Chapter 456 The old man with white beard
It's really a bowl of egg drop soup.
In the delicate small porcelain bowl, there were a few oil flowers floating in the air. A white and red poached egg was dipped in the soup, and a silver spoon was leaning next to it.
Hu Ma watched Fairy Miaoshan pick it up and carefully put it on the table next to her, without touching it. She just sighed in her heart: What are you doing with this crap? Don't you have enough blood food pills?
Naturally, he was still polite on his face, and just said: "Why do you need to do this, leader? After all, I am just a helper. Regardless of the matter of not eating cows, as a money leader, I only get your guidance. Just try your best!"
“The leader is so kind…”
On the contrary, Fairy Miaoshan sighed after listening to Hu Ma's words: "You said you were just here to help. You asked me to take off my Taoist robes..."
"But that's right. The master who doesn't eat cows must get the consent of his senior brothers. There is still one sentence missing. But the leader has passed three levels and twelve tribulations, and has also cultivated the Dharma Body of the Great Mighty God General. How can he still do it? Does anyone dare to deny him?"
"I am a junior. Isn't it right for me to serve my uncle...?"
Thinking in his heart, he lowered his posture more and more, unable to hide the joy in his eyebrows, and reported to Hu Ma: "We have restrained this monster corpse, and we have taught everyone to be very excited."
“The lantern festival this night will definitely be lively.”
This feeling is rarely seen on the faces of aborigines. Even because of the expression on Miaoshan Fairy's face, he suddenly remembered that this feeling was rarely seen on his own body.
But now when she said this, it didn't sound like she was joking. Instead, she had a rare firmness and a sense of faith.
…“…I'm about to ask the teacher uncle!”
When Fairy Miaoshan heard this, she said sternly: "Our master was destined to not eat cows as disciples. He has a heavy responsibility, but he can be informal. He can bully officials, bandits, and ghosts and gods, but he must not bully the common people."
Hearing this, Fairy Miaoshan also hurriedly dug out a stack of account books and rosters from the cabinet next to her, and placed them one by one in front of Hu Ma.
“However, for the Lantern Festival, there must be a guardian spirit on the altar to bless the believers and the people. However, several of the guardian spirits in our religion have been killed. I don't know where to find one on top..."
Hu Ma originally had a question to ask her, but was suddenly distracted by her words: "Lighting Festival?"
"Um?"
Fairy Miaoshan said hurriedly: "I listened to the instructions of my senior brothers and came here to operate for many years, just to set up a main altar in Shima Town. But now it has become quite popular, but I still lack this blessing of lights. The meeting has decided the name. Now that we are fully prepared, the time has come.”
"The Yiqian Sect had promised that this day would be the Lantern Festival. Now that the day has come, the people are waiting for it, but that promise cannot be broken..."
My mood became a little complicated. After a long time, I slowly let out a breath and said softly: "Have you already prepared the account books and other things that I asked you to prepare earlier?"
"Of course!"
Just when Hu Ma was in a state of confusion, she was suddenly stunned when she heard these words from Fairy Miaoshan.
"good."
“After my uncle gave the order, everything was ready.”
"You can bully officials, bully bandits, and bully ghosts and gods, but you can't bully the people?"
Hu Madu couldn't help but laugh: "We are already facing a disaster, but you are still thinking about this so-called Lantern Festival?"
He looked through the door and saw the clear face of Fairy Miaoshan outside. When he first met this beautiful Taoist nun, he felt that she had a mysterious and noble temperament. After he saw through the real situation, he kept seeing her confused face. Mostly expressions.
About the development of the Yiqian Sect, the number of soldiers in the sect, the magic weapons of the sect, and the list of Dharma kings and protectors, all are here. It can be said that all the foundations of the Yiqian Sect are directly given to Hu Ma.
This woman said that she was clear-headed, but she was not without brains. Earlier, Huma had passed three levels and twelve tribulations. She had already kowtowed and called herself the leader. She seemed obedient, but the account books she was asked to prepare were not like this either. Really give it all.
But now, seeing the scene of Hu Ma cultivating into the mighty Tiangong General Seal, she was really convinced, and now she can tell everything about her family.
“When did you set this place up as the Yiqian Sect's main altar? When you came here, there was already that stone horse in the town?”
Hu Ma took the account book and asked her a few questions casually while flipping through it.
I asked her for help earlier because I wanted to see if the foundation of this Qianjiao was strong and whether I could compete with the lobby official outside. Now I also want to know more about the Yiqianjiao and see if I can find out anything about it. The secret of "Awakening the Stone Horse".
When Fairy Miaoshan heard this, she was very excited. You see, although the leader said that he was just a helpful outsider, wasn't he trying very hard to understand the affairs within the church?
So everything was told out. Listening to her story, it did make Hu Ma understand a little bit more about the Yiqian Sect, but it was strange that when it came to the Shima, the Miaoshan Fairy looked confused, as if she didn't know anything at all.
