Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Golden Buddha's Head

This man is tall, about seven feet tall, and he is also dressed in a single coat in late autumn, and he can vaguely see the bulging muscles under the single coat, so it seems that the burden on his back is not too big, in fact, this burden is the size of a small water tank, bulging, I don't know what it contains. The man placed the burden on the table at will, making the table shake slightly, as if it was extremely heavy.

The man rubbed his shoulders and said to the shopkeeper: "Excuse me, come half a catty of cooked beef, two steamed buns, and six taels of bamboo leaves." ”

This belongs to the territory of the Soap Pavilion Sect, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and even the county order of Beimang County is also a person from the Soap Pavilion Sect, naturally he is not afraid of eating beef indiscriminately and being held accountable by the government, but the shopkeeper is a character who is used to watching the dishes, the previous six people in the rivers and lakes, at first glance, are either rich or expensive, and a piece of clothing on the youngest girl is enough to buy him this small shop, so there is no need to command, he immediately stepped forward to greet him, and served the tea first, anyway, there will be no shortage of his money.

But look at this one again, he is wearing coarse cloth clothes, and he has ordinary flat-toed cloth shoes on his feet, and he can't even afford to wear a pair of upturned boots, which is not very good. So the shopkeeper looked unhappy, although he didn't ask directly, so as not to hurt the man's face, but he didn't move his steps for a long time, and his face was a little embarrassed, but he wanted to talk.

The man saw the boss's intentions, sneered, reached out to untie the burden on the table, and took out a string of copper coins from it, about half of which was about half-hanging, and threw it directly on the table with a sound.

The shopkeeper smiled at once, reached out to take the copper coin, and then turned around and went into the house to pick up the beef, and after a while, the shopkeeper came out with a wooden tray with a plate of beef, a pot of wine, a sea bowl, and two white-flour steamed buns that were still steaming slightly.

"You use it slowly. The shopkeeper put the food on the tray in front of the man, and his tone was obviously a little more enthusiastic.

The man didn't care about the shopkeeper, he poured himself a bowl of wine first, and after taking a sip of wine, he grabbed the chopsticks with one hand and the steamed bun with the other.

Perhaps this man had a good start, and it was almost time to eat, and many people passing by were greedy for this man's feast, and they also occupied a few other tables, and the small shop, which was originally very deserted, suddenly became lively.

After a while, the man drank the last sip of wine in the bowl in front of him, wiped his mouth, and untied his burden, which turned out to be a golden Buddha head, shining with golden light, almost blinding the shopkeeper's eyes.

Only then did the shopkeeper know that he had looked away, and the inconspicuous man in front of him was actually a hidden guy, and he couldn't help but feel worried.

The people at the table next to the man were disciples of Faxiangzong, they received the "Zhengyi" order of Zhengyizong, and hurried from the next county, originally planned to rest here, and then wait for the team, but they didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Several people exchanged a look, but they were all silent.

"Everyone, passing by the treasure land, the body is exhausted, there is no other ability, just some strength, so I want to gamble, the bet is this golden Buddha head, if anyone can win me in strength, although this Buddha head is taken, if you can't win, then I'm embarrassed, please leave ten Taiping money, I don't know if you are willing to give it a try?" The man's voice was extremely loud, and those disciples of the Faxiang Sect who were closest to him were so shocked that their ears were buzzing.

It is said that wealth moves people's hearts, and this is a universal truth, whether you are a feudal official, or a giant in the rivers and lakes, how many people do not love money? At this time, the customers in the small shop are a little tempted after hearing the words. Ten Taiping money, not too much, no less, that is, three hundred taels of silver, can be made up by gritting your teeth. And this golden Buddha head, even if it is not pure gold, but only gold-plated, it is far more than three hundred taels of silver, and some of them earn.

After all, there are many deceptions on the rivers and lakes, and they are used to pinching people's hearts, and they are shocked and greedy. Don't talk far, let's just say that the fortune tellers who walk the streets and alleys are used to using this trick, and the so-called "one surprise and one deception" comes from this. A little more clever, according to the gossip derived from the eight masters, from the wind to the end of the event, there are detailed deployments, usually a group of people set up a bureau together, once they are targeted, Wanguan family wealth will also be deceived and wiped out.

