Chapter 437: Robbing the apprentice on the spot

"Woo-woo-woo-"

The continuous horn sounded, at this time the exorcism conference was nearing the end, there were three spirit cards and the spirit flag standing on the platform, there were several monks who scattered a plate of peaches and rice in all directions, the abbot of Hanshan Temple and the Zen master bounced his fingers, and the spirit card and the spirit flag suddenly burned up, to show that the flame mouth has been released.

I only heard Lian Xing Zen Master say loudly: "Hui Qi Yoga is the most victorious!" All the monks in the audience replied together: "Jue Huang Fan Li Ren Tian", supplemented by the six-character mantra, Lian Xing Zen Master turned around, lit incense on the altar of the priest and worshipped, and recited the "Great Compassion Mantra" and "Changing Food Mantra".

I only heard the Zen master Lianxing say loudly: "After today's ceremony, under the guidance of Makobharata, anyone who is destined can enter the Buddha and receive teaching......

The monks of Jinshan Temple, who were exhausted, were pushing cups and changing lamps with Xiao Qianli, talking about the Buddha, so happy, hearing this sound, Zhaoshan Zen Master first "groaned" in his heart, and suddenly sank to the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Qianli seemed to be smiling, glanced out the window, looked at Zen Master Zhaoshan, and said with a smile: "Great Monk Zhaoshan, which one is this play?"

Zen Master Zhaoshan reluctantly smiled and said: "Xiao Zhangjiao doesn't know something, there are thousands of Buddhist believers, and at this time, the ceremony is just right to receive a few sincere laymen to get started......

"Sincere layman?" Xiao Qianli chuckled, "Looking at it from this seat, it seems to be selecting a disciple to teach the arts?"

Zen Master Zhaoming is a smart person and the best at communicating, and said with a smile: "Xiao Jushi doesn't have to think too much, although Buddhism is big, he is not a person who has no fate." If someone is related to my Buddha, it is an entry, and it will not hinder the overall situation. ”

Xiao Qianli smiled: "If you don't have a chance, is it the intensity?"

The monks looked at each other, and they all changed color for a while, and Zen Master Zhaoshan smiled and said, "How can there be such a thing?"

Xiao Qianli nodded and said with a smile: "This is the best!"

He stood up and said with a smile, "Are you going to watch it with this seat?"

The monks hesitated for a moment, and Zen Master Zhaoshan said, "In this case, we will watch the ceremony with Xiao Zhangjiao, okay?"

Xiao Qianli smiled and agreed, only listening to the command of Zen Master Zhaoming, the white giant boat immediately changed direction and slowly leaned towards the shore.

At this time, dozens of young people on the high platform rushed up, and even the Zen master rubbed the top one by one, and then withdrew his hand one by one, and encouraged him to go home and continue to practice, and he may be able to attain the three bodhisattvas one day.

He didn't notice that Xiao Qianli, who was dressed in a Confucian robe, was already standing quietly under the stage, beside him, Zen Master Zhaoshan, the abbot of Jinshan Temple, stood aside, and several powerful people stood behind Zhaoshan, silent.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, and a teenager struggled and shouted, "I don't want to be a monk!

A middle-aged farmer next to him persuaded: "Xiaotong, let's go and give it a try, if you enter the master's eyes, you will not be able to enjoy it in this life......"

The young man seemed to be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and thin, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but he insisted on refusing to go, but the relatives on the left and right forcibly dragged him, only to hear a middle-aged man laugh and say: "Xiaotong, if you can really be favored by Hanshan Temple, we will have a good life!"

The young man hesitated for a moment, stopped struggling, turned his head and asked, "What's a good day?"

The man smiled and said, "Don't you know that if you are favored by the master and become an introductory disciple of Hanshan Temple, your father will no longer have to pay agricultural taxes, and will also give you a ploughing ox, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

The young man turned his head to look at the middle-aged farmer, only to see that the farmer hesitated slightly, and nodded slowly.

The young man's strength to resist suddenly relaxed, and his whole person was paralyzed, and he nodded: "Okay, you have raised me for sixteen years in vain, and it can be regarded as the time for me to repay my kindness...... In that case, I will go up."

The commotion in the audience, Lian Xing Zen Master had already seen it in his eyes, looked up and down at the young man who was full of leanness, and was already a little satisfied in his heart, and said with a smile: "You come up!"

The young man hesitated slightly, broke free from everyone's tugging, walked straight up to the high platform, and asked, "Monk, if I really enter Hanshan Temple, can I really be exempted from agricultural taxes, and there is still a ploughing cow?"

Lian Xing Zen Master said proudly: "The county guard is on the lake, what the old man said will be false?" If you don't believe it, just ask the county guard!"

The young man sighed, bowed his head, and said, "Come on......"

Lian Xing Zen Master was just about to stretch out his hand, only to hear someone in the audience laugh and say: "Hanshan Temple is so powerful, all the people who are selected don't even have to pay the national tax?

Lian Xing Zen Master couldn't help but be furious, his eyes were cold, and he looked in the direction of the person who made the sound, only to see a young man with a sword in a Taoist robe slowly stepping onto the high platform, and said with a smile: "That little doll, this seat gave you a hundred taels of silver tattoo, and you followed this seat, how about it?"

"A hundred taels of silver?"

There was a sudden uproar in the audience, and even the middle-aged farmer who had just tried his best to persuade couldn't help but have his eyes lit up, and shouted: "Dao Chief, the monks don't speak, but what you said is true?"

At this time, the price of goods is extremely low, one acre of fertile land, a year of production is only four or five cents of silver, this middle-aged farmer only has seven or eight acres of land, a hundred taels of silver can be worth more than ten years of output, than the tax exemption, the benefits of cattle are several times more.

Xiao Qianli smiled lightly, reached into his arms, took out a crumpled piece of paper, threw it away, and a silver light fell straight into the farmer's arms, the middle-aged farmer hurriedly opened it to see, and when he saw the silver ticket worth one hundred taels, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Xiaotong, you will follow this Taoist!"

The young man couldn't help but be stunned, turned his head to look at Xiao Qianli, but said, "Dao Chief, you have to think about it." I don't know anything but a handful of strength. My father has raised me for sixteen years, just waiting to sell me for a good price. ”

Xiao Qianli said with a smile: "How can there be such a truth in the world? Isn't he your own father?"

The young man shook his head and said, "I am an abandoned baby, and my father raised me, just waiting for today." If you buy me, I will bring you tea and water, and I will pour nothing but ......."

"Just what?"

The young man plucked up his courage and said, "If you want a subordinate, you can buy a young maid for twenty taels." It's a big loss to buy me!"

Xiao Qianli was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "No loss! No loss! You worship me as a teacher, and I will accept you as a registered disciple!"

The Lian Xing Zen Master next to him had already exploded his lungs and shouted: "Wuna Daoist, how dare you bewitch the people here? Why don't you get out of with me!"

"Get out of here?" Xiao Qianli slowly turned around, his eyes were murderous, and he said slowly, "Bald donkey, can you try again?"
