Chapter 54: The Bodhisattva's Manifestation
"Shangyuan Festival...... Miss...... The gongs and drums in front of the building were noisy, Chu Yun'er only heard a few words intermittently, and the two of them walked behind the gongs and drums with a wide red banner on the street, because the distance was too far, Chu Yun'er couldn't see what was written on the banner.
There was a knock on the door of the inn, and the shopkeeper walked in with a food plate, he placed the dishes, and saw Chu Yun'er standing by the window with the second master with her eyebrows, so she carefully explained: "If the girl thinks it's too noisy, you can close the window, today is the last day, and tomorrow won't be so noisy."
Chu Yun'er turned her head when she heard the voice, and asked suspiciously, "Little Second Brother, what are those people doing?" Is there anything big going on in the city?"
The shopkeeper lowered his head shyly, and suddenly looked at Chu Yun'er with some embarrassment, this girl is as gentle as water, as beautiful as a fairy, even better than the first beauty in Rongcheng, it is simply a fairy descending to earth, and the girl still calls him "brother", although there are still two words "Xiaoer" in front, her heartbeat is inexplicably faster, and her speech has become a little slurred.
"Auntie...... Girl, those people are the house slaves outside the Liuyuan of Rongcheng, there is an only daughter outside the Liuyuan, named Liu Lanyi, this Miss Liu not only has the posture of the city, but also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the eyes are above the top, eight out of ten are still waiting for the word boudoir, tomorrow at noon of the Shangyuan Festival, the Liuyuan outside the willow wadding (restaurant) held a hydrangea in front of the restaurant, it is to choose a husband for Miss Liu"
"Really? It should be very lively, can't you go there too?"
"Me? Hehe, the villain is self-aware, and he is not worthy of the Miss Liu family" The shopkeeper scratched his head embarrassedly, and continued: "All young talents who have no wives and concubines in the family and have not yet taken relatives can participate, and can also inherit the Wanguan family property of the Liu family, this Liu Yuan is the richest man in Rongcheng, and Miss Liu is the first beauty in Rongcheng, but ...... The girl is more ...... than Miss Naliu It's better looking" The shopkeeper blushed and lowered his head, never daring to look directly at Chu Yun'er.
"Really? Haha......" Chu Yun'er laughed crookedly on the second master, and her hearty and undisguised laughter caused the shopkeeper to raise his head curiously.
Chu Yun'er leaned on the second master's chest and giggled, the second master wrapped one arm around her shoulder, and the intimacy between the two was clear at a glance. Recruiting Ran, looking at the eyes into a pair of obsidian-like clear and deep black pupils, the man's face is like a crown of jade, the posture is quite beautiful, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is shocking, but if you look closely, you will find that the man's handsome face, a pair of eyes are cold, like a thousand years of ice in a cold pool, so cold that people shiver.
The shopkeeper trembled unconsciously, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Auntie...... Girl slow use, little ...... After saying that, the villain couldn't wait to leave the room with the tray, and went downstairs, but he still felt that the cold eyes lingered behind him, and he patted his chest in hindsight, and said to himself: "Calm, calm, don't look at it in the future, don't look at it randomly."
Chu Yun'er and Hongyu finished their dinner, so they rested early, there will be excitement to see tomorrow, how could she miss it, she wants to see the ancient hydrangea throwing to recruit relatives.
In the middle of the night, she was woken up by the "crunch" sound of pushing the window, and when she looked around, she found that the second master was coming in through the window of the room, and he was carrying a huge gray cloth bag on his shoulder, and the contents of the cloth bag made a "bang" sound.
The gray cloth bag was thrown beside Chu Yun'er, the second master's eyes were clear, and he looked at her hopefully and said, "Yun'er, silver"
Chu Yun'er didn't react, she untied the burden, the burden was opened, Chu Yun'er sat up with a bang, she went to the ground in a panic, sure that no one was following outside the window, and quickly closed the window, before pulling the second master's arm and asking anxiously: "Second master, where did this come from, you went to steal it"
Chu Yun'er looked at the silver ingots piled up like a hill on the gray cloth with shocked eyes, she couldn't believe it, even if she didn't know the ancient silver taels, she knew that this pile of hundreds of silver ingots like small boats was thousands of taels to say the least, and it was impossible for ordinary people to have so much silver, unless a large wealthy merchant or the government would hoard a large amount of cash, isn't this a disaster to kill yourself by vain?
"Second master, you can send it wherever you take it" Chu Yun'er tied the burden as it was and stuffed it back into the second master's hand.
"Yun'er, silver, give it to you" The second master put the burden back on the bed and said to Yun'er.
"Second master, I don't want it, send it back, we have silver, how can we take so much, we will be hunted down by others"
"Don't be afraid, with me, I'll carry it" The second master puffed up his chest and said seriously.
"......" Chu Yun'er was speechless, looked at the second master's ignorant and a little smug smile with a headache, and said hurriedly: "If you don't send it back, you won't be allowed to go to bed."
This sentence brought a strong auditory impact to the second master, and in an instant, the face that was soft just now was immediately gloomy, and the deep eyes shrouded Chu Yun'er's gradually pale face, cold as frost.
Chu Yun'er, who was accustomed to being arrogant and coquettish by the side of the second master, was extremely scared at this time, and in the months of getting along day and night, day and night, she was so lax that she had forgotten that the second master was not a human after all, but a zombie who gathered the resentment of heaven and earth and was bloodthirsty.
After a moment of confrontation, the second master had a gloomy face, grabbed the burden on the bed like a remote object, angrily pushed open the window, and disappeared into the hazy and empty street at night.
It was only half an hour, the second master came back, or entered the room through the window, he seemed to be in a very good mood, he slowly sat on the edge of the bed, hugged Chu Yun'er, who was sitting on the quilt and waiting for him, into his arms, and said softly: "Yun'er, the silver is sent back"
Chu Yun'er let out a soft "um" and finally put her mind at ease.
The careless Chu Yun'er didn't notice the cunning in the eyes of the second master. The second master did not send the silver back to its original place, he ran around the city with the silver, and when he was distressed that he could not find a place to throw the silver, he suddenly found a group of refugees in tattered clothes and nowhere to live in the broken temple in the south of the city.
Hundreds of silver ingots with white flowers are piled up in the middle of the broken temple, the refugees are lined up in an orderly manner, one person receives a ingot, at first a few young descendants knelt down to thank the second master for his generosity, and finally brought hundreds of refugees in the whole temple to kneel on the ground and bow, by which the second master soared into the sky, disappeared in the night, the simple people shouted even more: "The Bodhisattva has appeared, the gods have descended to earth, thank the Buddha for his mercy ......"
The second master didn't understand the gratitude of the people, but hundreds of people knelt on the ground, and when they shouted and bowed to him, he had a sense of accomplishment without words, a sense of pride in looking down on the world and overlooking all beings. When he admitted that Chu Yun'er wanted him to send back the silver, he really wanted to yell violently, but he didn't want to see Chu Yun'er unhappy, but at this time, he was as happy as if he had eaten a few high-grade Yuan Dan.
