Qingyan looked at the entrance of the cave, thought for a while and said to Jin Yang: "Jin Yang, can you get a token, like a key, that can be used to enter this barrier and the stone chamber below so that someone can guard it? , and you can’t go in at will.”

Jin Yang nodded, "Of course, it's very easy. Just make it into the shape of a jade pendant or token. It's inconspicuous and easy to preserve."

Qingyan thinks that the token is better, but the jade pendant is too easy to break. If the jade is too good, it will be easily coveted as a valuable object, but if the jade is too ordinary, it will be thrown away.

Then he asked Chouchou to make some gold with higher purity, and gave it to Jin Yang as well as a palm-sized soul-locking stone. He also took down the two dragon flowers on the stone door and asked him to carve them according to them.

Jin Yang held the soul-locking stone in his hand and was confused. Then he sensed it carefully and found that he had indeed sensed it correctly.

"This is actually a soul-locking stone? Isn't this thing extinct? Why do you have it there?"

Qingyan: "It's what I just got down there. It should be used to suppress the two dragons. Otherwise, just a stone gate and barrier would be useless."

Jin Yang nodded, indicating that he understood, "It seems that the dragon clan is still powerful. If you want to suppress them, you have to use good tools. Look at the phoenix, it was suppressed after only making a formation."

Qingyan: "It should be related to their respective identities. The two dragons should have official positions, while the phoenix is ​​free, so the treatment they encounter will be different."

Jin Yang smashed his mouth and found that it really made sense.

Afterwards, they helped Jin Yang use formations to hide the boundary stone. This was a wood spirit stone, and it was exposed like this. What if someone with a sense of knowledge discovered it and took it away.

This is used to support the barrier. Without the barrier, it will definitely collapse. Once the stone chamber below collapses, the entire mountain will probably be affected.

I made a concealment method to hide its aura and make it look like an ordinary stone. This way, even if someone comes in by mistake, they won't find it.

Then he called Jin Yang who was guarding outside the woods. Of course, he didn't let him go through the woods on his own, but let him return to the space first, and then Jin Yang took it out of the space and arrived here directly.

It was already evening now. After all, it was already noon when they came. They walked through the woods for a long time and were delayed here for a while. In addition, Qingyan and Chou Chou spent several hours going back and forth below. It's almost getting dark now.

They simply walked out of the woods and went directly to say hello to Taoist Master Nanfeng. The other party knew that they had entered the woods, and they must inform him when they came out. It seemed not good to leave without saying hello.

Then Taoist Master Nanfeng said it was already getting late, and since he couldn't go into the city even if he went down the mountain, he might as well stay here for the night. There was a wing specifically for pilgrims and laymen to stay here.

Huang Jin wanted to say that he could go to Xiutian Temple, but considering that there were all men there, it would be inconvenient for Qingyan to live there. Unlike the wing here where there are separate rooms for men and women, it would be better to stay here.

Of course, they can also find any reason to leave and return to the space later.

But Jin Yang wants to refine two tokens, and then he has to go to the barrier to test it, and he has to come back again after leaving. It's too troublesome, so he just stayed.

Because of the aura, it would take at least five days for Jin Yang to refine two tokens.

This still has to be done inside the space. If it's outside, I don't know how long it will take.

Because it is the "key" for entering and exiting the enchantment, it must match the enchantment, so you have to enter and exit the enchantment several times, so instead of running back and forth, it is more convenient to live directly in the Taoist temple.

The accommodation conditions here are quite good. Not only do they have specially arranged rooms, but they also have a dedicated kitchen for eating.

Unlike Buddhist temples that only provide vegetarian food, here there is both meat and vegetables, and even drinks, which can be said to be quite complete.

Although it's not free, it's not expensive either. It's only fifty cents a day. This price is quite cheap for Qingyan and the others. Staying in an inn is much more expensive than this.

What's more, this includes food and drink. Besides, the most important thing they have is money. More is no problem.

They asked for three wing rooms. Qingyan lived in the courtyard where the woman lived on the left, and Chou Chou and the others lived in the courtyard where the men lived on the right.

Chou Chou has a room by himself, and Huang Jin and Jin Yang have a room. This is to provide cover for Jin Yang to enter the space, otherwise it will never come out, and there is no movement in the room, so the people next door should be suspicious.

