Chapter 28, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda
During the Tang Dynasty, Gaozong built the Big Wild Goose Pagoda for his mother Empress Wende, and the famous monk Xuanzang once translated the scriptures here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info was originally built with five floors, as the Western Regions Floating Tu Temple, and later added as a seven-level, which is a seven-level floating Tu.
Today, April 12.
April 12 is not a special day, let alone a festival, but it can be regarded as an extremely interesting and important day for some people, such as Ding Ning and Fu Hongxue.
April 12, today is the day of the decisive battle between Ding Ning and Fu Hongxue.
Dusk, not yet dusk, but dusk is approaching.
Today, there is still an endless stream of people who worship the Buddha and burn incense in the Ci'en Temple, but there is no one under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Sima Chaoqun and Zhuo Donglai had already ordered the disciples of the Great Dart Bureau in advance to ask all those who wanted to visit or go up to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to leave, and no one was allowed to approach a step.
In addition, Shangguan Xiaoxian also ordered Qian to help his disciples maintain order.
Aren't the two biggest forces in Chang'an the Money Gang and the Big Dart Bureau? How many people in the world are bent on dying? Therefore, naturally no one dares to disobey this order.
The sun is blazing, but dusk is approaching.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda has been cleaned clean, although every day the monks of the Temple of Mercy and Grace will send people to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to clean, but today's Big Wild Goose Pagoda is definitely much cleaner than any day before, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not clean, but there is no one under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, no one.
Taihe Tower is near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and you can see the scenery under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda from the east window on the second floor of the Taihe Tower.
Today's Taihe Building is also the same as the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, prohibiting idle people from entering, but there are people on the Taihe Tower, and there are already many guests.
Sima Chaoqun and Zhuo Donglai had already come to the Taihe Tower, and found a location on the second floor with an excellent view, from which they could have an unobstructed view of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
Sima Chaoqun ordered a pot of his twenty-year-old daughter Hong, ordered a table of wine and food, glanced at Zhuo Donglai, who was sitting opposite him, and then looked at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, he smiled: "I heard that he is as light as Yanhu Jinsleeve has already bet on Fu Hongxue Sheng?"
Zhuo Donglai nodded: "Yes." He looked at Sima Chaoqun, and he knew that Sima Chaoqun had something to say.
Sima Chaoqun smiled, he poured a glass of wine, stared at Zhuo Donglai and said, "Who is the person who bets on Ding Ningsheng?" Since Hu Jinsleeve bets on Fu Hongxuesheng, then someone will definitely bet on Ding Ningsheng. "Yes, this is the truth that anyone understands, if a gamble is to be successful, it is necessary for two people to bet on two different people?
Zhuo Donglai said lightly: "If I didn't guess wrong, the person who bet on Ding Ningsheng should be Guan Yumen, a cracked tiger and leopard named after Yan Hu Jinsleeve, who is as light as Yan Hu Jinsleeve, this person is not only a first-class gambler in the world, but he seems to have never won Hu Jinsleeve once, and he has always wanted to win Hu Jinsleeve once." ”
Sima Chaoqun clapped his hands and said: "Guanxi Guan Er, I didn't know much about this person before, but two years ago, Guan Yumen and Hu Jinsleeve gambled, and they lost 800,000 taels of gold and still didn't change their faces, I remembered this person at that time, but I was very strange, although he lost 800,000 taels of gold, but his life still seems to be very good." ”
Zhuo Donglai also laughed, he said lightly: "Although this person loses a lot of money and loses quickly, his ability to make money is not small, not to mention that he seems to have only lost two people so far, and no one else wants to win a copper from his hands." ”
If a gambler wants to be a big gambler, he can't always lose. Naturally, it is impossible for a person who always loses to become a first-class gambler. Although Guan Yumen lost a lot, he won a lot.
Sima Chaoqun's eyes began to glow, and he looked at Zhuo Donglai and said, "So far, Guan Yumen and Hu Jinsleeve have gambled at least five or six times, but he has never won?"
Zhuo Donglai nodded: "In my memory, Guan Yumen has gambled with Hu Jinsleeve at least seven times, and he hasn't won once, so I don't think Guan Yumen will win this time." ”
Sima Chaoqun clapped his hands, and he laughed and said, "Okay, you don't think Fu Hongxue will win, and I think Fu Hongxue will win, so it seems that we can also set a bet." ”
Zhuo Donglai looked at Sima Chaoqun with an excited face, his face was still indifferent, and he didn't seem to be surprised at all, very calm and natural.
He knew Sima Chaoqun. There seems to be no one in the world who knows Sima Chaoqun better than him, just as there seems to be no one in the world who knows him better than Sima Chaoqun. Although he and Sima Chaoqun are good brothers who share life and death together, he even understands that if someone wants to kill him, the first person to stand up is definitely Sima Chaoqun.
However, Sima Chaoqun has the arrogance of Sima Chaoqun, Sima Chaoqun has always wanted to distinguish himself from Zhuo Dong, no matter what he does, he wants to compete with Zhuo Dong, this time is not the same.
Zhuo Donglai understands this truth, and Sima Chaoqun also knows that Zhuo Donglai must understand this truth.
Zhuo Donglai's expression was very calm, he looked at Sima Chaoqun with a smile and said, "Yes, I bet on Fu Hongxue to win, and you bet on Ding Ningsheng, but what is the bet?"
