Chapter Twenty-Seven: Hu Sanniang Discusses the Three Alliances Lu Zhishen Explores the Temple
That night was still resting in the village, the next morning, Li Zhong and Zhou Tong discussed, Li Zhong said: "Now the cottage is understaffed, and I see two skills, sooner or later, please sit on the master of the cottage, and we can wait for the shelter." Zhou Tong was not very convinced before, but when he saw the two skills yesterday, he also said: "What my brother said is very true, if there is no hard hand in the village, sooner or later the instructor army will encircle and suppress it." ”
So the two came to see Sanniang and Zhishen again, Lu Zhishen didn't wake up with a hangover, Sanniang got up early to practice, and was resting in the house, seeing that the two came, they taught the little minions to order a cup of tea, and taught the two to sit down and talk.
After the three of them sat down, Li Zhong said: "The officials are heroic, and the whole of Peach Blossom Mountain is respectful, and I implore my brother to sit as the master of this cottage, and the instructor's mansion will not dare to underestimate me sooner or later." After that, Li Zhong and Zhou Tong bowed down.
Sanniang helped her up and said: "The terrain of Peach Blossom Mountain is dangerous, and it is also a good place to go, but Master Lu and I have no plans to fall into the grass now." But seeing that your cottage is now in a withering population, I also have the heart to help. Have the two virtuous brothers ever heard Shaohua Mountain and Shijiazhuang? ”
Li Zhong said: "Naturally, I heard that the three leaders of Shaohuashan, Zhu Wu, Chen Da, and Yang Chun, LinkedIn, were very strong, and the officers and soldiers in the left vicinity did not dare to round up, and I heard that in the past year, they have protected the territory and the people, and for the Tianxing Dao, and the people on the rivers and lakes are like rain, and they are famous on the left and right." Shijiazhuang is also generally famous, with Shi Dalang sitting in the town, and Shaohua Mountain can call the wind and rain in Huazhou. ”
Sanniang said: "The three of them and Shi Dalang are all my brothers, if the two of you want to prosper the cottage, I can submit a letter to teach Shaohua Mountain, Shijiazhuang and Peach Blossom Mountain to form an alliance, and the three will prosper together, and they will prosper sooner or later." ”
Li Zhong and Zhou Tong were both overjoyed, and they wanted to invite the two of them to sit on the village, and the cottage was handed over, which was somewhat helpless, but now Sanniang proposed an alliance strategy, and the owner of the village is still them, and they rely on the two big backers of Shaohua Mountain and Shijiazhuang, which is naturally better.
Sanniang said: "At present, you lack manpower in the cottage, after the alliance, Shaohua Mountain will send elite soldiers and strong generals to come, one is to enrich the cottage to help you resist the official army, the second is to coach the pawns in the village, and the third can teach people to let Taohuashan also learn the general management of Shaohua Mountain, and the money and food are sufficient sooner or later." ”
Zhou Channel: "Previously, we also learned from Shaohua Mountain, governed the villages near the left, protected the territory and the people, and begged to enter the service, but I always felt that there was no law. ”
Hu Sanniang laughed secretly, Taohuashan also learned from Shaohuashan to know how to govern the people, but they robbed the house on the one hand, and begged for worship on the other. Mrs. Liu in Taohua Village at the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain is the person under the rule. But this group of people accepted and enshrined, but they did not protect the territory and the people, and robbed the people's daughters, how could it be successful? However, the two can think of imitating Shaohua Mountain, and they still understand the way to survive.
At that moment, Sanniang said: "Since it is impossible to learn the law, then let people teach it, and you must learn the law." After a pause, Sanniang said with a straight face: "The alliance of the three families is a matter of life and death, after the matter is completed, when the common respect order, do not betray it lightly, if any family dares to betray their promises, the other two will join forces to crusade against it!" ”
Li Zhong and Zhou Tong felt a pang in their hearts, and bowed down together: "If you have an alliance, you must obey the order, and you don't dare to disobey it." ”
At that moment, Sanniangjiao took pen and paper, repaired a book, and Li Zhong and Zhou Tongcha went to Shaohua Mountain and Shijiazhuang to submit a book, waiting for a reply without mentioning it.
