Chapter 96
Chapter 96
For many reasons, Taoism is now pushed to the margins in the country where it was conceived.
When you save the souls of the dead, it is difficult to see the Taoist priests who set up altars. Instead, they are replaced by monks knocking on wooden fish.Temples full of incense are built one after another, and luxury cars will be parked in them all night, and rich people pay tribute to their own sesame oil money, just to add their names on the stele of meritorious deeds .
In contrast, there are fewer and fewer Taoist temples, and the few remaining Daoist temples have declined a lot compared to their heyday hundreds of years ago.
But the strange thing is that there are more and more warlocks, celestial masters, and geologists wandering among the people.Compared with Taoist priests who are forced to keep silent about ghosts for various reasons, they are more like supermen born in the folk, single-handedly destroying those dark monsters that have always coexisted with the world.
Some people denounce them as liars, some people respect them, but when science is so developed that it seems to be omnipotent, the existence of the underworld has become an increasingly idealistic debate.
But in older cities, the number of these ascetics is slowly recovering and growing.
As the Celestial Master family with the longest history in G City, the Fang family has witnessed this change.
At the most desolate time, there were only ten members of the Fang family living in the main house, and the grass on the back mountain grew so wild that it was almost burned by farmers to reclaim the farmland.
Up to now, their patriarchs come and go with imported luxury cars, Fang family disciples are spread all over the country, and some of their next generation celestial masters are even planning to enter politics.
As the guide of the next generation of patriarchs, Fang Weili can be said to have been born in a good time.
From an ordinary disciple to the most attention-grabbing person in this generation, it is easy for anyone to be spoiled by thousands of favors.But fortunately, this 13-year-old boy did not lose his sanity. Under Fang Tianqing's guidance, he still studied hard and worked hard to become an excellent guide who can match the next generation of patriarchs.
His diligence was related to Fang Tianqing's teaching, but no one knew it, and it was because of a thorn in his heart that made him never dare to be arrogant and let go.
And this thorn always appeared in front of him so casually.
It's just to socialize with Fang Tianqing, and even meet Yan Jiu who had dinner with Qiao Yuan in the same restaurant.
Fang Tianqing didn't know that she was eating in the private room, only Fang Weili who came out to get things saw the two of them.
Fang Weili stood and watched for a while, and when Yan Jiu got up to go to the bathroom, he followed quietly.
The young man who was stuck in the toilet looked down at the boy who was a head shorter than himself in surprise, looked at him and said to himself: "You don't even want the Fang family to fall in love with a man?"
If an older person said this to him, Yan Jiu might feel a little sad, but the child in front of him is not only arrogant, but also half a round younger than himself, why should he question himself like this?
Besides, he was no longer the coward who had no confidence at all.
The boy who thought he could make trouble for the other party like before turned around triumphantly and was about to go out, but someone grabbed him by the collar.
"What are you doing!" He wanted to open Yan Jiu's hand angrily, but the other party let go before he touched him.Fang Weili, who was struggling too much, slipped and almost fell by the urinal.
The boy whose face was flushed with anger had just stood firm when he heard Yan Jiu gloating and laughing.
I wanted to go back with some trash talk and irony, but in this situation, I no longer need to talk nonsense, so Yan Jiu accepted it as soon as it was good, and walked out of the toilet with a smile in the upper hand.
When Fang Weili came out, he saw Qiao Yuan and Yan Jiu sitting together, looking at him with a smile.
The boy who had already regarded the other party as a thorn in his side even established a belief that he was incompatible.
"Look, I'm going back for revenge." Yan Jiu said to Qiao Yuan.
"Well, that's about the same." Qiao Yuan saw his pretentious appearance, the corners of his lips were frivolous, and he stretched out his hand to pinch his cheek.
He just likes the way this guy is getting more and more palatable by himself.
Yan Jiu like this has the label "Qiao Yuan's exclusive" all over his body, how wonderful.
Coming from the same family, Zhang Ruiyao's family background is obviously more international.
The Zhang family is the most authentic family of celestial masters. Even if Zhang Ruiyao is a descendant of a collateral family, it is enough to guarantee him a certain status in this business.What's more, since he entered the Hong Kong TV circle, the appearance price has increased even more.
As a homosexual who has drunk foreign ink, Zhang Ruiyao's face and wealth are enough for him to pick at will in the circle, and he doesn't know where he made a mistake, but he just fell in love with the most difficult young master Qiao.
Especially after he saw the abstinent side face of Young Master Qiao in a neat suit at a certain high-end banquet, the faces of the objects of his sexual dreams at night all changed.
It's fine if it's just difficult, that guy still has a date!
Zhang Ruiyao propped his chin with one hand, and when the host was talking about love luck with the guests, he couldn't help but walk away and pay attention.
