Chapter 174: Temple Fair in the North of the City
After tossing for most of the night, Xiao Ding finally helped the sixth senior sister heal her injuries.
At this time, the sixth senior sister's face was still pale, but there was a faint hint of ruddyness. Breathing gradually stabilized. The wound slowly heals at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although the flesh and blood of the valgus can still be seen, Xiao Ding knows that all the damaged tissues inside her chest cavity have been repaired, and now the difference is only skin trauma.
"Buy more tonics, and you can recover after a while." Xiao Ding said and got up and got out of bed.
Where he had just sit, the sheets were already soaked with sweat.
"Thank you for saving your life, our sisters will never forget!" The seventh senior sister and the little junior sister thanked Xiao Ding together.
"You're welcome, you can change a sheet, and then let your sixth senior sister lie down and rest." Xiao Ding said.
The wound has been repaired, and all that remains is to recuperate and wait for the physical strength to recover, and it will naturally get better.
The seventh senior sister changed a sheet, and then helped the sixth senior sister to lie down slowly. The gloom on her face dissipated.
"Brother Tian, my name is Tinker Bell, you are so good, you will be my big brother in the future. You saved my sixth senior sister's life, how do you want our sisters to repay you? The little junior sister was also happy when she saw that the sixth senior sister's injury was healing.
"You recognize me as a big brother, and you tell me to repay me! I don't need you to repay me, I just happened to meet me when I came back, and for me, saving your senior sister is just a gesture. Xiao Ding said modestly.
"Brother Tian, you are such a good person! In the future, if you can use our Splendid Workshop, even if you open your mouth, although our Splendid Workshop is all women, they are also people who know how to repay their kindness, and they will definitely help Brother Tian. The seventh senior sister saw that the little junior sister recognized Xiao Ding as the eldest brother, so she also called Xiao Ding the eldest brother.
"Okay, then thank you in advance!" Xiao Ding said with a fist. secretly thought, these people are really from the Splendid Workshop.
Seeing that it was already the middle of the night, Xiao Ding decided to go back to his room to catch up on sleep. He stood up and offered to take his leave.
The little junior sister named Tinker Bell got up to see her off and said, "Brother Tian lives next door?" You can come and talk to me if you have time, and you can also go to Yangzhou to play with us in the future, the headquarters of our Jinxiufang is in Yangzhou, but it's a pity that my master she was plotted by others......"
When Xiao Ding heard this, he thought to himself, they really came to the soul suppression bead of the Gao Wangfu. So he reminded: "If you want to use the soul suppression bead of King Gao's Mansion to save your master, I advise you to prepare some gifts, come to the door to apologize, and then explain the reason, then Old Lord Gao may be able to lend you the beads." ”
"Brother Tian, how do you know that we want the Soul Suppression Bead?" Tinker Bell was shocked when she heard Ding's words. The seventh senior sister also looked at Xiao Ding in surprise.
"Because I just came back from King Gao's mansion tonight." Xiao Ding said.
"Brother Tian, you already know about us?" Tinker Bell asked curiously.
"I just heard Old Lord Gao mention that today the palace caught two assassins from the Earth Demon Valley, and they are also going to steal the soul beads. From the mouths of the two assassins, I learned about the Fairview Workshop, which is why you said that you are from the Fairview Workshop, so I will remind you. I still advise you not to steal the beads, for the palace is heavily guarded, and you cannot steal them. It's better to come to the door to ask for guilt and offer to borrow it, then the old prince is also a reasonable person, and he should lend it to you. Xiao Ding reminded them again.
"Okay, thank you Brother Tian for mentioning it. If we can really lend the Soul Suppression Bead and save our master, Brother Tian will be the great benefactor of our entire sect. When the time comes, Brother Fantian has a request, and we will not give up on the splendid workshop! Senior Sister Seven said gratefully.
Xiao Ding returned to his room and fell asleep on the bed. Tossing in the middle of the night, he was already tired.
The next day, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, early in the morning, Xiao Ding was woken up by the sound of firecrackers everywhere on the street. I had no choice but to get up and wash.
The inn guy was still very considerate and brought free dumplings with big fillings. This made Xiao Ding's favorability of this inn rise rapidly. It seems that the owner of this inn is also a good businessman and a marketing master.
It's just that on holidays, give small favors to customers, and immediately gain the customer's favorability of the inn. If you come to Zhongzhou City next time, you will definitely choose this inn. Invisibly, it has already won repeat customers.
After breakfast, Xiao Ding went out and went around the street again, and there was still a festive atmosphere for the New Year everywhere.
On the street, Xiao Ding heard passers-by say that from the first day of the new year to the fifteenth day, the North Buddha Temple in the city will hold a temple fair. I thought that it would be okay to be idle anyway, so I might as well go over and join in the fun.
So, Xiao Ding followed the passers-by all the way to the north of the city.
The farther north the city, the more people gathered. When Xiao Ding came to the Big Buddha Temple, he found that the square in front of the Big Buddha Temple was already crowded.
There are people everywhere, storytellers, singers, beggars, performers, dragon dancers, lion puppeteers, incense stickers, Buddha worshippers, people who make money by doing all kinds of small trades, and those who are so idle that they wander around...... All kinds of people have it.
The New Year's temple fair can be regarded as the largest annual gathering in Zhongzhou City. From the first day of the new year to the fifteenth day of the new year, for half a month, there will be crowds of people basically every day.
Xiao Ding walked in the crowd, because it was the first time to come to the ancient temple fair, so he would feel new when he saw anything. Almost every stall has to stop for a while, and after looking at it for a while, it will be boring before leaving and replacing it with another one.
Unconsciously, with the flow of people, I have walked into the Big Buddha Temple.
The courtyard of the Big Buddha Temple is very large, and there is a wishing pond in the courtyard of the front yard, and many pilgrims will throw copper coins into the pool to make wishes, praying for peace and blessings.
When Xiao Ding saw it, he thought to himself, it turns out that not only the temples of later generations have done this, but the ancient temples have already understood this method of collecting money!
There is also a house not far from the entrance of the front yard, which is a place to sell Buddha incense offerings and the like. Those who come to offer incense must buy Buddha incense offerings here before they can go to the Buddha hall inside to burn incense and worship the Buddha offerings.
There is also a donation box at the door of the house. It reads, "Accumulate virtue and do good, merit is immeasurable!" Eight big characters.
Xiao Ding stood there and looked at it for a while, and saw that there were really many people who took out copper coins from their arms, or scattered pieces of silver and threw them into the donation box.
Xiao Ding secretly thought, it turned out that donating money to the monk was "accumulating virtue and doing good, and the merit was immeasurable"!
At this moment, Xiao Ding suddenly saw a luxury carriage driving in from the temple gate. Forty or fifty armed guards were escorting the carriage.
After the carriage entered the courtyard, a young man wearing a noble brocade robe got out of the carriage, and when he saw the heroic clothes on this son, he knew that he must be a noble son of a certain family.
Childe's waist is also equipped with a sword, and the scabbard is carved with a dragon and a phoenix inlaid with precious stones, which looks very luxurious.
Xiao Ding looked at the son, and said in his heart that this person's identity must not be simple, who could he be?
