Bai Shan took Man Bao to draw lots. Each person had a lottery tube, and soon a lot came out.

Man Bao looked at it and handed it to Shoucai to read, "It's better to sign it."

So does Bai Shan.

County Magistrate Tang felt curious after seeing it, and he also took out the lottery tube and shook a lottery ticket, and found that it was also signed.

He then looked at the signature tube, wanting to take out all the signatures inside and take a look.

Shoucai had already put away the lottery tube with a smile, and said to the three of them: "Senior brother is in the quiet room in the backyard. Can you go find him to interpret the lottery?"

Magistrate Tang went to the quiet room with Man Bao and the others with the lottery tickets. On the way, he couldn't help but ask: "Are there more lottery tickets in the lottery tube?"

Man Bao nodded, "Yes, Daoxu said, there are just a few low and winning numbers in it, and basically no one can draw the winning number."

"Why is this?"

Manbao said: "Taoist Master Shouqing said that the seven emotions hurt the will. Since believers come to the temple to pray, it is probably because they have encountered difficulties. People have worries, sadness hurts the liver, and also hurts the essence. Now say some nice words to make them happy.

It’s always good for people to balance joy with sorrow.”

Manbao paused and then said: "I think Taoist Master Shouqing is right. The "Huangdi Neijing" also records the method of suppressing emotions. Although I have never used it, I have seen records in medical books and there are many famous doctors.

Everyone likes to use this method."

Magistrate Tang looked at the sign in his hand and asked, "Then you are still going to cancel the sign?"

Now that we know the root cause, what’s the point of trying to unravel the signature?

Bai Shan said: "Although I know the reason, I am still very happy to get the lucky draw. Moreover, the text of each lucky draw is different. The one you draw always has some special meaning."

County Magistrate Tang shook his head and said with a smile: "I know, you don't believe it, but you still believe it. You only want to believe in the good side. When you encounter the bad side, you have to think about believing in ghosts and gods."

Bai Shan said matter-of-factly: "We are mortals."

Man Bao stared at Magistrate Tang, "Master Tang, are you happy with the signature now?"

Magistrate Tang: "...happy."

Bai Shan couldn't help but smile.

They went to Taoist Priest Shouqing to interpret their signatures. Taoist Shouqing looked at the faces of Man Bao and Bai Shan and praised them a lot, asking them to relax and have a smooth road ahead. Then he accepted their signatures and looked at Magistrate Tang.

.

Apparently, Madam Liu and Mr. Qian had approached Taoist Shouguang, so Taoist Shouguang made a show of having a pleasant conversation with Magistrate Tang, pretended to be polite, and discussed it some more.

Man Bao and Bai Shan sat aside and watched their polite discussions, but they did not find it interesting at all to listen to what their husband and Taoist Master Shouqing were talking about.

After talking for a long time, Taoist Shouqing felt that time was enough, so he served tea to see off the guests.

Master Tang was not familiar with him and could not have an in-depth conversation, so he wisely stood up and left.

Several stalls have been set up on the lawn in front of the Taoist temple. I don’t know how they were carried on the backs of things. They are steaming now.

The hungry Magistrate Tang couldn't help but swallowed with Manbao Baishan.

Bai Erlang was squatting next to a rock and playing with his friends. When he looked up and saw the two of them, he ran over and shouted unhappily: "Where have you been running all day? My dad said you just

On the mountain, I searched through the Taoist temples but couldn't find you."

Man Bao: "That was really unlucky. I just missed it."

Man Bao swallowed his saliva, pointed at the things on the stalls and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"have eaten."

Bai Shan asked: "Which restaurant has the best food?"

"The wontons from that store are the best, the naan bread from that store is the worst, and the others are just average."

The three of them turned around and sat down at the wonton stall. Man Bao said loudly: "I want five bowls of wontons."

Magistrate Tang looked at the portion and asked, "Have you finished eating?"

"There are also Daji and your Mingli." Manbao looked at him strangely, "One bowl per person isn't too much, right?"

Magistrate Tang nodded.

"Ah, Magistrate Tang, why are you here?" Bai Erlang on the side exclaimed.

County Magistrate Tang:......

He paused for a while before looking at Man Bao and Bai Shan and asked, "Is he always so slow to react?"

Bai Shan: "Absolutely. You'll get used to it."

Bai Er shouted: "You said bad things about me in front of me, isn't that too much?"

"No, it's not a bad word, it's the truth." Man Bao said: "You didn't see such a big living person standing next to us until now."

Bai Er didn't want to pay attention to them anymore, and stood up to leave, but thinking about it, he sat back and asked, "What were you doing so early this morning? Why didn't you call me?"

Man Bao and Bai Shan looked at each other and decided not to tell him, so they said: "I just walked around the end of the village. You came out too fast. We came by car. What's the use of coming so early? There's no excitement yet."

It’s starting.”

"Who comes to attend the temple fair and comes by car? In previous years, didn't we all come here on foot?"

A friend came to Bai Er and asked, "Bai Er, are you going to find the bamboo rats? It's almost dark. Hey, Aunt Man, you're here too. Bai Shan, are you two going?"

"

Man Bao and Bai Shan shook their heads together, looked at Bai Er and said, "It's getting dark soon."

"What are you afraid of when it's dark? We have to go back after midnight."

Bai Shan said: "Then don't run far away. If you go into the mountains without lights, we won't go in to look for you if we can't find them."

"Don't worry, we go there every year to catch bamboo rats. We'll be back as soon as the sun goes down." After that, he pulled Bai Er and ran away.

Magistrate Tang followed the two of them to experience the temple fair here. After they finished eating the wontons, they went to taste some snacks. At the time of Youshi, the bell in the temple rang, and Taoist priest Shouqing came out of the temple.

, he randomly found an open space to sit down and preached to everyone.

To put it very simply, it just teaches you how to relax your mind and how to live a long and healthy life.

Magistrate Tang listened for a long time and found it quite boring. He was a little distracted and observed the believers who came to listen. He saw that they listened very seriously and muttered the words, as if they wanted to memorize them all.

Magistrate Tang touched his chin and asked, "Do you have sermons at every temple fair here?"

Man Bao nodded, "Most of them talked about ways to maintain good health and how to behave in the world. Taoist Master Shouqing said that if he said anything else, everyone wouldn't understand it and wouldn't use it."

Magistrate Tang asked with a smile: "Have you ever heard of Changbo?"

"I've heard that, Magistrate Yang praised Taoist Shouguang for his good lectures, and even wrote an article praising the Taoist temple," Man Bao said, "Magistrate Yang said that this was to enlighten the people's wisdom, and nothing else.

Teaching people how to maintain their health can make them live longer, and teaching people how to live in the world is the merit of education. Therefore, Magistrate Yang also allocated the land at the foot of the mountain to the Taoist temple as a reward."

Magistrate Tang touched his chin and said, "You admire him so much?"

Bai Shanze said: "It was originally a wasteland. Magistrate Yang just asked people to clear it out. Daoxu also told me that you can't grow anything else on the dry land, only beans. It's not as good as what they did on the mountain."

Where’s the fertilizer?”

Magistrate Tang couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Let me just say, he has always been stingy."

Manbao replied to Magistrate Yang, "That's much more generous than you."
