Chapter 229 I want to become a disciple(1/2)
With the news from the waiter, Guan Zu's thoughts immediately became intense.
There are two Taoist priests at a time, so one of them must be a little bit more capable, right? He doesn’t have to be as powerful as the wild Qinghai master, but if he has one or two unique skills, Guan Zu will recognize it.
So early the next morning, he asked the waiter to help him find a carriage that knew the road and prepared to set off in a special car.
Because in Guan Zu's understanding, everyone who lives in Yizhuang is generally an expert.
After all, in this world, there is basically no difference between ordinary people living in Yizhuang and seeking death.
Soon, after Guan Zu finished washing, he heard the waiter coming to his small courtyard.
"Guan Daguan, I have found the carriage you want for you. It will definitely be fast and stable."
Guan Zu often asked the waiter in the shop to help him find out information, and because he spent a lot of money, the waiter in the shop was very enthusiastic towards him.
When I heard that the carriage had arrived, I threw a few cents to the waiter and followed him to the carriage with a smile.
When the coachman saw the waiter bringing the guests out, he quickly jumped out of the carriage, took out his footstool and bent down to greet them.
When Guan Zu saw the driver, he was also stunned for a moment.
In fact, this coachman's appearance was too familiar to him.
In the previous world, he had already encountered this face twice.
Although Lian Haolong, Wang Bao, and the current coachman look much younger than the two of them, they are still just as fat.
"This is Zhang DaDa. In our car dealership, his car is the fastest and most stable!"
The waiter quickly introduced him, and quietly winked at Zhang DaDa, and then introduced Guan Zu.
"Zhang DaDa, this is a senior official from Guan Dynasty. He is a distinguished guest. You must serve him well!"
Zhang Bingdao saw that Guan Zu was so majestic and even more luxurious, so he didn't dare to neglect him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help Guan Zu wait for the bus.
When Guan Zu heard that the coachman's name was Zhang Dashuai, his story immediately came to mind.
This story is quite familiar to Guan Zu, as it is one of the shadows of his childhood.
But at this time, he was not so scared, but instead became excited.
All because in this bold story, there was indeed a master in the yizhuang outside the city where he lived.
"It seems that this trip will definitely be fruitful!" Guan Zu was in a good mood when he thought of this. He looked back at the waiter and joked.
"When you introduce me in the future, don't call me a senior official. You have to call me Mr. Guan. And I must emphasize that Mr. Guan is not short of money! Hahaha!"
After saying that, Guan Zu bent down and got into Zhang Bingdao's carriage.
The carriage is quite spacious, and it can be seen that it is specially used to pull people.
Not only is it very neat and tidy, but there are also soft cushions on the seats, making it quite comfortable to sit on. It should be a Didi special car in this world.
"Bold, look how fast and steady you drive the carriage. How long have you been doing this?"
The carriage started to move. Although it was not as good as the taxis of later generations, Zhang DaDa was indeed the best in this world in driving the carriage without too many bumps.
Guan Zu also took the opportunity to chat with Zhang DaDa, trying to find out how far his story went.
While Zhang DaDa was driving the carriage, he was thinking about what the waiter had said to him before. This was a big customer today, and if he served him well, he would definitely receive a reward.
The waiter and he were childhood friends, and originally the two families had similar lives.
But recently, Zhang DaDa found that his family's life had suddenly improved, and the reason was this guest.
So after hearing Guan Zu's words, Zhang Dadan immediately became alert and responded carefully.
"I learned how to drive a carriage when I was working for a car dealer. Now that I have just married a wife, I simply borrowed money to buy my own carriage so that I can earn more while running."
There was quite a lot of information in Zhang DaDa's words, and Guan Zu understood it immediately.
This guy probably hasn't become Mr. Tan's full-time driver yet. As for whether his wife and Mr. Tan have hooked up, it's hard to tell.
But the story probably hasn’t started yet, and it’s still too late.
Along the way, Guan Zu chatted with Zhang Bingdao from time to time. It didn't take much time for twenty miles, and the carriage arrived.
"Master Guan, I wonder why you came to Yizhuang? I heard people say that this place is quite evil. Only people who die violently will be sent here."
Zhang boldly helped Guan Zu out of the car and reminded him in a low voice.
Guan Zu smiled, and it was difficult to say that he was here to learn from his master.
He threw a few cents to Zhang DaDa as a tip: "Wait for me outside and I'll be back as soon as I go."
After saying that, Guan Zu walked into Yizhuang.
