Chapter 210 Subtle Three days have passed Ziwei Temple has completely turned into a construction site. Except for the statues of Ziwei Emperor and Wang Lingguan which were covered and then temporarily surrounded by talismanic ropes and wooden stakes, other places have basically been demolished. "Oh my...what is this!" On the busy construction site, an octogenarian dressed in neat clothes was pointing and gesticulating, with disgust on his face and saliva clearly spitting from his mouth. But no one dared to be angry with the old man. Because this grandfather’s surname is Gongshu. Gongshu of the Gongshu clan of the Ji clan, Gongshu of Lu Ban. That’s right, Her Royal Highness the Princess has great magical powers. She dug out the descendants of the God of Craftsmen from some unknown corner. Within three days, the palace priests used a land flying boat to invite the descendant of the God of Craftsmen.
The old man didn't want to come at first. In his opinion, working for the emperor was not as good as making a cradle for the little son of the big tiger next door. But from this old man, he knew that this was a reconstruction of the Taoist temple on earth for Emperor Ziwei. Especially after learning that the abbot who was now in charge of this Taoist temple had saved millions of lives from the evil hands, the old man ran over without hesitation. "The material is wrong! The specification is wrong!" "What you are going to build is a temple for the gods! It is a temple built by imperial order! Not a dry toilet for your wife!" The old man was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at the craftsmen who were looking down, and scolded them: "You are all idiots!" "Tear it down! Tear down all this garbage you made!" As he spoke, the old man took off the robe that was in the way, revealing a linen sweatshirt and an arm full of muscular muscles. Who doesn’t have some strength as a craftsman? The craftsmen dared not say a word. They smiled ingratiatingly and skillfully dismantled the nonsense foundation that the old man had talked about. They were indeed very happy. Firstly, this was the direct descendant of the founder demonstrating the craft personally, and such a good opportunity to learn a skill might not come once in a hundred years. Secondly, this would extend the construction period, so wouldn’t we be able to eat stew for several more days? Although this idea is a bit unfair to Master Jiang, but... I feel happy just thinking about it! As for the extra time and effort? To common people during the slack season, the least valuable things are time and effort. The construction site resumed its bustling activity. In the backyard which had not been affected for the time being, Xiaoqing was picking vegetables with a group of women. There are three large shacks and several earthen stoves which are simple but absolutely sturdy and durable. "Miss Qing is really kind and beautiful. Look at the vegetables she has planted. They are so juicy." An old lady looked at the vegetables in her hand and praised them with a smile. "hey-hey." Xiaoqing raised her head proudly and was very pleased with the woman's praise. That cute and innocent expression made a group of aunties in their forties and fifties look at her with loving eyes.
Girls who are pretty, good-tempered, efficient at work and not at all arrogant are the most popular among these farm ladies. In just three days, Xiaoqing became the treasure of these women. In other words, he knew that there was no boy among his relatives who was worthy of this young girl, otherwise he would have started looking for a matchmaker for her a long time ago. "Xiaoqing, come here, let me teach you how to cook." At this time, a woman by the stove called out, and seeing Xiaoqing running over, the smile on her face became even more enthusiastic. "Auntie tells you, if you get married in the future, you must know how to cook." A wicked smile suddenly appeared on the aunt's face, and she said mysteriously: "Eight out of ten men are good at cheating. If you don't keep a close eye on them, it won't work. So, you have to learn how to capture his stomach first." Xiaoqing nodded ignorantly, but she was wondering in her heart, if secretly eating delicious food is considered wrong, then wouldn't the man be too miserable after getting married? Unexpectedly, this look made all the women laugh, and some of the serious ones glared at the woman who spoke first. "What nonsense are you talking to a girl! Do you think all men in other families are the same as yours?" "Why don't you call your man over so I can compare him?" "Okay, I'll put it in your bed tonight!" When the farm ladies chatted, their scales became more and more exaggerated. Xiaoqing was still ignorant, which made all the women love her. "I don't know which boy will be so lucky to be worthy of our Xiaoqing in the future." "Yes, Xiaoqing, if you are going to marry into a family, you have to ask the aunts to check it out." "Ouch!" As the women were talking, Xiaoqing accidentally spilled the kerosene. 'boom! ’ The kerosene fell right into the stove, and a large flame suddenly rose up. "Go away!" "Xiaoqing, get out of the way!" "Firefighting!" After the women realized what was happening, they all stepped forward. Xiaoqing looked at the women getting flustered, scratched his head and raised his hand. 'laugh……' The water energy condensed and turned into a blue spring, which immediately extinguished the flames. At this moment, all the women were stunned.
