Chapter 528 Master's Blessing
Chapter 528 Master's Blessing
Kongkanfu is a small town in the south of Atai. It has a beautiful environment and is a well-known tourist town that attracts many tourists.
There are many special local foods in the town, which are very popular among tourists from all over the world.
After Su Qing arrived at Kongkan Mansion, she was not in a hurry to find Master Zhang. After all, she had come to Atai with great difficulty, and she felt that she should first enjoy the local food and experience the local characteristics.
"Girl, are you here to travel?" Because many people from Xiangcheng come to this small town to travel, the local vendors can speak some Xiangcheng language. Su Qing casually walked into a small restaurant. When the restaurant proprietress saw Su Qing, she immediately asked with a smile.
It was not time for dinner, so there were not many people in the restaurant. The proprietress saw that Su Qing was pretty and wanted to say a few more words to her.
"Yes." Su Qing smiled faintly: "Everyone says that the scenery here is beautiful, so I came to take a look and try the delicious food here."
"Oh, then you've come to the right place." The lady boss said to Su Qing with a smile, "The scenery here is very beautiful. Everyone who comes here has good things to say about it. Besides, you've come to the right place and you've come at the right time."
Hearing what the boss lady said, Su Qing was a little curious: "What do you mean?"
"Today is the day when the master distributes amulets for free. Anyone who goes to see the master today can get one for free. Hang the amulet at home or carry it with you to keep safe." The lady boss smiled at Su Qing and said, "I will also go to see the master later to get a amulet."
"Amulets?" Su Qing asked, "You mean, the masters here will distribute amulets for free today?"
Su Qing had a bad feeling in her heart. Throughout history, anything free was generally not a good thing. Although she did not understand these masters, she knew that if these masters wanted to draw amulets, they would have to consume something. For example, her wood-related ability also required consumption of ability to control plants.
And this master will distribute amulets widely today, so the scale of the distribution is not small. After all, Kongkan Prefecture is a tourist town. Not to mention the permanent population in this town, even the number of people coming to travel cannot be underestimated. With so many people, the number of amulets needed is definitely not small.
Su Qing felt that this master, who was willing to spend so much energy just to give out amulets to everyone for free, was either a saint who truly cared about the world and was compassionate, or an evil person with ulterior motives.
I just don’t know who this master is and whether he is related to Master Zhang.
"Yes." The proprietress smiled and said, "Miss, you are from Xiangcheng, right?"
"Yes." Su Qing nodded.
"Oh my, I can tell you're from Xiangcheng." The lady boss said with a smile, "The girls in Xiangcheng are all pretty. By the way, this master is also your Xiangcheng's Feng Shui master. He now lives in our Kongkan Mansion. He not only has many disciples, but also often sends blessings to the people here."
Su Qing looked surprised: "He is actually the master of our Xiangcheng."
After hearing this, Su Qing had a clue in her mind. This so-called master should be the disciple of Master Wen. Haha, since he has a disciple like Master Zhang, Su Qing doesn't think that the disciple of Master Wen would be a good person. There must be some shameful means behind this act of distributing amulets.
"Yes." The lady boss smiled and said, "This master is really good. If our children can worship this master as their teacher, not only can they learn skills, but their family members can also benefit from it. Not only will they receive money every month, but they will also receive a lot of things. It can be said that the whole family will be supported by him and live a very good life."
The proprietress said this with a look of envy on her face.
Su Qing couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly: "So, if there are so many benefits to becoming a disciple, then there must be many people vying to become this master's master."
"That's right." The proprietress replied, "In fact, I also want my son to become an apprentice, but many children who become apprentices rarely go home. Apart from receiving money and things at home, the children basically don't get to see them. I only have this one son, and I am a little reluctant to let him go. Besides, I have this small restaurant, and I can make a living. I can't not see my son."
The lady boss smiled and said, "Oh, I can only envy you."
The boss lady's words startled Su Qing. The children who became her apprentices almost never went home. Where could they have gone?
So Su Qing hurriedly asked, "Then don't those families whose children have become disciples miss their children? Don't they ask how their children are doing?"
"Well, there are many children. If one or two of them don't come back, you don't have to worry too much. Besides, there are things and money to take, and the whole family will have no worries about food and clothing, so there is no need to worry about anything. After worshipping the master, it is considered as giving it away." The proprietress said, "Unlike me, I gave birth to such a precious child. If I can't see my son, I can't bear it."
It turned out to be the case.
Su Qing thought to herself that there were many children in the family, and one or two of them could bring money and benefits to the family. So whether that child came back or not was naturally not that important, and she would not inquire about the child's situation.
But, is this the case for all families?
Thinking about it, Su Qing asked, "Could it be that all families are like this, that the children worship the master as their teacher, and then they just ignore the children?"
"How could that be?" the lady boss said, "There were also families who missed their children and went to inquire about them. But I heard that the master had compassion for those who went to inquire about the children, so he allowed them to visit the children. Some families came back after seeing the children, and some families did not want to be separated from their children, so the master arranged for them to live with the children."
Su Qing asked calmly: "Since you don't have to be separated from your child, why don't you let your son become a disciple?"
"I just don't want to leave my hometown." The proprietress smiled and said, "I heard from those who came back that their children are all abroad. To become a disciple, you have to practice and go out to gain experience. So, everyone is not in the country. If you want to be with your children, you can only stay abroad together. I am a homebody and don't want to go to a place where I am unfamiliar with the place."
The boss lady's words made Su Qing feel even heavier in her heart. It seemed that her previous guess might have been right.
The people behind Xiangcheng Hetianhui are probably the so-called "masters" here!
