Ye Qing held back his hand and casually looked around, with a group of people following behind.
At this moment, looking at the God Temple, I saw that the temple gate had been in disrepair for many years and had collapsed halfway. Within the three walls, I could faintly see that the clay statues of the two people in the middle were mottled and worn, and closer up, they were covered in moss.
Ye Qing saw a faint mist in the distance and thought to herself.
The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a gushing spring, let alone the help of a divine being. In the past, there was nothing significant and one's own strength was not yet strong. The divine being should not be blamed. Now, as a scholar with wealth in one's possession, one can repay it with a little.
Moreover, this place is close to Beimang Mountain, and the location of the shrine is particularly suitable for suppressing evil spirits. It is also appropriate to charge towards this area.
After a long while, Ye Qing let out a light sigh and turned around, saying, "Mr. Yu, when I was young, I received the help of a divine figure. Now I am preparing to help this divine figure repair the temple. You are a famous craftsman nearby, and you are very familiar with this area. Look at this temple, how much silver and labor do you need to repair it
Mr. Yu, with coarse cloth, thin cloth shoes, and a white beard, bowed and said, "Young master, you dare not call me that. Just call me Yu Laowu. I am ranked fifth at home
Ye Qing has now become a scholar, and her status has skyrocketed. Wherever she goes, she receives genuine respect and compliments from the bottom of her heart. This is no exception. Just as Mr. Yu thought about it, he said, "There are trees and stones nearby, many of which can be used locally. It won't cost much, just a hundred taels of silver. It's the statue inside. I don't know if it's made of mud or wood
One hundred taels of silver is too little, I'll give you two hundred taels of silver, "Ye Qing smiled slightly. He saw that this person was almost working for nothing, but he didn't want to accept it.
As for not wanting mud or wood, but wanting to sculpt a golden body, I'll give ten taels of gold. Are these all okay
Yes, yes, no problem. Don't worry, young master. It's all on us
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing lowered her jaw and said, "You are all old and have been working in this industry for countless years. With experience, I believe what you say. How about this? Today, you have followed me on a journey, so don't start work anymore. Rest well and start tomorrow morning. Just take a look at the structure today and have a clear idea in your heart
Hey, follow your instructions, "both of them responded.
After speaking these words, Ye Qing left the shrine and walked towards a rock. The sky darkened and the night breeze brought by dusk blew, making people feel a bit chilly. At this moment, bonfires were burning near the shrine, and thirty young and strong people were not afraid of the gloomy air. The smoke from the kitchen slowly rose.
On the stones, it can be seen that the roof of the shrine has a large hole that cannot block the rain. The statues inside have blurred their faces, and the entire shrine emits a desolate and desolate atmosphere.
But now, I have the ability to repair it, "Ye Qing looked at the dilapidated shrine and secretly thought to herself. At this moment, a trace of yin energy lingered, but as she approached her body, she was catalyzed by the blood red qi and blood.
San Yuan Zhen Huang is also a very good Taoist technique, but learning it will still solidify the foundation of the Dao. I have the Six Yang Diagram, which is required to reach its peak
However, with the Six Yang Diagram and the Small Martial Arts Classic, it really makes rapid progress and is truly the first classic of martial arts
The Great Change Martial Arts Scripture gathers all the strength of the day to collect, edit and revise, and gathers the essence of the martial artists. The Small Martial Arts Scripture is the essence of the Great Change Martial Arts Scripture. Ye Qing believes that if there is no supernatural interference in the world, this is the treasure of the martial artists.
The evolution history of traditional Chinese martial arts is only three to five hundred years, and it is still a sporadic martial art. How can it compare to the ultimate skill of mobilizing millions of people and refining them through countless trials and tribulations?
Unfortunately, in this world, the Dao and Fa are revealed to the world. The complete part of the Great Yi Wu Jing may not be available for viewing until the Juren, but scattered parts can be found in any county.
After exhaling a breath, Ye Qing smiled and no longer sighed. On Earth, technology mercilessly crushed the so-called divine martial arts, and Taoism also crushed everything.
This has nothing to do with good or evil, only power!
But at least at this stage, there is no conflict between the Six Yang Diagram and the Xiao Wu Jing. On the contrary, they complement each other, because the foundation now lies in the physical body.
Moreover, in this world where Taoism is manifested, as long as one obtains a status and spiritual energy to replace the so-called true qi, it is really too easy and fast. At least one year can be counted as ten years. I have a scholar status and a six yang diagram. Even if I cultivate the Little Martial Arts Sutra to its peak, it won't take me three years
Thinking about it, Ye Qing looked into the distance and was taken aback for a moment. He smiled and said, "I wonder why the evil energy hasn't reached its limit. It turns out that the divine beings have spirits and have already expelled the evil energy. I believe the construction of this temple must have gone smoothly
The next day, just as the dawn had fallen, bricklayers and carpenters were busy from top to bottom. After praying, they removed the statue and covered it with red cloth.
As for the original walls, they will be inspected piece by piece, and those that are useful can be repaired and reused, while those that are useless will be discarded.
There were also villagers jumping bricks in with baskets, and it was Ye Qing who paid. For every penny of silver he carried, hundreds of young and middle-aged people in the village were willing to contribute.
As for the wood, it will be cut down on site. Anyway, the village and county will not argue with a scholar about this' ownerless wood '.
On the fifth day, the basic structure of the entire shrine was built.