Sima Chaoqun smiled, he looked at Zhuo Donglai and said, "What do you want to bet on?"
The corners of Zhuo Donglai's mouth turned up, evoking a faint smile, and he said: "I know that you got a sixty-year-old cellar daughter red a few months ago, if you lose, then your altar of daughter red will belong to me." ”
A cold sweat broke out on Sima Chaoqun's forehead, but his smile became brighter, and he shook his head and said, "I know that there is nothing up and down the dart game that can be hidden from you, yes! If Ding Ning wins, then I will ask you to buy me wine for half a year in a row, how about it?"
Zhuo Donglai didn't think twice: "Yes, but there is no basis for what you say, you need to set up a document." ”
Sima Chaoqun laughed and nodded, he called for someone to bring up the pen and paper, but at this time, a very chic voice suddenly sounded in Taihe Tower.
"This gamble must not only have written evidence, but also have witnesses, and this witness is me!" Before the voice could land, a young man who looked young and confident had already climbed to the second floor with a knife.
Behind the young man, there was also a middle-aged man in a blue robe with a high hat, the middle-aged man walked as calmly as a mountain, with an inexplicable momentum on his body.
The moment the two appeared, Sima Chaoqun and Zhuo Donglai had already seen these two people, and they had already recognized these two people the moment they saw them.
There was such a saying in the big dart bureau a long time ago, people who want to know what happened up and down in Chang'an, as long as Zhuo Donglai wants to know, there is nothing they don't know.
As soon as these two people entered Chang'an, Zhuo Donglai had already noticed it.
The former, a young swordsman who has risen in the rivers and lakes in recent years, is also the protagonist of today's duel, Ding Ning. The latter is the god of the face of the rare opponent in the land of the south of the Yangtze River, and the sword is blue and dusty. These two people are both well-known people in the rivers and lakes, so how can Zhuo Donglai not know?
Zhuo Donglai had already stood up with a smile, he looked at Ding Ning, who came first, with a very peaceful and casual smile on his face, and he said, "You are willing to be a witness, so naturally you can't do without a little benefit." ”
Ding Ning was not polite at all, with a bright smile, he looked at Zhuo Donglai with a smile and said, "Is Mr. Zhuo betting on Fu Hongxuesheng?"
Zhuo Donglai nodded: "Yes." "He's a man who rarely lies, whether it's to friends, enemies, or strangers, as anyone who has dealt with Zhuo Donglai knows, and he didn't lie this time.
Ding Ning nodded and said: "Since you are betting on Fu Hongxue to win like Miss Hu Jinsleeve Hu, then if you win, then I will lose, since I lose, then I naturally have no face to ask for any benefits, otherwise others will think that I deliberately lost in order to get any benefits in this gambling game." ”
Sima Chaoqun couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, originally he had a good impression of Ding Ning, and now he wanted to have a glass of wine with Ding Ning, but he understood that Ding Ning couldn't drink today, so he didn't pour Ding Ning wine, but he drank a glass himself.
He looked at Ding Ning with a smile and said, "You really don't deserve this person's benefits, but you can get my benefits, because I bet that you won." ”
Ding Ning nodded in agreement, he couldn't, he said: "I just heard that if you win, you will ask Mr. Zhuo to buy you half a year's wine, I don't want this benefit, but I'm interested in another benefit." ”
"What's the benefit?"
Ding Ning smiled even more happily, and he said: "I know that you have a jar of wine, a jar of wine cellar for sixty years of daughter Hong, I know that Mr. Sima is a lover of wine, so I only hope that Mr. Sima can give me half of his daughter Red as a gift." ”
Sima Chaoqun was stunned, but Zhuo Donglai chuckled at this time, he looked at Lan Yichen, who couldn't help laughing on one side, and nodded: "This is indeed a very reasonable request. ”
Sima Chaoqun was also laughing, but with a wry smile, he looked at Ding Ning who was looking at him with a smile with a wry smile, and said in a deep voice: "I can give you a third of the jar of wine, absolutely no more." ”
Ding Ning was a little strange and asked, "Why?"
Sima Chaoqun didn't hide it at all, he said lightly: "Half a month will be Donglai's birthday, and this jar of wine will have at least one of his shares." ”
Ding Ning was stunned for a moment, then he nodded, "Okay." In his eyes, the most important thing in the world was not gold and silver treasures or fine wines, but none. He respects his friends and respects those who respect them, so he does not put any strings on it.
It's just that someone took advantage of it.
"How can I be missing from drinking? Therefore, I will definitely go to Mr. Zhuo's birthday banquet when the time comes, and if I don't let me go, I will say that Sima Chaoqun owes me money and will not pay it back. ”
"I'm going to go, and I'm going to have to drink well, or I'm going to smash the big dart." ”
The two laughed and said, their voices not at all restrained, not polite at all.
Then I saw two voices appear in the eyes of Sima Chaoqun and Zhuo Donglai almost at the same time.
Ding Ning and Lan Yichen didn't look back at all, because they had already heard those two, and there seemed to be few people in the world except Chu Feng and Hu Jinsleeve who could say such things so confidently.
However, Ding Ning and Lan Yichen's prediction was still wrong, at least one other person could say such a thing, but this person was still on the road, sitting in a sedan chair.
Fu Hongxue was also on the way, he was not in a hurry.
