Ninety: Arriving at Tongtian Temple at the beginning of the second elementary school(1/2)

Along the way, the two people galloped down the road. At this time, the sun was already setting in the west. The two people galloped for more than a hundred miles in one breath, and then they relaxed a little.

Tieniu looked at Duan Wuji and said, "Brother, you see it's already getting late. Let's find a carriage and horse shop to stay, lest we can't find a hotel as soon as we go out."

Duan Wuji nodded after hearing this. "Okay, let's take a rest early today. Maybe Pengtian can make it to the foot of Huashan Mountain."

The two of them drove forward for another ten miles and finally found a carriage and horse shop in a small town and stayed there.

The two of them had something to eat, and Duan Wuji called the waiter over.

"Man, let me ask, how far is this place from Nahua Mountain?"

The waiter smiled and said, "Well, we're almost there, there's probably more than thirty miles to go. Tomorrow you go northeast along the official road, and you'll see the high mountain soon."

Hey, sir, why are you going to Huashan? Are you visiting relatives? Or are you traveling?"

Duan Wuji laughed after hearing this and said, "We are visiting a friend. One of our friends lives at the foot of Huashan Mountain."

"Really? Then you will get there early tomorrow. Sir, you can rest. I will go to other rooms."

After saying that, the guy walked out.

Duan Wuji and Tieniu smiled upon seeing each other.

The two of them turned off the lights, sat cross-legged on the bed and started practicing. It wasn't until midnight that the two of them took off their clothes and went to bed.

The next morning, the two of them had dinner early, immediately paid for the store and continued on their way. After more than thirty miles, the two of them arrived at the foot of Huashan Mountain in less than an hour. After asking about it, they finally arrived at the northwest corner of Huashan Mountain.

Next I found the so-called Tongtian Temple.

The two men led the horses and took a look. They saw that the so-called Tongtian Temple was a few old houses located on a small earth mountain thirty or forty feet high. This Taoist temple was built on the mountain, and the main house in the north was

There are five or six rooms, three on each side of the east and west wings. The courtyard of this Taoist temple is only two to three acres, and there are several vegetables planted on one side of the courtyard.

At first glance, it looks like a self-sufficient way of life.

The courtyard of this Taoist temple is an earthen wall as high as one person, with straw drooping on the top of the wall to prevent the soil from being washed away by the rain.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Duan Wuji shouted loudly inside: "Is Master Liaochen here?"

When the old Taoist Liao Chen heard this, he immediately ran out of the house and chanted the Dharma chant when Liao Chen saw him.

"Tianliang Tianzun, you two little friends, why are you here today? Please come in quickly."

Duan Wuji and Tieniu tied their horses to two trees in the yard, and followed the dust into a room in the east wing. They saw a small Eight Immortals table outside the room, with an incense burner on the table.

There are portraits of Sanqing in front.

There are also some pots and jars in the outhouse, probably for storing food.

Taoist Master Liaochen said with a smile: "You two, please come in."

Duan Wuji and Tieniu walked into the back room and saw a small kang against the east wall of the room, with two quilts placed on the kang.

Duan Wuji and Tieniu knew that there were two people living in this house.

Duan Wuji looked at Chen and asked, "Master Liaochen, when did you come back? How many days have you been back?"

Old Taoist Liao Chen smiled and said, "I've been back for six or seven days."

"How is the family doing?"

"Well, it's good, it's good. Everything is fine. Everyone at home is in good health. Thank you for thinking about me."

"Hey, Master Liaochen, how many Taoist priests are there in your temple?"

Liao Chen smiled after hearing this.

"Look, how can there be any incense in this temple? There are only two people in this temple, me and my junior brother who depend on each other. After I came back, my junior brother went out to beg for alms.

Alas! I've been gone for five or six days, and I don't know if it will heal or not.

Sigh, it’s really worrying! There’s not much rice and noodles left in the temple, so why should we stop eating?”

Duan Wuji laughed after hearing this.

"Master Liaochen, you guys have been miserable. It doesn't matter, we can buy something to eat from the village down the mountain."

After hearing this, Liao Chen laughed and said: "Two donors, I asked you to spend money as soon as you entered the temple. How can I be so embarrassed as a poor Taoist!"

