Chapter 69

"Where did Master come from?" Jiang Wanbai continued to ask.

A trace of impatience appeared on the monk's face, "Donor, the poor monk is very thirsty, can you give me a bowl of water to drink first." ”

"Oh, well, look at me, just talking to Master, but I forgot about it." Jiang Wanbai said, scooped a scoop of water with a gourd, and handed it to the monk, "Master, don't be surprised, in fact, I am also a believer in Buddhism, so I want to say a few more words when I see Master." Jiang Wanbai sloppy eyes.

The monk took the gourd scoop and drank it really like that, looking at it like that, he was really thirsty, which made Jiang Wanbai a little hesitant, could it be that she was too careful, this monk was just an ordinary monk?

The monk drank a small half scoop of water, and then returned the scoop to Jiang Wanbai, "Since the donor also believes in Buddhism, the poor monk will tell the truth, in fact, I went down the mountain this time to turn into fate, and the golden body of the Buddha is a little damaged, and it should be reshaped."

I wonder if the donor is willing to form this good fate? As he spoke, he took out a bowl from the cloth bag he was carrying and handed it to Jiang Wanbai.

Is this asking for money? Jiang Wanbai began to regret that she had just talked nonsense, she was still poor, and she couldn't wait to break it into an eight-petal flower, how could she have the money to make a Buddha statue for a monk, besides, this is a real monk, maybe it's not a real monk!

But the words have already been said here, just refuse, it's not good, looking around, Jiang Wanbai reached out and took the monk's bowl, walked to the sorghum pile in a few steps, bent down and scooped a bowl full of sorghum grains and handed it to the monk, "Master, a little heart." ”

The monk frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied, but he did not have a seizure, but took the bowl and continued to ask: "Do you know that the donor knows which other family here is willing to make this good fate?" By the way, reshaping the golden body of the Buddha is a great merit, so blessed people are needed. The monk said as he had pointed out.

As soon as he said this, Jiang Wanbai became suspicious again, what is a blessed family? She can't think that it's just a rich family, and if you ask which family has money, it's not like that.

After thinking for a while, she said, "It's not too late to talk about this matter for a while." By the way, Master, you don't know, I also went to Puji Temple last year to listen to the Master's lecture, 'Birth, Animal, Birth but not Existence, for the sake of not being ashamed, long but not slaughtering, is called Xuande', the Master said it is really good, but unfortunately I only remember this sentence, I don't know what it means. ”

Jiang Wanbai pretended to be regretful and said.

The monk's face was full of impatience, "Just listen to it a few more times." He said this perfunctorily, and then he asked the question just now, looking very anxious.

Jiang Wanbai's heart suddenly rose, the sentence she just said was not a Buddhist scripture at all, but a Taoist Tao Te Ching, but this monk didn't hear it at all, this is really a big joke in the world, a monk, he can't even distinguish between Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures.

Unless, this is not a monk at all, that is not a monk, what is he?

took a closer look at the monk, and saw that he looked at his kind eyebrows, but the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were all impetuous, which looked like a monk, and he didn't put the sorghum she gave him just now, he didn't put it in the cloth bag at all, so did he plan to keep it in his hand like this, or would he throw it out when he went out?

The answer is self-evident, it must be the latter, Jiang Wanbaijue's monk is definitely not a good person, he is not pretending to be a monk to cheat and cheat, or he is sent by bandits to inquire about the news, and when it comes to the recent events, I am afraid that the probability of the latter is even higher.

The robber is really here, so what should I do now, Jiang Wanbai looked at the black bean next to him, and was a little hesitant whether to let the black bean bite him.

bit him, this time he drove him away, but he is only a striker, there must be someone behind, in case he remembers and resents him, it will be bad, not afraid of thieves stealing, just afraid of thieves worrying.

Heidou noticed that Jiang Wanbai was looking at it, and also looked up at Jiang Wanbai, but it was very quiet, and it didn't bark at all, which was a response to a sentence, and the biting dog didn't bark.

Just when Jiang Wanbai was thinking about how to do it once and for all, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves at the door, and then a red tall horse appeared there.

Immediately, there was a person sitting upright, wearing a navy blue robe, stepping on thick-soled boots embroidered with cloud patterns, holding a horsewhip in his hand, and he was awe-inspiring, it turned out to be Tang Shaozheng.

Jiang Wanbai was stunned, why did he come? And just when she was stunned, Tang Shaozheng turned over and got off the horse and came to her, but he was not in a hurry to talk to Jiang Wanbai, but frowned and looked at the monk opposite.

If he was not mistaken just now, this monk seemed to be very scared when he saw him, this is really strange, he is not a flood beast, what is this monk afraid of him?

What kind of person is Tang Shaozheng, a person who is crawling in shopping malls and officialdom, his eyes are hooked, and he looks at you as if he wants to hook out all your secrets.

The monk was already scared, and when he looked at him like this, he immediately couldn't stand it, "Since the donor has a guest, the poor monk will leave first." Quickly left such a sentence, and the monk ran out of smoke, and the speed was a few points faster than that of rabbits.

"Who is this?" Tang Shaozheng said in a deep voice, he always felt that this monk was not a good person.

"Maybe it's a robber, or maybe it's ......" Jiang Wanbai whispered, but before she finished speaking, she was taken aback by Tang Shaozheng's reaction, her muscles jumped violently, her eyes opened angrily, and her face was hideous.

