Section 7: March 3, take money to buy joy
"Big brother, we have finally come to Anhui, this place, with green mountains and green waters, is really a good place to go, how good it would be if we could settle here in the future. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Yue Xiao and Chongsan, who had just arrived in Anhui, walked into the Yuelai Inn as they spoke.
"What a good thing, I'm tired of seeing the mountains, and I haven't seen any flowers grow. Chongsan didn't care, but instead had a disgusted expression.
"Big brother, what do you mean by this? Why are you so uninteresting? Life is meant to live freely. Yue Xiao said to Chongsan.
"Live freely, in the world, in the disturbed world, do you still want to be at ease?" Chongsan asked rhetorically.
"Well, that's right, but I'm good if I have a comfortable heart. ”
"Second brother, why do you still have such long hair, why don't you go and become a monk? If you are a monk, you must be a high-ranking monk. Chongsan said jokingly.
"Well, I don't dare to become a monk, if I become a monk, those monks in Shaolin Temple won't have anything to eat. Yue Xiao laughed and said.
"Hey, second brother, look, what is that?" Chongsan pointed to a large piece of red paper that was pasted high on the horizontal pillar of the inn, and it seemed that a limerick poem had been written on it.
The limerick reads like this:
Yuelai Inn, there is the fragrance of wine, the beauty is like jade, and the long sword is the rainbow.
At the foot of Tianzhu Mountain, the Oiran wants to be Rong, the plain clothes are plain, and the wonderful sound goes to the sky.
Fifteen returns to the truth, once it appears, the first in the world, and the game is finally revealed.
On March 3, the beauties are accompanied, and the one with the highest price gets the money.
The meaning of the limerick is easy to understand, and the Oiran flower of the Lingdu Piaoxiang Building wants to accommodate the Yuelai Inn at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain, and the chess game for the first place in the world is about to come to an end. That's just these two meanings, but the limerick also shows that Oiran has plans to sell himself.
Yue Xiao and Chongsan looked at the limerick poem, Chongsan smiled, not caring at all, but Yue Xiao frowned slightly when he saw it.
"The rumors won't be true, right, the second brother really has a heart for that Oiran?" Chongsan looked at Yue Xiao who was frowning.
"It's not a heart, it's a confidant!" Yue Xiao said.
"There's a difference?"
"I don't think there's a difference. ”
"Shall we go, then?"
"Hmm. ”
Before the two of them could sit down, they walked out of the branch of this Yuelai Inn and galloped straight towards the Yuelai Inn at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain.
About half an hour after Yue Xiao and Chongsan left, a man in green clothes, more than seven feet tall, looked handsome, but the wrinkles on his forehead showed that this person was not a small age. Holding a folding fan, in this spring, there are many characters dressed in this way walking in the rivers and lakes.
Slowly walked into the Yuelai Inn, silently looking at the big red paper.
"Fan Xiliu, step by step, originally there was only a true chess game, but coupled with this unexpected intrusion of Hua Xiangrong, it seems that this game of chess is really getting more and more interesting. ”
"Little Er, come to the pot with a good daughter red. The man in Tsing Yi found a seat by the window and sat down, shouting.
After a while, a shopkeeper with a white rag on his shoulder brought a pot of good daughter red.
"Guest, please use it slowly. ”
"Wait, I've got something for you. The man in Tsing Yi took out a piece of silver from his cuff and threw it on the table.
"If you ask, guest officer, I will know everything and say everything. The shopkeeper looked at the silver lying quietly on the table, and almost reached out to grab it, just a few worthless questions can be exchanged for this silver, isn't this the best thing in the world, a guy who is as witty as the shopkeeper, how can he let it go?
"When did you put this limerick on it?" the man in Tsing Yi pointed to the red paper attached to the horizontal pillar.
"Oh, what you want to ask is this, this has been posted for several days, probably seven or eight days ago, it is said that every Yuelai inn has pasted such a piece of red paper...... "The shopkeeper really knows everything, as if he is afraid that he will not get the ingot of silver."
"Okay, I know, you can go, this ingot of silver, I will reward you. The man in Tsing Yi, seeing that the shopkeeper was really talking about a long speech, was really a little impatient, so he waved his hand and dismissed the second child.
"Seven or eight days ago, maybe more than ten days, who has such great ability? I'm going to see who ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall. The man in Tsing Yi drank a glass of wine and poured himself again.
After a pot of wine, he threw a gold ingot on the table.
When Xiao Er saw this scene, he hurriedly took down the gold, wanting to stop the man in Tsing Yi and give change, but he could chase him out of the door, where was there still a shadow of the man in Tsing Yi.
The man in Tsing Yi who was rushing on the official road was extremely fast, and he shuttled between the trees from time to time, jumping three or five feet, and then disappeared after another jump.
On the flat official road, there was silence, but as the man in Tsing Yi passed, all of them were startled by countless Ya Finch, and the man in Tsing Yi seemed to be tired of this, but he was even more excited to listen to the cry of this Ya Finch.
......
"Little Er, come to a pot of good wine. A bald donkey shouted at the shopkeeper.
Everyone in the Yuelai Inn looked at the monk.
