"Don't be in a hurry, Ah Ran, you speak slowly"

The abbot said,

"Ah Kun, Ah Jun, you quickly help Ah Ran to the table"

The abbot said to the two monks next to him,

The two monks named Ah Kun and Ah Jun took the initiative to step forward at this time and helped the monk Ah Ran who pushed the door in just now to the table and chair at the door, Ah Ran sat on the chair, and then carried the kettle on the table to fill the cup next to him with a glass of water, after pouring the water, he directly raised his glass and drank it all, and then poured another glass of water, and drank it all in the same ......

After drinking three glasses of water in a row, Ah Ran looked at the abbot and his disciples and said unhurriedly:

"Abbot, senior brothers, no, there are a lot of soldiers outside, each of them is armed with spears and guns, and they are holding shields, and now they are surrounding our Xuanding Temple, and the water in the enclosure is impassable... The leader of their group of soldiers told me to go and call the abbot of our monastery now, and they also surrounded our monastery with shields, and they seemed to be unkind."

"What are they doing here?"

"It's strange, our monastery didn't provoke them."

"They actually brought troops when they came, so does that mean that there is someone they are looking for in our monastery?"

"You say, could it be that the benefactor lying in front of us is the person he is looking for?"

……

At this time, the surrounding monks talked one after another.

"Abbot, don't go out, I'll meet them."

At this time, a monk next to the abbot, who is also the leader of their monastery, said.

At this time, the abbot looked at Liu Ding, who was lying on the bed in front of him, looked at everyone again, and then said:

"Ah Kun, Ah Jun"

"To"

The two monks who helped Ah Ran to the table just now replied.

"You two stay and take care of this benefactor in front of you"

"Yes"

"Yes"

The two monks replied.

"Everyone else should go out with me now"

Then the abbot said to the others,

"Yes"

So, everyone in the room followed the abbot out and went out...

At the gate of the monastery, the group of soldiers were holding shields at the door, that is, under the long steps at the entrance of the monastery, and at the same time, they also inserted spears and spears in their shields, facing the monastery and the monks at the steps.

At the steps of the door, all the monks in the temple were holding long sticks at this time, and one end of the stick was also aimed at the group of soldiers below the steps, forming a mutual eye.

At this time, the abbot walked out of the monastery with all the monks of his disciples, and when he reached the steps, after the abbot saw this scene, he also ordered all the monks at the steps to put away their sticks, during which all the monks were reluctant,

At this time, a monk asked the abbot:

"Master, they, they"

"Receive"

The abbot commanded in an angry tone,

Looking at the abbot's angry tone, all the monks put away their sticks and stood...

And the leader of the soldiers at the foot of the stairs, when he saw that the monks had put away their sticks, ordered his soldiers to put away their spears and shields...

After seeing that the soldiers had put away their shields and spears, the abbot took two steps forward, looked at the leader of the soldiers, and said:

"Amitabha"

The leader also said:

"Amitabha"

After reciprocal order, the leader of the soldiers looked at the abbot and said:

"Abbot, what about us, we won't come here to look for trouble, at the same time, we all understand the unique status of the sacred place here, we have come here to ask the abbot for something, as long as this is done, I and the others will leave immediately, and compensate you and the disciples to the abbot."

"Amitabha"

The abbot replied again.

"So, Abbot, you are also willing to help us"

"Amitabha"

"Okay, abbot, I ask you? Is there anyone else hiding in your monastery, especially a seriously wounded young man who floated from the ditch, I tell you, this person is the same kind of Chu traitor, this person is extremely dangerous, and for the sake of our people, and for the sake of your monastery, please return him to me, abbot."

The leader of the soldiers said,

"Amitabha, donor, this temple is never open to the public, and there are no other outsiders here, this temple has always eaten fasting and chanted Buddha to purify sentient beings, and please donor, please go back."

The abbot replied,

Hearing this, the leader of the soldiers became angry at this time, and then said angrily:

"Abbot, I advise you not to be ignorant, I also told you that someone has already reported to us, saying that you are hiding traitors and trying to rebel"

At this time, the group of monks behind the abbot raised their sticks at the same time, and the heads of the sticks rushed towards the group of soldiers and took a step forward, and the soldiers under the steps also picked up their shields again to block the front, and stretched their spears forward...

The abbot and the leader of the soldiers looked at each other, and the leader of the soldiers laughed loudly after looking at the wooden sticks of the monks...

"Haha~Haha~"

At this time, when the monks with sticks wanted to step forward again, they were stopped by the abbot...

And the soldier with the shield and the spear was about to step forward, but he was also stopped by the leader.

