Chapter 46: Understood

"Why do you want to be like that. Seriously, I was half scared to death when I saw you.'" "Whoever told you to say anything about the eighteen layers of hell, I thought of pretending to be a ghost. Otherwise, even if we could fight two of each, and each of the two families would fight five, and there would be three left, enough to beat us into meatloaf.'"

"Don't bully me into being a bhikshu, I won't be able to do arithmetic, it should be four, not five." "You still don't believe that you don't know how to do arithmetic, haven't you heard that there are many people and there is great power? Naturally, two people can fight five together."

"Do you really have magical skills that make you invulnerable? I think those fire thieves are scared to death. Tell me the secret of your magic secrets, and I promise not to leak it." "You promise it won't leak?" "I promise, the Buddha proves it." Goku raised his hand and swore.

"Well, I believe you." "Really." "Of course, I'm sure you'll keep it a secret......" Li Chen snickered, "I also swore that I would keep it a secret." , Goku was deflated...『That... Show me another demonstration someday, okay?" "It depends on the mood."

While the two were talking, the maid came out and asked the two righteous men to meet his master. The two are currently in a large family, greeting guests to stay in the hall. Even if it is not very large, but those small households will not have such a pattern.

While walking, Li Chen was planning how to speak. How do you show that you have gone through nine deaths and a lifetime, and you have gone through all kinds of dangers to save people. Now that people are back, isn't it time to be a little thankful? In other words, the ransom is still hidden by himself, depending on the sincerity of the other party. If you are a little sincere, you will give it back to them when the time comes.

Some people may think it's strange, but if you want to return it, you can just bring it back with you. But he didn't know anything about it at first. I was also worried that I would take the gold and meet the thieves who came back to their senses. Seeing him holding gold in his hand, I am afraid that it will be revealed that he is a human at all.

The gold is not in his hand, and if he encounters it a second time, he can still pretend to be a ghost. But if the gold is in the hand, people don't think, what kind of gold do the monsters want? At that time, don't say that if you can't keep gold, you will lose your life. Saying that he could hit two or two, that was what he joked with Goku.

At best, it sounds like this, but in fact, Li Chen knows that he doesn't mean that black eats black. Before you know the situation, you hide the gold first, on the one hand, it is safe, and on the other hand, you plan to swallow the gold afterwards.

Now that he understands the situation, he thinks that if the other party is sincere enough, he will go back tomorrow and pretend to find out the gold. And then give it back to the family. If the other party has no sincerity at all, then it will be regarded as the other party's thank you money. Of course, Li Chen will not issue receipts to others.

Unlike Li Chen, who had a lot of ideas in his heart, Wukong only thought about whether the family believed in Buddhism. If they don't believe it, how can they know that all this is completely the will of the Buddha, so that they can just save the child.

(Li Chen: I protest, don't describe me as a philistine, believe in Buddhism, don't believe in Buddhism, it's not bad at sesame oil money, believe in Buddha have to donate sesame oil money, don't believe in Buddha to donate to others.) Wukong: At least we're more technical. One is a hammer deal, and we fight the idea of green water for a long time. )

It's just that all plans have stopped the moment the two of them step into the hall. The two of them froze there, and in the hall, the man who was the arhat bed, and the hostess who was holding the child, were also frozen.

"Brother Wuming?" The first thing to break the silence was Goku, "Why are you here?" , Steady to do the hall of Wukong, expressionless, no reaction, after a while before answering, "Poor Dao and this master acquaintance, I heard that the master of this family child was captured by the fire thief, I came to comfort me."

"But you, how could you just send the child back?" , After speaking, Wuming was much more articulate and asked rhetorically.

"Oh, I see." , Wukong breathed a sigh of relief, "I had a whim today and planned to go out on a tour, and as a result..." , Wukong told what had happened, but he didn't tell Li Chen about pretending to be a ghost, but Li Chen saved them.

"I see." , Wuming smiled happily on the surface, but in his heart he could scold the eighteenth generation of ancestors of that maid, if he had said that there were bhikkhus earlier, he would have hid in the inner room, and he would not have made such an embarrassing situation now.

"Thirteen Lang, I see that it is getting late, and the people are sent back, so let's go." After saying two words, Wukong pulled Li Chen, who was speechless, and left. Seeing the two leave without saying a word, Wukong's face changed from serious and stiff to iron-blue.

Li Chen followed Wukong away without saying a word, he really didn't say a word, and Wukong also said a few words. The moment Li Chen saw Wuming, he thought of that back, and it would be so familiar. Now that everything is clear, he probably knows why Gomei wants to frame him.

Eighty percent is this moth, broke the vows to marry a wife and have children, in order to support the family, he asked his wife to come forward like the temple to confront him. Changshou Temple is not like those famous mountains and ancient temples, seriously calculated, the temple has been built for about a few decades, and it has only been more than ten years since it began.

