Chapter 985: Flying to the Capital (Third Shift)
"The local underworld is so rampant, even if the people want to pray to God and worship Buddha, it may not be of any use. Therefore, people's fate is in their own hands, and it is useless to simply burn incense and worship Buddha. Liu Tao said.
"What you said shook my desire to believe in Buddhism." Wang Rui said.
"You are so easily shaken proves that you are not a true Buddhist. If you are a true Buddhist, you will not be shaken even if you die for a lifetime. Liu Tao smiled slightly and said.
"I've seen that kind of ascetic on TV before, three steps and one bow, nine steps and one bow, and it is really very religious. It's a pity that I definitely can't do it, and I don't have the perseverance. Wang Rui said.
The two men had entered the temple hall as they spoke.
There is only one welcoming monk inside.
Seeing someone coming in, the welcoming monk handed over three pillars of incense.
Wang Rui put on incense, then knelt down and kowtowed three times.
Liu Tao did not worship.
"Doesn't the donor believe in Buddhism?" The welcoming monk asked.
"I don't believe it. If the Buddha can purify all sentient beings, the people of Lindong County will not live in dire straits. Liu Tao shook his head and said.
"The Buddha needs to be moved. As the days go by, there will always be a day when it will be fulfilled. The welcoming monk said.
"What you say is like those experts who advocate that the property market is going to collapse all day long, saying for many years, looking forward to it for many years, but housing prices just don't fall. Maybe the property market will really collapse in a few years, but it is certainly not the credit of these experts, it is the final result of the market economy. Liu Tao said lightly.
"Amitabha." The welcoming monk stopped talking.
Liu Tao took out a thousand yuan from his wallet and threw it into the merit box, and turned around and left with Wang Rui.
"You don't believe in Buddhism, why do you donate so much money?" When she got into the car, Wang Rui asked.
"I don't donate money to the Buddha, I give it to people. These money Buddhas have no chance to spend, and they will eventually fall into the hands of the welcoming monks. The incense here is not prosperous, and it is estimated that there are not many donations, so he always needs to live. Liu Tao said with a smile.
"I guess that the welcoming NetEase nodded, and the monk must feel that he can't see through you. Originally, if you say that you don't believe in Buddhism, he doesn't have much hope for you. I didn't expect you to donate so much money when you turned around. Wang Rui said.
"That's what I am. Now that the incense is burning, isn't it time to go back? I guess it's time for my aunt to wake up. Liu Tao said.
"Hmm." Wang Rui nodded.
The two drove back to the hotel.
Wang Rui just got out of the car. Liu Tao's phone rang.
He waved at Wang Rui, and then pressed the answer button.
The call turned out to be from the old chief. No wonder the unknown number displayed on Liu Tao's mobile phone.
"Grandpa, why did your old man call me suddenly? Do you want to ask about the situation in Lindong County? Liu Tao asked with a smile.
"It's not. Now the relevant departments have sent working groups to Lindong County, and I believe that they will definitely be able to wipe out the ** elements and underworld forces there. I'll call you. I want you to come to the capital. The old chief replied.
"Is someone sick? It seems that this is basically the case with people who come to me to do things now. Liu Tao guessed.
"No way. Who made you a good doctor? It's my old leader who needs your treatment this time. The old chief said.
"Your old leader? Isn't it too old? And it should also be the former leader of the country, right? Liu Tao asked.
"Yes. Prior to his retirement, he served as Head of the Organization Department. The doctor said that he had kidney failure and was afraid that he would not survive for a few days. The old chief said.
"Isn't kidney failure possible to replace a kidney? How can you not survive for a few days? Liu Tao then asked.
"He is too old to withstand the toss of a kidney replacement. I know that people will eventually die, but seeing the painful appearance of the old leader makes my heart feel uncomfortable. If it wasn't for the old leader who promoted me. I wouldn't be where I am today. I hope you can extend his life for another two more years. The old chief said.
"No problem. I'll be on my way right away. Liu Tao said.
"You just wait over there, I've already sent a special plane to pick you up." The old chief said.
"Grandpa, after a long time, you see that people are not discussing me, they are orders!" Liu Tao said.
"Anyway, there is a special plane to pick up, and it won't delay much. Besides, I also know that you are waiting over there for the final result of Xie Dong's gang, don't worry, they will definitely be punished by the law. The old chief said.
"Grandpa, why has this criminal gang in Lindong County been in existence for so many years? I don't believe the provincial officials don't know. I'm afraid there are people behind who are backers. I haven't found out who this backer is yet, waiting for me to find out. Your old man has to do business. Liu Tao said.
"If the evidence is conclusive, it will be severely punished." The old chief promised.
"When will the plane to pick me up?" Liu Tao asked.
"I guess it's going to be there now. There is no special airport in Lindong County, so planes can only land in open fields. Someone will pick you up at the hotel, so don't run around. The old chief instructed.
"Hmm. I'm right in front of the hotel right now. Liu Tao said.
"See you later." The old chief hung up.
Liu Tao waited at the door for a while, and soon two heavily armed soldiers came to him and saluted, one of whom said, "Hello chief!" The old chief sent us to pick you up! ”
Liu Tao saluted the other party back and said, "Where is the plane?"
"Chief, please come with us." The other party said.
Then, Liu Tao came to the place where the plane was temporarily parked.
"Please board the plane." The other party said.
Liu Tao nodded and got on the plane.
The plane quickly started and flew in the direction of the capital.
Since it is in flight condition. So Liu Tao's mobile phone lost signal.
Anyway, he couldn't do anything, so Liu Tao simply chatted with the soldier sitting next to him.
"Don't be so nervous. Which army do you belong to? Liu Tao asked with a smile.
"We belong to the Central Guard Corps." The other party replied.
"It turned out to be a person from the Ninth Bureau. I heard that you are the elite of the elite, and you must be very good at it. We can talk to each other when we have time. Liu Tao said with a smile.
"We don't dare to do anything with the chief. Chief, I won't tell you a secret. We've done many missions and you're the youngest of the bosses. The other party said with some embarrassment.
"Boss? Do you protect all traders? Liu Tao asked with a smile.
"It's not. We're just used to referring to the object of protection as the boss. The other party shook his head and said.
"Are you particularly nervous about your daily tasks? It feels like you're all tight all over your body. No one else is taking it easy here. Liu Tao said.
The other party shook his head and said, "We don't dare to take it lightly. If we make a fatal mistake, the boss's life will be in danger, or even death. (To be continued.) )
