Mysterious Catastrophe

"what!"

"There are tigers!"

"What a big white tiger!"

"There is a person riding on it!"

"Is that a Taoist priest? If he can subdue the white tiger, he must have magic power!"

……

Sure enough, Aaron once again caused a sensation.

At first, the flow of people was a little daunting, but when they saw Xiaoyu obediently queuing behind a caravan, they couldn't help being amazed.

Riding on the back of the white tiger, it was the first time for Aaron to look at the first city of Songchao.

The capital city claims to have a population of over one million and is the richest city in the world, so it is extremely lively.

In the outer city alone, there are nine gates of Weizhou, Chenqiao, Xincao, Xinsong, Chenzhou, Nanxun, Dailou, Wansheng, and Guzi.

In addition to the nine land gates, there are also imports and exports such as Dongxi Water Gate and Chenzhou Water Gate. Daily logistics converge, and the wharf is open day and night.

"I heard that there are eight sceneries in this capital city. They are for Gen Yue Xingyun, Yishan Sunset, Jinliang Xiaoyue, Zisheng Xunfeng, Baigang Winter Snow, Dahe Spring Waves, Blowing Taiqiu Rain, Kaibao Morning Bell... You have to visit it too. "

Just as Aaron was thinking wildly, the chaos ahead finally subsided, and then everyone stepped aside one after another, asking him to enter the city first.

Xiaoyu held her head high and strode forward.

After all, if it doesn't leave, those cows and horses don't dare to move!

When Aaron came to the gate of the city, he saw nervous defenders surrounding him.

He smiled, and took out the ultimatum: "Poverty Dao Xu Lingzi, this is the ultimatum, and I came here for His Majesty's feast for thousands of years!"

A military officer looked at the certificate and bowed his hands politely: "The Taoist priest is polite..."

Probably the people in the capital have their own pride, and there are many places to watch animals in the capital, such as the Tianzhu Snake Man and the Beast Taming Troupe in the Western Regions.

That's why the tiger was pure white, which surprised the officer: "So... I invite the Taoist priest to enter the city. The Qianqiu Banquet is on the fifteenth day of this month. I just ask the Taoist priest to take good care of the white tiger, otherwise it will hurt people." Not joking."

"Thank you for the reminder, Pindao understands."

Aaron nodded, took back the ultimatum, and Shi Shi ran into the city.

"The team is... this..."

Looking at the back of Aaron leaving, a soldier came over, a little unwillingly said: "Just let him go like this?"

"He is a Taoist priest and has the name of Qianqiu Banquet, what can you do?" Dui Zheng rolled his eyes and said.

"But if the white tiger hurts someone..."

"Hehe... If the white tiger hurts people, it is also the matter of the Imperial City Secretary and the city's yamen servants, so what have we got to do with it?"

The team was sneering, and went back to maintain order.

Although Baihu is auspicious, but he is just a low-level military officer, and there is no one above him, so what's the use of worrying about these things?

On the contrary, the top dignitaries gathered in this capital city, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, someone might have made this idea.

At that time, I am afraid there will be a good show to watch.

Chapter 798 The Great King Kong Temple

Beijing.

As soon as he entered the city, Aaron felt as if a picture scroll was slowly unfolding to him.

The official road is spacious, crowded with pedestrians, and there are various shops on both sides.

In addition to the common restaurants and teahouses, the most eye-catching are all kinds of arenas, cockfights and dogs, all-encompassing.

There are even horn skills of female sumo wrestlers!

Although, Aaron doubted what these guests were seeing.

Under the sumo ring, a group of old men waved their gambling tickets and watched the female sumo wrestlers play, but they were also very happy.

The key point is that Aaron noticed that many people are not using silver at this time, but banknotes of various colors. Obviously, Dasong's paper currency has penetrated into the people and has been widely recognized.

Of course, the seductive people with deep eyes and high nose, and the charming orchids from the Western Regions are also indispensable...

