Chapter 66: Sending a post asking for medicine to cure the undead
The sky was bright, and three people walked outside the pharmacist village, walking steadily, it was Mingji, Mingjing, and Mingde. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Mingji walked forward with the wedding card in his hand, and the gatekeeper Ding recognized the three people, and did not step forward to stop them, but stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Three monks, I don't know what happened to my pharmacist?"
Mingji said with a smile: "Please go in and inform the owner of the village that the dry temple will hold the marriage of the beloved disciples Han Xiaoyue and Long Yan in two days, and the old man will come to send a wedding card to the owner." The news of the marriage in the Kuchan Temple has spread to everyone within a radius of dozens of miles, of course these family members know, nodded and said: "Master, please wait here, I will go in and report." So saying, he ran towards the door.
Bypassing the Medicine Buddha statue, Luo Shengnan's room was behind the main hall. The family ran forward, and the family who was patrolling outside the house happened to pass by. "Is the farmer awake?" asked the gatekeeper. The patrolman Ding shook his head and said, "The owner of the village fell ill last night and hasn't woken up yet, what's the matter?" The gatekeeper Ding pointed to the door and said, "The three old monks of Mingji have come to send a wedding card." The patrolman pouted and said, "I'm really not ashamed!" he said, glanced at the owner's room and said, "After all, it's a monk, so it's better to report to the owner." ”
The doorkeeper nodded forward and patted the door. I only heard a cough inside: "What's the matter?" The gatekeeper said: "Report to the owner, Master Mingji and others outside the door ask to see!" After a while, Luo Shengnan pushed the door out, his clothes were not yet neatly dressed, rubbed his eyes and said: "Hurry up, please invite the three senior monks to sit down in the main hall, watch the tea and pour the water, and say that I will come immediately." ”
The gatekeeper Ding was ordered to leave, and Luo Shengnan stopped again: "By the way, I was very confused last night, did that thief take strict care?"
"Little thief?" the gatekeeper Ding thought for a moment and said, "Wasn't that little thief thrown into the tunnel by the owner?" Luo Shengnan listened, and immediately sobered up for the most part, and opened his eyes wide and exclaimed: "Thrown into the tunnel?"
The gatekeeper Ding knew in his heart that the owner of the village must have been sick again, and he didn't remember what he had done, so he hurriedly said: "Master Luo, after knocking him out last night, let's interrogate." During this period, I am afraid that you will have a recurrence of the old disease, and you will throw him into the tunnel in a fit of rage......" Luo Shengnan was stunned when he heard this, and slapped his head and said: "Oops! I can't imagine that I, Luo, have made countless antidotes, but my own antidote can't be made...... Isn't that a human life for nothing?"
Seeing that he was impatient, the gatekeeper hurriedly explained: "Zhuang Master, now the senior monks of Kuzen Temple are asking to see him, do you see it?" Luo Shengnan stabilized his mood and said: "You arrange them in the main hall, I will go over immediately!" The gatekeeper came to the door, and saw Mingji and the others giving a deep salute: "Three monks, please inside!" After speaking, he led the three into the village. Facing the huge statue of Medicine Master Bodhisattva, the three of Ming Ji stopped and bowed. After reciting the opening verse of the Medicine Master Sutra three times, enter the main hall with the gatekeeper. The three of them sat down on the right-hand side, and the other attendants brought good tea and snacks. "The three of you will come over after the owner has finished dealing with the business at hand. After saying that, the gatekeeper walked out.
Luo Shengnan freshened up in the room for a while, put on a clean clothes, and walked to the main hall. Seeing that Mingji and the others hurriedly bowed deeply and said: "The three eminent monks came to the cold house, and they missed the welcome, and they hope to forgive their sins in person!" Mingji and the others got up to return the salute, and the four of them sat down as guests. Ming Ji handed over the wedding card in his hand with both hands, and said with a smile: "Master Luo, Lao Wei came here to present this wedding card. Presumably, the owner of the village has heard some rumors, and I am going to hold a wedding in Kuzen Temple!"
