Chapter 144: I believe it

The Taoist Temple was completely renovated. According to the time calculated by Feng Shui Master Li, Shi Qinglou announced it to the villagers.

Anyone willing to go to Taoist Temples to offer incense was welcome.

Xiao Hanzheng also went to the county seat to invite Feng Shui, Master Li.

To Shi Qingluo’s surprise, almost every household in Xiaxi Village came, not just their family.

The same goes for the neighboring villages.

Even the people in the county town and from other places also came.

Shi Laosan took Mrs. Niu and came to the Taoist Temple before dawn to squat and guard. When the gate opened, he rushed in and lit the first stick of incense.

He made a wish to give him a son.

Although Mrs. Niu was resentful towards Shi Qingluo, she was quite serious about offering incense in front of the Old Taoist Priest’s tablet.

Shi Qingluo watched people crowding towards the Taoist Temple. Each one of them offered incense devoutly.

She suddenly had the feeling and atmosphere of traveling on a modern holiday and being crowded with people.

Standing in a corner of the main hall, she sighed, “I didn’t expect so many people to come.”

Xiao Hanzheng took a leave of absence from the county school today: “Everyone believes that your master is an old immortal, so as soon as the Taoist Temple opens, they want to come and pay homage.”

Shi Qingluo chuckled and said, “That’s fine. The more mysterious it is, the better.”

This way, after the corn matures at the end of next month, her master will be able to show his vision.

Xiao Hanzheng knew what she meant. He smiled in a low voice and asked: “Do you want to ask your master to show up his spirit right now?”

Shi Qingluo gave him a look that said, “Of course, we have to get a good start.”

Just as she was talking, the chiefs of several villages came over and invited Shi Qingluo and the others over.

“Dalang’s wife, can you take us to offer incense to the Old Immortal Taoist?”

In the past few months, due to the changing times, the lives of people in several villages have gradually improved.

Everyone was very grateful to Shi Qingluo and was in awe of the Old Taoist Priest who taught Shi Qingluo.

Just when Shi Qingluo was thinking about how to make her master appear, several clan leaders came to the door. What a good chance!

She nodded and said with a smile: “Of course.”

So she took a handful of incense from the table and gave three sticks to each of the people.

Then put the rest back.

She also reached out to straighten the slightly crooked incense burner and touched the switch.

There were nine dots behind the incense burner, distributed like a cipher disk.

Shi Qingluo set a six-digit password, and touching the six dots can open the mechanism.

If she just touches it by accident, but the six numbers are wrong or touches it in the wrong order, the mechanism will not work.

At this point, she was very glad that Xiao Mu and his son took refuge in her.

Xiao Mu has a heritage of craftsmen. He was not only good at carpentry, he was also good at various mechanisms and parts.

So she told Xiao Mu and his son her idea and gave her opinions from time to time, and the two of them worked hard.

After turning on the mechanism, Shi Qinglou lit incense and knelt on the futon in front of the tablet.

“Master, today I rebuild the Taoist Temple for you and enshrine your tablet here.”

“Everyone admired and wanted to thank you for your grace.”

“If you are happy, please show your spirit, so that this Taoist Temple will be prosperous in the future.”

At this time, people were standing around.

Hearing Shi Qingluo’s words, everyone was stunned.

The Old Immortal Priest can show his spiritual powers, is it true?

Most of the people present did not believe it.

Fei Yuzhe also brought Fei Congjun to join in the fun.

As for the Old Immortal Priest, they heard what the people in the village said. It was very mysterious.

But he was dubious.

The reason why he half-believed it was because Shi Qingluo knew too much, and her mind was too flexible.

She is full of energy and vitality cannot be found in other women.

As for the appearance of some old god, they think it was impossible.

Only Shi Laosan’s eyes showed a bit of fanaticism. Will the Old Immortal Priest appear again?

Then the Old Immortal Priest heard his wish for a son just now, right?

At this moment, everyone felt a gust of wind blowing above their heads.

Everyone looked up and then saw a layer of golden light suddenly flashing and shaking on the top of the hall.

Although it disappeared quickly, everyone present saw it.

“The old, old immortal, really, really showed his spirit!”

The stammering voice of a person broke the silence in the hall at this time.

Many people could not help but kneel on the ground and worship, each with piety and excitement.

They didn’t expect that the Old Immortal Priest was real and had a spirit.

They were lucky to be able to see this scene in their lifetime.

Fei Yuzhe and Congjun both had their eyes widened with disbelief on their faces.

Fei Yuzhe turned to look at his nephew uncertainly and asked, “Did the wind blow just now and there was a golden light shining?”

Could there be such a magical and mysterious thing in this world?

Fei Congjun also recovered and nodded, “Yes, I also felt and saw it.”

“It turns out that Sister Qingluo is the apprentice of the Old Immortal Priest!” He was completely convinced now.

Fei Yuzhe had no choice but to believe it now.

After all, there were no windows on the top of the hall, so the wind couldn’t blow from above.

The most important thing is that there was a sudden flash of golden light. This was not fake, so how they will explain it?

At this moment, no one thought that this was done by Shi Qingluo.

Standing behind Shi Qing Luo, the clan leaders holding incense were even more confused.

Then they all knelt excitedly and said, “Bless me, Old Immortal Priest. We will come to offer incense to you every day!”

After kowtowing their head, they felt good and had a look of enthusiasm.

Patriarch Xiao couldn’t help but ask: “Dalang’s wife, the Old Immortal Priest has appeared. Is he satisfied with us?”

Other clan leaders also looked at Shi Qingluo.

Shi Qingluo: “……”

How will I know that he is satisfied with you?

She had a somewhat incomprehensible smile on her face: “He should be quite satisfied, otherwise the master wouldn’t have appeared.”

“Our village and the nearby villages are getting better and better, and our goods are getting more and more popular. The old master is happy to see it.”

Master, I could only answer like this for your sake.

Just assume that you are satisfied, you have to continue to bear the blame.

These words made Patriarch Xiao and others even more excited.

A few people’s faces glowed brightly, and they nodded with honor and excitement, “Yes, we will make the village better and better, and we will not disappoint the Old Immortal Priest’s expectations.”

Shi Qingluo: “……”

If you think too much, the Old Immortal Priest may not have expectations.

She nodded and smiled, “That’s right. Let the clan leaders keep up the good work.”

After using the Old Taoist Priest to encourage several clan leaders, they will devote more attention to the development and construction of the village.

And she and her husband will have a greater say.

The Old Immortal Priest appeared, and a swarm of people rushed in to offer incense.

Even Fei Yuzhe and Fei Congjun who were in front were not exempt from vulgarity and hurriedly went to offer incense.

Shi Qing Luo and Xiao Hanzheng quietly exited the hall.

The two went to the backyard to look at corn and peppers.

After offering incense or preparing to go to the Taoist Temple for a while, people who were originally visiting the Taoist Temple have already gone to the main hall because of the appearance of the Taoist Priest.

There was no one around, so Xiao Hanzheng asked in a low voice: “How did that golden light come about?”

Shi Qingluo smiled and replied: “Thanks to the gold rewarded by the Holy Spirit. I used a few mirrors to shine on the gold to reflect the golden light.”

She did this using the refracted light she had learned before.

Xiao Hanzheng chuckled from the bottom of his heart and said: “Madam, you are so smart.”
