Carrying the red sandalwood box on her back, Jiang Ni suddenly soared into the sky with her sword. She stepped on the Great Liang Dragon Sparrow Sword. After the flying sword suddenly stopped, she looked down at the entire Big Lotus Peak with her red eyes. Her murderous aura was shocking.
It was unimaginable that a small vegetable garden could make two grandmasters regard it as a pool of thunder.
Hsu Fengnian was out of Jiang Ni's expectations. Not only did he not directly slip down the mountain, he did not even go too far. Instead, he slyly hid in the crowd near the Elephant Washing Pond. He squatted behind a crowded stall and bought two pieces of Wudang sesame seed cake from the still charming lady boss. He chewed and swallowed very slowly, as if he was tasting his last meal. The lady was also curious about why this handsome young man squatting by her feet was not willing to sit down. She blushed. Could it be that he had that kind of thought? She did not have too many ripples in her heart. She only felt that if she knew the situation would be like this, she would have asked for two more copper coins from him.
Next to this stall was an old Taoist with a goatee who was interpreting the marriage fortune sticks for people. He was wearing an old Taoist robe that was heavily mended. Looking at the style, it was obvious that he was not a Taoist from Wudang Mountain. On the small table, there was a large bamboo pot that was polished until it was shiny, allowing customers to draw lots and then interpret the fortune sticks to receive money.
Hsu Fengnian looked up and was surprised that this stall's business was booming. There were no less than thirty to forty devotees waiting to draw lots. The old Taoist calmly sat behind the table, squinting his eyes and twirling his beard. The customer opposite the table was a graceful young woman. She was probably a pilgrim from Gangnam-do who came all the way to Wudang Mountain to burn incense. Although she was not tall and her face was slightly immature, the weight of her chest was very heavy. The old Taoist calmly lifted his butt slightly to glance at her waist. Tsk tsk, what a small waist. He was worried that her waist would be blown apart by a gust of wind.
Hsu Fengnian couldn't help but curse silently. When he was down and out, he had also done this kind of business without any capital, but he had never encountered such a good situation. Often when the bustling temple fair was over, there were no customers with a pair of hands.
Looking at Hsu Fengnian's expression, the woman chuckled softly and said, "Gongzi, although this Old Immortal Wu is not a Wudang Taoist, within a radius of a hundred li, I have heard that his' Marriage Fortune Stick 'is extremely effective. I have seen with my own eyes that quite a few rich young ladies from Liangzhou came here to draw lots. There were even people who rushed over to give money to Elder Immortal Wu after they got what they wanted. At most, each person gave ten taels of silver. It was truly a sincere heart. "
Hsu Fengnian took a big bite of Wudang's spring sesame seed cake and said snappily, "If I set up a stall here to ask for money, I would also be willing to spend money to hire some women to act. Over time, even if it doesn't work, it will still work."
The woman didn't know whether to laugh or cry. As a widowed lady, she also went next door to draw lots with more curiosity than hope. After hearing this young customer boasting so much, she couldn't say anything unpleasant. She could only say, "Gongzi, you really … love to joke."
Hsu Fengnian dismissed it with a smile.
After the young lady with a slender waist and spectacular breasts shook a lot, she held it tightly in her hand and looked down timidly. She was at a loss. She stretched out her hand to hand the 'Marriage Fortune Stick' and asked delicately, "Taoist priest, what is the meaning of this stick?"
Perhaps she was a woman from a big family. When she handed over the stick, her two fingers carefully clamped the end of the stick. She was a bit regretful that he couldn't take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the old Taoist priest. He lowered his head to look at the stick in his hand and then solemnly looked up at her. He then picked up the teapot and drank a mouthful of tea to moisten his throat. He then slowly said, "This is the twenty-eighth stick."
The young lady was uneasy and waited for him to continue.
The old Taoist priest smiled, "Young lady, don't worry. Although it's not the best stick, it's still a good stick. It means that if you can't get the person you like this time, you must remember not to be discouraged. There will always be a day when you see the light at the end of the tunnel."
The young lady, whose forehead was already sweating, was relieved. She was full of smiles. Her rare graceful bearing of a Beiliang almost made the old Taoist priest infatuated.
The young lady let the maid beside her take out an extra hundred copper coins. She happily turned around and left.
The next guest was a young man with a sturdy body. He grabbed the stick pot and shook it vigorously. After a stick fell out, he grabbed it and slammed it on the table, "Look at what stick it is!"
The old Taoist priest's eyelids trembled. He picked up the stick with a straight face and concisely said, "'Fei Changfang's Endless Yearning Place', the sixteenth stick, the worst stick."
The young man was stunned and angrily said, "Even the twenty-eighth stick of that little girl is a good draw. Why is my sixteenth stick a dog's fart bad stick? Old bastard! Are you looking for trouble?! "
The old Taoist priest turned a deaf ear to this and slightly shifted his gaze, "Next."
The young man angrily said, "I'm not paying!"
The old Taoist priest was indeed an otherworldly immortal. He indifferently said, "There is a rule when I interpret sticks for people. No matter the stick is good or bad, if you believe it, you will get a hundred copper coins. If you don't believe it, you can leave. I will not make it difficult for you."
The young man was obviously shocked. His momentum suddenly decreased and he asked, "Who is this Fei Changfang?"
The old Taoist priest coldly said, "He is a famous Taoist immortal Zhenren of the Dafeng Dynasty!"
The old Taoist priest paused for a moment. With a solemn face, he said in a low voice, "This Master Fei is also a good friend of my sect's founder. In the end, they even agreed to ascend together. There is nothing more grand in the world than this."
The young man was speechless. In the end, he obediently took out a hundred copper coins and gently placed it on the table. He left with a heavy heart.
After this small storm, the old Taoist priest had the demeanor of a Taoist master. Even the tattered Taoist robe on his body seemed to have a sense of vicissitudes.
Hsu Fengnian watched from the beginning to the end. He was quite impressed. The old liar did have some Taoist skills. The more he watched, the more interested he became. The following words from the customers were relatively ordinary. There was neither extremely bad nor extremely auspicious. However, what was interesting was that many of the words were taken from Wang Chudong's "The First Snow". For example, a young hero asked for a "Qingquan Saber is like the soil" and the following sentence, "I can't bear to look at the green hair of the lady, but met with the yellow shirt of the guest". These were all popular phrases taken from "The First Snow". It was said that in the early years, a few noble concubines in the Liyang Palace loved the First Snow very much. Not only that, even the names of the three songs of the Beimang Chess and Sword Music School were chosen from the original songs of "The First Snow". It was conceivable that if Wang Chudong were to appear in the Central Plains, he would be a first-class guest.
Every time he heard a familiar phrase, Hsu Fengnian squinted his eyes and smiled. In the end, he looked a little absent-minded. He remembered that there was a woman who was married thousands of miles away. She was infatuated with this book.
Hsu Fengnian sighed. When he was about to stand up, he suddenly squatted back down.
