ββDividing Lineββ
Leaving the Dongping Land Boundary, I stayed overnight along the official road Xiaoxing, because there were more than 40 forbidden soldiers accompanying him, but I didn't meet any strongmen who didn't open their eyes.
On this day, I finally arrived in Bianliang, Tokyo, under the guidance of Li Cunzhong, I entered from the Wansheng Gate in the north, and found a downtown through the streets and alleys.
Far away, Wu Kai saw that the two high walls in front of him were facing outward, surrounded by a golden and brilliant mountain gate, and the plaque in the middle was impressively written with several black and gold characters on the black background.
"Father-in-law Li."
Unexpectedly, Li Cunzhong led the person directly to the temple, Wu Kai hugged his fist at him on the horse, and said with some embarrassment: "Why don't you wait for me to place the female dependents in the inn first, and then come here to place an order?" β
Although I have long heard that there are many flower monks in this Great Xiangguo Temple, I always feel a little inappropriate when I bring a woman to the door.
Li Cunzhong smiled, didn't answer, urged the horse to take a few steps forward, pointed to the courtyard wall of the Great Xiangguo Temple, and motioned Wu Kai to take a closer look.
Wu Kai also hurried a few steps, and looked at the wall, only to see that it was covered with various pieces of paper, and the most conspicuous ones were all small advertisements for 'renting concubines'.
"Concubines can also be rented?!"
"Why can't you rent it?" Li Cunzhong said with a natural face: "Jingguanqing is suffering, I don't know when I will have to be transferred, one is that I can't afford to marry, and the other is inconvenient to take away, renting a room for a concubine to serve for a few years, which is both economical and affordable, and will not annoy the Hedong lion in the family, isn't it the best of all three worlds?" β
As he spoke, he glanced back at the carriage behind him, blinked narrowly, and said with a smile: "Great monk, although you have brought a beautiful concubine with you, you might as well find some fresh fun - at the feet of this son of heaven, even the flavor of women is different from that of the side." β
Tut~
An old eunuch with no eggs even brought up the flavor of a woman!
Especially with the dirty expression on his face, it looks like a pimp...... Well, it seems that eunuchs already have this function, and the eunuchs who can pimp the emperor are qualified good eunuchs!
Slandering in his heart, Wu Kai also smiled with a knowing smile on his face: "Since Gonggong Li has said so, the poor monk will definitely have a good understanding of it another day." β
"The great monk is really bold and tight!"
The two talked and laughed, rode the horse to the gate of the Great Xiangguo Temple, and saw that the tourists inside were weaving, and the meridian was not much cleaner than the downtown outside, but there were a few small monks at the door staring, and those who did business were not allowed to go in and shout and sell.
Li Cunzhong changed into a public uniform before entering the city, so he took Wu Kai into the mountain gate, and soon a monk greeted him, and said: "Amitabha, the little monk is clear, I don't know if the general is here for business or ......."
Hearing this monk say this, Wu Kai realized that Li Cunzhong was not the service of a eunuch, but the official uniform of a military general - but this is also normal, didn't that Tong Guan become a captain? At Li Cunzhong's age, it is not surprising that he has the title of general.
"Naturally, it's business."
Li Cunzhong raised his chin and commanded with a little domineering: "This Wukong master is personally invited back from Shandong by the official family, and he will enter the palace in a few days. β
When Mingxin heard this, he looked at Wu Kai curiously, who didn't know that the current emperor respected the Tao and suppressed the Buddha, and called himself the Emperor of Daojun, in the past, he only heard that he invited many Taoist chiefs from the three mountains and five mountains, but he had never heard of it, and he was also interested in monks.
It's just that this Wukong master doesn't see anything strange except for his fierce appearance.
Mingxin didn't dare to look at it more, and hurriedly saluted Wu Kai and said: "I don't know if the master has arrived, I have missed the distance, please atone for my sins." β
Wu Kai was about to return the salute, but Fahai flashed next to him, and scolded with a domineering look: "Hugh wants to rap here, why don't you take my master to the guest room to rest - it is to confess, and it will not be your turn to be a little monk." β
"Yes, yes, what Senior Brother said."
Seeing that this Fahai treasure was solemn, but it was Wu Kai's apprentice, Na Mingxin did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly looked for a little monk to invite the 'Zhike' to come, and then respectfully brought Wu Kai and others to the courtyard where the monk was located.
Along the way, I just introduced some allusions in the temple, but I turned a blind eye to Hu Sanniang and Gu Sister-in-law - it seems that it really deserves to be the 'romance' of the common word!
When I arrived at the so-called upper room, it was a small courtyard house, not to mention all the furnishings, and there was a separate small stove - I don't know if it was for the lay people who liked meat, or for the convenience of monks who did not like to fast.
Seeing that Wu Kai was very satisfied with this room, Xie Zhen Jiebao, Fahai Huineng, Shi Qian and others worked together to carry the luggage into the house.
Na Mingxin took a few incense sticks and inserted them in the hall and the wing room.
Seeing that he had cleaned up, Li Cunzhong bowed his hand to Wu Kai and said: "Great monk, the Sprinkle family has to go back to hand over the decree, but it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, you had better not go out these days, if there is anything, send someone to Donghua Gate with this famous post, let people say goodbye." β
As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized gilded name card from his sleeve and sent it to Wu Kai with both hands.
Wu Kai took it and took a look, but saw that it was written on his head, 'Li Cunzhong, the deputy commander of the palace in front of the palace', but he didn't know whether this official position was high or low, and he didn't know what this commander was for, so he had to respond vaguely first and sent Li Cunzhong out of the mountain gate.
When he turned back to the courtyard, he saw a few more monks, standing in the courtyard and talking to Fahai.
"Master."
Seeing Wu Kai coming back from outside, Fahai hurriedly went up and pointed to the monks led by him and introduced them one by one: "This is the Zen Master of the Consciousness of the Mind in the temple, and this is the Zen Master of Liao Yuan Jueqing - two Zen masters, this is the abbot of Faming Temple, Wukong Zen Master." β
Wu Kai had done some homework before, so he knew that this Zhike and Liao Yuan were both one of the eight deacons in the temple, and they were in charge of welcoming guests and wandering monks respectively, and they were placing orders here, and they were under the jurisdiction of the two of them.
Therefore, he hurriedly said with the eleventh salute: "Amitabha, two senior brothers, the poor monk is polite. β
The two monks hurriedly returned the salute, and the monk Jueqing was a little frizzy, and after hurriedly returning the salute, he couldn't wait to ask: "I just heard that your prestige, senior brother, has reached the heavens, and the official family personally ordered to summon you, but I don't know if this matter is true?!" β
His eagerness made Wu Kai a little puzzled, Daxiangguo Temple is a royal temple, it is said that you can see the emperor every three or five times, can you use such a fuss?
