Chapter 261 Guanyin Temple Fair
On the way, passing by a stall selling musical instruments, Qi Tianqing smiled when he saw that Man Xiu had been watching a flute.
"How much is this flute?"
"You have good eyesight. This flute is the best one in it. It is the only one, and there is no other. But the price is a little more expensive. It costs 100 taels of silver.
"It's only a hundred taels? Is this also expensive?
Qi Tianqing said that she wanted to reach out to get the money, but Man Xiu stopped her. "Just look, what's the matter of buying it?" With that, he let go of the flute that he couldn't put down. What's his status? When he returns to Zhou's house, I'm afraid it's useless to have this flute except to cause trouble to himself.
"Ha ha, look at what you said. You gave me a porcelain doll, don't you have to return a gift?"
"Don't say it."
"Brother, this is a good flute. Take a look!" While the two were arguing, the flute was picked up by another person, who was the sister of the previous brother and sister.
Maybe you pretend to be too into the play, and now it seems that you can easily get angry. Without saying anything, Qi Tianqing snatched the flute from the other party's hand. "This is mine. I want it."
"Do you want it? But did you pay the money?
"How about paying now?" Qi Tianqing went to get the silver angrily. As a result, it didn't matter, but the silver was gone. Qi Tianqing frowned angrily.
Seeing Qi Tianqing like this, Man Xiu also guessed a few points and helped others steal the silver, but he didn't think about himself, but lost it. It's hard to guarantee that it's not that Qi Tianqing was stared at when he just gave him a trap. It's really careless to think about it. But in this vast sea of people, where to find the thief, you can only admit defeat.
"I don't like this flute. Let's not buy it."
Man Xiu gently pressed Qi Tianqing's arm with his hand, nodded to the two princes of the other party, turned around and left.
The brother who didn't want to buy the flute, after looking at the flute, spent a hundred taels of silver and exchanged it into his own hands.
"Hey, are you still angry?"
"If it were you, you wouldn't be angry!"
"Let's just give it to me, a total of more than 80 taels."
"You don't block me here!"
"Forget it, don't be angry. I'm so angry, but there's no one to replace you. What's the use of that flute? Spend 100 taels to buy a murder weapon back. I still want to live a stable life for a few days, hehe.
"Bah, with me, I'll see who dares to touch you!"
"Ha ha, the gentleman I rely on, then you can't do anything. What should I do if you get angry?
Qi Tianqing laughed when he was said by Man Xiu.
"It's not serious!"
"Where am I not serious again? Even if you catch someone to ask now, no one will say that I'm not serious.
"Do you still need to be arrested? That's the answer."
Man Xiu smiled slightly, and Qi Tianqing also smiled.
The two walked to a temple and saw that more and more people gathered, and they all looked at the temple. They couldn't help but be curious. Man Xiu asked a little brother next to him, "This little brother, is there anything in this temple? Why are there so many people?
"The prince doesn't know that the living immortals are going to appear here today. No, everyone is waiting here, just asking him to calculate his fate and give me some advice."
"Oh? Living immortals?"
"Yes, the real living immortal, his fortune-telling is a hundred times, and he is absolutely speechless! Moreover, without opening his mouth, he knows what you are asking for, and the prescriptions he prescribes are also extremely useful. Let's talk about it. A man from my village came to tell his fortune. The living fairy said that he was a hunter and told him that he was too old to live for more than 100 days, but if he could rest at home for a hundred days and avoid this disaster, he would live a long life. After returning, the hunter began to stay at home and rest. Unexpectedly, he couldn't beat his whole day's chatter, saying that he was a big man who was told by a fortune teller and stayed at home all day long, which was not ashamed. As soon as the hunter thought about it, he did not listen to the instructions of the living immortals and went hunting as usual. Guess what, on the 98th day after fortune-telling, when everyone thought that the fairy was a delusion, the hunter had an accident while hunting and was eaten by the big insect, and his bones were gone!"
"Is it really so smart?" Qi Tianqing couldn't help interrupting doubtfully.
"Of course. There are many effective examples. I heard that the living immortal can even calculate everyone's surname! It's amazing. Unfortunately, I only come to this Guanyin Temple once a year. If I don't seize the opportunity, I can only wait for the next year!"
"Yes, he cured Wang's low back pain in my neighboring village last year. Well, my leg pain has also tormented me for many years before I knew that there was such a living fairy. This time, I came here hundreds of miles away, but I have to beg. At least cure the leg disease. At this time, another person next to him also interrupted.
"Are you also here to treat leg pain? Me too. Huh? Isn't it Sister-in-law Qi over there? Humph, when I told her, he still said he didn't believe it. Isn't this the end?
"Are you talking about the little woman in a blue skirt? Is she so young that she still needs medical treatment?
