Chapter 22

It's gone... Qi Baizi didn't come back for a while, but he soon understood: "You..." want to ask him if he is really willing? But when the words came to his mouth, he felt like he was in a position again. Li Shangpu Baicaotang is too late to fall into the crown, and now it will only be twenty and three, and it is completely possible to rebuild Qiancaotang and Wancaotang.

A ruler sword wearing a hat rowed a small boat from the west of the back river. Li Shang asked Feng Xiao to hand over the 6,000 gold golden ticket.

Qi Baizi already had an idea in his heart, and when he saw the golden ticket, he immediately got up and bowed: "If you don't want human life, then you don't need to hang a plaque." He was also frank, "If Dr. Li trusts the old man, everything can be handed over to the Absolute Evil Building." Jueshalou must do things decently, and leave enough time for you to take time out of the Baicaotang. ”

Li Shang was careless: "Whatever you want, I just want the result." ”

"You'll be satisfied." Juesha Lou also wanted to eat and drink spicy food, Qi Baizi took the golden ticket, waved his sleeves, and the lights in the building went out.

When the ruler sword was about to get under the window, Li Shang said goodbye, and led the wind out of the chess room with a smile. When they went down to the back river, just as the boat was passing by, the two of them stepped on the water and got into the boat, and bent down to enter the cabin.

The breeze is gentle and gentle. The ruler sword standing at the tail of the boat picked up a small stool with his feet, sat down and paddled: "Lord, do you remember the girl we rescued at the bottom of the Huai Valley?" ”

"Something's wrong?" Li Shang took the tea handed by Feng Xiao.

"I just got the news that Lang Yue'an and his party took her to Luyang and was attacked, and it was Tantra." The ruler sword said in a low voice: "After Shannian that old nun injured Datai, he couldn't do it himself, so he poured all his strength into the girl. ”

Li Shang didn't seem surprised at all, took a sip of warm tea, and said, "When did Shannian become so powerful that he could seriously injure Datai?" ”

"It was said that the girl helped to block it, and it was only after dividing the god of Datai that the good thoughts were successful." Qi Jian pouted: "I don't know who came out of these?" It's like seeing it with your own eyes, it's quite mysterious anyway. ”

"Datai recites scriptures, but he is not a vegetarian." Li Shang sneered lightly: "An ordinary woman dares to do anything bad to him, can she escape his cloud-breaking palm?" Helped block it, how to block it? Blocked the life of good thoughts? ”

Feng Xiao frowned: "I was at the bottom of the Huai Valley before, and I had suspicions. Now it doesn't seem to be a lot of heart. ”

"When I gave her the pulse, I looked at her skin and hands, and made sure that she had been immersed in the water for no less than three hours." Li Shang lowered her eyelashes: "After she woke up, she looked at her eyes, as well as the action of draining ascites and the amount of water discharged, knowing that this person is not only well versed in swimming but also holding his breath." ”

Qi Jian was worried: "That woman was thrown by you to Langyuean, and Rongyuean won't blame us, right?" ”

Feng Xiao glanced at the stupid big one: "Is it simple to make the moon hermitage, didn't you look at the eyes of Shannian and the girl?" Since the beginning of the previous year, several old nuns in the Langyue Nunnery have accepted lay disciples one after another. You play with them when they take it? ”

As for the power of good thoughts... Li Shang's eyes appeared in front of him the picture of him using his strength to force the poison that night, and he took a few breaths and exhaled lightly. I don't know where she ran, I don't know why her true qi is going backwards? There are eight veins in the strange meridians, and the Du pulse is not passable, and there are seventy-two acupoints that are dull. Although these seventy-two acupuncture points are not critical, they are also fatal in numbness.

"Let's go to Fansey."

"Ahh ”

"What are you doing with so much, you ask?" Feng Xiao glanced at the lord and looked at the small ruler, worried. The eldest guy, why is he not enlightened at all? The Lord stayed with a girl at the bottom of the Valley of the Arms all night, and fortunately he received the wedding dress, do you think they are innocent?

Now that the Bai family's gang of ghost animals have been explained to the Absolute Evil Building, why can the Lord run to Fan Xicheng?

Xin Shansi got up early in the morning and sent the pen and ink downstairs to the shopkeeper. Jiang Ping is not far from Fan Xicheng, but it is not close. She gave a fee of thirty wen, and wrapped it together with the stone dai and fat powder she bought yesterday.

"Then please."

"Don't worry, my uncle often goes to Tanzhou City, and he must pass through Fanxi and Linqi, and he will definitely deliver things." It's not been a peaceful year, and life is difficult. Running two legs and earning some chews, what a good thing! The shopkeeper carefully put away the small cloth bag.

