Chapter 5 Why aren’t you going to hell
byBefore going to bed, Xia Tong looked in the mirror, but there was nothing on his head.
It's strange, she can see the luck merits of everyone's heads, but she can't see it.
"Could it be that she lacks 'virtue' too much?" Xia Tong muttered to himself, "That's right, if I didn't lack 'virtue', I wouldn't die without warning."
"Go to sleep."
There are two bedrooms on the sixth floor. Xia Tong didn't go to sleep in the tree house, but slept in the bedroom next to the stairwell, and his parents slept on the second floor.
Except for them, the other tenants sleeping on the second floor are all ghosts, and they are not afraid at all.
He said he wasn't afraid, but he wanted to save face in front of his daughter. Wang Dawei still felt too cloudy even though he was covered with two quilts. He shivered from the cold and kept turning over uneasily.
Charlene slapped her, "Tossing and turning to and fro, it's affecting my sleep, if you don't want to sleep, get out of here."
"Honey, aren't you afraid?" Wang Dawei was trembling even as he spoke.
"What are you afraid of? This is in Tongtian Temple. The ghosts who can come here are all ghosts with profound merit. People with brain problems want to kill you and add evil obstacles to themselves."
"How do you know?" Wang Dawei was dubious.
"I just know, go to sleep." Charlene turned and turned off the light impatiently.
Before today, Charlene had never been to Tongtian Temple, but she had heard many stories from her grandmother when she was a child. Every ghost who came was a ghost with profound merit.Their merits are not enough to pay for the boat.
These people paid such a high price to come to Tongtian Temple, of course they wanted something.
Early the next morning, Xia Tong was in the dining room, waiting for her father to make breakfast. Last night, the old man in a white coat with thinning hair came over and sat across from her familiarly.
Xia Tong conveniently poured a cup of tea, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Slept well. Oh, I'll be a ghost when I'm dead. Ghosts don't need to sleep to be very awake. If scientists and researchers can do this, let alone our country, the science and technology of the entire human race must be developing rapidly, and no one can stop it."
Xia Tong didn't know how to answer, "..." Still have this idea?
"Did you fall asleep last night?"
"Falling asleep. You are the boss of Tongtianguan, you don't know yet? What the hell, as soon as you arrive at your Tongtianguan, you eat and drink like a human being, and of course you can sleep. By the way, what do you have for breakfast in the restaurant? I pay for it."purchase."
"Heaven and Earth Bank?"
Yan Fei laughed, "It's okay for me to give Yin Qi. I heard from the boss of the boat that you can observe the sky and collect Yin Qi. This thing is in short supply in the world."
"You know a lot."
"I'm in technology. Before making a decision, I must do a good job of investigation."
Xia Tong called Dad, and Wang Dawei asked what he was doing.
"Give this ghost...an extra breakfast."
"OK!"
Yan Fei leaned on the chair relaxed, and said with a smile, "I didn't have time to ask last night, what's the girl's name?"
"Hi uncle, my name is Xia Tong."
"Seeing that you are not very old, are you still studying?"
"Well, I'm a senior at Jinjiang University."
"Jinjiang University, it turns out that the Tongtian Temple is in Jinjiang. I didn't know there was such a good place when I was alive. Xia Tong, I know the principal Feng of your school, and I am also a visiting professor of your school. Although I don't teach you, youIf you see me, you should also call me teacher."
"Your name?"
"Hehe, my name is Yan Fei."
"Hello, Teacher Yan."
Yan Fei was smart since he was a child, and his journey to school was smooth sailing. He became a master in nuclear power research at a young age. This kind of life experience has always been asked to see him by others. It is rare for him to take the initiative to make friends with others. Today, he is so kind.Lovely, what want is not small.
Yan Fei died suddenly a few days ago. When he died, he was leading his students to work overtime to research a new power system. He just found some ideas and died just like that. Before he experienced the legendary out-of-body experience, the ghost appeared in the underworld.
The ancestors of the Yan family were wealthy businessmen who did many good deeds and accumulated profound virtues for their descendants. Yan Fei himself also did many good deeds for the country and the people. His rich wealth allowed him to move freely in most places in the underworld. After asking ghosts to inquire,I heard that there are too many ghosts waiting in line to be reincarnated, and they have nothing to do. I heard that there is such a place as Tongtianguan, so I must not hesitate to spend money and merit to come here.
"I would like to ask you to help contact the Sixth Institute. I would like to talk to the person in charge of the Liu Institute."
