The Chronicles of Longevity on Liaozhai Road

After walking this distance, the old branch secretary didn't feel tired, and he was panting like this. Could it be that there is something wrong with his body?

Yang Heng shook his head, shook his thoughts out of his head, and then came to the door with the key.

Only then did he look up at the plaque hanging in front of the door, and saw three large characters on it - Dengtianguan.

Opening the Guanmen, with a slight push, there was a creaking sound, and the heavy wooden door was gently pushed open.

Yang Heng entered the Taoist temple with his luggage and looked around.

I saw that the front yard of this small Taoist temple was only about forty to fifty square meters, but there was a towering tree in the middle of the yard.

Behind the big tree is the main hall of the Taoist temple.

Yang Heng is now a Taoist priest no matter what. When he came to the Taoist temple for the first time, he naturally had to burn incense to the gods he enshrined.

So Yang Heng put the luggage in his hands outside the main hall, and then opened the door of the main hall with the key.

After entering the door, looking up, there is no difference between what is enshrined in this hall and other Taoist temples.

They are Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Taiqing Daode Tianzun.

Yang Heng saluted first, and then came to the altar, where he saw some sandalwood.

Yang Heng hurriedly lit three sticks of incense, then respectfully placed them in the incense burner, then knelt down and kowtowed three times.

After this set of etiquette was over, he stood up and looked at the three gods enshrined above again.

At the beginning, Yang Heng didn't feel anything wrong, but when he looked at the original Tianzun in the center, he felt more and more awkward.

I always feel that there is something different from the Yuanshi Tianzun enshrined in other places.

In this way, Yang Heng stood under His Highness, carefully looked at the statue of Yuan Tianzun for a long time, and finally found something strange.

It turned out that the original Tianzun was wearing a stone ring on his finger, no wonder Yang Heng felt awkward.

Up to now, Yang Heng felt that the former host must have been idle and bored, so he brought it up for this Yuanshi Tianzun.

Yang Heng sighed, it seems that this Taoist temple is indeed deserted, otherwise, how could the previous host be forced to play with the statue.

He had no choice but to take it off by himself, otherwise, if his master came to inspect it later and found that the statue was messed up, he wouldn't care if it was the former master.

Yang Heng moved a chair and placed it in front of the altar, then stood up carefully, and bowed again and again to the three gods on the altar.

"The three patriarchs forgive me, Xiaodao didn't mean to offend."

After praying, Yang Heng stood on the altar, came to the center of the original statue of Tianzun, saluted again, then stretched out his hand tremblingly, and took off the stone ring.

After taking off the stone ring, Yang Heng took a step back and saluted again before preparing to step down from the altar.

In the end, he forgot that he was wearing a Taoist robe, and the lower skirt of the robe tripped Yang Heng.

At this moment, he immediately lost his balance, and fell down the altar involuntarily.

But now Yang Heng has only one thought in his mind: It's over, offending the gods will be retribution.

Then his head hit the altar, his body also fell to the ground, and then he fell unconscious.

When Yang Heng passed out, the blood flowing from his head slowly touched the stone ring in his hand.

As soon as the stone ring touched the blood, it immediately glowed red, and after the red light ended, there was another burst of colorful light.

The light slowly enveloped Yang Heng, followed by another burst of bright flashes.

When everything calmed down, Yang Heng had disappeared from the main hall of Dengtian Temple.

In the current hall, only Patriarch Sanqing was left there watching everything in front of him.

I don't know how long it took before Yang Heng woke up in a daze.

As soon as Yang Heng woke up, he felt a chill all over his body.

This made him stand up involuntarily, and then tightened the Taoist robe on his body, then opened his eyes and looked around.

When he saw clearly where he was, Yang Heng was immediately dumbfounded and even panicked.

It turns out that this place is no longer the small Taoist temple, but a wilderness.

Judging from the degree of withering of the surrounding vegetation and the gusts of cold wind, it seemed that it was already late autumn.

But the problem is that Yang Heng was still in midsummer just now, and he felt hot even if he wore more clothes. Now it's late autumn, which makes him confused and scared.

