Chapter 67: Still Here
[Change the cover, hahahaha]
Jianye's marina welcomed two strange guests this morning. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
A monk with a face like fat jade and a peerless elegance with a cowering young man actually took a flat boat from the Shangjiang River to build a business. The water of the Shang River is huge, and ordinary fishing boats will capsize in the waves if they are not careful, not to mention a small boat that looks unstable on its feet.
After they came ashore, they did not stop, and simply abandoned the boat. They didn't seem to have a destination, and the monk looked around and didn't know what he was looking at.
"Great, master, I, can I leave?" The young man whispered, "I think I'm almost fine......
"If you leave, you won't be able to get rid of the demon seed on your body." The monk said leisurely.
"But Brother Ni and Zhongzi are all excepted," the young man was anxious, "why is mine so slow?" β
"Because your body is a little miraculous, it takes some effort to get rid of the demon seed. Along the way, the things that the boss asked you to do were all to hone you and get rid of the demon seed. "The monk's footsteps do not stop, but the voice always reaches the ears of the young man with the wind.
The young man named Shenshang was very unconvinced, "I close my eyes and think about the Buddha for an hour every day to hone me? β
"Yes."
"Reciting the "Guanzi Liuli Sutra" ten times a day is also to hone me?"
"Yes."
"Is it also a test to dig up a corpse buried on a river beach?"
"Yes...... It's my private business. The monk said with a righteous face.
"Then why did you get me to dig it?"
"Dirty."
The merchant has lost his temper.
As he spoke, the monk seemed to have found his target, and walked up to a pot-bellied merchant in five steps and two steps, "Amitabha, can the layman stay?" β
In the face of this brilliant monk, no one can ignore him, not even this businessman who does not believe in Buddhism or mercenary, and the monk exudes a cordial and desirable smell, and the stingy businessman suddenly became polite, "Uh...... I wonder what happened to the master? β
"Excuse me," the monk pointed to the ship next to him, where many sailors were carrying supplies, as if they were about to set sail, "Is this ship owned by you?" β
"No, I can only be regarded as the owner of the ship," the merchant shook his head and nodded again, "This is the ship of the Yao family in Shuzhou, which has been sailing along the Shang River, and will stay for a day in every city on the way, and will soon set sail for Langya." β
The implication is that I don't have that much time to chat with you.
The monk nodded, he didn't seem to care much about this question, "The poor monk wants to ask...... Did anything happen to this ship during the construction process? β
The monk's question was vague, but the merchant immediately replied very specifically, "Yes!" "Two guys were fighting on the boat, and they were fightingβthe sides of the ship were broken quite a lot, and that's a lot of moneyβand then the two jumped into the river, and the remaining half of the fare hadn't been paid!" β
The monk's expression did not change much, and he asked again, "What do those two look like?" β
The merchant scratched his head, suddenly turned his head and shouted to an armor-piercing guard, "Ah Liu, come here!" β
The guard named Ah Liu immediately walked over with a fart, "What's the matter with the boss?" β
"This master wants to know what the troublemaker looked like that day?" Looking at Ah Liu's confused appearance, the merchant added, "The two who beat Zhang Chen to half death." β
"Oh, the two people who almost killed Captain Zhang," Ah Liu suddenly realized, turned his head to the monk and said, "Master, let me tell you, those two people, tsk, tsk, so powerful, one of them is a drunkard, six feet tall, strong and scary, with a big beard, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, five big and three thick, just with a pair of iron fists to penetrate the deck!" β
The merchant looked ugly, "You mean the deck material is not good." β
"Ah, no, boss......"
The guards and merchants didn't notice that when they described the appearance of the drunkard, the cowering young man's face turned blue, as if he remembered something.
The monk asked, "What about the other one?" β
"The other person, who looks like a scholar, is holding a long knife with a straw rope, and looks like a student who has traveled to study, but his kung fu is very powerful, and he crackles with the drunkard, flying sand and stones, and dark clouds cover the sun......" Seeing Ah Liuyue more and more outrageous, the merchant slapped him on the head, "Hurry up and go back to work!" β
"Oh...... The scholar's last knife almost beheaded the whole drinker, tsk, that knife was so beautiful, I was stupid to look at it from the sidelines. Then the two of them jumped into the river one after another. That's right! Another guest took the opportunity to snatch the scholar's knife. Ah Liu's face gloated, "That scholar must be distressed to death." β
"That guy didn't pay the other half of the fare!" The merchant said viciously.
Next, the monk asked if there were any other strange things, and they couldn't answer anything. After the monk thanked him, he took the merchant boy into the Jianye Mansion.
After walking for a while, the merchant asked, "Master, that wine man, is it me...... The body I dug up? β
Thinking of the corpse bitten by the moths and ants, the merchant also had a cold face.
"Probably." The monk nodded.
Seeing the monk walking like a fly, the merchant hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Master, where are we going?" β
"Let's go to the temple of Jianye Mansion to place an order first." Saying that, the monk stopped and looked at the counselor for a while, "Lao Gao should be able to bring one more person to live in the temple......
"You want to stay!?" Sanshang was taken aback, "Aren't you going to get rid of the demon seed in my body?" What are the benefits of staying? β
"Oh, it's also my private business."
Samshang's eyes rolled a few times, "Are you looking for the scholar who killed the drunkard?" Master, do you have a grudge against him? β
"I have no enmity with him," the monk shook his head first, then again, "probably not looking for him." β
"Then master, what are you doing in Jianye?" The merchant couldn't understand, but he patted the thin chest with only bones left, and looked like a righteous child, "Tell me who you are looking for, what do you look like, men and women, tall, short, fat, thin, how old are they, and whether they have birthmarks...... Master, you save my life, then I'll help you find someone together! β
"I don't know if the person I'm looking for is a man or a woman, or what he looks like." The monk spoke very casually, and falling into the ears of the merchant was a stumble.
"Boss, are you looking for someone? You're looking for a needle. Of course, Shenshang would not say this, although he was a little dumb and a little second, but he knew how to respect this monk who was good to him and saved his life, "Master, how to find it?" β
"I can feel it," the monk looked at Jianye in the early morning sun, narrowing his eyes slightly, his bald head shining slightly.
"The benefactor is still here."