"What is the six?"
"You could think of it as a department dedicated to engines."
"I can not do anything."
Yan Fei stared, "Why can't you do anything? Tongtian Temple can't control this matter?"
"You can have a dream."
"I'm afraid they won't believe it, student Xia, just take care of it, just tell me how much it will cost." He still doesn't know that the people he knows are all engaged in technology, so how can he believe this.
"I really don't need to take care of you, someone else will take care of your affairs." Xia Tong was proud that she had planned ahead and let Wang Yixiao and the others come in Tongtian Temple, otherwise this troublesome thing would fall on her.
"Who cares?"
"People from the Special Operations Department, they will be here in a while, you wait."
Chatted a few more words, breakfast is ready, this morning ate noodles, tomato and egg noodles.
Yan Fei picked up the chopsticks and was very happy, "Oh, in the underworld, I don't know how to be hungry every day, but I am greedy. Now I can eat decent food."
"Give me a copy too." The boss of the boat came down, and there were a few ghosts behind him.
"Wait a minute." Wang Dawei cooked so much that everyone could eat it.
Everyone is not polite, just sit down and eat, Xia Tong eats to his heart's content, the boss of the boat sighed, "It's not as good as the original cook in Tongtianguan."
The boss of the boat glanced at Xia Tong, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not just talking about the craftsmanship, but the ingredients of the meal."
Xia Tong didn't understand.
Ah Fu came over with a bowl of porridge and explained, "Isn't there a tree that looks like a ginkgo by the Heishui River in our backyard? The leaves that fall from the tree are good materials for making soul-inducing incense.Grind it into powder and add it to the dish, it is suitable for ghosts to eat."
The boss of the boat nodded, "Little Ah Fu knows more."
Ah Fu rolled his eyes, "Isn't this nonsense."
Xia Tong was curious, "Can people eat it?"
"Humans, ghosts and demons can eat it, and it has the effect of calming the mind. Although the effect is not as good as the fragrance of the divine paulownia wood, it is still a good thing."
"Isn't it better to use the leaves of the sacred paulownia tree?"
Ah Fu hurriedly said, "Don't make any plans for the sacred paulownia tree. Moreover, throughout the ages, no master of Tongtian Temple has ever been able to pick off the leaves of the divine paulownia tree."
Really?I do not believe.Go back and try her.
After gossiping for a long time, after breakfast, Yan Fei and Xia Tong got into an argument again, Xia Tong told him to calm down.
"I'm your teacher. Is this how you respect your teacher?"
"The work I do is very important. The important research materials are all in my mind. I died suddenly and I haven't handed them over to others. Do you know how many detours they can avoid in follow-up research with these materials?"
Xia Tong hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, someone will solve your problem right away."
"Don't fool me."
"Won't!"
At nine o'clock, the gate of Tongtian Temple rang, and Xia Tong hurried to open the door.
"You guys are here." Opening the door and seeing Wang Yixiao, Xia Tong called them in.
Wang Yixiao cried and laughed, "I can't come in."
He is not a predestined person.
"It's okay, I'll pull you in."
Wang Yixiao was pulled in, and the two staff brought by Wang Yixiao, Xiang Yang and Chen Panpan, could both go in by themselves.
Li Xuanqing, Li Puyi and little monk Huixin can also go in by themselves.
As soon as a few people entered the door, they saw a few people standing on the steps of Liuhe Building with their heels on the ground, they must be people.But looking at the faces of those people, they were as pale as ghosts.
"The ghost who arrived last night has an unfulfilled wish for you to resolve."
Li Xuanqing hurriedly took a step forward, "What should I do if I want to be saved? We do the best rituals in the Taoist Temple of Yuqing Temple."
Li Puyi disagreed, "Li Xuanqing, you have such a big face, have you asked our Chongyang Palace about this?"
The little monk Yuanjue walked over silently, bowed and performed a Buddhist ceremony, "Every benefactor, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, you can tell the little monk."
The two Taoists who were over fifty years old said, "You little monk, how dare you cut me off."
Yan Fei was very surprised in his heart. He used to think that these monks and priests were pretending to be ghosts, but he didn't expect that there were real things.
"I'm looking for someone from the Special Operations Department." Yan Fei looked at Xia Tong.
Xia Tong winked at Wang Yixiao, "Yan Fei said he is an expert professor who studies some kind of power machinery, a high-end talent, and he wants to find a unit called the Sixth Institute."
