Chapter 62: Meeting
Chapter 62 Meeting
The old Taoist curled his lips, obviously having some opinions on Xiao Yu's sharing of his money, but he didn't say much, while Master Bai stood aside without saying a word. He knew that although Xiao Yu was young, he was very smart. Xiao Yu did this because he didn't want him to owe him anything, and Master Bai also had his thoughts on Xiao Yu's so-called test.
After all, Master Bai has been in the Taoist sect for more than ten years. Although he has no ability, he knows this kind of Taoist information well. The test of Taoism is nothing more than talent, wealth, etiquette, and enlightenment. Of course, more importantly, loyalty is loyalty. No matter whether you have both virtue and talent or have a high level of understanding, if you do not have loyalty, no master is willing to accept such disciples.
"Hehe, don't worry about me. Although I am not a high-ranking official, the Taoist temple can bring me a considerable income every month. There is no problem with life. But if you are willing to share it with me, then I don't mind, after all, who thinks that you have too much money?"
Master Bai’s way of doing this is not hypocritical, but also shows the reality. Every day on the first and fifteenth day of his Taoist temple, people in the surrounding villages would go to incense sticks, and his income was 5,000 or 6,000. In the countryside, 5,000 or 6,000 is considered a high income, but it is indeed a bit difficult to maintain the operation of a Taoist temple.
Xiao Yu and the other two were arranged to a villager's home. Although the villagers' home was dilapidated, it was relatively spacious and clean! After knowing that Xiao Yu and the others were Taoist priests, the villagers' family also respected Xiao Yu and the others in particular, and took out the dried fruits from the house and some stored fruit wine to entertain Xiao Yu and the others.
This time, Old Dao Li took out 100 yuan generously, which was considered the accommodation fee he had used in the past two days, which made Xiao Yu look at him with some admiration.
At night, Captain Huang and Officer Sun gathered everyone together and told Xiao Yu that the archaeological team of his sect would enter the ancient tomb tomorrow. They just needed to follow in and then catch the zombies inside. However, the Taoist Wang disagreed and said that it was too troublesome to bring the archaeological team with them. If there were too many people, they would be timid. Once something happened, it would be too late to protect them. If there was time to catch the zombies, Xiao Yu agreed very much. Finally, everyone came to the conclusion that they would clean up the unclean things in the ancient tomb first, and then the archaeological team members would go in.
"Okay, then that's the decision. Let the Taoist priests come in and clean up the zombies tomorrow and the archaeological team will rest, but remember not to disturb the villagers," Police Officer Sun ordered domineeringly.
Xiao Yu glanced at the Taoist Master Wang, but found that the other party was also looking at him and Old Man Li, and immediately showed a friendly smile, but the Taoist Master Wang snorted coldly and said, "I don't agree. Taoists rely on their own abilities. If they go in together, who will be the credit? So I will go in tomorrow morning and wait for me to come out, they will go in."
As soon as Master Wang finished speaking, Professor Chen frowned and said, "If this is the case, it's okay, but we need to follow us. After all, we have to go in advance to explore the road, otherwise you all leave. If we are going in, wouldn't we have a dark look?"
When Wang Dao heard this, he immediately said unhappily, "What, Professor Chen is afraid that I will take the lead?"
Xiao Yu had this idea, but he did not reveal it. He just saw how Professor Chen explained it.
"Haha, don't get it wrong. The things in this ancient tomb are owned by the state, and we cannot take a single item in our private area. Even the zombies are cultural relics, so I hope everyone will not be damaged."
"No matter who I am in the antique rules, I hope you understand our rules. If this zombie is caught, the 100,000 yuan of hard work will not be reduced." After saying that, Master Wang also glanced at Xiao Yu, as if he was demonstrating to Xiao Yu.
When Xiao Yu heard that Taoist Wang had caught 100,000 yuan in zombies, but he was only 50,000 yuan, he felt a little unbalanced, but he still smiled and said, "The price doesn't matter. We Taoists should do the truth for heaven. If we catch zombies, we will talk about it. No matter how much money is, it will be useless if we can't get out of the ancient tomb."
"Haha, that's the best. I didn't expect that Dao Zheng Xiao was not old, but his ideological level was so high. It seemed that a famous teacher produced a high disciple," Professor Chen said with a smile.
Professor Chen is worthy of being a well-educated person. This sentence not only praised Xiao Yu, but also feared that Old Man Li would flatter him. He also secretly said that Master Wang’s master did not teach him well. It can be said that he beat three birds with one stone. This move is really poisonous.
Xiao Yu smiled and didn't say anything, but thought to himself, "100,000 yuan is really cruel, and you are only worth the slightest, so you really dare to speak. I hope you can walk out of the tomb safely."
"Master Wang went to explore the tomb yesterday. I wonder if I could tell us the situation inside?"Master Bai said at this time.
Everyone was also very interested in Master Bai's words. Everyone looked at Master Wang, and Master Wang did not refuse at this time. He immediately said, "According to our investigation yesterday, this tomb should be a tomb of the Qing Dynasty. The zombies have not been formed for a long time. There is one zombie inside, which should be a general. As for the level of this general, we did not open the coffin, nor did we figure it out. After entering the ancient tomb tomorrow, we will naturally see the truth."
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Xiao Yu. At this time, Officer Sun suddenly looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Master Xiao, the zombie you caught in Shimo Village last time, you said it also came out of the ancient tomb. What is the relationship between that zombie and the general mentioned by Taoist Wang?"
In the eyes of Officer Sun, Xiao Yu's master should be a master, and Xiao Yu's ability is not low, so Officer Sun is still optimistic about the two masters and apprentices of Xiao Yu. After all, he passed by Xiao Yu to catch ghosts with his own eyes! As for Taoist Master Wang, although Professor Chen invited him, he was arrogant, which made Officer Sun and Professor Chen a little dissatisfied. However, since everyone has been invited, it is not easy to drive him back.
Xiao Yu didn't expect that Officer Sun would suddenly tell the matter. At this time, when Professor Chen and those students heard that Xiao Yu had caught the zombies, they couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu in surprise, as if some students were preparing to listen to the teacher telling stories.
"I'll go, it's true, there are really zombies." The yellow-haired young man looked at Officer Sun in disbelief.
"Yes, before something happened in this ancient tomb, we discovered a murder case in Shimo Village. It was Taoist Master Xiao who made ghosts and zombies, which made our case progress," Police Officer Sun said without any hesitation.
"Female ghost, zombie?" The yellow-haired man seemed to have suddenly become interested, and immediately moved to Xiao Yu and said, "Little Taoist Master, tell me, what female ghost, is it beautiful or not beautiful, is it big or big, and is it upright on its butt?"
Xiao Yu looked at the yellow-haired young man and smiled and said, "It's very beautiful..."
"Liu Xiaogang, what are you doing? They are still children. What are you talking about?" A woman in the archaeological team couldn't help but smile.
"Xiaogang, come back soon. Now we are talking about things. What do you think like this?" Professor Chen scolded unhappily.
The yellow-haired man ignored the few people and pushed Xiao Yu and said, "Little Taoist Master, don't leave after the meeting later. I have something to tell you."
