045 Faceless Buddha
"Mom, I'm out of the house."
Botta carefully closed the door, let out a sigh of relief, and relaxed.
Shortly after dawn, he left home early under the pretext that he wanted to help the church, so that he could get to the dock for loading and unloading.
Although the "barrel" distillery where he works is located in the diocese of Taris, most of the brewing process is done in factories all over West Asia, and the distillery in the capital is more like a large store and a showcase for the latest winemaking techniques.
There are other reasons for loading and unloading at dawn - loading and unloading goods is a race against time, and ports often have strict berthing rules for each cargo ship, if it is in the off-season, it is likely to stop for a long time, and if it is in the busy hours of the port, it is often necessary to scramble for the goods - otherwise, you will face the fines of the port, and be ordered to sail to a more remote periphery, and the difficulty of unloading is much greater.
"Mr. Gu?"
To his surprise, there was no one on the street at this o'clock, but now a figure was standing quietly outside his door, smiling and waving at him.
There were still unmelted snowflakes on his shoulders, and his hair was a little wet.
But this is the first machine that can sleep on Bailan Mountain, which is nothing.
"Sir, I—we're on an appointment for the evening, aren't we?"
Porta said as he tightened his scarf and sniffled, "How long have you waited?" But I'm going to work now, I can't entertain you, and Mommy hasn't woken up yet......"
"Going to work so early?"
Han Dongwen raised his hand and signaled that Porta didn't have to stay here: "There are a few small questions, let's talk about them as we walk." ”
Porta nodded, and the two of them immediately walked in the direction of the harbor by the street lights that had not yet been turned off.
"What do you want to know, sir?"
With a white breath in his mouth, Botta took out two slices of bread from his arms, and his expression was a little hesitant: "You...... Have you had breakfast yet? ”
Han Dongwen nodded expressionlessly: "You eat this in the morning?" ”
"It's hard work for a while, and I can't stand it on an empty stomach."
Porta didn't say much, he really needed the energy of these two slices of bread, and he knew that it would be indecent to divide such a shriveled loaf of bread, and most of the other party would not look down on it.
After a moment of silence, Han Dongwen spoke: "Porta, I have observed the condition of your mother Loreth yesterday, and to be honest, the situation is not optimistic. ”
Porta's footsteps slowed down, and he turned his head sideways and looked at Han Dongwen in disbelief: "How, how come?" Mom, she's been getting better a lot these days, and she couldn't even get out of bed before, how can this not be optimistic?! ”
Han Dongwen raised his hand to signal him to calm down: "Don't worry, I mean, the medicine she took is very, well, she is taking a very effective medicine, originally after taking the medicine, she should have fully recovered by now, but she is obviously still a little weak now, we have to find out the reason." ”
He paused for a moment and asked solemnly, "Porta, what other medicine did your mother take during her illness?" ”
In fact, this question must have been asked by Chi Hanqing, and when understanding the patient, in addition to the symptoms, he will also understand the situation of his medication.
Sure enough, Porta shook his head: "When I first started in the church, the church distributed some medicines, but then there was no improvement, in fact, I was only using some cough medicines, and that princess knew it." ”
Chi Hanqing knew......
Han Dongwen pondered for a moment, and a somewhat bold and chilling thought popped up in his mind.
"The cough medicine is also distributed by the church?"
Porta nodded, and Han Dongwen swallowed and asked a question that he could already guess the answer to.
"It's because the church prescribes cough medicine to your family and tells you that it's a clinical trial, that you understand what it means?"
"Yes, yes...... Mr. ”

Taishangku.
Wen Yongxing sat quietly in front of the bookcase, and there were a lot of bookcases piled up on both sides.
"Take a break."
Zhong Lilin walked in from the door outside the pavilion, took some of the posts that had been written, and said with concern.
Wen Yongxing showed a somewhat tired smile and nodded slightly.
"Taishu Pavilion hasn't been so busy in a while."
He is telling the truth, since Han Dongwen "succeeded to the throne", this Taishuge can be described as a quiet and almost boring place all year round, every year is nothing more than a microphone for the National Soldiers Division, and the preparations for the year of the immortal ceremony are over.
In just a few months, there have been so many things all of a sudden.
"There are still documents that have not been approved by the National Finance Division, and the ...... of commercial tax in West Asia"
As if he was inspecting, he counted the unfinished work one by one, and Zhong Lilin immediately said: "Please rest assured that the teacher will give the students the first approval, you have been busy for many days." ”
"It's okay, just do it for a while and you'll be done."
Wen Yongxing meant that he didn't want to rest, Zhong Lilin thought for a moment, turned around and respectfully took out a box and put it on the table.
It was a black box with the imprints of a sword and shield outlined in gold thread.
"What is this?"
Wen Yongxing asked.
