Chapter 6: The Language of the Master

The Taoist priest walked up to Mo Sang, and the floating weight in his hand shook slightly in his chest and spoke.

"Donor, the poor road travels all the way east. At this point, I am hungry and thirsty, can I give some money to make the poor Taoist doctor suffer from hunger and thirst?"

The Taoist priest's tone was slow, his breath was calm, and he stood straight in front of Mo Sang like a pine tree.

Mo Sang saw that the Taoist priest took the initiative to come over and talk, so he couldn't reply, so he had to get up and make a gesture and speak.

"The master is serious, if the master doesn't dislike it, please sit down. I'm willing to invite the master to eat this meal, but please don't dislike it. ”

Mo Sanbi respectfully got up and moved his chair forward and motioned for the Taoist priest to sit down.

Seeing that Mo Sang was humble and polite, the Taoist priest smiled slightly and sat down.

Seeing the Taoist priest sit down, Mo Sang took out two silver ingots from his arms and handed them to the Taoist priest and said.

"Master, I'm just a student who went to Beijing to catch the exam, and I don't have too much silver on me. These five taels of silver are the limit of what I can take, and please don't dislike it. ”

Mo Sang didn't say anything empty at this time, he never carried much silver with him. As long as it is enough for some of his normal expenses, this trip to the capital to catch the exam, Mo Yuanwai was worried that his son would suffer, so he gave a lot of silver, but it was all stored in the housekeeper, and Mo Sang was only about seven or eight taels of silver.

However, these five taels of silver are already a lot, and this tea shed like Mo Sang is sitting now may not be able to receive five taels of silver in a month.

Mo Sang put the silver two in front of the Taoist priest, and it happened that the shopkeeper walked out of the tea shed carrying a pot of tea. He saw all of Mo Sang's actions just now, and at this time, when he saw the five taels of silver in front of the Taoist priest, his eyes were red, and he immediately cursed himself for being blind. This boy can be so generous to a Taoist priest who passes by, obviously he will not be the kind of miser who detains himself.

The shopkeeper thought that his actions just now would inevitably leave a bad impression on this generous son, so he hurriedly sent the tea ordered by Mo Sang to the front, and poured a cup of tea for Mo Sang and the Taoist priest with a diligent and skillful action, and nodded and said.

"Guest officer, just now the little one has eyes and doesn't know Taishan, please don't blame. What else would you like to have?"

Mo Sang's attitude changed greatly before and after, and the shopkeeper was also speechless, and said with a wry smile.

"The master said that if you are hungry, you can pick up the best food in your shop and serve it vigorously, and I will treat you. ”

The shopkeeper was overjoyed when he saw that Mo Sang didn't care about his previous recklessness, and when he heard that Mo Sang was going to have a treat and ordered the best meal, he was immediately overjoyed. Crisply agreed, and hurried back to the back kitchen to order the food to be served.

Seeing that Mo Sang did not blame the shopkeeper but ordered the most expensive thing as the shopkeeper wished, the Taoist priest felt that Mo Sang was a broad-minded and kind and straightforward person, and he couldn't help but have some good feelings.

"The pale face of the poor Taoist temple is ruddy, and there is a faint purple qi in the heavenly court, thinking that he will definitely be able to go high in this imperial examination. ”

Mo Sang heard the Taoist priest say that he could be the top student in high school, and his heart couldn't help but be overjoyed. From the observation just now, it can be seen that this Taoist priest must be extraordinary, and what he said about being able to be a high school champion may definitely be able to.

"May it be as the master said, if you can be a high school champion, you will definitely thank the master. ”

The Taoist priest nodded with a smile when he heard Mo Sang's answer, but he stretched out his right hand and pinched his fingers for a while, and his brows furrowed again.

"This imperial examination will cause trouble, and the prince must remember to be careful in everything, and not to act rashly. If you can't get it, you can't get it, and if you can't earn it, you can give it up to be safe. ”

Mo Sang heard that the Taoist priest suddenly turned around and said a lot of inexplicable words, and muttered a little in his heart, so he asked.

"Xiaosheng is ignorant, I don't know what the master means by this?"

The Taoist priest looked puzzled, smiled softly and said.

"It seems that there is no need to eat, today you and I are destined to meet, I will give you a little song. ”

The Taoist priest got up and prepared to walk out, muttering as he went.

"Don't forget, don't disturb each other, God knows the origin and extinction. The title of the gold list is gone, and the dragon lies in the shallow sink. ”

The Taoist priest had disappeared from the official road after reciting the song, and Mo Sang looked at the back of the Taoist priest leaving, and was very puzzled by what he said. At this time, the shopkeeper had already walked up with some food, and Mo Sang had to withdraw his gaze. When he saw the place where the Taoist priest was sitting just now, Mo Sang was shocked.

Originally, the five taels of silver that Mo Sang handed to the Taoist priest did not take it away when the Taoist priest left. However, at this time, the five taels of silver turned golden yellow, Mo Sang picked up these two gold ingots and looked at them in front of him, and felt more and more that the Taoist priest was not simple. It's just that he just said a lot of strange things, what does it mean?

At this time, Fauber had already settled the carriage, walked to the table where Mo Sang was sitting, and when he saw Mo San's brows furrowed, he spoke.

"Young master, what's wrong with you? Isn't there anything uncomfortable? Why are you holding two gold ingots? I remember that you usually don't want to bring more silver, why is it so strange today. ”

Mo Sang heard a series of questions from Fauber and knew that he had lost his temper. Quickly put away his thoughts and responded to Fu Bo, who was worried.

"Fauber, I'm fine. Maybe you're tired, so sit down and eat. ”

When Fauber saw that Mo Sang had returned to normal, he looked at his face but was a little tired, and he passed the letter with suspicion.

Mo Sang had dinner with Fauber, and after a short walk with Fauber, he saw an inn. On the door of the inn is written the three words "Dongyuelai", which is the name of the inn. Mo Sang gently recited these three words in his mind, but he was a little elegant. It's no wonder that it is the best inn in the neighborhood, and presumably the literati who come and go will want to stay here.

Fauber went to the counter alone and asked for two rooms, one upper and one lower. Fauber handed the room card to Mo Sang and admonished.

"Young master, you have been bumpy and tired all the way, so rest early after you get to the room. I'm living downstairs from you, so come down to me if there's anything you want. ”

Mo Sang took the room card handed over by Fauber and agreed softly.

This upper room is the best room in the inn, and is usually located upstairs. First, it is quieter, and secondly, it also shows the noble status of the guests. The lower room is much simpler, and it is often prepared for those who pass by and work hard or accompany the master to live in the hotel.

Mo Sang took the door number and entered the room under the guidance of the shopkeeper. The room is furnished with furniture that most aristocratic families have, and even some of the furniture that aristocratic lords loved for the love of men and women.

Mo Sang looked at these strange furniture, no matter how he looked at it, it was a little awkward and an eyesore. So he walked outside the door to find the shopkeeper and asked them to take it all.

Seeing that there were finally no more disappointments in the room, Mo Sang walked to the bed gently, and lay lazily on the bed without taking off his clothes.
