He has clear eyes and can see the true shape of the scroll.

Zhou Youlin thought that he didn't believe it, and his face turned red with anxiety.

"Don't be impatient, benefactor."

When Lin Zhao said this, what Tang Seng said to him in the TV series Journey to the West when Monkey King scratched his head anxiously appeared inexplicably in his mind.

He cleared his throat and said seriously: "The poor monk already understands."

After all, he took the painting scroll, and when no one expected it, he tossed it lightly—throwing the painting scroll into the fire.

The red tongue of fire licked the scroll, and it burned fiercely. The woman in the painting screamed. In the billowing flames, Lin Zhao recited scriptures, and soon the woman fell silent.

The flames quickly consumed the scroll and engulfed it.

"The poor monk has burned the female ghost's belongings, and the female ghost has also been sent to reincarnation by the supernatural being. The crimes she committed for the ghost will be judged by the judge of Hades. Don't worry."

Zhou Youlin let out a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and slumped his shoulders.

"Abbot, there is still my friend in the temple studying here. I will live with him for a few days, and let the incense in the temple drive away bad luck."

Lin Zhao naturally nodded in agreement.

After the temple's first consecration business was completed, other pilgrims soon came to the temple again and again, and the incense money rose rapidly.

The reputation of Qingquan Temple has also soared rapidly, and even the capital has heard of it vaguely.

Merchant ships and passenger ships traveling to and from Fucheng, merchants and tourists all come to this famous No. 1 Daling Temple in Fucheng to worship and burn incense.

After earning such a large amount of money from the consecration business, Lin Zhao started to build the Patriarch Hall.

The Patriarch Hall is located on the left hand side of the Daxiong Hall, where the Patriarch Bodhidharma, the Sixth Patriarch Huineng, and Baizhang Huaihai are enshrined.

Restoration of other areas has also begun, Yuantong Hall, Jialan Hall, other courtyards, Zen Hall and Sutra Pavilion.

On the central axis, there are Shanmen, Tianwang Hall, Daxiong Hall, Yuantong Hall, and Sutra Pavilion in sequence, and the last entrance is the other courtyard and the meditation hall.

On both sides of the central axis, there are Bell and Drum Towers, Patriarch Hall and Jialan Hall symmetrically arranged.

All the money that has just been acquired has been invested, and it must be continuously invested in the later stage, which is simply burning money.

He also started to collect and transcribe the scriptures in the Sutra Pavilion.

The temple also needs to recruit more manpower for training, but there is no rush, take it step by step.

When the soap industry on the emperor's side develops, they can get some dividends no matter what, and the flowers from Miss Seven's side.

In addition to these two sources of income, the most important ones are the incense money and the money Lin Zhao earns from going out to "play the jungle" from time to time.

The so-called "wilding" is to help people transfer bad luck and save ghosts.

Occasionally also undertake some business such as "consecration".

Because the temple is very good at asking for lottery, those pilgrims will give some money to thank them more or less.

Because the temple is getting better and better, there are pilgrims from Kyoto begging to come to the door.

It was the Princess of Kyoto who came here, and the request was to help dispel the evil peach blossom.

Peach Blossom Evil is also called Peach Blossom Tribulation, and those who commit Peach Blossom Evil will have disputes due to their emotions, which will lead to disasters.

Princess Anyi went to the outskirts of Kyoto for an appointment with friends.

When the carriage arrived at the Chenghai Sea, Princess Anyi lifted the curtain as usual, put her hand on the extended wrist of the attendant, and was about to get off the carriage.

"Princess Anyi, I miss you so much after not seeing you for a long time."

The familiar voice sounded, Princess Anyi only felt that the place where her hand rested became wet and disgusting like an octopus sent by a sea boat.

She quickly withdrew her hand, staring at the attendants on the left and right, and didn't know how to remind this annoying thing when it came.

The attendants on the left and right are very innocent, and they don't know when this little Lord Luo came over quietly.

"Princess, I'll help you get out of the car." Lord Luo Xiaohou smiled at her affectionately.

Princess Anyi had goosebumps all over her body, she didn't respond, but instead said: "Lord Luo is here too. You just said that it's been a while since you said it, why did you lose your head, the last time I saw you was only three days ago."

As she spoke, she put her hands on the shoulders of the maid and jumped out of the carriage.

"Haha, does the princess really remember the days when we meet each time like I do? I'm so happy. For me, not seeing the princess for a day is like three autumns."

Princess Anyi had goosebumps all over her body again.

Talking to this person would shorten her life for half a year, she quickly walked towards the crowd, holding onto the little sister's hand and not letting go.

Chenghai is said to be a sea, but it is actually an inland lake. It is called Chenghai only because of its large area.

The weather is just right, cool and windy, and young men and women from aristocratic and official families are playing by the lake in twos and threes, or reciting poems and singing peace, or boarding boats and paddling, or talking to each other.

Princess Anyi is good at painting and tracing. Seeing the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains, he set up his easel, prepared paint tools, and prepared to paint the scene in front of him.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the princess is painting, actually I think the lone boat on the lake in front of me is pretty cool..."

The annoying little Marquis An came over again, stood to the side and gesticulated, and after talking a lot, he looked at the painting in front of Princess Anyi.

"Hahaha, you're right, princess, if you paint as I said, it will be perfect, it's all my idea."

Princess Anyi's knuckles holding the pen turned white from exertion.

What does it mean to paint according to what he said? I have been painting here for a long time, and he said that I painted according to his ideas?

Did the ship appear because of him?

Such a big face. Princess Anyi's anger was brewing.

"Adding someone here will make it look better. I will be your model, and you will draw me on it! Here... and here, add some... add a tiger there... listen to me, you must be right."

