Text Chapter 30 Begonia, the monk who went down the mountain

Tongqi's northernmost border pass town, Tianluo Pass.

It was the northern gateway of the Central Plains Dynasty in the Great Qin Dynasty, because it was located at the border, and the folk customs were particularly strong. This is also because for a period of time it was one of the twelve countries of the desert that occupied this place, which made the Han people miserable, and in order to survive, the long-term interracial struggle finally created the status quo that almost all the people in the Heavenly Wolf Pass were soldiers.

The reason why Tianluo Pass is called Tianluo Pass is because of the sentence "Northwest looks at the sky wolf".

At the beginning of the Great Qin, there are many ethnic groups here, and the desert barbarians occupy the absolute dominance, and at the same time, relying on this, there are often barbarian war horses entering the hinterland of the Central Plains to burn and loot.

The army of 300,000 Great Qin Tigers and Wolves has almost been bloodied and has not yet completely become a border town of the city, but all aliens have been killed at a rate, until today, thirty miles north of the Heavenly Wolf Pass, there is also a high Jingguan, and the piles of white bones have not completely rotted.

Therefore, for a long time, this Heavenly Wolf Pass was a forbidden place for the desert barbarians, and it was not until the late Tang Dynasty that there was a situation where various ethnic groups lived together.

In the early days of the Tongqi Dynasty, this place was once again taken advantage of by the desert Huhu country, and was later recovered by Tang Cheng and the Tang family's iron cavalry. Since then, Tang Cheng has implemented all the soldiers here, and the veterans and generals of the Tang family have settled here. After Tang Cheng, who was only a general at the time, led the Tang family's iron cavalry to sweep the Central Plains, it was finally the general who began to expand outward, and the first thing to do was to recover the border pass and then hold on.

The fact that all the people are soldiers does not mean that no alien races are allowed here, on the contrary, this place is still open enough, not to mention the herdsmen and people of the twelve countries of the desert barbarians, even the other Eight Desolate Sea Clans also have merchants who come here to do some business, so by the time of the tenth year of Tongqi Maoyuan, this place has been very prosperous.

There is a street called Bone Street in Tianwolf Pass, because it used to be the place where the most dead people and bones were piled up, and later it was the place where the most lonely widows and beggars were located.

Until three years ago, there was a teenager and a young girl who came here one after the other, at first they were trying to find food for the poor people in Bone Street, and then they simply bought a two-entry courtyard on the street, and there was a façade outside the courtyard and started a small business, and the inside was full of homeless people in Bone Street.

As long as you don't break the law, you can do whatever business you make money for.

So for a while, people will find that the shop was selling herbs one day, and the next day it was selling animal skins. Gradually, the shop began to specialize in medicinal herbs, many of which looked like they had just been picked, and became famous as a rare iceberg snow lotus.

Since then, the business in the store has been getting better and better, and even Dr. Langzhong has been invited to sit for consultation, and the scale of the pharmacy and medical hall has gradually opened, and it has attracted a lot of ruthless characters who eat on the tip of the knife to live in Bone Street, no way, the medicinal materials and Langzhong here are the best.

Bao Kang Tang, the sign of the current shop, mainly deals in medicinal herbs and medical halls, and almost all the poor people in the bone street have become members of it.

Of course, on this basis, there are many shops in the bone street, among which several restaurants, cloth villages, and blacksmith shops are funded by the shopkeeper of Baokangtang, and the guys in them are also those orphans and widows.

Bone Street has changed its appearance in just half a year, no longer lifeless, and gradually shows signs of prosperity.

The boy and the girl felt that it was time to retire, so two other young women came to replace them, the two women called the boy the little master, and the boy called the two women Begonia and Yellow Bird.

On this day, Baokang Hall opened its doors to welcome guests as in the past, and it was located in the border gate, where dragons and snakes were mixed, and the business of the medical hall was exceptionally prosperous.

Although today's Baokangtang is no longer a simple medical hall, and there is a huge unknown commercial network behind it, but in this Tianluo Pass, people still think that it is the best medical hall.

When I came to Tianwolf Pass three years ago, I saw the emaciated appearance of my little master, Begonia and Huang Li completely cried into tears, and after learning that the little master became like this because of the operation of this medical hall, the two young women who were less than twenty years old were ruthless, and they did not swear to polish the Baokang Hall in a decent way.

When the time comes, let the little master happily take over the new Baokang Hall.

That year, the begonias were eighteen and the yellow orioles were nineteen, and they were waiting to be released.

This year, one twenty-one, one twenty-two, is already graceful and bright.

In the Baokangtang Medical Hall, Haitang has a special consultation hall, and she has studied medicine for ten years, and she has medical skills comparable to the imperial doctors of the Imperial Palace, so soon after she appeared, she became the first doctor of Baokangtang, and soon became the first doctor of Tianluo Pass.

It is precisely because of this that Begonia and Huangli have a relatively clear division of labor, with two shopkeepers, one responsible for the hospital and the other responsible for other industries.

At noon, because there are other doctors sitting in the clinic, so there are not too many incurable diseases in the Baokang Hall, Haitang is not very busy, in her own consultation hall just finished reading the letter from the imperial capital Tiange, saying that the little master has arrived in Dongjiang Prefecture, her hanging heart is put down.