"Well, I've been married for more than a year and haven't had a child. I guess the family is also anxious. This living fairy is so effective that he must have come for this."
"By the way, why hasn't this living fairy come yet? Didn't you say you would come on time? It's been a quarter of an hour!"
"He is an immortal, and it is already benevolent and righteous to make time to give us some advice. Let alone a quarter of an hour, even if it is waiting for a day or a few days, what's the matter!"
"Hm, I'm abrupt!"
When Qi Tianqing looked away, the people waiting at the gate of the temple were talking, so they said to Man Xiu, "Let's go in later and have a look. I really want to see where this living fairy is!"
Manxiu was about to say something, but suddenly saw a crowd surge. The crowd just waiting seemed to have washed down the dam and rushed into the temple.
Before Qi Tianqing could react, she was squeezed by the people next to her. She looked sideways and saw a slender hand stretched out in the crowd, so she happily greeted her hand, "Let's go in!"
From the gate of the temple to the temple, it seems that it has not taken a step, but has been pushed forward. But even so, Qi Tianqing was very satisfied, because she knew that Qin Manxiu was behind her, and his hand was always in her hand, which was enough.
The temple is full of people, but it is not as disorderly as the door just now, but consciously lined up in a long line, waiting for the arrival and guidance of the living immortals.
Qi Tianqing, standing in front of him, blushed at this time, but still held the hands of the people behind him tightly.
"Don't open your mouth first. Let me calculate what you are here for." The living immortal inside was dressed in a Taoist suit, holding a magic sword in his hand, and after chanting the spirit of heaven and earth, he meditated on the ground. After a long time, he said, "If you are not wrong, you have leg disease, and the disease has been haunting you for many years. You came here today to seek treatment for leg disease."
"Ah! You are such a living immortal! Living immortal, do you think there is any cure for my disease?
"Let me ask you, have you seen a doctor before because of this leg disease?"
"I've seen it. I don't know how many doctors I have seen and how much money I spent for this disease, but it's not good."
"I didn't say you, but fortunately you came to find me early. If you drag it for another year or two, your leg will be completely abolished.
Ah? Living immortals, help! Living immortals, help! This family is still pointing at me. If I don't have legs, how can I live!"
"Don't be impatient! You also accumulated virtue in your previous life, and Guanyin will take care of you in this life. I happen to have a side medicine for your leg disease. Just take it and use it."
"Thank you for the living immortals! Thank you, living immortals!"
Thank you, the living fairy took a bag of medicine from the servant, but did not give it to him immediately. Instead, she said, "The Empress Guanyin has taken care of you and given you a panacea. Today is her old man's birthday. Do you..."
"Fire money! Yes, yes! Look at my head, I must have been kicked by a donkey! Living immortals, this is a filial respect for Guanyin and living immortals. Please put them away and say a few good words for me in front of you. I, I am very grateful!"
"Hehe, I won't accept what is given to me. Well, I will also give these to the Empress Guanyin for you and ask for a blessing, which is also an Account for you.
"Oh! You are really a living fairy and a living Bodhisattva! I, thank you, living immortals, thank you very much!" With that, the other party kowtowed heavily on the ground.
After that, several people in a row, as the man in front of the temple said before, really knew his intention without opening his mouth, and he took medicine to get rid of the disease.
However, what attracted the attention of Qi Tianqing is the person behind the living immortal. It seems that the person will pass a note to the living immortal before telling everyone, and the living immortal will finally burn the note when chanting the spell.
Is there anything wrong with that note?
No, the person who handed the note seemed to communicate with the people in the crowd with eyes and gestures! Qi Tianqing followed the man's eyes and found a person who was gesturing to the person behind the living fairy. At this time, the living fairy was saying something to the people.
That gesture...
The next person was the sister-in-law Qi who was asked by the man at the temple gate before. Qi Tianqing saw the person in the crowd pointing to his stomach and pointing to his head, and then stroked his stomach with both hands to make his stomach bigger.
Good! This is the so-called living immortal! Everyone tells the other party what they want in advance. No wonder they can know what the other party wants without opening their mouth.
A quarter of an hour, this living immortal really counts! All the people who come to ask for help will arrive at the gate of the temple before the agreed time, and he will not appear. When people meet, they will naturally talk about each other and ask each other about the situation. At this time, he also arranges his own people among the crowd, and naturally gets first-hand information and knows what the other party wants.
Thinking of this, the corners of Qi Tianqing's mouth rose, and her heart was about to laugh. But then, she deliberately shouted, "You are naive and treat me unfairly! You have a house and money, but you can't get the heart of your lover! Now I have got the heart of my lover, but I have no life to enjoy! The doctor said that I couldn't live this February, and all the people died. What's the use of leaving my lover and leaving these field deeds! What's the use!" With that, Qi Tianqing beat his chest and burst into tears.