The layout here can be said to be in ruins. The entire courtyard wall has collapsed to only a person's waist.
The yard has not been tidied up much, and weeds have grown tall through the gaps between the stone slabs on the ground.
Facing the courtyard is the main house of Yi Zhuang. If nothing else, it should be the place where the body is parked and the memorial tablet is placed.
This is also the bulk of Yi Zhuang's income. Many people who died unjustly and in vain cannot enter the ancestral hall, so they can only ask people from Yi Zhuang to collect it for them, and then pay for the entire spiritual place in Yi Zhuang, which can give them some incense.
But now, there is a big lock on the door of the main house, which is firmly locked, proving that the owner is probably not at home.
Guan Zu didn't give up and knocked on the door hard, hoping that the people here just had something to do temporarily and were nearby, so they could come out and answer him when they heard the knock on the door.
Unfortunately, he waited at the door for more than an hour and saw no movement, so he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
At this time, Zhang boldly walked into the courtyard of Yizhuang from outside, holding a wooden board in his hand.
"Master Guan, I just saw this when I was tying the carriage. I'm afraid the Taoist priest is not at home."
As he spoke, he raised the wooden board in his hand towards Guan Zu.
You can see the crooked writing on it, "I'll be out for five days, collecting the body for someone else!" The signature is exactly today's date.
It seemed that Guan Zu was just one step away from Taoist Xu.
"Where did you find this brand?"
"It's right at the gate, but it may have been blown down by the north wind and fell in the grass. I only found it when I went to tie the horse."
"It seems we are destined to be together! Let's go back!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Guan Zu sighed helplessly, but he didn't feel too uncomfortable.
After all, there was another choice, but he felt that in the original story, Master Xu was more honest and decent, so he came to him first.
Now that I missed it, I might as well go back to the city to find Xu Zhenren’s senior brother, Qian Zhenren.
Speaking of which, although Qian Zhenren is a villain in the story, Guan Zu quite likes his style of collecting money and doing things.
I'm afraid of meeting a real master who has nothing in common. As long as you like money, it's too simple.
The thing Guan Zu is most in need of now is money. It feels quite comfortable to think about being able to solve problems with money.
It's just that Qian Zhenren is always a villain, and his character is not very strong.
In the original story, he fought with his junior apprentice Xu Zhenren, and not only did the apprentice become his tool, but when he got the upper hand, he even arranged for his employer to do it.
Guan Zu was worried that if one day he got high and made arrangements for himself, it would be uneconomical.
But now that Zhenren Xu can't be found, he has no choice but to settle for the next best thing.
At least the plot hasn't started yet. At worst, I learned my skills and stayed away immediately to avoid the whirlpool inside.
And the center of this vortex is Zhang DaDa.
Thinking of this, Guan Zu started chatting with Zhang DaDa again.
During the process, Guan Zu said intentionally or unintentionally that he lacked a follower, and it would be perfect if he could have a carriage.
Zhang boldly seized the opportunity and directly recommended himself.
So when the time came in the afternoon and the carriage stopped at Guan Zu's courtyard, Zhang Dadan had successfully passed the interview and became Guan Zu's driver, attendant and bodyguard.
As for the salary, Zhang Bingdao grinned all the way, completely unable to extricate himself.
Since he was going to see Master Qian, Guan Zuke had to prepare in advance.
He still remembered that this real Qian was called Qian Kai, and he was a man who was blind to money.
So this time he specially brought a large box full of gold ingots, at least a hundred taels.
There were also other miscellaneous gifts, which filled Zhang Bingdao's carriage.
This time, he was going to use money to crush Master Qian's legs, and he was willing to give up his ability to hold the bottom of the box.
Arriving in front of Qian Zhenren's shop, Guan Zu found that Qian Zhenren's life might not be as good as that of his junior brother who lived in Yizhuang.
The two masters and apprentices were crowded into a room of less than ten square meters.
This is not only their residence, but also Qian Zhenren's shop. In addition to their daily necessities, it is also filled with various paper towels and paper money.
When Guan Zu walked into the shop, he saw that opposite the door of the shop, Zhenren Qian was meditating, while his disciples were imitating the same pattern.
However, no matter how Guan Zu looked at it, he felt that the probability of this apprentice fainting from hunger was much higher than falling asleep.
It was already almost dinner time in the afternoon, but judging from the looks of the master and apprentice, it seemed that they wanted to use sleep to ward off hunger.
Guan Zu smiled happily when he saw this scene.
