Phi-Fic Chapter 199: Fake Taoist Priest
Chapter 199: Fake Taoist Priest
A group of young people of passionate age, of course, could not stand this obvious bullying of their fellow villagers.
Guo Yang first walked up with two guards.
Perhaps it was because the material of his clothes looked high-quality, and there were two tall and strong guards standing behind him.
The "Taoist" lowered his voice a little: "Young Master, this is a matter between our Taoist temple and the Buddhist temple, please don't meddle in other people's business."
Guo Yang sneered disdainfully: "Taoist temple?"
"Are you qualified to talk about cultivation?"
"I have met many Taoist priests, all of whom are immortal, extraordinary and free-spirited people."
“I also discussed the doctrine with them.”
“The first thing to do when practicing Taoism is to follow your heart and fate.”
"I have never seen a truly powerful Taoist temple that would compete with a Buddhist temple for incense offerings."
He frowned and said with disgust: "You still use this kind of violent method to smash and destroy."
"Taoism has a long history in my country, while Buddhism was introduced only recently and has far fewer followers."
"And yet you were able to drive all the villagers to the Buddhist temple. What on earth did you do to become like this?"
His soul asked: "Are you a fake Taoist priest?"
"As for making money, it's much easier for someone like you who has no special skills to open a Taoist temple or a Buddhist temple."
"You use the excuse of the gods' blessing, but in reality you don't have to pay a penny. You just have to wait for people to come and pay you money."
Guo Yang frowned and said unhappily, "People who worship Buddha or gods, unless they are free or pious, all pray with hope."
"For some people, it is hope amid despair, such as when a loved one has reached the end of his life."
"People like this are especially willing to spend money."
"But didn't the old man just say that your place doesn't work at all?"
"I don't know if this Buddhist temple is really effective, but the way you look at it, it's obvious that you are a liar."
"What a beast."
The Taoist priest was so angry after hearing these harsh words that he said, "You said I'm a fake Taoist priest. Do you have any evidence?"
"Did anyone stipulate what a true Taoist priest should look like?"
Speaking of real Taoist priests, Bei Jingchu thought of one person.
Bei Jingchu took the washed apple that Haoyue handed over and started eating it.
He can't be considered a Taoist priest, but the common point is that he is also a person who practices cultivation.
Bei Jingchu suddenly became curious: [Is the Imperial Master a Taoist priest? ]
She nibbled at it in small bites. It would be soulless if she didn't eat something while watching the fun.
The Taoist priest over there still had a ferocious look on his face.
"Since you are a child, I will be polite to you and don't seek death!"
"Do you know that my aunt's niece's husband's brother is the steward of the General of the Cavalry's mansion?"
Bei Jingchu who was listening said:...It's really a distant relationship.
I was so shocked that Eunuch Jiang actually held the rank of general that I didn't even pay attention.
[Does Eunuch Jiang know that there is such a person who is showing off his power in his name? 】
Bei Jingchu suddenly came up with a bad idea: [I'll tell Eunuch Jiang when I get back, maybe it'll scare him, hehehehe~]
Before Bei Jingchu could continue thinking about how to trick Eunuch Jiang, Guo Yang came back to her senses and called her: "Eunuch..."
"Madam Chu, I remember that you are friends with that cavalry general, right?"
"Someone is bullying the people outside by relying on his name. Should I remind him when I get back?"
"The housekeeper in his house caused him trouble and he was demoted."
Bei Jingchu, who was eating an apple, said:?
[No, can't you fight on your own? ]
【Why are you still looking for help from outside the field? 】
When the fake Taoist heard this, his legs went weak.
But looking at the little girl over there, he regained some confidence.
The one in front of me is at least a teenager, and the little girl at the door of the wing room is just a baby.
Is this nosy boy trying to scare him?
Then he said loudly: "I, I don't believe it!"
"Who is Eunuch Jiang? How can any little kid know him?"
"You guys are trying to scare me."
"Let me tell you little brats, I was not brought up to be scared."
"You said you knew Eunuch Jiang. Do you have any evidence?"
Bei Jingchu felt tired and didn't want to waste time in front of such a person.
[Still looking for evidence, does he think he is trying a case in court? ]
Bei Jingchu took another bite of the apple, chewed it, and swallowed it before saying, "What are you talking about? I don't want to waste my breath on this person."
"Changyan, let the guards take them down."
"Yes."
Looking at the empty room next to him, a tall and strong guard in iron armor walked out.
The fake Taoist priest who had been so arrogant just now was suddenly frightened and finally realized that his outing today was not a good one and he had offended a group of people he could not afford to offend.
Except for the monk who was told to bring them in early in the morning, everyone else was stunned.
The Yue Dynasty had extremely strict management of weapons and armor, and the only iron tools that ordinary people had come into contact with were kitchen knives, iron pots and shovels.
Anyone who hides weapons in a house will be locked up and imprisoned.
This fake Taoist priest brought people to cause trouble, and the people he brought with him all used farm tools as weapons.
So, when he saw the guards coming out one after another, all fully armed and armored, he knew that he was finished.
I met a really important person.
The fake Taoist priest fell to his knees with a thud.
There's no need to even ask the guards to take action.
Guo Yang asked him: "Do you want any more evidence?"
"No, no, no."
"Please spare my life, my lord, please spare my life."
Guo Yang asked Bei Jingchu: "Madam Chu, how should we deal with this man?"
Realizing that the youngest girl was actually the one with the highest status among them.
The fake Taoist priest changed direction, kowtowed towards Bei Jingchu and begged for mercy, tears streaming down his face.
If it weren't for his arrogant look just now, it would seem like Bei Jingchu and the others were the ones bullying others.
"I'm too lazy to deal with it. Send it to the authorities."
After the situation calmed down, the abbot of the temple came to express his gratitude. Guo Yang took small steps to apologize: "I'm sorry, Your Highness. I couldn't reveal my identity, so I called your name in a hurry just now."
Bei Jingchu was a little bothered, but what she minded was not this, but: "If you want to help, then help."
"You wanted my help, and as classmates we could have discussed it, but you dragged me into this without even saying hello."
"Do you think what you did was unreasonable?"
Guo Yang admitted his mistake: "Yes, I didn't think it through."
A laugh came from the side. It was Bei Qin.
Guo Yang glared at him fiercely: "What are you laughing at!"
"My mouth is on my own face. Brother Guo, do you still want to tell me when to open my mouth?"
"This is too overbearing."
Seeing that the two were about to start quarreling again, the arrival of the host made the two teenagers who were about to fight calm down.
He bowed and said, "Thank you all for your help."
"The temple is small and contains no valuables."
He pointed to the box in his disciple's hand and said, "These are the Buddhist beads that I and others have used to consecrate and chant sutras, and the relics of the previous abbot."
"I give it to you as a token of my gratitude."
Bei Jingchu was quite satisfied. She thought her mother would like these things.
