Chapter 21 Contract
Chapter 21 Contract
Yunlu Temple is a well-known Taoist temple in G City. It has a history of hundreds of years and generates considerable tourism income for G City every year.In addition, Yunluguan is also well-known for its professional level, including but not limited to exorcising ghosts and doing things according to Fengshui.
Jiangyu and the Taoist priests of Yunlu Temple have also dealt with each other, mainly because Fu Yin and Yunlu Temple jointly sell some jade amulets every year, and he will occasionally come to visit. Something real.So when Jiang Yu knew that Gu Jingxun's master was a Taoist priest from Yunlu Temple, he was not surprised at all.
Jiang Yu took two sips of orange tea and looked at Gu Jingxun: "When did you go to Qingxiu?"
Taking a closer look at Gu Jingxun, he is indeed a bit out of the world. If he doesn't smile, he has a calm and calm manner, which is somewhat similar to the statues in front of the hall in the temple.
It's a pity that Gu Jingxun has a low point of laughter, which is very dishonest and ungodly.
Gu Jingxun was sent to Yunlu Temple when he was 13 years old, and officially left when he was 15 years old. Now he is [-] years old, four years have passed in between.
Gu Jingxun thought for a while: "It's not considered pure cultivation. I was still in school at that time, and I just came to listen to Master's lectures and learn some methods of holding and observing Qi and controlling Qi."
Jiang Yu asked casually, "Who is your master?"
Gu Jingxun: "Xuan Chengzi, do you know him?"
Jiang Yu's face was paralyzed: "I don't know, I just want to know who is so unlucky to accept you as an apprentice."
Gu Jingxun was stunned by him for no reason, and wanted to laugh, but he really did.
Jiang Yu was inexplicable: "...Gu Jingxun, do you think your smile is too low?"
Gu Jingxun stopped at the red light and put one hand on the steering wheel, revealing a clear wrist line. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Yu. His facial features were extremely handsome, and his smile was elegant and clear like a scroll of calligraphy and painting: "It's not bad, is it?" .”
Gu Jingxun looked at Jiang Yu, and he knew very well in his heart: he may not have a low smile, but a low cuteness.
Laughing, like yawning, is contagious.
Jiang Yu was silent for a while, but couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Yunlu Temple is located in the downtown area of City G, and it takes more than two hours to drive.Jiang Yu fell asleep after the car entered the high speed. The contract between him and the Jiang family was broken, and Wutongshen could no longer influence him. However, he and the Jiang family had supported each other for nearly ten years, and the contract was suddenly broken. adapt.
Gu Jingxun didn't bother him anymore, and slowed down the speed of the car, and the two of them arrived at Yunluguan after three o'clock in the afternoon.
The Yunlu Temple is full of incense all the year round, not only tourists but also businessmen who come in and out.
Gu Jingxun stopped the car and woke up Jiang Yu: "I'll park the car first, will you go to the parking lot with me?"
Jiang Yu got out of the car with her bag in her hand: "Go by yourself."
When Gu Jingxun went to park the car, Jiang Yu saw several people coming out together wearing familiar jade tags. The quality of the jade was average, and the carving work was average. Sometimes they sell very well.
It also sold well this year.Jiang Yu's schoolbag was full of these jade tokens, which Fu Yin's unlucky dragon figure saved his life and asked him to bring them over along the way.
Jiang Yu looked away, and when he heard footsteps behind him, he turned around, and Gu Jingxun walked over on fallen leaves.
It is now the end of September, the temperature has dropped to [-] degrees all the way, and the road in front of Yunlu Temple is covered with golden leaves. Gu Jingxun stepped on the leaves and made a crisp crackling sound. stretch.
Gu Jingxun stopped in front of Jiang Yu: "Let's go."
Jiang Yu followed him into Yunlu Temple.
Gu Jingxun was obviously familiar with this place, he bypassed the front hall full of tourists, and went straight to the remote backyard without anyone leading him.
