Chapter 52: The clown is me?
Everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction of the commotion.
But it was Zhang Shilang who walked out of the Chenghuang Temple with two guards and a personal attendant and walked towards them.
Zhang Shilang didn't put on an official role, and he worked hard for the night watchman all the way.
For the night watchmen of Luocheng Town Yaosi, Zhang Shilang is probably the highest-ranking official they have ever seen in their life.
Even if they have returned home, in their eyes, they are still unattainable officials.
Now the unattainable Zhang Shilang is working hard for them, which makes the night watchman very excited, and at the same time a little proud: Even the waiter thanked me, I can boast this awesomeness for a lifetime!
So, the night watchman sitting on the ground resting quickly got up, and the night watchman who was standing hurriedly stretched out his chest and stomach, all wanting to be seen by Zhang Shilang at his most spiritual side.
If you get into Zhang Shilang's eyes and say a few good words in front of Lord Baihu, wouldn't you be about to take off?
Here, Qin Shaoyou saw Shilang Zhang approaching and asked his subordinates, "Where's Shilang Zhang's grandson?"
"I'm holding it." Liao Lishi replied, and raised the dog in his arms so that Qin Shaoyou could see it.
"Is it this dog?" Qin Shaoyou asked in a low voice, afraid of making a mistake.
"It's it, I've been holding it all the time, I can't go wrong." Liao Lishi assured, and almost patted his chest.
Only then did Qin Shaoyou feel relieved, and said 'very good'.
Su Tingyu whispered, "Why is this Shilang Zhang coming to find his grandson now? He's not worried at all?"
Zhu Xiucai helped Zhang Shilang to say a fair word: "This is Zhang Shilang's grandson, how could he not be worried? But at this time, he can only deal with the affairs of the Black Lotus Sect first. , and then deal with private matters."
Monk Ma added: "And Zhang Shilang's grandson has our protection, what else does he have to worry about?"
Qin Shaoyou interrupted their discussion: "Don't talk about it, Shi Lang will be here soon."
Zhu Xiucai and Monk Ma quickly shut up, and Su Tingyu stopped talking.
Zhang Shilang quickly approached, and when he saw the dog in Liao Lishi's arms, he was obviously trembling, wanting to admit it, but was afraid of admitting his mistake.
Taking a deep breath and calming down, Zhang Shilang bowed to Qin Shaoyou and said, "Qin Chatou... No, I should call you Qin Xiaoqi. I have already heard Xue Baihu say that this time the case can be solved, you should be top priority."
Qin Shaoyou knew that this was his brother-in-law deliberately showing his merit in front of Zhang Shilang.
Good brother-in-law!
He gave Xue Qingshan a thumbs up in his heart, and decided that after returning home, he must say a few good words to brother-in-law in front of the third sister, and see if he can help brother-in-law to apply for more pocket money.
At the same time, he returned the salute and said, "Master Xue is wrong, but I don't dare to take credit. This case can be solved because of the concerted efforts of everyone from the top and bottom of my Luocheng Town Demon Division, and it's even more because Zhang Shilang cooperated properly."
Shi Lang waved his hand.
He has been an official for so many years, what kind of flattery has he not heard of? Qin Shaoyou's business touts are really not new in his eyes.
He was not in the mood to continue being polite. He pointed to the dog Liao Lishi was holding, and asked in a trembling voice, "Qin Xiaoqi, my grandson, but... but this dog?"
"Exactly." Qin Shaoyou turned sideways and asked Liao Lishi to hand over the dog to Zhang Shilang.
Zhang Shilang held the dog, feeling both excited and sad.
Excited because he finally found his good grandson, and sad because his good grandson was turned into a dog by a demon.
The dog was sleeping, but after being held by Zhang Shilang in his arms, he suddenly woke up. When he saw that the person holding him was Zhang Shilang, he was immediately excited. He wanted to speak, but he could only make a bark.
"My poor grandson..."
Zhang Shilang burst into tears and cried while hugging the dog.
At this moment, he is no longer an official servant, nor a country gentleman, but a grandfather who loves his grandson.
The dog was also whimpering and crying.
Zhang Shilang's self-control is very strong. After crying a few times, he held it back. While rubbing the dog's head for comfort, he asked Su Jianqing and Su Tingyu: "Excuse me, two Taoist priests, these have been turned into magic tricks. The poor child of the dog, can you change back?"
Su Jianqing replied, "The two of us don't have enough cultivation, and we don't have the ability to change them back, so we can only bring them back to the Jade Emperor View, and ask the teachers to take action, maybe we can break the evil magic on them."
When Shi Lang heard this, he handed the dog to his side and bowed deeply to Su Jianqing and Su Tingyu.
"To all the Taoist priests who have worked hard at the Jade Emperor Temple, I am here on behalf of the elders and villagers in Mianyuan County. I would like to thank you in advance."
Immediately afterwards, he instructed himself: "Wenliang, you go to the Jade Emperor Temple with the two Taoist priests. Apart from taking care of the young master, you must obey the orders of the two Taoist priests."
"Yes." Zhang Wenliang, who was holding the dog, bowed to take orders.
Zhang Shilang thanked Qin Shaoyou, Zhu Xiucai and others again.
Thank you for saving their grandsons and these children in Mianyuan County.
Then he will say goodbye: "Sun magistrate's secret thief has been arrested, and several other officials involved in the case have also been arrested in the county office. Now the whole county office and even the entire Mianyuan County are panicked, so I have to go to the county office. Temporary work on behalf of Anmin... My grandson, and these poor children in Mianyuan County, please take care of you!"
Having said that, he bowed deeply again.
Everyone hurriedly returned their greetings.
