Lan Xin watched the figure walk towards the small courtyard where the guests were resting, and then withdrew his gaze. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info groaned for a moment, and didn't rush to the place where the animals were released, but walked towards the apse with Dongxiu and Red Sleeves. Although the people in the apse are not as bustling as the front hall, there are quite a few people here.

Dongxiu went to the steward master in the hall, took out a silver ticket of three hundred taels, and ordered three everlasting lanterns. The steward looked at the three silver tickets in his hand, and he couldn't close his mouth excitedly, and the corners of his mouth almost grinned behind his ears. There was wind under his feet, and his hands and feet were neatly ready for everything that should be prepared.

After Lan Xinjing passed his hands, he picked up the incense candle on the table, respectfully bowed to the Buddha statue three times, and then inserted the incense into the incense table. I lit three ever-bright lamps with my own hands, and of course these three lamps were lit for Master Yu, Mrs. Yu and Aunt Yuzhi.

She politely refused the housekeeper's request to invite her to rest in the small courtyard, and just asked him to arrange a clean meditation room. After the little monk in the temple served tea and a few snacks, Lan Xin instructed the red sleeves beside him: "You go to the temple and take a turn, lest we don't understand anything, and there will be something wrong at the release meeting." Also, be careful yourself, there are many people in the temple today, don't bump into others, let alone be bumped into by others. ”

"The slave knows, girl. Redsleeves replied in a crisp voice. With two sparkling eyes, I have long wanted to go out and have a look. Looking at the cheerful back of the red sleeves, Lan Xin shook his head helplessly, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip gently. Tea is just ordinary tea, that is, the kind that costs two pennies and a big bag, and the water used to make tea is also ordinary well water, and the tea is a little old. Lan Xin frowned, endured it, and swallowed the tea.

Looking at the rough-made tea bowl in his hand, he thought funny: It is really easy for people to be luxurious, but it is difficult to be thrifty! In less than a year, my mouth has been raised.

"Girl, the slave will go to the temple to borrow a stove and make you a new pot of tea. Dong Xiu glanced at the rough tea set on the table and whispered, she didn't miss her girl's frowning brow just now.

Lan Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "Forget it, it's just tea to quench your thirst." As he spoke, Lan Xin picked up the cup again and took a sip of tea. Pointing to the chair next to him, he said, "There are no outsiders here, so let's sit down and rest for a while." He picked up the teapot at hand and poured a cup of tea for Dongxiu.

After about a quarter of an hour, Redsleeves hurried in from outside. The little face was flushed, and I didn't know if it was happy or blown by the cold wind. After saluting, he took out the oiled paper bag in his arms and said excitedly: "Girl, there are still many stalls selling things on the back mountain. The slave maid saw that the fried chestnuts and spiced pine nuts were okay, so she bought two packets for the girl to taste. ”

"Have you all moved to the back mountain?" Dongxiu shouted in surprise, helping Red Sleeves open the paper bag together. A fresh fragrance of chestnuts came to my nose, and suddenly the whole meditation room was filled with the aroma of chestnuts and pine nuts. "It smells pretty good, I don't know what it tastes like, girl, try it." As he spoke, he quickly peeled a chestnut with his hands and feet, put it in the rough disk, and handed it over.

Lan Xin picked it up, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, sweet and glutinous, very delicious. "Well, it's sweet and delicious, and the heat is well controlled. When I go back, I will sell a few more packs to take back and give them to Zhen's mother, Liu's mother and Qinghe. He picked up the wet handkerchief next to him and wiped his fingers. He pointed to the two oiled paper packets and motioned for the two of them to eat.

Red Sleeves took two sips of tea, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Girl, the slave maid went to the place where the animals were released to take a look." There are fish there, there are pigeons, you can buy them for as much as you want, you can buy them. There is a large release pond in the back mountain, where you can put all the fish you bought. There is also a release forest dedicated to keeping pigeons.

The slave and maid stood there and watched for a while, and the ordinary people bought a fish or a pigeon for one or two or two, and some large families would have more. The prefect's wife, Mrs. Lu paid five hundred taels of silver to buy a fish and release it. There are still many people who just gather around the side to watch the excitement, and they don't mean to pay for it. ”

"Good. Lan Xin was very satisfied with the news that Red Sleeves had brought back. When she first entered the temple, she saw Mama Li beside Mrs. Lu, and guessed that Mrs. Lu should also come. The purpose of her letting Red Sleeves go out, that is, to touch the bottom, couldn't surpass Mrs. Lu. It's just that to her surprise, Mrs. Lu only spent five hundred taels of silver, which should not be what Mrs. Lu meant.

The plate with the peeled pine nuts in the red sleeves pushed to Lan Xin's hand, pouted and said, "Alas, it's a pity that I can't see the master of the wind who is rumored to be miraculous today." ”

"How can Master Sifeng be seen casually?" Dongxiu said with a smile, "By the way, girl, the slave maid heard before that when Master Sifeng traveled, he would personally unsign in the temple. Why is there only a release puja today, but there is no unraveling of the lottery?"

"That's because Master Sifeng didn't come at all. Before Lan Xin could speak, Red Sleeves said first.

"Didn't come, did anyone dare to act under the guise of Master Sifeng?" Dongxiu said in surprise. Lan Xin was also surprised, turned her head to look at Red Sleeves, and motioned for her to continue.

"It's not an impostor. The slave maid heard that it seemed that someone had received the favor of the master of the wind of thought. Master Sifeng instructed him that if he wanted to repay his kindness, he would hold a life release ceremony in the temple and use the money to help those in need. However, he was only allowed to borrow his name once. Moreover, the slave maid also heard that since April this year, after Master Sifeng appeared once in Xuzhou, he and Qingfeng Dao Chang traveled together, and no one knew where they went, and some people said that they had left the Great Sect Dynasty. ”

"April? That's not ・・・・・・" Wasn't that the time they met Master Sifeng and Qingfeng Daoist outside Xuzhou City? The two of them also ate their flower chicken and roast venison. Finally, the breeze leader gave the girl a large pile of black cloth. Dongxiu looked at Lan Xin in surprise, and Lan Xin nodded lightly. Looking at Red Sleeves and asking, "Who are you listening to?"

Red Sleeves thought for a while and said, "I overheard people talking about it, it seems that the old lady of that family asked their wife to spend a thousand taels of silver to release her." As a result, the lady of the family heard that Master Sifeng was not in the temple, so she deducted five hundred taels. ”
