Chapter 665 The young widow who inherited her dead husband’s estate (5)
The young widow who inherited her dead husband's estate (Fifteen)
Song Ning does what he says.
He checked the Taoist temple that Dong Dafu mentioned, and found that it was indeed in Gu County, and in fact it was only about 30 kilometers away from the county he usually went to, so it was not far.
"This way, I can be back in half a day, and it won't delay the work in the fields."
Song Ning calculated and felt that there was no big problem.
The next day he got up early and finished his work in the fields before driving out on his tricycle.
That's right, Song Ning had specially checked and found that a tricycle was more than enough to go there. He loved driving this tricycle very much now. It was powerful, practical, cheap and durable. There was nothing wrong with it except that it could not shelter from wind and rain.
He got on his bike and rode away, not noticing that the previous entanglement immediately dissipated as he left the area.
When he was far away, a human figure vaguely condensed beside the field.
Lance felt a little helpless, but also a little happy.
He deliberately let Song Ning realize that something was wrong, but he really didn't expect Ningning to choose to worship in the Taoist temple.
He was not worried that Song Ning would really ask for some talisman to come back and hurt him. His current state was caused by a transaction with the will of the world, and it was not what Dong Dafu and Song Ning thought.
However, the incense in Song Ning's hand was indeed beneficial to his recovery, and high-quality incense was actually like a better medium. The energy contained in it could help him solidify his body faster.
Essentially, what Lance absorbed was still spiritual energy, but because he no longer had a body, he needed a medium to achieve this goal.
The Taoist temple was not too far away, and Song Ning arrived quickly while driving his tricycle and enjoying the countryside scenery along the way.
Before he even walked in, he felt what Dong Dafu meant by "this Taoist temple is famous".
It took him a long time to find a parking space for his tricycle. After getting off the tricycle, he saw various small stalls on both sides of the road.
From snacks to drinks to toys, Song Ning could even see people making sugar figures and sugar paintings, but the most numerous were those selling incense.
There was a stall with a large mat, which was filled with boxes. There were all kinds of incense of all sizes, which really opened Song Ning's eyes.
He saw a lot of people gathered there buying things, and suddenly wanted to go up and buy some as well.
An old lady with a kind face nearby grabbed his arm. Song Ning turned around, not knowing why. The old lady glared at the incense sellers before trying to persuade Song Ning.
"Don't believe those shady people. The incense they sell is just for show. It's not good stuff and it's very expensive. If you want to burn incense, go to the Taoist temple and find the Taoist priests inside. They make their own incense. These incense are incomparable. The Taoist priests make incense just for homework and they don't sell it for a high price. Don't be fooled by them."
After hearing this, Song Ning hurriedly thanked her. He thought for a while and helped the old lady carry things for a while. After her family came to pick her up, he avoided the vendors who asked him to buy incense and went straight into the Taoist temple.
This Taoist temple does not have a plaque. It is said that it had a tradition in the past. Later, the master of the temple suddenly disappeared one day and only a few disciples were left. The disciples thought they were not good enough in Taoism and took down the plaque.
As a result, it gained more recognition from fellow villagers, who would come to burn incense and pray from time to time. Many villagers said that their wishes would almost always come true after they came here, whether they wanted to pray for academic success, good marriage, or children. This Taoist temple became more and more famous under the name of Wuming Temple, and more and more people from other places came to worship.
Song Ning found it strange and followed the crowd in. Sure enough, he found a young Taoist priest setting up a very simple stall to sell incense.
He went up to ask about the price, and the young Taoist priest gave him a very affordable price, which was more than three to five times cheaper than those at the door.
Song Ning picked up the incense and smelled it, a strong scent of sandalwood.
And I don’t know if it’s because he smelled the fragrances at home too many times and made a comparison, but when he smelled this fragrance, he suddenly felt that the fragrances at home were so inferior. No wonder he bought a lot of them at such a low price.
However, the price of this incense is not expensive. Song Ning thought that since it was a rare trip and it was not expensive, he simply paid for the 500 yuan one.
The young Taoist's eyes popped out when he heard this. "Five, five hundred?"
He stammered to persuade Song Ning, "Five hundred is too much, it doesn't take that much to burn incense."
Song Ning paused as he took out his phone to pay the bill, then explained with a smile.
"No, I have an incense table at home and burn incense every day. I saw that your incense was very good, so I bought some more to use at home."
The young Taoist priest finally felt relieved and smiled with two dimples.
"That's no problem. Today's incense is so good that I didn't make it. If you buy so much, I can give you some as well."
He spoke very honestly and really gave Song Ning a lot of credit.
When he learned that Song Ning planned to go in and worship first, the little Taoist priest said that he could leave the things with him first and come out to get them after the worship.
Song Ning thought so too, so he thanked him and took a handful of incense and went in.
The Taoist temple was not small, so the Three Pure Ones were naturally worshipped there. Song Ning didn't quite understand, so he just followed the crowd and did all the worship except for the one for having a child.
Then he found out that there was an old Taoist priest not far from where the young Taoist priest was selling incense and he could ask for divination there. Thinking about the strange things that had happened to him, Song Ning came over to ask for a divination.
The old Taoist priest took twenty dollars from him, and after looking at the fortune slip, he exclaimed.
Song Ning didn't know why, but he felt a little nervous.
The old Taoist priest looked at him, then looked at the lot, a little puzzled.
"Your lot is the best. It looks like you will be safe and successful from now on. But this lot is a phoenix lot. How could a man like you draw it? It's really strange."
He looked at it again and again, and felt that it might be because his practice was not good enough, so he gave Song Ning twenty points.
Song Ning was even more puzzled than the Taoist priest. Is it possible to get a refund for drawing lots these days?
And what is the Phoenix Lot? Is it something only girls can draw?
Did he get a weird draw?
But thinking about what the old Taoist priest said about him being safe and sound, Song Ning felt that the phoenix fortune stick didn't matter anymore.
Anyway, it's good enough as long as he is safe. As for rapid advancement, Song Ning doesn't care too much about it.
He has now returned to the countryside to farm, so why would he care about his rapid rise to prominence?
After politely thanking the old Taoist priest, Song Ning turned back to the young Taoist priest to get the remaining incense. He then asked if there were any amulets there, asked for two, and drove his tricycle back home.
When he arrived at the county, he went to the owner of the agricultural and sideline product store to buy some feed. When the owner saw the incense he bought and heard that he bought it from the young Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, he called him an expert.
Song Ning didn't explain much and returned to the yard with the things.
A breeze blew by, Song Ning was stunned for a moment, and that feeling came back again.
He subconsciously looked around, and for some reason his eyes fell on the box of incense.
Since you bought a new incense, why not try a new one for your "husband"?
Just think of it as a change of taste, he thought.