"What are you looking at? I've never seen a bald scoop drinking. The monk made a palm of his right hand, stood on his chest, put his left hand on the table, and shouted at the crowd.
When everyone heard this, they all shook their heads.
"Okay, the Buddha said that all living beings are equal, so why do we have to abide by the rules and precepts?"
When everyone heard this, they all felt that there was some truth in this.
"The Buddha also said that all living beings are suffering, so why do we wait for the bald scoop to suffer in the cold temple to practice? Why don't you see that all living beings are suffering?" said the self-proclaimed bald monk again.
"Monk, don't brag about your Buddhism here, this pot of wine, but the best daughter is red, but can you afford to pay?" The eyes of the guys in the store are definitely first-class.
When everyone heard the words of the shopkeeper, they all laughed.
"What's the matter? How do you know that I can't afford to pay for the wine? Is it because I'm wearing a pair of broken shoes and a torn monk's robe? This is called penance, how can you ordinary people understand?" said the monk, who was wearing tattered clothes and shoes, with the thumb of his left foot exposed, and kept moving his toes as he spoke.
Without waiting for Xiao Er to speak, the monk continued: "Forget it, you ordinary people, how can you understand the joy of our cultivation." ”
"Then you should take out the money for the drink. "It's not that the shopkeeper looks down on people, but this monk has been cheating and drinking here for several days, but he hasn't seen a penny come out.
"Someone will pay for today's wine on my behalf, but you have to bring the wine first. The monk stretched out his hand and snatched the pot of good daughter red in the arms of the shopkeeper.
"You skinny monk, you have been cheating and drinking here for many days, and now you have robbed it openly, is there any royal law in this world?"
But in the face of the shopkeeper's abuse, the monk turned a blind eye, directly opened the wine jug, and drank it to his mouth.
"Come on, someone is eating the overlord meal!" shouted the shopkeeper.
As soon as the shopkeeper shouted, everyone in the Yuelai Inn stood up one after another, staring at the monk who was in tattered clothes and shoes, cheating on food and drink.
But the monk didn't care about this at all, just smiled and said, "This is what you call good wine? Wine mixed with water is also called good wine?" The monk threw the wine jug on the ground, but not a drop of wine spilled out, and it can be seen that the pot of good wine in the mouth of the shopkeeper was all down the monk's stomach.
"This is a good daughter red, how can it be mixed with water?" The shopkeeper heard this, his face turned red, Yuelai Inn never sells water-mixed wine, this has long been a sign in Anhui, but now there are people who are making a fool of themselves here and saying that they are selling fake wine mixed with water.
"This kind of skinny monk is messing around here, everyone go and beat him. I don't know who couldn't get used to this monk who cheated on eating and drinking, and shouted in the crowd.
I saw that everyone raised their fists and hit the skin-throwing monk one after another.
"The Buddha said, "If I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell." The monk stood up awe-inspiringly, as if waiting for everyone to beat him.
"Oh, you're real, don't blame me for fighting back!"
"Oh, don't slap your face, don't slap your face......."
"Ah...... Ah......h
"Don't fight, it hurt......s," the monk cried a little, as if he was really hurt.
......
"Thank you to all the guest officers for teaching this ploppy monk a lesson. The shopkeeper bent down and thanked everyone.
"It's a lot of effort, why worry about it, it doesn't matter what this pungent monk says, but he shouldn't say that this wine is mixed with water, a monk, he shouldn't be a slang, but this is obviously a fake monk. "The one who played the most happily before.
Everyone echoed and accused the monk of being a fake.
The monk with a blue nose and swollen face who was beaten looked at everyone staring at him, cowered at the table, his whole body trembled, and his hands were still on guard against everyone from time to time, for fear that everyone would continue to beat him.
Just when everyone blamed the monk.
Outside the Yuelai Inn appeared a young and beautiful girl, dressed in colorful clothes, dressed in exotic clothes, with a huge bun on her head, and holding a long stick of an unknown tree in her hand.
"Dad, why are you here? Oh, did you have no money to pay the bill and was beaten?" the little girl looked at the monk trembling, and then stepped forward and asked.
"How can you beat my father, isn't it just a few pots of wine, how much is it, this girl pays. The exotic girl said to the shopkeeper.
"This pranky monk, oh no, your father owes a total of ten taels of silver here. The shopkeeper casually said a number, anyway, according to the price of a few pots of wine drunk by the pampering monk, it was almost ten taels of silver.
"Well, that's a lot, wait a minute, I'll look for it. The exotic girl fumbled with herself for a long time, and finally found about eight taels of silver.
But when he was about to continue touching the silver, he turned around and found that the monk was gone.
"Hey, what about my father, did you just see that?" asked the exotic girl.
But everyone watched the little girl touch the silver, but they ignored the trembling monk at the table.
"Oh, you're really useless, you can't even look at a person, I'm leaving, and I still have two taels of silver, remember that next time I come to pay it back, I still have to rush to the foot of Tianzhu Mountain, buy the Oiran for my father, I'm leaving!" After the exotic little girl finished speaking, she kicked the ground, took three steps and made two steps, and walked directly out of the Yuelai Inn without waiting for everyone to react.
