I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 59 The Great and Selfless One!

After listening to his condition, the Taoist immediately agreed without hesitation: "No problem! With Erlang's condition, the old Taoist can make the decision!"

In his view, this is not a condition at all.

Now is the slack season, and the government's recruitment of labor is nothing more than repairing bridges and roads, digging ditches to connect rivers, and other trivial matters.

There are not many in Duoyanglin Village, and there are not many without them.

Moreover, his two conditions were completely for Yang Lincun, and he did not seek his own personal gain at all.

You know, the things he handed over to the government are priceless, but only these two conditions are mentioned.

From this point of view alone, this handsome young man is definitely a selfless person!

It's just that he doesn't know that Guo Yi still has another task on his back: leading Yanglin Village to make a fortune.

Seeing that the Taoist responded so confidently, Guo Yi secretly affirmed his guess. This old Taoist is very human.

So, he added to the fire again: "Okay! Since you two agree, it should be sooner rather than later. The boy will study ink and start writing, and record the method of looking for mountains and waters that he has learned overnight!"

"Hahaha!" Monk Deyuan smiled heartily, cupped his hands and said, "Erlang really understands righteousness! Monk admires it! So, when we see the new well-drilling method tomorrow, Mr. and Lao Niubi will immediately go back to Jiangling. Discuss this matter with His Highness King Chu. Spread the new well-drilling method quickly."

"No!" The Taoist immediately got up and objected: "You old monk, wait here, and wait until tomorrow to observe the new method of digging wells, and then wait for Erlang to record the method of looking for mountains and water, and then you can take it back quickly." Gangneung.

The old Taoist then set off to return to discuss the matter with His Highness the King of Chu.Come up with a strategy for implementation as soon as possible, so as to store water as soon as possible! "

After finishing speaking, he stood up straight, bowed his hands neatly to Guo Yi and said: "Erlang is so understanding of righteousness, he will tell His Highness the King of Chu truthfully, with Quan Erlang's selfless heart!

Farewell! "

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went out, and left without delay.

When he left, Guo Yi planned to act in a full set. In front of Monk Deyuan, he said to Mr. Yang: "Grandpa, we just agreed on something. When the official document from the government comes, please inform the old Lin family. One sound."

"Okay!" Mr. Yang nodded without hesitation.

Although he is not ashamed of Lin Zaishan and Lin Zaishui's selfish actions, the matter that was agreed just now is related to the livelihood of two or three hundred households in the entire Yanglin Village. .

After Mr. Yang agreed, he stretched out his hand to invite Monk Deyuan: "Master Deyuan came from a long way, please stay at home overnight as usual! The east ear room in the front yard happens to be free."

"Okay!" Monk Deyuan nodded and agreed with a smile on his face: "This is exactly what I want. If that's the case, then don't bother me!"

After finishing speaking, he got up and followed Mr. Yang to go out.

Guo Yi, on the other hand, went to the yard and poked out a few branches, put them into the stove and smoldered them, planning to make some charcoal pens.

Because the brush is too soft, it is not conducive to fast writing.

.........

When the Taoist returned to Jiangling City on horseback, it was already dark and the city gates were closed.

Then he took out his waist card, called to open the city gate, and galloped into the city without stopping.

When they came to the Prince Chu's Mansion in Beicheng, they slapped the copper ring on the lion's mouth.

The door creaked, opened the side door, poked his head out, and saw the person coming clearly through the lantern hanging under the eaves.

Hastily stepped out, bowed and saluted, "I've seen the Seventeenth Master!"

"Mm!" The Taoist responded, then quickly walked in, and asked casually, "Is your prince in the mansion?"

"Go back to the Seventeenth Lord, my prince is having a banquet. Mr. Qingzhi brought his female disciples to visit, and the prince left them for dinner."

When the Taoist heard the words, he couldn't help but pause, and then asked again: "Oh? Mr. Qingzhi is here? What's the matter?"

"This... I don't know how small!" Menzi responded honestly with his head bowed.

Soon, Menzi led the Taoist to the middle courtyard in a detour, handed over to the steward of the middle courtyard, and went to the banquet hall in the east wing of the middle courtyard.

"Report to the prince, the Seventeenth Lord is here!"

As soon as his words fell, the Taoist couldn't wait to enter the banquet hall.

I saw that there was a carved solid wood round table in the center of the living room, and seven or eight dishes on the table were exuding a lingering aroma.

There were four people sitting around the round table. Sitting opposite the door was the young and handsome King of Chu, Guo Yunzhe, who was dressed in luxurious clothes; next to him was the gray-haired, somewhat wild and unruly scholar Xue Qingzhi in a black Taoist robe;

And Xue Qingzhi's left hand side is his registered female disciple, Lu Zixi, who is wearing an emerald green double-breasted skirt and has a striking appearance.

The young man sitting behind the door was Lu Fangzhi who was despised and despised by everyone in Jiangling City recently.

Several people were eating and talking, when they heard the report from the manager outside, they all turned their heads and looked out at the same time.

Just then, a dusty Taoist came in with a red face.

Several people immediately put their chopsticks down and stood up. The great Confucian Xue Qingzhi laughed and bowed his hands in salute: "Master Xianyun, but it's been a long time!"

And Lu Zixi, who was next to him, took two steps back, retracted his skirt and bowed his body slightly, and gave a blessing: "Little girl Lu Zixi, I have met Taoist Xianyun!"

She had overheard her teacher talking about this Taoist Priest Xianyun, and with some rumors, she could probably guess the identity of this Taoist Priest, but she never mentioned it to outsiders.

The Taoist stroked his beard and laughed, and also bowed his hands in return: "Mr. Qingzhi, you are a distinguished guest!"

"Where is there! This old man is nothing more than a countryman, how can there be any precious words?" This Mr. Qingzhi is very humble.

And the King of Chu also interjected at this time: "Why are you back at this time? You are still so happy, is there anything good?"

Hearing his question, the Taoist immediately thought of the business, quickly pulled up the sleeve of the king of Chu, and said impatiently: "Let's go, let's talk in your study!"

Er... The king of Chu was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "Mr. Qingzhi is still here! My master is leaving the table at this time, but it is too rude!"

When the Taoist heard this, he couldn't help but stop.

And Xue Qingzhi smiled and said: "The Taoist priest has some important confidential matter that needs to be avoided by the old man? Then the old man will leave now!"

"No, no, no!" The Taoist immediately came to his senses, waved his hands again and again and said, "Mr. Qingzhi misunderstood! It's not a confidential matter, but a great good thing! There's nothing wrong with telling others, so let's say it here." .”

The maid who was serving at the side quickly moved a round stool and placed it behind the Taoist.

"Cough!" "That's right, Guo Erlang wants to hand over the new well-drilling method he invented to the government for promotion. Not only that, but also the mysterious and unpredictable method of looking at mountains and water that he has learned all his life. Record it together, and hand it over to the government for promotion!"

"What!" After hearing this, the King of Chu suddenly got up in shock, looked at the Taoist with an incredulous expression on his face, and stammered excitedly, "You, are you telling the truth?"

The things that the Taoist just said are priceless treasures.

It is enough to settle down and live, to establish a family and pass on the business.

Therefore, even though the current situation is bad and the drought continues, Taoists and monks have no intention of plundering.

Because, that is enough to make people desperately guard something.

Fortunately, that Guo Erlang understands justice and is selfless.
