Chapter 1 After-Sales Service
001 After-sales service
Taiping Town has not been peaceful recently.
As soon as he got up and walked out of the Taoist temple early in the morning, Xiang Jiannan was shocked by the scene in front of him. On the wet ground under the steps, his elderly master was lying peacefully on the ground with his eyes wide open. There was a group of people standing around him.
They were all familiar faces, and they all looked like they were enduring it with gritted teeth.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
A red light flashed before his eyes, and Xiang Jiannan knew that something was about to happen. This was a signal he would receive after traveling through time. This was the sixth time so far. He didn't know what it specifically represented, but once it appeared, nothing good would happen.
"It's nothing serious. These people said they wanted to tear down our Taoist temple."
Still lying on the ground, Master Xiang Jiannan looked up to the sky as he spoke. His tone was extremely calm. While briefly describing the situation, he also revealed his own way of dealing with it: "If you want to tear down the Taoist temple, you must first step on this poor Taoist!"
The voice was sonorous and powerful, as if he didn't take the matter to heart at all.
What was going on? Seeing that the master on the ground seemed to refuse to communicate with others, Xiang Jiannan admired his courage even when the situation was about to collapse. He turned his eyes to the people facing him and began to seek a solution through the master's body.
Since he traveled to this Taoist temple called Ping'an Temple and became the only little Taoist priest, he has more or less seen some things. As far as the current situation is concerned, the situation is not too tense yet. The people here are simple and honest. The talk of demolishing the Taoist temple is probably just a momentary angry remark. If so many people really started fighting, his master would have been sitting aside crying and wailing. Now he can lie on the ground like a master and successfully block everyone. The intentions of both sides are actually very clear.
I need a peacemaker, and I am the most suitable one.
It can be said that both sides were quite restrained. I don't know how long they remained at the door. They managed to wait until he woke up naturally without any noise. It can be said that they were quite caring towards the little Taoist priest.
"Little Taoist priest, please tell me."
After Xiang Jiannan's eyes swept around, a middle-aged man in the opposite crowd who was obviously the leader spoke. The man looked delicate and gentle, and his manners were very gentle. Although he deliberately raised his voice to show his ferocity, his slightly flushed cheeks betrayed his lack of confidence.
It seems that scholars rarely have arguments with others. Once they start arguing with others, they tend to get nervous and can only use some methods that they have seen but rarely used to strengthen their momentum and show that they are not easy to mess with.
"The amulet that this old Taoist sold us a few days ago went wrong just after one night of use. It's ridiculous to say it can ward off disasters and avoid misfortunes!"
After he said that, seeing that Xiang Jiannan had no expression, the middle-aged man's eyes became more vague. Taking advantage of the moment when his anger broke out, he simply explained why they came to the Taoist temple. It sounded like there was a problem with the after-sales service, but Xiang Jiannan on the opposite side couldn't help rolling his eyes.
The master was actually doing private work behind my back!
There are really people who believe that amulets can bring peace. Besides, even if something happens after you put the amulet on, there is no need to make a fuss so much as to tear down the Taoist temple. Maybe the medicine has just been put on and the effect has not yet taken effect, or maybe the problem your family has encountered is beyond the function of the amulet. In short, as the final producer of the amulet, the Taoist temple will definitely have a reasonable explanation for this.
"You are slandering me!" Before Xiang Jiannan could make any response to the middle-aged man's words, the old Taoist priest who had been lying on the ground for everyone to "admire" spoke. He had already explained clearly about the amulets he had sold before, and when he heard the middle-aged man's slander again, the anger in his heart burst out on the spot.
My own stuff is absolutely genuine. Even if there is a problem with its efficacy, I cannot allow others to say so! I must refute it!
This not only involves the future reputation of Ping'an Temple, but will also cause the money that has already been obtained to be returned. No matter from which angle, it must not be admitted at this time. Once admitted, how can he have the face to meet the masters enshrined in the temple.
"The amulets I gave your family a few days ago can only ward off disasters and avoid misfortunes, but they have no effect on ghosts, demons, and evil things. I made this very clear to your grandfather at the beginning."
“How shameless!”
Hearing Xiang Jiannan's master repeat his classic explanation again, the middle-aged man, whose emotions were already unstable, almost couldn't help but want to kick him.
The old Taoist priest was now really eloquent, and had completely forgotten the disgusting look on his face when he patted his chest and made a promise in his family's mansion that day. If he hadn't said that his amulet was effective for what his family had encountered that day, who would be willing to spend a lot of money to buy those messy papers? His old man was still lying in bed, and he had no other way at the moment, so he could only run to Ping'an Temple with a lot of anger to vent it.
This old Taoist priest is really brave to lie and leave his real address. If his father hadn't given instructions before he came, the people who accompanied him today would not only be these servants. He also has people in the government, so it would not be a problem to convict him.
Master, please don't say any more. Feeling that he had been influenced by his master without realizing it, Xiang Jiannan was also quite embarrassed after hearing the middle-aged man's angry curse. He had roughly understood the situation, that is, when his master was secretly selling the amulets without his knowledge, he happened to meet a man who had trouble at home, and the other party did not get the effect he wanted after purchasing the amulets, so he came to Guanqian with people in a rage early in the morning to question him.
The problem they encountered must be quite serious. In my opinion, they must have run out of options and could only come to Ping An Temple to release their emotions.
"Master, please get up."
Knowing that he would have to come up with a solution that both sides could accept, Xiang Jiannan dealt with it without delay. He called the master who was still lying on the ground, and then raised his head and whispered to the middle-aged man who had stopped having an attack:
"Wait a moment, I'll be right back."
When he walked out of the Taoist temple again, he had a whisk in his hand that looked quite old.
Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)
"Lead the way, and I will let you take a look at your house."
"you?"
Until Xiang Jiannan came down the steps with the whisk, the middle-aged man and the servants who came with him were still dumbfounded, their eyes full of distrust, and they almost questioned him on the spot. Then, they had no choice but to turn around and lead the way.
They could still accept the practical actions given by Xiang Jiannan, mainly because there was really no other way if they did not accept them. Compared with the old Taoist priest, the young Taoist priest seemed much more reliable. But how could a mere disciple like him control what happened in the mansion? Several waves of people had been sent away coming and going, and they had taken away countless talismans and magic tools. Fortunately, the old Taoist priest also came along.
"Disciple, you are taking the initiative again."
Following the team and walking slowly at the end, Xiang Jiannan's master was very reluctant at this time. This apprentice had become more and more disobedient recently, and insisted on getting involved in the things that he was about to settle. This style of behavior was contrary to his original idea.
Isn't such an unreasonable behavior equivalent to admitting that you have indeed deceived others?
"Then are you willing to pay the money you earned from selling the amulets?"
Knowing very well that his master would never do this, Xiang Jiannan flicked his whisk without saying much, acting more like a master than his master, with a righteous look on his face as he quickened his pace along with the marching team.
Ghostly and evil things?
What happened in Ping'an Town recently?
