I really don't want to be a teacher

Lian Ge glanced at Hu Xianshou, but still poured him a glass of water and put it on the table.

At the same time, he reached out and took the envelope that Hu Xianshou handed over.

Feeling the thickness a little, it was about 2 to [-] yuan, Lian Ge didn't care much, and put the thick paper envelope containing the money on the side of the table.

"...Master Lian, I don't know how your consulting fee is calculated, Master Lian, have you seen enough?"

"That's enough." Lian Ge nodded slightly and said, "I didn't do anything, and I deserved so much money."

"Master Lian, don't say that. Although you only stayed for a while, you still found that beast." Hu Xianshou shook his head, and then said seriously.

Hearing this, Lian Ge didn't say any more nonsense,

"Then, Mr. Hu, are you here just to give money?" Lian Ge asked casually.

Hearing this, Hu Xianshou hesitated for a while, and then said:

"Master Lian, there is indeed one more thing."

After a pause, Hu Xianshou looked at Lian Ge, "Master Lian, I still hope that you can preside over my mother's funeral."

Hearing this, Lian Ge glanced at Hu Xianshou,

"Are you sure?" Lian Ge sat down at the desk again, looked away from Hu Xianshou, and continued,

"Remember what I told you? My fee is very expensive. If you really let me do something, it's not the price."

"I understand, Master Lian..."

"Listen to me first," Lian Ge waved his hand and continued,

"First of all, presiding over funerals and saving dead souls is not something I am good at. Secondly, the murderer who killed your mother has been punished, and her grievances should dissipate. That is to say, you can just find a gentleman.

Finally, if you still want me to preside over your mother's funeral, my fee will be... one-fifth of your estate. "

Hearing this, Hu Xianshou remained silent and did not give an answer immediately.

Lian Ge was not in a hurry, picked up the book, flipped through it casually, and quietly waited for the answer.

He said this not because he didn't want to make money, but because he was afraid that if he didn't make it clear, he wouldn't be able to get the money in the end.

……

Finally, when Lian Ge opened another page of the book, Hu Xianshou looked at Lian Ge again,

"Okay, Master Lian, just follow your rules." Hu Xianshou nodded, and continued to add,

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, Master Lian, if you say it, my family property may not add up to 30..."

Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at Hu Xianshou again, smiled slightly,

"Mr. Hu, don't worry, your fifty or sixty thousand yuan will be well spent."

"Master Lian, I believe in you."

"However, there is one more thing. If I are asked to preside over the funeral, it may take a few days, is it acceptable?" Lian Ge got up again and said,

"Yes. In fact, it's just right. The police also said that it will take some time to conduct a detailed autopsy on my mother." Hu Xianshou nodded in response,

"That……"

"Dong dong..."

Before Hu Xianshou could finish his words, there was a knock on the open courtyard door.

Hearing the reputation, an old man who staggered a little walked into the courtyard of Lian Ge's house.

"Great Uncle,"

Lian Ge went up to meet him and gave him a hand,

"Is there a guest?" Grand Uncle looked at Hu Xianshou who was standing beside him, and said,

"It's from the town next door. Please let me go over to help preside over the funeral." Lian Ge briefly explained.

"Master Lian, I will take my leave first, and I will come to invite you in a few days."

Hu Xianshou said at the right time.

Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded and didn't hold back anymore.

"Okay, then I won't send it away."

……

After a while, Hu Xianshou left, and Lian Ge made another cup of tea for Grand Uncle,

"Grand Uncle, what's the matter with you coming here now?"

Putting the tea on the table in front of Grand Uncle, Lian Ge asked at the same time,

"It's nothing, but the weather is fine today, so I'm going out for a walk. Passing by you, I just wanted to stop by and ask how the preparations for ancestor worship are going, and see if you need help." Mrs. Uncle replied.

Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded first, and then said directly:

"Grand Uncle, the preparations for the ancestor worship ceremony have already begun. I have a general list of items here. I have listed some things needed for the ancestor worship ceremony. You may need to arrange someone to purchase them, Grand Uncle."

"Show me."

"Uncle, wait a moment."

After the words were finished, Lian Ge turned around and walked towards the bedroom, and took the few pages of the list from the bedroom desk.

Returning to the table, handed the list to Grand Uncle,

"Well... what you want is similar to the ancestor worship that your grandfather presided over before." The great uncle took the paper, looked at it and said,

"Okay, I'll ask the villagers to help you buy everything."

Lian Ge nodded when he heard the words, and at the same time couldn't help being a little puzzled,

"Grand Uncle, you mean, my grandfather also listed the list of items I made for you?"

"Yeah, the things are all these things, and the quantity doesn't seem to be much different." Tai Shugong said, and couldn't help but sigh,

"The matter of worshiping the ancestors in this village, it is better to leave it to your Lian family to be more reliable."

