Chapter 35: The Feast of the Hung Gate
Outside the pavilion, he showed an anxious look on his face, walked around, sat still, and from time to time had to look at the small courtyard not far away, and lowered his head again.
"Damn, why hasn't Five Fingers come back yet, it's already past the agreed time, could it be that something happened?" Quit Jie's uncertain face flashed a trace of worry, and muttered to himself.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps in the distance, and he was shocked: "Was it discovered?" There was no time for him to think, so he immediately made a decision, and jumped to the top of the pavilion with a "hmph", and the curved dragon head just blocked his body.
"Quick, Lan Feng. It's been more than the time we agreed, and I'm afraid I'm afraid I've been waiting for us for a long time. The more time passes, the more likely it is to change......"
"Master, the gazebo in front of you is the place you agreed upon, right?"
As soon as the words fell, Jie Jue also jumped down from the top of the pavilion and said to the five fingers: "I thought you were discovered, and it was the abbot's pursuers coming." You're fine, but I'm worried about death. ”
"Senior brother, then let's go first? There is still a period of time before the master's deadline, and during this period, Senior Brother Lao, you will take care of his old man. ”
"Your business is my business, and he is my master. Go, remember to be careful on the road, don't take it lightly, and ......" After speaking, he looked at Lan Feng, but he wanted to stop talking. I had to shake my head helplessly, turned around and was about to leave.
"Five Fingers, since you came, you didn't take care of me in advance, and now you are still in a hurry to leave, is there still me in your heart?" A reproachful word came from a distance.
The precept who was about to leave heard this voice, and the whole thing froze there, and the five-fingered Zen master looked at the person in front of him who was gradually approaching him with a face full of disbelief.
"Hehe, quit, you're so bold. The abbot looked at the stalemate playfully, and looked at each other coldly.
"Abbot, the five fingers are also a last resort. I hurriedly received a message from the senior brother that the master was critically ill, so I hurried to come and heard that the abbot was in retreat, so I didn't bother. I never thought that you would leave the customs in advance, so there was a misunderstanding today. ”
"You're wishing I didn't get out, right?"
"Five fingers don't dare. ”
"Hmph, you don't pretend to me, since I have touched it, let me, the abbot, treat you well, so as not to be laughed at by the world for being unkind. The abbot looked at the five-fingered Zen master and said with a smile. There is no majesty just now, as if it is catching up with old friends.
"Abbot, it's not too early. It's better to retire first, and please rest early. Next time, next time, the five fingers will personally go to make amends to the abbot. After speaking, he was going to lead Lan Feng away.
"Wait, Five Fingers, you just don't give me face when you say that, how can you let me establish my prestige among the disciples in the future? ”
"This ......" Five Fingers glanced at the embarrassed look on his face not far away, and then turned his head to look at the disciples who surrounded them. He knew that if he resigned, it was likely that the abbot would give the order to do it, and he and Lan Feng would be here one after another, and they would even be involved in abstaining from the senior brother and master.
After weighing it again and again, Five Fingers shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Since the abbot is gracious, Five Fingers has no choice but to be respectful and obey his fate." ”
"It's pretty much the same, go, follow me to the inner sanctum, and let the little doll come with you. After listening to the words of the five fingers, the abbot laughed, and when he turned around, he didn't forget to glance at Lan Feng, not knowing what he was thinking about.
After watching the abbot gradually move away, after leaving a distance, he stepped forward and asked cautiously: "Five fingers, do you really want to go?" You should know the abbot's character, I am afraid that he will not be good for you at that time. ”
"There's no way, I have to send it. It is clear that our actions were exposed, although it is not known how they were leaked. ”
"This is a feast. ”
"Don't worry, brother. I have my own countermeasures, and the abbot doesn't dare to do anything to me. It's really not good, I will desperately protect Lan Feng when necessary, his target may be him. If something happens to me, the next thing will depend on you to protect him and the master. ”
After hearing this, he held the arm of the five fingers tightly, and said earnestly: "Promise Senior Brother, I must come back alive......"
