And said you're not a fairy

Chapter 50
Chen Wenqing remembered that Chen Yuan had just said that he had worshiped an expert as his teacher.

There are endless ghosts and strange things in Dayong, so monks and Taoists have a very high status in the hearts of the people, even ordinary monks and Taoists are especially respected.

Chen Wenqing couldn't help but asked: "Erlang, just now you said that you have worshiped an expert as your teacher. Could it be that you have also learned spells?"

Chen Yuan thought for a while and said, "I have learned a little."

He followed his master Lu Yan, mainly studying Taoism and the "Hunyuan Sword Classic".

As for spells, I learned a magic touch.

So I only learned a little bit, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Hearing what his younger brother Chen Yuan said, Chen Wenqing suddenly stood up. He looked at the sitting opposite him in amazement. This younger brother, who was dressed in a Taoist robe and dressed as a Taoist priest, had been gone for three years without hearing from him. It was hard to imagine that the other party With such a romantic relationship.

If this is the case, then this younger brother's achievement in becoming a Taoist priest is indeed much greater than that in studying.

"Uncle Lang, haven't you become a fairy?"

The brother and sister-in-law were also looking at Chen Yuan beside him, with a surprised expression on their faces.

"It's just a small spell, and it's still far from a fairy!"

Chen Yuan patiently explained.

After Chen Wenqing calmed down the turbulent emotions in his heart, he stopped thinking about it.

"It's good to come back, Erlang, whether you are a monk, a Taoist priest, or a student, as long as you can come back safely."

Chen Wenqing sat down again and said.

The whole family thought that this younger brother had already encountered an accident on the way of borrowing. Now that Chen Yuan can return safely, no matter what experience Chen Yuan has had in the past three years, they are all worthy of joy.

As for the things that were considered before, such as letting Chen Yuan study, gain fame, honor the lintel, and carry on the family line of the Chen family... After Chen Yuan came back alive, it became unimportant.

Because Chen Yuan was able to come back alive, it was completely a surprise.

You must know that in the three years since his younger brother disappeared, he spent a lot of effort to find this younger brother.

The reporter asked someone to look for it in person, and everything that should be done was done.

It's a pity that there is no news, as if the world has evaporated.

Because of looking for Chen Yuan, the family's business almost failed. Later, seeing that there was no hope, the family had no choice but to give up.

In this year, there are too many examples of family members traveling far away and never returning, and seeing people alive and dead.

It could be seen that the elder brother Chen Wenqing was very happy. He took Chen Yuan to drink and chat for a long time.

The two brothers drank until late at night, and drank the jug of good wine that Chen Wenqing bought during the day before giving up.

This jug of wine was almost finished by Chen Wenqing and Chen Yuan's brothers. Out of politeness, the brother and sister-in-law, except for toasting Chen Yuan with two glasses of wine at the beginning, went to work on other things after the meal.

Seeing that the dishes on the table were reheated twice by his brother and sister-in-law, his elder brother Chen Wenqing was already drunk and lay unconscious on the table.

"Your brother doesn't usually drink much."

The brother and sister-in-law, who put the child to sleep first, came over and said in embarrassment.

"I know, it's because my brother is happy when I come back, so I drank specially today."

Chen Yuan laughed.

Although he is a time traveler who only fused the memory of his original body, he can feel the kindness of this pair of brother and sister-in-law to him as a brother.

It's not like some brothers and sisters-in-law, only after they get married, in order to fight for a little property left by their parents, they deliberately treat their brothers harshly and make them fight against each other.

While talking, the brother and sister-in-law cleaned up the leftover food on the table.

Together with his brother and sister-in-law, Chen Yuan helped his elder brother Chen Wenqing back to his room to rest.

"Uncle Lang, I have tidied up your room just now, and the quilt and mattress are all made up, you just go to rest."

Then brother and sister-in-law reminded Chen Yuan.

"Brother and sister-in-law, please rest early after you have worked hard all day."

After Chen Yuan said hello, he took his leave and left.

Chen Yuan turned around and went back to the East Wing. Sure enough, the beds in the East Wing had been packed and the quilts had been made.

Chen Yuan took off his Taoist robe and lay on the bed. He found that the bedding on the bed had the smell of sunlight after being exposed to the sun.

After sleeping in the open for so many days, Chen Yuan fell asleep slowly after lying on the bed for so many days.

While he fell asleep, the "Fetal Breath Jue" was also slowly running in his body, the breath circulated and fused in the body, the thousands of holes and hundreds of acupuncture points in the human body exchanged with the breath outside the body, absorbing the clear spirit of the world...

Before I knew it, I had reached the state of "concentrating on Qi and making it soft, making it possible to be a baby".

……

Early the next morning.

Not long after the sky was bright, the warm sunlight shone into the house through the gaps in the wooden frame of the window and the window paper, making the whole room warm.

Chen Yuan put on his Taoist robe and pushed open the door, only to see that the weather outside today is very good and the sun is shining brightly.

I found that my brother and sister-in-law were wearing aprons and busy in the kitchen next door, but my brother Chen Wenqing was nowhere to be seen.

"Brother and sister, where is my elder brother?"

Chen Yuan asked the busy brothers and sisters in the kitchen.