After using a large bowl of noodle soup, Xin Shansi went out of the inn to the north of the city. After walking for more than half an hour, I reached the ground. I asked people and touched the bull market. The set was crowded and crowded, and the sour and rancid smell drilled into her nostrils, stabbing her belly and vomiting in her mouth.

It is said to be a bull market, but in fact, there are the least cattle sellers. There are donkeys and horses, but there are only a few. There are only two baskets of piglets, and most of them sell chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits. Guarding the money bag, he squeezed to the side of the donkey seller. A chestnut donkey, looking at the neck, legs, back, ears, and nose, is about two years old.

There were about twenty of them. The seller broke the donkey's mouth: "Look at the mouth, my donkey is two months and two years old, just in time." Then he asked them to look at the donkey's legs, "Very strong, spread out, and I will pat it and let it walk you around." ”

"It's a good donkey, but it's too expensive." An old man with his hands behind his back hung a cloth bag from his waist: "In the summer of last year, a strong cow was sold for nine taels and one yuan. You actually want eight taels of silver? Six, two, six dollars is about the same. You nod your head, and I'll take the donkey. ”

The seller was unwilling: "Why are you embarrassed old man?" In the previous Ertongzi family in our village, a five-year-old donkey was sold for seven taels and three yuan. If you want to add another silver tael, don't be fooled here. ”

Xin Shansi glanced at the old man, leaned over to the seller, and whispered, "Seven taels or six dollars, right?" Give me this donkey. ”

The seller turned around, saw that it was a little girl, and hesitated: "No kidding." ”

"It's about ten taels of silver, don't dare to laugh. My father met an acquaintance, and he talked about it..."Xin Shansi bowed his chin to a group of people who bought and sold horses: "He has seen it with you before, but he didn't bring enough silver, and he hurriedly took it back and was afraid that he wouldn't be able to catch up." This is not... Look, you didn't sell, let me buy it. "Pay for the money.

The old man who had been bargaining before was unhappy, his face was long, and he only glanced at the circle where the horses were sold, all of them were strong and powerful, and they didn't dare to attack, so he snorted, turned around and squeezed out.

After the silver was knotted, Xin Shansi took the reins: "It's all scattered, it's all scattered..." The crowd loosened, and she led the donkey to the side where the horse was sold. Coincidentally, the stall selling board cars is right there.

The board car costs one or two taels of silver with good wood, and she looked at the axles and wheels, and it was indeed worth it. and he added five pieces of silver, and added a shed. When he pulled the donkey and dragged the longboard cart with the carport according to the carport out of the market, the sky was in the middle of the day. After a fresh breath, I went to the rice grain shop to take a look.

Firewood, rice, oil and salt are indispensable in life, and now she has a donkey cart, which can be bought with her. There is also cotton, and every day it is cold, and she has to make at least two quilts.

Xin Shansimo calculated, and bought it all in bits and pieces, so why did he need five or six taels of silver. Hey, plus the money I just bought a donkey and a car, the little money that was drawn from the basket handlebar is gone. Think about your own family background... I can't help sighing, money is really not spent.

Raising her eyes to look at the white clouds floating in the sky, she slurped, and looked at the road ahead. The Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Luohe City has to be disposed of. The Xin family seems to have an enemy, called... It's called Ghost Mountain Old Eyebrow... Right? I wonder if Lao Mei is interested in Zhuangzi?

When she arrived at the grain store, she saw that the milled rice cost eight wen a catty, so she turned her head and left, it was too expensive. I bought a big meat bun along the street and went back to the inn. Pack up your things on the donkey cart, check out and drive the donkey west.

After leaving Jiangping and walking for a while, seeing that there was no one on the road, Xin Shansi pulled over the donkey cart, bent over and grabbed a handful of mud and arched it into the carport. It didn't take long for a gray-headed toiling woman with an old cloth towel on her head and a little lump on her back came out, and continued on her way with the reins.

She arrived at the northern outskirts of Luohe City, and it was noon the next day. At this time, there was already a quarrel in the Xiyun Zen room of the Lane Moon Nunnery on Eagle Head Mountain in the north of Fan Xicheng.

The two little Ni hugged Tong Xin, who had broken his right arm, and persuaded him. Tong Xin's eyes were red and swollen, and he almost wanted to rush up and beat the slut who was kneeling beside the master's corpse, and scolded hysterically: "My master has passed on all his life's learning to you, what's wrong with asking you to shave your face?" What do you say, six roots are not finished... You make it clear to me..."

The head of the moon hermitage, Mrs. Wuhua is standing on the side. She looked at the senior sister whose face was clean, and she didn't understand how things had come to this point?

