Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the Taoist temple, there are "five masters and eighteen heads" under the eight deacons' rooms, a total of twenty-three Taoist priests in charge. Stepping into this level is equivalent to having a job. According to the world that Zhao Ran traveled to  division, they entered the ranks of "share-level" cadres.

    When Zhao Ran came here two years ago, he was a lay practitioner of fire engineering, which was equivalent to a temporary establishment. In other words, there was no establishment.  After working for more than half a year, Zhao Ran went from having no establishment to becoming a formal Taoist priest with an establishment. He was regarded as entering "within the system", or what is called a clerk-level clerk.  This step is a leap. Countless people try their best to enter the Taoist gate, but after ten years of hard work, they are stuck at this level. In the end, they regret it and go down the mountain, unable to cross this level until their death.

    Now, just over a year later, Yu Zhiyuan actually proposed that he be transferred to the position of door leader, which is equivalent to being promoted from a clerk to a section chief. Although his rank is still a section member, his status is different. It is equivalent to getting through and continuing to climb the ladder.  steps.  What's more, the position of doorman is much more noble than the food, rice, fire, water, etc. in the dormitory. It is a job of dealing with people, not a handyman, and the future prospects are promising.  Expect.

    He became a manager within two years. This speed of promotion is unique even in the entire Wuji Academy.  Zhao Ran felt dizzy as if he had been hit by a pie, and forgot to answer for a moment.

    "What? Do you have other ideas?" Yu Zhiyuan asked.

    "Nothis is of course a good thingbut, I have only been admitted to the high school for two years, and it has only been a year and four months since I entered the incarceration. There are so many senior brothers in the sutra hall, and everyone is older than me, even if it is the monthly examination age  "Take the exam, there are several senior brothers who are at the same level as me"

    Yu Zhiyuan waved his hand and said in a leadership style: "It doesn't matter, there are no laws in Taoism. Transferring to other positions depends on the year. If this is really the case, how did I become the head of the Taoist palace? In those Taoist palaces and temples  The masters never said this when they were transferred, otherwise they would all be a bunch of old men, how could they have done anything? Moreover, you have the award submission from Huayun Pavilion. This is just a certificate, and no one can say anything.  No! I heard that you are eloquent with Deacon Song. If you walk around in Deacon Song¡¯s network, you will be sure of your success - you may not know that Deacon Song is also eloquent in front of the abbot."

    Zhao Ran was so dizzy after being said that he suddenly felt that this door seemed to belong to him, so he bowed deeply to Yu Zhiyuan: "Senior brother, I can't repay my support"

    Yu Zhiyuan waved his hand again and said lightly: "The relationship between you and me is extraordinary. It's enough to just say this. Just wait patiently. When the time is right, I will explain it to you."

    Zhao Ran left Yu Zhiyuan's small courtyard, looked back at the lintel with the word "living hall" hanging on it, and then looked at the closed "Dian Zao" door next to it, feeling envious in his heart.  Yu Zhiyuan, who was promoted to Zhike, had just moved into this small courtyard and lived in the same courtyard with Zhang Dianzao.  Although the residence is more spacious than that of Taoist boys and even stewards like Zhao Ran, this is not what Zhao Ran values.

    Among the Taoist sects, the Zhengyi faction holds secular power, and the discipline is not strict. For example, the eight deacons of Wuji courtyard, the five masters and eighteen heads, etc., have other courtyards and manors at the foot of the mountain or in the county. Compared with Wuji mountain,  The accommodation is a hundred times better.  For example, Song Xunzhao, who lived in a dormitory, had a large house ten miles east of the county with fifty rooms, a garden and pavilions, nine wives and concubines, and dozens of servants.

    But Song Xunzhao still lived in the mountains except for the days when he was resting, and shared the same courtyard with the deacon Dong in the room number. It was probably because being able to live in such a small courtyard represented a kind of status and power, which was ordinary people.  A high position that the gentry could not reach in a lifetime or even several generations.

    Back to the small courtyard where he lived, Zhao Ran threw himself into the quilt and thought for a long time, feeling both excited and anxious.  It was afternoon, and most of the Taoist boys in the courtyard were taking a nap in the house. Zhao Ran turned his ears and could hear snoring.  The room next door was still empty because of Zhu Meng's departure. He thought that Zhu Meng had embarked on a path to immortality that he could not touch, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed.

    "Worrying about gains and losses, Zhao Ran couldn't sit still. He got up and went to the calligraphy desk. He chose a piece of calligraphy that he usually practiced, rolled it up and wrapped it in yellow paper.  After thinking for a while, he dug out five hundred-tael silver notes from the box under the bed.  He originally had more than 5,000 taels of silver, but he spent a thousand taels of silver to pay the ultimatum. Now, seeing that he had to spend another 500 taels of silver, his heart ached.

