It was just dark, and in the small shed next to the entrance of the South City Gate of Youchuan, Liu Tou and Brother Wang were chatting happily with their hands, and seeing that the dry firewood in the brazier was about to be burned, Liu Tou asked a little thin man to go out to carry dry firewood.

The man had just gone out, and he ran in again in a panic.

"Master Liu, I sound like a horse is coming!"

Brother Wang on the side laughed and said: "It's so late, where are the horses, skinny toad, don't lie to us, we won't go to the ......"

"Shut up!" Liu Tou on the side seemed to feel something, so he ordered: "Go out and have a look!" ”

He walked out with a group of people, and as soon as he came out, he heard the sound of horses' hooves running from far to near, Liu Tou frowned and said, "It's so late, what else do you have to go out of the city?" Three horses were also sent! Then he listened and said, "There is still a carriage." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a fast horse running out of the night, and the rider held the token in one hand and shouted loudly: "Brother Liu, open the city gate quickly, there are some urgent matters in the yamen to go out of the city!" ”

"Hey, it's Zhao Zhutou, are you still going out of the city so late?"

He took the token in one hand, looked it up and down carefully, took out the register again, and asked the carriage coming from behind, "What's in here?" ”

"Master Liu, it's me!" The dog lifted the curtain in front of the carport and said with a bulging mouth.

"Hey, it's a puppy? Why are you here? What are you doing here? ”

The dog held a half-pulled meat steamed bun in his hand, and burped in his mouth and said, "Let's go out and find someone" After speaking, he took out a meat steamed bun from the basket in front of his feet, and said, "Master Liu, do you eat meat steamed buns?" ”

Liu Tou shook his head with a smile and said, "If I don't eat it, you can eat it yourself!" Then he asked Zhao Zhutou, "Will you come back in a while?" ”

Zhao Zhutou pressed his handprint on the entry and exit book, and then said with a smile: "If you want to come back, you will have to trouble Liu Ye to open the door for a while." ”

With a wave of his hand, Brother Wang took the two of them to open the door, first moved the rung, and then opened two iron locks before opening the city gate.

Zhao Zhutou waved his hand, and a group of mermaids rushed out, just listening, driving! And the man ran away and lost his shadow.

Brother Wang spat out the sand in his mouth and squeaked shut the city gate.

The county lieutenant's hall was brightly lit, but the main hall on the east side was different.

"Dongming, did you see them driving the carriage out?"

The official named Dongming hurriedly held his hands and said: "Master Sun, the villain just ran to see it, and it was Zhao Zhutou who was in charge, two fast horses, and a carriage!" The monkey ran out of the yamen in a hurry, and he didn't know where he had gone! ”

Master Sun Bo smiled and said: "Where can I run, I will go on stage tomorrow, but this singer is gone, hahaha"

He laughed heartily, and when he saw Dongming's worried face, he comforted: "Don't worry Dongming, even ghosts and gods have to fight for incense to eat, not to mention that it is a Taoist priest who is a flesh fetus, and if he accepts my money and then comes to bad rules, then he is not a good Taoist, and there is no need to put up a name." ”

Dongming said: "Then who are they going to pick up in a carriage?" ”

Master Sun lowered his head and pondered: "It is probably a cat and a dog, and it is just right for us to have fun!" ”

"The proprietor is really wise!" Behind the table, there were faint sounds of praise and sycophancy.

Master Sun raised his hand and said: "Okay, okay, when you say good things, you fight bravely one by one, but the mud can't support the wall at the critical moment, if it weren't for you, I'm like this, what do you laugh at yourself all day long, 'the book doesn't leave your body, the pen doesn't leave your hand, it's really a big deal when it comes to the occasion, you talk about you, even the group of reckless people can't say it!" ”

There was a crackling crack, and it was also a loss that the lights were dim and I couldn't see everyone's faces clearly, so Master Sun Bo Hao was angry, and then said: "When there is such an errand in the future, whoever shrinks back for me will not enter my door!" ”

A group of people hurriedly swore from heaven to earth that there would be no next time.

Sun Zhubo then commanded: "They are brightly lit, we can't lag behind, go to a few people to light a few more candles, lest some people say that we are dragging our feet and not doing our best!" ”

It is very torturous to rush the night road, because the oil lamps on the two corners of the carriage are dim and can only see the surrounding three or five steps away, so the road is very bumpy, and the dog in the car almost vomited out the meat steamed buns that were eaten in the stomach.

Hurry up and hurry, and finally arrived at the boundary of Liujia Village, it looked pitch black from a distance, where there was a little light.

Zhao Zhutou, who led the way, had no choice but to stop, ran to the carriage and asked where the dog was.

The dog covered his mouth and pointed to the stream one step wide on the left: "Go along the stream, don't turn around halfway, walk on a pillar of incense and you will come to a pond, there is a low temple five steps wide on the east side of the pond, people should be in it, last time he came here he and I want to eat soju!" ”

Zhao Zhutou responded, and saw that the bank of the stream was relatively narrow, so he tied the horse to the side, and the two of them walked away with a lamp and a waist knife.

Looking at the light from afar, farther and farther away, smaller and smaller, it suddenly went out! The dog didn't make a good noise, so he jumped out of the carriage, shouted to the strong man who was driving, and ran along the bank of the stream.

One didn't pay attention, fell to the ground with a bang, didn't care about crying out for pain, quickly got up and stumbled forward.

I forgot to tell the two of them that this great monk has a forty-pound iron rod, and three or five people can't enter the body when they dance.

Sure enough, the sound of weapons clashing and screaming and roaring came from afar, and the dog hurriedly quickened his pace.

