Chapter Forty-Eight: Drawing Wages from the Bottom of the Cauldron (1)

Li Shan walked back with Master Guangwu, but saw Zhang Yanzhao rushing towards him in a panic, and saw Li Shan hurriedly running over and said, "Brother Shan, the old lady and Miss Jinxi were robbed by some masked people. ”

"What, tell me clearly, what's going on?" This news shocked Li Shan, he had been worried about this problem since he was chased and killed by Li Chengwei's killers, he tried his best to establish the Heaven and Earth Society, and kept Master Guangwu at home, all to protect his family, but he didn't expect it to be a hundred secrets. He urgently needs to know now, who did it, Li Chengwei, Xue Ji, or someone else?

Zhang Yanzhao took a breath, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Li Shandao: "This is the letter left by those masked people. Li Shan took it and looked at it, and it read: Li Shan personally enlightened. When I opened the envelope, I saw that the white letter paper read: Li Gongzi did not give face to the slave family so much, and the slave family was angry. But I'll give my son another chance, tomorrow at noon, let's see you at Yuelai Restaurant. There was also a bright red lip print in the lower right corner of the letter, Li Shan immediately tore the letter to shreds, and said angrily: "Xue Ji, you dare to touch my family, do you really dare to kill you?" ”

When I returned to Yuelai Restaurant, the restaurant had already turned off the lights and closed the door. Li Shan's face was gloomy, and he habitually dragged his chin back and forth with one hand. Zhang Yanzhao knew that this was Li Shan thinking, so he didn't dare to disturb him, so he could only wait quietly on the side. After a while, Li Shan whispered to Zhang Yanzhao: "You go to Zhuo Cheng now, at noon tomorrow at the latest, I want to know where Xue Ji lives and how many people are around." Zhang Yanzhao didn't dare to delay and hurried to go.

When I got home, I saw that the sister-in-law of the Zhao family was bandaging the wounds of Zhao Long and Zhao Hu. When Zhao Long saw Li Shan coming back, he quickly got up and said, "Li Shan, aunt and Miss Jinxi......" Li Shan waved his hand and said: "I already know, you are also injured, hurry up and bandage the wounds and rest early." I want to be alone. Zhao Long wanted to speak again and again, but finally sighed and said: "Li Shan, as long as you use the place of our two brothers, you can just say it." ”

When I returned to my bedroom, I looked at the deserted room, with neatly placed tea sets and folded quilts. Li Shan closed his eyes, as if Jinxi was right in front of him, and said with a smile: "Xianggong, come and catch Jinxi." Caught the one with a reward. Li Shan shook his head, driving away the chaotic thoughts. He never realized that before he knew it, Su Jinxi had such an important meaning in his life, this well-behaved and lovely girl gave Li Shan all her tenderness and trust, and even worship. There is also a mother, although she is not Li Shan's mother in the real sense, but her laughter and anger still appear involuntarily in Li Shan's mind, and her earnest teachings make Li Shan, who is reincarnated, feel the preciousness of family affection.

At this moment, Li Shan was really in chaos. He had already thought of countless feasible plans in his mind, but none of them were foolproof, he had no way to guarantee the safety of his mother and Jinxi, and if he caused the slightest damage to his mother or Jinxi because of his miscalculation, he would be to blame. Li Shan knew that what Xue Ji wanted was nothing more than the secret recipe for asking Xiange to cook, for Li Shan, the value of those secret recipes could not be compared with the safety of his mother and Jinxi, if he had to exchange the secret recipe, Li Shan's eyelids would not blink, but this was not a way. Li Shan couldn't succumb to such a threat so easily, which would only make their future safety even more worrisome. He needed to come up with a more workable solution.

The night passed, Li Shan did not sleep, his eyes were a little bloodshot, but at this time he was more calm and calm. After a night of thinking, Li Shan finally figured out the key to the matter, no matter what, the safety of his mother and Jinxi is the most important. He also needs the help of the Light Enlightenment Master.

