Chapter 59 59: There is an immortal family deep in Yunshan
The night passed quickly, and on the second day, Butler Zhao finally saw someone: a white-faced scholar, accompanied by a country girl with a childish face and simple clothes...
There is also a very ugly bald-tailed dog.
Seeing the dog, Zhao Wu couldn't hold back his anger.
Unfortunately, we are in Fangshi, so it is not easy to cause trouble.
"Where did you two come from and where are you going?"
Butler Zhao was too lazy to be polite and asked directly.
Chen Jin glanced at him: "Go to Yunshan Taoist Temple."
"Ask God? Or seek talismans?"
"Apprenticeship."
"Huh?"
Butler Zhao was stunned and looked up and down: "You are going to Yunshan Taoist Temple to become a disciple? Are you kidding me?"
Chen Jin asked: "What's the problem?"
"This is a big problem."
Butler Zhao sneered: "Our family has never heard of Yunshan Taoist Temple opening its doors to accept disciples. Even Taoist boys are not accepted."
I decided in my heart that Chen and Jin probably came to Yunshan through hearsay to meet the fate of immortality.
Yunshan Taoist Temple has a good reputation. Throughout the year, many young people with longings and dreams come to the mountain, trying to worship the gate wall and embark on the path to immortality.
But it's useless. Not to mention seeing the temple owner, he can't even get through the gate.
Chen Jin smiled: "Maybe the master of the temple will accept disciples after seeing me?"
"That's nonsense."
Butler Zhao flicked his sleeves and didn't bother to say more: He was just an ignorant man.
It seems that the dog frightened the horse was an accident.
This matter cannot be revealed like this.
How can the Zhao family suffer a loss on their land in Genshui County?
No small loss will suffice.
Otherwise, if it spreads, it will be detrimental to face.
But I can't take action now. There will be plenty of opportunities when I get out. The dog looked thick and just killed the hotpot.
Immediately, Zhao Wu was called and gave instructions in a low voice.
Zhao Wu listened and nodded in agreement, eager to try. Just because Kenma was frightened, he received a slap in the face, and his cheek is still a little swollen and sore.
Of course, Zhao Wu did not dare to hold a grudge against the big housekeeper, and he was even more afraid that he would lose his job as a coachman because of this matter.
Then all the resentment will naturally be placed on the dog and the dog's owner.
Chen Jin's donkey cart set off first, leaving Fangshi and heading to Yunshan.
This section of the road was wide and flat, and the donkey ran a little faster.
About half an hour later, we successfully arrived at the foot of Yunshan Mountain.
I saw a river flowing in front of the mountain, like a jade belt, very elegant.
This river is not a stream like Chen Zexiang's. The river is more than three feet wide, the current is fast, and the waves are sweeping up with great force.
A three-star stone arch bridge spans the river. The guardrails on both sides of the bridge are full of exquisite stone carvings of many shapes, including birds, beasts, ghosts and gods.
If you lean over and look below, you can still see a dragon-slaying sword inserted upside down under the bridge, which is already stained with rust.
Wherever a big river like this flows, as long as there is a bridge, there will probably be a similar sword, which means to suppress the water dragon and prevent the flood from breaking out and causing a flood.
After crossing the bridge, there is a large willow forest with willow trees and exquisite scenery.
Neither the donkey cart nor the horse-drawn carriage can go up the mountain, but are parked here, which is equivalent to a parking lot.
Of course there is a fee, one hundred cents.
The person in charge of collecting the money was a handyman Taoist who said in a loud voice: "This dog can't go up the mountain, otherwise it will collide and pollute the Taoist pure land."
Chen Jin did everything he could, so he just left his wealth to look after the donkey cart.
When other people come, they all have special drivers.
Unable to follow him up the mountain, Wangcai felt depressed, but he had no choice but to lie on the shaft of the car, unable to cheer up. After the arrangements were made, Chen Jin and Chen Min set foot on the winding stone path.
After a while, Zhao Wu also arrived with a carriage.
They also followed the rules. Butler Zhao accompanied the young master up, while Zhao Wu stayed below.
The man turned his eyes and focused on the donkey cart and the dog left in the cart.
"God help me!"
Zhao Wu showed a ferocious smile.
If there is a conflict with others, it will violate the rules of Yunshan Taoist Temple, but finding a reason to kill an unsupervised dog should not be a big problem.
He also knew that the Taoist immortals did not like dogs.
……
The stone-stepped mountain road is winding and seemingly endless.
Chen Jin asked: "Xiao Min, are you tired?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The girl immediately shook her head: "I'm not tired. I've climbed many mountains. What does this mean?"
"That's good."
"Brother, you don't seem to have climbed mountains much. If you are tired, let's sit down and take a rest."
Chen Jin held a bamboo stick in his hand, using it as a crutch. He smiled slightly: "I have climbed mountains too."
"Is it the hill behind the village?"
"Of course I have been to the back mountain, but it is not a real mountain."
The girl was confused and thought it was Chen Jin who had been to other peaks when he was studying abroad, because scholars all like to travel.
"Hey, brother, look, what is that person doing?"
Chen Jin had actually discovered it a long time ago.
It was a young man, wearing short clothes and with his hair tied up randomly. He was on his hands and feet and bumped his head against the ground every time he climbed a step.
Really kowtow step by step.
He knocked so hard that a pool of blood oozed from his forehead.
"Haha, scholar, did you see that he is a guy who wants to come to Yunshan Taoist Temple to become a disciple."
Amid laughter, Butler Zhao and the Young Master arrived. Both of them have obviously practiced, their footwork is steady, and their strides are long.
The young master was a young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was handsome, rich and noble, with an arrogant expression and a very impatient look.
"If you want to become a disciple, you have to learn from him. Maybe you can win the pity of the immortals. If your heart softens, you may accept it. But don't misunderstand, it is definitely not as a disciple, but as a handyman, from carrying water to chopping firewood. Start.”
Butler Zhao said mockingly.
Chen Jin glanced at him and suddenly said: "If my guess is correct, you also brought people to apprentice, right?"
"Yes, my young master has been favored by the immortal, and he officially came to join us today."
Butler Zhao was very proud.
The young master muttered: "Uncle Six, what are you talking about with these irrelevant people? I thought I could go up the mountain on a sliding pole, but I have to walk by myself. It's boring."
"Young master, let's come to the entrance to become a disciple. To show our sincerity, we are not suitable to sit on the sliding pole."
Butler Zhao explained.
"I know, let's go."
"Okay."
Butler Zhao said repeatedly, but he did not forget to turn around and taunt: "Scholar, Yunshan is very high. You can climb slowly. Our family is waiting for you at the top."
With that said, the two of them walked quickly up the stairs.
Seeing this, Chen Min bit her lips and doubted in her heart: Can it really be possible for her brother to bring her to become a disciple? Will you finally get up, only to be kicked off immediately?
Chen Jin seemed to see through her thoughts and reached out to touch her head: "Xiao Min, let's go up too, don't think too much. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you are fast or slow on the way to climb the mountain. The most important thing is persistence. As long as Keep your faith and persevere, and one day you will be able to climb to the top of the mountain.”
The young man who was kowtowing every step of the way also heard these words, his eyes became firmer, and he continued to go up.
