Chapter 328: One Step to the Sky
"I was just going to congratulate you, I watched your house decorated with lights and banquet guests, there must be a great event, but there was no happy word or a hundred years of good together, and I was curious in my heart......"
Greeting this homeowner is Bai Impermanence.
This family looks like a happy event, but there is a Buddha word on the door, but there is no happy word, which looks a little weird.
But the owner of this family invited the guests to a banquet, and he was very happy, I am afraid that there is something strange?
"Hahaha, the guest asked well, and it is also our ancestor who has accumulated virtue. In a poor country like mine, it has been rare in recent decades to have such a happy thing......"
The joy of the owner of the house was hard to hide, and it was very interesting to watch his master speak, and the little beard shook and shook very interestingly.
"Guest, please drink tea, let me speak slowly......"
It turned out that the family's surname was Sun, and there were two sons, one was called Sun Dalang and the other was Sun Erlang, of which Dalang was married and had children, and Erlang was also sixteen years old.
But seeing that Sun Erlang's grade is not young, and the Sun family is also a wealthy family in the village, he thought about telling Erlang a family affair first, but he didn't want Erlang to say anything, so the father and son quarreled from time to time.
A few days ago, there was a monk who went to Dongtu to preach, and people outside the city went to see the excitement, especially this monk is said to ask for rain, which makes the nearby villagers a little more gossip, but no one believes that the monk can really ask for rain.
After all, Fengxian County, Huazhou has been in drought for three years, and there has not been a drop of rain at all, not to mention planting crops, even the trees on the mountain have died countless times, and many people are unable to continue their lives.
There are so many people who sell their sons and daughters to flee the famine, and in the past three years, countless monks and Taoist priests have come to ask for rain, but to no avail.
The county king of Fengxian County has also thought of countless ways to make people beg for rain, but it is useless, it just makes the people more disappointed.
This is this time to everyone's surprise, a few monks really asked for a nectar, so that Fengxian County rained all night, everyone was stunned, and they were also like gods to those monks.
At that time, Sun Erlang was also crowded in the crowd and worshiped the monk.
The king of the county was a guest of the feast, invited these monks to be guests in the palace, and asked the three princes in the palace to worship the monk as a teacher, but the monk Ti told the king of the county that the Fengxian County had no rain for three years because they did not respect God.
Three years ago, when the king of the county was sacrificing heaven and earth, because he happened to be angry with his wife, he angrily knocked over the sacrificial tribute, and the tribute was eaten by wild dogs, and it happened to be seen by the Jade Emperor in his spare time, and the Jade Emperor was furious.
This led to no rain in Fengxian County for three years, and if you want to have a smooth wind, you must respect Buddhism, so they plan to hold a Dharma class in the palace of the county king, and select a group of people to teach Buddhism by the senior monks themselves, this Sun Erlang is also lucky.
Because he was young and literate, he was selected to listen to Buddhism by the side of a high monk, and a selected Erlang like Sun Erlang had a very high status, and the king of the county not only met him personally, but also exempted their family from taxes.
And Sun Erlang is equivalent to a person with an official body at this time, and he suddenly has Yulu.
This is a great joy for ordinary people, and this is the treatment of someone in the family.
As soon as they were happy, the Sun family invited the guests to invite the neighbors to drink and celebrate the second day of the Sun family to become a monk.
Zhang Fan sat on the upper seat and listened to the Sun family's vivid story about the great joy of their children's encounter, which is really as happy for the Sun family as the children to become officials!
"Those three eminent monks are amazing, by the way, can they only chant scriptures?"
Bai Wuchang was taking the words of this master, because this place was not particularly far from Leopard Mountain, at least it was closer than from the town, Sun Xing and they had exterminated the Yellow Lion Monster in Leopard Mountain, they would definitely know.
Sure enough, when the master of the household heard Bai Wuchang's words, he smiled.
"Guests, you don't know, these monks are not just chanting, people are real fairy-like characters, not only will ask for rain but also catch goblins, there is a lion spirit on the Leopard Mountain, we have lived here for decades and don't know, this monk from afar, but suddenly found the tiger cave of the Leopard Mountain, and beat the lion spirit to death......"
As soon as this family talked about the lion spirit, Zhang Fan couldn't help but listen.
But the master of the house saw that they listened attentively, and spoke with great joy.
I can't stop boasting about how powerful those monks are, and now they are preaching in the city, and they have accepted three princes as apprentices in the city, and their children are also fortunate to worship the monks under the throne, and they can even be said to be the junior disciples of the three princes.
This is a great event, and it is a step to the sky for this farmer.
It's no wonder that there is a big feast, this is indeed a happy event, as rare as lifting people in high school.
"Oh oh oh, may I ask you, where have you seen the body of the lion spirit, was it taken away by those high monks?"
"Well, a lot of soldiers came during the day, and then when they left, they pulled away a big lion, three or four meters high, I have never seen such a big lion, no wonder it is said that it is a ......"
The owner of the household also told in vivid voice that some of the villagers had seen a large lion several meters long, which was really terrifying.
If the lion hadn't been killed, they wouldn't have dared to come near.
"Was the lion brought to the city?"
"Well, it should be, we are still forty miles away from the city here, and many people in the village will want to go into the city to see the excitement tomorrow, such a big lion, no old man who has lived for seventy or eighty has ever seen it, let alone us......"
The owner of the house had no idea that the lion spirit in his mouth was actually standing not far from him, watching, and kept glaring angrily, and when he heard that his body had been transported to the city, the yellow lion couldn't stop walking around.
The restless appearance made Bai Wuchang can't help but glance at Zhang Fan.
"Let's rest here for the night today, and we'll leave at dawn tomorrow, thank you for your hospitality......
Bai Wuchang saw Zhang Fan nodding again, and hurriedly thanked the owner, and the people sent a lot of wine and food, Bai Wuchang quietly stuffed a silver ingot, but the master did not accept it but was told by Bai Wuchang.
This is congratulations to his family, and he must accept it, and push and push to let the master between him still take it.
Quickly arrange the best guest room for them, Zhang Fan planned to rest first, but before the person fell asleep, he heard the sound of someone knocking on the window!