Master Guangwu looked at Li Shan, shook his head and said: "The poor monk really can't do this, he was forced to help Li Shizhu hurt people before, and now he wants the poor monk to do such a thing, this is a taboo for the Buddhist family, and it is difficult for the poor monk to obey his fate." Li Shan said earnestly: "Master Guangwu, now that my mother and wife have been arrested, how can everyone in the Master Buddhism Sect see death without saving them with compassion?" ”

Guangwu said: "Then you can't hurt people innocently, Master Li Shizhu can report to the official, I believe that the government will definitely be able to find the old lady and Miss Jinxi." Li Shan had a headache, why was it so hard to reason with this monk, Li Shan was angry and had the urge to beat someone, given that he really couldn't beat the bald head in front of him, he could only endure it first. Li Shanqiang put on a smiling face and said, "Master Guangwu, I really beg you." If you help me this time, I can always read a few scriptures a day in the future. ”

Guangwu still looked like he was not in a hurry, and said: "If the donor is sincere to the Buddha, he will naturally recite the Buddhist scriptures, and this kind of imposition has no effect." ”

Li Shan is really angry, give you some color and you will open a dyeing workshop. Let you pretend to be forced, Li Shan rolled up his sleeves, of course, he didn't want to fight, just to increase his momentum, and said righteously: "Hmph, sincerely to the Buddha, you can still say such things because of the master's loss." The master never leaves the Buddha, but he doesn't know what the Buddha is in the master's heart? Although my mother and you have never known each other in her life, can she be regarded as a fellow practitioner of the same path who has been discussing Buddhism with the master every day for the past few days? I asked myself, I have never treated the master badly, the master has always been polite when he came to my house, although I dare not say that he is gracious, but at least he is polite. Jinxi is such a good girl, but she is kind-hearted but suffers from this unwarranted disaster. And all this is just a passing cloud in the eyes of the master? The Buddha that the master desires in his heart is inevitably too unkind. I remember what Master Huineng said, seeing nature to become a Buddha, is there not a trace of compassion and compassion in the master's heart? Then I am not the same person as the master, so I took my leave. With that, he shook his hand and left.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhuo Cheng finally rushed to Li Shan's house, and gasped for breath and said, "Big brother, I have found Xue Ji's residence." Li Shan poured him a cup of tea and said, "You sit down first, don't panic, and speak slowly and clearly." To be more specific, are there any clues about my mother and Jinxi? Zhuo Cheng said apologetically: "I didn't find my aunt and Miss Jinxi, Xue Ji lives in a house not far from Yuelai Restaurant, which should be Song Ren's home." Our people didn't dare to go in, so I don't know if my aunt and Miss Jinxi were also inside. ”

Li Shan nodded and said, "I guess Xue Ji won't be stupid enough to hide her mother and Jinxi where she lives, but it's okay, just find Xue Ji." It's just that there is still a very critical problem now, Master Guangwu is unwilling to help, and we are missing a capable helper, I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed. Zhuo Cheng, you find a few brothers with the best skills, hurry up and mobilize them, I have important arrangements. Zhang Yanzhao said: "Brother Shan, tell us what plan you have, we will definitely rescue Aunt and Miss Jinxi." Li Shan leaned down and pulled Zhuo Cheng and Zhang Yanzhao down, quietly explained the plan, and then said: "Planning is in the people, and the success is in the sky, let's do our best, it's a big deal that I will give her the secret recipe." ”

Seeing that noon was approaching, Li Shan said: "Yanzhao, you go with me, Zhuo Cheng, the rest is up to you." Zhuo Cheng nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely bring people to you." The three of them were about to go out, when they saw Master Guangwu coming over and said, "Amitabha, the poor monk has practiced the Dharma for half his life, and today he doesn't want to fall into a trap. My Buddha is compassionate and must also subdue demons and eliminate demons, so that I can have a clear conscience. The poor monk was willing to help Master Li. ”

Li Shan smiled slightly and said, "Thank you Master Guangwu, I am grateful." Guangwu said: "Don't be polite, the poor monk should thank Li Shizhu for waking up the poor monk in time." It's a good thing to become a Buddha when you see nature, and the poor monk is really ashamed. Li Shan said: "With the help of the master, I have the bottom of my heart." This time it's just a fool's errand. ”