There was no one to stop him on the road. The further he went in, the fewer tourists there were, and there were more and more Taoist priests in coats. He was not surprised to see Gu Jingxun.
Jiang Yu quickened his pace, walked to Gu Jingxun's side, raised his hand and bumped him: "Didn't you say you rarely come here? I think you are quite familiar."
Gu Jingxun held his arm to prevent him from continuing to attack: "My fault, I'm afraid you won't come with me."
Jiang Yu looked at him coldly for a few seconds.
Gu Jingxun coaxed: "Don't be angry, I will apologize to you."
Pay your uncle.
Jiang Yu broke away from his hand: "Hurry up."
The guilt of eating Gu Jingxun's mouthfuls a few days ago has completely disappeared.
Xuanchengzi lives in a small courtyard on the mountain behind Yunluguan, and he has to climb the mountain if he wants to go up.Both Gu Jingxun and Jiang Yu were in good physical strength. It took them about ten minutes to climb up the mountain, and they saw a small, clean yard.
Gu Jingxun stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door.
The two waited for a while, and there was the sound of footsteps coming from inside the door. A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy opened the door and looked at Gu Jingxun in surprise: "Senior brother!"
The young man was obviously taken aback when he saw Jiang Yu behind Gu Jingxun.
Gu Jingxun turned sideways and introduced to Jiang Yu: "This is my junior brother, Lu Shu."
Jiang Yu nodded: "Jiang Yu."
Lu Shu pursed his lips and smiled at Jiang Yu. He opened the door and said with a smile, "Brother, is Master here? Master is in the tea room."
When Gu Jingxun came in, Lu Shu led the way and couldn't help turning his head to look at Jiang Yu secretly: Brother has never brought anyone here before, is this here to ask Master to do something to pray for blessings?
Jiang Yu pretended not to know the whole process, and had no intention of entering the teahouse, so he asked Lu Shu, "Do you have any other resting places here?"
Lu Shu whispered: "There is a reception room."
Gu Jingxun: "Why don't you go in and sit for a while?"
Jiang Yu shook his head.
Lu Shu scratched his head: "Please follow me."
Gu Jingxun stood there watching for a while, until he could no longer see Jiang Yu, then pushed open the door of the tea room and walked in.
Sitting in the tea room was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with long hair and wearing a blue-gray coat, who was watering a pot of green radish, when he saw Gu Jingxun coming in, he waved happily: "Come and sit down. I was just saying that if you don't come, I will call you and ask you to come."
Gu Jingxun sat behind the table, and he and Xuan Chengzi never talked about each other: "Master has been in good spirits recently. It seems that the events in Y City have not caused Master a headache."
Xuan Chengzi shook his head: "It's very troublesome. I invited the local gymnasium and Buddhist temple to practice before suppressing that ghost. There were even casualties. I arrived late, otherwise I'm afraid..."
Xuan Chengzi carefully looked at Gu Jingxun's face, "You don't look very good."
The corners of Gu Jingxun's lips twitched into a smile: "Two days ago, I caught a cold with the air conditioner turned on, and I felt a little uncomfortable, but it's not a big deal. I've already taken medicine, and I'm much better these two days."
Xuan Chengzi shook his head.
He closed his eyes for a while, and when he opened them again, there was a layer of light in his eyes, and he fixedly looked at Gu Jingxun: "The qi in his body is weaker than before, but fortunately there is no yin qi."
Gu Jingxun: "Master, I still want to ask if there are any talisman papers that gather spiritual energy. The students who accompanied me need them. The old man in his family believes in them."
"It just so happened that I drew a picture two days ago," Xuan Chengzi called Lu Shu outside the door, "Lu Shu, go to my bedroom and get the talisman paper from Duobao Pavilion and give it to your brother's classmate."
Lu Shu responded.
Gu Jingxun thanked him.
