Chapter 159: The Gap Between the Rich and the Poor
Chapter 159: The Gap Between the Rich and the Poor
After all, Yan Jiangyun is a few years younger, he is used to crawling and rolling in the waves of the river, and he still has some tenacity, the two have been entangled on the ground for a long time, after all, the strength of the empty master is not good, Yan Jiangyun took advantage of his unpreparedness, pouted his buttocks, and turned over and pressed the empty master underneath.
How could Master Kong admit defeat, and turned over hard, although he didn't turn over to it, his body was lying on his back, so he grabbed Yan Jiangyun's gray beard with one hand and tore it vigorously. Yan Jiangyun endured the pain, didn't let go of his right hand, and freed up one left hand to grab Master Kong's beard, but Master Kong's beard was empty, so he grabbed his hair, but Master Kong's head was also empty, and the light did not slip away. Yan Jiangyun had no choice but to take advantage of the situation to grab Master Kong's long ears.
The two of them hugged each other tightly, tumbling and rolling on the wooden platform, like a donkey rolling, only listening to the sound of "passing", the two fell off the wooden platform and rolled to the ground. There has been no rain in the past few days, the ground is dry, and the two of them have rolled on the ground several times, rolling all over the dust, gray and dirty, still holding on to it, and no one will let go.
As the host, Baiyun Dao Chang had to step forward to relieve the siege, and said: "The two are evenly matched, and they can't tell the winner if they fight any longer, you are separated, I have a solution." ”
As soon as the two heard that there was a way, they would fight again, even if they won the martial arts alliance leader, their faces were not good-looking, so they let go of their hands together and stood up.
The two patted the dust on their bodies, walked up to the wooden platform, pulled off one beard, and pulled out one ear, looking very embarrassed. Both of them were standing, and they wanted to hear what the White Cloud Daoist had to do to solve it?
Bai Yundao said: "Don't fight for the two of you, I think of a way, I don't know if you two are willing?"
The two of them still respect the Baiyun Daoist, both of them came a few days in advance, and the hospitality on the mountain is still very good, so they can't refute the face of the Baiyun Daoist.
Bai Yundao said: "Since the two of you can't tell the winner, it's better to set up two alliance leaders." Then he looked at the audience and asked, "Tell me, is this a good solution?"
Most people feel that there is no excitement to watch, and if they want to say that it is not good, and there is no reason to refute it, they don't open their mouths to answer. And those who are particularly smart will figure it out at once, set up two positions, let the two of them supervise each other, and then get the fairy book and fairy grass, so as not to be swallowed by one person. Thinking clearly, these clever men cried out:
"That's a good idea!"
Most of those who reacted a little slower, seeing that a few wise people had said that they could not be left behind, shouted in unison:
"Good!"
"Good ......"
Seeing that everyone said yes in unison, the Baiyun Dao chief continued: "Since we can't tell the winner, let's use the method of casting lots. ”
Before there is a more just way, casting lots is the most just way!
Daoist Bai Yun wrote down two notes, one with the word "positive" and the other with the word "vice", held them up for everyone to see, then crumpled them into a ball, threw them into a jar prepared by the apprentice in advance, picked them up and shook them vigorously with his hands dozens of times.
Bai Yundao said, "Please Master Kong." ”
"Slow, why did he do it first?" Yan Jiangyun was not convinced.
Bai Yundao said: "In this way, I will fall to the ground, and you two will choose." ”
With the mouth of the jar facing down, pour out two paper balls. Master Kong stepped forward and said, "I'll pick this one." ”
"I'll pick this one too. Yan Jiangyun said.
Bai Yundao said: "Fall again." ”
Picked up the two paper balls and threw them into the jar, picked them up and shook them with their hands dozens of times, and fell to the ground with their mouths down.
Master Kong said: "Old Yan, you choose first this time." ”
Yan Jiangyun bent down and looked at it carefully, the two paper balls were no different, everything was only based on luck, he closed his eyes and picked up a paper ball, and said, "Good or bad is it." ”
Master Empty picked up another ball of paper.
The two of them stretched out the paper ball and presented it to everyone, the word "positive" in the hand of Master Kong, and the word "vice" in Yan Jiangyun's hand was naturally a "vice".
There was nothing to say at this time. Master Kong is officially the leader of the martial arts alliance, and Yan Jiangyun can only be the deputy leader of the martial arts alliance. The deputy alliance leader only stepped down from the stage and sat down, and the main alliance leader was still standing on the stage.
