Talk about the world of mortals in detail

Chapter 136 The orthodox method

When the weather cleared and the danger passed, the ships on the canal began to lower all sails and sail quickly.

Yang Bencai came back from washing up at the stern and walked naturally towards Yi Shuyuan on the front deck. After last night, he felt that he and Mr. Yi were already friends.

But when I walked to the front deck, I found Yi Shuyuan asking Old Man Meng about something.

"The temple of Kaiyang Water God?"

Old Man Meng, who was lowering the mainsail to fix an angle, finished what he was doing and looked at Yi Shuyuan with some surprise.

"Mr. Yi, didn't you say you wouldn't rush for the exam?"

"I really don't want to rush for the exam, but I also want to know about the scenery along the way."

Yang Bencai had just come here, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but volunteered to speak.

"Dahe Temple, I've asked about it a long time ago. Boyungang River Temple, Kaiyang Grand Canal Head Temple, the best and most effective place for incense! It's just that the price of sesame oil is a bit expensive, but I'm ready. By the way. , Uncle Meng, will our boat stop there?"

Yang Bencai said and looked at Old Meng beside the mast. The latter smiled, nodded and looked at Yi Shuyuandao.

"Master Yang is right, the first temple of Kaiyang Grand Canal is in Boyungang."

As he spoke, Old Man Meng looked at Yang Ben before continuing.

"But the berths at Boyun Port are tight and the berth fees are relatively expensive. Although our ship needs to dock there to buy some food and supplies, it will not stop at Boyun Port. It should be parked seven or eight miles outside the port as usual. Xiaohe Village."

Yang Bencai was shocked when he heard this.

"Ah? Don't stop at Boyungang? How can this be possible! I have already prepared the money for sesame oil, and Boyungang is different. Boyungang is so prosperous, how can it not stop!"

Yang Bencai's voice rose a few degrees, and Yi Shuyuan grinned at the side, remembering Yang Bencai's words, "The money spent rushing to take the exam will be spent on the edge of the knife."

Old man Meng said jokingly on the side.

"Mr. Yang, Xiaohe Village is only seven or eight miles away from Boyungang, no more than ten miles away. If you are really pious, you can even walk there. Our boat will at least spend the night there."

Yang Bencai frowned and said nothing, which meant that he seemed to be seriously considering this possibility.

Yi Shuyuan looked towards the direction of Kaiyang Grand Canal.

"Uncle Meng, how many days does it take for our ship to travel?"

"That's early. It will take at least three days no matter what, and the weather has to be good. If it rains like just now, the boat won't be able to sail fast."

Hearing this, Yang Bencai became energetic again.

"Brother Yi, Uncle Meng, I couldn't see down there just now, but I could hear it. Did we almost get into a boat accident? Did we hit it or not? No one was in trouble, right?"

"We didn't hit it. It was the boat behind us. It was hanging very high. When it rains heavily, there might be eddies under the water. It just happened."

As he spoke, Old Man Meng glanced at Yi Shuyuan again, who was already looking in front of the Kaiyang Canal.

Mr. Yi is called "Kaiyang Water God"? Don’t ordinary people call him River God? This is such a strange name.

"Hey, keep talking!"

Yang Bencai reminded him, and Old Meng came back to his senses.

"Oh, just now, the rain was too heavy. Although the two ships behind were staggered, the big ship somehow stopped."

While Old Man Meng was talking, other passengers in the cabin had also come out for air and gathered around them. Yi Shuyuan walked away a few steps and returned to the place near the bow.

Kaiyang Water Temple, Boyungang?

Yi Shuyuan looked at the river in a trance for a while, and then Yang Bencai came over.

"Brother Yi, Brother Yi, it was really dangerous back there just now. Did you see it? The ship was almost destroyed and everyone was killed! But the ship was fine and the sky cleared up immediately. It was really an eye-opener."

Yi Shuyuan smiled at Yang Bencai.

"Yes, I didn't get a good rest last night. Now I want to go back and catch up on my sleep. Brother Yang, please help yourself."

After saying that, Yi Shuyuan cupped his hands and walked towards the cabin. Yang Ben subconsciously returned the salute. After regaining consciousness, he couldn't help but muttered: "You didn't sleep well and you got up so early?"

Yi Shuyuan returned to his own corner in the warehouse, a blanket flew out of his sleeves and placed it on the floor, then lay down on his side.