At this time, the leader stepped forward and said to the abbot:

"Abbot, presumably you and your temple disciples don't want to be accused of being a traitor, and if that's the case, your Buddha will definitely not agree."

"I know that your monastery has always been to help sentient beings and help the poor and do good deeds for the people, but the person you rescued this time is a traitor, and after you save him, he will bring danger to our race, if our race is gone, what is there in your temple..."

"Today, Lord Ben gave you and your temple a chance, that is, Lord Ben brought someone to search for it, caught that person, we evacuated, today this incident has never happened to us, and at the same time I will report to the king, it is you and your temple to assist meritorious, you can rest assured, Lord Ben will never let his subordinates destroy your temple a penny, if there is damage, Lord Ben will pay double compensation, out of his own pocket"

"In the same way, if we go in and don't catch anyone, we don't find anyone, we will also withdraw, and if we cause harm to your temple, we will also compensate twice, and this master will pay out of his own pocket."

After speaking, he saw that the abbot was still standing still in place, and the leader said:

"Abbot, I advise you not to know what to do, look at these soldiers and horses I brought today, even if you can't completely destroy your temple, it can almost destroy all your temples."

At this time, the monks behind the abbot stepped forward again with sticks, but were stopped by the abbot again, and then said:

"Amitabha, donor, please"

As he spoke, he also made a gesture of reaching out and "please".

"Haha~Haha"

The leader smiled at this time, then took out a few taels of silver from his pocket, threw them in front of the abbot, and then said:

"Okay, good, you're interested in being an abbot"

As he spoke, he walked in front of the abbot, and then touched the abbot's face with his hand, but when the monk in the back wanted to step forward with a stick, he was stopped by the abbot again, and the leader looked at the abbot and said:

"Abbot, don't worry, I know that we have broken into your temple rashly to commit a taboo on the Buddha, but we can't help it, if the thief of Chu does not die for a day, our race will not be at peace for a day, if this matter is known by your Buddha, presumably your Buddha will also support it."

Then he said to all the soldiers behind him:

"All the brothers, listen to me, this was originally a holy place for the Buddha, but now that a traitor is entrenched in it, shall we agree?"

"Don't say yes"

"Don't say yes"

"Don't promise, don't promise, don't promise..."

The soldiers at the foot of the stairs shouted loudly.

"And today, the abbot and the monks in the monastery also allow us to enter, so what are we going to do when we go in?"

"Catch the traitor, catch the traitor............"

At this moment, the soldiers at the bottom of the stairs shouted again.

"Okay, very good, brothers, listen to me, we must be careful when we go in, we must be careful and careful, we can't destroy the bricks and tiles of other people's temples, tell me, can you do it"

"Yes, yes, yes..."

At this time, the soldiers in the audience shouted again.

At this time, the leader faced the abbot and said:

"Then, Abbot, please give way."

At this time, the monks behind him once again picked up the sticks to block the door of the temple, and the monk closest to the abbot said to the abbot:

"Abbot, we can't let it"

And another monk also stood up at this time and said:

"Yes, Abbot, you can't let them in"

"Abbot, can't let it"

"Abbot, let them step over our bodies"

"Abbot, we guard the temple"

……

At this time, the monks said in unison.

At this time, the abbot turned to the monks behind him and said:

"Let's Road"

After hearing the abbot's words, the monks reluctantly got out of the way and walked to both sides of the gate.

When the leader saw this, he said to the abbot in front of him:

"Well, thank you, Abbot."

Then he shouted to the soldiers below:

"Let's go, let's go in and catch the traitor"

So, the leader went into the house.

As the leader walked into the temple, all the soldiers behind him walked into the temple one by one...

Around the abbot, a monk whispered to the abbot:

"Master, do you want me to go to the donor's room where the young man is now, let the donor hide, my legs are running fast, if the young donor is found by these animals, it will also implicate our monastery."

And another monk also whispered to the abbot at this time:

"Master, do you want me to go to the temple and get some explosives to delay time, so that the young donor can hide it quickly, once it is discovered, the life of the young donor will be gone, and then our temple will also be implicated in the crime of complicity."

"Don't go"

The abbot said,

"Whether the donor is dead or alive, it has to be left to fate, Amitabha"

The abbot spoke, and then he made a gesture and stood where he was.

In the room where Liu Ding lay on the bed,

The two monks sat next to Liu Ding, chatting with Liu Ding, talking and laughing...

Suddenly, they clearly felt that there was movement outside, as if someone had come to search.

"Senior brother, you accompany this Liu Shizhu, I'll go over and have a look now"

The monk named Ah Kun said,

"Okay, go ahead, be careful not to cause any movement"

Another senior brother named Ah Jun said to him.