“Isn't a stone horse just a stone horse?”
“We were in this town many years ago. When we came over, the grass almost drowned the horses..."
She didn't look like she was lying, and said honestly: "If you like it, uncle, then I'll have it moved over and made a decoration for you... But what's the use of this thing? "
Hu Ma had no choice but to wave his hand and said, "That's not necessary. It's just that I think most of the Qianqian Sect's foundations are in the prefectures of Gunzhou, but why is the main altar set up here?"
"this…"
Xiangu Miaoshan was startled and said: "Senior brothers asked me to come here..."
"Actually, before I came here, the senior brothers had already arranged things here. Mr. Sun, Master Tang from Dashanbao, Wanma Gang, Uncle Xia, etc... are all the connections left by the senior brothers back then. I Just come over and they will come over."
“Are you really just a red light girl?”
Hu Ma asked a few questions one after another, confirming that what she was dealing with here was just commonplace things, but on a deeper level, it was also something she wanted to know. She didn't seem to know much, so she could only let her work on it first.
She slowly turned up the thin account she stayed, and wanted to find a clue that maybe even Miaoshan Xiangu didn't know from it.
“The message left by Dahongpao mentioned Shima, and the disciples who don't eat cows have also chosen this place a long time ago. Does this mean that there may be any secrets hidden here?”
“That stone horse is obviously just a clay sculpture with a stone body. How can we wake it up?”
I was thinking silently in my heart, and after flipping through it for a long time, I became more and more confused. There were a lot of records in this account book, but each one of them was real, but it didn't look like there were any secret clues.
At first glance, it seems that the Yiqian Sect still has some foundations. Nowadays, there are more than a thousand people in Shima Town, and most of them are followers of the Yiqian Sect.
Among these believers, they have been trained and can be equipped with talisman weapons. There are about one or two hundred of them who are uniformly deployed. Or they can call from high places and distribute food, money and armor. I am afraid that they can collect seven in a short time. Eight hundred strong men came.
The number may seem small, but it is actually quite impressive. In this small town, the seven or eight hundred Fu Jia Army has the ability to cross the state and county to attack the government. Moreover, it is said that there are seven or eight hundred people, but in fact When trouble breaks out, Wu Wu is often called an army of tens of thousands.
From this Fu Jiajun, we can be sure that the Yiqian Sect is really prepared to do big things, and is not just boasting.
However, considering the ability of the Tiejun lobby officer outside, Hu Ma still felt heavy.
Of course, the Yiqian Sect has a strong foundation. It consists of one leader, two altar envoys, eight altar envoys, four Dharma kings, and the disciples and grandsons of the Dharma king who serve the guests in the hall. No matter how you look at it, they are all powerful. Gang.
But only one of the two altar envoys is here, and the eight altar envoys are only capable of ascending the hierarchy. The four Dharma kings and a group of disciples and descendants have all been disabled and cannot help.
There are also objects with magical powers, such as the ten large jars, which hold some blessings, and there are also some talismans, bows, swords, etc., which are naturally useful at ordinary times, but when facing the lobby official, I am afraid that Not enough.
Among them, the most abundant items in Shima Town are actually grain, cattle, sheep, and medicinal materials...
…Why are you hoarding so many things?
With a slight sigh, Hu Ma threw the account book aside. He was already vaguely certain in his heart. It seemed that he couldn't find any information about Shi Ma from this. He was even more certain. It's a joke to confront the Shousui lobby official.
“I wonder if Brother Erguotou, Miss Baijiu and the others can get here in time…”
I couldn't help but think about it. Earlier, Houerjiu had delivered a message for him, and he had done it smoothly. These few people also knew the importance and set out immediately. But the key point is that the distance between these two places is not short. !
How can they really be able to rush here to help within three days?
More importantly, even if they come, do these fellow villagers really have any means to help deal with the Tiejun lobby official?
Brother Erguotou seems to be not good at it. He said before that he had learned his skills at the level of entering the government. He was afraid of being discovered, so he stopped and did not continue to learn further.
But as for Miss White Wine…
Sighed lowly, it was not that I had no expectations in my heart, but it was still not easy to think about things in an ideal direction.
Just when Hu Ma was feeling a little depressed and sighing in a low voice, a gust of wind blew across the courtyard. The branches of this locust tree drooped down, covering the entire courtyard, and made a rustling sound, which sounded like an old man sighing in a low voice.
He has not touched the pillow for two days and one night. Even though the old man is strong, he is still a little confused now that he is quiet.
But when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a "squeak" and the door was pushed open. Outside, a stooped old man with a white beard walked in with a smile and politely offered his hand to Hu Ma: "My little husband is so polite..."
"My surname is Yu. I come from West Kunlun and have lived here for more than sixty years. I just heard my young husband sighing worriedly and took the liberty to come to visit. Is there anything I can do to help?"
