Chapter 463: Old Monk of the Western Regions
Although the person who came was not Zhang Deli, Nanfeng was still very happy, no matter who he was, as long as it was a person.
It was now morning, the Hu people rode a camel and approached slowly, and when they got closer, Nanfeng saw the appearance of this person clearly, and the person who came was really a Hu man, more than sixty years old, with a blanket and a bamboo basket on the camel, and two water bags hanging on it.
Looking at the Hu man's dress, Nanfeng vaguely felt a little familiar, not that he had seen it before, but he felt familiar, until the Hu man arrived at the edge of the waterhole, got off the camel, and took off the turban before suddenly realizing that this Hu man turned out to be a monk, and the clothes he was wearing may be a robe from the Western Regions.
Since he came, he couldn't run, so Nanfeng appeared and shouted softly, "Hey." ”
The old monk never thought that there would be people here, and when he heard Nanfeng speak, he sat down by the waterhole in fright, and waited until he could see Nanfeng's appearance, his hands folded, and he was chattering.
Except for the beginning of the Amitabha Buddha, the rest of the people don't understand it at all, don't ask, it's Sanskrit, if only the fat man was there.
Even knowing that it was unlikely that this person would understand Chinese, Nanfeng still tried, "Master, where are you from?"
The old monk first looked puzzled, and then waved his hand again and again, indicating that he did not understand Chinese.
"Hey, old bald donkey. Nanfeng laughed.
The old monk saw the south wind smiling at him, and only when the south wind showed kindness to him, he also grinned.
Seeing this, Nanfeng was sure that this person really didn't understand Chinese, and raised his hand and scratched his head, thinking about how to communicate with him.
The old monk was washing his face before, but was interrupted by the south wind, but now he greeted him, and then walked to the edge of the pond and continued to clean.
When the old monk washed his face, the camel also walked to the waterhole and knelt down to drink water, Nanfeng looked at the bamboo basket on the camel's back at random, and found that there were many books in it, and took one at hand, I thought I couldn't understand it, but I never thought it was a Tao Te Ching, and there was a Sanskrit translation between the lines.
Look at it again, it's still * family classics, and again, there are also Confucian ones, all of which have Sanskrit translations and annotations.
Because of the language barrier, there is no way to talk, the old monk has no spiritual cultivation, just an ordinary old monk, seeing the south wind looking at the basket, he thought he was looking for food, came over, took some bread from the basket and came out, this cake is different from the cake in Middle-earth, very thin and fragile, the old monk is holding the fragments of the cake.
The old monk handed over the cake, but Nanfeng did not reach out to take it, but frowned and looked at the corner of the basket.
The old monk followed Nanfeng's line of sight, guessed what he was looking at, took out two ingots of gold from the basket, and handed one to Nanfeng.
Nanfeng stretched out his hand to take it, looked at it, threw the gold into the bamboo basket, and took another ingot, after reading it, his brows furrowed, last year he personally handed over the two ingots of horseshoe gold to Zhang Deli, one of the ingots has obvious trachoma, and the old monk brought two ingots of gold, one of which also has trachoma.
Seeing Nanfeng frowning, the old monk looked frightened and hurriedly stretched out his hand to gesture.
"Where did you pick it up?" Nanfeng understood the old monk's gesture.
The old monk didn't understand, and was still making comparisons, as if he was afraid that the south wind would misunderstand.
The language barrier, can only be compared, although it is troublesome, but can still communicate, after a stick of incense after the comparison, the south wind finally figured out the origin of the matter.
The old monk was a native of the Western Regions, yearning for the civilization of Middle-earth, and had come to study in Youfang, and the two ingots of gold were picked up in a sand dune two hundred miles away from here, where there were many camel carcasses and three human corpses.
Nanfeng gestured and asked about the cause of death, and the old monk replied with a gesture, meaning that the three people and the camels were all killed by people, and their heads were cut off.
After understanding the gesture of the old monk, the south wind was cold all over the body, and Zhang Deli and the others died two hundred miles away, indicating that the three of them were killed shortly after leaving Huangshaling, if they were killed by bandits and robbers, they would never take away the gold, let alone kill the camels.
Who would treat money as dung, who could kill the three of them soon after they left Huangshaling, and what was the motive for the killing.
These problems are not complicated, and the truth is not difficult to deduce, it is very likely that it was Li Chaozong's party who killed Zhang Deli and others, and the reason why they killed Zhang Deli was undoubtedly to kill people and eliminate their mouths.
He had talked with Zhang Deli and others before, and Zhang Deli and others were indeed businessmen, and they were never instructed by anyone to come to deceive him.
But this does not mean that this matter is not a conspiracy of the other party, it is true that Zhang Deli and others are merchants, but the storm that Zhang Deli and others encountered before may be fake, to put it bluntly, the murderer deliberately led them to Huangshaling.
This is not only a conspiracy, but also an extremely insidious conspiracy, the murderer should know his situation very well, guessing that he is eager to know what is happening outside, and also guessing that he will entrust Zhang Deli and others to find out the whereabouts of the fat man and others.
What he entrusted Zhang Deli to do was what the other party wanted to know.
The people he entrusted Zhang Deli to inquire about were all people who were extremely close to him, and they were also the people who were most likely to master the Book of Heaven, who these people were, and where they might appear, he told Zhang Deli, otherwise Zhang Deli would not be able to inquire.