Zhong Lilin bowed his head slightly: "Teacher, this is the things that the General Secretary of the Department of National Law brought to Her Highness this time when she went to the Principality of West Asia to inspect the five border cities, and the West Asia Bus gave her something. ”
"Your Excellency the General Department of National Law has been here?"
Zhong Lilin nodded: "I came earlier, presumably Lord General didn't want to stay in West Asia, and he came back quickly, and when he arrived at Taishu Pavilion, he only left this box and left." ”
Wen Yongxing stroked his long beard and listened, nodded slowly, was silent for a moment before asking, "Is the General Department of National Law here alone?" ”
"This ......"
Zhong Lilin was stunned for a moment: "No, Lord Liu Cheng of the National Finance Division accompanied her to come." ”
He paused and asked curiously, "How do you know?" ”
Wen Yongxing looked at the expression of the apprentice in front of him, and showed a somewhat helpless smile: "Look, you still think too shallowly, the things that the Grand Duke of West Asia handed over to His Royal Highness will be handed over by the National Law Division, of course, someone must witness it, so that he will not be caught by his opponent, the National Military Division." ”
"I see......"
Zhong Lilin nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Then please ask the teacher to present this thing to His Highness, the thing has been checked, and there is nothing wrong with it." ”
Wen Yongxing looked him up and down a few times, and understood that this disciple was getting up and walking around in a way to get up and walk around, and take a rest, so he didn't refuse, stood up and moved his muscles and bones.
A few scholars who were waiting on the side hurriedly stepped forward, supported him, and walked out of the pavilion with the box.
"You can rough the fold first, and wait for me to come back and see it."
"Please rest assured, teacher."
Zhong Lilin respectfully sent him away from Taishang.
The box is not locked, and there is no other way to close it.
It seems that Tilda never worried about anyone peeking at this thing when the bus came out - this is also a natural thing, after all, it has to be delivered to His Highness, and it will naturally have to go through many inspections for safety.
When the box was handed to Han Dongwen, Han Dongwen immediately smiled.
Shouldn't I be able to see what I can't see on the first machine?
Isn't this still obediently delivered to me?
After thanking Wen Yongxing, Han Dongwen thought about what would be in this box, and gently placed him on the desk in the dormitory, and slowly opened it.
The black box was filled with white silk sponge like jewelry, and in the middle lay a wooden object.
This is......
"Buddha statue?"
Han Dongwen waited for a while before reaching out and taking out the woodcarved Buddha statue, and after taking a closer look, he realized that something was wrong.
This woodcarved Buddha statue comes to life. The carved is that I don't know which Buddha is sitting on the lotus platform, holding Shi Yiyin in both hands, and the law is in the Zhuang......
The Dharma is not solemn.
It is better to say that this Buddha statue has no Dharma appearance at all.
This turned out to be a woodcut faceless Buddha?
"What's that?"
Han Dongwen muttered to himself with some confusion, he thought that the things sent by Grand Duke Tilda would be somewhat useful, and that Grand Duke didn't look like a woman who liked to joke?
He held the Buddha statue in his hand, and was about to take a closer look, when suddenly there was a crisp sound in his ears, and when he looked down again, the Buddha statue, and even the arm he held the Buddha statue, suddenly burst open like broken glass!
"Smack!"
There was a crisp cracking sound, and the cracks were not only all over his hands and Buddha statues. It spreads into the air. Floor tiles behind the hands, tables and chairs -
It wasn't so much a crack in his hand as a crack in his eyes.
He had never seen anything like this before.
In an instant, the mirror shattered, and a gray mist spread.
"Han Dongwen."
An unfamiliar and somewhat familiar voice, from top to bottom, sounded like a god.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Gao."
Han Dongwen was not surprised, and raised his head slightly.
That's right, this is the place I saw last time I worked in West Asia.
Seven Senses Heart King Realm.
This time, his mind quickly calmed down, and he looked around, only to find that there was a faint figure on the left not far away, and it was obviously Archduke Tilda looking at his figure and long hair.
"You're amazing."
Han Dongwen's words were not all compliments, and his tone was really a little sour - Gao should have already returned to Taka at this time, and with a small Buddha statue, he could make long-distance calls like this, which was indeed very capable.
"You're the only one this time."
Although he couldn't see Gao's expression, his tone was as relaxed as the last time.
Han Dongwen shrugged: "It doesn't look like it's gone, even if there is ......"
He wanted to blurt out, but even if there was, it was a different person, but suddenly remembered that the two people in front of him could not be trusted, and it was better to know less things from the other party.
After being a dumb man for so long, he still learned to be more careful.
"How?" Tilda's voice was emotionless.
"Nothing."
Han Dongwen hurriedly diverted the topic: "Your Royal Highness, this thing you gave us must have instructions?" ”
