Chapter 352: Practice Well, Taishan Divine Envoy
After the meal, even Taoist Xuan Xiao, who was known for his serious demeanor, smiled.
Gong Mengbi is good at networking and knows how to make friends.
He is good at catching small fish with a dip net, and he is also good at crossing the sea to fish for dragon whales.
When dealing with people like the City God of Jinhua, you need to use power and responsibility to put pressure on them and lure them with benefits. When dealing with people like Taoist Master Xuanxiao and Abbot Huiming, you need to make friends with them with sincerity and impress them with kindness.
If Taoist Master Xu Xuanxiao and Abbot Huiming benefited from it, they would feel humiliated and that it was not worthy of their risking their lives and entrusting their lives to it.
But a bowl of vegetarian noodles and a plate of dried tofu are very suitable for their friendship.
This matter started when Gong Mengbi rushed to the Daxian Temple, and ended when Gong Mengbi invited Taoist Xuanxiao and Abbot Huiming to a vegetarian banquet at Anyi Restaurant.
After finishing their meal and drinking tea, the monk and the Taoist took their leave and disappeared in the bustling crowd of Jinhua City.
Gong Mengbi stayed at Anyi Restaurant to reminisce about the past with Fatty Kang and teased Xiao Yier, having a lot of fun.
Gong Mengbi looked at Fatty Kang and said with a smile, "Big brother, good things are coming soon."
Fatty Kang scratched his head and said, "What good news? I haven't had any romantic encounters lately."
Gong Mengbi smiled without saying anything else and asked, "What has Sister Xiangjun been doing these days?"
Fatty Kang said, "She's been busy. First there was drought, then there were locusts. The qi is stagnant and the disaster is severe. Many people are either sick or have been possessed by evil spirits. A few days ago, I asked Xiao Yier to bring her some wine, but she came back in the middle of the night with Xiao Wu and Da Wu, saying she was going to the countryside to exorcise evil spirits. But when she got there, she found out it wasn't evil spirits that had struck her, but illnesses."
"She used to be just a witch, but now she also does some medical work. Fortunately, she has a natural instinct and can identify herbs, so it's not difficult for her to do so. However, there are many people seeking medicine and witchcraft, so she runs around everywhere and rarely comes back."
Gong Mengbi, on the contrary, thought it was a good thing. The seventh-grade spiritual nourishment god, nourishing the spirit is nourishing the heart. For Xiang Jun, being busy is a good thing.
Gong Mengbi couldn't stay for long, so he picked up Xiao Yi'er and told him, "Practice well, and don't be greedy all the time."
Xiao Yier took a deep breath and held in his stomach as he replied, "Oh, I can still see my toes."
Gong Mengbi looked at Fatty Kang, who grinned and said, "Don't worry, if he doesn't lose weight, I'll show you how I'll deal with him."
Xiao Yier's face suddenly fell, and the flesh on his belly became loose and bulged out.
Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "I'll go first."
Fatty Kang nodded and said, "Go get busy."
Xiao Yier quickly followed Gong Mengbi out. Thinking about how Fatty Kang would urge her to lose weight in the future, she suddenly felt sad: "Uncle Master! Take me away!"
Unfortunately, Gong Mengbi had already disappeared. Only Fatty Kang patted his head from behind and said, "Stop howling. Come, let me train you. If you only eat and don't train, you're just soft meat. Look at me, I eat a lot, but I still don't have much fat."
Xiao Yier looked up at Fatty Kang. Fatty Kang was as big and strong as a mountain. He looked fat, but he was actually strong. His sturdy body looked fat because it was loose and baggy when he was not using any strength.
Xiao Yier knew how Fatty Kang practiced, and immediately struggled to run out, "No, I don't want it!"
Fatty Kang snorted, "Where are you running to? Come back!"
He picked up Xiao Yi'er and carried him on his shoulder, walking towards the backyard as if he were carrying a bag.