The eldest disciple has been in the WTO for several years, and still has a gentle and quiet personality. Xuan Chengzi couldn't help showing a smile on his face. Thinking of the hexagram a few days ago, the curvature of the corner of his mouth became flat again:
"Before you came, I actually made a fortune for you, and the fortune was not very good."
Gu Jingxun was surprised.
His physique is too special, and fortune-telling for him will cost a lot.
Xuan Chengzi: "When you first came to my side, I calculated it for you. In your life, there are two catastrophes, one time thirteen, one time twenty."
Gu Jingxun nodded.
When he was 13 years old, he almost died of excessive blood loss. It was a catastrophe, but he has survived safely.
Xuan Chengzi: "But my new hexagram for you shows that your calamity has been brought forward. Have you come into contact with any strange people recently?"
When Gu Jingxun heard that the robbery was ahead of schedule, he knew it already - the robbery in Master's hexagram should be Jiangyu.According to the arrangement of the plot, Jiangyu is indeed his robbery.
Gu Jingxun restrained his thoughts and shook his head: "There are no strange people."
Xuan Chengzi pondered for a moment, explained the hexagrams, and then suddenly remembered that his disciple had never learned this, so he simply explained: "From the hexagrams, Ying Yao should be a person with a high status and ulterior motives.
Gu Jingxun pinched his knuckles. He hadn't touched the matter of metaphysics for a long time, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered the so-called Yingyao, that is, the person or thing to be calculated, and here it refers to Jiangyu.
Xuan Chengzi: "When Ying Yao first approached you, he may have a kind face, act considerately, and be very close to you. He is good at disguising, and his methods are more sophisticated. He may not be able to see his true nature in a short time."
When Gu Jingxun heard the words "with kindness in his face and consideration in his actions", a slight smile appeared on the corner of Gu Jingxun's mouth.
The big villain was so fierce that he stepped on him several times in two days.
As for the characteristics of being good at disguising ulterior motives, it really fits perfectly with the image of Jiang Yu in the original book.But... Jiangyu is a brave. In the age of the Dharma where the aura is thin, every grown-up beast has great luck. It should be said that it is unspeakably expensive. How can it be a higher status?
But if it is classified from the perspective of mortal society, it makes sense that Jiangyu has a higher status.
Xuan Chengzi waited for a while, but did not wait for Gu Jingxun's answer. Seeing Gu Jingxun bowed his head in thought, Xuan Chengzi comforted him: "Don't worry, think slowly. The hexagram is a kind of omen, it doesn't mean that everyone around you People who treat you well are villains."
Gu Jingxun picked up the small teapot that was boiling again, and filled it with cold water.
His movements are smooth, but he is actually distracted—is this how he and Jiang Yu are going to confront each other step by step?Under everyone's kind reminders, they gradually began to guard against each other and alienate each other, until one day they stood in front of an unexplainable misunderstanding, the accumulated conflicts broke out, and finally turned against each other?
But no, neither he nor Jiang Yu are characters that fit the original setting.Jiang Yu's performance and behavior are even completely opposite to the plot. From Gu Jingxun's perspective, Jiang Yu's avoidance of him is also avoidance of the plot.
"Master thinks that what is foreshadowed in the hexagram must be accurate and will definitely happen?"
Gu Jingxun changed the furnace charcoal and asked suddenly.
Xuan Chengzi didn't expect him to ask this question. After thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head: "Master doesn't know either. It's just that over the years, everything counted has basically happened."
Gu Jingxun fell silent.
Xuan Chengzi didn't want his apprentice to be in such a difficult situation, so he changed the subject: "Is there anyone accompanying you today?"
Gu Jingxun: "Well, a friend. By the way, Master, do you know that there is a Pixiu in G City?"
"Pixiu?" Xuan Chengzi was slightly surprised, "Indeed, there are real dragons and Pixiu sitting in city G, how did you know?"
