Chapter 55: Claws
The boundary of Taoliu Lane, which inherits the hinterland of the imperial city and the eastern suburbs, is between the poor and the rich, which is a special link between the rich and the poor.
The people living here mostly wander around to make a living in small wealth and peace, represented by the liquor shops and butcher stalls on West Street, which are the most indispensable part of the fireworks atmosphere of this alley.
It is precisely because of this to make a living that there is no need to be surprised that the black-faced woman who runs around the street with a pig-killing kitchen knife and half a pork fan all year round will have the courage to dare to confront Tu Zhenzhen without revealing half of her cowardice.
The black woman didn't know what Lu Yao was doing, and her eyes filled with anger bloomed with a resolute and fearless ruthlessness to fight to the death with Tu Zhenzhen.
The appearance of the woman being jealous is terrible to the extreme, no wonder when the little beggar comes out of the temple, he always mutters the warning of the Zen master.
Women are like tigers!
I used to be deeply skeptical, but today I have to believe it!
Now look at the eyes of the black-faced and Tu Zhenzhen who have entered a fierce confrontation, and a decisive attitude of imminent war and non-stop death is chilling!
The black woman with amazing arm strength is unambiguous, obviously she does not have the psychological constraints of "why should women be embarrassed by women", and she will not move any compassion because the other party is also a woman.
Raising the bucket of swill in her hand, the black-faced woman with amazing arm strength looked at Tu Zhenzhen coldly, lifted the bucket and dumped the filth and dirt in the bucket in one go, and directly poured it on the invincible crane woman Tu Zhenzhen with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai.
The disgusting smell of swill made my stomach tumble on the spot, and I almost wanted to gag.
I watched the dirt in front of me in a miserable arc, pouring towards Tu Zhenzhen, who was caught off guard, thinking that when a woman was embarrassed by a woman, she really never dragged the mud and water, and there was half a bit of hesitation.
The white crane, who had a premonition of bad and danger, screamed, but unfortunately was ruthlessly ignored by the angry woman who took it lightly.
Fortunately, in the process of Zhang Mazi and Tu Zhenzhen's struggle, he always maintained a certain distance, and did not attack too much, when a bucket of swill was splashed over without a drop left, he had a premonition that the situation was not good, and he directly dodged, turned over and retreated to the dilapidated courtyard.
"Whoa!"
The swill in the sky was like a downpour, directly covering the top of the pavement, and when he realized that the danger was coming, Tu Zhenzhen had no room for maneuver, so he had to block it with his hands.
The stench was stinking, and when the swill mixed with pig blood and filth fell on Tu Zhenzhen's body without falling a drop, Lu Yao immediately couldn't bear it, covered his mouth with his hand with his back to him, couldn't help the surging and rolling of his abdomen, and directly gagged.
"Vomit~~~"
Seeing this, the dog master's expression was not only jealous of the black-faced woman's resolute methods, but also disgusting discomfort, in short, the folded old face that had gone through vicissitudes was full of complex emotions that were difficult for me to fully understand at my age.
Watching the lively Wang Gongwang from a distance of several feet, watching Tu Zhenzhen being doused with swill, a wave of nausea welled up in his heart, and he also looked disgusted and uncomfortable, covering his mouth to adjust his mood and breathing.
The people who hid the door in the alley all had strange expressions, and their eyes were shining, thinking that the appearance of the black-faced woman who was stirring up the situation was somewhat unexpected, which made the neighbors who were keen on eating melons in the alley more and more curious, and they couldn't wait to poke their necks in front of the small courtyard.
Tu Zhenzhen was drenched in the swill splashed by the black woman, obviously she didn't expect to meet such a street shrew.
Tu Zhenzhen, who was doused with foul-smelling swill from top to bottom, was stunned for a long time, obviously she couldn't believe that she would end up so unbearable, and her face plummeted in front of the dog!
The rivals in love are always blushing when they see each other, especially the anger caused by the vinegar jar of the black-faced fierce woman at the moment provoked by Lu Yao's house, which is not trivial.
If the eyes could kill, then the two of them would have already broken each other's bones at this moment.
I covered my mouth and nose, trying not to let the breakfast I had just eaten gush out of my stomach, and it was the first time I had seen such a heavy saber rattling.
This is the only time, and I don't want to see it a second time!
When the stunned Tu Zhenzhen recovered from her stupor, the angry woman who had lost face gritted her teeth and puffed out her cheeks, and her eyes were full of fury that wanted to cramp and skin the black-faced woman!
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
The long whip in his hand sounded again, and the terrible sound was endless, sounding one after another over Taoliu Lane.
Tu Zhenzhen, who had lost face, waved the long whip in his hand, and his eyes revealed Ling Ling's murderous aura, vowing to dismantle the black-faced woman into eight pieces!
The black-faced woman seemed to be fearless, and then I saw her pull out the kitchen knife at her waist, and the cold and thick oil-faced kitchen knife flipped in her hand, and she also held the knife, with a desperate tough attitude.
Seeing this, if I can't see clearly that the black-faced has cultivation in her body, and her strength is not under Tu Zhenzhen, then I should find a piece of tofu and kill it directly.
The dog master looked at it for a moment, neither strange nor surprised, put down his hand that was covering his snort, and said in a deep voice: "How many paws did you put in Luoyang?" ”
The paws mentioned by the dog master are another name for "eyeliner" in the terminology of the rivers and lakes.
"Actually, I don't know how many ...... there are" Lu Yao didn't confess, only smiled indifferently: "I also recently discovered that this black-faced aunt is a claw hidden in Luoyang." ”
"Is it the handiwork of the Mud Bodhisattva?" The dog asked.