"Zhang Tianshi, do you think if you have a crush on someone, should you tell them?" The host finally brought the topic to him.
The handsome Tianshi, who has quite adapted to the rhythm of the TV, used a smile to hide the pause after his distraction, and said slowly: "I think it depends on whether this person deserves a better partner. If the person he is dating is not as good as me, Why don't I fight for it? If you really like him, you should make him happier instead of living in the current short life."
The host immediately gossiped excitedly: "Is Zhang Tianshi talking about himself?"
"Well, it's for myself and for all the audience. I think we shouldn't always let our emotions be too restrained, and release them appropriately so that pessimism can be extinguished in the bud."
Yan Jiu, who was watching the video replay on the phone screen, was stunned for a while with his smile.
"What are you looking at?" It was a rare holiday, and Young Master Qiao, who ran to his house to play games, glanced at his phone while eating snow cakes.
"Zhang Ruiyao's show. It seems to be quite popular. Domestic video sites already have his columns."
"Oh, this guy whose face is worth more than his ability can only go on TV to cheat on underage girls."
"Brother, you look much better than him..." He couldn't help but stop in the middle of his words.Qiao Yuan is most annoyed by others asking him to become a star. Yan Jiu has stepped on thunder once before, and will never step on it again.
But he didn't know that Qiao Yuan's attitude towards him now is "the deeper you love the better, it's best to pounce on you every day." Hearing this, the corners of his lips raised even higher, and he just snorted arrogantly , then wagged his tail and continued playing the game.
Just when Yan Jiu was muttering about who was so unlucky to be spotted by Zhang Ruiyao, Qiao Yuan's cell phone rang.
After picking up the phone absently, Young Master Qiao turned on the speakerphone, keeping both hands on the game controller.
"Qiao Yuan?" Even though Zhang Ruiyao's voice was amplified by the hands-free, there was still a bit of obvious tenderness.
Yan Jiu rolled his eyes.
Qiao Yuan frowned slightly.
"Are you free tonight? How about I treat you to dinner?" The other end obviously didn't know that his warm words were being heard clearly by the third person, and continued to say flirtatiously: "What do you like to eat?"
Qiao Yuan glanced at Yan Jiu who was still in a daze, suddenly smiled viciously, and said to the other end, "Why invite me to dinner all of a sudden?"
"If you don't fight, you don't know each other. After the fight, there must be a chance to get to know each other." Zhang Ruiyao said very reasonable.
"Oh," Qiao Yuan pinched Yan Jiu's chin, "Okay, where to eat?"
"You come to decide? After all, you are more familiar with this city." Zhang Ruiyao was even more happy to find that the other party did not intend to refuse.
"Then at XHOTEL, but I want to take someone with me, okay?" Qiao Yuan pinched Yan Jiu's mouth into a pig's mouth, and said to the phone with a smile: "Come on, Xiao Jiu, say hello to Zhang Tianshi. "
The other end was quiet for a while, and then I heard Yan Jiu's wail, then the sound of Qiao Yuan throwing the person down with a smile and then gnawed a kiss, and finally Yan Jiu struggled and said "I won't go" protest.
Zhang Ruiyao set a time for dinner with Qiao Yuan without changing his expression. After hanging up the phone, he snorted and threw the phone aside.
"How is it?" Qiao Yuan pressed Yan Jiu and asked proudly.
"How about what?" He played dumb.
"Are you really not jealous just now?"
"Why are you jealous?"
"...Have you eaten yet?" The voice lowered.
"Ahhh... eat, eat! Brother, don't pull my pants, I ate! I'm so jealous!"
For many reasons, Taoism is now pushed to the margins in the country where it was conceived.
When you save the souls of the dead, it is difficult to see the Taoist priests who set up altars.

The young man who was stuck in the toilet looked down at the boy who was a head shorter than himself in surprise, looked at him with a sneer and said to himself, "Hey, you are like a rabbit being raised by the young master now".
If an older person said this to him, Yan Jiu might feel a little sad, but the child in front of him is not only arrogant, but also half a round younger than himself, why should he blame himself like this?
Besides, he was no longer the coward who had no confidence at all.

Just when Yan Jiu was muttering about who was so unlucky to be spotted by Zhang Ruiyao, Qiao Yuan's cell phone rang.
Joe, who was absent-mindedly connected to the phone, clicked on the speakerphone, keeping his hands on the gamepad all the time.
"Qiao Yuan?" Even though Zhang Ruiyao's voice was amplified by the hands-free, there was still a bit of obvious tenderness.
Yan Jiu rolled his eyes.
Qiao Yuan frowned slightly.
"Are you free tonight? How about I treat you to dinner?" The other end obviously didn't know that his warm words were being heard clearly by the third person, and continued to say flirtatiously: "What do you like to eat?"
