Longevity from Liao Zhai

Chapter 56: Really not doing anything

"Zhou Ping, you want a wife or not, I have a sister."

Fan Shiyi looked at Zhou Ping expectantly.

Zhou Ping was wondering in his heart, this plot seemed a little familiar.

"Your sister?"

Zhou Ping thought Fan Shiyi wanted to introduce twin sisters to him.

If that's the case, it's not impossible.

Fan Shiyi looks like this, so his sister should be pretty good too.

Zhou Ping thought of Fan Shiyi’s fan comics again.

The man in black robe, Li Fei, painted Fan Shiyi's head on the woman's body.

Zhou Ping immediately had another picture in his mind.

"I don't have a biological sister, I have a foster sister."

Fan Shiyi shook his head and said.

Fan Shiyi thought Zhou Ping was a talented person, so he planned to find a good match for Zhou Ping.

"My sister."

Zhou Ping was a little uninterested.

"what happened?"

Fan Shiyi asked.

"Let me be clear, there is a difference between a foster sister and a foster sister, and there is a difference between a biological sister and a biological sister."

Zhou Ping said.

The corners of Fan Shiyi's mouth twitched slightly. How could she not hear the change in intonation of the same word?

"Seriously, don't be ridiculous."

"I have many adopted sisters. Some are from the families of high-ranking officials, some are from wealthy merchants, and some are from royal families. Oh, by the way, the Eighth Princess is also my adopted sister."

"Well, which one do you like?"

Fan Shiyi counted on his fingers to introduce his sister to Zhou Ping.

These godsisters all have prominent family backgrounds, and any one of them could be a good match for Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping shook his head.

Fan Shiyi asked in confusion.

"Why, you don't like this? There are so many people lining up to marry these girls."

Fan Shiyi thought Zhou Ping looked down on him.

"It's not that I don't like you, it's that I'm afraid of having to take over your business."

Zhou Ping expressed his thoughts. This is probably about finding a father for your son.

Zhou Ping didn't know that Fan Shiyi was a woman. He thought that these were all seeds that Fan Shiyi had sown.

"Take over the plate. Hero? Who is this hero? I have never heard of him."

Fan Shiyi asked in confusion.

"Oh, it's a southern dialect. It means someone is pregnant with your child, so I'll help you marry her. That's what it means."

Zhou Ping explained.

The corners of Fan Shiyi's mouth twitched slightly.

"Dry!"

"Although I like women, I never do such dirty things."

Fan Shiyi said righteously.

"Zhou Ping, I can guarantee this. Master Fan always uses real actions to deal with women, not real actions."

Xiaoqing's voice came with a smile.

Xiaobai lay on the ground and scooped up the moon in the water.

Xiaoqing would splash water on Xiaobai from time to time.

Xiaobai and Xiaoqing had a lot of fun.

Zhou Ping nodded slowly. He began to understand Fan Shiyi a little.

"I understand. Mr. Fan is a man of love but not vulgarity, and he is affectionate but not virtuous."

Zhou Ping said.

Fan Shiyi was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Yes, that's right, being romantic doesn't mean being vulgar, being affectionate doesn't mean leaving any offspring."

“These two sentences are very touching to me, very touching to me.”

Fan Shiyi became more interested in Zhou Ping. These two sentences were quite literary and touched Fan Shiyi's heart.

"You are also a talented person, and with my face, if you are willing to marry into the Eighth Princess' family, I can mediate for you."

Fan Shiyi said again. She really wanted to matchmake Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping was stunned for a long time without saying anything. He had no intention of moving to Beijing.

Zhou Ping still has to escort the convoy to gain extra life.

There are many hidden talents in the capital city, and it's not a suitable place for me.

"Master Fan, what species is Xiaoqing? Is it a rat snake?"

Zhou Ping asked in a low voice.

Fan Shiyi looked at Zhou Ping with interest, and she understood what Zhou Ping meant. It turned out that Zhou Ping had a crush on Xiao Qing.

"She has a triangle head."

Fan Shiyi said quietly.

On the shore, several yamen runners watched the escorts being thanked by the victims and Zhou Ping and Fan Shiyi on the boat, and the jealousy in their hearts was about to explode.

"Damn it, more than ten of our brothers died, but only one person died in the escort agency."

"Why can the people of the escort agency be thanked by the disaster victims, and why can Zhou Ping travel with Master Fan?"

“We are like lost dogs.”

The bailiffs began to complain.

Captain Leng frowned, feeling unbalanced.

"Cold head, I have an idea."

A bailiff said.

"explain."

Captain Leng frowned.

"Isn't there a ghost bride following Zhou Ping?"

"The ghost bride once injured the abbot of Jinhua Temple."

“Jinhua Temple is in Qingyuan County.”

The bailiff said.

Captain Leng didn't say anything. After a moment of silence, he nodded.

the next day.

After the victims had food, order was restored.

After dinner, some people started to figure out how to go into the water to catch fish.

The land in Qingyuan County is gone and there is no way to grow crops anymore.

But someone found fish in the water, and they were very big.