After recuperating in the cottage for a few days, the famous Chengjing did not come back, Lu Zhishen also had to go to Tokyo by road, and Hu Sanniang did not wait for the echo of Shaohuashan, just taught Li Zhong and Zhou Tong to wait with peace of mind.
On this day, Hu Sanniang and Lu Zhishen cleaned up and stopped, Li Zhong and Zhou Tong presented a plate of gold and silver to make a coil, Hu Sanniang and Lu Zhishen still didn't want it, and after saying goodbye, the two went to Tokyo Road.
The two left Peach Blossom Mountain, let go of their footsteps, and talked about Wei Ming Chengjing along the way, Hu Sanniang also said that he had hurt Wei Ming Chengjing, and said that Xia people held grudges, Lu Zhishen listened and said: "Xia people are not false, but they must be willing to take risks and go deep into the Song Realm to find you, I think there is something else." Previously, you and the Sprinkle family looked at the treasure knife that was snatched, and thought that Na Xianu did not hesitate to risk his life to sneak into the Central Plains, most likely to pursue this knife, and the officials should be careful of this person in the future. ”
Sanniang nodded yes, and talked about guns and sticks, after a fight, Lu Zhishen admired Hu Sanniang's martial arts even more, talked about it all the way, and unconsciously walked from morning to afternoon, about fifty or sixty miles down, hungry in his stomach, and there was no lighter on the road.
Lu Zhishen said: "I got up early and only cared about being greedy, and after a day, I was hungry and hungry, but I went there?" Sanniang said: "I still have some bread here, and I have the right to satisfy my hunger." The two of them found a place to sit down, and when they were about to eat, they suddenly heard the sound of the bell in the distance, and Lu Zhishen got up and said happily: "Okay!" It's not a temple, it's a palace, the wind blows the sound of the bell in front of the eaves, and the officials, and we go there to run. ”
Hu Sanniang and Lu Zhishen heard the bell, so they followed the sound, walked through several hillsides, and saw a big pine forest and a mountain road. When I looked up, I saw a ruined temple, and the bell was ringing in the wind. When I looked at the mountain gate, there was an old vermilion plaque with four golden characters in it, all of which were faint, and it was written "the temple of the clay pot". Walk not forty or fifty steps, cross a stone bridge, and look at it again, an ancient temple, has an age. Entering the mountain gate, if you look closely, although it is a big brake, it is good to collapse. But see: the bells and drums are jumping and the stone platform is damaged, and the temple is destroyed and the dry well is deep. The mountain gate is full of green scabies and moss, and the pavilion is entangled with green moss.
Lu Zhishen was fast-paced, and he happily entered the temple, and then went to the guest house. I saw that the gate in front of the Keliao Gate was gone, and there was nothing around the wall.
Zhishen came out of the house, and when he saw the dust, Sanniang covered her nose and said, "Master Lu, is there anyone?" Zhishen said: "I haven't bumped into people, a huge temple, and I don't know how to fall into the land?" I'll explore later. ”
When Zhishen went straight to the abbot to look, he saw swallow dung all over the ground, and a lock on the door was locked, and the lock was full of cobwebs. Zhishen put the Zen staff on the ground and shouted, "In the past, the monks came to fast. "I called for a long time, but no one answered.
When I returned to the soup kitchen, the pot was gone, and the stove was collapsed. Zhishen unwrapped the package, put it in front of the prison messenger, took the Zen staff, and searched everywhere. I found a small room behind the kitchen and saw several old monks sitting on the ground, all with yellow faces and thin muscles.