    Returning to the backyard again, I looked at the door of Song Xunzhao's yard for a moment and saw no one around. I was about to push the door in, but the door opened.  Song Zhiyuan wore a Xiaoyao scarf on his head, a green shirt, and cotton shoes on his feet. He put his hands behind his back and stepped out. He looked like a middle-aged scribe, extremely elegant.

    Seeing Zhao Ran, Song Zhiyuan was stunned and asked, "Is something wrong?"

    Seeing that he was in a hurry to go out, Zhao Ran said, "It's nothing serious. Is the patrol brother going down the mountain? Then I'll come back another day."

    Song Zhiyuan watched itZhao Ran held the calligraphy scroll in his armpit and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. If you are free today, you can follow me down the mountain. Let's talk while walking." He looked at Zhao Ran's clothes again and said: "  Go back and change into regular clothes, it is inconvenient to wear Taoist robes."

    Zhao Ran stopped, turned around, went back to change clothes, ran a few steps, and heard Song Zhiyuan behind him saying: "Did you write this calligraphy? Bring it with you, it will come in handy."

    Zhao Ran rarely went down the mountain on weekdays, and he didn't put much effort into his clothes. He just couldn't stand it anymore. He gave him a few sets of casual clothes, but they were all double-breasted gowns. The cuffs of the gowns were tightened and tied with belts. Typical  The appearance of a gangster.  After changing, Zhao Ran still held the scroll and rushed to the mountain gate.

    Song Zhiyuan had been waiting at the mountain gate for a long time. When he saw Zhao Ran's dress, he smiled slightly, praised "Young people are free and easy" and walked down the mountain.

    There was already a large cart waiting at the foot of the mountain. The handle of the cart looked powerful. Zhao Ran took a closer look and saw that there was a horizontal knife placed beside the shaft of the cart under the driver's feet. He didn't know where it came from.

    Song Zhiyuan asked Zhao Ran to get into the car with him and sit in the carriage. As soon as he sat down, the car started slowly.

    Song Zhiyuan smiled at Zhao Ran, who was crowded in the opposite corner: "Don't be restrained, sit down and relax Let me take a look at this calligraphy."

    Zhao Ran handed over the calligraphy banner, and Song Zhiyuan took it and unfolded it to look at it, then nodded and said: "Good calligraphy. I was in a hurry when I came out, and there was nothing around me, so I accepted your calligraphy and gave it away."

    Zhao Ran is naturally capable, but Song Zhiyuan is different from Yu Zhiyuan. Although he also understands calligraphy and painting, he does not have a hobby. He sends calligraphy scrolls by himself. Yu Zhiyuan uses them as treasures, but Song Zhiyuan may not take them seriously. Therefore,  He took out five hundred-tael silver notes from his arms and handed them over: "Senior Brother Patrol, I recently went down the mountain to do some fasting rituals, and I got some benefits. Senior Brother, I have always taken good care of my Junior Brother. After thinking about it, Junior Brother  , I don¡¯t know how to repay you, so I have to bring out some common things, I just hope that my senior brother will not look down upon me.¡±

    Five 100-tael silver notes were pushed to Song Zhiyuan's feet. Song Zhiyuan's brows jumped and he smiled strangely and said: "What kind of ritual can earn 500 taels of book ritual? Junior brother, you are a big deal. Which one are you talking about?"

    Zhao Ran said respectfully: "Senior Brother Yu has been promoted to guest in the living room, and the vacant position of doormanSenior Brother Yu said that he intends to fill it with me. He will report it to the prison, but this matter still requires the patrolling senior brother to help.  I would like to say a few kind words in front of the prison and Sandu. Senior Brother Yu said, Junior Brother, my homework has been good since I was admitted to the hospital, and I also received a commendation report from the Huayun Pavilion, so I am barely qualified to take over. In our Wuji courtyard,  Senior Inspector Patrolman has great prestige, and I heard that even the abbot often relies on him, so with the help of Senior Inspector Patroller, I can handle this little matter."

    Song Zhiyuan smiled half-heartedly, looked at the five hundred taels of silver notes in front of him, and sighed: "You don't have to do this. Even if you don't tell me, I will definitely help you. Why do you need to give me more money?"

    Zhao Ran said: "Senior Brother Patrol is willing to help, which is the greatest concern for my junior brother. But affection comes from friendship. Senior brother helps run errands and pleads for mercy. You can't even ask senior brother to pay for the money. Senior brother will keep the money first.  If it¡¯s not enough, Junior Brother, I will make up for it.¡±

    Song Zhiyuan was silent, making Zhao Ran's mind suddenly sink. After thinking about it, he always felt that Song Zhiyuan should have readily agreed to this matter. Why did he seem to be evading it now?

    Sure enough, Song Zhiyuan finally said: "This matter will have to wait for some time."

    Thanks to Xiaoshi and Brother Yangzhigang for a reward.
