Chapter 213.
At the gate of Datong County, Wang Duan got off the big green donkey.
Seeing Wang Chuan’s attire, the soldiers in front of the city gate not only didn’t collect the city fee, but also gave him a salute.
Daqian is under the jurisdiction of Yunyang Sect, and has always respected Taoism since the founding of the country. Therefore, Wang Chuan, a young Taoist with a mediocre appearance, was treated very differently from the common people.
In fact, even if he rode a big green donkey directly into the city, no one would stop him.
But Wang Dust obeyed the rules and led the donkey along the streets toward the city.
Datong County was not much different from the counties he had previously visited, such as Tide and Sanhe.
Narrow roads, low houses, messy stores, the streets are full of pedestrians, civilians, laborers, merchants, martial artists, beggars ……
The hustle and bustle was quite lively.
For Wang dust this Taoist, most of them hold the attitude of respect, bumped into immediately give way to the road.
Clang ~
Suddenly a gong sounded and a sharp voice reached everyone’s ears.
“When the world is in chaos, Maitreya Buddha is born!”
Upon hearing this voice, quite a few people changed their faces, revealing looks of awe.
Someone whispered, “The Maitreya Cult.”
Clang! Clang! Clang~
The sound of a gong rose higher than the sound of a gong, and a long procession meandered in.
Only four brawny bare-chested strong men were seen at the forefront to open up the road, their heads tied with yellow scarves and waisted with red belts, two of them holding the gongs and two of them holding up the flags.
The yellow flag was embroidered with two big black characters “Mi” and “Le” respectively.
Ten boys and girls, powdered and powdered, dressed in white short-root jackets, followed by eight big men carrying the red lotus Buddha’s seat in the cloud carriage.
The Buddha’s seat was covered with a light veil, inside which a slender and delicate figure was hidden.
At the back of the carriage were a group of women carrying baskets of flowers, and with smiles on their faces, they distributed fruits and pastries to passers-by.
“Believe in Maitreya, get peace!”
Those who received the pastries all kneeled down in fear, chanting, “Holy Maiden’s mercy, Maitreya’s blessing!”
At first there were only a few dozen or so people chanting, but soon it became a chorus.
Both sides of the entire long street were filled with pious-looking believers on their knees!
In such an almost frenzied atmosphere, even those with a resolute mind would be infected without realizing it.
Wang Dust looked on with cold eyes and led the big green donkey to the side.
His heart was quite amazed.
When the world was in great turmoil and the Maitreya Buddha was born, there were people who openly shouted such slogans.
And look at their posture, clearly not once or twice.
The local government actually did not listen to it?
Wang dust on the “Maitreya religion” know nothing, but has always respected the Taoist sect of Qian such a heresy, listening to the other side of the compelling slogans, feel that the world really have a tendency to chaos!
When the Red Lotus Buddha Seat passed by, he perceived a scrutinizing gaze falling on his body.
Spinning around, he withdrew it.
The Maitreya Sect’s procession quickly passed by banging gongs and drums along the way, and the streets resumed their previous appearance.
Wang Chen’s gaze flickered as he picked up the big green donkey and continued on his way.
He stopped a passerby to inquire, “May I ask how to get to the theater in the south of the city?”
As a result, the other party looked horrified, “No, I don’t know!”
Wang Duan asked several people in a row, but they all said they were not sure and had never heard of it.
Their gazes flickered and their words failed them, as if they had run into the plague.
Wang Chuan’s Taoist identity didn’t even work anymore!
Under the helplessness, Wang dust had to find a small beggar sitting on the roadside, threw the other side of an ingot of silver: “Take me to the theater in the south of the city, this ingot of silver is yours.”
“Good le!”
The small beggar grabbed the silver, put it to his mouth and bit hard, then smiled: “You come with me.”
Under the leadership of this small beggar, Wang dust followed all the way through the streets and alleys.
Coming to the front of a marketplace.
“This road goes all the way through and you can see the theater.”
The little beggar stopped here and asked in a low voice, “Master Taoist, are you going there to deal with evil spirits?”
“Hmm?”
Wang Duan was a bit surprised, “How do you know?”
“I’ve seen Taoist masters just like you before ……”
The little beggar shrunk his head, “Went there and didn’t come back, we don’t dare to get close.”
“Then you do me another favor.”
Wang Dust smiled and handed the reins in his hand to the other party, “Keep an eye on it, if I can’t come back, then this big green donkey will be given to you.”
The little beggar ignorantly took the reins, and the green donkey looked at each other wide-eyed.
The big green donkey sneezed disdainfully, “Ah poof!”
When the little beggar wiped the saliva from his face, Wang Dust’s figure had already disappeared.
He subconsciously shivered and hurriedly led the big green donkey to one side, squatted on the ground and began to wait.
And Wang Dust continuously three “Shrinking Ground into Inch”, has already seen the big theater in front of him.
The theater is located in the middle of the market, most of the surrounding houses and tiles have collapsed, and you can’t see the slightest bit of human atmosphere.
It was a stark contrast to the bustling scene on the streets earlier.
Wang Chen walked step by step to the front of the stage.
According to the information from the Hall of Sneak Removal, this place was still very lively half a year ago, but ever since a playwright accidentally fell off the stage and died tragically, a bizarre phenomenon had appeared.
In the middle of the night, there were people singing on the stage from time to time, babbling and haunting the soul.
The surrounding residents fled in fear, and those who wanted to unravel the secret often disappeared.
The Church of the Removal of Sneaks has also sent people to investigate, but nothing has been found.
It was presumed that there were evil spirits causing trouble.
The county government once wanted to tear down the theater, but no one dared to take the job.
And as long as the commoners in the city didn’t enter within a hundred paces of the stage, nothing would happen.
Over time, everyone defaulted to its existence.
Usually avoiding it.
Wang Chen stopped and enchanted himself with the Spiritual Eyesight Technique.
His Spiritual Eyesight Technique had long been cultivated to the level of the Great Perfection, able to break the Delusion Cave of Truth, directly observing the Yin Fury Evil Qi, and thus determining the existence of the evil spirit!
At this moment, in Wang Chen’s eyes, this theater in front of him was shrouded in a thick layer of evil aura.
It was as if it was a hibernating ferocious beast that would wake up at any time!
Wang Dust thought for a moment and took out a cloud brocade futon, a rosewood desk table, a tranquilizing incense burner, and a red clay tea stove from his storage bag ……
Sitting quietly burning incense and cooking tea, waiting for the good show to start!
This is the last stop of the parade, after finishing and going back, he is going to close the door to impact the ninth level of qi cultivation.
So Wang dust is very patient.
As the sky darkened, a silhouette suddenly appeared near the stage.
Many, many commoners and peddlers gathered around, adults screaming and children jumping, and the originally empty and desolate marketplace suddenly became noisy and noisy.
They sat down around Wang Dust, playing bushel fans and knocking melon seeds, talking and laughing enthusiastically.
With the sound of a gong, accompanied by qin, hu strings and bang bangs, the actors appeared on the stage, babbling and singing tunes that Wang Chuan couldn’t understand.
But the story of the man and the woman in love can be seen clearly.
Wang Duan held a cup of fragrant tea in his hand and saw the end of the song.
Already understand the story of the play.
The people on the stage sang a heartbreaking parting song, and the people off the stage walked by without seeing the old colors.
A ghostly voice came into his ears, “Dare I ask the elder, why did you come?”
Wang Duan smiled.
Only there wasn’t the slightest hint of laughter in his eyes.
“To cut down evil spirits!”
