Chapter 115: April 1, Before the War
On April 1, the 24th day of the second lunar month, it is advisable to open the light, pray for blessings, and ask for heirs.
The day before the gambling battle, many pilgrims came early in the morning to offer incense and pray for blessings. Now that there are more and more pilgrims every day, I have to say that the temple's own luck +2 and meditation +1 have played a great role. Although I can't see the blessing of the Buddha, it is true that my luck has improved after the incense, and it is also true that I am calm.
One or two people will think it's an illusion, but after there are many people, this is word of mouth.
Although the events of the day before yesterday were seen by many people, they did not spread so quickly, everything was as usual, and the temple was as quiet and peaceful as ever.
Su Wen asked Huaisu to write a piece of paper: On April 2, the temple was closed to visitors, and the pilgrims stopped in front of the mountain.
It should be said that it is worthy of Huaisu, the handwriting is very good, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, the only problem is that I can't understand it.
After Su Wen got his hand, he looked at it, crumpled it into a ball, threw it into the pile of waste paper in the corner of Huaisu's house, picked up Huaisu's brush and rewrote it stroke by stroke.
I have to say that the brush word doesn't look difficult, but it's not like that at all, and after writing it, it's not even as good as a primary school student, and I put the pen down after only writing a few words.
"Tsk, that's a waste of rice paper. Huaisu shook his head and sighed.
Su Wen crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the waste paper pile with his backhand.
"Senior Brother Huaisu, it's better for you to write, the words should be understandable. Su Wen was speechless, this matter is Huaisu's strength, and he can't compare with him.
Huaisu is still a one-stroke this time, and the dragon and phoenix are still dancing on the paper, so the font can barely be recognized.
Su Wen took the paper out and handed it to Xingming, and asked him to make a wooden sign to paste the paper on it and put it up at the bottom of the mountain.
A lot of the work in the monastery, such as tinkering, had to be done by the monks themselves, so making a wooden sign was a trivial matter.
After finishing this matter, Su Wen went directly out of the backyard wall to see the mountain transformation of the back mountain.
These days, a mountain road has been opened next to it, and a dirt road is being paved so that small vehicles can pass, at least two small excavators have to be dragged up with a belt, otherwise it will be too slow and too much manpower will be needed.
In normal years, many trees have sprouted green buds, weeds have emerged from the dirt, and the air smells of grass and earth.
Everywhere Su Wen walked, there were traces of fallen trees dragging around, broken branches and leaves scattered on the ground, and dirt rolled up.
Seeing insects crawling into the distance in the rolled dirt, looking for a new home, Su Wen just gently raised his foot to get out of the way.
It's a terrible place right now, but Suwen is confident that it won't be long before it becomes a blessed land.
……
In Donghai City, in a hotel, several Taoist priests sat casually on the edge of the bed and on chairs.
"This Pure Heart Temple has been here for hundreds of years, but it has not been full of incense, and it was not until last year that Su Wen became the presiding officer. At that time, there was also news that during the Haizhou earthquake last year, this Suwen spent more than a month in Haizhou, and has been known to the world since then. ”
"There were tens of thousands of victims in the Haizhou earthquake last year, and he was alone in the world? Does he have the ability?" a Taoist priest next to him asked, a little unconvinced.
"At that time, Longhu Mountain also sent people to see it, and there were few missing souls in the places that Su Wen said. Occasionally, one or two dissipated in a few days, so we didn't interfere. ”
"That's kind of a good way to say. The other answered. "Zitong, you're a little reckless this time. ”
"How often did he not be reckless?" a young man snorted.
Li Zitong only knew by listening to his voice that it was Qi Zishan, who had never dealt with him well. I sneered in my heart, what can you do if you can't get used to me?
But he still has to go back to the words of the senior brother. At that time, it was Lao Junguan's few people who found the ancient tomb first, but he intervened sideways and forced the others to leave. He can't be allowed to be arrogant. ”
"I heard that it seems that those old Junguan people made the first move, right? I was beaten three or two times, and I didn't have the face to stay there before leaving. Didn't that Zhao Zhongxuan go down to the grave with him?" Qi Zishan said with a sneer.
"That's enough, things have come to this point, Zitong has enough spirits, and I will fight him tomorrow. An old man next to him interrupted a few people.
"Yu Xuanjian, I invited it for you, and it's up to you to do the rest. If you lose, you ...... Let's lose your hair. I can't do anything that goes against my promises. ”
Li Zitong's heart sank, and he hurriedly nodded yes.
After everyone left, a Taoist priest spoke: "Master, if Senior Brother Li loses, is it really ......?"
The old Taoist priest said in a deep voice: "If you lose, let him go." The cultivator still has such a temperament, and he can't go far, so it's all because I've spoiled him too much over the years. ”
Seeing that the old Taoist priest closed his eyes, the Taoist priest also bowed and retreated.
"Senior Brother Li, it's up to you. ”
The Taoist priest said silently in his heart.
…………
Two "royal" cars worth 5 million yuan and a "royal family" worth more than 20 million yuan stopped at the door of the largest hotel in Donghai City at the same time.
Even the bodyguards are in a luxury car of 5 million, which makes people can't help but guess the identity of the owner of the car in the middle.
The door opened, and a young man in a suit came out, followed by a young girl.
The girl grabbed the young man's arm and said softly, "Brother, why don't you go now?"
"What to do now, wait until tomorrow, there is still a good show to watch. The man said with a smile.
"What are your plans?" the girl said, glancing at him.
The man chuckled. "You're smart enough to know I can't hide it from you. ”
"But he's very famous these days, I've heard about it several times. ”
The girl smiled and said: "The last time I saw him, I was still an honest monk, but I didn't expect to make so many troubles." ”
Seeing the manager of the hotel come out from inside, the two stopped talking about it.
The hotel manager looked at the faces of the two and was shocked, how did these two come here. Then he was overjoyed, as long as these two said a word casually, he would be developed in the future. In any case, no matter what the other party asks, it must be met.
…………
Su Wen returned to the temple after taking a turn in the back mountain.
Forrest Gump and Ah Bu ran to Su Wen's side and arched him affectionately.
Su Wen touched the two dogs, made a gesture, and the two dogs chased and ran away again.
I looked at Yilong and the others who were practicing, and the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion took a scripture book and sat at the door to read it carefully.
The sunlight slanted on Su Wen's face, and the light and shadow blended, making the face three-dimensional. The eyes are slightly narrowed, which softens the face.
Tomorrow is the gambling battle, but Su Wen seems to have no such thing. Except for asking Huaisu to write a piece of paper in the morning to refuse customers, there was no action.
Yilong and the others already knew that Su Wen was going to have a gambling battle, although they were confident in their hearts, they were still worried about accidents, but they were more nervous than Su Wen himself. It wasn't until he saw Su Wen's calm appearance that he let go of some of his worries.
For the thoughts of Yilong and others, Su Wen didn't care. His state has been adjusted, his body and mind are calm, and he is waiting for tomorrow's battle.