Luo Shengnan took it with both hands, opened it and looked at it casually: "This Han Xiaoyue and Long Yan are both lay disciples in the temple?" Mingji nodded yes. Luo Shengnan closed the wedding card and continued: "Master Mingji, it's not me Luo who is stubborn. Temples have always advocated pure cultivation, and this kind of marriage is far from the teachings of Buddhism. Master Mingji has never arranged a marriage for a lay disciple for decades, so why would he go to great lengths for the two of them this time?"
Mingji smiled and said, "These two people have a miserable life, and they have no relatives. He traveled thousands of miles to join me, and passed the extremely severe ten tests, which can be described as a bittersweet end. Who would have thought that this Han Xiaoyue Han Shi's fate was unfortunate, and he was seriously injured in the test, and now he only has ten days of life left. The relationship between the two is stronger than Jin, and the girl Long Yan is resolutely determined to marry Han Shizhu in the last days. In this situation, don't say that the Buddha is even the heart of the iron and stone, and it should be touched one or two. ”
Luo Shengnan listened carefully, nodded and said, "I see...... It's really a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks. As he spoke, he put the wedding card on the table and said, "I will accept the wedding card, and I will go to participate in it two days later and meet this unprecedented fairy couple." Mingji nodded and smiled: "It's really good that Lord Luo Zhuang can come to participate." It's just ......," Mingji paused, "Lao Wei has one more thing to ask for here." Luo Shengnan nodded and said, "What's the matter with the master, but it's okay to talk about it." ”
Mingji sighed and said, "Lord Han Shi's serious injury this time is an internal injury. The old man used the art of redemption to stabilize his bloodline, but he was unable to cure it. If you want to completely heal his internal injuries, you can't do it without Jushan Tan. Therefore, Lao Qu came this time to ask Lord Luo Zhuang to give him a giant mountain sandalwood to relieve Han Shi's internal injuries, I don't know what Zhuang thinks?"
"Jushan Tan?" Luo Shengnan heard this, and thought to himself: "That little thief seemed to be telling me last night that he was here to ask Jushan Tan to save his eldest brother's life...... Could it be that it's the same person?" Thinking about it, Luo Shengnan nodded and said, "Master, I caught a thief last night, and I said that I came to Jushan Tan to save my eldest brother. Could it be that the person being saved is the same person?"
Of course, Mingji knew that it was he who asked Li Jingxian to come to the people to look for medicine, but he never expected to come to Yaoshizhuang. After hearing this, Ming Ji stood up and said, "How is that person dressed?" Luo Shengnan saw him stand up, and felt faintly uneasy in his heart: "This person is not tall, wearing a tiger skin coat, and carrying a bow and arrows in his hand......"
"It turns out that it's really Master Li Shi!" "Mingji said: "Owner, that person is Han Xiaoyue's younger brother, named Li Jingxian. It turned out that he begged for medicine and got here......" Luo Shengnan slapped his thigh, remorseful in his heart, and sighed: "Master, Luo is deeply guilty. Last night, the old disease recurred, and he was pushed down the tunnel, but I was afraid that it was ......"
Mingji's face changed drastically: "Lord Luo Zhuang mistakenly ate the poison in the herb and has not been solved yet?" Luo Shengnan nodded yes. Mingji clasped his hands together, Mingjing and Mingde also stood up at the same time, and the three of them silently recited the "Mantra of Death". Luo Shengnan was very entangled in his heart, sitting on pins and needles in his seat, not knowing what to do. After reciting the "Mantra of Death" nine times, Ming Ji said: "Amitabha, Lord Luo Zhuang made an unintentional mistake, and it was not intentional. Lord Li Shi's spirit in the sky must not blame you...... It's just that Han Shizhu has not recovered from his serious injuries, but he has lost his brother, I am afraid that he will be sad again!"
