Xiao Ding saw a noble son in the Big Buddha Temple in the north of the city, and knew that this person's identity must be noble, but he couldn't guess who it would be.

I saw that the boy took out some loose silver and threw it into the donation box, and then walked into the room where the Buddha incense was sold. Xiao Ding turned around and walked towards the temple.

The reason why the temple is called the temple is because there is an oversized bronze Buddha in the main hall of the temple.

Xiao Ding followed the pilgrims to the main hall of the temple and saw the big Buddha at a glance. It was a statue of the Buddha, with a kind and majestic face, and its whole body was shining with golden light, three or four feet high.

Xiao Ding felt that such a huge Buddha statue could not be made of brass all over its body, but it was very likely to be copper-plated. Otherwise, such a large Buddha statue is cast in copper, and at least dozens of tons of brass are needed. In this ancient time when resources were scarce, so much brass was not much more valuable.

There are many people outside the temple, but there are not many people in this hall.

Basically, people who come to offer incense will enter the main hall. Other people who hang out like Xiao Ding are probably afraid that the Buddha will blame, so most of them will not enter the main hall.

The people who came to offer incense were all lined up at the door, there were no monks to guard them, and everyone was very conscious, and there was no phenomenon of cutting in line.

Xiao Ding didn't come to offer incense, so he didn't line up, so he walked directly into the hall. I turned around in front of the big Buddha, and I saw that the incense table was full of all kinds of offerings, which were bought by pilgrims from the door and put here.

Xiao Ding thought to himself, will the monks wait for the pilgrims to leave and then put them away and send them to the house at the door to resell them to the pilgrims?

Every pilgrim who comes to offer incense is a pious look, with words in his mouth and different wishes. I don't know if this wish is spiritual.

Anyway, Xiao Ding was originally an atheist, and in the world of later generations, he has seen all kinds of deceptive tricks, and he will not believe the one in the temple.

At this moment, Xiao Ding found that the noble prince who had just come was already at the back of the line at this time, and his guards were also accompanying him, all holding a lot of Buddha incense and offerings in their hands.

Gui Gongzi did not rush ahead of others because of his power, but automatically and consciously took the initiative to line up. This made Xiao Ding have a good impression of this son.

Facts have proved that not all rich sons are gentlemen, and there are also many cultivated rich second generations.

It didn't take long for the noble son to be in line.

He came to the Buddha statue, took the offerings from the guards, placed them on the incense table, and then took the Buddha incense and lit it and inserted it into the huge incense burner. Then he made a pious gesture, knelt on the futon, kowtowed three times, then straightened his upper body, folded his hands, and said silently: "Great mercy and compassion Buddha, bless my mother with a speedy recovery, if the Buddha can manifest and bless my mother to recover as soon as possible, I am willing to fast three days a month, and then come and buy 1,000 taels of silver of incense and offerings to you......"

Xiao Ding's ears are much smarter than ordinary people's ears, so all the words whispered silently in the mouth of the noble son were heard by Xiao Ding, and he secretly admired in his heart, this noble son is still a filial son, and this incense is actually to pray for his mother's illness.

Just as the noble boy finished praying and was about to get up, Xiao Ding suddenly found that a bow and arrow suddenly stretched out from behind the huge Buddha incense, aiming directly at the noble son......

Someone assassinated! This was Xiao Ding's first reaction.

didn't have time to think about it, Xiao Ding jumped and shouted in his mouth: "Son, be careful!" Directly threw the noble son to the ground.

With a "whoosh", a feathered arrow shot out from behind the Buddha statue, flew over Xiao Ding's back, and hit one of the guards in the shoulder.

At this time, the noble son who was knocked down by Xiao Ding and pressed under him finally came to his senses, and hurriedly shouted: "Catch the assassin!" ”

The guards drew their swords and chased after the statue.

Xiao Ding also got up from the noble boy at this moment, dusted off the dust on his body, and glanced at the noble son.

The heart said, the protagonists in other people's novels are all beautiful women, and when it is their turn, it is a boy who falls, why is the gap between people so big?

At this time, there was already a fight behind the Buddha statue. The guards found the man in black who had just shot the arrow behind the Buddha statue, so they quickly surrounded him and beat him up in groups.

But the man in black's martial arts were not weak, and although the guards surrounded him, they couldn't help him at all.

He fought and retreated, and one retreated in the direction of the entrance of the main hall.

Just now, because of the surprise attack, one of the guards was shot in the shoulder, and the pilgrims who were lining up at the door were already frightened and fled. So at the moment there was no one at the door.

Xiao Ding saw the man in black retreat to the door, ready to escape. He took out a beaded crossbow from his satchel.

But at this time, there were too many guards besieging the man in black, and Xiao Ding didn't dare to fire crossbow arrows, for fear of accidentally injuring the guards.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the man in black to arrive at the door, and Xiao Ding also followed to the door and aimed the Lianzhu crossbow at the man in black.

But the man in black didn't notice Xiao Ding, and after he stepped out of the house, he turned over and jumped onto the eaves. At the same time, Xiao Ding's Lianzhu crossbow was also launched.

As soon as the man landed on the eaves, he was shot with three crossbow arrows.

One shoulder, one back, one calf.

He let out an "oops", slipped his legs, and fell off the eaves again.

The guards swarmed up and raised their blades to restrain the man in black.

At this time, the noble prince also came to the door from the main hall. hugged his fist at Xiao Ding and said, "Thank you for coming forward to save me just now!" In the lower Song Twelve grateful! ”

Xiao Ding waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I also happened to see it, you don't have to be so polite!" ”

"Dare to ask Engongzun's surname, where is the fairy township, I will come to the door to thank you one day!" The noble prince clasped his fists again and saluted.

Xiao Ding Xin said, this son knows how to etiquette, but unfortunately, if it's a beauty, it's good, it's okay to talk to him more, but it's a pity that it's a little brother, and it's not interesting to be close to him!

So Xiao Ding waved his hand again and said, "My name is Tian Xiaoding, you don't have to give me a gift all the time, I was just a gesture just now, and you don't have to worry about it." ”

"No, no! The ancients said that when they received the grace of a drop of water, they would be reciprocated by a spring, and they would be good and good. The lamb still has the grace of kneeling milk, the crow also knows the meaning of feeding, and the swimming fish also feels the feeling of flowing water, not to mention people? Although I am not a sage of the ancients, I have also read the books of sages, how can I be kind and not repay, am I not an unkind and unrighteous person? The noble prince generously argued.

When Xiao Ding heard this, his head grew bigger, and he said in his heart that this son must have read a lot of sage books! The great truths preached are all quoted from the scriptures and classics. As far as his own knowledge reserves, in front of him, it is not worth mentioning at all!

There was no way, Xiao Ding had no choice but to say helplessly: "Okay, Song Gongzi, I actually came to Zhongzhou to do business, and now I live in the 'Tianxia Inn', you don't have to go to the door to thank me, I have already received your thanks." ”

When the noble prince heard this, he hurriedly said: "Since Tian Engong lives in this Zhongzhou city, he will definitely come to the door with gifts to thank you." I, Song Twelve, am definitely not an ungrateful person! ”

When Xiao Ding heard this, he almost fainted!