Zhang Deli is just a businessman, not a righteous man, and he can't stand the coercion of confessions, and now the clues he told Zhang Deli have all been mastered by the murderer, which is a caring move, but he puts all his relatives and friends in danger.
"I've had enough of life. "The south wind is furious.
Seeing that the south wind was angry, the old monk was not afraid, his hands were folded, and he said something eagerly.
Nanfeng suppressed his anger and gestured at the old monk, only saying that the deceased was his friend, so he didn't need to be nervous.
Seeing that Nanfeng did not suspect that he was the murderer, the old monk relieved himself and spoke in harmony, which should be to persuade and comfort.
Seeing that the other party was friendly, Nanfeng nodded at him, and now the big mistake has been made, and it is useless to be anxious, Zhang Deli and others have already been killed, what the murderer wants to do must have been done, take a step back and say, even if the other party has not had time to start, he can't do anything, because he is trapped here and can't go anywhere.
When the old monk came here, he only found the oasis, came to fetch water, replenished the drinking water, and left.
Nanfeng did not force to stay, after discussion, the old monk brought some books, there are a lot of Taoist Confucianism and Buddhism books, no matter what you do, you can't empty everything, you must know that the ruler is short and long, the books left by the predecessors and wise men can still be read and studied, take their essence, and give up their dross.
Since Nanfeng and those merchants were friends, this gold was not an ownerless thing, and the old monk had to leave the two ingots of gold.
Whether it is a good person or a bad person, it has nothing to do with the industry he is engaged in, there are good people in every line, and monks are not all bad people, on the contrary, monks are good, Taoists, or good people, the two ingots of gold Nanfeng finally stuffed to the old monk, there is still a long way to go to Middle-earth, Middle-earth has been in war for many years, the people live a hard life, and it is difficult to turn into a fate, he needs to be entangled.
The old monk thanked him for his kindness, took the gold, mounted his camel, and walked southeast.
After the old monk walked out of two miles, Nanfeng chased after him and handed him a small jar, the old monk didn't know why, took a look, and it turned out to be a fat-headed and big-eared mole inside.
Nanfeng gestured, and the old monk realized that Nanfeng had entrusted him to take the mole outside and release it, so he naturally would not refuse this matter, and gladly agreed.
People need friends, there are no friends here, this mole is his friend, since it is a friend, you have to think about what the other person thinks, it also needs friends.
After the old monk left, Huangshaling returned to its former calm.
But Nanfeng was rarely calm in his heart, he didn't expect that he would fall into the trap of others, and the top priority was to assess what kind of damage this matter would cause.
Lu Pingchuan Mo Li and Chu Huairou Changle were exposed, and Lihuo Palace was also exposed, not to mention the fat man and Yuan Anning, the murderer not only knew this, but also knew what he had said and asked Zhang Deli before. Zhang Deli may not have taken those words to heart, but the murderer was able to figure out a lot of clues from them, and there was no need to evaluate the consequences of this matter, and the worst result was the consequences of this matter.
Now the big mistake has been made, and it is useless to be angry and anxious, but fortunately, he has explained to the fat man before, if it is a last resort, he can hand over the book of heaven to save his life, and the opponent should not hurt everyone after getting the book of heaven.
Thinking about it carefully, there is still something strange about this matter, because Li Chaozong once said that he knew who he gave the Book of Heaven to. Now there are two possibilities, one is that Li Chaozong was just lying to him that day, and the other is that the perpetrator was not Li Chaozong's party, but someone else.
These two possibilities account for half, because Li Chaozong is not the only party who covets the Book of Heaven, everyone in the world knows that the Book of Heaven is miraculous, and those who get the Book of Heaven will have eternal life, such a treasure, who doesn't want it.
The two sides weighed each other, and still hoped that this matter was done by Li Chaozong and others, Li Chaozong knew him, and if he did not die for a day, Li Chaozong would not dare to do things too desperately, because it might cause him to retaliate madly afterwards. But if this matter is done by others, the variables will be great, and those people will not know his situation, and once they start to do it, they are likely to do everything.
It is a terrible feeling to be powerless, to watch the situation deteriorate and nothing can be done.
The sun sets and the moon rises, goodbye to the stars, the east shines, and it's another day.
Day after day, in the blink of an eye, it was autumn and winter, and this was his fifth year in Huangshaling.
One night in early winter, Nanfeng found that there was a slight trace of incense, and he felt it in his heart, and immediately came to the ground and looked up at the sky, which was the middle of the night.
Previously, he had made an agreement with the fat man that if Uncle Wang completed the restoration of his body, he would burn incense for three days in a row at midnight, and then he would feel the incense and try to return to his body.
At this time, it is the time of the child, could it be that the fat man and Uncle Wang are ready?
Nervously waited until the next day, but no more incense increased.
After a short period of doubt, Nanfeng suddenly realized that ordinary people would not burn incense in the middle of the night to worship, and the reason why he only burned incense once was to inform him that he had made progress in repairing his body, so that he could know it in his heart.
Thinking about the reason, Nanfeng has mixed joys and sorrows, and the joy is that the road of physical body repair is going well, if he is not sure, Uncle Wang will not let the fat man burn incense to tell him the progress. The worry is that it has only been five years before there has been some progress, and if we extrapolate from the current progress, it will take at least ten years to completely restore the physical body......