At this moment, the family outside the door ran in and said: "Report to the owner, two women and one man outside the door ask to see!" Luo Shengnan waved his hand and said: "Go and tell them that I am meeting guests, and it is inconvenient to receive them." ”
"I told them, but I still refused to leave, and I had to see the owner. Luo Shengnan listened and continued: "Then you tell them, if you want to see me, prepare fifty ingots of gold!"
Jia Ding paused and said, "Owner, these three people came yesterday, and I have already informed her about the fifty ingots of gold. Today, it seems, they came prepared. Luo Shengnan listened, turned his face to look at Mingji and the others: "What the three senior monks wanted, Luo kept in mind. If you don't dislike it, please leave after lunch!"
Mingji thought for a moment and nodded, "It's okay." Taking this opportunity, Lao Wei wanted to go to the entrance of the tunnel to do a simple ritual for Master Li Shi, and overtake Lord Li Shi's undead, I don't know if it is convenient?" Luo Shengnan nodded and said, "Convenient, convenient...... It's just that don't open the tunnel opening. The stench of rancid air in this tunnel is too heavy, so as not to displease the three monks. Mingji nodded and said, "That's natural, the owner's things will not be easily touched." ”
The family led Ming Ji and the other three to the treasury of Wanxiangyuan to do the business, and Luo Shengnan stuffed the wedding card into his clothes and walked out of the main hall. The two women and one man at the door were Mu Yaqin's master and servant and Chi Hai. Mu Yaqin put together his entanglement and Chi Hai's "private money" for less than a piece of gold, and there was nothing he could do. Ah Qiu was in a hurry and came up with the idea of stealing the county treasury. After the two of them entered the night, they took fifty ingots of gold and did not take more when the guards in the city were focusing on patrolling the county government and Wangchuan Tower, and the guard of the county treasury was lax. Due to his cautious actions, he did not attract the attention of others.
Mu Yaqin was carrying a lot of money, and for the sake of insurance, Chi Hai was also invited. The three of them came here together, and they wanted to buy Jushan Tan with a lot of money. Chi Hai was still in the dark, and he didn't know what Mu Yaqin was going to do. "Yaqin, why did you bring so many silver taels to the Medicine Master Zhuang?" Chi Hai asked. Mu Yaqin glanced at him and said, "This is also part of the old lady's plan. ”
Chi Hai was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Yesterday you said that the old lady's plan was to buy Cui Zhixian?" Mu Yaqin snorted: "What do you know? Do you think it's enough to buy a Cui Zhi County? Near Xingping County, except for the Kuchan Temple, it is this medicine master village that has the greatest power. For the sake of safety, you must not let go of a force, understand?"
Chi Hai nodded, although his heart was full of doubts, he was still here to accompany her with peace of mind. At this moment, Luo Shengnan also walked out of it and looked the three people up and down. Seeing the three of them standing side by side, the woman with a slight temperament in the middle was holding a large bag in her hand, and what was heavy in it must have been the fifty ingots of gold.
"The three of you came to find Luo, I don't know what you are doing?" Mu Yaqin reported his name and said: "Master Luo, I came to Guibao Land yesterday and was stopped by the gatekeeper. According to him, if you want to enter the village and see the owner, you must have 50 taels of gold ingots. Luo Shengnan laughed and said: "It's true. But seeing that the girl's clothes are not ordinary, it seems that she is fully prepared today!"
Mu Yaqin sent the pocket in his hand forward, and the gatekeeper took it. When he opened it, he saw that there were fifty large gold ingots inside, and he nodded to the owner of the village, "Master, this girl has indeed brought a full fifty gold ingots." Luo Shengnan listened, nodded and said, "Okay, since Miss Mu is so sincere, Luo is no longer hypocritical." Three inside, please!" said, and let me make an invitation on the side. In fact, Luo Shengnan is not a snob, and the reason why there is this regulation is that he really doesn't want to see too many miscellaneous people.