Not long after lying down, Yi Shuyuan's breathing became even.

The next moment, a vague human figure seemed to escape from the body, and when it reached the outside of the ship, it turned into an invisible breeze blowing out of the cabin and blowing along the river to the distance of the ship.

Yi Shuyuan transformed his body into a quilt, which was already tangible and qualitative. It would be difficult for people with lower moral standards than him to see this.

At this moment, Yi Shuyuan was traveling very fast against the wind.

Now that his cultivation level has been improved several times and he has achieved enlightenment several times, even if it is just an ordinary wind control, Yi Shuyuan's ability to use it is still different from what he used to be.

The scenery in the middle of the river and along the coast was quickly passing behind him. It only took Yi Shuyuan just half an hour to reach the place where it would take three days of sailing with a favorable wind for a large ship.

Although he was not familiar with the terrain of the entire territory, he only needed to go along the Kaiyang Grand Canal, and Lu Yuwei could not leave the water area, so it was not convenient for Yi Shuyuan to fly directly, and a strong wind was always close to the water.

This resulted in people on many large and small boats along the way suddenly feeling a strong gust of wind blowing by, causing their bodies to sway slightly, but there was no follow-up.

After flying along the waterway for a long time, Yi Shuyuan had already seen a lush port by the river in the distance. At the first glance, it was still very far away, but at the second glance, it was close.

There is a relatively grand temple near the port. At this moment, pilgrims inside and outside the temple are busy weaving incense.

Spring is just around the corner and the temple is almost overcrowded. The temple workers are both suffering and happy.

The wind calmed down and carried Yi Shuyuan to the waterside near the temple.

Before landing, Yi Shuyuan threw the folding fan in his hand into the water.

Whoosh~

The folding fan turned into an invisible wind and rolled up near the water bank. It turned into a dewy waterweed next to the duckweed. It rippled with the breeze blowing from the shore.

Yi Shuyuan had already stepped onto the shore, and his body shape instantly changed from invisible to blurry, and then to clear.

However, although his form is very clear, Yi Shuyuan is surrounded by pure aura at this moment, which makes him a bit brighter in the eyes of ordinary people, but they may soon forget what he looks like after seeing it.

Hui Mian was finally relieved. His husband had just flown too fast, and even though it wouldn't be hit by the strong wind in his arms, it still felt very nervous.

"Sir, is this the orthodox method you are talking about?"

"Yes, there are harmful monsters on the Kaiyang River, and there are also ghosts that have become a climate and absorb people's yang energy. Monsters and ghosts can come and go freely. The Kaiyang Water God cannot escape the blame!"

Hui Mian was stunned for a moment after hearing Yi Shuyuan's answer.

"But those are his godson and his generals."

Yi Shuyuan looked at the little Diao in his arms and smiled.

"Oh, really? But I don't know!"

"You obviously"

Hui Mian stopped talking in the middle of his words. It had already reacted. Why does Sir need to know? Indeed, sir, you don’t know!

While he was talking, Yi Shuyuan had already walked forward. As he moved forward, more and more pilgrims came in front of him. Others were not surprised at all when Yi Shuyuan appeared from another uninhabited direction, as if this should be the case.

"Alas, dear donors, fellow believers, dear good officials, there are too many people in the temple, please walk slowly and orderly——"

The temple worker shouted over there.

"Lord River God is very efficacious. You just need to be pious and respectful. If you want to buy incense, buy it at the edge. If you go inside, there are no stalls—"

There are indeed many people, but not so much that we can't walk on the road.

Yi Shuyuan followed the endless stream of people into the temple area and found that although the stall for buying incense was large, there was only one stall, unlike many temples where there were many stalls competing with each other.

It seems that this incense candle stall is also the property of the temple.

"Dear pilgrims, would you like to buy some incense?"

At the stall, there were people shouting, some collecting money and change, and some picking up goods and handing out incense. It seemed that there was an orderly division of labor.

Although not everyone who comes here knows how to buy incense, most of them definitely buy incense. Yi Shuyuan also walked over.

"Hey, young master, do you want to buy incense? Here are all the best sandalwood. There are three pillars of 20 cents, 3 pillars of 50 cents, 3 pillars of 100 cents, and one tael of silver and three pillars of divine blessing incense. !”

Wow, this fragrance is so expensive!