So in the next few days, apart from going to the woods, Jin Yang spent time refining tokens in space, and even ate in there.

Qingyan and the three of them ran around in the temple and on the mountain, and on the first day they explored almost every corner of the mountain.

The next day they were too lazy to run around, so the three of them just stayed in the temple, either in the wing (actually watching the Jinyang refining tokens in the space) or in front of the main hall watching the pilgrims coming and going.

They sat at the stone table in front of the main hall, watching the people who came to ask for fortune-telling or divination, and listening to the old Taoist interpreting fortune-telling or horoscopes for them.

The three of them took this as fun. With their eyesight and ears, they didn't have to go to the place where the lots were drawn to watch. They could see and hear it from the stone table.

In fact, they can also see it with their spiritual consciousness in the side room, but being locked in the room all the time does not seem to be a good feeling. It is better to go out and wander around.

And sitting there, you can see all kinds of people, and sometimes you will chat with people who come to offer incense, but of course they are all insignificant.

When they met the talkative person, he would tell them some recent events in the county. In just two days, they really heard a lot of news.

Based on what the other party said, when Qingyan used her spiritual consciousness to explore the surrounding areas and the county, she also discovered that the lottery in this temple was quite accurate.

Out of curiosity, she used her spiritual consciousness to follow a few people who asked for the signatures, and three of them quickly fulfilled what they said on the signatures.

For example, one of the young women and her mother came to inquire about their marriage. They must have looked at a family, and then they were a little unsure, so they came to draw lots to see if they were suitable. As a result, they drew a lot.

The signature reads: "When a declining tree meets the spring, a lonely boat encounters a strong wind. If you set out without support, you will not be able to prosper in everything."

Although the marriage was not explicitly mentioned, since everything is going wrong, the marriage is not much better. If you insist on entering into this marriage, it will probably be very bad.

So the old Taoist priest in charge of interpreting the signatures told the mother and daughter directly that they couldn't do what they asked for and it was best to give up.

The mother and daughter seemed to have made up their minds, solemnly handed over the coins they had signed, and went back.

Qingyan followed them with her consciousness, and saw that they went back to tell the woman's father about the situation, and then went to the matchmaker to promote the marriage that day.

It can be heard from their conversation that the two families are not already engaged, but that the man has just invited a matchmaker to come to discuss marriage, and they are considering it.

If you don't agree now, you can just tell the matchmaker directly. You don't need to go to the man's home to explain it clearly.

Out of curiosity, Qingyan followed the matchmaker to the house where the marriage was proposed, and found out that the man who proposed the marriage was plotting with his mother on how to get the girl's property in the future.    Well, this is still a Phoenix man!

She listened to the conversation between mother and son and found out that the woman they were scheming had a cloth shop. Although she was not rich, she had a small amount of assets. Moreover, she only had a daughter and no sons.

This man's family is very poor. Just look at his house. Except for the house where he lives, which contains some furniture, some books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones, the rest of the house can almost be described as bare walls.

However, this man did have the reputation of being a child, and his family's land and property were all spent just to study and take exams for him.

Judging from his age, he is not young, he must be in his twenties. In ancient times, he was considered an older leftover man.

And from the looks of it, he doesn't care about family matters and relies on his mother to make some money from embroidery.

But now my eyes have been damaged due to years of embroidery, and I can no longer embroider large pieces, so I can't make money, so I decided to work with the woman's family.

She wanted her son to find a family that would be destitute without a son, and finally found out about such a family. There was only one daughter in the family, and the parents were honest and seemed to be easier to deal with.

Although the family is considered to be a merchant, the man is not a bride-in-law. Marrying a merchant's daughter will have no impact on his future scientific career. The main reason is that the dowry will be generous and can support him to continue studying.

And there is no son in the family. Even if he cannot continue in high school, he thinks that the family property will be in his hands in two hundred years. A good life is enough.

Qingyan curled her lips, thinking that reading too many books meant that she had a bad mind.

For this kind of person, if he really succeeds in the imperial examination, he will not be a good official, and he will harm many people.

It is said that this branch of Nanyue Taoist Temple saved the girl's life.