"Robber!" The two words Tang Shaozheng said seemed to be squeezed out of between his teeth, which made people shudder when they heard it.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, he took out a seal letter from his sleeve and stuffed it into Jiang Wanbai's hand, "If I haven't come back in an hour, you can take this seal letter and report to the official, and they will definitely send someone here." With that, he was about to get back on his horse.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Wanbai said hurriedly.

"I swore that I would never spare a robber." As he spoke, Tang Shaozheng turned over and got on his horse, and as soon as he pulled the reins, he was about to chase the monk.

"Wait." Jiang Wanbai said, touched the black bean, and motioned for it to remember Tang Shaozheng's taste, "If you really don't come back, I can also bring someone to find you." Jiang Wanbai explained that she knew that she couldn't stop him, so she hurriedly left a way back.

Tang Shaozheng glanced at Jiang Wanbai deeply, bowed his hand, and chased after the monk.

Jiang Wanbai stood at the door and watched, and found that his speed was very fast at first, but it soon slowed down, as if she was afraid of being discovered by someone, which made her have a bad guess, he was afraid that it was not as simple as trying to catch the monk, maybe, he wanted to follow the monk to his lair and have a pot.

Robbers' den? Jiang Wanbai was full of excitement, no wonder he wanted to seal a letter for her and let her call someone! It turned out that he had planned it a long time ago. No, he can't wait an hour to call someone, wait so long, if he really meets a robber, the daylily will be cold.

Now go call someone? But how to go, the ox cart at home is not there, relying on her legs and feet, it is strange not to delay things.

Just when Jiang Wanbai was in a hurry, there was a person on the other side of the road, who was carrying an iron fork on his shoulder, and when he saw Jiang Wanbai, he still said hello, "Auntie, aren't you busy?" ”

Jiang Wanbai turned around and found that this person was also an acquaintance, Tian Wenliang reads;. Just like finding a savior, she hurriedly said: "Are you busy now, help me with something, people's lives are at stake." ”

Tian Wenliang clenched the iron fork in his hand, and said nervously: "I'm on patrol, what's the matter, there is a ...... in my aunt's house" Saying that, he gestured to Jiang Wanbai with his eyes, which meant to ask Jiang Wanbai if there were robbers in his house.

"I don't have time to tell you, you hurry up and take this seal letter to the yamen, and say that the owner of the seal letter has encountered robbers, and let them send someone to rescue them quickly." Jiang Wanbai said, and stuffed the seal letter into Tian Wenliang's hand.

There are really robbers, Tian Wenliang instantly became nervous, "Where are the robbers?" I'm going, what are you going to do, auntie? ”

"Don't ask so much, I'm fine, you go quickly." Jiang Wanbai urged Tian Wenliang.

Tian Wenliang gritted his teeth, handed the iron fork to Jiang Wanbai, and ran towards the county like a wind.

Jiang Wanbai clasped her hands together and looked anxiously into the distance, only hoping that Tian Wenliang would hurry, and even more so that Tang Shaozheng would not have an accident.

Heidou seemed to feel Jiang Wanbai's urgency, squatted on the side, and looked into the distance with Jiang Wanbai.

The waiting time is always grinding, Jiang Wanbai is at the door for a while, in the yard for a while, sitting down for a while, standing up for a while, thinking about what might happen and what she should do.

Do you want to call Tian Lao Er and them back? It's too late, this place is so far from home, and when they come back, it's already too late, and even if they come back, it's useless except to be in a hurry.

Should I sue the third uncle and organize people to save people? No, it's okay for the villagers to patrol the robbers, if they really go to fight the robbers, which is the opponent of those robbers, and then the chaos will be added to the chaos, and then the death and injury will be worse.

This doesn't work, that doesn't work, Jiang Wanbai was anxious, just hoping that Tian Wenliang would come back soon.

After waiting for more than half an hour, seeing that the sun was about to set, Tian Wenliang finally rushed back with a team of people. Those people were wearing official uniforms and holding official swords, there were fifty or sixty people, and the leader was a bearded man, and when he saw Jiang Wanbai, he shouted: "What about people? What about the Tang messenger? ”

"You come with me." Jiang Wanbai patted the head of the black bean, "Hurry up and find someone." ”

Heidou practiced looking for something a few days ago, so he swooped out when he heard the words, sniffing with his nose while walking forward, and Jiang Wanbai led people to follow behind.

The road they took was the road out of the village, and it was also the road for everyone's autumn harvest, so the smell of people and ox carts on the road was particularly mixed, and it was almost an hour later, so it was even more difficult to identify the black beans.

At first, they could also ask the people in the field by the way, asking them if they had seen a monk and a man riding a red horse, but later, the road became more and more remote, and there were fewer and fewer people, so they could only rely on black beans to slowly distinguish, and the speed suddenly slowed down a lot.

"Is this going to work?" The bearded man hurriedly said, "Our master said that if the Tang envoy has three longs and two shorts, we won't go back, old lady, don't harm us." ”

"Is there anything better you can do?" Jiang Wanbai is also anxious, but what's the use of being anxious.

The bearded man choked, "If I have a good way, I still suffer from this bird here?" It's really embarrassing. ”