After crossing a small tributary that went to the west, and running a hundred and ten paces, he came to a pond, and saw three shadows facing each other in front of the shadowy little temple.

I only heard the big monk scolding in a loud voice: "Where did the thief come from and didn't sleep in the middle of the night, came to steal my Zen staff, and carefully broke your dog's leg with an iron rod of the poor monk!" ”

After saying that, he spat in the palm of his right hand, wiped a handful on his shiny bald head, and rushed forward with an iron rod and shouting.

On the other side, Zhao Zhutou and the first two also scolded and fought with him with a waist knife.

Seeing this, the dog hurriedly shouted at them: "Great monk, don't do anything to catch the head of Zhao!" It's all about their own family members, and they don't hurt their bodies. ”

The two waves of people didn't care about the dogs, just in the open space of the small temple, one attacked and two defended, and walked for more than thirty rounds in an instant, seeing that the two waves of people became more and more vindictive, the waist knife slashed on the iron rod and dragged out a spark, shining on the bald head of the great monk for a while.

The dog was afraid that a few people would really get angry, so he shouted a few more times at the top of his throat, and when he saw that a few people still didn't stop, he watched anxiously from the side.

Seeing the fast catcher who followed Zhao Zhutou, he only cared about covering the iron rod in front of him, but forgot to pay attention to his feet, and he tripped over a shallow pit and fell to the ground when he was unstable, the big monk laughed, left him alone and went to fight Zhao Zhutou, close to two meters, the big iron rod weighing forty pounds was round and smashed to Zhao Zhutou's head.

"Bang bang bang" is only a three-foot-long narrow waist knife, where can it block such a hard smash, with a click, it was neatly broken into two, and Zhao Zhutou was also shocked to the ground by the remaining force.

Seeing that the great monk was carrying a Zen staff and striding towards Zhao Zhutou.

The dog hurriedly picked up the lantern on the ground, and when he took it out of his arms, he remembered that he had forgotten to bring the flint, so he threw it aside, put his hands together and shouted at him: "Idiot bald donkey, don't be prestigious anymore, don't stop quickly!" ”

A bald donkey woke him up, and the footsteps that were originally towards Zhao Zhutou turned around on the spot and turned to the dog.

"Puppy, are you alright?"

The big monk touched his bald head and looked at the dog excitedly.

The dog glared at him, hurriedly ran to Zhao Zhutou's side, stretched out his hands to help him up, and said:

"Brother Zhao, how are you, are you injured?"

Zhao Zhutou coughed and took the dog's hand and stood up, patted the soil on his body and said: "It's okay dog, this monk has strength under his hands, otherwise my brother would have broken his head with an iron rod!" ”

The catcher who came next to him got up early, walked over with a smile and said, "This great monk obviously wants to weigh the two of us!" ”

The dog hurriedly hugged his fists and bowed his hand and apologized: "Two brothers, they all blame the kid for neglecting this, this great monk since he recovered from his illness, as if he was stunned, ran on the mountain every day and smashed the big tree with an iron rod in his arms, and the big trees in our village were killed by him." ”

Zhao Zhutou coughed, glanced at the idiot next to him in a dark color and said, "This monk is so profound!" ”

The dog pouted and said: "The fart kung fu, even a pig didn't dare to kill during the New Year, let him press the pig's leg, but his mouth said Amitabha, and then the pig ran away, with the pig-killing knife on his neck, he ran crazy in the village three times before he died of blood, and when he ate meat, he coveted other people's blood tofu, coaxed my mother out, and walked several houses before he asked for a bowl of blood tofu!" ”

Listening to the dog talk about the big monk's troubles, the two of them hugged their stomachs and laughed.

The idiot on the side didn't change his face a little, and said the Buddha name to the two of them with a straight face, then turned his head and explained to the dog: "Little dog, I still thought that these two men were coercing you, and the third watch ran over to arrest me in the middle of the night, so I used a little trick to knock them to the ground, and then rescued you from the predicament!" It turns out that you know, it was the poor monk who made a mistake, Amitabha, who broke your weapon, and the two donors still hope to forgive the poor monk for being rude,"

Zhao Zhutou and the two hurriedly returned the salute and said: "It's okay, it's all a misunderstanding, there are a lot of waist knives in the Yamen armory room" and the two sides unveiled it.

The dog saw that the two sides were reconciled, so he went to the temple to find a flint, and lit the lantern on the ground, and saw the great monk looking at him with a puzzled expression.

"Ahem, the great monk and I have a small matter to ask you for help!"

The idiot clasped his hands together and said: "I don't go, I want to chant mantras and sit on the road to participate in Zen!" ”

Zhao Zhutou, who was listening from the side, saw that the big monk seemed to be unwilling, and his heart instantly pinched, if it was an ordinary person, it would be okay to be forcibly tied up, but this great monk had an iron rod in one hand, which made him superb, and he always felt that the two of them couldn't resist it again, so he dared to tie him up, so he had to hand over his eyes to the dog.

The dog pouted, ignored him, went directly into the temple, pulled a piece of clean linen, rummaged through the tattered quilt at the head of the bed, put the duke, the wooden fish, and the bowl into it, made a small burden on the opposite corner, put it on his back and walked out to him: "Let's go!" You have wine and meat to eat, and you have money to take, and when you are done with your work, you will come back and recite your scriptures." ”

The great monk immediately smiled, said well, and turned to enter the small temple.

The dog asked, "Why are you still in there?" ”

The great monk said: "My clothes, as well as the quilt that your mother made for me, don't be stolen!" ”

The dog pouted and said, "Whatever you want, what kind of broken it is, if you lose it, you lose it!" Hurry up, they will buy you a new one! ”
