Chapter 2 Door-to-door business
The mountain is 800 meters high, and the Taoist temple is built on the top of the mountain, so lonely and pitiful.
This mountain is not a famous mountain, and the Taoist temple does not even have a name.
Chen Yang remembered that two years ago, a crew made a ghost movie and came here to pick scenes.
That time, the scenery was drawn, which added some popularity to the Taoist temple, but it only lasted for a few days.
At first, it is difficult to walk on the mountain road, and no one wants to climb a barren mountain with wild beasts everywhere.
Secondly, it is also the most fundamental, the Taoist temple has little ornamentality.
It is just an ancient building with a structure that is not as good as the Sihe Courtyard.
Just as Chen Yang walked out a few meters away, he saw a group of three people walking towards him panting.
"Isn't it that I came to the Taoist temple to burn incense?"
"Strange, I'm hitting a ghost in broad daylight, right?"
"Is there anyone here in this broken Taoist temple?"
Those people came over and a wealthy middle-aged man in the lead said loudly: "Little Taoist, is Taoist Lin Yangxing here?"
Chen Yang shook his head: "Let's go."
"Leave?" The middle-aged man frowned, and the person behind him shouted: "Old Zhou, you call me before you come, and ask. If you are not at home, isn't this a waste of time?"
"This broken place is really erratic. There is not even a cable car. I'm so tired of climbing."
All three are male, all in their forties, one is rounder than the other.
The clothes are all brand-name and the sneakers under her feet are all from Nike. She looks quite rich at first glance.
"Little Taoist priest, where did Taoist Lin Yangxing go? When did he leave? When did he come back?" asked the middle-aged man three times.
Chen Yang pointed to the back mountain: "It's just buried there, do you want to go and sing incense sticks?"
"ah?"
The three of them were a little stunned when they heard this.
After a long time, the man said, "Master Lin... has passed away?"
Chen Yang was even more speechless than him, thinking that the old man has passed away for two years, is your village connected to the Internet?
Sure enough, human feelings are as thin as paper.
Come if you need it, and you won't contact you for a few years.
Judging from their appearance, Chen Yang knew their purpose.
Maybe I wanted to ask the old man to go down the mountain to do rituals.
This kind of thing is very common.
There is no incense in Taoist temples, so the old man can only take some rituals to barely maintain his life.
Moreover, the old man was kind-hearted and like a Virgin. In addition to daily expenses, the money he saved also helped several students.
As for Chen Yang, his parents would send money every once in a while, and they were not hungry.
"Old Zhou, you are so unreliable."
"It's a waste of time, a waste of time."
"What Taoist priests are you looking for? I know a master who is very good at Buddhism. Let's go and find that master."
The two of them complained for a while, turned around and left.
Chen Yang thought to himself that the business he got cannot just run away like this.
But he was about to speak and keep the other party.
The system suddenly said: "Host, don't speak."
Chen Yang was stunned: "Why?"
The system said: "Tao follows nature. Although the Taoist sect does not pay much attention to the rules, the Taoist sect has the dignity of the Taoist sect. Opportunities and creations are right in front of them. If they do not cherish them, it means that they have no fate with the Taoist sect, and whether they are life or death has nothing to do with the Taoist sect."
Chen Yang was stunned: "You mean, they may die?"
The system said: "Their black eyebrows are lingering, which is a bloody disaster. The disaster will come to the southeast. If there are less than three days, they will die."
"Damn!" Chen Yang said: "Then will you still be willing to save me if you see death?"
The system said: "If you and I don't want to save you, you missed the opportunity and failed to grasp your destiny. What does life and death have to do with you and me?"
Chen Yang's heart: "…%@*..."
Damn, are all Taoist gods so awesome?
Chen Yang understood that for the development of Maodao Sect, he was not as good as a monk.
The concepts are different.
The monks talk to you kindly, but after changing the system, they say a few complaints, and they just don’t care about their lives or death.
Damn, are you still making money?
Our goal is to promote Taoism and revitalize Taoism!
Chen Yang originally felt that he had the chance to become an immortal.
Who knows that the system has this urine nature?
It's over, I will never become an immortal in this life.
There is no need to go down the mountain, you will definitely not be able to make a profit of one million.
If you have the ability but don’t give me a platform to show off, what’s the point of being alive?
Chen Yang tried to struggle and said, "System, these people are obviously big fat pigs, fat and fat. Besides, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Do you really want to save it?"
The system said lightly: "Do you know the difference between Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism?"
"The Tao follows the heavens, and the objective view of reality without human intervention. The Confucians actively change reality, even if they are in a chariot. Buddhism is empty, passively escapes reality, seeking the purity of the six senses, and all the four elements are empty."
Chen Yang heard this and said nothing.
I can see that you are the master. OK, I can't argue with you, you are awesome.
The systemic Tao is completely different from the old man’s Tao that taught Chen Yang.
The old man is kind-hearted, but the system is as cold as a machine.
"Little Taoist priest, take this money and give Taoist priest Lin two incense sticks for me." The fat Lao Zhou took out a thick envelope from his arms and handed it to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang was stunned, but did not pick him up.
"Why donor doesn't go by himself?"
Lao Zhou was a little hesitant, and the friend behind him shouted: "Old Zhou, are you going to leave? Hurry up, if you go down the mountain later, it will be dark."
"Wait, I'll go and take incense sticks. Master Lin has helped me before. Since he's here, he can't just leave."
Old Zhou shook his head and said, "Little Taoist, please take me over."
"Come with me."
Chen Yang made a little change in this fat man.
He said in his heart: "System, I think what you said is wrong."
Without waiting for the system to reply, Chen Yang continued: "The old man once taught me that the Taoist philosophy of handling things should be objective and fair, with clear grudges, and different responses should be given according to the different objective things. Do you agree?"
The system said: "That's it."
Chen Yang said: "The two people who spoke rudely are those who have nothing to do with this fat man, right?"
"yes."
"He came here, and even though he knew that the old man had passed away, he still burned incense and kept money because the old man had helped him. He also received the favor of Taoism, so he adhered to the principle of Taoism, otherwise he would not have come today."
The system said: "What does the host want to say?"
"What I want to say is that those two people have bad attitudes, so don't worry about their life or death. But this fat man is different. He comes from asking for something, but because the old man passed away, he has nowhere to ask for it. But if you ask me not to say a word and I don't speak, how can he know that I can help him? Could you expect a mortal to have supernatural powers and can see that I am extraordinary?"
"With this ability, why are they here for?"
The system was silent for two seconds and said, "What do the host want to do?"
"Just leave it alone." Chen Yang hummed softly in his heart, if you don't make money, I'm not stupid if you are stupid.
