Part-Time Taoist Priest

Liu Lingtong asked curiously, "What unique skill is that?"

How can you say that Shanglu God is also an innate wood spirit, maybe it has some unique abilities. Seeing that Shanglu God is much more kind than before, Liu Lingtong dared to ask.

Shang Lushen: "I can't tell you now, I will tell you when you perform well. I can only tell you that this method can make Xie Lingya fascinated!"

It has been out for so long, of course it knows what it means to teach the apprentice to starve to death the master, it has to save a hand!

"Okay." Liu Lingtong didn't doubt it when he heard it exaggerate, and nodded honestly, "Then when will you come back?"

Shi Changxuan moved away with Shang Lushen, and now it is the only one to absorb the essence of Yuehua every night. It turned out that it was okay, but now that the relationship with Shanglushen has improved, Liu Lingtong asked.

Shang Lushen suddenly stopped talking, because Xie Lingya came over suddenly, and said abruptly: "What are you two talking about!"

The two little wooden figures fell silent, Xie Lingya straightened up unsurprisingly, hey, it's still the same.But he was used to it, and he took double servings of food.

Shi Changxuan looked at it for a while, and then said: "I copied the scriptures, it's time to confess to the master."

Daily incense must be indispensable. Every [-]th day of the new year, Shi Changxuan, a disciple, has to show his filial piety. If Wang Yuji is free, he will show his spirit to guide him.

When the two arrived in the room, they laid out offerings and lit incense first, so that Wang Yuji would know that they were coming.

After a while, the cigarette changed from straight upwards to twists and turns. Xie Lingya knew that his uncle had manifested, but only the incense had changed.

Shi Changxuan read "Baoyang Notes", and Xie Lingya also told him some of it before, so he reported the learning results at this time.

The thin smoke and smoke circled around, forming a "good" character, and then dissipated.

When the incense was about to burn out, Shi Changxuanfang said respectfully: "I will study hard and take good care of my younger brother. Please rest assured, sir."

The incense burnt to the last bit, and the smoke dispersed. Xie Lingya was a little embarrassed when he heard Shi Changxuan's words. He remembered that Shi Changxuan also praised him in front of the memorial tablet. They are all very happy... Of course, my uncle is also very happy now, but his face is hot.

Xie Lingya packed his things as if nothing had happened, and showed Shi Changxuan a new copy of "Baoyang Notes".

When Shi Changxuan received the book, their fingers touched each other. He stared at Xie Lingya's hand for a while and said, "Last time you said you wanted to learn swordsmanship. Now that your injury has healed, do you still want to learn?"

That was all said during the natural observation, Xie Lingya didn't expect him to mention it again, but he thought it would seem petty if he didn't agree, so he said: "...learn."

Shi Changxuan said in the same way: "Okay. I will silently write down the sword manual and choose another day to learn the sword."

He took Shang Lushen back and hung it on his shoulder, and Xie Lingya nodded in response, "Okay."

Shang Lushen groaned on his shoulder and said, "It's really promising."

Shi Changxuan: "??"

Shang Lushen said contemptuously: "You know it yourself!"

Shi Changxuan: "..."

……

Mr. Wuchang Ning Wanlai, a non-famous student in Fuyang City, is carrying out an important event today, which is a blind date. The girl introduced by his parents and friends met in a hotel room. After a few chats with the introducer, he went to Went to the next table.

Ning Wanlai talked about his job and chatted with the girl, not saying that there was any special spark, but for the time being, he didn't find any disagreement between the three views.

Thinking of this, Ning Wanlai inquired obliquely again: "What do you think of the theory of ghosts and gods?"

The girl smiled, and then said: "Isn't that all feudal superstition, but I think that constellations are sometimes quite accurate, of course I don't believe this."

Ning Wanlai said in his heart that this is not a contradiction, do you think it is correct or do you not believe it?

However, is this an acceptable unscientific event?

