Qingning shook her big tail proudly behind her and held a yellowed piece of paper in front of Shen Liang.

The yellowed paper is filled with a lot of messy words, "The inferior Taoist temple contributes 20% of the incense beliefs obtained", "If there is something important, it will need to contribute 40%", "The damage is too great, and it needs to be added" and so on.

"Qing Ning came back and ran into two Taoist priests with disheveled clothes and strange expressions. The paper fell from them." Qing Ning pointed to the paper in her hand and said proudly, "With Qing Ning's wisdom, she glanced at the paper and thought of a solution to the current problem of Taoist Master Stupid. If Taoist Master Stupid, I guess I couldn't understand it for a month after looking at the paper."

Chen Liang had no choice but to smile bitterly helplessly, and determined that what Qing Ning was talking about was the two Taoist people before. As for the Taoist names of these two people, he didn't remember which Taoist temple they came from.

"The Taoist temples in Qingzhou are recorded here, which are divided into upper-class Taoist temples, medium-class Taoist temples, and inferior Taoist temples. The Taoist temples protect each other, but they need to extract incense beliefs from them as rewards." Qing Ning explained to Chen Liang seriously.

Chen Liang thought about it a little, remembering the Taoist who was injured and called seemed to have mentioned this matter. The Taoist temple they were in would protect Jiangyang Temple, but they wanted to offer incense and faith.

"Since that's the case, Taoist priest, our Jiangyang Temple will become the largest Taoist temple in Qingzhou. Let all the Taoist temples in Qingzhou be protected by us, and give us the incense and belief." Qing Ning found the highest place in front of Jiangyang Temple, stood up with tiptoe and trembling, and looked extremely powerful. She then accumulated enough strength and shouted at Chen Liang loudly.

After saying the call loudly, Qingning was a little breathless, but she was still standing on tiptoe and staring at Chen Liang blankly.

Listening to the proposal that suddenly made loud noise, Chen Liang was paying attention to Qingning, who was standing at the door at the moment, and looked at her trembling and barely maintaining her majestic posture.

"Master Stupid Taoist, although you are stupid and idiot, you should have been stupid to Qingning's opinion. But Master Stupid Taoist is the Taoist chosen by Qingning. In fact, there are still a little bit of power that is easy to beat the Taoist in Qingzhou. Master Stupid Taoist, let Jiangyang Temple become the largest top Taoist temple in Qingzhou!" While breathing, Qingning stood at the door of Jiangyang Temple and continued to speak loudly to Chen Liang. Because of the importance, she accumulated enough energy to repeat the last sentence, "Master Stupid Taoist, let Jiangyang Temple become the largest top Taoist temple in Qingzhou!"

Seeing Qingning's spirit, Chen Liang stood there and smiled, thinking carefully about Qingning's words, which would make Jiangyang Temple the biggest Taoist temple in Qingzhou.

"It is not difficult to make Jiangyang Temple the largest Taoist temple in Qingzhou." Chen Liang said naturally, "There are only a thousand ants around Jiangyang Temple. This month has disturbed me and even my cultivation has been disturbed. As for Qingzhou, the number of ants is even more terrifying. I don't know how many millions. When Jiangyang Temple becomes Qingzhou's largest Taoist temple, I have to face these chattering ants all day long, and even if I have two and three guards, I can't feel at ease."

As for Chen Liang's concern, Qingning, who stood on tiptoe on a high place, blinked his little eyes sly, thinking that his stupid Taoist priest was really stupid. After playing with this power, Qingning no longer tiptoes on his feet, but stood on a high place as usual, correcting his stupid idea: "Jiangyang Temple only needs to protect other Taoist temples to survive well and not be destroyed by the Qingzhou Confucianism, those useless Taoist temples can solve all the annoying guys and their annoying requests."

"So, Jiang Yang Temple has become the biggest Taoist temple. The stupid Taoist priest is still a stupid Taoist priest, and Jiang Yang Temple is still this dilapidated Taoist priest. You won't have many opportunities to shake off your might in front of Qing Ning, but you will only be able to face those tricky Confucian scholars."

The method Qing Ning said would leave the solution to the secular people's demands to other Taoist temples, and Jiangyang Temple would not be involved at all. What Jiangyang Temple should do is that no matter how difficult the Confucians in Qingzhou make it difficult, there is no need for many Taoist temples to join forces. Just relying on Jiangyang Temple can ensure that these Taoist temples are well established in Qingzhou. With this, Jiangyang Temple can obtain incense beliefs from other Taoist temples.

"As long as I stay in Jiangyang Temple for one day, the Confucianism in Qingzhou will not be as rampant as it is, and the Taoist sect will not decline because of this. Although the struggle between Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism is really boring, this matter sounds a bit interesting." Chen Liang thought about it carefully and found that Qingning's idea was a bit interesting. "In my opinion, if I just use the external Taoist craftsmanship, there are still people in Qingzhou who can protect themselves and not be killed by me. If I use the inner Taoist craftsmanship, the two most famous Confucian sages in Qingzhou may not lose to me. It would be good to use these ants that can barely catch my eyes as the training of my Taoist craftsmanship. When the things determined by the way of heaven come, I will have more solutions to deal with them."

