As soon as the fat monk heard the words "bronze Buddha statue", he jumped up in a hurry, took out the Buddha statue from under his armpit, handed the Buddha statue to Zhou Nan's eyes and argued: "This good man, I'm afraid it's not a debutant, right?" This pure gold eight-treasure lotus Buddha was rewarded to the host by a princess in Yanjing City because she asked for the prince. ”

The fat monk said this, and also turned the Buddha statue in his hand in front of Zhou Nan's eyes, without waiting for Zhou Nan to take a closer look, he pulled the Buddha statue back, and hid it in the monk's robe, he was wide and fat, and the monk's robe he wore was even fatter, and the Buddha statue was hidden in the robe, and he couldn't see it at all, which made Zhou Nan wonder if his monk's robe was also stolen.

The fat monk wanted to leave, but he was afraid of the short knife in Zhou Nan's hand, swallowed his saliva, and said to Zhou Nan with a smile on his face: "I'm afraid that the hero is just coming here, right?" I want my crazy monk to go south and north, I have seen all the big and small battles, everyone on the rivers and lakes gives me three points of thin noodles, look at the brother, you are also unfamiliar with the road, if I point you to a place, to ensure that you have endless gold and silver pearls, enjoy endless flowers in the blessings, it is better than this poor mountain and broken temple, you and I are also good to have a good fate, how? ”

Zhou Nanzhi couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, what kind of monk is this? A mouthful of Jianghu dialect is smoother than chanting.

Knowing that this kind of person is a dead pig and is not afraid of boiling water, Zhou Nan put away the short knife, inserted it into the leg wrap in the trouser leg, and asked according to the fat monk's words: "I didn't expect that you, a monk, still have friends in the rivers and lakes, but I don't know when to come here to place an order?" What do you call a monk? ”

The fat monk saw that a few words frightened Zhou Nan, put away the short knife, and said with a smug smile: "The Sprinkle family was originally from the Song Dynasty, the ancestral home is Lin'an Mansion, and the practice is in Lingyin Temple, the common family name is Jia, and the legal name is Mingzan......"

Zhou Nan looked at the monk in surprise and asked, "You are Mingzan?" ”

The fat monk couldn't imagine that there were still people who knew his Dharma name, so he couldn't help but say proudly: "The Sprinkle family is Mingzan, practicing in Lingyin Temple, and later ...... Later, the master said that I was stupid by nature and not conducive to epiphany, but it was the secret and Northern Sect that practiced the Fa, so he ...... me Let me travel north. ”

Zhou Nan couldn't help but smile and asked, "Now that the Buddha statue is in hand, it's time to travel again?" ”

"It's ......" The fat monk replied respectfully, and was about to speak, when he suddenly realized that Zhou Nan was ridiculing him for being a thief, and he was silent angrily.

Zhou Nan looked at the fat monk just now, but nine of the sentences seemed to be false, obviously his master drove him out, and even he didn't practice at all, thinking that the Lingyin Temple is a famous mountain treasure temple, and the temple is full of high-ranking monks, how can it be like what the fat monk said? Zhou Nan suddenly asked: "Don't hide it from me, you just worked for the Lingyin Temple, and you were kicked out by the master in the temple because of your stubborn character, but?" ”

The fat monk opened his mouth to speak, opened a few sheets, and finally said, "How do you know?" ”

Zhou Nan smiled and said, "Tell me, if there is a lie this time, I have my own way to let the monks in the temple arrest you here." ”

The fat monk fell into the hands of Zhou Nan, knowing that he couldn't hide, and he also knew that Zhou Nan must have come to the temple for something, not for him, so he said truthfully: "The small surname is Jia, and there is no name, everyone only calls me Jia Qi, the small ancestor originally had a few acres of thin fields, and was given to Lingyin Temple by the imperial court as a porridge field, and the small one worked for the temple, because he was hungry, he slipped to the temple porridge hall, got some food, and was driven out by the monks in the temple." Jia Qi looked at Zhou Nan's face, and then said, "Start traveling." ”

After speaking, Jia Qi squeezed out a few tears in his eyes and said, "I beg the good man to spare the little one, I just stole some things to make a living, and I have never killed anyone." ”

