Chapter 56 Lingxu Taoist
After leaving the Taoist temple's main hall, she just turned a corner and walked six or seven meters along an aisle when the middle-aged woman stopped.

Pushing open a half-closed side hall door, she bowed respectfully towards the hall and said, "Master, there are several people with predestined relationships who want to see you. I would like to ask you to help them resolve their problems."

As soon as she finished speaking, a response came from the side hall: "Since they are destined to be together, let them in!"

"Those of us who practice Taoism may be compassionate, but performing exorcism will ultimately damage our practice and our own vitality."

"There are some rules in the temple, Ciyun, I think you should explain them to the people who are destined to meet you in advance."

The voice coming from the side hall was a deep male voice with full strength.

The Ciyun he mentioned should be the name of the middle-aged woman.

I just don't know if this is a real name or a Taoist name?

"Okay, Master!" The middle-aged woman Ciyun slowly walked out of the side hall and stood beside Jiang Yao and others outside the gate.

With a friendly smile on her face, she glanced at the few people and said, "Our master is devoted to cultivation, and usually few people can ask him to help personally."

"You are blessed. Since the temple master is willing to meet you, no matter what happens to you, with his help, all diseases will be cured and all evil will retreat."

"But before you go into this side hall to see the abbot, there are some rules that I need to explain to you in advance."

Having said this, the middle-aged woman paused slightly.

After seeing that Jiang Yao in front of her had a normal expression, she continued, "Those who practice Taoism are indifferent to fame and gain. The master of the temple never likes to talk about money with others."

"But for a Taoist temple as large as ours, in addition to doing good deeds from time to time, we also need to offer incense to various gods every day."

"So, the Taoist temple has set a rule that if the temple master personally takes action, he needs to pay 330 yuan in incense money."

"Of course, this money is not for the temple, but for offering to the gods."

"To be honest, although the master of the temple has great magical powers, every time he attacks, his vitality is greatly damaged, and he may not be able to recover in ten days or half a month."

"Also, the master's actions are based on the number of times, regardless of the number of people. The three of you need the master to help you perform a ritual to exorcise the evil spirits. If it is divided equally among each person, it will be just over a hundred. You are making a lot of money!"

……

The woman named Ciyun was very eloquent. She spoke eloquently and her words were as endless as the torrent of a river.

It was obvious that she just wanted Jiang Yao and the others to continue paying, but when she said it, it sounded as if Jiang Yao and the others were getting a huge advantage.

When they heard that it would cost another three hundred and thirty, Tong Gang and Bingzai's pale faces seemed to be filled with black energy.

However, Jiang Yao hadn't said anything yet. Although the two of them were angry, they didn't show any other extreme behavior.

"The money issue is easy to deal with. Isn't it just three hundred and thirty?"

"As long as your master is really capable and can solve our problems, I will give you the money!"

Jiang Yao's brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were narrowed to just a slit.

After thinking for a while, he glanced at the middle-aged woman in front of him and promised.

Although he made some money from selling fish a few days ago, his money did not come from the wind.

He had been spending money like water during this period. After taking out the three hundred and thirty, although he was not bankrupt, he had very little money left.

When he said this at the moment, he was actually telling Ciyun in front of him that he would not give the 330 yuan for incense money first. He would only fulfill his promise after he truly saw the ability of the temple master and successfully helped them get rid of the calamity.

I don’t know whether Ciyun didn’t understand what Jiang Yao meant, or she had a mysterious confidence in her own master’s ability.

After hearing Jiang Yao's words, she not only did not show any displeasure, but was also obviously happy. "Since the few predestined people already know the rules, that's good!" Pushing the door of the side hall in front of them completely open, Ciyun invited everyone to walk into the side hall.

After Jiang Yao and others entered the hall, she retreated and left the door of the side hall ajar again.

It was broad daylight at this moment, but there were no windows in this side hall and the door was already closed, so the light was naturally not very good.

Although there were a few pairs of red candles lit in front of the statue enshrined at the head of the temple, they only made the slightly dim temple a little brighter.

The temple master mentioned by Ciyun was wearing an extremely loose apricot-yellow Taoist robe and sitting cross-legged on a cushion under the statue.

His face looked ruddy, but because of his long hair and beard, it was difficult to tell his real age.

"I am Lingxu, and I am here to invite you to sit down!"

With a calm expression, the temple master looked like an immortal. He pointed at several cushions placed on the ground and greeted Jiang Yao and the others.

"I already know what you are asking for."

"Let me calculate what kind of thing is that is entangling you guys!" After seeing Jiang Yao and the others sitting down, Taoist Lingxu muttered something and moved his fingers quickly, as if he was calculating.

After only a dozen breaths, he shouted loudly, then flipped his hand and a yellow talisman appeared in his hand.

The next moment, the yellow talisman at his fingertips spontaneously ignited without any fire.

A few steps away, Tong Gang and Bingzai, who were sitting on mats, saw this scene and their eyes lit up.

Only Jiang Yao's expression remained the same.

"What a sin, what a sin!"

"Gentlemen, what's bothering you is not simple."

"Thank goodness you were lucky enough to find me right away. Otherwise, if it had been delayed for another ten days or half a month, you would have been in danger of losing your lives!"

No one knew whether this Taoist Lingxu had really figured something out or was just trying to scare people. At this moment, he looked at Jiang Yao and the others with a look of shock and spoke.

"Please save us, Taoist priest!" Tong Gang and Gou Zi seemed to be really shocked.

After all, they had only received a few years of education and had no idea that if a little white phosphorus was put on talisman paper, it would spontaneously combust when exposed to the air.

For them, Taoist Lingxu's ability to make his talisman paper spontaneously combust was enough to astound the two of them.

Not to mention, Taoist Lingxu's subsequent words seemed to be very consistent with their current situation.

"God is merciful and kind. Since you are here, I will not let you go."

"Although the problem you are facing is a bit serious, there are fifty great ways and forty-nine heavenly evolutions. There is always a glimmer of hope in everything."

"Today, even if it means losing a lot of my power, I will definitely protect you and save your lives."

……

With a look of compassion, Taoist Lingxu, who was sitting cross-legged on the cushion, stood up.

He muttered something, stamped his feet, and shouted, "Sword!"

The next moment, a peach wood sword enshrined under the statue a few steps away suddenly flew up and fell into the hands of Taoist Lingxu.
