Chapter 969: Roster
At the age of eight, he was a monk and at the age of twenty-seven, he was moved by the conversations of several donors, and resolutely returned to the world, but he was an orphan whose parents had died, and he had no relatives after walking out of the Four Noble Truths, and although the master gave him a few taels of silver, he did not even have enough money to live in the store.
He has served as a monk for many years, and he still knows a lot about the world, especially the important surname of Qian, so he carefully considered his future life before telling the master his decision.
First of all, there has to be a name, and the three words "Shi Qingjue" immediately popped out of my mind.
Secondly, he had to have money, or something that could be exchanged for money, he thought about it all day, and was scolded by the monk in charge for this, which also became one of the reasons for him to propose a return to the world, and finally came up with a trick.
It was only a month ago, and he heard that someone had paid to buy the origins of the four noble monks, and the speaker joked, "Even if a monk is ten taels of silver, so many monks of the Four Noble Truths can sell it for a lot of money, right?"
Shi Qingjue left the temple he had been familiar with since he was a child, and walked to Biyu South City, thinking that things would be very simple, but he couldn't see the Dragon King or the Dubu King at all, and the mysterious buyer who collected the information of the monks everywhere in the legend was nowhere to be found.
It was less than a day away from the temple, Shi Qingjue was scared, but he had no way back, it was impossible to return to the Four Noble Truths, he couldn't work, he didn't dare to kill, the lively night in Nancheng seemed to be heaven in other people's descriptions, but his personal experience was only noisy and chaotic, the roads were muddy, the pedestrians were cold, and there was no place for a lay monk to stand at all.
As it should be, he happened to run into the swordsman Gao Yang.
Gao Yang was bragging about how he had won the respect of the Dragon King and the Dubu King, and the listeners were all jokes, but Shi Qingjue, who was occasionally passing by, took it seriously, stepped forward and respectfully bowed, and asked, "Do you recognize these two?"
Gao Yang glanced at the young monk and defined the young monk as the helper and retinue he was about to accept.
Shi Qingjue claimed that he had the treasures of the Four Truths to sell, but Gao Yang actually didn't listen to it much, and blindly described his awesomeness and the benefits of Nancheng, such a tavern trivial matter was heard by Xu Xiaoyi's eyeliner and sent it as a piece of information.
If it weren't for Gao Yang's nonsense in the whole matter, Xu Xiaoyi would not have regarded it as serious information at all, and the task of collecting information about the monks was progressing very slowly, and he had already forgotten about it.
Zhong Heng paid attention to the city lord's competition, and only glanced at this information, and didn't care about it.
Gu Shenwei's interest in the Four Noble Truths had not waned, so he decided to meet Shi Qingjue, who claimed to have a roster of monks.
The old man Mu completed the task easily, and the old man he pointed out was an ordinary swordsman of the Tianshan Sect, and the lay monk obviously had not yet attracted the attention of Zhang Ji and Dubu Wang.
Old Man Mu pointed at Shi Qingjue and said to the Dragon King: "This is a talent, just defeated two Nancheng Laoji and sent him to Xiaoyue Hall, it won't take a month, the sword will not move, and he will be able to win a big victory." ”
Shi Qingjue blushed and moved nervously, but he felt indescribable satisfaction in his heart......
Gu Shenwei didn't let Old Man Mu take him to Scoop Kee, but this trick seemed to be very effective, Shi Qingjue now gave people the feeling of being excited and kind, and he was in a state of excellent dealing.
"I've seen you. Gu Shenwei said.
"Yes, the Dragon King is good to remember his surname, I used to be a guest monk in the Four Noble Truths, and I once received the Dragon King with the abbot. ”
"Where's the roster?"
"Well, I'm willing to give the roster to the Dragon King, but I have the ...... conditions"
Old man Mu rushed to say for him: "Woman, he needs a woman, poor monk, it's really suffocating after so many years." ”
Shi Qingjue hurriedly shook his head, "No, I've already ...... I've seen ......."
Old man Mu looked at him in surprise, "It's worthy of being a monk, you realize very quickly, someone came to remind you, don't look at you today and treat women as dung, after one night, you can't wait to jump into the dung pit again, this is the same as reincarnation, the cycle repeats, endless, only ...... like me"
Gu Shen interrupted Old Man Mu's nagging, "Tell me about your conditions." ”
Shi Qingjue suddenly knelt down, "I want to join the Dragon Army, it's as simple as that, don't ask for officials or money, just be a small soldier, and receive rewards according to merit in the future, without the special care of the Dragon King." ”
Old Man Mu pursed his lips and shook his head, thinking that even if the monk handed over the Four Truths in his entirety, he would not want to get care from the Dragon King.
Gu Shenwei didn't answer immediately, he looked at Shi Qingjue a few times, and only when the other party's face changed from expectation to panic did he say, "Get up, you are a member of the Dragon Army." ”
Shi Qingjue was overjoyed, stood up, and said, "Please give me pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and I will write out the roster." ”
"Write it out, how many monks are there in the Four Noble Truths, do you remember?" asked the old man in surprise.