Hearing this, Lian Ge was thoughtful, and he copied the list of items, including the quantity, from the relevant information in "Mysterious Common Sense".

It seems that the old man didn't seem to be such a "magic stick" during his lifetime.

"Xiao Lian, besides these things, is there anything else you need help with? You can just tell me." The great uncle who looked away from the list continued to ask,

"After all, ancestor worship is a matter for the whole village, and everyone should contribute."

Hearing this, Lian Ge withdrew his thoughts, nodded and continued:

"The ancestor worship ceremony requires preliminary preparations, and the help of everyone in the village may be needed."

"Xiao Lian, tell me, I'll let them cooperate with you."

"First of all, the ancestor worship ceremony in our village has always been held on the Zhongyuan Festival, but in fact, this is not a suitable time for ancestor worship, so, before the ancestor worship, we need to make some preliminary preparations..."

Chapter 33 Summoning the Ancestors

Lian's old house, in the main room.

After some exchanges on various matters of ancestor worship, and telling the great uncle what needs the assistance of the villagers,

The great uncle didn't stay any longer, and left in a hurry to find someone.

in the main room,

Lian Ge glanced at the two cups of untouched tea, and shook his head slightly.

Turning around and clearing away the tea, Lian Ge sat back under the eaves in front of the main room again, continuing to read and study the three books.

……

Time passed slowly,

For the next few days, Lian Ge didn't go out much, and basically focused on learning the knowledge in the three books.

Even though there were many people who came to admire the name during this period, they were all declined by him.

As time passed day by day, Lian Ge became more and more familiar with the content of the three basic books, including "Principles of Talismans and Seals", "Practice Basics", and "Mysterious Common Sense".

at last,

On the fourth day after Gu Xiaoying left,

It is day, evening.

Under the eaves of the hall.

"boom."

Lian Ge turned over the last page of "Practice Basics", closed the whole book, and put it aside.

"Clap."

After recording the last question in the question book, Lian Ge put down his pen.

Looking at the thick question notebook on the table, Lian Ge smiled slightly and picked it up.

"Crash..."

Turning to the very beginning of the question book, Lian Ge read it from the beginning without haste, and at the same time, the memory of the knowledge of the relevant chapters was also emerging in his mind.

During these four days, on the basis of the previous ones, he further studied the key chapters and key knowledge points of the three books,

Although it is not enough for him to completely grasp all the knowledge in the three books, he already has an overall framework of cognition and a concrete understanding of the mysterious world.

"Clap."

After flipping through it quickly, Lian Ge put down the question book again,

"The first stage is considered complete, and it is time to start the second stage."

Lian Ge smiled slightly, and whispered to himself,

Moving his gaze, Lian Ge looked again at the system interface within sight.

Skimming from top to bottom, staying slightly in the column of Enlightenment Points,

"394 points, should be enough." He whispered to himself,

Without any further hesitation, Lian Ge clicked on the Enlightenment point column and selected the basic Enlightenment status option.

"The basic enlightenment state has been activated, and the system has started timing!"

The system beep sounds.

In an instant, Lian Ge entered the state of enlightenment, all kinds of emotions were swept away, the whole person became extremely calm and rational, thoughts began to spread, inspiration began to explode, thinking was like walking out of a narrow canyon and stepping into the vast grassland .

Without wasting precious time in enlightenment state, Lian Ge spread out the question book, picked up the pen,

Start trying to solve the knowledge points that you couldn't understand and master before in the state of enlightenment, and further master the three basic books.

"Whoa..."

Flipping the system book in one hand, holding the pen in the other hand, and his eyes flicking back and forth between the book and the question book from time to time, Lian Ge used his enlightenment state to run his brain to the limit, absorbing and mastering the previous obscure knowledge.

"The flexible application of the principle of making talismans...the essence of the making principle."

"The essence of practice..."

The pen that Lian Ge held tightly was either paused, or he was writing furiously in the question book.

In the enlightenment state, in order to save time in the enlightenment state, Lian Ge sensibly and decisively skipped over the more difficult or time-consuming problems directly.

Under such selective promotion, relatively simple problems were solved one by one, relevant knowledge was mastered and absorbed, and the question book accumulated in the four days was gradually thinning.

……

Time passed slowly.

The sunset in the western sky completely fell into the horizon, the sunset glow gradually dissipated, and the night gradually fell.

The inside and outside of the house became more and more quiet, beside the eaves of the hall, only the tip of the pen was scratched across the paper, and the sound of the paper turning could be heard from time to time.

In order to ensure smooth and continuous thinking, Lian Ge only left for a moment when he got up and turned on the light, and spent the rest of the time leaning over the desk, continuously absorbing and mastering these obscure knowledge.

"Pa-ta... pa-ta."