Master Kong clasped his hands together and said: "It's really a shame for Lao Gu to be the leader of this alliance, everyone can choose another person with both virtue and ability to be the leader." ”
"Master Kong, the first master, you are the leader of the alliance. ”
"Master Kong, you are the leader of the alliance, this is the will of heaven. ”
"None of us will accept it, so we will serve you, master. ”
"Master Kong, you're welcome. ”
"Master Kong, take us to Immortal Island. ”
When Master Kong saw the words of the crowd, he couldn't push it back, so he had to say: "Thank you for your mistaken love, Lao Wei will be the leader of this alliance for the time being, and there will be high energy and great virtue in the future, I will give up the position of the leader of the alliance again." ”
"We all listen to the Alliance. ”
Master Kong said: "This time to go to sea to find overseas fairy islands, the first thing is to prepare a boat, this ship is not a small boat in the river, the boat in the river went to the sea, a big wave came, it overturned, the vast sea, everyone fell into the sea, there is only a dead end." So we're going to build a big ship by the sea. The cost of building a sea ship is not small, Deputy Alliance Master Yan, what do you say should be done?"
Yan Jiangyun only waved his hand and said, "I'm a poor fisherman, I haven't eaten the last meal, where do I have the money?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Yan Jiangyun felt that he had lost face as the deputy gang leader this time, but he couldn't come up with a penny.
Master Kong said: "Whoever pays for the sponsorship, his name will be engraved on the bow of the ship in the future, which is famous overseas." ”
There was still a burst of laughter just now, but this time there was silence.
This big group of people, look at the excitement, if you pay money, it will never be!
Seeing that no one agreed, Master Kong had to say: "The money for this shipbuilding is out of the temple family." ”
This time, there was a burst of cheers from the audience.
Yan Jiangyun sat there, he couldn't accept it, he was poor and short-minded, if you were strong, wouldn't you be humiliated?
Before the Maoshan Conference, the head of Baiyun Dao was thinking about letting Master Kong be the leader of the martial arts alliance, and the people had money, so they had to let the family be the leader of the alliance! When the time comes, everyone can get a piece of the pie. What's wrong with this? Although he was intervened by the poor old man Yan Jiangyun during this period, he had the will of heaven to let Master Kong become the leader of the alliance in the end.
The air master waited for everyone to be quiet, and continued: "When we sail to sea, who can row? Let's paddle, I'm afraid it's not suitable, right? So you have to ask a sailor to row a boat, who will pay for the sailor's money?"
I didn't expect to go to sea once, it would be so complicated! Everyone was silent.
Baiyun Dao Chang nodded, and said in his heart, Master Kong has sailed several times, and he has experience, this time God has long eyes, and he finally didn't choose the wrong person.
Master Kong looked at everyone with a smile, and everyone didn't dare to make a sound, as if they were afraid to ask themselves to pay.
Master Kong closed his eyes and said, "Amitabha." I don't go to hell, who does. ”
Fang Xiaoli asked, "Xiaoling, I seem to have heard this sentence somewhere." ”
Xiao Ling said: "Have you forgotten, didn't the monk in Yungu Temple also read this sentence?"
Fang Xiaoli nodded and said, "I remembered." ”
Master Kong said: "I know that everyone is short of money, so please ask the sailors for the money, and there is still this temple out." ”
There was a cheer from the audience. Rich people are generous and generous, that is what people can get, and those who are not rich want to be generous and generous, but they can't come up with money.
The master asked, "Daoist Mingyue, how many days will you estimate for this voyage to Immortal Island?"
Mingyue said: "When you go to Immortal Island, if you hurry up, you will have more than a dozen sunrises." ”
Master Kong said: "We still have to prepare food, vegetables, and fresh water for more than a month. Fresh water, you don't need to prepare so much, just take fresh water from the island when you return. How many taels of silver do you get this time?"
There are a few people in the audience who are settling accounts with their fingers, and they don't understand how to calculate it, most of them are too lazy to calculate it, anyway, it's a lot of money, what's the use of calculating it? Even if it is calculated, they can't afford it.
The owner of the wealthy family in Jintan County first planned to sponsor a sum of money, so that his name was engraved on the bow of the ship, so as to make a big show. But he is afraid that he will show his wealth, and these unqualified high-rollers will probably come to attack his idea by any means. If he wants to protect his property, he has to hire more nurses. Thinking about these nursing homes that only ask for money and can't work, he canceled this sponsorship fee.
Now, the owner of Ren Zhuang can't hold back himself, and wants to give out the money for grain and vegetables, but he thinks that when he gets the book of immortals, he can't read one more page, and those who don't have a penny can also see the book of immortals? Thinking of this, the owner of Ren Zhuang swallowed what he wanted to say.
Master Kong stood on the stage, looking at everyone for a while, but no one came out to sponsor it. After waiting for a while, no one came forward to sponsor it.
Master Kong said: "The silver money of grain and vegetables, the family of this temple really can't afford it." ”
When everyone heard this, they were also depressed. But Immortal Island still has to go, what should I do? Everyone invariably looked at their alliance leader, Master Kong, who was the leader of the alliance, and could naturally be the master for everyone.
