I have Taoism and can understand other worlds

Chapter 5 The Return
After all, Mr. Li was once a high official in the court, but he figured it out in one day.

The dog friends who used to drink wine with Li Mingxue were arrested one after another. After a little interrogation, they learned about the person named Su.They were just asked to explain his surname and appearance, but not many of them could explain it clearly.

Starting from the woman who jumped into the river, we soon found her brother.But according to that person, his little sister died of illness two years ago and had never been in contact with Li Mingxue's good friend.The official was a little surprised when he heard about this, so he informed Mr. Li about it.By the time the people surnamed Su were hunted down, the Su family's house had already been deserted and had become cobwebs.

The case was stuck, and Li Mingxue's injustice became known to everyone.The man named Su disappeared without a trace, and Mr. Li hated him with hatred.He swore that even if he died of old age, his son, an official, would find him.

There were no more weird things happening in Li Mansion.After half a month, Li Mingxue was also buried successfully.

A few days had passed since Jiang Wen left the temple, and the day to return was coming soon, so he was ready to return to the Taoist temple.

Although Mr. Li repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, Jiang Wen did not delay any longer.

On the day before leaving, Mr. Li sent a big gift. In addition to the last deposit, he also added 500 taels of gold.

"This thing was given by Master Taixuan of Ziwei Palace in Beijing. It can exorcise evil spirits and protect the house and courtyard. The old man hid it in the treasury and never took it out, so he gave it to the Immortal. I hope the Immortal will not dislike it. "Master Li held a sword in his hand and handed it to Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen took the sword and looked at it, and saw that the sword was exquisitely made, no worse than various works of art in previous lives.The scabbard is inlaid with precious stones, which look like seven stars when connected together.The blade of the sword felt sharp to the touch. I pinched off a piece of hair to test the sharpness, but it broke instantly when I blew it.

"Good sword." Jiang Wen praised.

He usually likes weapons, and he liked this sword quite a bit.Since Mr. Li wanted to give it to him, he accepted it without any courtesy.

"I have troubled the Immortal with matters in the house. When my son's injustice is settled, I will come to the Immortal Gate again to express my gratitude to the Immortal." Mr. Li bowed his hands in salute.

"Master Li, please take care of yourself." Jiang Wen comforted him in a warm voice.

Probably due to the pain of losing his son, Mr. Li's gray hair and wrinkles have obviously increased.The man looks much older than when we first met him, and his originally straight waist also looks slightly rickety.

"Thank you, Immortal, for your concern." Mr. Li smiled bitterly. "It was the old man who failed to teach his son well and pampered Mingxue too much that made him end up like this."

"Everyone has his destiny. Maybe this is the calamity of the Third Young Master. It takes three disasters and six calamities for an immortal to become an immortal. The Third Young Master will definitely have a good future in his next life." Jiang Wen found an excuse and tried to make Mr. Li feel better. .

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Mr. Li's expression became much more relaxed.Although there is still a bit of sadness on his face, it is better than the dull look just now.

After talking to Mr. Li, Jiang Wen said goodbye.When he boarded the carriage, he looked towards the Li Mansion and saw Li Mingxue, neatly dressed and bowing deeply to him with a smile on his face.

The carriages and horses gradually went away, and the scenery along the way was still the same, but it was a little more green than when it came.

Jiang Wen was sitting in the carriage, holding a sword in his hand and looking out of the carriage.He sorted through what happened in recent days and felt that Li Mingxue's death by drowning might not be that simple.

After further investigation, I couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it any more.

He closed his eyes and fell asleep with the rocking of the carriage, and his consciousness came to a misty place.Just looking up, you can see a statue of a god more than ten feet tall sitting cross-legged.The face was similar to Jiang Wen, but it was more sacred.The statue is covered in golden light, like a golden man.

Jiang Wen looked at the statue with a wry smile on his face.

"This is my golden finger. It's really troublesome."

After activating the statue that night, Jiang Wen understood what happened to his golden finger.The statue in front of him is his incarnation, connected with the gods in the Taoist temple.

As long as others come to the Taoist temple to pray, he can get news from them.The incense enjoyed by the gods in the temple is also absorbed by this statue.As long as enough incense is collected, various blessings can be given to the prayers.Although it is not as mysterious as in mythology, it is somewhat useful.