Lu Yao was also unsure, but he was still noncommittal: "It was he who came up with a plan to make me break away from the control of Jing Guo and come to the Eastern Capital to change my life against the sky, I think the people here should also be arranged by him." ”
The dog master was not surprised, but his eyes suddenly changed for a moment, as if he understood a lot of things at this moment.
I was confused, and Zhang Mazi was even more confused, not knowing the subtle meaning between the dialogue between the dog master and Lu Yao.
Although I don't know the relationship between Lu Yao and the mud bodhisattva, I have heard a lot about the famous name of the mud bodhisattva.
It is rumored that the mud bodhisattva was born lame and had difficulty moving, so he cut his hair and became a monk in Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, studied Buddhism for three years, and then went down the mountain to practice.
He was twenty years old when he dressed up in a robe to travel to the party, passing through the mountains to meet the tiger, cutting meat to feed the tiger, this matter was once widely spread in the rivers and lakes, and became the believers of Buddhism to admire, and worship the ascetic Zen monks.
The tiger mother in the mountain thanked her for her kindness, and saw the novice monks wearing monk's robes and holding Buddhist beads in the area of Mingzhi Mountain, so she knelt down on the ground, thanking the mud bodhisattva for his compassion and kindness.
Over time, there was an ascetic Zen monk who "knew that there were tigers in the mountains and preferred to go to the tiger mountains" in the territory of Buddhism, and the mud bodhisattva was the first person to create meditation and penance in terms of teaching.
The reason why the mud bodhisattva has a mud in front of the word "bodhisattva" is because the Buddha of the bitter sea fabricated a mud foot for it.
The mud bodhisattva walked in all directions, cultivated penance without crossing the river to cross the evil, tasted the suffering of the world and sought the Tao without survival, and taught the universal teachings of all the people in the world, walking the world for 20 years.
Its fame is at its peak, and it is famous on the banks of the weak water in the thirteenth year of Yongsheng.
Thinking of the mud bodhisattva who passed through the weak water river and scattered rice into pearls and saved all the people from fire and water, I can't help but be full of respect for this open-minded Zen monk.
"It seems that the clay bodhisattva has made a golden body ......"
Lu Yao didn't answer the question, but this silence was tantamount to silent acquiescence.
The dog master was very curious, and then asked, "What path is the mud bodhisattva looking for?" ”
"Six Paths of Shura...... The mud bodhisattva said that he does not go to hell, who goes to hell. ”
The dog snorted coldly, and this smile only stayed on his face for a moment.
"Shura knows the destiny of heaven together...... I'm curious, what's next he's going to do for you? ”
I didn't listen very well on the sidelines, and even a little foggy, it was obvious that everything Lu Yao did in Luoyang was not reckless, everything he did was from the guidance of the famous mud bodhisattva who could pinch and calculate.
"Let's look at the movement in the imperial city after January, the eaves of Luoyang, I can't stay at the end of the year!"
When Lu Yao spoke, a trace of reluctance flashed in his eyes, this subtle expression, I don't think it was deliberately pretending to be hypocritical.
Let's see after January?
What will happen in the Imperial City after January?
Lu Yao said that I became more and more curious, but when I thought that there was a strong man like the Mud Bodhisattva who knew the mysteries of the destiny behind him to give him advice, I seemed to understand that every step he took in Luoyang was secretly guided by a master.
Looking back at the black-faced woman, I no longer think she was just a rude butcher who slaughtered pigs and sheep with a knife on a board.
The characters of Taoliu Lane have surfaced, hidden deeply, and cultivated strongly, which makes me a little frightened, how many hidden masters live in this alley?
In the suri, the residents in the alley have kind faces, and they can't see any clues, and now they are about to jump out one by one, and the inherent image of these people appears to be in contrast with cloud and mud, which is very shocking.
I thought that these people were really hidden, and the sparkling kitchen knife in the hands of the black-faced woman rose and fell, and the light of the knife was faint, and she had the upper hand in momentum.
Looking at Tu Zhenzhen, who was drenched in filthy swill and smelly, with the disorder and anger of her mind soaring, the long whip in her hand was chaotic and disorderly, allowing her true spirit to rise angrily, and the fierce and domineering whip in her hand was also out of reach.
The confrontation between masters seems to be a small difference, but in fact it is a thousand miles wrong.
The black-faced woman seemed to be at ease with the long whip in Tu Zhenzhen's hand, and a kitchen knife flew all over the sky, so that the long whip that was an inch long and an inch strong always rubbed shoulders with her own vital points, and every yin damage offensive could be easily disassembled.
The two fought from the ground to the eaves, during which the black-faced woman with thick strength did not miss her black feet, kicking the corners of Tu Zhenzhen's mouth with blood.
The arrogance of the two women made Wang Gongwang very boring, and he raised his eyebrows tastelessly at this time, and beckoned to the old servant with a scarface.
"Today's play, I think it's almost time to end, and there are still three days before I leave Kyoto...... Arrange a competent person to come over, and think about when the son of this world will be embarrassed? ”
The old servant with the scarred face condensed slightly, did not force an explanation, bent down, nodded to Wang Gongwang and said: "This one who will come tomorrow is a master of making knives, not comparable to these two real people in the immeasurable view, I have inquired, this person's knife skills dare to be called the second in the Xiliang realm, no one dares to say that he is the first, known as the Xiliang Horse Cutting Knife, I listen to this name, it should be a ruthless character with excellent strength!" ”
"It has to be a ruthless character, earn me back face, and I will be rewarded in this life." Wang Gongwang, who was holding back his stomach, was extremely eager for him to be able to raise his eyebrows in Kyoto before leaving Luoyang to go out to practice.
"To deal with these ruthless people in Taoliu Lane, only more ruthless people can force one head!"
The old servant nodded, squinted his smiling eyes, and made a bland look at the dog master!