However, the most beautiful boy on the street at this time is undoubtedly Aaron!

In the capital city, passers-by heard the roar of a tiger that frightened all beasts.

Immediately afterwards, a tiger as white as jade, carrying a young Taoist priest on its back, came slowly from the end of Tianjie, like a fairy.

At this moment, even the well-informed and well-informed people of the capital could not help but kneel down and kowtow, praying for the protection of the gods.

'How...'

'Q points are still too few! '

Aaron walked leisurely all the way, checking his breath count, but secretly sighed in his heart.

He feels that most people are still looking for fun, since they are looking for fun, naturally they will not have any idea of ​​obeying him and serving him to death.

This is lifeless!

"It's not a good thing to know too much, it's not easy to cheat..."

Sighing in his heart, Aaron rode Xiaoyu to the busiest commercial area of ​​Dajingang Temple.

Well, although you have a Taoist certificate, you can theoretically go to any Taoist temple to place an order, and there are many famous Taoist temples in the capital.

However, colleagues are enemies!

Aaron came here to deceive the canonization this time, and he didn't want to hit the door casually.

But the Great King Kong Temple is different.

As the temple with the largest area in the capital, each of these masters gave full play to their subjective initiative and vigorously developed business.

Not only contracted out a large area of ​​land and shops, started a comprehensive shopping mall business, but also ended up in person, from renting out homestays to intermediaries, to selling various commodities, selling roast pork, and even lending usury... as long as you make money Just do what you want, it can be described as a model and model of commercialization!

'Monks and Taoists are not the same after all. '

'And... when you come out to do business, you must pay attention to your reputation, and you can't betray your customers... at least on the surface. '

Aaron rode a white tiger all the way to the Daxiangguo Temple. It was indeed bustling and bustling with crowds of people, and it was even more lively than before.

He went to a master who was in charge of renting houses, and rented a small courtyard near the Great King Kong Temple. The rent was not bad, five taels of silver a month.

Most importantly, the first five days are free of rent!

Allen Aaron, a migrant worker who suffered from high housing prices and rents in big cities in his previous life, was shocked: "Master Huide, why is this so?"

The great monk in charge of house leasing in the Great King Kong Temple had kind eyes and kind eyes, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha: "The Taoist priest doesn't know something, but the imperial court has a rule that 'every household rents a house, exempt from five days as the limit for repairs, and the sixth Riqilao'... After all, it is inconvenient to move, and it needs to be cleaned up."

After Master Huide's explanation, Aaron learned that in Dasong City, in addition to rent discounts, there is actually an official agency called "Building and Store Affairs" that is responsible for the management of public housing, which is equivalent to low-rent housing, and the rent is even cheaper. The time only needs 500 Wen, which is half a tael of silver a month.

It's not the cheapest, though.

In the corners of the capital, in the back streets and alleys, as long as you look for it patiently, there are always some other old and poor, the rent can be settled on a daily basis, three to five yuan a day, and about one hundred yuan a month...

Of course, Aaron didn't like it.

Therefore, he directly paid ten taels of silver, and settled it for two months first.

After he said goodbye and left, a young monk came out and looked at Aaron's back curiously: "This Taoist is obviously capable of subduing the white tiger. Master, why do you tell him this? What if he doesn't want to rent a house anymore?" , we will be at a loss..."

"Amitabha."

Huide clasped his hands together, proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said with a smile: "We open a wide range of philanthropy, business is to pay attention to harmony and wealth... Why should the Taoist think that we are deceiving him? What's more... this Taoist is a capable person Yes, most capable people are arrogant, how can they value those public housing? Let alone the old and the poor? They still want to do business with us... My Buddha is merciful, honesty is the foundation, and only then can we make a lot of money! "

"Master, you are an old man!" The little monk was convinced.

Master Huide smiled without saying a word.

That Taoist came riding a tiger, but instead of going to the Taoist temple to register, he came to live in the Great Vajra Temple. Obviously, his ambition is not small, and he may directly collide with other Taoists.