Just like those who seek children can receive the blessing of easy pregnancy, those who seek wealth can receive the blessing of gathering wealth, and those who seek health can receive the blessing of recovery.It's not a magical power, but it's affordable and easy to use.If you can pay enough incense, you can also make clouds and rain, and call the wind and welcome thunder.

And another ability is merit value.As long as Jiang Wen does good deeds, he can obtain merit points, and these merit points have many wonderful uses. They can deduce exercises and refine magic weapons.Even the use of various immortal spells and magical powers can be achieved using merit points.Looking at the 36 Tiangang techniques and the 72 Earthly Evil techniques recorded in the statue, Jiang Wen felt a little itchy in his heart and wanted to try them out.

He placed his hand on the stone tablet next to the statue, and as the golden light lit up, two lines of text appeared.

[Incense: eighteen thousand]

[Merit value: 390] "I didn't expect my merit value to be so low." Jiang Wen looked at the stone tablet speechlessly.

He had already expected this outcome. After all, he had not done any great good deeds since inheriting the Taoist temple.Even if medicine is distributed to the people, it is just to buy a name.It is not a good deed for people to exchange their property for medicine.

What can really be considered a good deed should be to help Li Mingxue wash away his grievances this time.

"I wonder how this merit value is calculated?" Jiang Wen thought with interest.

While still on the road, he tried to deduce the Taoist scriptures.

There are many Taoist works, the most familiar of which is the Tao Te Ching.Unfortunately, the Tao Te Ching is not a book that can be used for cultivation, so Jiang Wen did not choose it.

He thought of a relatively classic work, which can be regarded as a Taoist monograph on health preservation and immortality.

"Huang Ting Jing", also known as "Laozi Huang Ting Jing", is an important work of the Shangqing School of Taoism.It is also the main secret scripture regarded by the Neidan family as the practice of Neidan. Jiang Wen often recited it with his grandfather when he was a child.Although there is no such thing as immortality in the original world, the so-called ascension to enlightenment is just a fantasy.

But now that he met Li Mingxue's ghost in this world, Jiang Wen felt that this world might not be as simple as he imagined.

There are ghosts and ghosts, can the monsters be far behind?Immortals should have some, right?Jiang Wen thought so.

Including the "Huangting Sutra" in the deduction, all merit values ​​shown on the stone tablet can only be deduced from the upper part of the Sutra of Outer Scenery.

After confirming the deduction, I learned that it would take fifteen days for the deduction to be successful.Jiang Wen then exited consciousness and stopped paying attention to the progress.

By the time the carriages and horses arrived in front of Jingxu Temple, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

Jiang Wen figured it was time for him to return to his original world, so he no longer asked the young man who saw him off to live in the temple.He just gave the other party some money and asked him to find a hotel to stay for one night.

Pushing open the door of the Taoist temple and looking at the same scenery inside the Taoist temple, he felt very friendly.

Although I haven't returned home for several days, the Taoist temple is still dust-free.I think this should be the function of activating the statue to keep the Taoist temple clean.

After checking everywhere in the Taoist temple, I found that nothing was missing.So Jiang Wen held his cell phone and waited for the time to return.

When the time was locked in the early morning, the entire Taoist temple shook slightly.Then the sky and the earth rotated, the sun and the moon alternated, and the originally starry night turned into day.

"I'm back now." Jiang Wen looked at the sky and smiled.

"buzzing"

The phone kept vibrating, so I took it out to check.It was a message someone else sent him during his absence.

The flow of time on both sides is different. Even if you stay in the other world for seven or eight days, it will only be two or three days here.

As for the question of whether the Taoist temple existed after he visited it, Jiang Wen did record it.The Taoist temple still existed after he left, but he should not be in the Taoist temple.Is this a mirror image, or does Taoism exist in both worlds?Jiang Wen couldn't understand.

{Sir, do you still sell gold here? }
{The game last time was good. I wonder if Mr. Jiang still has it in stock. }
……

Most of the news was about buying, because Jiang Wen always brought back all kinds of game, so he found some channels to sell these things.

After all, there are a lot of game in the other world, and there are even more medicinal materials such as century-old ginseng.

Jiang Wen even has a collection of several thousand-year-old ginseng, which is a natural medicine that is close to becoming an essence.

He replied to everyone's messages one by one, and after tidying up the Taoist temple, he opened the door of the Taoist temple.

But he never thought that there was a person sitting at the door of the Taoist temple.
