Chapter 490 A worthless wooden statue?
Wang Ping'an controlled the miniature paper man to leave the mountain temple and chase after the long dragon-like team.

In addition to the initial group of people touring the village, many villagers from Zhangjia Village and people from other surrounding villages came over to join in the fun.

However, some old, weak and sick people were still staying outside the mountain temple.

although.

Many of the elderly were carried out using their own door panels. One could clearly see the look of death on their faces. It was obvious that they were dying and would not have many days left to live. However, their faces were filled with joy that was difficult to conceal.

They all learned from the village chief Zhang Yongde that during today's deification ceremony for Zhang Deben, there would be a divine rain. If they accepted the baptism of the divine rain, the diseases in their bodies would be dispelled, and not only would they be protected from illness and disaster, but they would also live a long life.

Most of them have been lying in bed for several years, gradually accepting the news that they will not live long. Most of them have become indifferent to life and death, but if they can live, who would be willing to die?
now.

How could they not be happy after receiving this good news from Zhang Yongde?

Their relatives are still alive in this world, and they still want to see their descendants multiply and thrive, so naturally they don't want to report to the King of Hell so "early".

Not long after.

The miniature paper man approached the village tour team. Wang Pingan was about to take advantage of the paper man's approach to put it into the world bead. When he checked the incense stick he had secretly stolen from the mountain temple, he vaguely noticed a pair of fiery eyes. He subconsciously looked up and saw Qi Wenshan looking at him with a fiery face. His heart trembled and he cursed inwardly:
'Damn, this old guy doesn't have any special hobbies, does he?'

but.

Wang Ping'an soon noticed that although Qi Wenshan was looking at him passionately, there was no trace of lust on his face or in his eyes, and it was obvious that he did not have any special hobbies.

'If you don't have any special hobbies! '

Thousands of distracting thoughts emerged in Wang Ping'an's mind, and he said thoughtfully:

"Could it be that he was attracted by my talent and saw at a glance that I was a peerless master, so he wanted to take me in as his disciple and pass on all his skills to me?"

Although he thought so, Wang Ping'an believed that Qi Wenshan should not have such an idea. Even if he had such an idea, it would soon be shattered.

He was right next to them just now, and even if he didn't know about Wang Ping'an's deeds before, after listening to Tong Weicai's narration, he should know that he was favored by the tribe leader of Jiu Tou Shan Fox Clan, who wanted to make him the tribe's son-in-law; he was also favored by Lu Tu, a captain of the Demon Suppression Division in Fengyin County, who wanted to take him in as a disciple.

As long as Qi Wenshan is not stupid and has his brain filled with water, he should know his own capabilities. He is just a master who carves stone statues. He may have some skills, but he can only make a living. Let alone compare with Lu Tu, he is probably not even as good as his first master, Taoist Xuanqing.

How could he possibly think of taking in a disciple?
"Okay, I want to see what you are planning!"

Wang Ping'an thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out why Qi Wenshan was looking at him with such a fiery expression. He was too lazy to think about it, nor was he in a hurry to take the paper man back.

Qi Wenshan looked at Wang Ping'an as if he saw a rare treasure. He was afraid that others would notice his abnormality, so he withdrew his gaze with difficulty, took out a wooden statue from his pocket, and handed it to Liu Dongzhu. Liu Dongzhu didn't understand why Qi Wenshan handed her a wooden box for no reason, and asked in confusion: "Master Qi, what are you doing?"

"Madam Wang, this is a toy I carved out of special wood. It has the effect of repelling insects and promoting sleep. If you don't mind, you can give it to your children as a toy!"

Qi Wenshan explained.

"Is it the Dragonwood?"

Before Liu Dongzhu opened his mouth, Tong Wei came over and sniffed a little. He seemed to smell the scent of the wooden statue. His eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "What's your name, Master?"

Qi Wenshan said enthusiastically: "Master Tong, I am Qi Wenshan!"

"It turned out to be Master Qi. I wondered who he was. He is so generous that he even made a toy out of the Dragon Wood!"

Tong Weicai praised and advised Liu Dongzhu, "Madam Wang, just accept it. This wooden statue carved from dragon wood is a first-class good thing. Dragon wood is expensive to begin with, and one pound can be sold for at least one tael of gold. In addition, with Master Qi's craftsmanship, even though this wooden statue is small, if you are willing, it won't be a problem to sell it for ten taels of gold!"

"Ten taels of gold?"

Li Ping exclaimed, but before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Zhang Guihua and Wang Lin beside her: "Master Qi, we all appreciate your kindness, but this thing is too precious, you should take it back, our Ping An is still young and doesn't need toys!"

Ever since that beast became rich, the Wang family has gradually become wealthy from poverty. Over the years, they have saved some money just by farming, but when all is added up, let alone ten taels of gold, I'm afraid they don't even have five taels of gold.

I never thought of that!
A toy wooden statue that Qi Wenshan casually took out was actually worth ten taels of gold!
"Everyone, don't listen to Master Tong's nonsense. He is praising me. Dragon Wood is valuable and my craftsmanship is good. But this little thing is made by me using leftover materials. It is not valuable. Let alone ten taels of gold, I am afraid it is not even worth twenty copper coins!"

Qi Wenshan smiled bitterly and said, "I have a habit of amusing children. I often carve some worthless things in my free time. When I saw your Ping An for the first time, I fell in love with such a chubby and cute child. You should accept it. This thing is really not worth ten taels of gold. If it is worth so much, I would not be willing to give it to you!"

Liu Dongzhu, Zhang Guihua and Wang Lin were hesitant and didn't know how to answer. They turned to look at Tong Weicai, as if they wanted to hear Tong Weicai's opinion.

"This old man is talking nonsense here. Don't I know whether this thing is worth ten taels of gold? Such a valuable thing, he just gave it away without saying anything. Could it be that he heard what I said and wanted to make friends with the Wang family, so he was willing to give it away? But it's a pity that giving this thing away is useless. Who told him that he won't live for a few more days!"

Tong Weicai sneered secretly, and did not expose Qi Wenshan's lie, and said apologetically:

"It's my fault. I wanted you to pay more attention to the gift that Master Qi gave you, so I deliberately exaggerated the price. I didn't expect that it would have the opposite effect. Please don't take it personally!"

"Just take it, it's just a worthless thing!"

While talking, Qi Wenshan forcibly stuffed the little gadget in Liu Dongzhu's hand and said, "Take this thing with you. It can not only protect you from mosquitoes and poisonous snakes, but it can also help the child sleep well!"