Tan Siyu's tears dripped down and cried silently.

Tong Xin grabbed the little junior sister who was holding her left arm, and went up to scratch Tan Siyu: "You are still wronged..."

Yi also stopped with extremely sad kindness, Tong Xin couldn't hold back for a while, and cried: "Senior uncle, the disciple master and senior sister are dead... If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have left Lu Yang at all... It's her, she's her, she's a disaster..."

Is it strange to talk about Siyu? Kindness doesn't want to deceive her heart, she blames.

Tan Siyu said in a dumb voice: "I'm just the daughter of an ordinary people's family, what I think about on weekdays is how to take care of my mother, and when I get married and have children, I have never longed for any chivalrous deeds." Master Zen is so kind to me that I dare not forget. But..."

She couldn't seem to figure it out, "Why do you have to shave my face?" He looked up at Wuhua and cried, "What she gave is a blessing to you, but it is a curse to me." I don't want it, I just want to live a dull life... Master Shannian didn't give me a choice, and you didn't consider my wishes... I have a family and a mother, is it wrong not to cut my hair for a nun? Why do you want to force me..."

Chapter 23

"Shut up..."Tong Xin couldn't see the slut's coy behavior, and he couldn't tear her to pieces, so he wanted to rush up again despite his uncle's obstruction.

Xu Shanyi was also tired, and his hand was weak. Tong Xin, who rushed over smoothly, her bloodshot eyes were full of resentment, and she grabbed Tan Siyu's hair and pulled her up forcefully: "You are not worthy of kneeling to my master." ”

"Ahh

Tong Xin pushed the person out of the foot, and raised his left palm luck: "Don't you want to, I'll help you abolish it now." ”

Hearing this, Tan Siyu, who was curled up with his head in his hands due to scalp pain, had his eyes cloudy. When the palm wind hit, she "instinctively" pushed Tongxin with all her might. Tong Xinli gathered in his left hand, and he was injured again, his lower disc was unstable, and the whole person hit backwards.

Wuhua, who had been silent for a long time, took a turn of steps and came to the back of Tongxin to stabilize the person.

Xiyun Zen Room was silent, and Tan Siyu looked at Tong Xin, who was almost pushed away by her, in astonishment, as if she couldn't believe that she had such strength: "Yes... I'm sorry. His open hands trembled, "How could it be... It's going to be like this, I'm sorry...", his legs went limp, he knelt down again, his hands covered his face, tears oozed from his fingers, and a suppressed cry sounded.

Tong Xin's heart couldn't get out of the depression that made her face swelled red, she opened her mouth and choked, tears mixed with the mucus flowing out of the corners of her mouth, dripping down, her head slowly lowered, looking at her broken right arm. The blood soaked through the bandaged white cotton, dazzling... It's ironic.

Wuhua let go of Tongxin and let out a long breath: "It is difficult to make the moon nunnery not strong, and the girl does not want to enter the Buddhist gate, so please go down the mountain immediately." There is still a way to do something in the nunnery, and I won't be far away when I wait. ”

No one objected, but Tan Siyu knelt for a long time. Tong Xin didn't want to face her anymore, turned around, walked towards the golden statue of the Bodhisattva enshrined, slowly knelt down, looked at it, and asked the Bodhisattva with his heart, "In life, what is good and what is evil?" When it comes to cause and effect, is there really a reward for good and evil? ”

No one paid attention, Tan Siyu cried for a while, and finally put down his hand little by little, got up on the ground, barely supported his paralyzed body, moved his feet to face Shannian's corpse, knelt down, and knocked nine times. After knocking, he looked at the kindness that was staring at her, and knocked again.

"The grace of saving lives cannot be repaid. Whatever I want to burp... It is a fact that he is unwilling to inherit the power of the good teacher. The gods and Buddhas are above, Tan Siyu swears, in the future... If there is a need for the moon hermitage, I cannot refuse to define it. ”

What a cunning girl! said that it was duty-bound, but he didn't say that he would go all out to repay his life, close his eyes with kindness, and put his hand on his chest: "Amitabha." ”

"Lane Yue Nunnery will not ask you..."Wuhua looked coldly: "Since you admit that you have inherited the skills of the senior sister of this seat, then this seat also wants to warn you, if you rely on the skills of the senior sister of this seat to do evil outside, I will do my best to make the moon hermitage... Clean up the portal. ”

Tan Siyu was furious in her heart, these sisters-in-law are really annoying.

"It's quiet and it's winter," Wuhua turned around, his back to the door.

The two little nuns walked out: "The disciple is here,"

"Send the girl out of the nunnery."

"Yes."

