Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

Today was not the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month, and he came early. There was no one else in Cihang Temple except the female Taoist priests in the temple.

Liang Bao told his confidants to wait in the carriage. He put on a hood and covered half of his face with a cloth, then went into the temple with the silver bills.

He is definitely not a stupid person since he has climbed to his current position.

The magical dew in Cihang Temple must have been regarded as a treasure by countless dignitaries, who would flock to it.

In a place like this, if you try to use your power to suppress others, you will end up with nothing.

Only by abiding by the rules and leaving a good impression in Cihang Temple can you achieve your goals and avoid attracting too much attention.

Along the way, he burned incense and paid homage to the statues in several halls. Then he found a Taoist priest and told her that she wanted to donate one thousand taels of silver to the temple.

"Please wait for a moment, believer. I will go and report to the hall master."

Soon, a Taoist woman wearing a Taoist robe and with a plain face but beautiful appearance came over and bowed to him in a peaceful manner.

"This is the head of our reception hall, Taoist Master Huiyun."

The Kun Dao introduced it earlier.

Liang Bao did not look down on her just because she looked very young. Instead, he politely returned the greeting.

"Master Huiyun."

Huiyun had already heard from the temple master that the inner garrison of Nandu City would most likely come in the next few days.

Seeing that the person in front of him was hiding his head and showing his tail, even if he tried his best to be careful, his voice was not as deep as that of an ordinary man, and there was an indescribable faint odor on his body.

She immediately determined the identity of the person in front of her.

"May I know, my temple only accepts five-element offerings, and does not accept incense money?"

Liang Bao really didn't know much, so he asked humbly:

"Excuse me, Taoist priest, how should we prepare the five elements offerings?"

Huiyun told him the requirements of the five elements offerings, and he was very easy to talk to:

"In that case, I will go back and exchange the thousand taels of silver for the five elements offerings before coming back."

"Wait a minute, believer." Huiyun stopped him. "Believers have offered one thousand taels. I guess you must have heard something and want to ask me for help, right?"

Liang Bao was somewhat surprised by the other party's directness, so he also said frankly:

"The Taoist priest is right."

Then he heard Taoist Master Huiyun say something that surprised him even more:

"I think the devotees do not know all the rules of my temple. The devotees should know that my temple is not a place that will grant all requests."

In order to show off their effectiveness, most Taoist temples and Buddhist monasteries claim that any prayer will be granted.

"What does the Taoist priest mean?"

Huiyun said:

"What I mean is that although my master is omnipotent and can cure all kinds of diseases and injuries in an instant, he will not agree to anyone's request. The offerings you send may be in vain."

"If there is not enough sincerity and determination, believers should find another way."

Although Kun Dao in front of him spoke in a calm tone, the meaning of his words revealed the arrogance of Cihang Temple.

But the fact that the other party dared to say this so clearly shows that he has no shortage of pilgrims and offerings.

Moreover, it can cure all kinds of diseases and injuries instantly, and the effect is immediate.

The fact that he dared to make such a boast showed that he was extremely capable, which made Liang Bao even more reluctant to give up easily.

"Master, to be honest, I want to ask for two bottles of Cihang Temple's elixir to cure my hidden illness. I wonder how I can achieve my wish?"

Huiyun's face was full of profoundness:

"The elixir is a treasure of our temple, and it is never given to believers easily. Besides, it depends on what kind of disease it is."

"Some diseases can be cured with one bottle of elixir, some require two bottles, and some cannot be cured with just elixir, and the temple master must personally take action."

This immediately made Liang Bao feel a little troubled.

His illness is equivalent to creating something out of nothing. No matter how you look at it, it is extremely difficult to cure. I'm afraid the master of the temple will have to take action personally.

If sending offerings doesn’t work, how else can one get what he wants?

More importantly, can the abbot of Cihang Temple cure his illness?

If you try to guess on your own, you'll be like a headless fly. It would be better to just ask directly.

So he lowered his voice and said:

"Master, when I was a merchant in my early years, I was captured by a group of cruel bandits and my roots were cut off. Now I have suffered for many years and have no descendants. If your temple can relieve my worries, I am willing to give away all my wealth."

He spoke cryptically. This Taoist Master Huiyun was not ignorant or shy like other women. She always had a calm expression on her face.

When he finished speaking, she said firmly:

"This disease is the kind that requires the temple master to personally treat it. However, in the temple master's place, it is not a big deal. It will take less than half an hour to relieve your worries."

"Half an hour?"

Liang Bao was extremely shocked.

Even when he came here, he was holding on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that Cihang Temple might be able to turn him into a normal person.

But what he could imagine was that someone from outside the world would say some ambiguous words, and then make him take the elixir, wait for several months or even a year, and during this period constantly make him sacrifice money or force him to do things, before he could finally achieve his wish.

But the Taoist priest in front of him said so clearly that it would only take half an hour!

In such a short period of time, it will be immediately clear whether the disease can be cured or not. There is no possibility of deception.

The fact that this hall master dared to say such words shows the ability of the temple master.

As long as the abbot of Cihang Temple is willing to help him, he can become a normal person within half an hour!

Thinking of this, Liang Bao found it difficult to suppress his inner excitement and desire.

"Excuse me, Taoist priest, how can I ask the temple master to help me? If you can solve my problem, I am willing to offer all my wealth!"

He meant it sincerely.

If I could achieve my wish, it would be worth it even if I gave away all the money I had collected over the years.

However, Taoist Huiyun shook his head:

"Such a great skill cannot be bought with worldly money. Only the meritorious officials of Cihang Temple can receive this honor."

Liang Bao was also a smart man. After hearing this, his fiery heart cooled down a little.

If you want to achieve your wish, you must serve Cihang Temple and make great contributions.

This is indeed more than a fortune.

"It seems that Shanxin is still hesitant. Why don't you think it over before coming back?"

Taoist Huiyun said calmly, and then simply ordered Taoist Kun beside him to send him away, not caring at all about losing a believer like him.

After walking out of Cihang Temple, Liang Bao felt a little dazed.

After returning home, he asked people to investigate Cihang Temple again.

It is difficult to find anything on weekdays, but it will soon be the first day of the new year.

The people he sent discovered that early in the morning of that day, many women of extraordinary appearance went to burn incense and offer sacrifices.

During this period, other individual pilgrims were not allowed to enter the temple, and the subordinate only recognized the wife of Duke Dingguo among those people.

Not only that, some of the female servants spoke with accents from other surrounding prefectures, which shows that those female servants also came from other prefectures.

These people did not ride in carriages with family crests as usual, and their whereabouts were extremely secretive.

This discovery made Liang Bao make up his mind.

Even though Cihang Temple is a dangerous place, the wife of Duke Dingguo dared to set foot there, so there is no reason why he wouldn't dare.

On the third day of June, Liang Bao once again disguised himself and came to Cihang Temple, found Taoist Master Huiyun, and said respectfully:

"I am Liang Bao, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department. I am willing to serve the master of the temple at his whim. I hope you can help me solve my problems."

Taoist Huiyun smiled:

"Since Lord Liang is so frank, I will go and inform the temple master for you."
