Chapter 171 Three-faced Buddha

Pushing the door open, Dao Yan turned into that unpretentious ascetic again.If one ignores the look of a sick tiger in those triangular eyes, one has to say that he is also a wonderful monk.

Nodding his head to the masked man, Dao Yan sat down in the middle.

"Master Daoyan." The attitude of the envoy of Yanyulou who claimed to be ugly cow could not be said to be respectful or humble. money to do things.

40 taels of silver, 10 taels of bonuses from Dongchang’s boss, 20 taels to Peiping, and 10 taels of tea for my Yanyulou. "

Dao Yan said calmly: "These matters have already been discussed, there is no need to discuss it again, the messenger should speak directly to the business."

"Although the deal has been finalized, there are some things that our host feels we need to discuss again.

Beiping is furiously raising troops and horses, and the money and food consumption is huge, and it is impossible to do without the 20 taels of silver.But Dongchang Tiqi and Jinyi Secret Detective, the two are now spreading their nets in the world, and the rumors are really tight. Although my Yanyu Building has great powers, after all, it is a human being, not a fairy, who handles things. Master understands this truth. "

"What's the meaning of Yanyu Building?"

"The landlord wants to ask the master, is it feasible to ship cash instead of flying money?"

"No." Without the slightest hesitation, Dao Yan immediately shook his head: "This is military salary."

The reason is very straightforward, the military salary paid to soldiers can only be cash.

Beiping was originally the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, and countless rare treasures were left behind when they fled north.Most of these treasures fell into the Nanjing Imperial Palace, but many of them fell into Zhu Di's Yanwang Mansion.

It can be said that Zhu Di is not short of money, as long as he wants to, he can take out anything that is worth thousands of gold and silver, but he can't take it.It's not that he is reluctant, but that it's useless to take it out.

There is a shortage of silver in the north, and the court's current emphasis on development is also in the south.Therefore, when northern merchants involved in large-scale transactions, they usually handed over by bank notes.

But the bank notes can be used, but they cannot be issued to soldiers unless they are exchanged for cash.No way, there is no bank note with such a small amount.Daoyan previously proposed to use overseas silver to make up for the emptiness in Beiping.Unfortunately, the ship capsized at sea, and the previous wave of business lost all money.

This is God's will, and I can't blame others, but the terrible thing is that it's fine if the money and goods are lost, and the boat hasn't returned.This is like a fisherman losing his net, it's all a matter of smashing his job.New ships are still being built, but before that, Peiping needs this money for emergency!
"En." Chou Niu was not surprised by Dao Yan's answer, but just nodded, and then made a second request: "The landlord also expected that the master would not agree, so he said..." Chou Niu coughed for two He cleared his throat, raised his eyebrows, and said loudly: "There are too many relationships that need to be opened up, so 10 taels of silver is not enough. Please forgive me, master."

"Excessive asking price, pay back the money on the spot. The poor monk still understands the rules of the business field. Let the envoy tell you the amount, just don't go too far. After all, this money..."

"No money." Chou Niu waved his hand, and then picked up the tea bowl from the table: "The landlord heard that the master has a colorful jade three-faced Buddha? Our landlord is very happy and wants to see it. I wonder if the master is willing to part with it?" The tea was brought to his mouth, gently blowing the water surface to float a little, took a sip, and waited for Dao Yan's reply.

As a human being, there will always be desires and weaknesses.

If Wang Tu's hegemony is Dao Yan's desire, then the colorful jade three-faced Buddha mentioned by Chou Niu is one of his few weaknesses.

He reached into his arms, and a moment later, a jade sculpture appeared in Dao Yan's hand:
With three heads and six arms, the dharma body sits on the throne of the lotus platform.The faces of the three heads show one joy, one anger and one compassion.

The happy face is on the left, the eyebrows are curved, and the smile is always open;

The angry face is on the right, with staring eyes and sharp teeth.

Only the benevolent face in the middle has a beautiful face and frowns tightly.Looking down, it seems to be sad for the suffering of the world.

The Dharma body of the Jade Buddha sits on the throne of the lotus platform, with six arms waving up and down, each holding an exquisite Dharma vessel.

This carving skill alone is already worth millions of dollars, but on top of that, this beautiful jade material is also rare in the world.

The whole body is moist and white, crystal clear, like curdled fat.

The dharma body is white like goat milk, the lotus platform is green and emerald, the happy face is blue, the angry face is red, and the compassionate face in the middle is yellow.

Finding things intertwined, just like a natural process.

A priceless treasure, this is a priceless treasure!

Chou Niu was stunned for a moment, and as soon as he gave it away, the tea bowl fell to the ground and broke into several petals.

"Before his death, my mentor said that the poor monk is destined to kill countless people in his life, and bring disaster to the country and the people. He can't go against the sky, but he hopes that I can carry this jade Buddha with me, absorb the hostility, calm my mind, and realize the true meaning of Buddhism."

A pair of triangular eyes showed a rare gentle expression in front of the Jade Buddha, and Dao Yan, who had always kept few words, seemed a little chattering at this moment.

"Since the poor monk got this Jade Buddha, he kowtowed three times in the morning and evening, and burned incense in the morning and evening, rain or shine. Daily homework is also done in front of this Jade Buddha.

Ashamed to say, the poor monk searched through the classics, but he didn't know the identity of this Jade Buddha.But this is the only Buddha in the heart of the poor monk. "

Speaking of this, Dao Yan raised his head and looked at the ugly cow with a little confused eyes: "Your landlord wants it?"

