Chapter 361 It's human nature
Ma Mansion.
Tan Wenjie went to find Ma Wenjie.
"The evil monk has been killed? Thank you very much! If Qiao'er knew about this, she would surely rest in peace."
"I have sent people to inquire about the information. There are more than twenty golden Buddhas within a hundred miles. They can all be delivered here in three days at most." Ma Wenjie took the initiative to mention the search for the golden Buddha.
"Send them all over?" Zhiqiu Yiye understood every word but couldn't comprehend the whole thing together.
"I arranged for people to rebuild those temples, donated incense money, and used larger gold bars to cast new golden Buddhas for them. Of course, they will scramble to send them over." Ma Wenjie smiled.
"hiss--"
Rich people are so arrogant!
"I have prepared a banquet for all the immortals to welcome you. Please come and enjoy the feast."
At the banquet, several people ate and drank with hearty mouthfuls, especially Ning Caichen, who hadn't eaten anything good for nearly half a year, and the last time he ate meat was because of his last meal before execution.
Now he eats voraciously and beats his chest because of choking. Once he has drunk the wine, he will immediately start eating voraciously again.
After the banquet, several people talked about the preparations to deal with the Black Mountain Demon, mostly chatting.
The night is getting darker.
When Ma Wenjie came back after finishing his work, he found that Tan Wenjie had made a charcoal fire and was roasting a chicken on a fork.
The magical roosters that had helped the Ma family exorcise demons before lined up in a long snake formation, looking up at the roasted chicken.
"What is Master Tan doing?"
"Killing the chicken to scare the others." Yan Chixia was very happy to see this.
Giving chickens a lesson is a rare thing in the world, and what’s even stranger is that those big roosters really understand it.
Tan Wenjie's voice came: "I must teach you a lesson. Next time when there is danger, let me, the boss, run first, otherwise this chicken will be your fate!"
The chickens stood at attention.
State your position firmly.
"..."
"Haha, he is worthy of being called the Immortal. The divine chicken he raises really understands human nature."
……
Fu Tianchou and his companions were accompanied by Zuo Qianhu all the way, and they encountered no danger on the road. They traveled day and night, and finally returned to the capital with their hips and buttocks bleeding.
After returning to the capital, I found out through a little inquiry that the court was in chaos.
"Lord Fu, what should we do?" asked Captain Zuo.
He is not good at thinking, but he asks questions.
It’s never wrong to listen to smart people.
"We want to see the emperor!" Fu Tianchou said thoughtfully, "We must expose the demons, but we need to take a long-term view. We don't know how many demons there are. We need to eradicate them once and for all!"
"It would be great if Hero Tan could come back with us." Fu Yuechi said in a low voice.
Fu Tianchou glared: "How can we let outsiders interfere in the affairs of the court!"
Pu Du Ci Hang, who caused the current chaotic situation, is a person from outside the world. Taoists and monks are too dangerous. What if the emperor relies on them? The Protector of the Country Fazhang changed from a monk to a Taoist priest, and there is no change.
Fu Tianchou added: "Chickens can catch centipedes. We'll know once we try it with a chicken."
"Good idea!" Captain Zuo clapped his hands.
It’s good to have an external brain, it only has the responsibility of obeying orders.
The centipede demon is cunning and secretly replaces one thing with another, but there is no fool who can have a seat in the court.
The other party took many actions that were inconsistent with their own positioning, and the rest of the people had already quietly united.
So after Fu Tianchou came to him and explained the reason, he quickly assembled a cooperative team in a short period of time.
Without the Protector of the Nation, the little centipede monsters were only concerned with enjoying themselves every day and never thought about guarding against Fu Tianchou and others. Naturally, no one stopped them, allowing Fu Tianchou to successfully meet the emperor.
Also sent to see the emperor were officials who they had captured and confirmed to be monsters.
Next step, catch the monster with a chicken.
……
The emperor suddenly ordered to raise chickens in the harem.
Hundreds of majestic roosters walked in the palace, shaking their tail feathers.
The palace maids and eunuchs were puzzled and only complained in their hearts that they would have to do much more work in the future and would have to shovel chicken manure.
For several days, the harem was peaceful, except that a few roosters went missing.
No one paid attention at first, until a young eunuch accidentally saw the corpse of a rooster that had been torn into pieces but still had feathers stuck to it.
The stench is overwhelming.
The emperor frowned and looked at Fu Tianchou and Zuo Qianhu.
"It must be the work of a demon!" Captain Zuo affirmed.
After returning to Beijing, I waited for many days, but there was no news about killing the monster. Today, I found out that the big rooster raised at home was useless.
"I only thought that one thing can defeat another, but I forgot that there are mice in the world that dare to eat cats when they grow up." Fu Tianchou knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, please summon a strange man. The magic chicken he raises will definitely kill centipedes."
……
Ma Mansion.
Tan Wenjie just went out and had a chance encounter with the bird that Xiaoxue turned into. When he came back, he saw Zhiqiu Yiye studying fingernails. He even put them in his mouth and used his teeth to correct the parts he was not satisfied with.
As expected of a sorcerer who casts spells with saliva, he is not fussy about details.
But why do you take off your shoes and socks? Maybe you need to trim your toenails too.
Hey, stay away from him.
As soon as Tan Wenjie entered the room, he saw Ning Caichen suddenly close the book and stand up in panic.
