Chapter 1 Notes on the Dry Heart Sutra
"Let me tell you Brother Xiaochen, that old man is stupid, and he doesn't blow as hard as you at all!"
Ning Chen quietly listened to the bragging of the person in front of him, but shook his head silently. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Brother Xiaochen, don't believe it, even the king of heaven Lao Tzu is here, and he has also gained our way!" The person in front of him shook off the burden in his hand, "Haha, in our land, it is the dragon that has to be coiled, and the tiger has to be located! We are the snake of this land!"
Ning Chen couldn't stand it anymore and shook his head: "Xie San, this time you are lucky, don't trouble the Taoist priest next time, in case the priest can do two magic techniques, you will be planted there with a cheap life." ”
"Phew, my Xie Laosan's life is not cheap!" Xie San said, "Besides, what if those people know magic?"
"People who know magic are not comparable to us!" Ning Chen said, "If we provoke them, I'm afraid we won't know how to die." ”
How can Xie Laosan be so inflated now, he just can't wait for an emperor in front of him to let him deceive.
"Hey, this is the difference between you and me, Brother Xiaochen, you are empty-handed, but if you don't have a good mouth, you can be on an equal footing with me Xie Laosan, if you are more clever, maybe it will be a tyrant in our Changqing District!"
"Shhhh
Changqing District has always been under the hands of the one-eyed dragon Gan Yue, it is said that this Gan Yue has practiced martial arts in Shaolin, and has also learned two techniques, and no one dares to argue with it in Changqing District.
If it is in other places, the law and order are good, and the local snake is beaten twice at most, and the matter is over.
But Changqing District is different, there is no law and order here.
If Gan Yue wanted to pinch Ning Chen to death, there would be no one to do justice for him.
"Come on, Brother Chen, let's take a look at what treasures are here. Xie San also knew that what he said would bring disaster to Ning Chen, so he didn't continue to speak, but began to study the treasure he got today.
This burden was stolen from an old Taoist by the two of them together, Xie Laosan diverted the attention of the old Taoist with a flamboyant tongue, and Ning Chen then used the magic of empty hands to steal the package, and the two of them made a living from this on weekdays.
Xie San opened the package, which contained a pile of loose silver and an oilcloth bag.
"This thing is definitely a good thing!" Xie San directly put the scattered silver aside and picked up the oilcloth bag.
"Next, let's witness today's results!" Xie San opened the oilcloth bag.
After opening the package, Xie San was stunned.
Inside is a book, Xie San is so big, what bull ghosts, snakes and gods have never touched, they just haven't touched the book.
He felt that this was something that high-end people touched, and he also knew that he was a lowly person, and he couldn't use it after reading.
So I simply gave up on myself and simply became illiterate for the rest of my life.
"Brother Xiaochen, what is this?"
"Four Books and Five Classics. Ning Chen said.
"This is the Four Books and the Five Classics? Brother Xiaochen, I can't read, don't lie to me. ”
"It's the Four Books and the Five Classics. Ning Chen pointed to the four big characters on it and said, "Four-book-five-scripture-"
"You didn't lie to me?
"yes!"
"Bah! That old Taoist priest pretended to be a master of the world, he didn't have any money in his bag, he didn't have a baby, and he still had a copy of the Four Books and Five Classics!" Xie Laosan spat on the ground, and then threw the book on the ground, "It's bad luck for Lao Tzu, damn it, I still want to exchange some silver taels to go to Zuiyue Tower to be happy." this dead Taoist ......"
Ning Chen picked up the book, shook the dust on it, and then stretched out his hand to pat it.
"Four Books and Five Classics......" Ning Chen muttered to himself and turned over the cover of the book.
"What's so good to see is nothing more than the reading materials of those scholars. Xie San shook his hand, "Brother Xiaochen, if you like you to take it, but these silver taels will belong to me!"
"How many silver taels is this?" Ning Chen asked quietly.
"About seventeen taels?"
"I want seven taels. Ning Chen said, "Exchange one or two halves for the book, otherwise, the book will be torn in half, and the silver will be divided in half." ”
"Deal. Xie San said.
In fact, Xie San didn't tell the truth, he got a total of twenty taels on hand.
For a poor man, twenty taels of silver is not too little.
Even if it is divided into five or five, two people will take ten taels each, and it can be spent for a while to save money.
But they are not ordinary people, they have to pay five taels of silver to Gan Yue's Dulong Club every month, only in this way can they, the rats crossing the street, not be killed when they miss.
As for saying that you don't want to pay it, that's simpler, if you don't pay it, whether you are caught or not, Gan Yue will send someone to arrest the two, after all, both of them have criminal records, and they are just helpless thieves, even if they are secretly killed, no one will do justice for them.
They are the existence at the bottom of Changqing District, the most meaningless and worthless group of people.
Ning Chen got seven taels of silver, handed over five taels and left two taels, and then he had to continue stealing, otherwise he would have a very poor month this month.
Xie San got thirteen taels, and after handing over five taels, there were eight taels to squander, but it was much more nourishing than Ning Chen.
Although the two are under the same roof and live the lowest life, they also distrust each other, intrigue everywhere, and look forward to stepping on each other's top positions.
Ning Chen knew that Xie San was greedy everywhere, and he almost betrayed himself a few times, so he had to be careful everywhere when working with this kind of person, and he must not trust him too much.
Therefore, he also directly concealed the truth.
This book is actually not the Four Books and Five Classics at all, and anyone who has read a little bit knows that the Four Books and Five Classics are not actually a book, but Xie Sanke, who has not read a book, does not know.
Ning Chen only took a cursory look at this book, and only felt that the content in the book must be very mysterious.
This kind of treasure must not be known to Xie San, otherwise it will be a small matter if he loses a chance to get ahead, and if he dies for it, it will be a big matter.
"Brother Xiaochen, you take the seven taels of silver first, I will come to visit another day, if there is any difficulty, tell my brother. After earning a few taels of silver, Xie Laosan also felt satisfied.
"When the time comes, I will definitely speak. Ning Chen wished that this person would leave immediately.
The brother took his leave. Xie San turned around, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
It's hard to imagine how fast you can change your face.
Who Xie San is, Ning Chen knows very well in his heart. This kind of person should not be deeply acquainted.
There was also a time when Xie San embezzled some of Ning Chen's silver, causing Ning Chen to risk his life to steal again, but Xie San used the money to spend all his time.
Ning Chen didn't say much about him, but from then on, he no longer thought that Xie San was his friend.
After Xie San left, he couldn't wait to take out the book he had just gotten.
On the cover of the book are written four large characters: Notes on the Dry Heart Sutra.