So, the monk named Ah Kun cautiously walked to the door of the room, and through the crack in the door, he saw a group of soldiers with shields in their left hands and spears in their right hands searching outside, and they were immediately here.

After seeing this scene, the monk named Ah Kun cautiously came to the bed again, and showed a frightened look, and said to the two people in front of him:

"Oh no, a large number of soldiers have broken into the monastery, as if they were searching for something, and they are all armed with weapons."

Liu Ding, who heard this, panicked at this time.

The two monks looked at Liu Ding lying on the bed, and the monk named Ah Jun then said to Ah Kun's monk:

"Quick, let's quickly hide Lord Liu first"

"Hmm"

The monk named Ah Kun replied.

Then the two monks looked inside the room, and there was nothing left except a table, a few chairs, and a simple bookcase... Then he looked at the bed and under the bed, and the monk named Ah Kun said:

"Quick, let's hide Liu Shizhu under the bed."

"Hmm"

So, the two monks walked to the side of the bed and said to Liu Ding, who was lying on the bed:

"Master Liu, there are soldiers searching outside, I don't know what to search, but we must not let the soldiers find out that there are other people in our temple, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble, you are like this, you first hide under the bed and be wronged, and after their soldiers leave, you will come out again"

Liu Ding looked at the two monks at this time, and then nodded:

"Hmm"

So, one monk lay under the bed at this time and took out the debris under the bed, while the other monk put aside the debris that the monk had taken out...

After two or three rounds of miscellaneous items, the two monks both looked at the space under the bed, nodded to each other and said:

"Well, good"

So, the two of them quickly stood up and looked at Liu Ding, and a monk said:

"Master Liu, when you get under the bed, don't make a sound."

Another monk also said to him:

"Master Liu, I'll just wronged you for a while, and I'll just wait for their group of damned soldiers to leave."

"Hmm"

Liu Ding, who was lying on the bed, nodded and replied.

"Fast"

"Hmm"

So, the two monks directly lifted Liu Ding, who was lying on the bed, and put it in the space under the bed, and then a monk also took the sundries taken out from under the bed and threw it at Liu Ding, who was hiding under the bed...

Although Liu Ding, who was smashed and knocked over, was in pain, in order to cooperate, he could only endure it...

After the two monks hid Liu Ding, one monk said to the other:

"Why don't we get back to bed and see if we can get by, if only the soldiers came and we slept tightly."

"Yes, remember to snee"

Another monk said.

"Good"

"Yes, remember to put a sign on the door that you can't enter"

A monk said,

"What do you write then?"

Another monk asked,

"Well, you can write whatever you want, as long as you can fool around."

"Then, then I'll write about the punishment forbidden place of the temple, and you can't enter it."

"Well, okay, then I'll go to bed first"

"You wait for me, I'm going to write fast"

At this time, a monk walked to the table, wrote the words with a brush and paper on the table, and threw them on the ground outside through the crack in the door.

Then he walked with the monk to the bedside.

So, the two monks quickly took off their shoes at this time, and then went to bed and began to pretend to sleep...

The soldiers, who had searched the temple but had not found it, had now gone to the head of the temple, who was sitting on a chair in the temple's dining room and eating the roasted sweet potatoes in the temple.

"Report, my lord, I searched the public hall of the monastery, and I also checked every corner and found no Tibetans."

A soldier stepped forward and said to the leader, who was sitting in his seat and eating roasted sweet potatoes,

"Report, my lord, I searched the thatched pits and washrooms of the monastery, and found no Tibetans."

Another soldier also stepped forward and said,

"Report, my lord......"

………

After several soldiers reported that they had not found any place to hide the Tibetans, the leader, who was sitting on a chair and eating a roasted sweet potato, said:

"Have you checked all of them, are there any leaks?"

"Report to the lord, we have checked all of them clearly, except for one place that has not been checked, we have checked them all clearly"

The soldier replied.

At this time, the leader who was eating the roasted sweet potato was not calm for a moment, put down the roasted sweet potato in his hand that had not been eaten yet, and then looked at everyone and asked:

"Where?"

A soldier says:

"Report, my lord, that place is a room, say it's not big, it's not big, it's not big, but the door of that room is closed, and at the same time, there is a piece of paper on the ground at the door of that room, which says (The forbidden place for the punishment of the temple, you can't enter) I thought, it turned out to be the forbidden place of the temple, that is where the bad people in their temple stay, we don't need to go in, so we didn't check"

When he heard this, the leader squeezed the roasted sweet potato in his soft hand angrily, and then said to the soldier:

"Do I think you're a pig?"

After saying that, he threw the sweet potato that was like mud in his hand into the soldier's face.

Then he said:

"Let's go, let's go hunt down the thief"