Luo Shengnan led the three of them to the main hall and sat down. Raising his eyes, he noticed that Chi Hai was wearing a monk's robe, so he said: "This little brother is a monk? ”
"Oh, there is only one temple in this radius of dozens of miles, is the little master coming from afar?" Luo Shengnan said, his eyes kept staring at him. Chi Hai was a little impatient in his heart and said, "This ...... Yes, the poor monks are not from this place......"
Mu Yaqin was afraid of exposing Chi Hai's identity, so she hurriedly said: "Master Luo, this time we are not here to be idle, but to talk about cooperation with the owner." After hearing this, Luo Shengnan said with a look of annoyance on his face: "Cooperation? I don't know which sect and faction the three of you represent this time to talk about cooperation, and what is the matter of cooperation?"
Mu Yaqin had already prepared to kill two birds with one stone, got up and gave a deep salute and said, "We are here this time to talk to the owner about the strong alliance between Fangcaohui and Yaoshi Zhuang. I, Fangcaohui and Yaoshizhuang, are both major sects on the rivers and lakes, and if they can join forces, other sects will not dare to underestimate them. Luo Shengnan shook his head and smiled: "Our Medicine Master Zhuang has never been an enemy of others, so how can other sects be underestimated?"
"Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. Mu Yaqin said, "If the owner of Luo Zhuang can't be prepared for danger in peace, he will definitely bring trouble to himself one day." Luo Shengnan was a little annoyed in his heart, feeling that she was contemptuous of Yaoshi Zhuang with such words. But a female streamer is not good at accusing her face-to-face, so she has to nod and say: "Miss Mu has a good intention, and Luo has a heart." Presumably the girl has other important things, if she is only here to talk about the so-called 'cooperation', then it is inconvenient for Luo to stay longer, please!"
Mu Yaqin saw that he had given an eviction order, and felt that the time was ripe, and said with a smile: "Master Luo doesn't have to rush to send off guests, since the cooperation can't be successful, let's talk about business!" Luo Shengnan heard the word "business", and became interested: "Oh, I don't know what business Miss Mu wants to talk to me about?"
Mu Yaqin put the pocket containing fifty ingots of gold on the table and said: "This money was originally used as a gift for cooperation between the two sides, since the cooperation fails, it is inconvenient for us to take it away, so let's give it to the owner!" Seeing this, Luo Shengnan pushed and said: "No merit will not be punished." Although I, Luo, love money, I will never accept silver for no reason. Mu Yaqin said with a smile: "Master Luo is too worried, since he is a businessman, of course he is going to make a deal!"
"Then I don't know what Miss Mu wants to buy?" Luo Shengnan asked, thinking in his heart: "Isn't there a deception in this, if the cooperation fails, you will have a murderous intention!" Thinking about it, his hand touched the three-killing silver needle in his sleeve. Mu Yaqin nodded and smiled: "The most valuable medicinal herb in Yaoshizhuang, bring me one!" As he spoke, he sat on the chair and took two sips of the tea bowl. Luo Shengnan was relieved, it turned out that they were not here to use force, so he instructed the family to say: "Come on, go and get ten iceberg snow lotus seeds for the girl!"
"Iceberg Snow Lotus Seeds?" Mu Yaqin pretended to be disgusted, "Master Luo, what kind of medicinal herb is this?" Luo Shengnan smiled: "This Iceberg Snow Lotus Seed is the most expensive medicine in the village, which is refined from the iceberg snow lotus in the Alpine Snow Region, and is shaped like a mung bean. Eat one to strengthen your body, there are only more than 50 pills in the stores of Pharmacist Village across the country, and the price is expensive. ”
Mu Yaqin shook his head and said, "If it can be bought in ordinary stores, why should I make a special trip?" Luo Shengnan listened, nodded and thought for a moment: "It seems that Miss Mu already has her favorite medicine in her heart." Tell me as much as you can......"
Mu Yaqin pushed the gold ingot in the direction of Luo Shengnan, and whispered in his ear: "Master Luo, why don't you give me a giant mountain sandalwood?"
