Chapter 423: Innocence (3)
Cai Tang immediately stepped forward, stood in front of Hagi Niang, protected her, and shouted: "Old bald donkey, you are just relying on the strength of the crowd, do you dare to fight alone with me?" ”
The Great Elder couldn't help but smile, and said lightly: "We are not a martial arts competition, what do we pay attention to fighting alone, you guys, don't hurry up and take them down!" ”
The monks no longer hesitated, and immediately stepped forward to make a move, but they were kicked away by Caitang a few times, but after all, there were many of them, even if Caitang had great ability, he couldn't beat so many people, and he would be tired to death.
At this time, a few local villagers passing by surrounded them curiously, and the great elder was not frightened, but said to everyone: "It's not a big deal, it's just a few thieves who stole the Buddha treasures in the temple, so I just asked them to go back and talk, and you just dispersed." ”
This great elder seems to be very famous in the local area, and everyone immediately believed it when they heard his words, and they all looked at Haginiang and the slaves with disdain, and they talked about it one after another, saying that these people seemed to be brightly dressed, who knew that they dared to steal the Buddha treasure, they really didn't know self-love, and they really deserved to be punished by God.
The slave couldn't help but be furious, even if the great elder was unreasonable, he even fought backwards at this time, reversing black and white, but this place was the land of the great elder, how could the ignorant villagers distinguish who was right and who was wrong.
His mind was racing, and he walked to Haginiang's side and whispered, "Give me that jade." ”
Although Hagi Niang didn't know why, she trusted him very much, and immediately took off the soul jade and handed it to the slave, asking, "What can you do?" ”
Jinu smiled slightly, took the jade, held it high, and said to everyone: "This is not a Buddha treasure, but an ordinary jade, this great elder insisted that it is the treasure in their temple, and we will let the Buddha evaluate whose treasure it is." ”
Everyone has gathered around at this time, the original people who criticized them all looked at the bright jade in the hands of the slave, and talked curiously, everyone had never seen such a jade before, and heard that he said that let the Buddha to evaluate, they all felt very novel, and they came over, and someone asked: "How to let the Buddha evaluate?" ”
Jinu smiled calmly: "I just hold this jade, count three times, if this jade is accepted by the Buddha, then it is the treasure of your temple, we will no longer pursue it, this is to leave, if it is not collected by the Buddha, then it is our treasure, you can no longer stop us." ”
The Great Elder couldn't help laughing, and all the monks also coaxed: "How can a good jade disappear out of thin air?!" It's absolutely impossible, aren't you dreaming? ”
Seeing that there were more and more people around, Jinu was relieved, and continued: "Then since you don't agree, then it's the other way around, I still hold this jade like this, the same is three times, if this jade is collected by the Buddha, then it means that it is our treasure, the great elder, you can no longer chase us, and if it is not collected by the Buddha, then it is the treasure of your Qiyue Temple, we will leave and no longer pursue this matter." ”
Only then did the great elder understand what he meant, but he didn't think about what method he was going to use to do this, and he was in a hurry, and ordered the powerful monk around him, and the man immediately shouted: "You splash skin, if you use a trick to collect the stone, or hide it on your body, and hand it to your comrades, pretending that it was done by the Buddha, wouldn't that be a trick on us?" ”
Jinu smiled: "I'll stand on the high platform in the middle, there is no one around, if the jade is really accepted by the Buddha, I will let you search your body after I come down, how can you cheat?" ”
The Great Elder was full of confidence when he heard him, and he always felt that something was wrong, but at this time, the crowd was full of enthusiasm, and they all wanted to see the "miracle" and see the Buddha take away the stone, even if it was him, he couldn't ignore the will of the people, so he could only nod slightly and sign in agreement.
The slave was also a little uneasy in his heart, and what he relied on was just his own luck.
Hagi seemed to understand his thoughts, but she didn't understand how he was going to do all this.
In fact, what the slave is holding is just the worst plan, even if his calculation does not succeed, at least Hagi Niang and the others will not be left in the temple, it is better than being captured by these people.
He walked up to the high platform with a wistful heart, looking around for something, while the crowd stared intently at his hand.
There were more and more people watching the excitement, and the slave tried hard to identify the figure he was familiar with from the crowd, but it was still in vain, but the people who gathered were a little impatient, and they began to coax, and the people who came later did not know why, but also asked each other the reason, and it was even more noisy.
The Great Elder was even more anxious in his heart, if this unknown boy really achieved a "miracle", his prestige in this temple would also be affected, he saw the slave hesitating and walking slowly, and hurriedly whispered a few words to the disciples around him, the disciple got the pointing, hurriedly stepped forward, and said to the slave: "Little thief, don't you want to delay the time to escape, or quickly hand over the things in your hands, our Great Elder is merciful, as long as the treasures in my temple are not damaged in the slightest, You will not be held accountable for stealing treasures. ”
If it is an ordinary treasure, the slave will definitely not quarrel with this great elder again, after all, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake of the ground, and making trouble in other people's fields is definitely not from the slave's heart, but this jade is too big, it is very important to himself and Hagi Niang, how can he let this great elder go away.
Seeing that it was urgent, he could only slowly raise his right hand, flatten his five fingers, put the jade tied with the tasseled side up, carried the true qi, and said slowly but loudly: "Everyone is a witness, I will count three times in a while, if this jade is accepted by the Buddha, it means that this jade is indeed ours, if not, then I will offer this jade with both hands, and then kowtow to the presiding elder of your temple to make amends." ”
Someone below already laughed: "Is this man a fool?" Even if there are gods and Buddhas, how can they have time to listen to your orders? ”
Some people who are more calculating also laughed: "Even if you use this method to really prove that this jade is yours, then how do you get the Buddha to return it to you?" How can there be such a stupid person in the world? ”
The slave looked around again, but he still didn't see the person he wanted to see, so he could only grit his teeth, raise the jade in his hand, and shout loudly: "One, two, 、......"
When the people around him saw that he really began to count, they couldn't help but calm down, and looked at his hand with bated breath, not daring to blink their eyes, lest they miss this rare scene.
