Talk about the world of mortals in detail

Of course, Xue Daoren was not walking so fast because his injury was healed. He only relaxed when he was far away from the street where Zhong's house was.

As soon as I relaxed, my whole body felt sore and weak, and I almost fell to my knees while walking.

However, Xue Daoren gritted his teeth and persisted, and the feeling of weakness temporarily subsided.

Daoren Xue left when the yamen servant responsible for taking care of him went out for convenience. He left a note and used a little cover-up method. No one in the yamen should have discovered it yet.

However, Mr. Xue is not in a hurry to return to the Yamen now.

In the dim night, Daoren Xue walked and looked everywhere, as if he was looking for something, and his steps occasionally stumbled.

He knew that there must be an expert in the city to help him, perhaps the old gentleman Yu Weng from before.

If the golden rooster's dawn talisman had not been successfully activated last night, there might have been nothing to do next, and that crow came at just the right time.

Xue Daoren has been traveling around the world for so many years, and he knows that there are mountains outside the mountains. This is not a matter of having the opportunity to ask an expert, but he feels that this time things may not be that simple.

At the beginning, Taoist Xue also understood that things were complicated. After using the "Fire Dragon Spell" last night, he felt like he had a spiritual enlightenment, and he became more aware of the subtleties of this matter.

The city god broke the lot and came to give guidance, and the land appeared to tell the cause and effect!

If it can be solved properly, it will be a story about good and evil being rewarded. Although it is not a good story, it can still serve as a warning to future generations.

But there are some things that cannot be ignored, such as the state of the ghost last night, the feeling of being like a ghost or a demon, it is really terrifying, and it is not easy to become like this.

As he walked, Taoist Xue looked up at the sky, and then reached out to touch his cheek.

It rained again. Although it was just light rain this time, the experience during this period made Daoren Xue feel slightly uneasy every time it rained.

At the same time, I also used the rain to think more about the ghosts and the dragon scales obtained by the county government.

Maybe the treasure dragon scales from the sea are real, but it’s hard to say whether a mortal would be auspicious or bring bad luck to himself if he gets such a treasure!

Seeing no one along the way, and it had started to rain again, Xue Daoren thought for a while and walked towards his home instead of returning to the county office.

Although it is a rented house, it is more comfortable than living in the county government office. Although my health is poor, it is not to the point where I can't survive without anyone to take care of me.

After walking so much, Daoren Xue was already exhausted when he approached the door of his home in his current state. But as soon as he saw the door of the courtyard, he couldn't help but feel refreshed.

A white-haired old man was sitting in front of the door. Under his butt was the small stool that Taoist Xue usually carried in his backpack.

Needless to say, the trunk was naturally placed by the door, and the inscription "Old Immortal Miao Gua" was also placed against the door.

"When people come out of the Yamen, they can't leave their things behind, right?"

As the old man spoke, he stood up on his knees. Daoren Xue came back to his senses and hurried forward.

"Old sir, Mr. Yu. You are here. Oh, sir, please wait for a long time. Pindao will open the door for you right now!"

Taoren Xue seemed to have recovered from his injuries for the most part. Not only were his legs and feet clearer, but he also spoke as clearly as possible regardless of the pain in his tongue.

When Yu Weng stood up, Taoist Xue had already arrived at the courtyard door. He unlocked the door and said "please" to invite people in.

After carrying the box, flags and banners into the room, Taoist Xue was unsteady on his feet and almost fell to the table, but Yu Weng stretched out his hand to support him.

"Just rest, I'm here."

Yu Weng took the flint from the table, struck the fire, ignited the tinder and then lit the oil lamp. Warm lights suddenly lit up in the hall. Taoist Xue, who was already sitting on the bench, stood up again and solemnly saluted the old man.

"Xue Yuan, a poor man, would like to thank you, Mr. Xue, for your help last night!"

Yu Weng stretched out his hand to hold Xue Daoren's arm.

"There is no need to be polite. I am not of much help. If the Taoist Priest's own magic is not magical, how can he kill the ghosts?"

After saying that, Yu Weng also smiled and continued.

"The use of talismans to depict the meaning of the golden rooster crowing the dawn is quite original. After that, the county government office became ablaze. I guess it is a very good fire spell, right?"

Taoist Xue straightened up, his face a little more excited. Before, he just guessed that he might be helping Yu Weng, but now he was sure.

"Without the old gentleman's spell, Pindao would be a dead man today!"

"Hahahahahaha."

The old man sat down on the bench and patted his knees with laughter.

"What about casting spells and not casting spells? I just learned a few tricks from a good ventriloquist in my early years and imitated a rooster's crow. It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning!"

"This is the old gentleman's wonderful method. How could it not be worth mentioning? Otherwise, my golden rooster would be no match for the spirit of ghosts and monsters!"

As Taoist Xue said this, he couldn't help but continue.

"The gentleman showed me the location of the City God's signature yesterday during the day, and also led me to the Earth Temple outside the city. I guess he knows something about this matter, and I hope the old gentleman can give me some advice!"

Taoist Xue looked at the old man in front of him sincerely, but saw that the other man looked thoughtful and glanced at the backpack next to him.

Xue Daoren also subconsciously glanced at the trunk. The trunk and flags were placed inside the county government office. When he came out just now, due to his physical strength, it was really inconvenient to carry them. Now he thought about how Mr. Yu brought them out. What about the county government?

It shouldn't be as simple as just saying something and having it taken out.

