Jia Juan of the New Red Mansion
Chapter 38
After dawn, Xiao Daotong, who was in charge of taking care of the beggar, found that the beggar had woken up, and ran out to call someone in surprise.The Taoist priest of Changqing hurried over with several senior Taoist priests after hearing the news. On the way, they ran into Jia Jing who was strolling around the garden. The expressions on the faces of the group were really wonderful.
Pushing open the door, I saw the beggar was holding a big bowl and drinking porridge. He looked like he had been hungry for a long time. While eating, he looked at Daoist Changqing and the others vigilantly, as if he was frightened by their scorching eyes. , holding the bowl with her back in fear and continuing to drink the porridge.
Xiao Daotong climbed onto the bed and helped him wipe off the rice grains from the corner of his mouth, and asked him with a smile if he needed more food. The beggar was of course willing and asked for meat.This put Xiao Daotong in a difficult situation.Xiao Daotong blinked, and cast a look of help to the master, uncle and brothers.
Daoist Changqing stared thoughtfully at the beggar's back, stroked his long beard, and waved his hand to send Xiaodaotong down first.When Xiao Daotong was leaving, he looked back at the beggar who was eating happily, pouted his mouth and pulled the hem of the little senior brother standing at the door with his hand, "Senior brother, this benefactor is so pitiful. After waking up, he shouted that he was hungry." , I have eaten several bowls of rice."
"Okay, you go back first, brother will teach you how to read later." The little brother smiled and said, the master picked up the little brother in front of the mountain gate, and he was still a baby at that time.He grew up in a Taoist temple since he was a child, and he has never been out of the house a few times, and he has never seen a beggar begging for food, so he would naturally make a fuss. "Brother, come early." Xiao Daotong bounced away.
"Wait, Liu Feng, Master has something to ask you." Daoist Changqing told the two doormen to stay in the house and watch the beggars, and called Xiaodaotong back.Jia Jing had met Xiaodaotong before, but he didn't know his Taoist name. He didn't expect Xiaodaotong's Taoist name to be so elegant.
"Master, you called me?" Liu Feng threw himself on Daoist Chang Qing's lap, smiling, Master is always so good-looking every day.The corner of Daoist Changqing's mouth twitched. No matter how many times he taught this child, he still often forgets the rules. If he hadn't been raised as an apprentice, he would be reluctant to let go of his ass. According to Daoist Changqing's temper, he would have already broken the rules.
Daoist Changqing pulled Liu Feng off his lap, "You stayed here last night and didn't leave a single step?" "Master, apprentice slept in the wing room last night." Liu Feng thought for a while, "Master, there is something It's very strange, I don't know if I can say it."
Everyone looked at Liu Feng together, "What's the matter?" Liu Feng turned his head around and said with an embarrassed smile, "Apprentice didn't get up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night last night." Poof, the brothers laughed out loud, "Junior brother, you It's also a strange thing."
Jia Jing was also amused by Liu Feng's childish words, children are children, even if they grow up in a Taoist temple, they are still innocent. "You mean, you slept until dawn last night?" Daoist Chang Qing glanced around coldly, and the door quickly fell silent.
Sure enough, he is the master who single-handedly brought up the child, and he understands the logical thinking of the apprentice very clearly. "Yeah, master, don't you think it's strange that apprentices always get up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, master, is the apprentice sick?" Everyone was full of black lines, and it was a problem that they often went to the toilet in the middle of the night, no, so Small children should not have problems in that regard.
"What did you eat last night? Did you smell a special aroma?" Daoist Changqing considered whether he should take the child's pulse. "Well... the apprentice didn't eat anything. He just ate in the cafeteria with his brothers. After eating, the apprentice came back here. After returning, the uncle hadn't woken up yet, and the apprentice felt sleepy later. The small bed next to the room is asleep. Master, what is a strange fragrance?" Liu Feng asked.
All the people present put away their smiling faces. One of them saw the slightly older Taoist priest come out. After getting the acquiescence of Changqing Taoist priest, he checked Liu Feng from beginning to end and found nothing wrong. Daoist Qing shook his head, then hurriedly returned to the wing.
"Guanzhu, is there something wrong?" Jia Jing sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so there must be something wrong.He was also involved in the matter of using beggars to test medicine, and if something went wrong, the consequences would be very serious.
Daoist Changqing stretched out his slender fingers and pointed to an inconspicuous stone in the ground, "This stone shouldn't be here." Where should it be?Just as Jia Jing wanted to ask, he suddenly realized that this stone was thrown here when Taoist Changqing left. "This, could it be that the disciples put it here?" The Taoist priest is indeed an expert, and he can see the problem at a glance.However, who would have noticed that there was an extra stone?
"He likes to be clean, and he never liked playing with rocks since he was a child." Jia Jing nodded knowingly when he thought of the scene of the Taoist priest wiping the beggar's mouth.There are apprentices as there are masters, and both masters and apprentices are obsessed with cleanliness.
"You guys go and check to see if there is anything missing. Also, you should watch at the door and don't let this beggar get away." Daoist Changqing ordered to go down, then turned around and asked Jia Jing, "Listen Said, Mr. Ling took people back early in the morning, could something serious happen in the mansion?"