Duan Wuji laughed after hearing this: "Old Taoist Master, you're welcome, why should you worry about such trivial matters as eating and drinking?"

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Master Lochen, let's go and take us to buy some food. As the saying goes, people are like iron and rice is like steel. If you don't eat for one meal, you won't be hungry. We have just arrived. What's the situation around us?

I’m not familiar with it yet, so you can bring us back to buy some.”

After hearing this, Liao Chen stood up with a wry smile.

"In that case, let's go. I'm afraid the rice noodle shop will close if it's too late."

Duan Wuji and Tieniu led their horses and followed Master Chen down the mountain, heading straight towards a small town on the north side of the hill.

After entering the town, Liao Chen led them into a rice noodle shop.

Liao Chen chanted Dharma chants in front.

"Wuzun Tianzun, boss, how is business lately?"

The boss looked up and recognized it.

"Hey, isn't this Master Luochen? Master Luochen, how's the business of the shop doing these days? You can't sell much this day. It's a waste of time every day.

Master Liaochen, please don’t beg for alms in the shop today, go to other places for a walk, it’s not that the shop is stingy, we have lost a lot during this time, I’m really sorry.”

Okay, this shopkeeper is not polite, he will blow out the food when he walks out from the counter.

Old Taoist Liaochen saw it and smiled and said: "Boss, Pindao is not here to beg for alms today. Pindao has brought you a big customer today. Boss, you are going to make a fortune today."

Upon seeing this, Tieniu handed the horse to Duan Wuji and walked in.

"Shopkeeper, do you have good rice and noodles?"

The shopkeeper's face immediately lit up with a smile.

"Sir, what do you mean by your question? This is a small shop that has all kinds of rice, flour, grains and oils. I can't say that we have what you want, but it's not much different."

Tieniu heard this and smiled and said: "Well, first give us a thousand kilograms of white flour, a thousand kilograms of good rice, and fifty kilograms of oil. In addition, give us thirty kilograms of peanuts, and give us sesame oil."

Five kilograms, seasonings, give us half a kilogram first. Do you have any wine? If so, give us two jars first."

Okay, Tieniu really has all the goods he wants.

The shopkeeper's can of Coke went bad.

"Sir, these things cost a lot of money! Did you bring the money?"

Tieniu smiled after hearing this.

"Shopkeeper, how much do you think it is? You won't miss a penny."

The shopkeeper picked up the abacus and calculated it and said: "Well, these things should cost nineteen taels and six cents. Sir, do you have that much money?"

Tieniu smiled after hearing this, and immediately took out two ingots and ten taels of silver from his body and put them on the counter.

"Shopkeeper, here are twenty taels of silver, please give me change."

The shopkeeper took the two ingots of silver in his hand and looked at them again and again, and finally put them away with a smile.

"Sir, the shop doesn't have any loose money today. Can I give you some copper coins?"

Tieniu smiled after hearing this.

"Forget it, if you don't have any loose money, let's just owe it now. Next time we come to ask for goods, let's settle it together."

The shopkeeper was very grateful after hearing this.

The shopkeeper looked at Tieniu and said, "Sir, where can we send these things to you?"

Tieniu didn't say a word after hearing this, so the old Taoist Liaochen said proudly: "Where to send it? Of course it's to Tongtian Temple."

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper laughed and said, "Master Liaochen, now you no longer have to worry about food and drink. Master Liaochen, I wish you good luck!"

Liao Chen shook his head proudly after hearing this.

"What's the point? I've got everything I need to eat in the past six months, so what do I have to worry about?"

The owner of the rice restaurant said with a smile: "Sir, you see it's getting late. Can we deliver the goods to you tomorrow?"

Tieniu nodded after hearing this.

"Well, okay, let's send it tomorrow."

With that said, Tieniu and Liaochen retreated from the store.

Duan Wuji looked at the sky. The sun was still high at this time. Duan Wuji said to Chen: "Master Liaochen, I'm the host today. Let's have something in the restaurant. Hey, Master Liaochen, there are people in this town."

Is there a better restaurant?"

Liao Chen smiled after hearing this.

"Yes, why not? I will take you there."

With that said, Liao Chen led them to the door of a small restaurant. Duan Wuji and Tieniu tied their horses to a tree, and then led Chen into the restaurant. The waiter at the restaurant smiled and said, "Guys, you guys