Do you dare to sell incense for one tael of silver? Is it mixed with gold powder?

"I want three pillars worth twenty cents."

Yi Shuyuan responded like this.

Most people buy it for twenty coins, but as long as it is dressed as a Confucian scholar, it usually starts at fifty coins.

After all, spring is just around the corner, and most of the Confucian scholars who come to worship the gods are relying on the gods and want to ask the gods to bless them and obtain fame.

After hearing Yi Shuyuan's words, the temple worker who was greeting people couldn't help curling his lips.

I just saw this handsome and handsome man walking towards me, and I thought he was a big customer, but I didn't expect that he only bought twenty coins.

Other scholars buy fifty or hundreds of coins, or even one tael of silver. Why should the gods bless you, who has twenty coins?

I thought so in my heart, but I didn't say it in my mouth, but the look of disdain on his face was as obvious as a painting.

Yi Shuyuan didn't take it seriously. He had already withdrawn the money and gave it to the temple worker nearby. Naturally, someone handed him three pillars of sandalwood.

"Your fragrance."

Yi Shuyuan didn't say thank you after taking it, and went straight to the inside of the temple along with the flow of people.

"Hui Mian, do you think this river god can stand my three sticks of fragrance?"

"Hey Hey."

Hui Mian replied with a low laugh. It couldn't wait any longer. Although it already knew that Mr. Wang shouldn't worship God easily, it had never seen it before. After all, there is a God and it needs to be experienced first.

The River Temple worships not only the River God, but also various generals under the River God. There is even a side hall dedicated to worshiping several gods of the Ministry of Water.

This temple is not only about offering incense, but also has many scenic spots. There are also literati and poets writing poems and ink, creating an elegant scene.

Yi Shuyuan had no intention of visiting the temple, let alone participating in the entertainment of the literati there. Instead, like ordinary pilgrims with a strong purpose, he walked through the first few courtyards and headed towards the largest main hall.

There were pilgrims in the front, and there was a cloud of smoke from the palace courtyard to the palace.

Yi Shuyuan looked up from outside and saw a man with a calm expression at the Water God Statue of Kaiyang Grand Canal.

This river god wears a crown of virtue and a black cloud robe. It is very finely carved, highlighting three aspects of his divinity, as if he is looking at the many respectful and pious pilgrims in the audience with his eyes slightly closed.

Yi Shuyuan stood in the courtyard and looked at the Kaiyang Water God calmly. He had no intention of entering the temple to grab futons from pilgrims to worship, nor did he plan to go inside to burn incense.

Just with a thought, fire grew on the tops of the three sticks of incense in Yi Shuyuan's hand, and they were all ignited in the next moment.

Yi Shuyuan held three sticks of incense and walked to the large incense cauldron in the courtyard.

This incense cauldron is usually filled with handfuls of incense offered by pilgrims. At this moment, Yi Shuyuan held the base of the incense with both hands, faced the direction of the statue, and gently inserted three sticks of incense into the incense cauldron.

At this moment, a strong scent of sandalwood that not everyone can smell came out of the incense cauldron

The pilgrims who were worshiping the gods found that the long incense in the incense burner next to the god's desk seemed to be shaking, and the incense ash that had accumulated at the head of the incense to cover half of the sparks had fallen off.

The temple attendant who was greeting people noticed that the lights of some large candles and lamps beside him were swaying, and the lamp oil in the ever-burning lamps was rippled.

The literati and ink writer were swiping their pens and writing joyfully and adding poems, but they found that the lid of the tea cup was shaking, the ink in the inkstone was shaking, and the words in the pen in his hand were also slightly skewed. However, this was not because the hand was unstable, but because the pen was shaking. It’s the table and paper that are shaking

This feeling is not obvious at first, then becomes noticeable, and gradually becomes more and more intense.

The entire Kaiyang Grand Canal River Temple began to shake slightly, and some old dust that could not be cleaned continued to fall.

In particular, a statue of the river god was shaking the most, as if it was about to fall off the altar.

"Rumble, rumble, rumble."

In a short period of time, the movement was already booming.

"What's going on?" "What's going on?"

"What happened?"

"The earth dragon turned over?"

Some were stunned, some were surprised, but as the movement became louder and louder, someone finally shouted out in horror.

"Ah——" "The temple is going to collapse——"

"Run quickly——" "Ah"

"Run quickly——"