But this is good, this is good!

Although the Taoist sect is prosperous, the Dao veins are different, so there are many sects, there are many internal struggles, and there is a mess, so it cannot compete with the Brahma sect.

If this Taoist can impact the favor of 'Chongming Dao', the Great King Kong Temple will naturally be happy to see it.

……

Aaron got the key and entered his small courtyard.

He specifically asked for cleanliness, and the yard was well organized, in the style of a courtyard. In addition to the bedroom, quiet room, and kitchen, there is also a small garden and well in the yard. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

Although it has been cleaned by others, it needs to be cleaned again when you live in your own house. It takes time to buy pots, pans, towels and rice.

When the work is over, it is already the time when the lights are on.

At this time, the Great Vajra Temple seemed even more lively, which made Aaron feel a little eager to move.

"I'm going out to find a place to have dinner, and you take a good look at my house."

After instructing Xiaoyu, Aaron washed up, changed into a clean Taoist robe, and went out refreshingly.

The thousand-ply cloth-soled shoes are patched, so they are very comfortable to wear and have good air permeability.

Slightly wet hair was draped over the shoulders, and the refreshing evening breeze was blowing head-on, watching the men and women in the capital, who had finished their busy day and came out to hang out, it was quite interesting.

And Aaron just went around and decided to go to the roast pork shop strongly recommended by Gu Juren.

This shop is famous far and wide, just ask passers-by.

When he arrived at the field, Aaron called out the good guy, and saw a long queue, already lined up, and the business was booming.

There were traffickers and pawns in the queue, scholars in green clothes, servants from rich families, and even a few women in scantily clad clothes, but at this time, they only had one identity, that is, diners and gourmets.

Aaron also stepped forward to line up and took a bamboo stick. Looking at the "Three Hundred Seventy Two" written on it, he couldn't help feeling a little dizzy.

At this moment, a sneaky man approached: "Master Taoist, do you want the number lottery in front? Only one hundred coins..."

'thief! Aaron was very surprised: "What the hell...even have scalpers?" ! '

Chapter 799 Roast Meat

In the end, Aaron jumped in line and sat in front of the barbecue stall.

In front of his table is a long charcoal oven.

Behind the stove was a monk with a shaved head, ring scars all over his head, and bare arms.

Behind the other party, there are also a few young monks who are helping.

The aroma permeated the stall.

All kinds of roasted pork skin, roasted pork belly, and roasted crispy bones are full of burnt aroma. If they are paired with special dipping sauces, it will be even more mouth-watering.

Many diners ate to their heart's content, all kinds of unrestrained behavior, regardless of image.

"The Taoist priest is polite."

The big monk who was grilling the meat was a little hot and sweaty on his forehead, but his hands were not shaking at all, and he was brushing the spices slowly, but when he saw Aaron, his eyes were slightly surprised.

"Wuliang Tianzun...Pindao Xu Lingzi, I have long admired the name of the roast pork of the Great Vajra Temple, so I will give each of them a copy."

"Amitabha, Taoist priest, wait a moment..."

The great monk nodded.

A moment later, a roasted pork skin was placed in front of Aaron.

Aaron took a piece, and it was grilled quite well, especially at this time when the spices are precious, and the roast meat is full of spices, which shows the sincerity of the store.

He ate a piece of roasted pork skin, which was scorched and chewy.

Afterwards, the streaky pork belly is fat and thin, and the mouth is full of oil. The roasted pig's trotters are crispy and smooth. If they are paired with special wine, it will kill the oil and relieve the greasy, making people want to eat more and more.

And the last grilled pork bone, the deep bone marrow is even more addictive, with endless aftertaste.

After eating and drinking, it is served with a bowl of broth, the original soup turns into the original food, and it is the day of the gods in the world.

In fact, the little monks moved very fast, and often the diners rushed away immediately after eating to receive the next one.

Only Aaron was treated differently, watching him drink the soup slowly, and the other monks ignored him.