"Tan...Brother Tan, you're back?"
"Ok?"
Tan Wenjie's nose twitched slightly, and then he smiled knowingly.
"It's human nature, don't be embarrassed."
"Brother Tan, this is not human nature. Wait, what do you think it is?" Ning Caichen cut off his beard and finally could perform blushing. "I didn't!" "Yeah, I believe you!"
"I really didn't!" Ning Caichen wanted to cry but had no tears.
Don't say you believe with a look of disbelief, as this will cause misunderstanding.
"Then what are you looking at?"
Ning Caichen dodged for a moment, then thought of something and moved forward to block it.
"Achen, you're not nice enough!" Tan Wenjie was very disappointed.
He would selflessly share any collector's edition of banned books with Ning Caichen, but he never expected that the other party would keep them all to himself.
"You can read it if you want." Ning Caichen gritted his teeth and took out a letter. "This is a letter from the second daughter of the Fu family. She said in the letter that the eldest daughter of the Fu family is going to get married, and the one she is going to marry is Ma Wenjie!"
"show me."
He took the letter and scanned it quickly.
The content of the letter was very awkward. The awkward part was Fu Yuechi, who was clearly asking him to elope with Fu Qingfeng.
What a deep sisterly love.
He is a very soft-hearted person and he can't stand the separation between relatives.
You agreed not to separate and to stay together forever, so he has to sacrifice himself for the sake of the two sisters.
"Aren't you angry?"
"Why am I angry?" Tan Wenjie wondered.
He and Fu Tianchou had not met often, but the other party was a court minister and was prejudiced against outsiders. Tan Wenjie once again flirted with his two daughters, so it was understandable that he cut his losses in time and married his daughters off.
But again, Tan Wenjie is not an ordinary yellow-haired man. He directly pried the person away and traveled around the world with her. Fu Laodeng was also helpless.
"Chang Immortal!"
Ma Wenjie came running in breathlessly, startling Zhiqiu Yiye who was trying to cut her toenails outside.
"I will never marry the eldest daughter of the Fu family, please rest assured!"
Tan Wenjie looked at Ning Caichen and Zhiqiu Yiye. He could be sure that someone was telling a story again.
"It's him!" X2
The two pointed at each other.
"It's not me!" X2
Wave your hands at the same time.
"It's Shier!" X2
The consensus is that whoever is not present will take the blame.
Ma Wenjie shook his head and said, "Brother Tan, it turns out that Miss Fu looks the same as Miss Xiaoqian. How could I possibly steal her away? Don't worry, I will cancel the engagement."
"Ning Caichen?"
Tan Wenjie looked at a scholar who was trying to run away with his neck shrunk.
Ning Caichen, who had always been called "Achen", suddenly felt his neck tighten when his full name was called.
"Master, Master Tan! A great man has come outside! He has brought an imperial decree with him!"
A servant came running in and saved Ning Caichen's life.
"Imperial edict, you go quickly, leave this to us." Tan Wenjie waved his hand and let Mr. Ma solve it himself.
He wanted to stay and discuss more important matters with Ning Caichen.
It can be seen that Achen doesn’t quite understand.
But it doesn’t matter, Brother Jie understands.
The servant said, "Master, that lord said the imperial edict is for you."
"I?"
When I got outside, I unexpectedly saw an acquaintance.
"Oh, Captain Zuo?" Tan Wenjie greeted him warmly.
Captain Zuo was somewhat flattered.
"Taoist Priest!"
"Captain Zuo, how are you after returning to Beijing? Has Lord Fu been rehabilitated?"
"Naturally, Master Fu has been rehabilitated and has gone one step further."
"That's good." Tan Wenjie nodded with satisfaction.
"Master, I..."
"By the way, how did you know I was staying at the Ma Mansion?"
"I asked around along the way to find me here." Captain Zuo explained with a smile, "Before, I was worried that you, Taoist priest, had the ability to travel a thousand miles in a day, so I just wanted to try my luck here. But I happened to hear that there was a magical chicken in the Ma Mansion. It crows at sunrise, and chickens, dogs and livestock dare not compete with it. It crows at night and can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters. I thought it must be related to you, Taoist priest, so I asked around and came here."
You, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, can also lie. Fu Yuechi’s letter can be sent directly to me, and it’s no secret that he lives in the Ma family.
The flattery is so stiff.
Considering that Zuo Qianhu is an honest man, just listen to him reluctantly.
"I see." Tan Wenjie nodded, "Then you must stay and have a good drink. We parted in a hurry last time. I like drinking and chatting with masters the most."
Zuo Qianhu felt a sense of pride in his heart, but he soon realized something was wrong.
I came here to invite Tan Wenjie to come to Beijing to catch monsters, but we chatted for a long time without saying a word about business.
"Master, I came here with an imperial decree, and I want you to come to the capital to subdue the demon."
There was no response after he finished speaking, and Zuo Qianhu became anxious.
"Taoist Priest..."
"It is my duty to subdue demons and monsters. I would have agreed even if you didn't bring an imperial decree."
Hearing him say this, Zuo Qianhu breathed a sigh of relief.
He actually thought there would be many twists and turns this time.
Only Ning Caichen remembered the letter.
Hiss, Brother Tan...you are going to do something, this is so exciting.