It was also at this time that the white-haired old man spoke again.

"This matter may be said to be simple, but it may not be simple, but it is simple. The righteousness in the world can be broken, and you and Zhong Patou are that righteousness."

Yu Weng smiled slightly and then continued.

"Compared to these, I saw that the Taoist priest seems to have practiced cultivation for many years and has achieved some achievements. I also heard that the Taoist priest said that my wonderful method is extraordinary. Hehehehe."

Yu Weng looked at Taoist Xue while stroking his beard with a smile unchanged.

"Taoist Master, I am stupid. I hope the Taoist Master can tell me where the extraordinary ventriloquism lies?"

This question made Daoren Xue slightly stunned, and he answered subconsciously.

"The old man calls out the sun with a cry, trapping the ghosts and alleviating their anxiety!"

Yu Weng stroked his beard and shook his head.

"The Taoist priest is wrong. I just cried. What really summons the sun is the Taoist priest's golden rooster talisman. It is the power of the talisman. Where is the magic?"

Taoist Xue was stunned again, and then immediately answered.

"Last night, not only was the golden rooster's crowing more powerful than before, but roosters crowed all over the city. The old man's wonderful method affected the power of the sky, stopped the thunderstorm, and frightened the ghosts and evil spirits. How could it not be magical?"

Yu Weng still shook his head.

"I still just cried once. Everything after that has nothing to do with me. As for the theory of stopping the rain, it may be a coincidence. I am really puzzled by what the Taoist priest said!"

Taoist Xue really didn't know what to say now. He clearly knew that it must be the old man's wonderful method. He clearly knew that it couldn't be as simple as imitating the crow of a chicken. Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible for naughty children to play and use it?

But if the old gentleman asks this question, how should he answer it?

When his thinking was at an impasse, Xue Daoren's heart moved slightly. He had already sat down and stood up again, took a few steps back and bowed solemnly to Yu Weng.

"I really don't know, old gentleman, please give me some advice!"

The white-haired old man slowly stood up from the bench, walked to the door and looked outside. There was drizzle under the clouds, and there was a breeze in the small courtyard.

Taoren Xue looked behind the old man and followed his gaze. He didn't know whether the latter was looking at the sky, the rain or the courtyard, and the old man's voice also sounded at this moment.

"How can a cock crow solve the dilemma? Ghosts and monsters are afraid of the power of the sun. The loud cock crow is three parts frightening. Is the unstable mind one of them and the other two?"

The old man looked back at Daoren Xue with a smile on his face.

"Has the Taoist priest ever raised chickens himself? Or has someone else raised chickens?"

"I have never kept them in captivity, but I have paid some attention to them!"

The old man nodded and actually smiled in his heart. He may have slaughtered many chickens to cast the spell, so how could he pay less attention to it.

"Roosters often crow with each other. It is said to be communication but more competition. It is also a kind of majestic rooster crow. The loud crowing of the old man woke up the roosters around the county government office, and the latter came one after another with a competitive heart. Compare"

"Because there was a lot of movement at first, but in the night when the whole city was resting, everything was silent and a single crow sounded, it was also a blockbuster, and then gradually it attracted the whole city, and it became like thousands of roosters crowing!"

Taoist Xue was thinking along with the old man's words, but the latter did not stop.

"The crowing of the golden rooster is the principle of heaven. Thousands of roosters crow from thousands of homes in the world. This rooster's crow is the principle of heaven and the power of humanity. It originates from the earth and moves the power of heaven. As the saying goes, man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, and heaven follows the Tao. And Tao follows nature!"

At this moment, facing the old man's eyes, Xue Daoren opened his eyes slightly. The other man's voice was silent but was like thunder in his heart.

“A single hit can be astonishing, but taking advantage of the situation can be shocking!”

The old man smiled "hehe" after saying this, and turned his head to look at Xue Daoren, who had unknowingly stood in front of the door and looked outside the house.

"I said that this method is not worth mentioning, and it is true! The Taoist priest said that this method is magical, and he is right! All things in the world, the way of nature, and the principle of life and death, are both simple and complex, nothing can be more simple and complex than this!"

Taoist Xue stood there blankly, looking at the rain like an old man. It was drizzling outside, but there was lightning and thunder in his heart!

In the night, no one knows how long it has passed, Taoren Xue has been standing blankly.

The lights in the house gradually dimmed, and the wicks of unoccupied lamps were submerged in the lamp oil and extinguished. Time continued to pass until a cockcrow was heard.

"Oh oh oh——"

Taoist Xue suddenly woke up as if from a dream. Only then did he realize that a white belly had turned up on the horizon. Looking around, there was no sign of Mr. Yu inside or outside the house.

"Mr., Mr. Yu?"

Taoist Xue shouted and searched around, then opened the courtyard door and looked everywhere outside, where he found the old man's figure.

In a daze, Taoist Xue even had doubts about whether the old man had been here last night, and had the illusion that he had returned alone.

But Taoist Xue knew that Mr. Yu was at home last night, right in front of this door.

Listening to a speech may seem simple, but it is better than what you have learned through years of practice. This is the gift of preaching!

After searching for a while, Taoist Xue returned home and sat on a bench in the house, staring blankly at the yard outside that was gradually getting brighter as the sky lit up.

I don’t know if I would be able to accept my calling if we meet again.

Gradually, a smile appeared on Taoren Xue's dumb face.

Alas, Xue Yuan, Xue Yuan, as the saying goes, if you hear the truth in the morning and die in the evening, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