Wang Yixiao rushed to meet him, "Are you Professor Yan Feiyan?"
"it's me!"
Both Xiang Yang and Chen Panpan's eyes widened. They were completely frightened. A few days ago, Professor Yan Fei's obituary appeared in the newspaper. Today they saw someone in Tongtian?
No, this is a ghost!
Ghosts can shake hands with people, so this is a person?
My mind is messed up!
"Xiang Yang, come here." Wang Yixiao waved to Xiang Yang.
There are three houses on the left and right of the front yard of Tongtian Temple, one for the special operations office, one for Li Xuanqing and Li Puyi, and one for the little monk Wishing and Huixin.
"Wish?"
"Wish?" Xia Tong didn't think of this person from last night to this morning.
Ah Fu floated over, "He went out before closing the door last night, and he hasn't come back yet."
Huixin was a little worried, "Where can I go at such a young age?"
"Don't worry, don't look at him as a primary school student. Since he can come here alone from thousands of miles away, it means that his ability to live alone is not bad."
"If you have his phone number, let's call and ask."
"No."
Li Xuanqing came out from the next room, "Boss Xia, let's create a group. We will come and go frequently in the future. If you have something to do, you can call in the group."
"Can't build a group."
"Why?"
"Because there is no internet."
"Let me take a look." Li Xuanqing took out his mobile phone from under the Taoist robe, opened it, hey, there is really no internet.
Li Puyi is not an old antique either, so he asked, "How about ordering takeaway?"
"Go outside the door, there is a signal at the door."
Li Pu raised his head and looked towards Liuhe Building, "Is there a signal jammer upstairs?"
"Hehe." Xia Tong didn't want to answer.
Wang Yixiao and Yan Fei closed the door and talked in the room for an hour, Xiang Yang opened the door and came out, just in time to meet the wish of entering the door.
"Primary school student, you are back."
"Don't call me a primary school student, call me Master Zhu." Zhu Zhu's mouth curled up.
Xia Tong laughed and said, "Master Zhu, what did you do last night?"
"The heavenly secret must not be leaked."
Wang Yixiao came out, Zhu Zhu asked Wang Yixiao, "There is an additional police station across the road from Tongtianguan, did you arrange it?"
"Yes, we have arranged a sub-station across the road. It will be more convenient for Xiangyang and the others to notify the police station if something happens in the future, and it will also reduce the burden on the staff who stop Tongtian Temple."
Wang Yixiao handed over the letter of appointment to Xia Tong, "The salary card is also processed together."
Xia Tong smiled and thanked him. This is a job that costs less and is closer to home.
Wang Dawei washed his hands and came out, "Xia Tong, order out for lunch by yourself, and your mother and I will go to the supermarket to have a look."
"Brother, let's leave a phone number. I'll contact you when the spring tea comes down." Li Xuanqing took the initiative to walk over.
"Okay, thanks a lot."
The window of Tianzi No. 1 room on the second floor opened, and the boat boss yelled, "What's new about takeaway?"
Xia Tong instructed Ah Fu, "Go and explain to him."
Ah Fu went up to explain, and the boss of the boat said, "How about ordering, let me see what's delicious now."
The boss of the boat has been an old ghost for many years, and he can’t remember anything about his life. The only thing he remembers is that when he was a child, there was a famine.To a piece of sweet potato cake covered in ashes, this is the most delicious food in his memory.
Ah Fu complained, "I don't have a mobile phone."
Xiang Yang wanted to get closer to the employees of Tongtianguan, so he offered to donate his mobile phone, "I have it."
"I can't use yours." Ah Fu stared at Xia Tong.
Xia Tong rolled her eyes and called her dad to stop.
"What's the matter?" Wang Dawei had already stepped over the threshold.
"When you come back at night to buy a mobile phone, you want the cheapest counterfeit phone, as long as you can surf the Internet."
"Don't be so stingy, buy at least one thousand, and where did you get the domestic copycat? Stay in the temple, don't go out, and wait for me and your mother to come back at night."
The ghosts who came last night were quite humane, and today Taoist monks came to the temple again, and Wang Dawei's voice became louder.
The new mobile phone can only be bought in the afternoon. When ordering takeout at noon, Xia Tong was surrounded by ghosts. It was so annoying that he ordered his own and gave them the mobile phone.
"Each person can only order takeout for a maximum of 20 yuan, and I won't pay if I order too much."
"I have money!"
"I have banknotes from Tiandi Bank."
"I have yellow paper money."