"Xiaoqing, you...know immortal magic?" "This……" The women stared at Xiaoqing blankly. "Hmm." Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, thinking about her sister's instructions, and simply turned around. "Because I am a snake spirit." As he spoke, a clear mist rose up, and Xiaoqing's two long legs disappeared, replaced by a jade-like snake tail. Everyone present focused their attention on Xiaoqing's snake tail. The jade-like scales are arranged closely together, shining with a layer of hazy divine light. Instead of making people feel horrified or weird, they have a unique beauty. This has a lot to do with Xiaoqing's cleansing of the evil spirits in Ziwei Temple during this period of time. Appearance is determined by the mind, which is sometimes very reasonable. For example, now, if it was the previous Xiaoqing, with that evil and turbid aura, after transforming into a snake tail, there would always be a sticky and terrifying feeling unique to snakes. But it doesn’t feel that way now. Compared to the snake demon, Xiaoqing now looks more like... a snake fairy? The women remained in a daze. The rumors from the past involuntarily emerged in my mind. There is a snake demon in Ziwei Temple, and the tragedy of the five people in Guojiazhuang was also caused by the snake demon... Seven parts true and three parts false are the easiest to believe. Not to mention, right now, at this moment, in Ziwei Temple, the snake demon appeared in front of him... "Don't even talk!" At this time, a woman stood up, took off her apron and covered Xiaoqing's snake tail. At the same time, she looked at the front yard separated by a wall, and was relieved to see that no one noticed here. The woman gave Xiaoqing a reproachful look and said, "Silly girl, the case of Guo's manor has not been concluded yet. You are just asking for trouble by acting like this." "Put it away quickly, and don't be so careless again!" Xiaoqing was a little surprised. She didn't see any fear of the monster in the woman's eyes. Instead, there was a strange kind of... concern? It's like having unconditional trust in your own children. "Are you stupid?" The woman looked at the other sisters and sighed, "This is Ziwei Temple, a place revered by the current emperor, and Taoist Jiang is also a master with real skills!" "Think carefully, when we started the groundbreaking ceremony two days ago, did the statue of Lord Lingguan show his power?" The women then remembered that just two days ago, after everyone worshipped the Emperor and the Lord Lingguan, they all had the same dream that night. There was the shadow of a golden-armored god in the dream, and that was the most comfortable sleep they had ever had in their lives.
"The Spiritual Officer is in charge of killing demons and exterminating evil. If Qing Yatou is really the snake demon from Guo Family Manor, how can she still be standing here so alive and kicking?" The woman sighed and said, "I've been to Ziwei Temple to burn incense before, and I've seen Qing Yatou from afar." "She has been in Ziwei Temple for quite a long time. Even if Qing is not a human, she has definitely never done anything evil." "Also, have you forgotten that the Emperor said there were rumors in Hangzhou? Why don't you believe the Emperor, the Spiritual Officer, or Taoist Master Jiang, but instead believe those rumors?" After saying this, the aunts realized that this was indeed the truth, and besides, Xiaoqing had indeed pleased them these days. They all stared at Xiaoqing curiously. Some of the brave ones even touched her and rubbed her. Xiaoqing tried to dodge quickly, but the aunts were so numerous and powerful that she had no chance to hide. After a lot of commotion, Xiaoqing ended up blushing with embarrassment. ………… "Sister Bai! Sister Yu!" "We have finished reciting the Thousand Character Classic!" At the top of Longjing Mountain, a large open space has been cleared. Two shacks were built on the open space. These are two classrooms. Jiang Lin had promised before that people could bring their children with them to learn to read and write. But these children included both girls and boys, and it was inconvenient to teach them together, so they were divided into two groups. The one that is noisy now is the girls' side, which is relatively quiet. A group of maids stood in front of Bai Suzhen and Tu Shanyu, each of them staring at the two female teachers with their watery eyes. "You guys agreed to show us that after we memorized it!" The girls shouted in anticipation. Tu Shanyu and Bai Suzhen looked at each other with a smile. After Bai Suzhen nodded slightly, Tu Shanyu said, "Then should you say..." The maids took up the conversation and said in unison: "The two sisters are the most beautiful!" "Hum hum." Tu Shanyu squinted his eyes in satisfaction, then clapped his hands. With a bang and a flash of red light, nine furry fiery red tails appeared behind Tu Shanyu. "Wow!!" The girls' eyes lit up and they all crowded together to get a closer look. Tu Shanyu turned around lightly, and the Nine-Tailed Fox looked like a sunset cloud, dazzling and gorgeous. There is no woman who doesn't like cute fur and dazzling sparkle, even a teenage girl.