"Who's kidding me?"

Yang Heng shouted loudly to the surroundings.

"Is Yang Kang you? Don't hide, I've seen you."

As a result, Yang Heng yelled for seven or eight minutes, but no one paid any attention to him.

When Yang Heng was helpless, a roar of wild beasts suddenly came from the distant mountains.

Yang Heng immediately trembled in fright. Hearing the sound, this beast must be not a good person. You should leave here quickly and find someone to ask about the situation.

Thinking of this, Yang Heng hurriedly wrapped his Taoist robe tightly, and ran towards the foot of the mountain.

Fortunately, the journey was smooth, and when Yang Heng ran to the foot of the mountain panting, the beast on the mountain did not come out.

It wasn't until Yang Heng came to the foot of the mountain that he discovered that there was a small village about ten miles away.

This made Yang Heng very pleasantly surprised, and regardless of his fatigue, he continued to run towards the small mountain village.

There is a saying that Wangshan ran dead horses. Yang Heng looked at the foot of the mountain and saw that the small village was not far away. When he really went to the small village, he felt that the distance was so far away.

Yang Heng walked for about an hour before arriving at the entrance of the village.

But when he got here, Yang Cheng didn't dare to go any further.

It's not that there are any ghosts and ghosts on the opposite side, but that these peasants are dressed too strangely.

I saw that these people were all wearing ancient clothes and wearing buns on their heads.

This made Yang Hengxing a little puzzled. He put his hand on the awning and scanned around, but he didn't find the camera.

But at any rate, Yang Heng had also read a few time-traveling books. Facing the strange situation in front of him, Yang Heng soon decided that he might have time-traveled.

Chapter 004

Yang Heng hesitated for a long time at the gate of the villa, and finally decided to go in to check the situation.

After making up his mind, Yang Heng tidied up his clothes, then pretended to be careless, and slowly walked towards the gate of the village.

And at this time, some villagers who were coming and going at the gate of the village cast curious eyes when they saw the strange Taoist priest approaching.

Yang Heng's face turned red when he was watched, but he still pretended to be calm.

When Yang Heng walked to the gate of the village, he saw several old men playing chess under a big tree.

Yang Heng hurried over, cupped his hands at these old men and said, "Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun, old men, what kind of land is this?"

Hearing Yang Heng's question, these veterans raised their heads and looked Yang Heng up and down. One of them seemed to have some prestige, so he stood up and bowed to Yang Heng.

"This Taoist priest, this is Kaoshantun. I'm afraid you are going to the county seat?"

Where is Yang Heng going to any county, but he still nodded pretendingly.

The old man hurriedly pointed to a road with his finger and said to Yang Heng: "Follow this road, and you can reach the county seat by walking south for more than 50 miles."

Yang Heng frowned when he heard this. He is now penniless, hungry and thirsty. He might have starved to death before he reached the county seat.

At this time, another old man saw that although Yang Heng's Taoist robe was not bad, but his body was covered with mud, and he didn't have a bag with him, he knew that this Taoist priest might encounter difficulties.

It was also because the old man had a good heart, so he stood up and invited Yang Heng to his house for a vegetarian meal.

How could Yang Heng refuse now? Hearing the old man's invitation, he hurriedly thanked him again and again.

So the old man took Yang Heng to the village.

Along the way, Yang Heng asked the old man's name.

It turns out that this seemingly very old man is only less than 50 years old now, and his surname is Wang and his name is Wang Erdan.

There is also seven or eight acres of thin land in this backing village. The two sons of the family have already married, and the grandchildren will leave.

It was precisely because his family still had some savings that Yang Heng was brought home to treat him. Others, who were just renting the fields of wealthy households in the village, would not have the ability.

When they came to a fairly decent private house in the middle of the village, the old man knocked on the door and shouted to the inside: "Old woman, open the door."

"Hey, why are you in a hurry?"

With this sound, the door of the small courtyard was opened, and an old woman appeared.

Yang Heng took a look from behind, but he really couldn't figure out the age of this old lady.