"He just woke up. Seeing that you haven't woken up yet, he went to the shop to do business. Uncle Lang, I prepared willow branches and coarse salt for you. You should wash up first."

At this time, the brother and sister-in-law came out of the kitchen, carrying a basin of warm water and other things for washing.

Originally, with Chen Yuan's cultivation base, he could already cleanse his whole body automatically, without washing at all.

It's just that since the brother and sister-in-law are ready, it would be a waste of brother and sister-in-law's kindness if he refuses.

"Okay, brother and sister-in-law."

Chen Yuan thanked him, and immediately squatted in the yard and began to wash up.

To wash and clean teeth in Dayong, ordinary people mainly use willow branches and coarse salt, while some wealthy families mainly use tooth powder ground from herbs, and toothbrushes made of horsetail hair and wood.

Dayong even has shops selling toothbrushes and tooth powder in many places.

When Chen Yuan was washing, he felt someone pulling his trouser legs.

Chen Yuan turned around, just in time to see a very cute little girl with two shofar braids and black eyes, looking up at him.

It was his niece Chen Jinxin.

The baby name seems to be Xiuxiu.

"Uncle, play with me."

The little girl tugged at the hem of Chen Yuan's Taoist robe, and looked at Chen Yuandao with shining eyes.

Although it was the first time she saw Chen Yuan since she could remember, this little girl seemed to trust Chen Yuan very much, and did not treat Chen Yuan as an outsider. The second day after Chen Yuan came home, she came to play with Chen Yuan .

"Okay, I'll play with you."

Chen Yuan laughed.

After washing, he picked up Xiuxiu and said to his brother and sister-in-law who were busy in the kitchen: "Brother and sister-in-law, I will take Xiuxiu and go to brother's shop to have a look."

The brother and sister-in-law who were busy in the kitchen replied: "You go, I will send the meal to the shop for you after I cook it, be careful of running around."

Chen Yuan carried the little girl out of the courtyard, walked out of Lihua Lane, and walked to the shop opened by his elder brother Chen Wenqing in his memory.

The shop opened by his elder brother Chen Wenqing is actually a grocery store located in the south of the city.

Because of his business acumen, when Chen Wenqing lived in the countryside in his early years, he felt that there was no way out to cultivate the fields, so he collected some mountain products and animal skins from the mountain people and sold them in the county town, and he made a fortune after going back and forth.

Later, he simply bought a house in the county seat, moved his family from the countryside to the county seat, and settled down in the county seat.

But the good times didn't last long. It didn't take long for the two old people in the Chen family to die of illness one after another. After spending a lot of money on medical expenses and funeral expenses, the two old people were buried.

The money Chen Wenqing earned in his early years was almost spent, so much so that Chen Wenqing even had trouble getting a wife.

However, Chen Wenqing, an ordinary country girl, didn't like it either. Later, when he arrived at 27, he didn't know what kind of luck his eldest brother had, so that he was able to marry this brother who was educated, reasonable, housekeeping, beautiful, and had everything. sister-in-law.

His brother-in-law's surname is Wu, and his name is Wu Qingping.

She is not from Pingliang County. It is said that she is a woman from a rich family in trouble that his elder brother met when he was selling goods on the way to Lin County. Because she was rescued by his elder brother Chen Wenqing, the two liked each other and made a private appointment for life.

……

Chen Yuan just left not long ago.

A middle-aged man wearing jujube soap clothes, with a long knife hanging from his waist, and a strong body, holding a box wrapped in hemp paper, decorated with square red paper, with a word "tea" written on the front. Yacha came to Chen Wenqing's courtyard.

After the yamen's servant knocked on the courtyard door a few times, Wu Qingping opened the courtyard door and saw the yamen's servant standing outside the door.

Wu Qingping's eyes were a little more vigilant: "This poor man, who are you looking for?"

The yamen servant looked respectful and said: "Excuse me, Chen Yuan, Daoist Chen lives here?"

Wu Qingping thought it was her uncle who committed the crime and was wanted by the court, her expression changed slightly and she asked again: "What are you looking for him for?"

Afraid of causing a misunderstanding, the clerk hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I am the clerk of the county government, and I came to see Daoist Chen on the order of the county magistrate."

Wu Qingping said: "Uncle Lang just went out, you can come to him next time."

Wu Qingping breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her brother-in-law did not commit a crime and was wanted by the court, she said directly.

While speaking, she was about to close the door.

"Wait, madam, you see I've come here, I can't let me take the presents back, can I? You can take it for Daoist Chen first."

Yacha said quickly.

"I'll tell Uncle Lang about the poor man's visit. As for the gift or something, the poor man will bring it back by himself."

Wu Qingping shook her head and refused, then closed the door directly.

She is not one of those women in the countryside who are open to money and don't understand the world. The county magistrate ordered someone to send a gift, so it means that her uncle has something worth making friends with, or even flattering her.

I still don't know what Uncle Lang thinks, if I rashly accept the gift, it is likely to bring unnecessary trouble to my Uncle Lang.

Outside the courtyard gate, in front of him being rejected, the Yacha could only make fun of himself, turned around and left with a wry smile.

However, when he thought about the errands entrusted to him by the county magistrate, he would be so messed up, and the yamen had a headache for a while, how to deal with the county magistrate.
