Chapter 151: Changes in Xuanzhen Temple
Besides, Xuanzhen Temple has a new regulation. What is it?
That is, the master of the temple took in all the girls in that refugee area as lay disciples.
So, starting from some day, people would see a small team of people fetching water in the temple every morning, starting from the temple and going to the mountain stream behind to fetch clean water from the mountains.
They were all children, the youngest was only five or six years old, and the oldest looked only twelve or thirteen.
Everyone had their hair tied up and wore green clothes, and in their hands they either carried or shouldered a jar for fetching water according to their ability.
Early in the morning, they set out early to fetch water from the mountains.
Then send them to the place where refugees gathered before.
Now it has been converted into a teahouse in the temple, a place for people to rest.
Go there to deliver water.
The teahouse was also manned by a couple who were former refugees, and all of this was arranged by Xuanzhen Temple.
So people can go to the temple to burn incense again.
At the same time, people from far and near can take a break in the teahouse on their way, drink a cup of tea, and eat a bowl of hot noodles.
Noodles cost money, but tea is free. However, there is a donation box next to it where you can put money yourself.
The place soon became a haunt of the passing crowd.
Not only is there free tea here, but there are also vegetarian noodles.
After this place was converted into a teahouse, it started selling vegetarian noodles, which were made with clear spring water from the mountain stream brought by a little Taoist boy.
The taste is very unique. After eating it, it feels like a fire is slowly rising in the stomach, which warms the stomach.
Then look at those innocent children pouring the clean water in their hands into the special water tank one by one.
People's hearts seemed to be purified.
Yes, this is a kitchen without partitions. People can see the couple washing your hands and kneading the dough for you, then pouring clear soup on each bowl and adding seasoned side dishes.
That feeling is...it is indeed from Taoism, it is pure and superior!
I feel that even eating a bowl of noodles is a good deed for myself.
In addition, those girls would only fetch water for passers-by in the early morning, and would practice dancing in the temple during the day.
The Taoist priest in the temple said that it was a sword dance specially performed for sacrifice and blessing.
However, usually people are not allowed to see it.
I heard that this can only be offered during some Taoist activities or when there are Taoist ceremonies for good people.
As a result, the nobles in the city had various understandings of the changes in Xuanzhen Temple.
But overall it was good, and people resumed their previous offerings to Xuanzhen Temple.
Over the past ten days, Qin Qiong has been staying in the temple, because she is in charge of many of the arrangements here.
Even the children's sword dance was choreographed and directed by her.
When talking about this sword dance, we cannot help but talk about the inheritance of Chinese martial arts.
Chinese martial arts have a long history and hundreds of schools of thought flourish.
Later, during the Tang Dynasty, all martial arts in the world came under the control of Shaolin, which integrated martial arts from various schools on a large scale.
This is how Shaolin Changquan came into being.
Since the 20th century, many people in China have begun to practice martial arts.
The General Administration of Sport of China has also vigorously promoted it and applied for martial arts as an event in various competitions.
However, if it is traditional boxing that focuses on strength and techniques, then it lacks entertainment value.
Therefore, Changquan came into people's attention.
It not only requires solid skills, but also is very ornamental and looks good.
But it does not focus on actual combat. It is especially suitable for beginners.
Qin Qiong learned martial arts from his father since he was a child, so he is of course very good at this kind of technical kung fu.
So, she quickly organized a collective sword formation of twenty-four people.
It is very suitable for various performances.
Qin Qiong personally felt that his sword formation could compete with the other person's "Thousand-Armed Guanyin".
I'm really sorry!
Shame on you! Shame on you!
These days, General Xiao Li accompanied Madam Li back to Shangjing City.
On the one hand, it is for the sake of Madam Li’s health, and on the other hand, we also have to prepare for Madam Li’s birthday banquet.
Another thing is to go to the princess's mansion to pick someone up.
To build the road up the mountain, the stonemasons from the family at the foot of the mountain were used.
Others can help, but of course they can’t start the work in such a haphazard manner.
Xiaoyan first went back to the city to ask the princess for help, and then invited a capable adult from the Ministry of Works to plan the mountain road, and then construction would begin.
At the same time, trees and grass need to be planted on the mountain.
If it just requires some tidying up, the gardeners from various prefectures can do the job.
However, Qin Qiong wanted to plant some fruit trees, hoping that he would be able to harvest something from the mountain in the future.
This is not something that can be done by just one or two gardeners.
In the end, the princess stepped up and hired someone to buy saplings and grass seeds.
Therefore, General Xiaoli had to wait in the city for these people and things to arrive, and then be responsible for sending them to the "Ten-Li Peach Blossom Land".
“Ten Miles of Peach Blossom Land” sounds nice, right?
This is the name Qin Qiong gave to the barren mountain.
Xiaoyan and the others thought it was a bit strange to have such a name for a mountain, but Taoist Ji'an thought it was a good name.
Madam Li also thought it was a good idea, so the name became popular.
Qin Qiong personally felt that Taoist Ji'an was doing her a favor, while Madam Li was just being a little womanist.
Clearing the mountains and planting trees, as well as feeding so many people, is certainly not a small expense.
Unexpectedly, Taoist Master Ji'an actually offered to sell the fertile land in the temple as a supplement to the income.
Of course this won't work.
So the young master and General Xiaoli went back to the city to borrow money.
Taoist Priest Ji'an expressed his deep gratitude for this and promised that the first batch of investment after the "Ji'an Society" raises funds at the end of the year will be placed here in Shili Taoyuan.
In this way, after Qin Qiong had been busy in the temple for more than ten days, Ye Luo came back.
Before this, after Qin Qiong finished talking with Mr. Zhao that day, she told him to think about how to take revenge and then get back to her.
In less than two days, Mr. Zhao found the young master and Qin Qiong and expressed his willingness to follow the young master for life. Regarding revenge, he would follow the young master's arrangements.
So, Qin Qiong asked Ye Luo to dress up and go out to investigate the Xian family.
There is also the son-in-law of the Xian family who is an official.
As soon as Ye Luo came back, the young master gathered everyone, including Mr. Zhao, to listen to what Ye Luo saw and heard during this trip.
After listening to it...the Xian family has really gone to extremes.
Now in Ji'an Town, no one does not hate the Xian family when they mention them, and no one does not fear them.
The Zhao family's extermination of the Xian family was not the most sensational thing, because it was not the first time such a thing happened.
It’s just that this is the first case involving a wealthy family like the Zhao family.
One of the manifestations of the Xian family's power in the local area is that they have now bought all the land under the jurisdiction of Ji'an Town.
Even many land owners were sentenced to become tenants of the Xian family without knowing it.
If anyone refused to obey, they would be arrested directly, with men killed and women sold.
All the merchants in the town gave 20% of their business to the Xian family for free.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to stay in this town of Ji’an.
Zhao Yuanzhe was a scholar and didn't know anything about his family's business, so he thought his family was also a prominent figure. In fact...
