Chapter 268: Catching Up the Mountain
Arathi was startled, looked up at Jia Chu, who only showed half of his face, and after glancing at each other, he didn't feel the hostility of the other party, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
In addition, Su Rui was also beside him, so he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Hanshan Temple.
"Childe and Master Hua have something to do and go to Hanshan Temple."
"What are you doing at Hanshan Temple so late?"
Su Rui knows the intimate relationship between the Zhizhen Daoist and Hua Yi, but he also knows Hua Yi's temperament, he is the kind of person who can not move without moving.
took Ning Wuxian up the mountain together, could it be that the two of them were together and discovered new herbs?
Arathi overheard a few words about the reason for going to Hanshan Temple.
But he told Su Rui truthfully, but he was afraid that it would make people think that he, a flower farmer, would have too long ears and be easily suspicious, so he could only shake his head and reply: "I don't know, it's just that they seem to be in a hurry, and it should be an important matter." ”
"They ......"
"When will they be back?"
Jia Chu snatched Su Rui's sentence and asked the key question.
After staying in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion for a while, he did not rest, but was inquiring about the news.
Knowing that the little marquis was in this Jinling City, not to mention making enemies everywhere, and suddenly he was so nervous that he couldn't even pay the room fee, and then contacted the letter sent by the little marquis, he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Su Rui glanced at Jia Chu, who was struggling to speak, and secretly said: The people in the Jin Palace's mansion really don't understand the rules.
Seeing that Alati asked him with his eyes whether he should answer, he nodded slightly, and then Arati said vaguely: "It should be back after eating on the mountain, as if it means that I have to enter the mountain in the morning, I don't know anything else, it's dark, I should move the tobacco flower pot into the flower room, and the adults say goodbye." ”
When A first saw that Arati seemed to be concealing, he stretched out his hand to arrest the man.
Su Zhou had already taken the lead and stopped between Arati and Jia Chu.
Jia Chu's five claws grabbed Su Zhou's shoulder like iron tongs, Su Zhou frowned slightly, but he didn't say a word, just stared at Jia Chu coldly.
Until, Su Rui snorted lightly: "If the guards of the Jin Palace's Mansion feel that the speed at which you find Anhou by yourself is faster than the speed at which the official takes you to find it, then the official will assign you a few people, listen to your dispatch, and you can do it at your own convenience?" ”
Not good.
Jia Chu retracted his arm unwillingly, and looked around, looking for the location of Hanshan Temple.
"Over there, this official will accompany you up the mountain, otherwise, Master Hua will not want to say a word to you when he sees your attitude."
In fact, looking at Jia Chu's rude attitude towards Alathi, Su Rui reminded Zhou An's attitude towards Ning Wuxian.
He regretted that he was too busy with this kind of business.
But after all, he is the assassin of Jiangnan Province, and Zhou An is not an ordinary person, he disappeared in the area under his jurisdiction, no matter whether the result is good or bad, he must give an explanation to His Majesty.
……
Hanshan Temple.
The abbot was in the living room, and the Zhizhen Taoist was surprised and delighted in the face of the two uninvited guests.
"Ning Shixian, I haven't seen you for many days, your face is full of red light, and you know that good luck is at the head at a glance, but you came to make a wish?"
How can anyone come at night to make a vow?
Ning Wuxiao secretly complained: It is estimated that the abbot of Zhizhen is close to Zhangjiazhuang, and I heard that the ice workshop has recently sold 500,000 taels of ice in three days because of the transportation of a large amount of saltpeter, which is to ask me to donate more money to the God of Wealth.
"Thanks to the abbot and the protection of the gods and Buddhas in this hall, my Ning family's business is indeed thriving, tomorrow, tomorrow I will let people go to the city to exchange for some fine gold, and also paint the gold paint for this missing corner and less paint."
Describe all the missing corners and less paint, and say less than twenty catties of gold.
The Knowing Truth Daoist hurriedly bowed to Ning Wuxian, smiling from ear to ear.
"The story of Lao Ning's poetry is hanging."
You're welcome.
Ning Wuxuan glanced at Hua Yi.
The gold has been given, and the contribution can be mentioned.
He knows that Huayi and Zhizhen Taoist are friends, but the friendship cannot be prostituted in vain, besides, he has to eat, drink and Lazar the Taoist priests in this temple, and the labor of the Zhizhen Taoist is also counted, and the labor of the entire temple is worth adding some sesame oil money.
Hua Yi really didn't plan to use people in vain, he never liked to touch cause and effect, and he also planned to give every Taoist priest a hexagram.
But he didn't expect that Ning Wuxian would take a step ahead of him and not say anything, and the benefits he gave were so affordable that he coaxed the people who knew the truth and couldn't even find the north.
"Brother Xu...... No, the one who knows the truth. ”
As soon as Hua Yi's title came out, the Zhizhen Daoist instantly woke up a lot, and the smile on his face also converged a lot.
I almost forgot that whether it was Huayi or Ning Wuxian, this old and young was by no means a fuel-efficient lamp.
There is definitely a problem with giving him gold in a good manner, and there is nothing to do.
"Master Hua has something to express his opinions, you and I don't have to hide it."
Facing the jokes of the truth-knowers, Hua Yi laughed dryly.
"It's not a cover-up, it's just that I want to ask you for help, but I don't know where to start for a while...... That's it, Ning Shixian, come on. ”
The ball was kicked at Ning Wuxian's feet.
Without saying a word, he hit an upside-down golden hook and shot straight at the goal.
"Master Hua and I are looking for a special herb that can treat dysentery, called Artemisia annua, Master Hua has calculated its approximate location, and there is an urgent shortage of a large number of people to find it, because it is the harvest season recently, it is difficult to find people, so I thought that there are many small masters in the temple who can help."
Ning Wuxian made a gesture to the person who knew the truth.
"I provide three meals a day, and if I can find this herb, it will also be a good deed for the abbot and Hanshan Temple."
Sending gold and eating is the most important thing is to have a good reputation.
There is no reason for anyone to refuse.
In addition, because of Xu Jidao's evaluation of Ning Wuxian, the Zhizhen Daoist originally looked up at him, and nodded in response: "Since it is a good deed, Poor Dao should help the two of you, if there is really a miracle medicine for dysentery, Poor Dao also wants to see it with his own eyes." ”
"Yes, there is, but finding the herb and refining it into a special medicine still needs a side method."
Ning Wuxian found the opportunity and sold it.
When the true Taoist heard this, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "What is the method?" ”
"First of all, ......"
"Abbot, Lord Thorn is here."
Without waiting for Ning Wuxian to finish speaking, the little Taoist Shiliang hurriedly ran in.
When Zhizhen Daoren and Hua Yi heard the news, they looked at each other and were surprised.
"Brother Xu, why did Su Tingshi come up to the mountain at this time? You invited it? ”
"He's busy day by day like a loach in a pool, slippery, and he doesn't have time to come when I invite him, and it's really a hell of a day."
The Knowing Truth began to ponder the reason for Suri's arrival.
Recently, he took advantage of the people of Zhangjiazhuang to open up wasteland, thinking that the number of orphans in the temple was increasing and there was not enough food to eat, so he quietly sent people to reclaim a few pieces of wasteland, and he had not yet had time to register with the government.
Su Rui is a dignified assassin in Jiangnan Province, it is impossible to deal with him for those ownerless barren mountains, and he will be held accountable, right?
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, the two distinguished guests are waiting here, and the poor road goes out to meet him!"