Tan Siyu was almost invited out of the Yue'an, and she went down to Eagle Head Mountain "lost her soul", and she didn't care if anyone was staring at her, she did the whole play, collapsed on the ground and cried bitterly, showing her dazedness and grievances to the fullest.

It's just a little bit of skill that inherited good thoughts, and Langyuean actually wants her to work hard for the rest of her life, where does the face come from? She wants to get along with Langyue'an, but those sisters-in-law don't know what to do. I want her to shave... Not to mention that she didn't have the heart to become a monk and serve the Buddha, even if she did, she would cut her hair in the West Folong Temple of the Great Mengguo Temple.

In the Xiyun Zen room, Wuhua heard that Tan Siyu was crying at the bottom of the mountain, so he couldn't help frowning, and turned to the right: "Second Senior Sister Lao will tell me again about the attack from the beginning." ”

"Amitabha!" Sighing kindly, this time she started from Huai Valley, in great detail: "After Dr. Li handed her over to Senior Sister, she went out of the valley... When I left Hongdai Valley, I wanted to go back the way I came, but Tan Siyu begged bitterly, saying that she hadn't returned for many days, and her mother must be very anxious... Yixiao, who was exploring the way, reported that Datai was coming to the post station, and my senior sister and I dispelled the idea of staying at the post station..."

Listening to the second senior sister's eloquent words, Wuhua looked for suspicions.

"We were not the only ones at the City God Temple that night, there was also a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl who stayed overnight." "That girl is not an ordinary person, her breath is very light, and she is not very willing to deal with people. Tan Siyu talked a few times, but no one paid attention to it, and Wu Zi started to fight with water and pastries. Her hand is very fast, and my sister and I have been paying attention.

In the middle of the night, Tan Siyu coughed and vomited blood, so the senior sister ordered to leave and find another place... We left one of us to keep an eye on the girl, and the girl didn't leave the temple for an hour..."

After listening, Wuhua pondered for a moment and asked, "Second Senior Sister, could that girl be a member of Tantra?" ”

Kindness thought about this and shook his head: "I don't see it. Her eyes were clear, and she didn't seem to care about anything. The body is very clean, sitting on a side of the ground and doing his own thing calmly, like an outsider. If we don't provoke such a Lord, how can we get into her eyes? ”

"What about Siyu?" Wuhua stroked the Buddhist beads wrapped around his wrist.

"She?" Kindness: "Tan Siyu just said that Senior Sister didn't give her a choice, this... No way. Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, and pays attention to your feelings and wishes. Senior Sister must have asked her before the initiation. Besides..."

Wuhua continued: "Senior sister should not be able to understand the method of empowerment. "Empowerment is not something that ordinary people can perform, and the strength of the inner force alone is estimated to be something that can only be achieved by a master in retreat.

Twisting the Buddha beads with kindness: "Let's pay attention, whether it is a traitor or a good, sooner or later there will be a conclusion." ”

Xin Shansi had lunch at a food stall on the side of the official road in the northern suburbs of Luohe City, and she was not in a hurry to go into the city to find a Chinese person. She drove the donkey east, intending to make a detour first and listen to the wind. Zhuangzi in the eastern suburbs is where she lived with her mother for four years.

Xin Liangyou knows her dependence and affection for her mother, and she will definitely wait for someone here. She had to figure out the situation before deciding what to do. After walking for a long time, he saw a woman bent over by the weight of the basket, and staggered forward with a stick in her right hand. She passed by and looked back at people, mainly by looking at faces.

The woman looked up, smiled at her, and did not ask for a ride.

Xin Shansi pulled the reins, let the donkey slow down, and suppressed her voice: "Sister, where are you going?" I see your basket is quite heavy, why don't you let me go? ”

"Won't it be too much trouble?" The woman's face was small, thin and thin, but her cheeks were not sunken. His eyes are also clear, and he speaks with a smile. The feet are big and the hands are rough, and at a glance, you can see that you are used to doing the work.

Stopping the donkey, Xin Shansi walked to the back of the car: "It's not troublesome, it's just a matter of the way." He pushed the loose rag head inside, "You put it here." ”

"That's so thankful." The woman carefully squatted down, unloaded the basket, breathed a sigh of relief, pulled her sleeves to wipe the sweat, got up and took out a gray cloth towel, "I don't feel heavy when I just carry it, and my shoulders don't seem to be my own after walking for a long time." ”

Seeing her spread the cloth towel on the board, the corners of Xin Shansi's mouth hooked slightly, and she lifted the back basket full of ears of grain...

"I'll come, I'll come." The woman hurriedly took over.

Put the basket away, and the two drove the donkey together.

"Big sister, which one are you?"

Xin Shansi smiled back: "Jiang Ping's over there." ”
