Chapter 675: The brothers eat chicken legs and talk about their future. There are frequent suicides

Qingchen ran to play with his senior brothers, and asked the four senior brothers who were cleaning the front hall to take a quick rest.

The senior brothers liked him very much, and they had almost finished cleaning, so they followed the advice of the junior brother and took a break while chatting with him.

Junior Brother is leaving, and there will be few opportunities to meet in the future. Even if Junior Brother Qingchen comes back to see them, they may not be on duty at the Taoist temple. They really don't want to part with this cute and well-behaved Junior Brother.

Qingchen quickly took out four large chicken legs from his storage bag and distributed them to his senior brothers. He told them, "This is a gift for you senior brothers.

"Brothers, you have been fighting for a long time, so you must be very hungry. Let's eat some chicken legs to fill our stomachs. Chicken legs taste even better when you are hungry. Brothers, please try them quickly."

After the four senior brothers took the chicken leg, they asked Qingchen if he had given it to the master.

Qingchen told them not to worry, saying that the master had already given it to them.

Qingchen saw that the brothers were reluctant to eat the chicken legs, so he stepped forward, tore open the packaging of the chicken legs in each brother's hand, and then put them back in their hands.

He also took out another chicken leg from the storage bag, tore open the packaging bag, and touched the chicken legs with those of his senior brothers one by one. Then he said "Let's do it", and started to eat them.

The chicken legs were so delicious that the brothers could not resist the tempting aroma. They were tempted to take small bites and savor them carefully.

They were reluctant to eat it, because although the chicken drumstick was big, it was only enough for them to eat three or four bites. They rarely had such delicious food.

Even if you go to the deceased's home to pray for the soul, the host will only serve a few pieces of meat. The taste is also very ordinary, not as delicious as this chicken leg, which makes people unable to stop eating.

The five brothers ate chicken legs while talking about what happened to them recently. Finally, the topic turned to Qingchen's future. Although the brothers were reluctant to let their junior brothers leave, it would be extremely lucky if they followed the gods to work in the hell barrier and accumulated a lot of merit.

As his seniors, they were of course happy for him and fully supported him in pursuing his future.

After talking about Qingchen's future, they talked about the future of Xuantian Temple. The four brothers lamented, "For several months, the number of ghost hunting errands for the brothers has become less and less. There are even fewer demons who dare to do evil openly.

The fellow disciples of Xuantian Temple could not get any decent jobs, and relying on the salvation of the dead and the decreasing incense offerings was not enough to support their living and cultivation needs."

Qingchen said: "Brothers, rest assured, I will have at least 100 taels of silver in salary every year, which can be used to subsidize the expenses of the temple.

My uncle Xiao is kindhearted and generous. She has already made an agreement with Master that she will be responsible for the living needs of the injured Taoist friends living in the cave.

Uncle Master will definitely send various supplies to the temple in the future."

After hearing this, the four brothers felt less worried, but as so many Taoists practicing, they couldn't rely on their brother and uncle to support them. They had to be able to support themselves.

However, it was not possible to find a suitable job for a while to provide a long-term livelihood for the brothers. The five of them thought hard, but apart from mining the wasteland behind the Taoist temple and growing more food, they could not come up with any good ideas.

Fortunately, the temporary difficulties of the Taoist temple have been solved. Thanks to the generous donations from Qingchen's new master and uncle, there are now a large amount of food and cultivation materials in the warehouse, and everyone will not go hungry for at least three years.

With a family foundation, if we work hard to find things to do, earn more money and save a little, we can still get by in the Taoist temple.

After they finished discussing the main topic, they started talking about the strange things that other brothers had recently come back to tell about.

I don't know why, but recently in the nearby counties and state capitals, there have been some young men and women from wealthy families who were originally fine, but suddenly they were looking for death and trying all kinds of ways to commit suicide.

Such strange incidents happened repeatedly, which had alarmed the court and the emperor. The court ordered the police to solve the case within a time limit.

In some places, government offices, from county magistrates to constables and detectives, were required to sign a military order; if they failed to solve the case within the deadline, they would be dismissed.

This is a headache for local officials and detectives. Government offices in various places have posted notices, asking those with information to report it, and there will be a generous reward!

The various farces of suicide by young masters and young ladies were compiled into storybooks in restaurants and teahouses and became a hot topic.

Qingchen had not only been away for a few days, but even on weekdays, he was strictly required by his master to go out with his master to catch ghosts or practice in the Taoist temple. The gossip that his brothers knew about would not reach his ears.

So, Qingchen had no idea about the increasing number of suicides starting two months ago!

He immediately asked his fellow apprentices, "My fellow apprentices, does anyone know how much the bounty is? How about we think of a way to help the government investigate the case and get the bounty, and do great merit at the same time?"