Zhou Nan also has no intention of exploring the roots of this Jia Qi, he can't always stay in this monk's room, this Jia Qi is actually a person who is abducted and deceived and greedy for enjoyment, and he is used to seeing the scene, and he is cunning by nature, but also because this person's own legal name is Mingzan, doesn't it mean that this person is really a broker for Gao Feng? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, and said to Jia Qi: "Do you want to be rich and prosperous in the second half of your life?" ”

When Jia Qi heard Zhou Nan say this, he looked at Zhou Nan suspiciously, and said, "Who doesn't want to be a rich man?" It's just a dream. ”

Zhou Nan said: "You put down the Buddha statue and come with me." Guarantee you prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life. ”

Jia Qi said in disbelief: "But you have to be a good person and trick me into returning this Buddha statue made of gold beads to the monk." ”

Zhou Nan knew that if he opened his mouth casually to say something, Jia Qi would not believe it at all, so he said to Jia Qi: "Do you know why Lord Zhizhou came to ask the presiding monk just now?" ”

Jia Qi also heard the words of Gao Feng and the host just now, that Gao Feng obviously had something to ask for the host, but the host monk was too rigid and refused to do it. If the adult comes to ask for himself, of course he will accept it first, and if he can do it, he will be rewarded generously; If you can't do it, you have to ask for a deposit first, and then slip away halfway......

Zhou Nan saw that Jia Qi's eyes were rolling around, and he knew that he had a ghost in his heart, so he ignored him, and only said: "Then Lord Zhizhou entrusts him with the lives of the people of the Quanzhou Mansion, and the matter is done, not to mention the official position, the reward must be not small." And what Lord Zhizhou asked for is not risky at all, but I don't know if anyone dares to fight? ”

Jia Qi asked in disbelief: "How do you say that there is no risk?" ”

Zhou Nan glanced at Jia Qi and said disdainfully: "What the old monk does, one is not to kill people and set fires, and the other is not to go into battle to dance knives and guns, the old monk is just a kung fu on his lips, what risk can you say you can do to do it?" ”

Jia Qi said in a word, Jia Qi was also flexible, first, he did hear that the adult had something to ask for the monk, and second, there was no need for the young man in front of him to tease him, if he forced the Buddha statue on his body, he could take it away.

Jia Qi took out the pure gold eight-treasure rosette Buddha statue from his arms, looked at it a few times in distress, gritted his teeth, put it on the table, and said to Zhou Nan: "This Buddha statue is worth five hundred guan just for gold, and this gem, after the matter is completed, you have to give me an extra eight hundred guan." ”

Zhou Nan saw that Jia Qi agreed, and said in a low voice: "It's all yours, I don't want it." Lead the way before your head, and let us go. ”

Jia Qi straightened his monk's robe, lowered his eyebrows, and folded his hands, completely unable to see the obscene appearance of holding the Buddha statue under his armpit just now, walked in front with a solemn expression, and walked out with Zhou Nan.

When he met a monk along the way, Jia Qi bowed his head and bowed, not talking much, Zhou Nan pretended not to know anything, followed Jia Qi, and the two went all the way out of Jingjue Temple.

Coming out of the temple gate, the people who came with the cart had already dispersed. Zhou Nan looked around and said to Monk Jia: "No way, it seems that we can only go to Yizhou City." ”

Zhou Nan has been practicing in the mountains for more than a year, walking these dozens of miles of avenue is as easy as going to the neighbor's house, Zhou Nan turned his head to look at the Jia monk next to him, although he is fat and has short legs and feet, but he can't see the difficulty when he walks down with Zhou Nan, it seems that as he said, he is also used to running the rivers and lakes.

The two talked and laughed, and before they knew it, they came to the city of Yizhou again, and along the way, Zhou Nan had completely frightened this Jia monk. Zhou Nan's mind was full of strange things that Monk Jia didn't know, and Zhou Nan's general opinions on this era, not to mention that Monk Jia was just a man who ran around the rivers and lakes to eat, even if the ministers of Song and Liao listened to it today, they would be speechless in shock.

Monk Jia followed Zhou Nan all the way, and became more and more convinced that Zhou Nan had the ability to let him get some rewards, and his mind was full of his dream of making a fortune.
