It wasn't until the fourth watch that the night banquet came to an end.

I don't know if it's because of annoyance, or because he drank too much real wine, Gu Yaohua's footsteps back to his residence were all vain and staggering, and he needed someone to help him.

As he walked back, he also made a wry smile in his heart, he was also very yearning for this kind of banquet that only rich and noble people can have, and he imagined what kind of pleasant scene it was.

It wasn't until now that I realized that the things on these banquets were really not something that a rough person could handle, and I didn't have the ability to easily resolve all problems between pushing the cup and changing the lamp. It was even more exhausting than hard labor in the mines.

Fortunately, things have taken a turn for the better, and Brother Liang is here. With him on the side, I should be able to solve the current problem.

Thinking of this, his footsteps stopped in front of the courtyard gate of his residence, got rid of the support of the two brothers, and said casually: "You all go back and rest, there are still things to do tomorrow." ”

"Gu Da, you've drunk too much, why don't we send you in?" One of them asked with concern.

"No, I can do it myself, you can go. A little bit of alcohol can still make me not even get a good night's sleep? ”

Seeing that Gu Yaohua was so persistent, the two of them couldn't say anything, so they could only stop outside the courtyard, watch him stagger inside, push open the door of the room, and light the candle steadily, and the two of them left with confidence.

But the two who turned to leave didn't know that there was not only one of them in the room, but also three other people, standing against the wall, not letting their shadows cast on the window.

And when Gu Yaohua lit the candle and saw that Liang Wentong was not the only one in the house, his smile quickly narrowed, and he subconsciously said: "Brother Liang, they are ......"

"Why, Brother Gu, did you lose recognition of your old friend so quickly?" Sun Ning asked with a smile, and took two steps forward slightly, so that the candlelight could hit his face more and the other party could see more clearly.

"You ......" Gu Yaohua was still a little confused, looking at Sun Ning carefully, and felt that this person was quite familiar.

It wasn't until Sun Ning said in a low voice: "Shangyuan Festival, Yunlin Temple is ......" that his body shook suddenly, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets, and most of the wine disappeared in an instant, and he shouted: "It's you!" ”

He finally recognized the smiling young man in front of him, wasn't he the lackey of the government who ruined his own affairs a few months ago and took him down with his own hands?

Furious, he didn't even think about it, he had already drawn his fist and attacked Sun Ning's face.

It's just that his martial arts are too much worse than Sun Ning, he wasn't an opponent that day, and it's naturally the same today, not to mention that he's still half drunk?

After gently leaning around, Sun Ning had already reached his side, and his palms were pulled and pressed again, but he had already controlled the other party on the wall on the side. He also said very easily: "Brother Gu, the previous grievances have become a thing of the past, and now we have more important things to talk to you about!" ”

"What do I have to talk about with you, the lackey of the government and Buddhism! If it weren't for you, why would we be here, my brothers......" The angry Gu Yaohua shouted while struggling.

But at this time, he was like a naughty boy facing an adult, with almost no ability to fight back, and he was controlled by the wall, and he couldn't even make a move. This also made Gu Yaohua even more angry, and his eyes were about to erupt with fire.

Seeing this, Liang Wentong didn't dare to sit idly by, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Yaohua, do you want to take revenge and kill us?" ”

As a person that Gu Yaohua has always respected, Liang Wentong's words are still somewhat useful in the end, and he saw that he moved slightly, but he still scolded angrily: "What kind of favor will be revenged? Brother Liang, were you also bought by them? ”

"Of course not, listen to me, your life, and the lives of those brothers who were arrested on the spot, were saved because of Brother Sun! Isn't it revenge for you to shout and kill him now? ”

"Fart, we were sent to the mines in western Zhejiang to serve hard labor because of him, and many brothers are still ...... He is our enemy! ”

"Listen to me, if he hadn't interceded with Yunlin Temple at that time and let the government spare your lives, you would not have been sent to the mines in western Zhejiang, but would have been killed directly in Hangzhou!"

These words made Gu Yaohua's whole person stunned, he really didn't know that there were such twists and turns, and at the same time he didn't want to admit it in his heart: "The cat cries the mouse, even if he really does this, I won't thank him." And it's because of him that we ......."

"Have you ever thought about what would have happened if I hadn't stopped it?" Sun Ning also opened his mouth at this time, and his words were sincere.

He knew that such a situation would occur, but in order not to cause chaos in the future, this time he decided to talk to him in person and eliminate the contradictions between the two sides as much as possible.

"What can be the result? It's that we succeeded......"

"Is your success the burning of a few temples and the death of hundreds of thousands of innocent people? Do you really think that with such means, you can curb or even overthrow the Jiangnan Buddhism? ”

Sun Ning's question made Gu Yaohua suffocate again. After being escorted to western Zhejiang, he actually thought about it a lot, although he was reluctant, but he also had to admit that his actions did not have a very positive effect on the destruction of the Buddha.

The Buddhist temple can be rebuilt after it burns down, and those monks who are dead can be found again. But what about the innocent people who died?

That will only add countless tragedies, and will only make the Dharma Destroying Society suffer more criticism and hostility among the people.

It can be said that from the very beginning, I and others believed in the wrong person and went the wrong way!

Feeling the weakening of the other party's struggling strength, Sun Ning also relaxed his grip on him, and continued: "I know that you want to eliminate harm for the people of Hangzhou, but your way is completely wrong. What you do will not only not make people see the harm of Buddhism, but will make them more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"Also, you are actually just a tool used by the Xie family, if I hadn't made a move, their plan would have succeeded, and then they could have found another group of monks to rebuild Yunlin Temple, but you have all died in that fire, and nothing can be changed.

"So it seems that I saved you not once, but twice!

"Now, do you really want to take revenge and attack me, the benefactor who saved you twice?"

As he spoke, Sun Ning completely let go of the other party.

But Gu Yaohua's whole person didn't move, and he was completely stunned.

After a while, like a deflated ball, he slid against the wall and sat down: "You are right, all this is my fault, I believe in the wrong person, and I have led the brothers to a dead end......"