As soon as Jia Jing was mentioned, he became angry, and the servants who had just woken up to serve him came to report, saying that Jia Zhen was silent, and hurried back with the burden on his back.People who didn't know it, thought that he was abused by his father here. "Don't mention this unfilial son. He doesn't understand any rules. The Daoist will laugh at him." Daoist Changqing's eyes flashed with a trace of clarity.
"Monastery Lord, Master said that there is something wrong with this beggar." A ten-year-old Taoist priest came out and whispered in Changqing Daoist Master's ear, "He only remembers what happened before he came to the Taoist temple. Also, Master said His body recovered very quickly." Jia Jing followed Daoist Chang Qing to watch the fun.
Okay, just now the beggar's complexion was sallow, but after a while, his complexion became ruddy. This is because he took some magic medicine to recover so quickly.Later, Daoist Changqing asked everyone to retreat, and he closed the door and stayed alone with the beggar in the room for four full hours, without knowing what he said inside.
When he came out, the Taoist priest Changqing had someone change the beggar into a Taoist robe and comb the Taoist priest's hair. "That's to say, I don't think there's something wrong. It turns out that he's wearing a Taoist robe." When Jia Jing mentioned the stone, Jia Zhen tightly held the teacup tightly. Fortunately, the little Taoist priest fell asleep and didn't hear any movement, otherwise It's embarrassing.
"Father, what is the origin of this Changqing Daoist? From your tone, he doesn't look like an ordinary person." Jia Zhen only saw Changqing Daoist from a distance, and in his impression he didn't look like a monk, but he looked like a scholar in terms of temperament .
"You can see it too. Hehe, this is the reason why I came to this Taoist temple for my father. However, my father can't tell you his origin yet. Remember, what you hear and see here can't change anyone Someone mentioned it." Jia Jing took out a small wooden box from a compartment on the bed and handed it to Jia Zhen. "You take this box back. The Taoist priest predicted that you will need it."
"This is the golden pill?" Jia Zhen opened the box and asked in confusion.
"Yes, it's the golden elixir. You're lucky. The Taoist master refined it for seven or 49 days and gave it to you." Jia Jing asked Jia Zhen to keep the golden elixir, "Said mysteriously , "The Taoist master not only understands the technique of Qihuang, but also knows Fengshui and numerology.He had already calculated that there would be a problem in the Rongguo Mansion, so he could avoid right and wrong as a father. "
Jia Zhen jumped up, "Father, you won't be cheated." Although Ningrong and Rongfu are of the same family, after all, the two families have been separated. Something happened to Rongguo Mansion, and Ningguo Mansion's reputation will be affected at worst. As long as you behave in a low-key manner in the future.Not at all, escape to the Taoist temple for refuge.
That is to say, how could the good-natured person propose to clear up the cultivation, so it turned out that someone was provoking and instigating him behind the scenes. "Father, let's go back. We don't want this golden elixir. No matter how bad the Ningguo Mansion is, there are still good bird's nests and ginseng. Son, I will let you get these to eat every day. Even if you can't become a fairy, you can still nourish your body." physical."
"What nonsense are you talking, and you still don't let go of your hand, what a mess it is." Jia Jing pulled back his sleeves vigorously, and said with a straight face, "The Taoist priest of Changqing is a master of Taoism, how can he be arranged by you, an ignorant child To tell you the truth, long before your second aunt's incident happened, Daoist Changqing had already figured out the catastrophe. If it hadn't been for your father, you thought our Ningguo Mansion would be safe and sound until today."
"The daoist said that the emperor is already dissatisfied with the Bagong's mansion. It's not like you don't know the fate of Shi's family first. Sigh, if you had received the advice of the daoist earlier, you wouldn't have followed them to work hard and be implicated innocently ” Jia Jing was afraid that his son would not believe him, so he listed all kinds of unbelievable things about the Taoist priest of Changqing.
"Is he so godlike? Then why did he use beggars to test medicine? Since he can calculate the future, how can he make fun of such things as life and death?" Although Jia Zhen usually spends time and money, and lusts after women, she has never done anything harmful. human deeds.Especially after he saw the miserable appearance of beggars with his own eyes, he was even more ashamed of Changqing Daoist's behavior.
"You, you, are my own son. Could it be that I will harm you?" Jia Jing sighed and said, "Okay, now you are promising and capable, and you don't even need to listen to your father's words."
"No, Dad, other things, my son will definitely listen to you, but this is the only thing that my son will never agree to. Not to mention the golden pill, even the magic medicine of immortality, my son will not ask for it. Jia Zhen quickly explained, "Father, my son always thinks this Taoist temple is a little weird, so just listen to him and go home. You don't know what's going on outside now, and you can't even say those ugly words." exit."
"Well, now that things have come to an end, I won't hide it from you. In fact, the master behind this Taoist temple is the current prince, and this Changqing Daoist is a master of the Tao who was invited by the prince himself. Do you think that my father doesn't know This Taoist temple is weird, but because my father has already boarded the boat, it is difficult to think about it."
Pushing open the door, I saw the beggar was holding a big bowl and drinking porridge. He looked like he had been hungry for a long time. While eating, he looked at Daoist Changqing and the others vigilantly, as if he was frightened by their scorching eyes. , holding the bowl with her back in fear and continuing to drink the porridge.