On the seventh day, the beams were finished and blue tiles were laid on.
On the eleventh day, all the ground was paved with blue bricks, and the golden statue outside was also invited in. The statue was solemn and majestic, as if a deity was living in it, making people look intimidated.
In three days, the wall will be built and no fierce beasts can break in. The two gates will be thick and sturdy, painted with vermilion paint.
In the last three days, everyone worked together and the three wing rooms were built, giving the entire shrine a brand new look without any signs of disrepair.
Young master, please bring incense to your head! "Mr. Yu put on his washed clothes today and bowed in front of Ye Qing, saying. At the same time, many craftsmen had joyful expressions on their faces. After finishing their work and offering incense, they could go back when they were clearing the money.
Ye Qing smiled and entered the shrine, where he saw his own sacrificial inscriptions carved on the left and right. A sacrificial inscription had already been placed on the altar. Of course, this was not the intention of these craftsmen, but he had already given instructions.
At this moment, he entered the main hall and stood in front of the statue, saying, "Since ancient times, there has been no country that has ever been destroyed. The general is loyal to your country, and the strong winds can be passed down through the ages. I have a heart of admiration for you. Please sit in the hall and receive incense
After speaking, he lit incense and plunged his hands into the furnace, but he didn't kneel. He just bowed deeply, which was considered a ritual. Suddenly, a burst of cheers came from behind, and the shrine was considered completed.
However, these people dared not offend anyone and lined up respectfully, offering incense one by one. Dozens of incense sticks were lit, and for a moment, the temple was surrounded by incense.
Returning to the back room, there was a plate covered with a red cloth on the table.
The repair of the shrine is completed, and you can go back now. Here are two hundred taels of silver, "Ye Qing sat on a chair and spoke slowly.
This temple has been renovated and rejuvenated, but there are few living people, giving it a sense of solemnity. Mr. Yu felt a bit restrained and quickly responded, "Thank you, young master
Quickly taking the plate over, he picked it up heavily and lifted it slightly to see that it was all five or two ingots of gold and silver. Seeing the real gold and silver in hand, Mr. Yu relaxed and smiled more sincerely, saying, "We'll go back after finishing the matter. If you have any instructions, please ask for them
There is one more thing. After the renovation of this temple, there are fifty acres of sloping fields near this valley, which I have also bought. It can be considered as a temple field. I have already told the county that it is exempt from taxes and does not require any money or food. I want to find a few people to guard it. The output of this temple field belongs to him, and I will take care of the incense offerings
And those who enter the mountains also have a place to rest, which is convenient for travel. What do you think about this matter? If you want it, send someone out. If you don't want it, I'll go find a fellow villager myself
Mr. Yu was taken aback. These fifty acres of sloping fields were very poor and did not yield much, but if they were exempt from taxes and without collecting money and grain, they would be even more abundant.
Thinking for a moment, he said, "Young master, if you mind, I have a son who has been crippled and has no livelihood. He came here to guard the incense
The little man is getting old, and he can't work as a craftsman for much time. In six months, the little man will come over to cook together. What do you think
If you have this heart, there's no problem, but if you want to come up, you have to come tomorrow. Go down! "Ye Qing didn't object and waved her hand.
These fifty acres of sloping fields were actually prepared for a case in the county, and he only paid a little over ten taels of silver to buy them. Of course, he didn't care.
Mr. Yu took the silver and returned, and the group of craftsmen followed suit. Gradually, there was no sound left and no one was around.
Ye Qing guarded the repaired temple and spent his first night there.
The night is deep, and there are howls of wolves in the distance. In the past, staying here for a night would have been terrifying, but now I don't need to. I'm patrolling and see that the wall is three meters high, where can any animals come in?
One person casually cooked some Congee, lit candles, drank Congee and looked at Jingyi, unconsciously felt sleepy, and went to sleep at the wooden couch.
It can be said that as expected, after some time, a vast expanse of white and a dense fog appeared. Ye Qing remained silent and stood there.
After a moment, the faint sound of horse hooves could be heard, dispelling the thick fog around. A golden carriage galloped out of the virtual air, with four black horses pulling the carriage, hooves treading on the Yin fire, and golden flames swirling around, accompanied by a rumbling sound.
The carriage stopped ten feet in front of Ye Qing, and a black armored general walked down from above, with a faint red flame in his eyes. He looked at Ye Qing and said, "The General wants to see you, come with me
Strangely enough, as soon as the carriage arrived, the thick fog around quickly dissipated and disappeared in a moment, revealing the true scene of this area.
The black mountains stretch endlessly, with faint shadows of people. The withered grass is the only decoration on the earth, and the black rivers flow with winding and small streams. These scenes in Ye Qing's heart suddenly woke him up.
This is the underworld!
Only in the underworld can this situation occur. There are countless cultivators in the Taoist gate who practice the downstream underworld, layer by layer. The first to third layers of the underworld are like this.
But the lower it goes, the more bizarre it becomes, breaking free from the constraints of the present world.
The Yang world is the central existence, and the farther away from the Yang world, the more detached from the influence of the present world, giving rise to an unknown existence. Although Ye Qing's previous life was not very profound, during a great tribulation, he once descended with a major cultivator to a deep place in the Dark earth, where unknown remains floated everywhere, seemingly abandoned.
Pianjiang looked at Ye Qing standing there until a dull roar from the horse pulled her thoughts back.
May I follow you! "Ye Qing bowed to the black armored general and got into the car with him.
