XLIV. Divine judgment
Forty-four divine judgments
Inside the large grass room of the council hall.
Water Princess, Water Chestnut, Sally, Lu Wei, Xinge, Zhou An and others are in deliberations.
It can be seen that due to the peace of the situation and the stability of society, the process of deliberation is very relaxed.
The water princess asked, "When Lotus Leaf returned to Chongwu Island, what did she explain?" ”
Water chestnut said: "When the lotus leaf returned to Chongwu, he also left a pair of carrier pigeons, and the pair left by General Zhao Yun, we have two pairs of pigeons." Lotus Ye explained that when the pigeon is released, there is no need to carry a letter, so as not to leak the secret in case of emergency. As soon as she saw the pigeon, she knew that something was important, and she would come to her aid from Chongwu. ”
The water princess nodded and said, "That's excellent." Is there any news from Jiro Miki? ”
Water chestnut said: "The day before yesterday, the 'Haifuku' returned from Nagasaki. Boss Yu said: Jiro-kun has arrived safely. ”
Sally said: "Princess, Boss Yu still has something to say." ”
The water chestnut asked, "Say what?" ”
Sally said: "Boss Yu said, Brother Miki confessed, told Sister Water Chestnut to wait for him with peace of mind, and when his beautiful little home is built, he will marry Sister Water Chestnut as a bride." ”
The water chestnut said: "As far as your ears are pointed, you can hear anything." ”
Princess Shui smiled when she heard this, turned her head and asked Lu Wei: "General Lu, how is the security in Yizhou recently?" ”
Lu Wei said: "Princess, Yizhou has been very stable recently. Recently, a farmer named Li Shan, who went up the mountain to chop firewood, stumbled and fell to the bottom of the stream cage (under the cliff of the stream), and fell to his death. ”
The water princess asked with concern: "When peasants go up to the mountains to work, do they often fall and fall to their deaths?" ”
Lu Wei replied, "I haven't heard of this. ”
The water princess said to Xin Ge: "General Xin, you ask all the townships to report the dangerous road sections and the bridges that are commonly used to pass, and make unified arrangements for emergencies and repairs them one by one, or the villagers themselves will work, or arrange for the master to construct, all of which will be paid by the government." ”
Xing Ge replied, "Yes, princess, my subordinates will arrange it immediately." Those veterans who were willing to do this business before, the construction was not bad. It can be seen that he is an experienced master. I'll arrange for them to do a few more. ”
The water princess said: "We must remind them repeatedly that there are projects and opportunities to make money, but the quality of the projects must be good." If you only care about making money, and the quality of the project is sloppy, there will be no opportunity to make money in the future. ”
Singh replied, "The subordinates will often admonish them. ”
Zhou An said: "Tell the princess, the Luohan Hall has been flourishing recently, and the villagers are now talking about marriage, property disputes, and fighting and revenge in the Luohan Hall to ask God for the verdict." ”
The water princess asked vigilantly, "Oh? Luohan Hall has such magical powers? ”
Zhou An said: "The villagers don't ask the government to ask about the ghosts and gods now. ”
The water princess said solemnly: "I didn't expect that Luohan Hall is actually a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden. I'm going to see what kind of divine judgment the Arhat patriarch is. ”
Water chestnut said: "The princess should not be careless, I think that Luohan Hall is not an ordinary place. ”
The water princess nodded and said: "Let's pretend to be the people, make a private visit, be quiet, and be fine." Let's go, Sally, let's go and have a look. ”
The water princess took Sally away in civilian clothes.
When the water chestnut saw it, he felt uneasy, and beckoned to Wang Fei.
Wang Fei walked up to the water chestnut.
The water chestnut whispered a few words to Wang Fei, and Wang Fei took the order and left.
Water chestnut said to Zhou An: "Uncle Zhou, the two of us also went to see the excitement in plain clothes." ”
Zhou An likes to be lively the most, and responded repeatedly: "Okay, good." ”
The water princess and Sally walk down the road in alpine casual clothes.
There were many pedestrians on the road, all walking in the direction of Luohan Hall.
The water princess motioned to Sally to ask the old man on the road: "There are a lot of passers-by today, and they are all in the same direction as us, is there something wrong?" ”
Sally asked an old man, "Uncle, where are you going to go with such a lively road today?" ”
The old man said, "Girl, you don't know yet? Everyone is going to the Luohan Hall to listen to the divine judgment. ”
Sally smiled and asked, "Is it looking for cattle or looking for gold (children)?" ”
The old man said: "Looking for cattle and looking for gold are all found in the existing places, which is not uncommon." Today I will judge the marriage of such and such a wife. ”
Sally asked, "The signature (thing) of marrying a certain person is so ordinary, how can so many people go to see it?" ”
The old man said: "It is normal for a man to marry a woman. This time the man had four brothers and the woman had only one. Luo Han's feet patted his chest and said that the patriarch should judge justice and fairness, so that every man can marry a bride. ”
The water princess asked in surprise: "Four men, one woman, Luohan Hall said that it can be judged that every man can marry a bride?" ”
The old man said: "Yes, it's rare, I haven't heard of it, so everyone comes to see how the ancestor judges." ”
Sally laughed, "That's funny. ”
The water princess asked as she walked, "May I ask Uncle, what is the matter with these four brothers?" Didn't they marry so-and-so? ”
The old man said: "These four brothers were originally five brothers, the eldest, the second, the third, and the fourth all married a certain child and started a family. The day before, the fourth Li Shan went up the mountain to chop wood, stumbled and fell to the bottom of the stream cage and died. The fifth child thought that the fertilizer water would not flow into other people's fields, and he wanted to marry the fourth brother and sister-in-law Lianxin as his wife. Who knew that the boss was unwilling and wanted to marry Lianxin's brother-in-law as a second room, so the brothers competed and asked the ancestor of Luohan Hall to judge. Who knew that the Arhat foot walked up and down several times, and the second and third children also intervened in the fight, saying that the Arhat Foot promised that they would all go to the Arhat Hall to listen to the divine judgment, and each of them could marry a bride. The patriarch judged that the time was set today. Therefore, everyone has to see the rarity and see if it will be fair if the Arhat Patriarch will judge. ”
The water princess nodded and whispered a few words to Sally.
Sally hesitated and said, "How about you going alone?" ”
The water princess smiled: "It's nothing, you go quickly." ”
Sally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go now." ”
Sally turned around and ran.
The water princess said to the old man, "Uncle, I'll go with you." ”
The old man nodded and said, "Wow, it's not tiring to walk with a companion on the road." ”
Sally ran all the way back and ran into water chestnut and Zhou An.
Sally whispered to them.
Zhou An said: "This is easy to do. I know her. I'll take you to her house and call them all out. ”
The water princess and the old man came to the front of the Luohan Hall.
There are many cows grazing on the grass on the nearby hillside.
The water princess asked, "Uncle, the cows are all resting today?" ”
The old man said: "Everyone in the society came to Luohan Hall to listen to God's judgment, and the cattle had no work to do, just to earn rest. ”
The water princess said, "There are no reeds now, otherwise I can feed the cows." ”
The old man said, "You also love to feed cows, and you know that cows love to eat reeds." There are a few more scattered on the ground here, and I'll help you pick them up. ”
The water princess and the old man picked up the reeds, and each picked up a handful.