Ning Wanlai was thinking about it, when suddenly he felt cold, he knew it was not good, this is still a blind date, why is he going to work today, could it be God's will?

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry, so excuse me." Ning Wanlai hurriedly stood up and said.

The girl was stunned, "What's wrong?"

Ning Wanlai said vaguely: "The unit is urgent. I'm really sorry, it was too sudden. Can we make an appointment next time?"

The girl didn't see him calling, but thought she had received a text message, so she stood up and said, "It's okay, work is important."

The introducer next to him was very surprised, pulled him and said: "What's the situation, can't you push it? What's wrong with this!"

"No way, I will push if I can." Ning Wanlai smiled wryly.

The introducer glanced at the girl, pulled him aside to elaborate, "What's the matter with you! When did your unit work overtime?"

Ning Wanlai didn't expect that he knew his unit quite well, and said awkwardly: "It's really urgent."

The introducer said displeasedly: "Girls here are very important. You look so beautifully dressed. You just came and left within 10 minutes. No matter how helpless you are, what do people think? What do you think, really?" Is there something urgent? Don't you want to?"

"No, I really have something to do." Ning Wanlai was a little anxious, and talked with the introducer for a while before he was able to escape, but before he reached the door, his body froze and he passed out.

The introducer and the girl rushed forward, and the girl thought to herself, could it be because she was sick that she fell into a blind date...

After the soul left the body, Ning Wanlai wore official clothes and met Wang Wu. Wang Wu looked at the sign and said, "Today you go to a certain household on Baiyang Street in the west of the city. The ghosts are haunting them, drive them away, the locks should be locked. It must be done well, this is a case that has been registered in front of the old man, and it is said that it is an order directly from above."

Ning Wanlai nodded, wrote down the address information, and went by himself.

He lamented in his heart, from being as timid as a mouse at the beginning, to now performing errands alone, because of this "part-time job", his courage has increased a lot, and he doesn't know when he will be a head!

When Ning Wanlai arrived at the house, he saw that it was a dormitory for singles, and there was only one person sleeping with his head covered. It was Cheng Xin. His eyeballs were still rolling, obviously he had dreamed of something.

Ning Wanlai got into Cheng Xin's dream, it turned out that there were three or four ghosts haunting him, some begged softly, some showed fierce looks, Cheng Xin was very annoyed, it was all in the dream, He still looks like he wants to take a nap, it seems that he is very tired.

"Presumptuous!" Ning Wanlai felt a sense of responsibility, shouted, and threw out the ghost chain, trapping one of the ghosts.

Those lonely ghosts saw Ning Wanlai, and were so frightened that they hurriedly begged for mercy: "Master Ning, we didn't harm anyone, we just asked this gentleman for help."

Fuyang is not particularly big. Ning Wanlai is mainly on duty in the urban area, because he is impermanent and has obvious characteristics. After a period of time, many ghosts know about it, and they have heard of it.

Ning Wanlai only heard from Wang Wu that they were pestering Cheng Xin, and he didn't know the specific reason, but he was not interested, and said with a cold face: "Presumptuous, this matter has been reported, and it's on the magistrate's desk."

A group of lonely souls and wild ghosts looked at each other in blank dismay. How could they even end up at the Lord City God's place for such a trivial matter?Damn, what is the origin of this Cheng Xin!

Ning Wanlai didn't tell them. Wang Wu said that this was ordered by the provincial government, and he was afraid that they would be scared out of their wits. "Follow me back today to receive an education. If you commit another crime in the future, you will be sentenced directly."

How could the ghosts dare to refute, they bowed their heads and folded their arms, and lined up in a line, ready to leave with Ning Wanlai.

Cheng Xin dreamed of ghosts so many times, but this time, a ghost messenger suddenly popped up to help her out. It turned out that the incense in Baoyang Temple that day was really useful?The ghost messenger also said that he was sent by the City God.

"Thank you." Cheng Xin shouted, "I will go to Chenghuang Temple to fulfill my wish, can you tell me your name?"