Some people have caught fish.

The victims couldn't farm, so they started fishing.

"After a while, people here will learn how to catch fish, and life will be much better."

Fan Shiyi said.

Zhou Ping nodded.

Although ordinary people do not have the ability to turn a palm into a lake, they have strong vitality like grass.

In time, the people here will find new ways to survive.

"Zhou Ping, something bad has happened."

"Xiaobai was captured by the monks from Jinhua Temple."

Mr. Yuan ran over, panting.

Zhou Ping's heart tightened.

Jinhua Temple? Monk?

Zhou Ping had had contact with Jinhua Temple, and the dirty deeds of praying for a child in Jinhua Temple were still vivid in his mind.

However, Zhou Ping destroyed the Jinhua Temple's Child-Seeking Courtyard, and those lustful monks were also killed.

Zhou Ping didn't have a good impression of Jinhua Temple.

Not to mention, Jinhua Temple aided and abetted the tyrant and was only interested in money.

The incident of the ghost bride was clearly the He family's fault, but Jinhua Temple still couldn't distinguish between good and evil and wanted to destroy the ghost bride.

Zhou Ping vaguely felt that Jinhua Temple was coming for him, or rather, for the ghost bride.

Zhou Ping followed Yuan Gong to a group of monks.

There are more than a hundred monks in this group, and they live better than the victims.

There are still some disaster victims offering sacrifices to them.

Some disaster victims, after taking the relief food, would give it to the monks first, even if they did not eat it themselves.

That’s why these monks are still plump and white, and you don’t look like they are hungry.

The abbot of Jinhua Temple, Monk Fayuan, is holding a little white cat in his hands.

Xiaobai is struggling desperately.

However, Monk Fayuan has reached the ninth level of cultivation, and Xiaobai cannot break free.

Not far away, Captain Leng and several yamen runners were looking over here.

These people told Jinhua Temple about Zhou Ping and the ghost bride.

"Master, it's mine."

Zhou Ping stretched out his hand and said.

"Oh Amitabha, little brother, please don't talk nonsense. This little white cat is the property of our temple."

"It got lost a few days ago, and it came back today."

Monk Fayuan clasped his hands and said.

"Bald donkey, how can you lie with your eyes open? This is obviously Zhou Ping's cat."

Fan Shiyi was angry. She didn't like monks.

"This must be Master Fan, right?" "That day, several great masters fought against the Demon Lord, and I was lucky enough to meet Senior Fan Zhongfu, a first-class Confucian."

"Senior Fan is a handsome man, and your son is also a handsome man."

Monk Fayuan complimented.

"Don't be so hypocritical, give Xiaobai to Zhou Ping quickly."

Fan Shiyi frowned.

"Master Fan, although my father is a first-rank official, he still has to be fair."

"How do you prove that this cat belongs to Zhou Ping?"

"My teacher Pudu Cihang once taught me that no matter where I go or who I meet, I must convince them with reason."

Monk Fayuan brought out his own backer.

Fan Shiyi was silent.

Monk Fayuan first brought up Fan Zhongfu in order to make Fan Shiyi abide by the rules.

It's great that you are the son of a Confucian scholar, but you must obey the rules.

Fan Shiyi didn't expect that Monk Fayuan's master was actually Pudu Cihang.

Pudu Cihang was the imperial teacher of the Wei Dynasty, and his status was no lower than that of Fan Zhongfu.

It can be said that Fan Zhongfu was the spiritual leader of the scholars in the Wei Dynasty.

Pudu Cihang is the spiritual leader of the monks of Dawei.

In fact, Monk Fayuan’s master was not Pudu Cihang.

It was just that this time, the incident with the Demon Lord allowed Pu Du Ci Hang to meet Fa Yuan.

Pudu Cihang accepted Fayuan as his registered disciple and gave him several magic weapons and some skills.

Fa Yuan has obtained these martial arts secrets and has now gained some enlightenment, reaching the eighth level of cultivation!
After Fa Yuan learned about the ghost bride, he discussed countermeasures with the yamen runners.

At the beginning, catch Xiaobai.

Then he forced Zhou Ping to tell him where the ghost bride was.

"Master Fa Yuan, if you have any requests, just tell me."

Zhou Ping vaguely guessed the reason why Fa Yuan was targeting him, but he still needed confirmation.

"It's just a cat. If you want it, Jinhua Temple is willing to give it to you."

"It's just that I heard that the ghost bride was haunting the donor, so I wanted to help the donor exorcise the ghost."

Monk Fayuan expressed his thoughts. He wanted a ghost bride!

The ghost bride killed her apprentice and seriously injured herself.

Monk Fayuan wants to avenge this grudge.

Zhou Ping's face was gloomy. Sure enough, he was here for the ghost bride.

But how did he know the ghost bride was following me?
Zhou Ping looked into the distance.

Several yamen runners were gloating over the other's misfortune.

Zhou Ping understood. It was this group of yamen runners.

This group of yamen runners had seen the ghost bride, so they told the monk Fayuan about it.

