Chapter 11 The Abbot Passed Away in a Drought Thunderbolt Part 1
Chapter 11: The Abbot passed away like a thunderbolt from a dry day (Part 1)
"My favorite thing to read since I was a child is the biographies of great people, because the so-called great people are those who are capable of things that others cannot, and are strong enough to be funny. 26nbsp; If you fall off a cliff, you will have adventures; if you slip on a rainy day, you will have adventures; it is not a discovery
The secret treasure is that a beautiful woman will automatically come to your door, and a bunch of lucky things will line up to come to your door when you eat or sleep. Maybe even a fart can increase your power for a hundred years."
"Hey, what you're reading is called a novel, not a biography of a great man!"
"Oh, do you also think that kind of thing should be called a novel? Then can you explain what your current situation should be called?"
Standing in front of Sun Wu, Xiao Shang put his hands on his hips, raised his brows, and even raised the corners of his mouth. His expression seemed extremely evil. However, compared to Nalan Yuandie who was chasing after him, Sun Wu found that he was still more willing to face him.
To this human disaster before our eyes.
"It's the same when you go out to buy things. If others go to buy things, it will be fine. If you buy things, you will buy something shocking and even demolish the store. With such a grand display, you are worthy of being a hero. But what did you buy when you came back?
What? If you want to buy some wood, you can just buy it in the village instead of coming all the way here, right?"
This was really the most speechless thing about Sun Wu. He was pushed out by Yu Bao Hairpin just now, and after finally escaping, he wanted to go back to help immediately, but Xiao Shang appeared in front of him strangely, stopped him, and asked
When the incident happened, he remembered that the girl he was holding in his arms had been silent for a long time. He quickly lowered his head to look around, but he didn't know that there was nothing in his arms except a piece of rotten wood.
How could such a good person suddenly turn into a piece of rotten wood? Sun Wu couldn't come up with an answer even if he tried hard, so he couldn't possibly have seen a ghost, right?
"Huh? Xiaoshang, are you here alone? Is Xiangling with you?"
"Oh, are you talking about her? We went into the city to look for you, and when we were halfway there, she suddenly said she had a stomachache and wanted to go to the hut, and then ran away. Didn't you see her?"
The answer is naturally no, but when Sun Wu put down the rotten wood in his hand, he suddenly remembered another mysteriously missing person.
"Xiao Shang, have you seen Miss Fei? She came with me, but I don't know when she disappeared... Hey, don't tell me she turned into wood too."
Surprisingly, Xiao Shang's answer was yes, saying that he just saw Fei Lianxiu and a strange man wearing a bamboo hat walking together. The two of them walked to a small alley and didn't know what they were doing.
"... There's only one thing a middle-aged man can do when he walks with a beautiful girl, right? Tsk tsk, I can't tell that she's actually doing this kind of social business with her innocent face. Do you want to consider introducing her to her?
, find a good location in Wanzi Building?"
"Don't say that, it's definitely not what you said!"
"Oh, but don't you think my statement is the most reasonable and the most likely hypothesis?"
"Maybe, but I also think that no matter what ridiculous and weird reason it is, it is much more likely than your theory."
The two of them were having very boring and over-the-age topics. To the ears of passers-by on the road, every word was incredible. Although the words themselves were nothing special, as long as you saw the age of the person speaking, and the innocent and childlike face.
His childish face gave people a strong sense of confusion, and made him feel that the future of the next generation was really dark.
"Xiao Shang, everyone nearby is looking at you! What you said must make them feel that the future of the country is hopeless and dark."
"This country has no future to speak of. No matter what I say, these people will not be put under the sun just because of this... Look at the faces of losers. Successful people will
If we shoulder the responsibility, those who fail will only pass the responsibility to the next generation."
The arrogant speech really attracted people's attention. If an ordinary child had spoken like this, he would have been beaten in the street. But these words came from Xiaoshang's mouth. Because they were said so naturally and arrogantly, they made the onlookers even more surprised.
People were afraid of causing more trouble and causing trouble, so they bowed their heads and dispersed.
"Look, losers always walk away with their tail between their legs, but successful people can stand still and have the last laugh."
"According to you...the bronze statue on the street is the most successful person in the world."
"Of course, if you are not a great man, how can you be qualified to be made into a bronze statue?"
This was completely an unreasonable statement, but because the person involved spoke so confidently, Sun Wu didn't know how to answer. When he was distressed, a figure stumbled over in front of him. She looked like an old lady with a hunched back.
When the two sides got closer, Sun Wu opened his eyes wide and recognized the person.
"Xiang, Xiangling? What's wrong with you? Didn't you say you went to the toilet? Why do you look... like you're exhausted?"
"This...it's hard to explain. I was in the toilet just now when a snake suddenly crawled in. I was almost bitten by the snake. When I was hiding, I accidentally stepped on the air, twisted my foot, and fell to the wall. The result is now
This is what it looks like.”
"Oh, then...then be careful in the future."
Sun Wu found it difficult to comfort such an embarrassing embarrassment. Although she vaguely felt that what Xiang Ling said was somewhat untrue, at this moment, her tired face had a strong look that said "Master, please don't ask any more questions".
Even if I have doubts, I have no choice but to suppress these confusions for the time being.
Different from Sun Wu's attitude, Xiao Shang walked forward directly, held Xiang Ling's right hand, and looked at the ruby ring on his finger carefully. After a long while, he said something meaningful.
"...It's so worn out after just one trip to the toilet. You're working so hard."
"Yes, I have never found the toilet to be so dangerous before. If this happens a few more times, my life will definitely be short."
Looking at Xiao Shang and Xiang Ling, the seemingly friendly smiles on the two women's faces had a chilling feeling. Sun Wu secretly warned himself to be careful next time he went to the toilet.