When he was going to fulfill his vow, he also burned something for the ghost messenger.

Ning Wanlai waved his hand smartly without looking back, "My name is Red Scarf!"

"?" Cheng Xin was stunned. Why, this is also popular in the underworld?

……

A few days later, Ning Wanlai woke up at home, and was told by his parents that the introducer said that the matter was blown away. The girl felt that everyone was not destined, and he sighed in his heart, as expected.

Ning's father and Ning's mother were still calm, and their son was still like this. They were most concerned about impermanence, and urged Ning Wanlai to go to Baoyang Temple, where it was time to chant scriptures and pray for blessings today.

When Ning Wanlai arrived at Baoyang Temple, Xie Lingya led him into the room and began to copy the scriptures. Because he could not make mistakes, he wrote very slowly.

"Mr. Xie, I went on a blind date yesterday, and then I suddenly had to work on an errand, and the blind date was blown." Ning Wanlai copied for an hour, took a break, and asked Xie Lingya, who was drawing a talisman, "Does this mean that my marriage has not yet arrived? Or , I have delayed my marriage by being on errand, can I ask for compensation?"

Xie Lingya said: "You really know how to think, don't worry, even if you are really delayed, you have to claim at least one more chance, and they can't cancel your job of life impermanence."

Ning Wanlai smiled awkwardly, "Mr. Xie understands me..."

After copying the scriptures for a while, he dozed off for some reason. Seeing this, Xie Lingya thought that he was too tired and didn't have a good rest, so he didn't plan.As a result, Ning Wanlai fell asleep, his mouth was still babbling, and his saliva was about to flow out, and he didn't know what good food he dreamed of eating.

After a meal, Ning Wanlai heard Xie Lingya tease him as soon as he opened his eyes: "What good food did you dream about eating? Look at the saliva on this table."

"Braised lion head, pork belly, rice noodle goose..." Ning Wanlai blurted out the names of a few dishes, then smacked the taste, and said to his stomach, "I'll go, Mr. Xie, I'm really full. I just dreamed about eating these Dish, now my stomach is bulging, and there is still an aftertaste in my mouth!"

It was as if he really had a meal, but he obviously just slept.

Xie Lingya suddenly became interested, put down the cinnabar pen and said: "That means someone really made an offering to you. I have only seen the example of waking up from a dream and knowing what it was like to make offerings in the previous life. Do you remember the scene in your dream?"

Ning Wanlai thought about it for a while: "Why do I feel like I'm in a temple, where I'm on an errand?"

"City God's Temple?" Xie Lingya thought about it, "That should be something in this world... That's right, you are born impermanent, someone should have sacrificed you, but it was a ghost sacrifice, so you can enjoy it in your dreams."

Ning Wanlai suddenly thought of Cheng Xin telling himself that he would make a confession, and said in surprise: "No, could it be him... I helped someone yesterday, and he said he was going to make a confession for me, so I casually said that I was a red scarf. Can you also deliver it to my mouth?"

"Red scarf? Why did you give yourself such a stage name!" Xie Lingya wanted to slap the table, "Your words and deeds can be seen by ghosts and gods, and heard by the earth. If you can’t find this person, your part-time unit will check it out and assign it to you. However, your stage name has also been recorded in the book since then!”

"Pfft!" Ning Wanlai spat, "What do you mean! What is recorded in the book!"

Xie Lingya explained calmly: "In the future, everyone in the Yin Temple will know that your surname is Ning, your name is Wan Lai, and your nickname is Red Scarf. After you are finished, the underworld likes to be called by nicknames very much, and then the entire Muyangyin world will know that you are called Red Scarf."

Those ghosts are really gossips. For example, the ghost who saw him for the first time knew to call him Teacher Xie.

Ning Wanlai: "..."

Ning Wanlai said depressedly: "Why do I owe so much... No, why is that person so honest? I just joked that he actually confessed to the 'Red Scarf'. Can you change it? Even if you want a nickname, you still have to give it a nickname Be a little more dignified."