In the past three years, she and Huang Li have returned to the imperial capital once a year, so they can only see the little master once a year, and every time they keep talking about the Heavenly Wolf Pass.

Everyone else knows that the little master is a young master, but in fact, the girls in the little prince's mansion all know that their little master has a vast sky in his heart.

That also depends on the cost of talent.

"I heard that the little master snatched another Oiran back in Dongjiang Prefecture, and has already lived in the Basho Courtyard, it seems that this Oiran must have something extraordinary. ”

Begonia carefully put away the letter, and said to herself with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, not caring at all about such a foolish act as snatching the oiran.

She got the letter first, so she had to send it to Huang Li as soon as possible, also one of the eight big girls in the Little Wangfu, Begonia and Huang Li appeared in the Sky Wolf Pass at the same time, you can imagine how much the Little King Mansion attaches great importance to the Sky Wolf Pass.

Ding Ding Ding!

The bell on the table was runged, and immediately a ten-year-old girl lifted the beaded curtain and walked in.

"Bang'er, take this letter and give it to your sister Huang Li, be careful not to go on a business trip on the road. Haitang gently touched the girl's head, this orphan who was skinny three years ago and was about to starve to death outside the gate, has now become a little beauty.

"Well, Bracelet knows. The little girl answered crisply, took the letter and went out.

As soon as the little girl left, before Begonia sat back, another girl rushed to lift the curtain and come in.

"Sister Begonia, go to the front hall and take a look, a little child covered in blood is so pitiful, and several other doctors said that they can't be saved. As she spoke, the girl burst into tears.

They are all hard-working children, and it is particularly distressing to see each other again.

......

There is a mountain in the Kunlun Mountains, Huitou Mountain.

Li Qingbai is 20 years old this year, and has been a monk in the Kuhai Temple of Huitou Mountain for 20 years.

Although he is the grandson of the abbot's apprentice, Li Qingbai's generation is still ridiculously high in Kuhai Temple, there is no way, who makes his master is now nearly 100 years old, just wait for the 100-year-old old Buxiao to become a Buddha on the ground, and the abbot position should be his master's turn.

In Kuhai Temple, there are only five people of Li Qingbai's generation, and the other five are monks over 50 years old.

Only he is twenty years old, not known to the world, and is only called Uncle Shi or Uncle Zu by nearly a thousand bald heads under more than a dozen monks in Kuhai Temple.

As a monk to Li Qingbai's generation, the ring scars on his head should have been nine, but the master has always said that he has a deep Buddha fate, but the dust is not over, so the last ring scar was not given to him.

This time I went down the mountain just to take a trip to the red dust, and how to see through the red dust without entering the red dust? This is what the old abbot told him secretly without laughing at the monk.

It is said that the master was fooled down the mountain by his master because of this sentence, and when he came back, he was a monk.

However, the old monk didn't let Li Qingbai ask the master if there was such a thing, and his intuition told him that there seemed to be some story in it, because Buxiao always showed a very weird smile every time he talked about this.

Don't laugh or laugh, in fact, always laugh.

When Li Qingbai asked to go down the mountain, he kept his mouth shut and did not betray his master, and his master didn't bother to ask the reason, as long as he could make his youngest disciple fully enlightened, this Kuhai Temple would be handed over to him in the future.

As for whether it is dangerous to go down the mountain, the next abbot of Kuhai Temple is even less worried.

In the past 20 years, except for the two years when this kid was still a baby, since he was three years old, the entire Kuhai Temple has been jumping almost every day.

The age is young, the generation is high, the powder carving is jade, the Buddha is profound, lively and active, so the eighteen years of Kuhai Zen Temple, is the most lively eighteen years in history.

Sending away the living Bodhisattva in front of him, the Kuhai Temple can finally be quiet for a while.

This is the inner thoughts of many monks of Kuhai Zen Temple, including the monk who does not laugh, and Li Qingbai's master is naturally no exception.

His master's name is Kapian, and his name is Li Qingbai. Wood gives birth to children, and cotton is innocent.

When it came time to go down the mountain, in fact, many people were still reluctant, not only Li Qingbai's senior brothers were reluctant, but also his bachelor uncles, and the same was true for those juniors who were older than him.

As for those younger generations than him, they are even more reluctant, and there is one less leader who can take the lead in causing trouble and can carry the black pot, and the future will not be easy.

Don't laugh, the old abbot still laughs, but the master Kapok only said one sentence: "The woman under the mountain is a tiger." ”

So, Li Qingbai went down the mountain with the heavy entanglement given by his brothers and uncles, which are said to be the incense money obtained from fate, and now they have become his entanglement.

When he traveled all the way and came to the outside of the Heavenly Wolf Pass, there was not much left of these entanglements.

There is plenty of food and clothing inside the gate, and bandits are rampant outside the gate, so his entanglement is naturally given to those poor outcasts outside the gate. It's not that these people don't want to live in the Heavenly Wolf Pass, it's because their ancestors have lived outside the pass for generations and have roots there.

This is a Han village with only a dozen households, and when Li Qingbai came here again, it was already the tenth day of his descent from the mountain, from Kunlun to outside the Tianluo Pass, ten days made him almost re-acquaint himself with the world.

It is not the friendship of Kuhai Temple, but the suffering that never disappears.

This suffering finally reached its climax when he stepped into the village for the second time.
