Chapter 1717 Looking forward to your wonderful performance
"Shopkeeper Yu" was breathing weakly and his eyes were slightly closed.
Several doctors were helpless after examining the patient.
At this moment, the discussions outside became more and more intense.
Shopkeeper Yu said to the boy, "Go and see what's going on outside. Why is there so much noise?"
The servant nodded: "Okay, I'll go right away."
When he looked outside, he saw several people dressed as attendants stopping an old Taoist priest, kowtowing and bowing to them.
There were many people around watching the fun.
"Master, thanks to you, my old lady is now out of danger."
"My master and son would like to express their gratitude to you."
"I wanted to give you a big reward, but you left as soon as I turned around. I sent you here to find you. This is a thank you gift. Please keep it well."
As the attendant spoke, he took out a purse that he had prepared. This purse was two times larger than an ordinary one, and it was bulging and stuffed full.
Everyone who was watching was envious.
"Such a large bag of silver!"
"The Qiu family is really generous."
"Haven't you heard? The Taoist priest saved their old lady's life. For one life, this little money is not much, right?"
"That's true, but if I see a doctor, it won't cost that much."
"The doctor can't cure her, can he? The old lady's illness is unusual."
"It is said that it is tainted with evil spirits."
Someone in the crowd asked loudly: "Master, what is the old lady's illness? Can you tell us?"
Yan Ruyu heard it clearly, and glanced in the direction of the sound, and saw Beibei pinching his throat and covering his mouth.
Zhao Yan was also next to them, and the two of them were laughing secretly.
Yan Ruyu couldn't help but curl up the corner of her mouth. The abbot was really good at finding people to stir up trouble and enjoy the fun.
She didn't care, she was just here to watch the fun.
When the followers of the Qiu family heard this, they cleared their throats and said, "My old lady has been feeling unwell for a while. She has consulted several doctors but none of them have cured her. The Taoist priest came to my door that day and said that there was an evil spirit rising to the sky."
"The Taoist priest had a pair of sharp eyes. He saw the old lady's condition at a glance and started to exorcise the evil spirits. This saved the old lady from danger."
Everyone exclaimed in amazement.
The Taoist priest from Kunshan flicked his whisk, smiled slightly, and had an elegant temperament.
"Exorcising evil spirits and eliminating disasters is my duty."
He pushed away the silver handed over by his follower and said, "Money is something outside of my body. I don't care about it. The reason I entered the Qiu family is because of this opportunity with the Qiu family."
Yan Ruyu sneered silently and spoke as if it were true.
Then Beibei said, "What are the symptoms of the old lady? Could it be that she is like being poisoned and can't control herself?"
Zhao Yan immediately responded with a surprised tone: "How is this possible? How old is Old Madam Qiu?"
"That's not necessarily true," Beibei said sarcastically, "I heard that Madam Qiu became a widow at a young age. Although she is old now, she is still lonely. This..."
When the Qiu family followers heard this, their expressions suddenly changed: "Who is talking nonsense?"
"My old lady is a very virtuous woman, and has never done anything unbecoming."
"You are a servant and you can't even go to the backyard, how would you know?" Beibei asked back.
"Can you go to the backyard?"
The follower's eyes changed and he immediately replied, "Of course not."
A smile flashed across Yan Ruyu's eyes. There is a saying that goes, when you are arguing, don't prove yourself, otherwise you will fall into the other party's trap.
Seeing the questioning voices in the crowd, the followers became even more panicked.
In the carriage at the intersection, Qiu Keshi heard it clearly and his face turned green with anger.
"These bastards can't even make sense of their quarrel."
"Instead of just getting things done, you drag my grandmother into this. How ridiculous."
Taoist Priest Kunshan couldn't stand it anymore and cleared his throat to remind him.
"Everyone, I know your intentions, and I wish you all the best. I'll take my leave now, and we'll see you later."
The followers' thoughts were finally brought back to normal, and they hurriedly asked, "Master, where are we going?"
As they talked, their eyes glanced towards Manager Yu's shop.
I wondered why the person inside hasn’t come out after talking for so long?
How can we sing this play if we don’t come out?
The servant was also watching with great interest and almost died of laughter at Beibei's words just now.
Seeing that it was almost time, he tried to find his state and shouted, "Master, please stay!"
When the followers saw him, they exchanged looks, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Here he comes."
The servant said with just the right amount of urgency: "Master, could you please take a look at my shopkeeper's?"
Taoist Priest Kunshan was waiting for this moment.
But it still has to be pushed.
"My dear friend, I am about to go on a journey."
Just as the boy was about to speak, Beibei said, "Hey, didn't the Taoist priest just say that exorcising evil spirits and eliminating disasters is our duty? You're saying the same thing again now."
Zhao Yan said, "Could it be that you found that Manager Yu's condition was serious and you were afraid that you couldn't cure him, so you refused?"
The servant took the opportunity to continue, "Please Taoist priest, please save our shopkeeper. Even if it doesn't work, then... I won't blame you. Please don't worry."
The Taoist priest of Kunshan was furious. He was just trying to shirk responsibility and make excuses. Isn't this the usual style of the masters?
If you agree immediately when someone asks you, that would be too cheap.
But now, after hearing what these people said, it seemed that he was leaving out of guilt and was afraid that the disease could not be cured.
How abominable.
Yan Ruyu glanced at the carriage at the corner of the street. She didn't pay much attention to it at first, but the carriage was parked there and never moved. Just now, she saw the curtain was lifted, revealing Qiu Keshi's face.
I'm also worried, so I came here to keep an eye on it.
Well, let him see with his own eyes how the plan failed.
The Taoist priest on the other side didn't dare to refuse anymore, for fear that people would misunderstand that he was afraid.
He pretended to be serious, flicked his whisk and counted with his fingers.
Seeing him like this, people around him gradually quieted down.
Yan Ruyu was watching when suddenly the space vibrated.
She took a few steps back, to a pillar in front of a store, and her consciousness entered the space.
The abbot laughed, his tone full of contempt: "Did you see that? He couldn't even pinch his fingers correctly. He's really an amateur."
Yan Ruyu asked: "How do you know it's wrong?"
"Tsk, have you ever seen a pig run before eating pork? I've watched a lot of Hong Kong movies before, and there are a lot of Taoist priests like this, and they don't pinch like this."
Yan Ruyu: "..."
"Are you ready? I'm going to see Shopkeeper Yu soon."
The abbot couldn't contain his excitement: "It's ready a long time ago. Their process is too slow. I can't wait!"
"I'm telling you, Ruyu, I've prepared some high-tech means to make sure this guy reveals his true form."
"Okay, I look forward to your wonderful performance."
Yan Ruyu was in a good mood too. This was a farce in itself, so why not make it a bigger one.
Maybe you'll catch a bigger fish.
Even if not, it's good to have some fun, just as it can be a lesson for the people so that they won't be easily deceived again.
As soon as she changed her mind, she came out of the space and saw Taoist Master Kunshan was about to go in with the servant and walk up the stairs.
The Qiu family's entourage, as well as Qiu Keshi in the carriage, all breathed a sigh of relief.
Once you get in, things will be easy.
Unexpectedly, someone suddenly shouted: "Wait!"