"It's also the name you used to change. After using it, there are files. Can the name be chosen casually? In the future, whatever you do in the underworld to verify your identity, you will report it." Xie Lingya said with a smile, "This red scarf, you should be Let's go."

Ning Wanlai looked desperate, regretful, and could only continue copying the scriptures with tears in his eyes.

……

After copying it twenty times, it will be put on the altar. Ning Wanlai's handwriting is not bad. This scripture can also be used to connect believers and increase blessings. Over time, it is all for Ning Wanlai to resign as soon as possible.

As soon as he went out, Xie Lingya saw that the policeman who came that day came again. If the prayer was not fulfilled, he probably wouldn't have come. It seems that today he came to fulfill his wish, but the old lady didn't come with him.

"Mr. Xie, where should I pray?" Cheng Xin asked. He came here specifically to find Xie Lingya. He heard that Xie Lingya was behind him. He had good eyesight. As soon as he walked to the back, he saw Xie Lingya coming out of the room from a distance. up.

Immediately afterwards, a man in casual clothes walked out from behind Xie Lingya. The two looked at each other for a second, and they both recognized each other.Although Ning Wanlai was still wearing official clothes in the dream, his facial features were not bad.

Cheng Xin: "Red scarf?!"

Ning Wanlai said in despair, "I'm not!"

Cheng Xin: "..."

Ning Wanlai: "..."

Cheng Xin was still a little shocked, why did the yin and errands appear in the yang world? It's broad daylight, right?

Ning Wanlai was also shocked, he ran away after pretending to be forced, and turned around, how embarrassing it was!

Xie Lingya thought of it in a flash. It turned out that these two people met. The one who made an offering to Ning Wanlai before was Cheng Xinbai. He said that he would go to both places that day.

Coincidentally, I met a real person just after the confession.

This was a pain for Cheng Xin, he didn't understand these things, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.He worshiped the City God in Lingguan Temple, and a ghost messenger rescued him, and he met this ghost messenger in Lingguan Temple again and became a real person...

Seeing Cheng Xin's bewildered expression, Xie Lingya held back a smile and waved to him, calling him in, "Did you sacrifice the red scarf at the Town God's Temple just now, and you had braised lion's head, rice vermicelli goose and other dishes."

We all know this, Cheng Xin is already numb, "...Yes."

"He got it." Xie Lingya said, "He is actually born impermanent, that is, a living person who works as a servant in the underworld. Just now we were discussing that someone sacrificed him."

After hearing this, Cheng Xin suddenly realized, "So the red scarf is your nickname when you walk in the underworld?"

Ning Wanlai: "..."

This is simply a public execution. Ning Wanlai never thought that he could still meet the rightful master in the Yangshi, and there must be retribution for talking nonsense. He said lazily: "...well."

Cheng Xin couldn't help laughing, "I just said how the ghost messenger knows about the red scarf."

Such an unfortunate name.Ning Wanlai said bitterly, "Actually, you don't need to get me something to eat."

Speaking of which, if it wasn't for Cheng Xin's sacrifice, Yinmiao would not have checked who the red scarf was, and then registered it for him. If no one used it, it wouldn't count.

Cheng Xin said: "This is what it should be. I sacrifice more to the City God."

"Don't talk about it, it's all fate!" Xie Lingya poured two cups of tea, "Come on, let's replace wine with tea, let's do it."

Ning Wanlai drank a cup of tea with Cheng Xin depressed.

Cheng Xin inquired about his responsibilities again, and asked him if he could disclose information about unjust cases in the future.He is still interested in the kind of true, false and wrongful cases.

Ning Wanlai's face turned pale, "No, you can't reveal the affairs of the underworld, that's a mistake."

Unexpectedly, the discipline in the underworld is so strict, Cheng Xin nodded.

"Then you should worship the City God and ask him to entrust you with the wronged soul." Xie Lingya didn't expect Cheng Xin to have such thoughts. No wonder those lonely ghosts would go to him. If they didn't have any wronged cases, Cheng Xin might have done it Helped, he said.