Shi Qingjue was slightly proud, his martial arts were average, his eloquence was not outstanding, and his biggest ability was to remember his surname, "This temple...... There are a total of 1,326 monks in the Four Noble Truths, 160 people who place orders, and more than 6,000 people who are recorded in the register of high monks, but only 284 people are alive.
The Four Truths have been built for a long time, there are many monks with special status, and the teacher recorded in the register began with the Buddha, and has continued from a thousand years ago to the present.
Two hundred and eighty-four people, each person's resume is less than 100 words, more than 1,000 words, all written down silently is also a big project, Gu Shenwei went to deal with chores, but the old man Mu stayed, not to spy on the monk, just to see if the monk's surname is really so good.
So Shi Qingjue wrote page by page, old man Mu read page by page, coldly took out one, asked about the content on it, and Shi Qingjue immediately recited it word for word.
Even if this roster is fake, Old Man Mu admires the monk's ability very much, if it is a profound martial arts secret, he can memorize it ruthlessly, but a roster, the content is extremely boring, many accounts are only subtle, he is drowsy, and the monk can write with great interest.
As soon as Gu Shenwei walked out of the room, the red bat came over, his face was a little not good, "Dragon King, someone wants to see you." ”
The Red Bat's duty is to take care of and assist Long Chuyun in handling the affairs of the Protector Mansion, and rarely directly informs the Dragon King of visitors, "Who?"
"You'll know when you see it, she won't let you say. ”
The red bat's voice showed obvious hostility and contempt, and Gu Shenwei guessed the visitor's identity.
Luo Ningcha was checking back and forth in the room, as if this would soon be her new home, "It's not easy to meet you, your maid asks a lot of questions, it must be that you are usually pampered." ”
The red bat had a cold face, and Gu Shenwei said, "She is not a girl. ”
"That's the slave girl you brought from the North Garden, you like to find some weird people, it's not enough to have a fairy-like green-eyed girl, and you got such a ......"
Before Luo Ningcha could figure out how to describe the female slave girl with the appearance of Hu Ren, the red bat threw down the sentence "You talk" and turned to leave.
"Look, there's no politeness at all, Dragon King, you should teach her a lesson. ”
"Is there anything wrong with you?" asked Gu Shenwei.
Luo Ningcha frowned and glanced at the young man behind the Dragon King, "You go out, I want to talk to the Dragon King alone." ”
Qin Yeming had already roughly figured out the habits of the Dragon King, so he didn't move, just waiting for the Dragon King's order.
"When he doesn't exist. Gu Shenwei said that he had no intention of being alone with Luo Ning tea.
Luo Ningcha looked at the young man suspiciously, "He is mute and deaf, I seem to have such a maid ring in the past, it is very useful, I should get another ......" She nodded, I don't know which unlucky maid ring I thought of, "I went into the city this time, there are several things, first, I am tired of living in a tent......
"Haven't you lived in a tent since you were a child?" Gu Shenwei couldn't help but remind this woman that she was the daughter of a robber leader, who had no fixed place to live, and had always used tents as her home before she got married.
Luo Ningcha was stunned for a long time, and miraculously came up with a counterattack, "You used to be a minion, are you still used to being a slave after becoming a dragon king? ”
Although Luo Ningcha's words were not flawed, Gu Shenwei had to say: "Let's go on, what are you doing in the city?"
Luo Ningcha showed a smug smile, "Hehe, there are times when you can't talk about me." First, I'm tired of living in a tent and want to buy a house in Nancheng and be your neighbor. ”
With the surname of Luo Ning Tea, you should buy an expensive mansion in Beicheng, Gu Shenwei didn't ask too much.
"Second, let's meet a few people and find out one thing, and third, I'm here to see you. ”
"Say it. ”
"Cheng'er has been sent to the Dragon Army camp, why don't you accompany him more and hide here?"
Gu Shenwei didn't say a word, and Luo Ningcha didn't force him to ask, "Okay, anyway, you decide this matter yourself, the older Cheng'er gets, sooner or later you can see whose son he is." I'm actually here to tell you that Pang Jing is not a good person, and he wants to calculate you. ”
"Did he go to buy you?" Gu Shenwei had already received the information, and he was clear about Pang Jing's experience of seeing Luo Ningcha.
"Even if he is blind, he actually moves his tongue in front of me, and I can see it through at a glance. ”
"Pang Jing doesn't like women. ”
Luo Ningcha opened his mouth and stammered, and after a while, he said, "It turns out that you already know." Suddenly his eyes narrowed, "Is it that the people around me have leaked secrets?" Nago, it must be Nago, or maybe be careful......"
"I knew it as soon as Pang Jing arrived in Biyu City. Gu Shenwei said that Shangguan Fei's eyesight was stronger than anyone else to identify this kind of person, and after the first meeting, he assured the Dragon King that the people of the Central Plains had the same preferences as himself.
Luo Ningcha was disappointed, she still wanted to surprise the Dragon King in a roundabout way, "I don't care, Pang Jing came to sell me, and wanted me to prove that King Xiao's military exploits were fake, I refused, even if it is a meritorious service, and it is a great merit, you have to reward me." The position of the city lord can either be given to you or to Cheng'er, and you can't give it to outsiders, right?"
Gu Shenwei was about to speak, when the old man rushed in, "Dragon King, the Four Truths Galan has come to rob the monk." ”