"..."
"Stop!" Xia Tong stopped them, "The merchant only wants RMB!"
Several ghosts shut up resentfully, and one of them, who had only been dead for a year or two, whispered, "It would be great if there was a bank in heaven and earth, and money can be exchanged between the underworld and the world."
"Hehe, that's a good idea."
Yan Fei chuckled, he didn't need to look at people for what he wanted to eat, and before he could say anything, Comrade Xiang Yang from the office came over and asked him what he wanted to eat."gzh: It's going to be a cool day in a floating life"
"Braised pig's trotters, twice-cooked pork, spicy ribs, hot pot..." Yan Fei ordered more than a dozen items before reluctantly stopping, "Eat these at noon, and talk about the rest in the evening."
Xiang Yang thought while ordering takeaway, and later he would apply for a little more funding from the leader.
The threshold of Tongtian Temple was full of people and ghosts who couldn't get out. Xiang Yang stood by the green belt outside Tongtian Temple, and when he finished ordering takeout, he turned around to see the boss of Tongtian Temple, a professor who is good at pointing fingers, and a group of big brothers and ghosts who have so much merit that they can squander them at will, all looked at him eagerly, with envious eyes as if they were real.
Comrade Xiangyang, the poor little handyman, is very happy in his heart!
After lunch, Xia Tong went back to the sixth floor to rest. Standing in front of the mirror, she took photos again and again. Where is her merit?Several ghosts have been staying for one night, and her merits haven't arrived yet?
Alas, Xia Tong was listless and lethargic. He circled around the garden on the right a few times, and somehow he came to the door of the tree house. When he stepped in, Xia Tong instantly became full of energy.
what happened?
This tree also has the effect of Red Bull?
One step back, Xia Tong still felt quite energetic, but not as energetic as in the tree house, she stepped in again, um, really energetic.
Xia Tong went to the study to look through the manuscripts, so that's it!
According to the manuscript records, firstly, the divine paulownia tree needs merit to grow; secondly, the divine paulownia tree is also known as the soul-nourishing wood, which contains a huge vitality.In the tree house, isn't it full of energy.
Although he couldn't go to Tongtian Temple for the time being, Xia Tong was still happy and discovered another benefit of Tongtian Temple.
Xia Tong resolutely abandoned last night's bedroom and went to sleep in the tree house with the pillow in his arms. This quality of sleep is unique!After waking up from sleep, Xia Tong felt that he could do a set of math papers mentally, with full marks.
It's just that she slept for a long time, and when she woke up, it was already dark outside the tree house.
Xia Tong went downstairs, and Alfred floated over, "Wang Yixiao has been waiting for you for three or four hours, and I need you."
"What's up?"
"He wants to rent another room as Yan Fei's laboratory. If you agree, they will move the laboratory here tomorrow."
"Then are they going to send someone over?"
"It is said that four researchers will be sent over, come in to work during the day, and go back after get off work at night."
"Can Yan Fei let them get off work?" Yan Fei said that being a ghost is better than being a human, and that he can do research 24 hours a day and still be in good spirits.
"In addition, they sent four more people in. Although they don't live here, they want to rub our god Tongmu?"
"You finally discovered the benefits of Shentongmu." Ah Fu laughed, the eyes behind the round glasses looked like a fox when he smiled.
Xia Tong glanced at him, "I am the boss of Tongtianguan, you are my employee, pay attention to your attitude."
Hmph, don't think of her, every time he mocks her, he just says you, full of irony.
There are three vacant rooms on the left side of the front yard, and they are rented out for their use. However, although the four researchers don’t stay at Tongtian Temple at night, they still have to pay per person.
Help when you can, but never do charity.
"You have the final say, I'll call you the money right away!"
Xia Tong nodded with satisfaction, "The original price of accommodation is 10,000 yuan a night. Considering that we are in the same unit, I will give you a 50% discount on the internal price. By the way, if you only come to work during the day and do not stay at night, you can also get a 10% discount."
The price of accommodation is indeed a bit expensive. How much will it cost for two employees to live for a year?
Wang Yixiao is a ruthless person. Xia Tong was stunned when he countered the price. He had only heard of those who asked for a zero change, but never heard of those who only gave a small change.
Xia Tong didn't want to tug-of-war with him, so he directly said a price and asked him if he agreed.
Before noon today, she only knew that the location of Tongtian Temple was important, but now she knew that living in Tongtian Temple had so many intangible benefits.To be honest, she felt that she set a low price of 5,000, and gave them a discount based on the internal price.