Princess Anyi's hand holding the pen has been clenched into a fist, ready to explode.

"Hey, Da Leng, why are you dressed like a seven-star ladybug today? You're quite chic!" At this time, a young man with well-developed limbs came over.

After hearing this, Xiaohou An took a look at the embroidered patterns arranged on his clothes, he really looked a bit like a seven-star ladybug.

Before he went out today, he was complacent in front of the mirror for a while, this suit was specially made by a Suzhou embroidery lady.

"Stupid Qi, what do you know? This is..."

The person who came was Qi Song, the youngest son of Qi Wuhou's family. Qi Song's words seemed to be just a greeting to him, and he ignored what he said next, and turned to Princess Anyi.

"Princess, don't draw any more. I'll take you to go on a boat tour of the lake! The mountain wall over there is naturally covered with patterns of Buddha statues. It's so beautiful!"

Princess Anyi was very moved by his proposal, but was interrupted by An Narcissus, and she lost interest in painting when she stayed here. But when she thought about going on a boat tour of the lake with Qi Song, she thought it would be better to stay on the shore.

"Qi Shizi, how dare you invite the princess to go with you? You have troubled the princess so many times, don't let the princess fall into the lake with you this time."

Although An Narcissus was annoying, he was indeed right.

In fact, I almost planted in the lake before, when I was swimming in the lotus pond in her handkerchief mansion, Qi Song was in the same boat as her at that time, I don’t know how he jumped, the boat almost capsized, fortunately there was someone beside her A boat approached, and she was pulled over in time, so that she didn't sink together with Qi Song.

In fact, she always felt that Qi Song’s brain was lacking. Not only did she not know how to judge the color of the situation, but she always said something that she thought was interesting, completely ignoring other people’s feelings, and she always wanted to do some strange things on a whim. , resulting in frequent disasters.

For example, at the banquet, I saw her rushing over happily, but spilled all the wine on her favorite dress.

Another example is when going out for a horse race, he slapped the rear of the horse he was riding with a whip, so frightened that she could only hug the horse's neck tightly and run wildly. .

There are also big bears and big leopards being chased towards her when hunting, and when she leans on the fence to look at her, she suddenly pats her shoulder from behind to scare her...

...and so on and on and on and on.

Seriously, is she really loved by him, not hated by him?

Every time she is with Qi Song, she always has to worry that her little life will be ruined if she is not careful, so she avoids him on weekdays, and does not go to any group gatherings when she hears that Qi Song is there, but for some reason Qi Song Song seems to be staring at her all the time, and she can always find her in front of her.

For example, this time, didn't it mean that he was punished by his father for half a month? !

"What are you talking about?" Qi Song pushed Young Master An's shoulder, and the latter staggered back two steps.

Qi Song stretched his arms around Master An's neck, and the two wrestled as if they were competing with each other.

Princess Anyi shook her head, and asked her maid to pack her things and stay away from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

"Plop!" The sound of two heavy objects falling into the water sounded.

Princess Anyi turned around and was startled when she heard the sound, and hurriedly asked the attendants to go down and pull them back.

It turned out that the two had a bullfight at the edge of the lake, and Master An's foot slipped, and at a critical moment, he pulled Qi Song and fell down together.

The two of them climbed ashore, their bodies were wet, but luckily they would prepare clothes when they travel, and the attendants arrived in time to wrap their master in the carriage with soft and absorbent cloth to change clothes.

Princess Anyi is no longer in the mood to appreciate the lake scenery here. The little sisters came to take a look after hearing the news. It was these two unlucky guys again and again, who made bad luck again and again, ruining the mood of Princess Anyi.

She rolled her eyes and snorted softly to express her disdain. Drag Princess Anyi to climb high and look far away, and before they react, quickly stay away from these two scourges.

Looking at the scenery of Gao Song entering the sea of ​​clouds, without the sound of those two people around, the peace and tranquility made Princess Anyi feel very comfortable.

Holding hands with the little sisters, we had a great time talking, eating some melons and fruits, drinking some wine, and having a hand-to-hand conversation, and the whole afternoon passed.

It was not until the sunset was slanting to the west that I reluctantly set off to go down the mountain.

Unexpectedly, on the steps at the foot of the mountain, I met those two worried people again.

"Princess!"

The two shouted in unison, and stared at each other not to be outdone, Young Master An couldn't bear it, and pushed Qi Song, and he staggered by the lake, I still remember it, it can be regarded as Pay it back.

Princess Anyi took a deep breath, walked around the two of them, and went down the steps.

The little sister was stopped by the two, and she said "Hello" angrily, telling them to get out of the way.

"Give way!" Qi Song said.

"Let go first!" An Xiaohou said.

"Take your hands away!" Qi Song said again.

"If you want to take you, remove your dirty paws first!" Xiaohou An said again.

Qi Song just waved his hands away.

The little sister couldn't bear it anymore and was about to yell, but seeing the sudden change, she swallowed her voice completely and let out a scream of panic and fear.

After Qi Song was scolded by Master An for dirty paws, he was about to throw his hands away to let go, but he didn't estimate his own strength, and he didn't estimate the endurance of Master An's small body. He was sideways by the strength of his shaking hands, and fell directly backwards...

Princess Anyi was walking down, when suddenly a strong force hit her from behind, knocking her down the steps, flipping her body several times, before she fell on the platform, she was about to stop, and her black hair slowly leaked out. bright red blood.

"Ah!" The little sister screamed in shock, and directly knocked away Qi Song who was stunned in place, passed Xiaohou An who grabbed the pine branch in time, and surrounded Princess Anyi with the maids.