Gu Jingxun: "In August this year, I ran into Yin soldiers to make excuses. The one who dispelled the Yin soldiers was a white mythical beast. After checking the information, I thought it looked like a Pixiu. In addition, I had bought a Pixiu pendant in Zhuyu Zhai before. It’s very effective after being consecrated, so I wonder if I’ve seen the real Pixiu.”
Xuan Chengzi: "There is indeed a Pixiu in City G. He has been to Yunluguan a few times in real life, but I happened to go out those few times, so I haven't seen him. That Pixiu...may have a bad temper, and he has a stunted body. Weaker, so it is more difficult to get along with in character, and has never revealed to us the identity of a human being..."
Gu Jingxun spilled a little hot tea from his hand: "Stunt?"
It turns out that the scales appearing from time to time on Jiangyu make it difficult to maintain a human shape.
Xuan Chengzi nodded: "It's not a secret, Pixiu attracted a lot of covetousness when he was young, and now many humans still have the scales and hairs of young Pixiu in their hands. There is too much deficit, and it will not be too healthy when it grows up."
Originally, such a ferocious auspicious beast like Pixiu would not suffer from malnutrition when grown up in the wild, but when he was young, he was robbed of too much luck by humans, so he knew that his development was not good.
Xuan Chengzi: "When it comes to Pixiu, I remembered it, and you should stay away from it. The luck in your body is the best food for him. If he loses control, he will hurt you."
Dried fish should not be dangled in front of cats, it is easy to be bitten.
Gu Jingxun's eyes moved: "Then it seems that the possibility of me asking Pai Xiu to go back is almost zero. It's a pity."
Xuan Chengzi knew that businessmen wanted to attract wealth and treasures, "Actually, there is no way. Although Pixiu lacks luck, as an adult Pixiu, he is already lucky. If he signs a contract with someone with good fortune , Slowly raise it for a few years, and then you can raise it back."
Gu Jingxun nodded thoughtfully.
Jiang Yu and the Jiang family should have had this kind of relationship before. Jiang Yu left the Jiang family a few days ago, does it mean...the contract is broken?
Gu Jingxun recalled Jiangyu's state in the past two days, which further confirmed his conjecture.
Xuan Chengzi shook his head: "Even so, I still advise you not to think about it. For you, Pixiu is too dangerous. If you really want to return the favor of Pixiu for saving you, you can hook him up and get to know other people. .”
Gu Jingxun smiled and said, "I might not be able to run into him again."
Xuanchengzi: "That's right, Pixiu is a ghost that appears and disappears. It must have been because of an accident that blocked the way to save you."
Gu Jingxun was talking with Xuanchengzi, while Jiang Yu in the reception room had already slept, so he leaned back on the chair and stared blankly for a while, picking up the talisman paper on the table bored.
These were sent by Gu Jingxun's younger brother, who said they could gather spiritual energy, so Gu Jingxun and Xuan Chengzi probably wanted them here specially.This kind of talisman paper is very difficult to draw, and it takes a long time to draw one piece.
Jiang Yu hesitated and touched his neck.
He has been a little bit out of energy recently, and if he eats too much Dragon Blood Pill, its effectiveness will become worse. Anyway, the talisman papers of Yunlu Temple are all for sale, and it will be fine to pay according to the market price at that time.
Jiang Yu pressed the talisman paper with one hand and activated the talisman paper with spiritual power.The cinnabar on the yellow paper flickers on and off, gathering the surrounding aura on the talisman paper, and then passing it to Jiang Yu through Jiang Yu's fingers, saving Jiang Yu's own step of filtering the aura.
However, the effect of talisman paper is very poor, better than nothing.
The cinnabar on the talisman paper became brighter and brighter. Jiang Yu closed his eyes and guided the spiritual power to circulate in his body. What he didn't see was a wisp of black hidden in the cinnabar, which entered Jiang Yu's body along with the spiritual energy.
The moment the Yin Qi entered his body, Jiang Yu opened his eyes, threw away the talisman paper immediately, and gasped violently.