You know, Li Xuanqing and the others don't have this discount.
Besides, Tongtian Temple's income is hers, and she can use the money she earns to do good deeds and earn a fortune.
Xia Tong thinks it is cheap, while Chen Panpan and Xiang Yang think it is expensive.The two stood silently on the side, not daring to speak. Their annual wages were not as much as a fraction of their accommodation expenses. The cost was indeed a bit high.
It's still the happiness of people having the Taoism passed down from their ancestors. They get a salary for nothing, and they can also charge a large amount of accommodation fees.
In the evening, Wang Dawei and Xia Lin finished their work in the store and brought a mobile phone when they came back. Ah Fu looked at Xia Tong expectantly, and Xia Tong handed it to him.
"Thank you, Uncle Wang, Aunt Xia."
Xia Tong clicked his tongue, "My parents are not old enough for you to be a ghost, you have the nerve to call my parents uncle and aunt?"
"I'd love to call!"
Ah Fu had figured out the general functions of the mobile phone, and sat on the threshold after getting the mobile phone. After playing for a while, he found out that he had the mobile phone, but there was no mobile phone card, and no bank card was bound.
Ah Fu: ... not happy.
Charlene: "Yo, we really forgot about this, don't panic, tomorrow I will issue a mobile phone card for you with my ID card, and I will also issue a bank card for you."
"Mom, do you still want to raise him?"
"Ah Fu can order takeout at most, how much can he spend?"
Ah Fu's eyes were full of tears, Aunt Xia was so kind to me!
Wang Dawei was cooking in the kitchen. Xiang Yang and Chen Panpan had good eyesight and followed up to help in the kitchen. After an hour, four dishes and one soup were served.
Ghosts sit at the same table, monks and priests sit at the same table with Xiang Yang and Chen Panpan, and their family of three sits at the same table.
Xia Tong just sat down without taking a bite, Zhu Zhu went straight to Xia Tong with his rice bowl in hand.
Xia Tong: "..." What does this kid mean?
Wishing you to be confident, "I agreed that you will take care of me."
"When did you agree? Why don't I know?"
"Didn't I tell you the day I came here, the master of Tongtianguan from the previous generation..."
"All right, all right, you're a Taoist priest, why don't you sit with them?"
"They have no meat on the table."
"Can you eat meat?"
"Of course! I'm a child, and I still have to grow up." Zhu Zhu raised his head.
Charlene picked up food for her daughter, "Why are you arguing with a child over a meal, eat quickly, your dad bought your favorite braised pig's trotters."
"I wish you don't stand, sit down and eat."
Xia Tong took a pig's trotter and gnawed it, "In our area, it turns out that Grandpa Wang sells the best stewed vegetables. He passed away a few years ago, and there is no one to succeed him. It's a pity that he has such a good craftsmanship."
"I heard that old man Wang has a son who also learned to cook. He learned Western food. After graduation, he went to work as a chef in a star-rated hotel in a big city. He didn't take over from his father."
"head chef?"
"No, it seems to be the second chef?" It was said by their relatives who came back three years ago when they held a funeral for Old Man Wang.
"Tch, Grandpa Wang's son should be in his forties this year. After studying for so many years, he is still a second chef. Why not go home and open a stewed meat stall?"
Wang Dawei agrees with his daughter, "Old man Wang is not only good at selling stewed pork. Their family's cooking skills are passed down from their ancestors. It is said that their ancestors have served as imperial cooks. Old man Wang opened a decent restaurant when he was young. Later, his son went to a big city. His healthIf you can’t hold it, it will be shut down.”
He said that the stewed pig's trotters were not as delicious as Wang's, but Xia Tong ate them with relish, and there was not a single piece left.
After dinner, Xiangyang and Chen Panpan helped clean the kitchen. Wang Dawei privately told his daughter that the two young men they sent were too sensible.
"It's not good for a long time, Dad, let's find a chef." With the money Tongtianguan makes, it's no problem to raise a chef.
"The view of Tongtian is special, and I may not be able to find a suitable one for a while."
"Too!"
When going upstairs, Xia Tong asked the boat boss, "How many days are you coming to stay?"
"Tomorrow evening I will take the four of them away, Yan Fei wants to stay."
Yan Fei quickly said, "I would like to thank my ancestors for their good deeds. I have a lot of good deeds, and I can live here for at least a month."
