Chapter 10 Apprentice Fee

"Since this is the case, the layman should first pay 100 taels for the apprenticeship fee. The poor Taoist sees that the layman's bones are very good, and his yang energy is strong. It is definitely a good material for a Taoist priest."

"As long as you worship me as your teacher, you can become a direct disciple of Qingxu Temple, and learn the Taoist method of Qingxu Temple—"Five Thunders and the Righteous Method". In time, it will be easy to kill demons and eliminate demons." Daoist Shan Hai He opened his mouth with a smile on his face, where there is still no bones of immortality before, he looks more like a complete liar.

"The price of the poor road is fair, and it is absolutely innocent!"

"If Layman Jiang Chen has no problems, he should pay the money quickly so that the poor Taoist can accept you as a disciple."

Jiang Chen couldn't accept Taoist Shanhai's sudden change.

"100 taels of silver, Daoist, are you a vampire!" Not to mention 100 taels, he couldn't afford even 100 taels of silver.

"This old Taoist has some skills, but it doesn't seem to be much."

"Master Daoist, you are a master of the world, no matter how much you value money like a worldly person, money is the root of all evil, what do you do with so much money!" Jiang Chen looked helplessly at the old Taoist priest who was obsessed with money.

"I know you are capable, but you suddenly asked me to pay 100 taels of silver, and I really can't afford it." Jiang Chen only had more than 20 taels of silver all over his body. Unreservedly handed over to the old Taoist priest.

"Layman, this statement is wrong. In the Jianghu, money is the most important thing. You must know that money is not everything, but without money, it is absolutely impossible."

"You have to know that the cost of repairing the Taoist temple alone is not less than 500 taels of silver every year, not to mention the production of magical tools, talismans, and formations for killing evil, all of which require a huge amount of silver."

"The poor Taoist is not a monk, so he naturally regards money as dung. In my view, people walk in the secular world, and naturally they cannot avoid the secular world."

"100 taels of silver is really not expensive. If you think about it, the value of the "Five Thunders" alone is not less than ten thousand gold. What's more, as long as you become my apprentice, you will be a direct disciple of Qingxu Temple, with a very high status. glory!"

"Pindao also sees that the layman is destined to be with me, so he sincerely invites me. If it were someone else, Pindao would not say much."

"Forget it, the layman does not have 100 taels of silver, which means that the relationship between us as a master and apprentice has not yet come." Shanhai Taoist sighed slightly, with some pity in his eyes.

"I just feel sorry for you. The poor Taoist suggested that you don't run around if you have nothing to do. You have a strong yang energy, and you will encounter evil spirits sooner or later. Be careful in everything." The old Taoist shook his head when he saw that Jiang Chen had no money. Shaking his head, he turned and left decisively.

Jiang Chen looked at the figure of the old Taoist priest, and was stunned for a moment.

This old Taoist priest is really shameless, even asking for 100 taels of apprenticeship fee, he wonders if this old Taoist priest is playing tricks.

It seems that fraud exists everywhere, but there is no difference between anti-fraud apps in this world.

First, the little Taoist said that he could be his guide for ten taels, and asked the old Taoist to accept him as an apprentice, but now the old Taoist said that he would pay 100 taels for the apprenticeship fee.

"But what if what the old Taoist said is true, if the "Five Thunders" really exists." Jiang Chen is interested in the "Five Thunders" that the Taoist said, but judging from the current situation, it is probably Fake.

"It doesn't matter. The martial arts of ordinary people are useless against evil spirits, but I am different. As long as I have enough attribute points, I will definitely break through the limits of ordinary people, hurt or even kill evil spirits!" Jiang Chen is full of confidence in himself.

"Taking a step back, even if what the old Taoist Shanhai said is true, he can only settle this matter first, and then earn enough 100 taels of silver to become a teacher." Jiang Chen put away his thoughts.

He began to continue to investigate what happened to Zhang Yuan's family recently. He first asked other servants and got a lot of useful information.

"Originally, Mrs. Zhang was on a vegetarian diet, but one month before her death, her appetite increased greatly, and she was prescribed a meat abstinence."

"Many people often hear creepy chewing sounds coming from Mrs. Zhang's room late at night."

"Ms. Zhang's usually gentle personality began to become irritable, and she didn't like sunlight even more. She ordered her servants to block all the light in the house with a black cloth."

"All these unusual things point to Mrs. Zhang, and she is absolutely inseparable from this matter." Jiang Chen is sure that the recent unusual things that happened to Zhang Yuan's family are definitely inextricably linked to the dead Mrs. Zhang contact.

As long as the coffin is opened for inspection, the truth can be known, but judging from Zhang Yuanwai's previous attitude, he absolutely does not allow such a disrespectful act of opening the coffin.

"In that case, I can only find out late at night." Jiang Chen planned to sneak into the hall tonight when other people were not paying attention, intending to open the coffin to verify his guess.

If it's really Mrs. Zhang's problem, it's better to destroy Mrs. Zhang's body in time.

Jiang Chen hurried back to the room, sat down on the wooden bed and squinted his eyes to rest, he was going to find out late at night when no one was around. '

"..."

The night was blurry and full of stars. From a distance, Zhang Yuanwai's house was brightly lit, as if he was in a hazy picture scroll, which felt unreal.

At this time, the living room of Zhang Yuan's house was full of maids and servants, and there were even more robust servants guarding the surroundings with swords in hand.

Zhang Yuanwai sat on the main seat with a serious expression on his face. He took a sip of Longjing.

This kind of tea is extremely expensive, and one tael of it costs ten taels of silver. Ordinary people can't afford it for a lifetime, and only wealthy families can afford it.

At the entrance of Longjing, the fragrance of the tea was lingering on the lips and teeth, but at this moment Zhang Yuanwai was full of sadness, and he didn't even have half the mind to taste the tea.

"My lord, there are patrolling officers from the yamen and the Taoist chief of Qingxu Temple here tonight. Nothing will go wrong. You can go and rest first." Looking at the haggard Zhang Yuanwai, Butler Li couldn't help but speak.

Zhang Yuanwai sighed, he shook his head, his face became more and more haggard, because of this incident, he hadn't slept well for several days.

"I have a sense of foreboding. I hope things can be sorted out tonight."

"Why did such a strange thing happen recently? In another day, it will be time for the old lady to be buried. I hope everything goes well." Zhang Yuanwai sipped hot tea and looked outside the room with determination in his eyes. He stood up and spoke loudly.

"Cheer up and report to me in time if you find anything,"

"Li Ping, send me ten people to guard the hall at all times. At this time, I don't want any accidents on the day of the old lady's burial."

"If there is any problem tonight, you are the only one to ask." Zhang Yuanwai said sharply.

Li Ping hurriedly bowed down and respectfully said yes, and the other servants started to act one after another. All of a sudden, Zhang Yuan's house became lively.