Zhou Ping looked at the group of yamen runners coldly.

"Master Fa Yuan, Xiao Bai is mine."

Zhou Ping said in a deep voice. Although he didn't know the other party's cultivation level, if Fa Yuan continued to pester him, Zhou Ping was ready to take action.

Gou Dao, you are not such a dog.

You have to take action when it is necessary, otherwise others will think you are easy to bully and will keep bullying you.

"Zhou Ping, you said this cat is yours. Will it respond if you call it?"

The bailiffs started to make a fuss on the side.

"Yes, Zhou Ping, if you call it, will it answer you?"

The yamen runners laughed. They just didn't like Zhou Ping and the entire escort agency.

Zhou Ping narrowed his eyes tightly, and he mobilized all his strength to prepare for a few moves with Fa Yuan.

Fa Yuan stood on the moral high ground, preventing Fan Shiyi from taking any action.

Even if Fan Shiyi took action, he couldn't defeat Fa Yuan.

Mr. Yuan’s ability is not good enough.

In this case, Zhou Ping is the only one who can take action.

Zhou Ping has reached the ninth level of Buddhism.

Fa Yuan also secretly mobilized his forces. He knew that Zhou Ping was going to seize it by force.

"Zhou Zhou. Zhou. Zhou Ping."

Suddenly, a timid voice interrupted the situation.

Xiaobai in Fayuan's hand actually spoke.

"Zhou Ping, Zhou Ping, wow wow wow."

Xiaobai kept barking and crying.

Zhou Ping was confused, Fa Yuan was confused, and the yamen runners were also confused.

"Master, she agreed even without Zhou Ping asking her. What do you think we should do?"

Fan Shiyi laughed aside.

Fan Shiyi didn't expect that Xiaobai would actually speak.

Although Xiaobai can occasionally transform into a human, that is the effect of the shapeshifting grass.

Xiaobai is actually just a cat, far from being a monster.

These days, in order to play with the cat, Fan Shiyi would use elixirs to seduce Xiaobai.

Xiaobai was originally psychic, and after taking the elixir, his spiritual intelligence was awakened.

"Master, you just said that Master Pudu Cihang said that we should convince people with reason."

"Now that she's talking, why don't you let her go?"

Fan Shiyi uses magic to defeat magic.

Fa Yuan was completely confused. Xiaobai actually spoke and called Zhou Ping.

If you do this, you won't be in the right at all.

The bailiffs were also confused.

Captain Leng glared at the bailiff and said, "Will it respond if you shout?"

"Master Fa Yuan, why don't you open your hand? There is a demon in your hand!"

Leng, the captain of the police, reminded him. The word "妖" in his sentence had an emphasis.

Da Wei is the kingdom of the human race.

In the eyes of ordinary people, demons are bad and harmful.

Monsters are things that cannot be shown on the table.

Captain Leng's words were to tell Monk Fayuan that this was a monster!
The business of Buddhism is to slay demons and eliminate evil.

"Oh, yes, yes, this is a monster. I can tell at a glance that it is not a human."

Monk Fayuan understood what Captain Leng meant.

What's wrong with the little white cat calling your name? It's a monster.

"Zhou Ping, this cat is indeed yours, but I can't give it back to you."

"It's a demon!"

Monk Fayuan found another excuse.

Although the cat is yours, it is a demon, so I cannot give it to you.

Zhou Ping was angry in his heart, but his eyes were calm.

Some people's bottom line is so low that you can't imagine how dark their hearts are.

For such people, blindly tolerating them will only make them worse.

"In that case, let's do it."

Zhou Ping prepared to take action.

"What's wrong with a monster? Are all monsters bad? Not only did I save the entire Qinghe County, I also defeated the rat monster and transported food for disaster relief!"

Xiaoqing appeared at some point in time. It turned into a snake and lay on Zhou Ping's head.

"Bald donkey, let Xiaobai go!"

Xiaoqing released his aura, and the seventh-grade demonic power in his body was astonishingly powerful.

"Bald, Master Fayuan, this is Miss Xiaoqing. A few days ago, a mountain fell on top of Qinghe County. It was thanks to this girl that she held up the mountain and saved the people of Qinghe County."

"If she hadn't killed the rat demon during this tunnel trip, all the food would have been gone, and the victims in Qingyuan County would have starved to death."

Fan Shiyi used magic to defeat magic, allowing Xiaoqing to stand on the moral high ground.

At this point, Monk Fayuan was at a loss.

First, Xiaoqing is on the moral high ground.

Second, Xiaoqing has a high level of cultivation!

Monk Fayuan could feel that he could not defeat Xiaoqing.

Monk Fayuan glanced at Captain Leng and cursed these yamen runners in his heart.

Why didn't you tell me about this snake demon?

Why don't you tell the truth?

Captain Leng and others turned their heads and pretended not to see it.

Monk Fayuan was defeated and had to return Xiaobai.

If Fa Yuan doesn't let Xiao Bai go, he will become the target of public criticism.

Xiaoqing's achievements had long been known throughout the two counties.