The other four ghosts cast envious looks at him.Living in Tongtian Temple for a month, how does Lingtai look like?When reincarnated in the next life, he must be a very smart person.
No, tonight want to give dreams to the younger generation at home, must do more good deeds and accumulate virtues, accumulating virtues is really beneficial!
By the way, there is another advantage of coming to the Tongtian Temple, which is to be able to entrust dreams, and one entrusts one to one.But it's hard to say whether the person you dreamed of will come to Tongtian Temple or not.
Knowing that there is no boat coming tonight, Xia Tongan went upstairs to sleep with peace of mind, sleeping in the tree house!
In the middle of the night, all the people and ghosts in Liuhe Building fell asleep, and no one noticed. The leaves of Shentong wood around the tree house gave off a soft green light, and the tree house surrounded by soft light was like a fairyland.
In the dream, Xia Tong dreamed that she became a tree, waving its branches like a bully, and the branches slapped the ground and made a crackling sound, just like her insane laughter.
Accidentally, a little red chick ran over from nowhere, its leg was broken by her hammer, and it wailed.
The bully found out his conscience, apologized and coaxed him, and even made a tree house on his head, promising to let Chick Cub live there until he recovers.
With a frail little chick on his head, the bully no longer dares to do evil, and dare not provoke anything other than talking to the little chicken every day.
Xia Tong woke up and couldn't remember the details. She rubbed her rosy face, "I seemed to dream about a chicken last night? Do I want to eat stewed chicken? Or do I want to eat fried chicken?"
The fried chicken at the north gate of the school is delicious.After thinking about it for a while, Xia Tong sat up suddenly, it's too bad, it's time to go back to school today.
He ran downstairs, Wang Yixiao didn't live in Tongtian Temple at night, Xia Tong went to Chen Panpan to ask her about her class.
Chen Panpan was surprised, "You didn't read the document that Director Wang gave you yesterday. It contained the leave slip approved by the school. You just need to go for the final exam."
"Oh, that's good. What reason did you ask for leave?"
"Of course it's because you're in poor health. Didn't your internal organs fail when you went to the hospital for an examination? You just used the prescription from the hospital to ask for leave, and your counselor asked us to convey the greetings from the school, telling you to take good care of your health at home."
What a thoughtful thought!
In the afternoon, Wang Yixiao drove a few large trucks with people to deliver things. Xia Tong performed her job duties and pulled each worker into the door.
Looking at their straight bodies, they don't look like ordinary workers.
Yan Fei ran along with him, chanting non-stop, "Be careful, this instrument can't be bumped, it's over if you touch it, and the running data will be inaccurate. Be careful with that measuring instrument, put it against the wall, yesThat's right, that's right."
The four researchers were all the core members of Yan Feidai's research team. At this moment, when they saw Professor Yan who was alive and kicking, they suddenly felt that the world is so illusory. How can the dead come back to life?Is this unscientific?Newton's big coffin board was pulled to the underworld by gravity?
"You four, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and help."
"oh oh."
After setting up all the instruments and equipment he had brought, Yan Fei looked at the crude laboratory with satisfaction and regret, "Just use it."
After finishing all this work, it was already half afternoon, and the boat boss and the others were leaving.
A Fu put a few pieces of golden ginkgo leaves picked up last night into the stewed meat soup last night, and stewed five stewed chickens.The chicken is not cooked yet, and the aroma has just wafted out. The boss of the boat took a deep breath and was very addicted, "This is the smell."
Ghosts are ghosts without substance, and they are more sensitive than humans to the things that nourish the soul.Xia Tong only thought that this smell was a little more fragrant than ordinary stewed meat, but the ghosts felt that this smell was simply captivating.
A total of five chickens were divided into three for the boss of the boat and four ghosts, and the remaining two were for others to eat.
The boss of the boat ate and hated it at the same time, the craftsmanship was too poor, and these few leaves were wasted.
Ah Fu sneered, he didn’t remember eating the meat, there would be no next time.
"Look at you, I'm just talking casually, Brother Ah Fu is still angry, our friendship for thousands of years, it's not enough!"
Xia Tong heard the two quarreling, hey, how old is this boat boss?After so many years, I haven't been on a ghost job, and I'm still rowing.
When the time came, the boss of the boat brought a reluctant ghost on board.
In the dark night, the boat pole was set up, and slowly drifted away with the sound of the boat's sliding water.
The night wind blows, and the emerald green ginkgo tree rolls in the wind. In an instant, it turns into gold. There are five leaves, which flutter down from the treetops, and Ah Fu picks up four leaves.
