Missy, she always does not seek to make progress 2

Chapter 207

When Tie Banxian put Lao Er's body in the coffin, he was in a daze. How did he lose his head and bump into Qin Liuxi's thief ship?

He put the white silk on Guan Lao'er's face in order, while reciting the mantra of passing away silently in his heart, while tidying up the inside of the coffin.

After he had settled down, he turned around, only to see that Qin Liuxi had personally hung two white lanterns at the door of the shop, and the inscriptions written on them were dazzling and dazzling. Then he looked at the coffin shop and Guan Laoer.

That's it.

Tie Banxian sighed.

Seeing that Yu Changkong and the people around him had already set up a simple small mourning hall, Tie Banxian also lit joss sticks and prepared to do a sacrificial offering.

Someone is here.

Qin Liuxi greeted him and winked at Chen Pi, who held incense and handed it to those who came to mourn.

People who run shops on this street, or people who are familiar with Guan Laoer in the entire Shouxifang, come to offer incense to express their condolences and see him off when they hear the news.

Sifang stood at the door, and according to Qin Liuxi's instructions, handed the needle seal to ward off evil spirits and eliminate darkness to the mourners who came to mourn and take them away.

This is the rule of funerals.

Tie Banxian was preparing matters, while listening to Diao Ke's words, he also learned about Guan Laoer's situation, his family died, Qin Liuxi was just helping with the funeral, of course, the coffin shop was the reward.

Tie Banxian looked at this dilapidated coffin shop for some years. To put it bluntly, it was just a shop. It was opened in the area of ​​Shouxifang, and it did a lot of funeral business. Is it the same?

"Let's get started." Qin Liuxi said to Tie Banxian, seeing that the time was almost up.

Tie Banxian hastily put on a tattered Taoist robe, felt Qin Liuxi's disdainful eyes, his face turned hot, and he hesitated and said: "If I were rich, I wouldn't bump into you..."

It's not that you're poor, that's why you're such a magician.

Seeing that Qin Liuxi was impatient, he coughed, and began to chant sutras and worship in front of the altar, stepping on foot, burning amulets, and chanting mantras.

Qin Liuxi watched from the side, seeing that he looked good and that the steps of the scientific instrument were correct, so he sat down cross-legged.

Yu Changkong handed her a glass of water and knelt down beside her.

Qin Liuxi thanked with a smile, and said, "Why are you here?"

"You also said that meeting is fate."

Qin Liuxi glanced at the coffin, and sighed: "It's an honor for the old man to have Yu's Changkong help with the funeral."

Yu Changkong said: "The most honorable thing for him is that you are here."

Qin Liuxi giggled.

Yu Changkong didn't say any more, and sat with her, watching Tie Banxian perform the rituals, and said: "What he does is somewhat of a Taoist demeanor, not like that swindler."

"What he did was a bit undecent, but his face was upright. He didn't harm anyone and never did evil. As a sidewalker, he was fine. Moreover, there was a little sinister virtue on his forehead, although I don't know what he did. , but these are enough." Qin Liuxi said: "This fasting ceremony is fairly neat, if he is interested, I would like to invite him to be a Taoist priest in the Taoist temple."

"Did you hear Daoist Qingyuan say that there is a shortage of manpower? That's why you have the heart to recruit talents."

"He's such an idiot, he just recited two curses wrong." Qin Liuxi disliked it, and said again: "But it's true that there are not enough priests in Guanli, and it's going to be winter again. Three people, not enough."

This person is not enough, so she has to come, just thinking about it is scary and tiring.

Therefore, it is necessary to recruit sages. This Tie Banxian is not good at learning Taoism, but he also knows some Taoism. The most important thing is that he can do fasting and offering sacrifices.

Tie Banxian pinched the tactic, feeling a chill on his back, and an ominous premonition of being targeted.

Could it be that this little evil god wants to do something bad to him?
This distraction caused him to recite another incantation wrongly.

Qin Liuxi scolded: "Read carefully, don't get distracted."

Tie Banxian shrank his neck, mother, once this matter is over, he will run as far as he can, and he can't afford to provoke him, so it's time to hide!

"If the Taoist temple can't recruit, what if there are too many things?" Yu Changkong asked curiously.

"In the past, I relied on some trustees and lay Buddhists to help me. The help was mainly porridge and medicine. The rest, such as collecting land rent, I had to rely on Qingyuan to do it myself."

"Qingping Temple still has land property?"

Qin Liuxi said with a smile: "Why, do you really think that Buddhism is empty?"

Without waiting for him to reply, she said again: "It is said that the Buddhist door becomes a monk, but isn't the Buddhist door a door? It also has tiles to cover its head, and it also needs to eat, drink, and lax when entering the Buddhist door. It can't last long by relying on bigu alone. In this case , then the source of life is needed, otherwise, why do Buddhism and Daomen need incense and fragrant oil? Those are all sources to maintain the operation of Buddhism. If you want to do some great good things, you need more. "

Yu Changkong seemed to realize something, and said: "The Buddhist sect is also a common world."

"You're right if you can understand like this." Qin Liuxi smiled slightly: "No matter what kind of school, you can't escape the vulgarity, you can't get rid of this mundane world, only like him, when your life span is over, you can leave this mundane world."

Yu Changkong followed her gaze to look at the coffin.

"Qingping Temple also has its own land, because it is a great charity of Taoism. It is rented to farmers, and the interest rate is not high. In a disaster year, it does not receive a penny, and the Taoist temple has to do more good things in disaster years. This requires A lot of sesame oil money is used to buy supplies." Qin Liuxi said: "Seeing that winter is coming, Taoist temples will also start giving porridge and medicine, if you haven't left by then, you can come to help."

"it is good."

At night, Qin Liuxi did not go home, but kept watch all night, until dawn, when the city gate was opened, she took Tie Banxian and Chen Pi to carry the coffin out of the city to Yizhuang.

Tie Banxian had been busy all night, his eyelids were almost glued to sleepiness, and he had to follow Qin Liuxi to Yizhuang to cremate the old man's body. hold.

There is a collective cemetery on the back mountain of Qingpingguan. If someone like Guan Laoer who has no family behind him is found by Qingpingguan, he will be cremated and his ashes will be brought back to the cemetery for burial. There are incense and sacrifices during the New Year's festival, which can be regarded as a little kindness of Qingping Guanshi.

Of course, this is also based on the life experience of the deceased, and all evildoers will only be saved by the Qingping Temple.

As soon as the ashes were collected, the affairs of Guan Lao'er's death were considered completed. The process was simple, but it was already a great kindness, and it was a hundred times better than leaving him alone.

"Can I go?" Tie Banxian thought of running away when he saw that he had nothing to do.

Qin Liuxi glanced at him: "Where are you going?"

Tie Banxian said vigilantly: "I don't need to bother you, Master."

"Qingping temple is now recruiting Taoist priests. If you have nowhere to go, you can go to Qingping temple to make an order. On weekdays, you can help with doing some rituals, explaining hexagrams and attracting incense. There are tiles to cover your head, three meals to continue, and four seasons to have Taoist clothes. Are you so good at bluffing and deceiving?" Qin Liuxi said persuasively, "How about it, are you coming?"