In order to take care of the reputation, there is no too much pressure to borrow money to get the believers how to repay the money, and even if the amount is not large, some of them have not even taken the mortgage, as long as it is a good faith in the town and has set up an IOU, they can come to the challenge. That's probably it, someone took advantage of it.

That's why Li Chen was framed. Blocking people's money is like killing parents, these moths, of course, can't wait to drive Li Chen away. Who called Li Chen didn't know how to lift, and he always proposed to collect debts like the abbot, and he had to strictly control the loans.

Was it really a loophole? No matter how deep it is, Li Chen didn't dare to think about it. So he just didn't say a word. I gave myself an explanation in my heart, this time I framed myself for a deficit, what about next time? Looking for someone to kill yourself? Is his predecessor implicated, and even his predecessor is still the abbot's senior brother, is the abbot innocent?

Now, there is no point in pursuing these things, anyway, he just settles down a little. This is the reason why Li Chen didn't say a word, and Wukong, pulling Li Chen away, purely to cover up his ugliness.

Like Wuming, who doesn't keep the precepts, he is obviously a monk, but he even has a wife and children, and he has seen a lot of such situations. I've never seen it and I've heard a lot. He didn't know about Li Chen's condition, and thought that Li Chen was shocked.

Wukong knew that Wuming had approached Li Chen several times, thinking that they had a good relationship, but when he saw a monk who was familiar with Taoism on weekdays, he turned out to be a monk who broke the vows. He was worried that Li Chen would expose this matter to his face, and if he made a big fuss, he would lose the face of Changshou Temple.

He didn't know how many times Wuming had approached Li Chen, and the side knock was to dispel Li Chen's advice on debt collection, on the one hand, he wanted to find out how much Li Chen knew. Li Chen wasn't shocked by this, he didn't think that these monks had any very high virtue at all, so he wouldn't be shocked.

The two of them walked like this, one after the other, without saying a word. Wukong walked ahead, waiting for Li Chen to speak. Li Chen followed, but he didn't speak.

Li Chen didn't know what Wukong was thinking, but he also knew that in a scandal like this, it was not good for him as an outsider to interfere much, anyway, now that he knows the situation, just don't talk too much in the future, anyway, it's not his money that he loses. And those shortfalls..., he has now made up his mind that the money will not be repaid, so he will use the gold to make up for the shortfall.

Suddenly, Li Chen stopped, Wukong also stopped, thinking that Li Chen was going to say about the incident just now, he was happy in his heart, he had already calculated how to persuade Li Chen to value peace, Wuming had this matter, and the temple would definitely deal with it. But keep a low profile, don't make a fuss, so that the temple will lose face, and the income from incense will be reduced a lot, which is not good for everyone.

"It suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't received any gratuity, as if I had lost money." As soon as Li Chen spoke, Wukong's feet slipped and he almost fell, "You... You..., you really want a reward. It's all in a temple, so it's too cheesy for you to ask for a reward." , Wukong trembled, pointed at Li Chen with one hand, and didn't know what to say.

Not only is it the simplicity of the ancients, if this kind of thing happens in modern times, even if Li Chen wants an honorarium, he will not be as clear as now, mainly because he has a meat ticket to get his family, so he should also express his heart.

However, Li Chen had already hated Wuming, how could he be polite to him. Well? Didn't he secretly resist the ransom? Still wanted, too greedy?

Li Chen didn't count it like this, he thought that his loss was also a loss for Wuming. Even if he is not the mastermind, it has something to do with him. The ransom is worth it, he has asked Wukong about it, and he has to estimate that he should make up the shortfall.

In the Tang Dynasty, if it was a large amount of money transactions, before there was no flying money, it was first exchanged for gold and silver. If Li Chen wants to convert the gold into copper coins, he can go to a gold and silverware shop in Cangfang Town, where he can exchange the gold pairs for copper coins.

As for the exchange ratio, one tael of gold can be exchanged for about six yuan. Those golds, Li Chen estimated that there were about more than 20 taels according to his experience as a tent room during this period of time. It can be exchanged for more than 100 guan, and the deficit can almost be made up.

Make up for the shortfall, that's my luck, you do a lot of bad things, and you fall down. But if I save your son, won't you give me some thanks? If you don't frame me, I'll take some of that money as a reward, and I'll pay you back the rest.

Right now... Sorry, that's what you pay for your mistakes. As for the remuneration for saving people, let's calculate it separately.

"It's all in the same temple, don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, people have just been ransomed, you just go to the door like this..." Wukong shook his head and patted his bald head again.

"What if they are ransomed, they are not saved. Besides, I almost ran away today. If you need more money, you can make up for the shortfall.'" "You can't ask for one or two hundred as much as you want." "Anyway, how much is it. If it's not enough, I can use it as a way to pay for the journey.'"

For Li Chen's insistence, Wukong couldn't come up with any good way to convince him, after all, he was the one who really saved people, and speaking of which, he had to thank Li Chen for saving his life. Although he attributed all this to the fact that my Buddha had come to obtain the Dharma, there was still nothing he could do to use this method to ignore his conscience and deny the grace of saving his life.
