Chapter 12: Conflict
"It's also the first time I've come here, and I haven't seen a red scarf, so you can ask the novice guard, they may know." Tuoba replied calmly.
The little maid looked back at her lady, and saw that her face was disappointed, but she didn't say anything, and turned around and said, "Thank you Lang Jun, the little maid is rude, Lang Jun is not strange." After saying that, he bowed
"It's okay, I didn't help much, I shouldn't be thanked." Tuoba returned the salute and turned away. I didn't dare to linger for a while, let alone go to Tuoba Ke, so I hurriedly went up to the third floor and took a few breaths.
Maybe I should really go and worship the Buddha sincerely, I played a heartbeat yesterday and today, and if I was debunked on the spot just now, I would be embarrassed and embarrassed. It's a stain for a lifetime. Thinking about what happened in the past two days, Tuoba Shen was about to doubt his life.
Considering that the girl was on the second floor, these three floors may not be safe, and she didn't care about seeing what was placed on the third floor of the pagoda, so she went straight to the top of the pagoda.
On the top of the tower are the relics of the great virtuous monks who have achieved Buddhism in the past, as well as some Buddhist scriptures and ritual instruments. There aren't many of these things, and the top of the tower is also the smallest floor in the whole building, so it is placed here to complement each other perfectly.
There are already some people here, or three or two, or alone, but no one opens the window to watch the view, listening to the bell through the wall to know that there is a strong wind outside, this is 300 feet high, if you open the window to blow up the furnishings in the tower, there will be cleaned up.
Of course, I was a little disappointed that I couldn't climb high and overlook Tuoba Shen, but now I don't care about this, anyway, there will always be a chance in the future. Tuoba Shen didn't plan to go down, the pair of master and servant may have been out of the tower, maybe they were going up, and now they might bump into each other head-on, he was not ready to see them again, so let's wait for Tuoba and Tuoba Ke to arrive, with the two of them as cover, he is also a little more confident.
Find a corner of a hidden point, take out the red scarf from his sleeve, he is not in the mood to read what is written now, he has the heart to find a random place on this seven-story tower to put it, and it has nothing to do with him when others find out in the future, and then he feels that after all, it is a piece of filial piety for his children, and it is too inappropriate to do so. It's better to wait for no one to send it back to Shakyamuni, even if it is guessed by the girl in the end, it's nothing, and we may not meet again in the future!
After making up your mind, fold the red scarf again, then put it in your arms, touch it, and make sure that it will not fall off even if you do a certain movement. Even if they are really guessed, can they still pick up their clothes and grab them? Tuoba Shen, who was relieved, no longer thought about it, and turned to look at the furnishings on the seventh floor, after all, there is no relics in the womb, it is not Li Tang today, and there are no Buddha bones in the Northern Wei Dynasty.
These utensils containing relics, there are sandalwood, glass, and black wood, the color of the glass box is monotonous, all of them are turquoise, but there are many wooden styles, but most people are interested in the relics of the glass box used. Although the glaze is not as good as glass, it is difficult to see the glaze in this year, and there are not many rich and noble people. There is a small ancestral house in the palace made of glazed tiles, just like that, it is not an artifact like glass, no matter how bright the color is, it is nothing.
When I was looking through a scroll introducing a great monk named Fawu, I suddenly heard a quarrel on the other side of the stairs, and the sound sounded very familiar, like a little fat man Tuoba Sui, Tuoba Ke closed the scroll, bypassed a few Buddha covers and the platform, and when he arrived near the stairs, he saw the little fat man arguing with two people in Xianbei clothes. There was also a fat girl next to her, holding a horsewhip in her hand.
The two young men looked older than Tuoba Sui and Tuoba Shen from the back, and they looked like they were thirteen or fourteen years old. These two older boys are arguing with the little fat man, the little fat man is invincible with his fists and four hands, although he is fatter than others, he only has one mouth, and his noisy face is red, but he doesn't dare to really do it.
It seems that he usually underestimates this fat boy, thinking that he is a master who bullies people regardless of the occasion, but now it seems that he has misunderstood, and he can bear it, but he does not show his identity but quarrels, which shows that he has a brain.