The yin qi in the talisman paper is rare but pure, and it is flexibly hidden in the aura.Jiang Yu lay on the table and had to mobilize a lot of spiritual power to expel the Yin Qi.The more psionic powers were used, the harder it was for him to maintain his human form.
It happened to be the time when he had just released the contract with the Jiang family...
Jiang Yu expelled the yin energy, and layers of scales appeared on the back of his neck.
Jiang Yu tried to pull back his sanity, absorbing aura from the surroundings to supplement his deficiency.

The sound of the door opening sounded.
Jiang Yu's consciousness knows who is coming before his eyes - the person with that kind of dark and sweet aura in this world must be Gu Jingxun.
Why did Gu Jingxun give him a talisman with yin energy?
No, Gu Jingxun probably didn't know that there was Yin Qi on the talisman paper... He couldn't even tell the talisman paper apart...
Jiang Yu's pupils gradually elongated, and he buried his face in his arms: "Get out."
Gu Jingxun found something wrong with Jiang Yu when he entered the door, locked the door behind him, and walked to Jiang Yu quickly: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yu pulled Gu Jingxun to his side with all his strength, he stood up, approached Gu Jingxun, sniffed Gu Jingxun's neck, and murmured: "You are so interesting, you dare to give yourself the talisman paper... ..."
Gu Jingxun was startled: "Is there something wrong with the talisman paper?"
Jiang Yu still has reason, but there is not much left. He propped up the wall with one hand, instinctively yelling for him to get closer and closer. It is best to press Gu Jingxun against the wall now, and draw from him the luck that can comfort him , reason repeatedly pulled him.
Gu Jingxun still hasn't made up for the luck he lost a few days ago, if he is bitten again... he will probably lie in the ward for half a year.And... Gu Jingxun would not be so stupid as to know that there was a problem with the talisman paper, and dare to come to him at this time, it should be a plot.
Jiang Yu shook his head, holding back his longing, "Go out first..."
Gu Jingxun was silent for a while: "The contract between you and the Jiang family..."
Jiang Yu's pupils shrank.
Gu Jingxun gradually smiled: "Will you sign one with me?"
He has a crazy idea that deviates from normal logic - if there is a contract with Jiang Yu, then how will the plot continue to provoke?
Gu Jingxun watched as Jiang Yu's eyes gradually turned into golden eyes, and gently pushed away the soft gray-green highlights on the top of Jiang Yu's head.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Jiang Yu has already deviated from the plot, so let him try, if the relationship between the two is completely reversed to the opposite of the plot, what kind of consequences will be obtained.
"Will you promise me?"
Gu Jing asked.
The author has something to say: The next book is "Reborn with the Villain", please collect it
Copywriting: Only after Xie Yun's death did he realize that he was the cannon fodder villain in Long Aotian's novel "Defying the Heavens and Changing Fate". He was slandered by the male protagonist and colluded with the Demon Lord, killing innocent people indiscriminately, and finally died under siege.
On the first day of Xie Yun's rebirth, he announced that he was seriously injured. On the surface, he pretended to be weak, took a step and gasped three times, put on his vest behind his back, and chased and killed the male lead.
It was the first time to chase and kill the male protagonist, Xie Yun met the biggest villain in the book, the future Demon Lord.
The second time to hunt down the male lead and meet the big villain again.
The third time to kill the hero, the big villain: "Fellow Daoist, do you want to join forces?"
Xie Yun: "..."
The big villain: "Fellow Taoist, we can discuss Taoism and swordsmanship together during the day, and hunt down enemies together at night. It's so uncomfortable to be happy and happy."
Later, Xie Yun confirmed the words "colluding with the Demon Lord".
Mozun: This collusion is a seduction, a combination...Sorry, I have drawn out my Dao Companion Sword.
Showy on the bright side, also aggressive on the back × weak on the outside, better than anyone else.