These people who seek out the wrong way are neither white nor underworld, and are collectively called blue roads. In fact, the battle between good and evil, in the final analysis, is still the struggle of the Taoist sect itself, at most there is a Buddhist sect, and the imperial court is the world of Confucianism, which is the upper three religions. Under the three sects, it is the lower ninth rate, although the warlocks and charlatans are also in the rivers and lakes, they are still not quite the same as the rivers and lakes of the good and evil factions.

Just now, this man directly took out a golden Buddha head, which was a bit of a frightening meaning.

These people in the rivers and lakes were also afraid that they would meet a master in the Blue Road and be deceived of the silver, so someone asked: "Isn't your Buddha head fake?

The man was not annoyed, stretched out his five fingers, pressed on the flesh bun of the Buddha's head, picked it up with one hand, and threw it directly at the man.

The man also has a cultivated body, seeing that the man doesn't seem to have much effort, he stretched out his hand to take it, and never thought of underestimating the weight of this Buddha's head, and after catching it, he was stumbled and almost didn't hold it.

Then I listened to the man: "Weigh it carefully and see if it's true." ”

The man reached out and touched it, stretched out another finger and pressed it gently, and a faint fingerprint suddenly appeared on it.

The gold is soft, so it can't be made of blade armor, and the people around see this scene, and they know that it is really gold, even if the inside is solid with stones and fish eyes, then the outer layer of gold is at least more than three thousand taels of silver. The only thing I am worried about is that this man's strength is really not small, and he can grab such a heavy Buddha head with just one hand, which is not something that ordinary people can do. But after thinking about it again, without this hand, how dare this man set up a gamble here.

At this time, Li Xuandu and his party naturally saw all these in their eyes, but the identity of the group was not bad, and they all turned a blind eye to it and did not hear it, only the little girl sitting next to Li Xuandu was curious, and asked in a low voice: "Senior Brother Li, is that Buddha head real?"

Li Xuandu glanced at the Buddha's head that was put back on the man's table, and said, "It's true." ”

"Then this man's heart is really big!" Su Yunjiao couldn't help but say loudly: "My year's annual silver is not as expensive as this Buddha's head, and he dares to take it out to gamble." ”

Li Xuandu said: "This man is not so much gambling, but rather as a competition with others, the competition is actually very particular, not blindly look at the size of the strength, the level of cultivation is also very important, the sect master of the Faxiang Sect was known as the first person with great strength. Nowadays, there are not a few people in the rivers and lakes in Baigu Town, and since this man has the confidence to boast about Haikou here, he thinks that he has some means. ”

Su Yunjiao asked, "Then what realm is he?"

Li Xuandu glanced at the man, and said uncertainly: "It should be the innate realm." ”

Just as the two of them were talking, a few more people stepped forward to look around the head of the golden Buddha, but they couldn't find anything wrong, after checking the quality of the bet, it was still the same sentence, the wealth was moving, and immediately someone escaped from his arms Ten red coins slapped on the table, and asked: "What kind of competition?"

The man smiled: "We have no grievances and no hatred, we are all meeting in Pingshui, naturally we can't shake our arms and do it, this is hurting the harmony, so use the simplest method, wrench your wrist, just one requirement, you can't break the table." ”

The people around shouted hello, got out of the way, and vacated a table, allowing the two to compete in a posture.

Then I saw the two arms stand up, the elbows resting on the table, and the palms of the two hands clasped together.

The two shouted and began to fight, and after holding each other for a while, the expression on the man's face remained calm, and even there was a little banter in his eyes, while the other man was pale, and beads of sweat continued to ooze from his forehead, and it seemed that he couldn't support it for long.

The man suddenly shouted, "Open it for me!"

The sound was like thunder in the ears, and it shook people's ear drums.

The man who was wrestling with him couldn't hold it anymore, and with an oops, his palm was slammed against the table.