When these two things are combined in everything and combined perfectly, it is a sure win for women. "Sister Yu, can I..." There was a little girl holding out her hands, eager to make a move... "No." Tu Shanyu shook her head, put away her tail, and said with a smile: "Only sister can touch her tail." "And a husband!" At this time, a little girl suddenly started yelling. "My mother said that there are no secrets between husband and wife!" "I envy Sister Yu's husband so much." "Does Sister Yu have a husband?" "No!" "That's right! Sister Yu is so beautiful, no one can be worthy of her!" "Brother Jiang is fine! Brother Jiang is also good-looking!" The girls' topic quickly went off the topic completely. Tu Shanyu not only did not stop her, but instead gave her encouragement in her eyes and glanced at Bai Suzhen. Although the two women are now "accomplices" in a sense, especially after Bai Suzhen took Tu Shanyu to spy on Liu Yunxiu... Tushan Yu discovered that even with the Tushan secret method and the protection of humanity, although she would not be backlashed like Bai Suzhen, she would not end up well either. At this moment, for Tu Shanyu and Bai Suzhen, Liu Yunxiu, who is so mysterious that no one knows his true background, is the biggest threat! Especially when Bai Suzhen contacted Miaoqing and got the information from this simple girl that Liu Yunxiu had shouted "I practice for the Taoist priest" in front of Jiang Lin more than once. An opponent with an extremely mysterious background, who is most likely a level higher than the two of them and is also good at hitting straight balls, is really terrifying. What's more, there is one thing that must be faced. No matter how noble Tu Shanyu and Bai Suzhen are, they are not human after all...but Liu Yunxiu is. This is the greatest sense of crisis. However, although the snake and the fox "formed an alliance" due to external pressure, it was still very loose... Little provocations like the one Tushanyu just made are commonplace. Most of the time, Bai Suzhen was too lazy to pay attention to Tushan Yu, who had a childish nature. There was noisy play in the shack on this side, but on the other side there was a sense of despair. 'Crack! ' The pointer hit the blackboard, and Jiang Lin looked at the frowning boys with a smile.
"Write these ten words one hundred times each. You can eat only after you finish writing them. The one who writes the fastest and best will be rewarded with a bag of candy." Jiang Lin offered the boys a reward that they couldn't refuse, but it still failed to inspire any subjective initiative. Everyone looked through the cracks in the shack to see the little bit of "happiness" leaking out from the shack next door. Why? The sister next door is kind and beautiful and is teaching here, but here is a devil. The boys picked up the pens in despair. They did not dare to resist because their father had said that anyone who disobeyed would be beaten to death. The last troublemaker who went against Mr. Jiang is still being held captive. His father will go and beat him up when he has nothing to do... “It’s so fun to be a teacher.” Jiang Lin thought with a smile in his heart, and threw a clod of earth at a hapless child who was distracted. Seeing the child with tears in his eyes but still working on his writing, Jiang Lin smiled even more happily. He raised his head and looked to the other side, glanced at Tu Shanyu who looked like a child leader, and then happened to meet Bai Suzhen's eyes. The two nodded to each other. The plan was a success. It is a fact that there are two snake spirits in Ziweiguan and this cannot be denied. So Jiang Lin prepared a "fear-eliminating" plan. First, he asked the teacher to show his power to increase the people's confidence, and then asked Bai Suzhen and others to show their power in public from time to time. Watch it over and over again and you'll get used to it. If you do it more often, it will become a habit. Who says people can’t make friends with people of different species? Of course, the prerequisite is that the elf is on the right path. It now seems that Jiang Lin's plan has been quite effective. At least the children in front of him are just short of worshipping Bai Suzhen and Tu Shanyu. The aunts in the backyard were very satisfied with Xiaoqing's first "manifestation of divine power" and the result made Jiang Lin very satisfied. However, there is a drawback to doing this - if the mastermind transforms into Bai Suzhen and others to do evil things after the work is completed and the people go down the mountain to return to their normal lives... Then, not only will Jiang Lin’s plan fail, but innocent people will also suffer. but…… "As long as we find those guys and chop them up before that, there will be no problem." Jiang Lin murmured to himself, his eyes fixed on the mountain below. Let me take a good look and see which of my "old friend" is so ignorant of the danger this time. (End of this chapter)