Xiao Yier's tears were streaming down his face.
The domestic deer watched from afar and couldn't help but gloat over the misfortune.
But Fatty Kang casually threw the sweat towel hanging around his neck over and said, "Go prepare the food. I want to train him well. You do more work."
"Ah? Ah!" The domestic deer was about to cry.
When Gong Mengbi returned to Lanyin Mountain, Yuliu and Jiaona had been waiting for him for a long time and reported to him about the foxes' practice in the past few days.
After Gong Mengbi took Taoist Xuanxiao and Abbot Huiming to calculate in the lotus pond, they never came back and were busy dealing with the locust god.
Yuliu said, "In the past two days, the foxes have returned one after another. They have already gone through Jinhua County and even visited the nearby Tangxi and Lanxi. They have almost wiped out the locusts that were born in response to the disaster."
Jiaona said, "According to the Dean's instructions, when the foxes drove the flocks of birds to kill the locusts, their true forms were inevitably revealed. However, by using the holy name of the Empress and calling themselves fox messengers, they did not disturb the people. Instead, they gained their respect and spread the Empress's good name."
Gong Mengbi nodded and said, "Okay, there were no accidents, right?"
Yuliu said, "Everything is fine."
Gong Mengbi said, "Yuliu, the world is about to be in chaos. This is both a calamity and an opportunity. Only by having a long-term vision and a firm mind can you seize the opportunities ahead. If you want to open a fox monastery, you must give it more consideration in the future."
Yuliu should be it.
Gong Mengbi told Yuliu about the locust fight and instructed, "The locust plague in Dongyang County will not return. These locusts, which were born to swarm in response to the disaster, will be over after they are slain. In Jinhua County, we have the foxes to help. I've also sent Wenxiu with the divine bird to the more distant areas. However, Dongyang will need another great deity in the future. Tell the foxes to be more respectful when they see Miss Jin."
Taoist Priest Xuanxiao and Abbot Huiming risked their lives, and so did Gong Mengbi. He personally led the locust god into the situation. If it weren't for the fox as a messenger and his auspicious nature, the outcome might not have been good.
It is precisely for this reason that Taoist Master Xuanxiao and Abbot Huiming value him so much and believe that they are of the same kind.
Jin Miss Niang would come back in ten days to collect her reward, and the statue would reside permanently in Jinhua, making her a neighbor. After all, she was a deity of disaster, so she might not have a very good temper. She still had to warn Foxy first to avoid offending her.
Wen Xiu, on the other hand, has been making great strides recently and is gaining momentum.
In Jinhua, he found two fellow Daoists: a five-colored golden pheasant and a white-necked crow, both of whom were mid-level demon immortals. Relying on his training under Gong Mengbi and receiving his guidance in the Wood Dao method, he intimidated the two fellow Daoists and assumed the role of leader, gathering birds to swat down the locusts.
The three of them were much larger and more colorful than other birds, and they often transformed into young men wearing feathered clothes. They were loved by the people for a time, and some people even built temples to worship them.
Wen Xiu followed Gong Mengbi to do things and followed Gong Mengbi to worship Mount Tai Goddess. Although he was not a fox, he often claimed to be the messenger of Mount Tai, claiming that he was following the orders of the Heavenly Fox under Mount Tai Goddess and was granted the title of General who drives away locusts. He learned about 70% of Gong Mengbi's tricks and fooled people under the banner of Mount Tai Goddess without blinking an eye.
Only the white-necked crow often laughed wildly, thinking that he was fooling ordinary people, and was severely beaten by him.
The locust god left and the locusts were gradually eliminated.
Wen Xiu then flew to Lanyin Mountain with his two companions and said, "I told you I'm the divine messenger of Mount Tai, but you never believed me. Today, I'll show you around."
The Golden Pheasant was easy to deal with, but the White-necked Crow cackled and snarled, "Boast! Boast! Boast!"