"Ning Wanlai will at most help you communicate with ghosts and escort ghosts—if the City God really allows you, then most likely he will send Ning Wanlai to help you. You have a strong yang energy, and ordinary ghosts can't get close. However, Ning Wanlai is Part-time job, and has been trying to resign."

Cheng Xin listened to the procedures in the underworld, and felt that the door to a new world had been opened, which was very novel. Finally, when she heard that Ning Wanlai was unwilling to do this, she glanced at him.

Ning Wanlai was a little ashamed, it wasn't his fault for being timid.

But Cheng Xin understood and said: "Just because I dream about ghosts every day, I feel very uncomfortable. You still have to arrest them. It's hard work."

Hell, it's not as simple as two words.

Ning Wanlai suddenly felt comforted a lot by half of his colleagues in Yangjian. The two met in a dream. This was actually the first real meeting, but because of that incident, they had a secret sense of intimacy, and they had a pleasant chat.

Cheng Xin asked: "Mr. Xie, there is one thing I still don't understand. Why is it useful for me to worship the City God here?"

If he is often in contact with the affairs of the underworld, he will know that it is more than useful.

Ning Wanlai didn't know about this matter, nor did he know about the relationship between Xie Lingya and the Provincial City God. Wang Wu's mouth was too strict, he just vaguely knew that Teacher Xie was not simple, like the last time the Ghost King slipped away when he saw him.

Xie Lingya said vaguely: "The relationship between Taoist ghosts and gods is inextricably linked, let the elders pass it on for you."

Cheng Xin suddenly thought he was talking about letting ghosts report.

……

It is said that Cheng Xin was originally an atheist, after this incident, he really took heart and often worshiped the city god.

After a few days, Cheng Xin came to the door again, saying that he was passing by here, and told him that he had been approved by the City God of Fuyang.

Xie Lingya was originally sitting on a chair, but jumped up, "It's really the contemporary Bao Qingtian, can I witness the birth of a legend, buddy, yes! How about it, is there any big case?"

Cheng Xin paused for a moment, then said: "Today the red scarf indeed led the wronged soul into my dream, and asked me to avenge him."

Xie Lingya applauded: "Your case should be kept secret, can I listen?"

Cheng Xin's face was weird for a moment, and then he said: "There is nothing to keep secret, that is, two pigs fought each other in the farmers' market on Wuli Street, one pig fell to his death after being pushed up, and the murderer ran away in the chaos. I just got off work and I am planning to spare time Go and 'arrest' him."

Xie Lingya: "..."

Cheng Xin turned her head unnaturally, and said, "The red scarf tells me that all things are equal after death, and this is also the test of the City God."

It's like this, when people go underground, they have to avenge their grievances, and when livestock go underground, they also have to avenge their grievances. Then, according to their merits and crimes, they will be judged according to their merits and crimes.

Xie Lingya said: "It's the best if you can figure it out. Those who achieve great things don't care about small things, and the heavens will send great responsibilities to people..."

Cheng Xin laughed, "Thank you for your comfort, I believe the City God will see my sincerity."

Xie Lingya: "No, you are Cheng Xinbenxin."

……

After Cheng Xin said goodbye, she chased the murderer Zhu according to the direction given by the ghost.

The murderer pig was considered strong among pigs, so he somehow avoided the crowd and ran to other people's neighborhoods.It also drilled into a family's garden, burying its head in the dense flowers.

Cheng Xin took the rope to tie the pig, and pulled it back hard. The pig's hind feet slipped and fell down, but it also revealed the pit in front of it, and a little color in the pit.

Seeing something wrong, Cheng Xin didn't care too much, turned into the garden and squatted down to poke the soil a few times, only to see that there was a skull buried in the thick root of the plant. The long and complicated white rhizomes were wrapped around the skull. The strands even drilled out of the eye holes full of mud, which was extremely strange.
