Seeing that he scared everyone, Yuchi Zhenjin hurriedly said: "Everyone, don't be afraid, I'm a wandering Taoist priest, and when I see everyone gathered here, I'll come and have a look!"

The young man complained, "Why are you walking so silently, you scared me to death!"

The old man who was called the third uncle reprimanded the young man: "Third son, don't be unreasonable!" Then he turned to look at Yuchi Zhenjin and asked, "I don't know where the Taoist priest came from! Is there something wrong with our village?"

People nowadays have a kind of awe for monks and Taoists, but because of the chaos of the war, the old people also have a heart of vigilance!

Yuchi Zhenjin replied with a smile: "Elder, don't think too much, I traveled around, came from Renjia Town in the morning, and wanted to rest in the village at noon, but I saw a group of people gathered here, so I came here out of curiosity, not wanting to scare It's brother!"

The young man felt ashamed just now and said bluntly: "Who am I scared! I just want to remind everyone!"

The old man looked at Yuchi Zhenjin as not like a bad guy, and since he had a donkey himself, they wouldn't be afraid even if a bad guy went to the village.Judging by Yuchi Zhenjin's attire, he is indeed a Taoist!Hearing the young man's impoliteness, he said, "Third son,"

Then he smiled at Yuchi Zhenjin and said, "It's a coincidence that you came, Daoist, we are worrying about the tree in front of us!" Pointing to the big willow tree, he continued: "This big willow tree has been in our village cemetery for more than 200 years. , but recently there have been a lot of evil things in this tree. Some people saw children playing on the tree at night, and some people saw a dead woman swinging on the tree. A few days ago, some young people who came back late did not return to the village and directly lay on the tree. After one night, I got sick when I went back, and it’s not good now! We were also afraid that something would happen again. After a discussion, the villagers decided to saw the big tree. It was fine when sawing, and nothing happened. It didn’t even fall! We burned the paper money one by one, but it was still useless.” There was still a slightly scared expression on his face!The people in the circle were also a little scared!

Yuchi Zhenjin stepped forward and patted the tree trunk, then lowered his head to look at the saw cut!Indeed, the entire trunk has been sawn through!Seeing Yuchi Zhenjin sizing up the big tree, the old man stepped forward and said cautiously: "Master Dao, I see that you are an expert, do you know what's going on?"

Yuchi Zhenjin smiled and replied: "Don't be nervous, the old man, it's nothing serious! I wonder if there is an old carpenter in the village who borrowed the old carpenter's ax and cut three axes on each side of this tree, and the tree will surely fall!" Yuchi Zhenjin instinctively The mace knocks down, but it is more of the attitude of the game world!

When the young man heard this, he said anxiously: "My third uncle is an old carpenter, you wait, I will go back to the village and fetch my third uncle's axe!" Then he ran to the village!

Before the old man could react, the young man ran back and couldn't help saying: "This third son is so impatient" and said to everyone: "Wait for the third son to bring the axe, don't be afraid if you have a good way Alright! Just do what the Taoist priest said."

Anyway, the young man has already gone back to get the axe, so you will know if it works if you come and try it!The old man is not afraid of Yuchi Zhenjin fooling him,

After a while, the young man ran over panting with an ax in hand!Yuchi Zhenjin asked the old man to hand the ax and let the old man do it himself, the effect would be even better!

The old man didn't touch, rolled up his sleeves, swung up his axe, and chopped three times around the sawn edge of the big tree. Yuchi Zhenjin let the crowd get out of the way, and as the last ax fell, the big tree fell down with a bang!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the big tree fell. The big tree was already a monster, but it was strange and frightening that it would not fall down after sawing it down!When the young man saw the big tree fall, he shouted, "It's falling!"

Seeing the big tree fall, the old man hurried over to Yuchi Zhenjin and said, "The Taoist priest is really capable! Come and sit down in the village and have a simple meal!" Then he took Yuchi Zhenjin and walked into the village Go, everyone is behind to support!

The village is not big, with thirty or forty households, all of which are adobe thatched houses. When the villagers saw the supporters, who looked like Taoists, they all came out to watch the fun!The old man directly took Yuchi Zhenjin back to his home!And let the old woman kill a chicken to entertain Yuchi Zhenjin!

Yuchi Zhenjin's kindness was difficult but he had to let the old man come, and several women from the neighbors came to help cook, and the young man named Sanzi even brought some eggs to treat Yuchi Zhenjin at home!

The old man let Yuchi Zhenjin into the house and sat on the kang!After brewing tea, the young man and the tree fellers also stood underground listening to the words of Yuchi Zhenjin and the old man, and there were also people lying on the window sill outside to watch the fun!

A few children ran into the house and were chattering and playing. The old man rolled his eyes and said, "Whose child, hurry up and take it back! I'm disturbing you so much that an expert can smack your father's ass!" The old man saw that he was the person in charge of the village!

Yuchi Zhenjin smiled and said that it’s okay, it’s okay, and he stretched out his hand to recruit a few children, picked up the yellow leather gourd and poured a handful of candied dried fruits into each child’s hand. The children saw the delicious food that Yuchi Zhenjin gave them The nose is bubbling.

But the people around were surprised. The gourd had no mouth and something poured out. Some candied fruit was bigger than the neck of the gourd!The old man stood up in shock and shouted to the gods, the adult who came in to lead the child actually wanted to kneel down, Yuchi Zhenjin quickly helped him up, said: "Don't do that," and patted the child's head again!

The adults quickly thanked Yuchi Zhenjin and took the child out. At this time, the food was ready!The spectators were also coaxed away by the old man, and Yuchi Zhenjin asked the third son of Zhishuang to stay for dinner, and everyone envied him!The old man put a kang table, let Yuchi Zhenjin sit in the main seat, and he and his sons sat on the two sides to accompany him!Before serving the table, the old man pulled the third son out and repeatedly told him not to talk nonsense!

The dishes came up, green stir-fried vegetables, yellow scrambled eggs, cold bitter gourd, piled with red peppers and scallions, and a large earthenware bowl filled with freshly cooked hen nuggets.There is also a jar of homemade rice wine!

Yuchi Zhenjin saw that he didn't move his chopsticks, neither the old nor the young!He just smiled and said: "Don't be polite, my name is Yuchi Zhenjin, you can call me Yuchi!" Then he moved his chopsticks!

The old man quickly shook his head and said: "That's not acceptable, the Taoist priest is a fairy who descended to earth, we should call him the Taoist priest!"

Yuchi Zhenjin smiled and did not argue with the old man, pointed to the chicken nuggets in the earthen bowl and said to the third son, "Eat it!" The third son looked at the chicken nuggets and swallowed, Yuchi Zhenjin directly clamped a chicken leg It's in his bowl!The third son looked at the old man, who turned his eyes wide and said, "If the Taoist priest tells you to eat, you can eat it. Why are you looking at me!"

The third son Gao Xin picked up the chicken nuggets and asked while eating: "Master Dao, why did we saw through that big tree and it didn't fall down! Is there really a ghost on the tree?" The old man heard three The son asked this and listened with his ears sideways!The women tidying up outside also secretly listened behind the door curtain!