"Why don't you pick that one?" A leaf fell on the water and drifted with the current.
"Those that fall into the Heishui River are the things on the Styx River. They are not ours and cannot be picked up!"
The lights under the porch and on the eaves of the Liuhe Building are on. There is light in the front, but the backyard is getting darker.
Xia Tong walked towards the bright place with his heart in mind. On one side of the path was the unpredictable Heishui River, and on the other side was the more mysterious Vangu Forest.
"The ghosts are here, why haven't the demons come yet?"
"Demon?" Ah Fu held up a lantern to show her the way, "The Eternal Forest on the Tongtian Temple side is safe, but the Eternal Forest on the other side of the Demon Realm is one of the most dangerous places in the Demon Realm. Ordinary demons can't get through easily..”
"It's miserable!"
Xia Tong hypocritically felt sorry for the monsters, thinking in her heart that the ghosts from the demon world would not come, and she would lose a lot of merit.
Ah Fu understood her, and said bluntly, "Don't feel bad, monsters generally don't provide much merit. The most they can do is to come to Tongtian Temple to exchange some things, and then go to the world to open their eyes through Tongtian Temple, and go back to the demon world to brag with other monsters!"
Tsk!
Back in the bright Liuhe Building, Xia Tong suddenly stopped, turned to ask Ah Fu, "Have you received a commission?"
"received."
Xia Tong also received it, and hurriedly found a mirror, and saw that there was a golden light floating on his head, and it was also slightly green.
Gold and green?How is she so special?No wonder she was the Chosen One.
Xia Tong happily walked and jumped, ran to the gate, tentatively stretched out her legs, hey, it's okay, stretched out another leg, and stood outside the gate of Tongtian Temple.
Xia Tong put his hands on his hips and laughed three times triumphantly. I, Hu Hansan, are back again!
Ah Fu looked at her: ...Look, there is a fool over there!
Xiang Yang and Chen Panpan whispered to Ah Fu, "What's wrong with Boss Xia?"
"It's okay, a neuropathy attack, it will be fine in a while!"
The connection between Xia Tong's lifespan and Tongtian Temple is unknown to anyone except the three members of Xia's family and Ah Fu, and it is impossible for Ah Fu to tell others.The watch master was lured out and could easily die outside.
Feeling that there are still many merits and virtues, and his parents are away, no one cares, Xia Tong decides to be presumptuous, and trots to the intersection ahead to buy milk tea.
"Boss, I want a cup of poplar nectar!"
"Scan code or cash."
"Scan code!"
"Seventeen yuan, thank you!"
"OK!"
Taking a sip of the poplar nectar that I bought with my own hands, this is the feeling, happy, excited, excited!
On the way back, Xia Tong stopped running and walked slowly. After walking a few steps, she paid attention to how much merit she had left. She was always ready to run wildly to save her life when the merit was almost exhausted.
"You look so pretty when you smile, like a spring flower..."
"Hello."
"My God, Miss Xia Xiaotong, you finally got through. We heard from the counselor that you were going to take a long vacation, but we couldn't get through to you. We thought what happened to you."
Xia Tong coughed and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine now, and I'll definitely go back to school when the final exam is in a few days."
"That's good. By the way, you don't live in the dormitory. We will wash the sheets tomorrow. Let's help you take off the quilt and wash together."
"Okay, thank you."
"Sister in a dormitory, please be polite, get back to health soon."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Tong glanced at Gongde, walked slowly with milk tea in his arms, suddenly she stopped, what did she see?
The old man under the street lamp seems to be the old man who sells braised pork.
Wang Yong also saw her, his old face was smiling like a broken chrysanthemum blown by rain and wind.
"Tongtong, I am your grandpa Wang!"
"Hello, Grandpa Wang!" After two or three days of tempering, Xia Tong was no longer afraid of the friendly ghosts.
"What is Grandpa Wang doing here? Why..." Why isn't he going to hell?
Wang Yong laughed, "I was worried about my son, and he didn't want to leave, so he stayed. Who knows that kid hasn't come back in the past two or three years, and I haven't seen him."
Xia Tong felt a little sad when he heard it, "Grandpa Wang still has to wait?"
"Wait, that kid is stubborn, I know he wants to look like a man before he comes back to see me, I can afford to wait now, even for years."
