Chapter 16: Two Men with Ghosts
The sun moved one step forward, and with a "bang", the temple bell was rung on time, and the dull sound of the bell spread to every part of the temple, telling that the fireworks in the world were about to begin.
Listening to the bell for lunch in the temple, Yuan Qiao and the two of them conspired under the corridor to end hastily.
Qiao Yipan took the amnesiac Yuan Shuyu to eat fasting easily, and he was free on the way.
Yuan Shuyu couldn't hold back, and asked a puzzled question, "Why do you have to go out of the city in violation of the curfew at night?" β
Aunt Liu is the concubine of Yuan Shuyu's father, Marquis Anqing, although she is very favored, but she has been living in the corner of Yuanfu, Yuan Shuyu doesn't like her, she never calls her aunt, only calls her Liu. The pregnant aunt in the house is her.
Qiao Yipan smiled slightly, shook his head and didn't speak.
Yuan Shuyu had doubts in his heart that could not be solved, his heart was itchy and unbearable, and he snorted angrily, as if to say, I know that you are not credible, and there is something to hide from me if you plan together.
Qiao Yipan has never been easy to mess with, she sneered and asked rhetorically: "Then why do you have to Liu to shake everything in front of the Marquis of Anqing?" β
Yuan Shuyu was silent and did not speak.
Qiao Yipan also "hummed", as if to say, you are still fighting with me!
The two quarreled all the way to the place where they had lunch noisily.
Not to be outdone, both of them entered the door at the same time, and as soon as they entered, they parted ways, as if the road was narrow.
When Angelica came early, when he saw Yuan Shuyu, he hurriedly went up to see if their amnesiac master had been cheated of money by Elder Puning, and surrounded him on the left and right, but in this way, it was like the three of them dealing with Qiao Yipan alone.
It looked like the girl was pitiful, and Yuan Shuyu wanted to go over and stand on her side.
But thinking about the issues that were arguing along the way, Yuan Shuyu didn't take a small concession, lowered his head and didn't look at her.
Soon, the chief of Tsing Yi, who also came early, finally found out about the situation, frowned and looked at the two people opposite, and stood behind Qiao Yipan with an expressionless face.
The chief of Tsing Yi finally took the lead in looking at the real angelica defiantly, and they were not afraid of fighting!
Angelica just breathed a sigh of relief for his master's money, and in a blink of an eye, he met the fierce eyes on the opposite side in a daze.
Angelica can bear it, he really can't bear it, he glared back coldly, and his eyes were fierce.
The momentum on both sides is about to erupt without the main characters on both sides noticing, and the situation is tense, like tigers fighting each other, and one look is about to fight in the dark, making people unable to stop.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
Elder Puning was late, and said questioning words as he stepped into the door, with a fair and just look on his face, but as soon as he entered the door, he stood directly beside Qiao Yipan and expressed his position.
No one had time to speak, and Elder Puning was not angry when he didn't get a response, he looked at Yuan Shuyu and said, "How can you do such a thing?!" β
The old Taoist looked sad, but his pity was beyond words.
Yuan Shuyu: ......???
Yuan Shuyu clasped his fists and saluted, and said loudly: "I just have something to understand, and I ask you to answer your doubts." β
The little monks who were originally just eavesdropping immediately looked at the young man who looked bright and expectant.
The young man's eyes were firm, and he asked, "Did the egg come first or the chicken came first?" β
Elder Puning: ...... What's that?
No one spoke, silently not looking at the two.
The little monks who often listened to the stories told by the senior brothers were all thinking blankly, and the geniuses of the senior brothers didn't seem to be very smart.
Everyone thought there was something big wrong with the two of them, but it turned out that this problem was indeed "big", but this question is recognized as who says who is justified, and it has long been out of vogue to debate.
No one can solve it, but people can argue about it.
The little monk who distributed the meal saw the eyes of the Puning Daoist at him, and shouted in understanding: "Open the meal!" β
The two, who were considered naΓ―ve, did not quarrel anymore and obediently found a seat and sat down.
The monks in Puning Temple are all together when they eat, but the small rules of the temple are not small, if the pilgrims stay to eat, the temple will specially prepare food to send.
Of course, Yuan Qiao and his party were an accident.