He looked at it just now, this old man Wang is at least 70 to [-] years old, but he is less than [-] years old.

"Old lady, this is Daoist Xitan, prepare some fast food."

The old woman looked Yang Heng up and down, didn't say anything, just agreed and went to the kitchen.

Old man Wang brought Yang Heng to the main room, asked Yang Heng to sit down, and personally poured him a bowl of hot water and put it beside him.

Since Yang Heng woke up, he hasn't had any water yet, and he has run such a long distance, and now his throat is starting to smoke.You're welcome when you see this bowl of water, and you drank it all in one gulp.

Yang Heng drank a bowl of water and finally felt refreshed. He wiped his mouth with the sleeve of his robe, stood up, and bowed deeply to the old man.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang."

"You don't have to be polite, Daoist."

After a while, the old woman outside brought in a bowl of mixed noodles, without any seasoning, just put some sauces casually.

The old woman was a little embarrassed, and put the noodles in front of Yang Heng.

"Don't be offended by the Taoist priest, our farmer has nothing to entertain, so you have neglected the Taoist priest."

How could Yang Heng be surprised now? He stood up and bowed to the old woman first, then picked up the noodles and began to eat with a snort.

And Mr. Wang sat next to Yang Heng, seeing how delicious he was eating, he also smiled.

While Yang Heng was enjoying his noodles, he heard someone shouting outside the courtyard: "Old Wangtou, are you there?"

As soon as Old Master Wang heard the voice, he stood up immediately, and first said to Yang Heng: "Please sit here, Taoist priest, I will go back as soon as I go."

Yang Heng also hurriedly put the noodles on the table, and bowed back, "The old man has something to do, just do it."

Only then did Mr. Wang leave the main room.

Seeing that Old Man Wang had left, Yang Heng sat at the table and ate his noodles with a snort.

Maybe it was because he was hungry, but Yang Heng was very satisfied with this bowl of noodles. Without much effort, he wiped out all the noodles in a big bowl.

Yang Heng sat on the seat and touched his stomach, and let out a long breath.Also rejoice in your own good fortune.

At first, I thought I would have to endure hunger, but I didn't expect to have a full meal just after entering this small mountain village.

While Yang Heng was eating there, Mr. Wang brought in a well-dressed middle-aged man from outside.

When Yang Heng saw someone coming in, he quickly stood up.

Mr. Wang bowed to Yang Heng, and then introduced to Yang Heng: "Master, this is the housekeeper of Wang Dashan's family in the village——Steward Liu. He has something to ask for your help."

Yang Heng felt a little guilty when he heard this.Because he has already seen that, this housekeeper Liu invited him to go, and he might have to preside over the funeral.

Everyone must be wondering, this Yang Heng is just a mortal body, how could he know so clearly.

It turned out that although Steward Liu was well dressed, he was dressed in white, and it looked like he was showing filial piety to someone.

Butler Liu saw that Mr. Wang had introduced himself and also went up, saluted and said: "Master, I am sorry, a concubine of my master died suddenly, please ask the priest to read some scriptures about the past life for her, so that I can help you She was reincarnated safely."

After hearing this, Yang Heng was a little worried. He had only been a Taoist priest for a few days, and he had only read about the obituary ceremony in books, and had never experienced it himself.

Seeing that Yang Heng didn't speak, Butler Liu thought he wanted some benefit, so he said, "This time, I won't let the Taoist priest be busy for nothing. After the matter is over, I will give you five taels of silver."

When Yang Heng heard that the other party gave five taels of silver, he immediately put aside all his original scruples.

He is short of money now, and he doesn't know if he can go back this time through time travel. If he really can't go back, he has to find a job, otherwise he will starve to death soon.

And with these five taels of silver, it was just enough for him to relax for a while and understand when it was time to time travel.

"Since this is the case, Pindao will not shirk it. When shall we set off?"

"Master, we can leave now."

"In that case, please ask Master Liu to lead the way."

Butler Liu gave another salute like Yang Hengxing, and then he went out first.
