of this issue to divide the family property in the future, he was also a beneficiary, so he remained silent to express his agreement.

Night, palace, dining room.

Tallow candles as thick as arms lit up the entire hall as bright as day.

The small dining hall is also decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and is surrounded by celadon antiques, showing an atmosphere of wealth.

Yi Chen sat below Master Baihe, while everyone else ate at separate tables.

At this moment, he was struggling with the grilled lamb chops in his hand. He opened his mouth wide and swallowed a small piece of feces into his stomach piece by piece like sugarcane.

No, it's even more cruel than eating sugarcane. When you eat sugarcane, you have to spit out the residue, but he chews it up into pieces with the meat and bones and swallows it into his stomach.

Every person has his own spiritual pet. The little cat's eating habits are exactly the same as its owner's. It holds a lamb bone in the big bowl in front of it and chews it until its mouth is full of oil. It doesn't care that there are a lot of oil stains on its fur.

Sitting above Yi Chen, True Man Baihe had a much more elegant way of eating.

Even Yi Chen had to admit that Taoist Baihe was really good-looking, with white hair and a youthful face, his hair was combed meticulously, and he was wearing a purple Taoist robe with the edges embroidered with gold thread, mountains, rivers and lakes embroidered on the back, and the sun, moon and stars embroidered on the front, looking very impressive.

True Man Baihe ignored the lamb chops on his seat. He just ate some fruit and drank some tea from time to time. He didn't even drink any wine, saying that he wanted to fast for the old lady.

Next to Master Baihe, there was also a white crane standing with a long and elegant neck. Like its master, it only ate some grapes and drank some water from time to time. From time to time, it would secretly glance at the little cat that was eating and drinking, but it did not dare to look the little cat in the eye. It would retreat as soon as its eyes made contact, as if it was very afraid.

Madam Wang and the head of the Wang family sat at the head. Looking at the way Yi Chen ate, the head of the Wang family shook his head. What kind of person is the second son looking for? This person is too unreliable.

Which master eats like this? If it weren't for the Taoist robes he was wearing, he would look more like a rough man.

It seems that Madam's decision is correct and wise.

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but reveal a hint of contempt in her eyes when she looked at Yi Chen.

Fortunately, she urgently invited the highly respected Taoist Master Baihe from her mother's home, otherwise...it would have been terrible.

Eh….. (End of this chapter)
