Ming inherits the customs. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the opening of the Ming Dynasty is slightly inferior to that of the previous Great Zhou, except for the border areas or special times, there is rarely a curfew in the rest of the time.
This is the case in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and so is Hengyang City, especially before and after the festival!
The lights are on.
In the city of Hengyang, everyone is small, with their wives and children to the west and east, there are more and more people in the streets and alleys, lighting lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, drinking and appreciating the moonlight.
Singing and dancing, prosperous.
Welcome the Mid-Autumn Festival on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival!
Laughing Maitreya wearing a gray cloth monk's robe, with a big bald head, a string of beads around his neck, a string of beads on his hand, as always, with a smiling face, simple and cute, really like Maitreya Buddha came down to the earth, walked on the street of Hengyang City, passed from the crowd, and finally came to the front of the God of Food, glanced at the signboard illuminated by the bright lantern, and walked in with a smile!
The food god dwelling is brightly lit, as if it were daytime!
As he walked in, a sharp-eyed man immediately stepped forward, nodded and said, "Master, please...... May I ask if the master is sharpened or does he live in the hotel?"
Laughing Maitreya smiled and said, "Amitabha...... The threshold of your building is too high, and the little monk has no long things, so he can't afford to eat and live!"
The God of Food is trained to be trained by the law, and the quality of the guy is not low, and he does not change his face with this snobbery, but he still does not change his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, and asks with a smile: "Then I don't know why the master came?"
Laughing Maitreya replied with a smile: "The little monk is looking for someone!"
"I don't know who it is?"
Laughing Maitreya said: "The little monk doesn't know who she is, only knows that her surname is Ling, she is a woman dressed in men's clothes, she only stayed in your building at dusk today, and with her, there should be seven or eight men and women, including rich and noble sons, female nuns, husbands and wives, girls, and retinues.
Seeing what he said in detail, the guy was a little surprised, but the report was just a trivial matter, and there was nothing to do, so he responded: "There was indeed such a group of people in the building before, but I also asked the master to leave a law number to explain the intention, and the small ones are good to go in and pass it on!"
Xiao Maitreya nodded and said, "That's right! The little monk is happy!"
The guy was stunned and asked uncertainly, "Master Fa is happy?"
Xiao Maitreya confirmed: "Yes, yes, it's happy!" When the donor announced, he said that the happy monk was entrusted by Yan Daxia to come and invite the Ling donor!"
The guy couldn't help but look at him more, Maitreya Buddha is like a Buddha, he is indeed happy, and his name is as good as his name!
"Master Happy will come with the little one first!"
Then he took it inside, chose an empty table in a remote corner, and said, "The master will wait here for a while, and the little one will go in and pass it on!"
There are nine courtyards in the back hall of the God of Food, and there are five vacant at present, and Huang Sangongzi, who is not bad for money, spent a lot of money to charter three of them, including A, B, and C, Ling Shan and Lin Ping'er live in one courtyard, four people from Wanlian Island live in one courtyard, and he and two followers live in one courtyard.
When the guy knocked on the door outside the courtyard, it was the waitress arranged by the restaurant who opened the door!
The price of the food god residence is expensive, and the quality of natural service is also good.
Unless the guest asks not to, each hospital will arrange a maid to serve and ensure that they are always on hand and ready to be dispatched...... Of course, some excessive requests can still be refused, after all, the God of Food is a restaurant, not a brothel in the green building.
There are two maids in this courtyard, who live in the cottage at the gatehouse, and Ling Shan and Lin Ping'er did not refuse!
The waitress who opened the door heard the guy's intention, so she asked the guy to wait outside for a while, and went in to tell him!
At this time, Ling Shan was taking a bath in the house!
When he heard the report, he asked the attendant to reply that he couldn't get out of the body now, and he would not be able to go out to meet the guests after a while, and sent his men back to tell the monks!
That's half an hour!
Laughing Maitreya is also surprisingly patient!
Ling Shan was still dressed as a man in white, walked out of the courtyard, entered the lobby, swept his eyes around, and saw a corner sitting in a corner, turning his hand beads, and looking at the white fat monk who came and went!
From the past.
He arched his hand and asked, "But Master Happy?"
Xiao Maitreya got up and saluted in return, and said, "It's the little monk, dare to ask the female benefactor if her surname is Ling?"
Ling Shan nodded and said, "It's surnamed Ling! There was something before, so the master has been waiting for a long time!"
Laughing Maitreya smiled humbly: "It is the luck of the female benefactor to see the little monk that she is already a little monk, so why wait a long time?"
Ling Shan asked, "I heard from the guy, the master was entrusted by Yan Daxia to find me?"
Xiao Maitreya nodded and said, "That's right! Yan Daxia is waiting in the courtyard of the Qingjing Hutong in Dongcheng, hoping that the female benefactor can go over to meet!"
Ling Shan said, "I don't know which Yan Daxia it is?"
Laughing Maitreya replied with a smile: "Although there are several famous Yan Daxia on the rivers and lakes, at this moment, when it comes to Yan Daxia, it is naturally Yan Tiannan Yan Daxia!"
Ling Shan frowned and asked, "But I have never met Yan Daxia, how could he ask the master to come to me?"
Laughing Maitreya still smiled: "If you have never met, how can you come to the Mid-Autumn Festival?
Ling Shan raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "It's that I'm too suspicious, don't blame the master!, it's just that we can meet tomorrow, does the master know what Yan Daxia is looking for me at this time?"
Xiao Maitreya glanced around, lowered his voice and said, "There are many people here, it's not easy to talk, but there is a secluded place?"
Although the great monk said cautious words, but there was no cautious look on his face, but he always smiled, at most, at this time, the smile on the corner of his mouth weakened slightly, which was really strange.
Ling Shan naturally noticed his expression, she had only seen one such person, that was the White Dragon Envoy of Longmu Island who had a relationship ten years ago, the two were quite similar, I don't know how the smiling monk in front of her was martial arts, and whether he could compare with the White Dragon Envoy!
Turning around for no reason, Ling Shan took the fat monk to the back hall and went to a secluded garden.
There was no one around, only lights, Ling Shan asked, "This place is quiet, not afraid of people listening, although the master said it, so careful, what is the secret?"
Xiao Maitreya nodded and said: "Yan Daxia fought with a mysterious master in Hengshan two days ago, suffered some injuries, and is currently recuperating, I want to see the female donor, it is related to the postponement of the sword competition, this matter should be discussed with the female donor in person, but Yan Daxia is injured and inconvenient to move, so I asked the little monk to come and invite!"
Ling Shan glanced at the fat monk suspiciously, and frowned, this was unexpected news, so I didn't know if it was true or not......
After thinking about it, she asked again, "Then how did Yan Daxia know that I was here?"
Laughing Maitreya said: "Yan Daxia was injured that night, so he wanted to postpone the date of the sword competition, so he said the appearance and characteristics of the female benefactor, and asked several friends to pay attention to the city gate and the whereabouts of the female benefactor!
Ling Shan nodded, and said, "I see, then please go to the front hall for a while, let me go back to the room and talk to my companion first, and then go to see Yan Daxia!"
Laughing Maitreya nodded and smiled: "Then the little monk will go outside first, and the female benefactor will please!"
After separating, Ling Shan returned to the Yizi courtyard and asked the waitress to find the shopkeeper of the God of Food!
She originally didn't plan to reveal the identity of the rain envoy, but the news in the mouth of this white fat monk was really unexpected, and she still thought it would be good to find the head of this place to confirm!
If this happened in Hengshan two days ago, the spies of Huguo Villa would have heard about it!