Now the only concern that Chen Liang is considering is the illusory but cruel and ruthless way of heaven. I don’t know what the disaster he will face under the brewing of this never-failed way of heaven, and when will that disaster come.

Maybe, I want to enter this boring dispute between Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism, which is the arrangement of the ruthless way of heaven.

Her opinion was adopted, Qingning smiled and felt inexplicably proud. She glanced at the contents on the paper again and made a decision: "Master Stupid Taoist, the first Taoist temple we went to is Baiyun Temple above. After going to Na'anshi City, Qingning can still stroll around."

"It's really troublesome to come and find the biggest Taoist temple. Since you want to be the biggest Taoist temple, then you can find the biggest Taoist temple and let that Taoist temple be protected by me." Chen Liang shook his head and said, suddenly he changed his tone and asked Qingning, "Do you know where the biggest Taoist temple in Qingzhou is?"

Qing Ning stared at her big eyes and thought for a while, shook her head and said how she knew.

"Then do you know which Taoist temple is the largest in Qingzhou?" Chen Liang continued to ask.

The answer was the same as before, and Qingning was unaware of it.

"Then I will go to Baiyun Temple in person and let this Baiyun Temple survive under my protection. Then let the Taoist in Baiyun Temple come forward and call the master of the largest Taoist temple in Qingzhou to see me." Chen Liang thought for a moment and made a decision.

Although he went to Baiyun Temple in person to reduce his identity, Chen Lian did not hesitate much in his heart in order to face the laws of heaven. What's more, he decided to reduce his identity and go to the secular world in this way, which was only this time.

After everything was settled, Chen Liang and the others set out to Anshi City the next day.

The second and third men did not squat at the door of Jiangyang Temple, but were arranged by Chen Liang to stay in the Taoist temple, asking them to guard Jiangyang Temple. If they had time, they could go to the Taoist temple to learn the Taoist techniques.

When Qingning was very happy when she thought of going to the bustling town, there were so many foods she had never eaten before, and when she went with Taoist Ben, she was very happy. Even though it suddenly started to rain heavily on the evening of the third day, it could not stop her good mood.

For Chen Liang, he had long stopped eating grains and was not afraid of wind and rain, but his Taoist children were not afraid of them. Therefore, when the heavy rain suddenly came, he still found a thatched hut for Qingning to rest in a nearby village.

The owner of the hut was an old lady in her fifties and sixties, and her children were not in the village. Although she was a little slow in her movements, she looked quite energetic. Before, when she saw Chen Liang and the others coming from the rain at the window, she quickly opened the door of the hut and let them in and welcomed them warmly.

"Young man, aren't you a Taoist in the nearby Taoist temple?" Seeing Qing Ning sitting down in the room, the old lady also found herself on the bed in the room, looked at Chen Liang for a long time and said.

Whether it was the Wang family's house or the small thatched hut now, it was not much different for Chen Liang. They were all residences of ants. If it weren't for the purpose of settling Qingning, he wouldn't have stepped into this place at all.

So, after entering the hut, he stood there, and although the old lady asked, she was too lazy to answer.

Qing Ning was a little interested, and sat at a wooden table, supported her little face with both hands and asked curiously: "We ran over from afar, and there was no place to get wet, but why did the old lady know so clearly?"

"Although I'm old and have little memory, there are so many Taoist temples around me, and what clothes are some Taoists wearing in the Taoist temple? No one in the village will know better than me." When the old lady heard Qing Ning's question, she became interested and her eyes shone with excitement.

ah!

Qingning exclaimed in surprise and started to listen with interest.

"When I was young, I was very famous in this village. Because I knew a few words in the village, I could contact the Taoist Taoists every month. No matter what I had to go to the Taoist temple, I had to talk to me first before I could arrange time to enter the Taoist temple." The old lady laughed as she said, and the wrinkles on her face gathered together. "At that time, only the children of the family in the town could learn words. Although they were illiterate in the village, they all believed in everything that the Taoist temple said."

"Later, how did the village change later?" Qing Ning became interested in the village suddenly after listening to what the old lady said, and quickly asked.

"All this has naturally changed! Because the people in the village found that many things in the past did not rely on these Taoists, and did not have to go to Taoist temples to worship incense, and could solve them by just talking to the Confucian scholars in the academy. They could even go to the academy to study, learning what only the family children could learn in the past. As long as they learn these things and sense the Chinese Valentine's Day, they could still solve these problems by themselves."

"So, some of the young people in the village went to study in nearby academies, and some stayed in the village, waiting for the learned men in the city to come to teach knowledge. Although only a few people in our village became Confucian scholars in the academies, since then, everyone no longer believed in Taoism."

"To this day, there is only the last Taoist temple that is about to collapse around the village. No one comes to find me, the old man, nor goes to the Taoist temple to worship. Only when they encounter some things that can be solved by Taoist sects will they remember and go to the Taoist temple to worship."

Every time the old lady said a few words, she would stop and sigh. Unable to withstand the torture of memories for so long, she hunched over and sat on the bed as depressed as a person who had lost everything. She spoke in a weak tone, slowly echoing the changes that happened in this small village, which took a long time.

At this time, the rain outside the window became heavier, and it hit the crackling sound, completely covering up the soft sound that told the changes of the small village for decades.