Xia Tong glanced at the few merits left, and speeded up his speech, "Grandpa Wang, why don't you go to Tongtian Temple with me? Anyway, you are idle, why don't you go to Tongtian Temple to be a cook, and you can also give WangUncle Tuomeng, kill two birds with one stone!"
"Can I go in?"
After Wang Yong's death, he has been wandering in the west of the city. As soon as he got close to the Tongtian Temple, he felt an invisible oppression that prevented him from approaching.
"If you can, I'll take you in!"
The merits were running out, Xia Tong pulled Wang Yong to run, ran too fast, tripped over the threshold, Chen Panpan, who was standing at the door, caught her.
Wang Yong, who was dragged in by Xia Tong, took a deep breath, his old face that had been blown by wind and rain did not change, but he felt that his inner self was like the roots of old trees sprouting, his body was full of vitality, and he was refreshed from head to toe.
"Where did you bring the ghost in?"
"It was pulled in by the side of the road. Let me introduce you, Grandpa Wang, who was a royal chef in his ancestors, and will be our chef in Tongtian Temple in the future!"
"Don't dare to act, dare not act."
Wang Yong is modest, but Ah Fu is very interested in him, "Is the person who was the imperial cook in your ancestors called Wang Erzhu? It's been... three hundred years since now, I remember, he lived in ShanshanThe former mountain village over there."
Wang Yong's eyes lit up, "Yes, yes, the name is right, the time is right, and the place is right. The ancestor of my family's ancestor who was an imperial cook was called Wang Erzhu. Have you met my ancestor?"
"Hehe, I didn't see it when I was alive, but I saw it after my death. After Wang Erzhu died, in order to accumulate merit for his descendants, he worked as a cook in Tongtian Temple for twenty years."
Wang Yong was sad, his family was unlucky, his ancestors worked hard when they were alive, and they had to give consideration to future generations when they died. Unfortunately, when it comes to him, the inheritance is still broken.
Ah Fucai doesn't care about inheritance or not, as long as there is delicious food, it is serious.
Xia Tong nodded secretly, he was right!
Her parents saw that she was gradually getting used to it, and they didn't come to Tongtianguan to sleep in the past two nights, so she either ate takeaway or the porridge and noodles cooked by Ah Fu.
The awesome master of Tongtianguan wants to eat delicious food!
Wang Yong also figured it out, he wanted to learn from his ancestors back then, and be a good cook in Tongtian Temple, so as to accumulate virtue for future generations.
That night, with the benefit of Tongtian Temple, Wang Yong finally succeeded in entrusting his son with a dream. When he thought that the ancestral craftsmanship was broken, he didn't feel sorry for his son.In a word: Go back to your hometown during the Chinese New Year, and come to Tongtian Temple to see your father!
Wang Dazhi, who was awakened by a dream in the middle of the night, could no longer sleep, sat up from the bed, and woke up his wife.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I dreamed that my dad scolded me and told me to go back to my hometown to see him during the Chinese New Year."
Wang Dazhi's daughter-in-law, He Xiaoling, is completely awake. She doesn't believe in ghosts. Thinking about it, it must be because her husband misses his father-in-law. She thinks about it every day and dreams at night.
"Then let's go back for the New Year."
Wang Dazhi was a little embarrassed, "I'm afraid the hotel will keep me on duty."
He Xiaoling said angrily, "Last year and the year before last, you were on duty, so it's your turn to rest."
"Hey, there is still more than a month before Chinese New Year, wait and see."
"I don't care, just wait until your dad gives you another dream tomorrow night."
Wang Dazhi felt his body tremble, his hairs stood on end, don't say these things in the middle of the night.scary!
With a goal in mind, he scolded his son again in a dream. Wang Yong only felt refreshed when he got up in the morning. When Xia Tong got up and had breakfast, hey, steamed dumplings, steamed buns, deep-fried dough sticks, white porridge, hot and sour noodles, bowls of noodles,And various side dishes.
So many choices, which one should eat?
happy!
I wish that kid was happier than her. There were two empty bowls in front of him, and he was still eating.
Li Xuanqing and Li Puyi, who feel that they are old and should be respected, are not polite and eat whatever they want.
Xia Tong wanted to post a circle of friends, but unfortunately, there is no internet in Tongtianguan, so she was not happy to go to the gate in order to post a circle of friends.
Xia Tong was not happy, Ah Fu was happy, and passed by, took a picture of the breakfast and posted it on a certain blog, and a group of netizens liked it.
Ah Fu is also happy!
Xia Tong is depressed, when will he connect to the Internet!