Another thing that Qingyan also fulfilled was a man. He wanted to go to Fucheng to work with his neighbor's best friend, but there was still a widowed mother in the family, and he was the only son, so he was a little hesitant, and he didn't know what the future would be like. , so I came to ask for a signature.

Then he drew a boat and signed it, and the signature read: A small boat on the vast sea, the sea is vast and clear for thousands of miles. The small boat wants to cross the sea, but it is worried about the wind and waves in the middle. Where can I hide and wait for the waves to calm down.

It’s not that it’s dangerous to go out, but there will be twists and turns along the way, and it’s best not to go out during this period until the transfer is over.

When the man went back, he told his buddy that he would not go with him this time and would talk to him again when he had the chance.

As a result, his mother fell down while fetching water the next day and hit her head directly on the edge of the well. Her head was broken and bleeding, and she fainted immediately.

Fortunately, he was at home, otherwise, his mother would have probably died at home without anyone noticing.

This was discovered early, and he was sent to the hospital for prompt treatment. He saved his life and came back. He can be raised in the future and there will be no serious problem.

Of course, the results of seeking a fortune are not always bad, but such bad things will come true faster.

For example, today Qingyan met a woman who had good intentions, and she also came to seek marriage for her son.

Her son's marriage was not going well, and he had two engagements, but before they even got married, the woman died.

The first one died of illness. The woman had been in poor health since she was a child, but the family hid it and didn't tell anyone. The man was deceived.

The second one was when he went to the town market and met a mad cow and was gored to death by the cow.

This is really an accident, but being bumped into by the same person twice would have been a crime in ancient times.

After that, her son's marriage has not been going well. He is already twenty-three years old and has not yet said anything about getting married. The mother was so anxious that she came here to ask. If it really didn't work out, then she really had no choice but to be a bachelor. .

Unexpectedly, when I arrived, I asked for a signature. Yes, it was a signature, not a signature.

That's the one in the lottery tube above, and it's not easy to draw.

The one who came forward said: There are hundreds of flowers that have never been heard of, and willows have fallen by the river to form their own shade. Everything is destined by God, and there is no need to search for it thousands of miles away.

The meaning is very clear, marriage is destined by God, don't worry, it will come on its own.

Qingyan didn't expect that this would come true faster. The woman was very happy after asking for the signature. After all, everyone liked to hear the good words, and she even gave her more for signing the signature.

Then she went down the mountain happily. Her home was not far from here, in the surrounding villages.

As soon as she got home, her son's hind feet came back dripping wet without even entering the house. The woman quickly asked him to go back inside and change clothes. Being wet in this winter is no joke.

When he changed his clothes and came out, her ginger soup was boiled and she lit a brazier. While letting him drink the ginger soup to warm up the fire, she asked what was going on.

Her son replied that when he was passing by the river at the entrance of the village, he found a girl falling into the water and he rescued her.

In the end, he did not expect that the girl committed suicide and did not want to live anymore. She jumped into the river by herself. He persuaded her for a long time and even told her about her own experience before she was able to calm her down. Maybe he was even worse, so she no longer wanted to die.

The woman asked who it was, and she knew the reason. The girl's fiancé had just won the title of scholar some time ago. Someone better seemed to have taken a fancy to him, so she felt that this village girl was not good enough for him. He just broke off the engagement with the girl. The girl must have lost her mind and threw herself into the river.

Just like that, her son happened to meet her and rescued her.

The woman thought about the lottery she had just asked for, looked at her son again, slapped her thigh and said, "Sure enough, the marriage is destined by God! This wife just came to the door!"

Her idea is very simple. One of them cannot get married, and the other has been annulled. There is nothing wrong with them, so why not get together.

There must be physical contact when rescuing people, although it is not yet at the point where you have to take responsibility if you touch someone, otherwise you will lose your innocence.

There must be gossip like this, especially if it is not good for the woman.

So she told her son about her plan, and when she saw that he didn't reject it and was a little embarrassed, she knew that he also had the same intention, so she took her son to the girl's house that day.

Since you have done something that hinders someone else's innocence, you have to show an attitude. If the other party is not willing, forget it. If the other party is willing, your daughter-in-law will be safe.