Zhishen snorted and said, "You monks, it's so unreasonable!" Called by the sprinkler family, no one answered. The monk shook his hand and said, "Don't raise your voice." Zhishen said: "I am a monk in the past, and it is very beneficial to ask for a meal." The old monk said, "We haven't had food for three days, where are we begging for food to eat with you?" ”
Zhishen said: "I am a monk from Wutai Mountain, and the porridge is also indiscriminately invited to eat half a bowl of porridge." The old monk said: "You are a monk from where the living Buddha goes, we should be fasting you, and the monks in my temple are scattered, and there is not a grain of fasting food." The old monk waited for three days of hunger. Zhishen said: "Nonsense, this is such a big place, I don't believe that there is no fasting." ”
The old monk said: "I am here to go in a non-fine place. Just because he is a permanent resident of the ten directions, he was led by a wandering monk to come to the abbot here, and destroyed all the permanent residents. The two of them did everything and drove the monks out. I can't walk a few old people, so I have to live here, so I don't have anything to eat. Zhishen said: "Nonsense! Measure him as a monk and a Taoist, and do a lot of things, but don't go to the government to sue him? The old monk said: "Master, you don't know that the yamen here is far away, even the official army, and he can't be forbidden." This monk and Taoist man are so good, they are all murderers and arsonists, and now they are sheltering in a place behind the abbot. ”
Zhishen said: "What are these two calls doing? The old monk said: "The monk's surname is Cui, his law name is Daocheng, and he is nicknamed the Pig Iron Buddha; The Taoist surname is Qiu, ranking Xiao Yi, nicknamed Flying Yaksha. These two people are like monks, just thieves in the green forest, and they occupy the body of this monk. ”
Zhishen was asking, and suddenly smelled a burst of incense. Zhishen lifted the Zen stick, and when he stepped behind him to take a look, he saw an earthen stove, covered with a grass cover, and the air was steaming. When Zhishen lifted it up, he was cooking a pot of corn porridge. Zhishen scolded: "You old monks don't make sense! only said that he hadn't eaten for three days, and now he is cooking a pot of porridge, why did the monks lie? The old monks were found out of porridge by Zhishen, and they only cried bitterly, and snatched the dishes, bowls, ladles, and buckets.
Zhishen was hungry and helpless, and when he saw that he wanted to eat porridge, he didn't make sense, and the old monk said: "I didn't have anything to eat for three days, but I went there to copy these corns, and boiled some porridge to eat, and you ate ours again." ”
Zhishen heard this, so he didn't eat, but when he was hungry, he heard Sanniang's voice outside the house: "Master Lu, come out quickly, there is fragrant meat to eat." Lu Zhishen was overjoyed, and when he snatched out of the house, he saw Hu Sanniang hit a mastiff dog out of nowhere, dragged it in his hand, and stood in the courtyard looking at himself and laughing.
Lu Zhishen stepped forward and said happily: "Where did the officials call?" Hu Sanniang said: "Shicai turned around a big hall, and a wild mastiff came out, and bit me, and I killed it with a knife, and this beast wanted to eat me, so we ate it." Zhishen was overjoyed, recalling the pot of fragrant meat boiled by Wutai Mountain Hu Sanniang that day, and felt hungry in his stomach, and immediately said: "I'll go to the house to find a home." Sanniang said: "It's okay, it's just that the temple here, cooking meat here to eat, it's still not good, I'll go to the Shiqiao stream outside the temple to clean up this meat, and you come there to find me when you're young." ”
At the moment, Zhishen responded, after the two broke up, Zhishen turned back to the house and asked the old monk to ask for an iron pot, a group of monks only cared about eating porridge, the old monk pointed to the corner of the house, but saw that the two broken iron pots in the corner of the house were there, one was through the bottom, and the other was broken, Zhishen took the broken side pot and came out of the temple happily.
When I arrived at the stone bridge, I didn't see Sanniang by the stream, only the mastiff corpse was there, and I suddenly heard the sound of shouting and fighting at the end of the forest, Lu Zhishen took the Zen staff and went straight to the past to see, only to see Hu Sanniang's double knives flying up and down, and a monk was fighting tightly.