Zhang Shilang finally hugged his grandson who turned into a dog, patted his dog's head, reluctantly left the Chenghuang Temple under the protection of two guards, and rushed to the county office on horseback.
Watching Shilang Zhang leave, Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others were secretly excited, and the night watchman on the side even cast an envious look at them.
Although Zhang Shilang never said how to repay them, everyone knew that Qin Shaoyou and the others were remembered by Zhang Shilang.
This life-saving grace, Shilang Zhang will definitely repay!
Zhu Xiucai and Monk Ma thought that they could be promoted and get rich in the future, but Qin Shaoyou was thinking, with Zhang Shilang's relationship, the so-called noble person who values himself, will he be a little bit more jealous when he wants to hide himself?
But after thinking about it, he still felt that the noble person would probably not be affected.
After all, he is only a small person, no matter his strength or status is very low, even if Zhang Shilang owes a love, it is not enough to make the nobles cast their arms.
"You still have to improve your strength!" Qin Shaoyou secretly said, "Only if you are strong enough, can you survive in this **** world, and you can deal with it calmly whether you are facing a ghost attack or a noble person's plot..."
Thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou suddenly turned his head and looked at the monk Ma and the sisters of the Su family beside him, his eyes bright and fiery.
"Sir, you...what do you want to do?" Monk Ma was very nervous.
The Su sisters were also a little scared.
Su Jianqing immediately stood in front of her sister and made a seal in her hand. As long as Qin Shaoyou dared to mess around, she would cast a spell and let Qin Shaoyou taste the taste of beating chickens and eggs.
But Qin Shaoyou didn't mess with them, but grabbed Monk Ma's hand tightly.
Zhu Xiucai and others, who were watching the lively beside him, were all stunned.
Putting the smooth little hands of the Su sisters without grasping, grasping the rough hands of the monk Ma... What kind of strange hobby is this, my lord?
Before they could use their imaginations to guess, Qin Shaoyou opened his mouth: "Monk, I think the Buddhist supernatural power you used before is very powerful, that is the supernatural power that glows hard all over your body after you have completed the seal and recited the mantra, can you teach me? I?"
Although it is a bit presumptuous to say this, Qin Shaoyou is shameless in order to learn life-saving tricks.
Monk Ma was grabbed by his hand and was a little confused, but he still replied: "Your Excellency is talking about the Vajra Armor Seal? If you want to learn, of course I can teach it, but I can't teach it now..."
"why?"
"Because you have to find a temple with the Dharma image of Veduo Bodhisattva, learn from the Dharma image, and whether you can learn it in the end depends on your own good fortune."
"The dharma of Veduo Bodhisattva?"
Qin Shaoyou frowned slightly.
Here in Mianyuan County, it seems that there is no temple dedicated to Veduo Bodhisattva.
"Then you can teach me when you return to Luocheng. I remember that in Luocheng, there seems to be a temple dedicated to Veduo Bodhisattva."
"No problem." Monk Ma clasped his hands together, "Sir, you have a predestined relationship with the Buddha, and you have the root of great wisdom, so you should be able to learn the Vajra Armor Seal."
"Lend your auspicious words." Qin Shaoyou thanked him repeatedly.
In my heart, I thought: As long as I can learn that magical power and recognize my fate with the Buddha, as long as I don't let me become a monk...
After making an agreement with Monk Ma, Qin Shaoyou said to the Su family sisters again, "Two Taoists, can you teach me some magic spells? I'll pay the tuition."
Su Jianqing was a little confused: "You are staring at us so directly, just want us to teach you spells and Taoism?"
"Yes." Qin Shaoyou nodded, "Of course, if you are willing to teach more, I would be very happy to learn."
Su Tingyu shook her head: "You just need to practice martial arts well. What kind of spells and Taoism do you learn? Haven't you heard the saying that greed can't chew too much?"
Qin Shaoyou explained: "I want to learn one more skill, so as to avoid encountering black lotus sacred fire and other sorcery in the future, and I can't resist it. Just like today, if you hadn't been in time Let's take action, those of us, I'm afraid we will all be burned to death by the evil fire."
Su Jianqing complained, "I can't resist it because you are too weak!"
Qin Shaoyou: ? ? The clown is me? !
Fortunately, Su Jianqing not only stabbed the knife, but also gave a reason: "When you step into the sixth rank of Wufu, you will be able to resist sorcery. The Xue Baihu of your Demon Suppression Division is Wufu Liu. Therefore, the evil fire of the Black Lotus Sect has not been able to get close to him."
Su Tingyu wanted to be more gentle, but only persuaded: "You can learn some magical powers from the monk. His magical powers are the way of warrior monks, and they are of the same origin as warriors, so learning them will not have negative effects. But you have to learn Taoism, Or other Buddhist supernatural powers, it would be difficult, and it would even drag down your own cultivation progress..."
After listening to the introductions of the two sisters, Qin Shaoyou could only temporarily dispel the idea of learning Taoism, lest it really drag down the martial arts practice, but the gains outweigh the losses.
At the same time, he also set a new goal for himself, that is, to quickly rise to the sixth rank of martial arts, to cultivate the Astral Qi, and to increase a guarantee for himself to survive in this world.
While everyone was talking, the night watchman grabbed all the wild dogs in Mianyuan County, packed them in cages, and put them on carriages one by one.
Xue Qingshan, who has been busy with arresting work, showed up at this time, and asked the two sisters of the Su family to return to the Jade Emperor View with the dog group immediately, so as to help them become human as soon as possible, so as not to delay the change for a long time.
Xue Qingshan also arranged for a team of night watchmen to **** him along the way.
Qin Shaoyou and the others were also in the **** team.
"Let's swim less, swim less, I can only help you get to this point. What happens next depends on your own ability..."