Tuoba Shen walked over and shouted, "Big brother, so you are here." ”
When Tuoba saw Tuoba Shen, his spirit was shocked, and he shouted: "Second brother, you came just in time." ”
When the two young men heard that the little fat man opposite was called Tuoba Shen's second brother, their faces suddenly darkened, and they said with an unkind face: "No matter how many people come today, you have to apologize before it matters." ”
What is the reason for this? I don't know how to say it, but I want to understand the cause and effect first.
Tuoba grabbed Tuoba Shen and said angrily: "These shafts, it's really hateful, I just told the truth, and I was so unrelenting, why, I still can't do it?" After speaking, he clenched his fists at the two young men.
The two young men saw that Tuoba was constantly unconvinced, and dared to demonstrate, and really wanted to rush up and use force, but they remembered that their father had repeatedly warned them that today was not as usual, and they were not allowed to make a slight mistake, so that they could endure it until now.
Tuoba Shen saluted the two young men and asked, "I don't know what misunderstanding the brother has with the two of you, please explain it in detail first, if the brother is wrong, I will apologize on my behalf." ”
Tuoba was annoyed, he didn't feel that he was wrong, and when he heard Tuoba Shen say something apologetic, he was about to complain.
The two young men on the opposite side saw that Tuoba Shen had a good attitude, and he was still listening to his words, so he finally calmed down, and when he heard Tuoba Shen asking them to describe the beginning and the end, the two brothers looked at each other, and stopped talking, only snorted angrily, and looked at Tuoba Shen with both eyes.
Tuoba saw that the other party was reluctant to speak, so he looked at Tuoba Sui, Tuoba Sui's face was pale, and said: "I just watched the statue of Venerable, these two vertical men are somehow going to do it when they come up." ”
The two young men saw that Tuoba still dared to lie in front of him, and they were furious: "Okay, good thief, I don't want you to live in a noble family, but you dare to do it, and your conduct is so inferior." "I didn't care about hiding it, and I told everything from beginning to end.
Tuoba Shen was also dumbfounded after hearing this, and his opinion of Tuoba Shen was refreshed, which was too interesting.
It turned out that the origin of the matter was the girl standing next to her. This sister's family is also living in Pingcheng, recently engaged by the father and ancestor of the family, probably because I have not seen the physique and character of the hired man, these days have been falling in the heart, today and my brother came to Yongning Temple, but also want to scatter the heart, I didn't expect to meet the engaged man, the man began to behave less naturally, the sister brother did a long time as a middleman, finally the two sides can talk, just chatted not long ago, suddenly heard a little fat man next to him sneered, thought it was laughing at them, this engaged man was originally because the girl was fat and a little knot, Hearing Tuoba Sui's sneering sound was like a cat that had been stepped on its tail, the sister-in-law brother was also furious, and stepped forward to ask Tuoba Sui, Tuoba Sui was repeatedly questioned, and he was also angry, where did he suffer this kind of anger, and under the anger, he committed the problem of talking but his brain: "Laugh and laugh, she is so fat, I laugh." He pointed to the girl and said. The girl is just a little fat, and it's not an imbalance in shape, after listening to Tuoba Sui's words, her eyes are also red, and she wants to do it with the whip in her hand.
Tuoba Shen still hasn't noticed the girl standing next to him who doesn't speak, after listening to the cause and effect, he couldn't help but glance at the girl standing next to him, the girl saw Tuoba Shen looking at him, raised the horsewhip in his hand, and glared at him viciously.
Of course, Tuoba Shen would not be afraid of a little girl's whip. Turning his head to look at Tuoba Sui, he really couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, this little fat man dared to say that others were fat, but he couldn't help but suppress this matter, if he made a big fuss and was known by the emperor, he didn't say anything about it, and it would be difficult to get out of the palace in the future.
"Today is my eldest brother's rudeness, don't blame you, and apologize to a few of the eldest brother in the next place" Tuoba Shen finished speaking and bowed with a straight body.
Tuoba Shen next to him was annoyed when he saw it, and he wanted to make trouble again, but Tuoba Shen hurriedly grabbed him: "If Father knows, my three brothers will not be able to come out in the future." Tuoba Shen was most afraid of the emperor now, so he had to be silent after listening to Tuoba Shen's words.
The two young men and the sister saw that Tuoba apologized cautiously, and they also knew the truth of not doing anything for themselves, if it wasn't for this little fat man going too far, they didn't want to make such a big fuss, and when they were about to say a few words and leave, the girl on the side looked at the direction of the stairs and said, "Is it the sister of the Zheng family?" ”