After the three of them met, they originally wanted to look for Fei Lianxiu first, but it was already dark and it was inconvenient to find someone. The imperial guard group led by Nalan Yuandie was nearby, and the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas was already a troubled place.
It was not advisable to stay for a long time. After the three people discussed it, You Xiangling left marks at several exits from the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas, and the three of them returned to their residence first to wait for Fei Lianxiu's return.
This confusing shopping trip ended very inexplicably, but for Sun Wu, this long day was not over yet. Judging from the seriousness of the matter, it had even just begun.
When Sun Wu and the others returned to the town, they saw Lu Feiyang pacing back and forth at the gate of the town. There were more than a dozen sneaky men behind him, looking at him intently. The dozen men looked at him.
They have always had considerable cultivation, and their kung fu is not weak. It's just that when someone looks at them, they quickly turn their heads, or pull down their bamboo hats to cover their faces, not wanting to be seen by others, which makes them look sneaky.
"Xiao Shang, who is that person behind Uncle Lu?"
"God knows, ninety percent of the time they are here to collect debts. A large group of people are sitting in the back and staring at their spines. Isn't it nice? They must be here to collect debts. Well, maybe they are the creditors of gambling debts."
"No way? Didn't Uncle Lu say he quit gambling?"
"A gambler who says he doesn't gamble anymore is like a psycho who says he has no nerve. Do you even believe that? You are so crazy."
Sun Wu was speechless. He wanted to say that if these people were really creditors collecting gambling debts, Lu Feiyang must be waiting for him to come back and ask for help. Should he take care of this matter? He was still hesitating in his heart. Lu Feiyang had already discovered them and opened his mouth.
call.
"Xiao Wu, you are back. These big...big brothers have been waiting for you for a long time."
Before he finished speaking, the dozen or so big men swarmed up and surrounded the three of Sun Wu. Only then did Sun Wu see clearly that the dozen or so big men were all bald. They wore hats or hats just to prevent others from noticing them.
Their identity, in other words, is to prevent others from knowing that they are from Cihang Jingdian.
"Masters, don't you know what's wrong?"
"Donor Sun, we were sent by the abbot and would like to invite you..."
The monks said that they were the envoys of Cihang Jingdian, and were sent one by one by the temple to invite Sun Wu to Cihang Jingdian. As for why they were so anxious, they didn't even know.
After explaining, another messenger arrived from Cihangjing Palace. This messenger was extremely arrogant. Others were hiding their faces in disguise, but he was shouting loudly, as if he was afraid that others would not know.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, everyone is on fire. If any guy is still in the way, I will hit him with one slap!"
Ren Xianyou pushed his way in, and the monks all dodged as if seeing the plague and took the initiative to make way. However, his arrival directly brought bad news to Sun Wu and others.
"The head abbot suddenly contracted a serious illness and just vomited blood and fell down. The situation is very not optimistic. He told me to take Brother Sun back to see him. If I have any important matters to ask, everyone who knows me should get out of my way and make way for me."
Ren Xuanxang's expression was extremely bad, and he was obviously in a bad mood, but the bad news he brought caused an uproar among the monks, and there was even a "boom" in Sun Wu's mind, remembering what he said when he met Abbot Kucha a few days ago.
His sallow complexion was obviously due to illness.
"Abbot Kucha is ill, but with his peerless martial arts, there is no reason why he would suddenly fall ill, unless he was plotted by someone, or his vitality has been greatly damaged in recent days, so he cannot suppress the pain... Ah! Yes!
Is it because he heals me?" Sun Wu felt that this matter had a lot to do with him, but he felt guilty that Abbot Kucha was eager to see him at such a critical moment. In terms of ability and closeness, Abbot Kucha wanted to see him.
Everyone should be Ren Hanhang. If there is anything about him that is better than Ren Hanhang, it would only be the distressing reason of being an illegitimate child. Before the truth is revealed, I really don’t know what expression to use when meeting Abbot Kucha. But
No matter what, it is a fact that I have received great favor from Abbot 5dw Tea. As long as he entrusts me with something, I will work hard to complete it for him.
"There is no time to delay, Brother Ren, let's set off now!"
"Wait a moment, young master, please let us go with you."
Uneasy, Sun Wu went up to Cihangjing Hall alone. Xiangling and Xiaoshang insisted on following, but Ren Youyou was too lazy to stop them and led the three of them up the mountain.
The protest outside the temple was still going on, and the loud noise could be heard from all the way outside. In order not to be obstructed, Ren Xianyou led the three of them across the path and went straight to Cihang Main Temple. However, after entering the main temple, they were blocked by the temple rules.
, Xiao Shang and Xiang Ling had to stay outside and were not allowed to enter. Only Ren Wanxiang and Sun Wu walked through the buildings and reached the Zen room where the head abbot lived.
As soon as he got there, Sun Wu found that something was not good. Many old monks with white beards and white eyebrows came out with sad faces and sighs. There were also many monks sitting in the yard outside the Zen room, closing their eyes and chanting sutras. That kind of
The atmosphere was not so much praying for blessings, but actually more like doing something to transcend the dead.
"You are here. Brother Abbot has been waiting for you. Come in quickly. The remaining time... I am afraid there is not much time."
A wrinkled old monk opened the wooden door and let Sun Wu and Ren Wandering in. Ren Wandering's face changed drastically and he rushed in without explanation. Sun Wu followed closely behind. As soon as the two people entered, the wooden door was sealed.
The five eminent monks sat cross-legged at the door, closed their eyes and chanted sutras. They not only prayed for the abbot, but also sealed the place to prevent anyone from approaching and hearing the conversations and secrets inside.
