Chapter 116: Master Jianshen
Guo Chong scratched his bald head and said, "Senior brother, since you know that he is not a good person, why do you still give it to him?"
Chen Qiaoxin said: "Nian Qianyao is now an official of the imperial court, if I don't give him or teach him some divine fire techniques, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for me to leave Tongzhou City today." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Fortunately, what I gave him was just an ordinary manuscript, and I didn't give him the real secret art manuscript. ”
Lu Wushuang's beautiful eyes turned slightly, with a hint of melancholy on his face: "Tang Yao was not an ordinary person that year, if he knew that this was an ordinary book, I am afraid that he would not give up." ”
Chen Qiaoxin frowned and nodded: "Yes." Even when I left Tongzhou just now, I had already noticed that someone was following me. So I went around in a big circle to get rid of him. Early tomorrow morning, we will board the journey and return to Yangzhou. ”
Chen Qiaoxin glanced at Qiu Yintao and said, "Second junior brother, if you want to get ahead, I won't stop you." The three of us can go back to Yangzhou. ”
Qiu Yintao smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "Since the senior brother has made up his mind, the senior brother is willing to be a rural farmer from now on. The matter of serving the imperial court was never mentioned again. ”
Chen Qiaoxin's face rarely bloomed, and he nodded with satisfaction: "That's right!"
Although he said those words just now, he didn't want Qiu Yintao to leave him at all. The brothers have lived together for more than 30 years, and everyone knows how terrible habits are.
Puji Temple, one of the three famous temples in Putuo Mountain. It is located outside the southern foot of the vulture peak of the white top of Putuo Mountain, founded in the second year of Liang Zhenming (916), after repeated rise and destruction, Kangxi 28 years, Kangxi south tour of the edict to rebuild the temple, and then give the title "Puji group of spirits".
Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong stood outside the abbot's hall, waiting for Master Jianshen to summon them.
After a while, a little monk walked out of the main hall, bowed respectfully to Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong, and said, "The host of my family has invited two donors. ”
Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong followed the little monk into the abbot's hall. Although it is not as magnificent as the Great Circle Hall, it is also tall and spacious. There were only a few dim oil lamps lit in the hall, and the sky outside the hall was overcast, so the hall was dim and lightless. Chu Jing looked around, there was no one else in the hall, just an old monk sitting on the futon in the middle of the main hall. The old monk was dressed in gray monk's robes and did not wear a robe. The eyes are slightly closed, the two white eyebrows have hung down to the temples, and the longevity spots on the face can be seen that the age of the old monk is really not good. The old monk's right hand held a string of sandalwood beads and rubbed them slowly.
The little monk led Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong to the old monk, clasped his hands together, and said, "Abbot Qiqi, Lord Chu and Lord Lin have arrived. ”
The old monk opened his eyes, looking very struggling, and when he saw Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong, he folded his hands and said, "Amitabha, good, good." The two donors, the old man is polite. ”
Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong returned the salute respectfully and said, "I've seen Master Shen." ”
Jianshen said slowly: "Recently, the weather has become cold, and the old man's asthma has been committed again, and he can't go out to greet the two donors, and I ask the two donors to forgive me." ”
Chu Jinglian said with a smile: "Where is the master?" I waited uninvited, the master did not close the door, and we are already grateful. How dare you complain about the master. ”
Seeing Shen smiled faintly, and then said to the little monk: "Show the tea to the two donors." ”
Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong sat in the guest seat, and the little monk made a cup of tea for the three of them, and then stood respectfully beside them.
Jian Shen asked: "I have never met with the two donors, I don't know why the two donors came?"
Chu Jinglian glanced at the little monk next to him, and then looked at the depths.
Seeing that he understood deeply, he said to the little monk: "You go down first." ”
The little monk clasped his hands together and bowed: "Obey the order." Dear donors, the little monk retires. After speaking, the little monk withdrew from the abbot's hall and closed the door of the hall casually.
Chu Jinglian saw that there was no one else, so he said: "Master Shen, in Xia Chu Jinglian, this is my friend Lin Daohong." ”
Lin Daohong bowed again.
Chu Jinglian continued: "We are from Yangzhou, and we have something to ask for here today, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"
Jianshen nodded: "Master Chu just talks, you don't have to be polite." ”
Chu Jinglian said straight to the point: "I heard that many years ago, the master had met Gu Junen. I wonder if that's true?"
Seeing the depths, his white eyebrows trembled, he was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "Lao Wei has indeed seen it, but that was more than forty years ago, I don't know why Master Chu mentioned this old thing today?"
Chu Jing's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a slightly hurry: "I heard that Gu Junen was once in charge of the secret of the Dog's Tooth Talisman, I wonder if Master Jianshen knows?"
Jianshen's brows tightened, and after a long time, he said slowly: "Lao Wei does know. ”
Chu Jinglian and Lin Daohong's eyes lit up. Although Tong Xiaotian gave such a message, the two also hoped that Jianshen would know about it, but when they really heard Jianshen's words, the two of them still couldn't suppress it and were a little excited.
Chu Jinglian's eyes were blazing, and he asked word by word, "May I ask the master, where is this canine tooth talisman?"
Jianshen slowly raised his head, and looked out of the window with his eyes a little blank, as if returning to that era of gunsmoke: "More than forty years ago, Gu Junen once came to this Puji Temple. At that time, he was seriously injured, and Qing soldiers chased him outside the temple. At that time, the presiding master, Master Huiyun, that is, Lao Qu's master, couldn't bear Gu Junen to be killed, so he secretly hid him in the cellar of Puji Temple. Therefore, Gu Junen escaped. The Qing troops could not find it, so they withdrew soon after. Master Huiyun saw that Gu Junen was seriously injured, so he arranged him in a side courtyard, treated him every day, and ordered me to serve tea and food to Gu Junen. About three months later, Gu Junen recovered from his injuries and planned to leave Puji Temple. Before leaving, he handed over the dogtooth talisman to my master, claiming that this life-saving grace could not be repaid, only this dogtooth talisman showed his heart slightly, and told my master the secret of this dogtooth talisman. My master, Master Huiyun, insisted on not accepting it, so Gu Junen said goodbye without saying goodbye, and left a brief note: The master does not accept it, and it can be awarded to the destined person. My master had no choice but to secretly put away this canine tooth talisman. More than 20 years ago, Master Huiyun passed away. Before passing away, Master said to me, "This canine tooth talisman is a bad thing, and you can't stay in this Puji Temple for a long time." Not long after, a Helian Qingtian benefactor came. He forced his way through the mountain gate, saying that he had come for the Dogtooth Talisman. So I pushed the boat down the river and gave him the canine's tooth charm. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long to hear that this Helian Shi had died in Huangquan, and there was no news of the dog's tooth charm again. ”