"..." Chou Niu didn't answer. Hearing what Dao Yan said, he felt that the other party had already rejected it.He can also understand that if this Jade Buddha belongs to him, it may be difficult for anyone to make him call it out willingly.Even if the other party really gave this Jade Buddha to him, himself. . .Will he be handed over to the landlord?His eyes were startled, and he almost jumped up in fright at his bold idea.

"The poor monk can give it." Dao Yan nodded with a smile, got up and put the Jade Buddha on the table next to the ugly cow: "But you have to do more for the poor monk, otherwise the poor monk will lose money .”

"You... you said." Ugly Cow's voice was low and hoarse.It took some effort to say the three words, as if they were squeezed out from between the teeth.

"It's still the same conditions as before, the head of Mr. Dongchang." Daoyan sat back opposite Chou Niu again: "Before, you said that 10 taels of silver was not suitable and could only bloom a red flower? This time, add this jade Buddha , the poor monk thinks it should be very suitable."

"Okay." Chou Niu nodded vigorously, then stood up, holding the Jade Buddha in his arms.He wanted to play with it in his hands, but he didn't dare.He was afraid that he would not be able to restrain his greed.

In fact, he didn't have the right to agree to Dao Yan's conditions, but he still agreed, cutting first and playing later.Because he believed that the landlord would agree to anything when he saw the Jade Buddha.

The moment the footsteps stepped out of the door, a gentle voice came from behind: "Be careful, don't break it."

. . . . . .

"There is no City God Temple here at all!"

Wujun City, which is today's Gusu District of Suzhou, also known as Wu County, has been an important town in the southeast since ancient times, and it is prosperous and prosperous.

Hua Pengfei came here seven days ago, but he has not been in the mood to play, or from a certain point of view, he has been playing, although he is very anxious in his heart.

He made an appointment with Xu Ruyi to meet at the foot of Mount Shaoshi two months later.Hurrying all the way, three good horses ran away to death, and they rushed here to find the treasure under the Town God's Temple, forty miles east of Wujun City, which Xu Ruyi said.Counting the journey to Mount Shaoshi, he would have about ten days, but now seven days have passed, and he still has nothing.

Town God's Temple, [-] miles east of Wujun City.

This description sounds very accurate, but there are actually only two key points, that is, "Wu Juncheng" and "Temple of the City God".

Wujun City is too big, the east wall is more than six miles long, and the east of the city is forty miles. These two conditions add up to an area of ​​several thousand mu, among which there are many hills and dense forests.

So in the final analysis, the fastest way is to find out the location of the Town God's Temple in Wujun City.

Hua Pengfei is now in Wujun City, but he asked all over the city, and even sneaked into the county government last night to look through the county records, but he didn't find that there was a Town God's Temple in Wujun.Not abandoned, but never built!
Well, this is actually quite suspicious, you know.China has been a polytheistic country since ancient times.The land of mountain gods, city gods and judges, these fairy temples are countless.Wujun is a big city and a famous city.There are mountain temples, there are earth temples, and there is even a Guan Gong temple in the north that is not short.But there is no Chenghuang Temple.

This is indeed strange.But at this moment, although I am curious, how can I find the time to get to the bottom of it?

Vigorously tore off the thigh of the fat chicken on the plate, stuffed it in his mouth, bit and swallowed.Then he picked up the wine jar on the table and drank it up: "Damn it, I will go out with my eyes closed for a while, and the first person I bump into will give him ten taels of silver, and then I will ask one more time. I don't know, I just ran for three days in the east of the city. If it doesn't work, that's the only way to go!"

After making up his mind, Hua Pengfei started stuffing himself with nonsense.

The thoughts are clear, and the appetite is also greatly increased.Two fat chickens, except for the chicken heads and bones, all the rest went into his stomach. In addition, there was a pound of sauced beef, a drawer of steamed buns, a plate of crystal mixed meat, and a jar of good quality meat. Daughter red.

"Little Er, account!"

"Here comes the guest officer!" Xiaoer yelled briskly, and walked up to him with small steps, holding a small bag in his hand: "Objective, it's a total of four taels of silver. In addition, this is the drunk duck and fat chicken you want. The steamed buns have been wrapped for you."

"I'll reward you for the rest." Hua Pengfei casually threw a large ingot of silver on the table, reached out to take the bag from the little second hand, got up and left.

"Be objective, go slowly." Xiaoer happily took the silver ingot in his hand, weighed it, and his face burst into joy: "Good guy, there must be about ten taels, and this is really a fortune. .”

Let’s not mention the elated look on the waiter’s side. Hua Pengfei walked to the door of the tavern carrying his baggage. Just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly heard the decision he had just made: “Okay, I’ll give it to you again.” A chance for the people of Wu County!"

Thinking of this, he closed his eyes and stepped out the door.Without picking a direction, there is actually no direction at all.Closing his eyes is only one aspect, on the other hand, the food was delicious just now, he really drank too much.When I was sitting, I hadn't responded to one cup after another, but when I got up and walked a few steps, when the wind blew, I suddenly felt a little overwhelmed by the wind.

Turning around, I didn't know how many steps I took, and I didn't know what I bumped into. Before I could open my eyes, I fell to the ground with a "bang", fell asleep, and murmured: Wu Jun can still drink such authentic Nurhong, God treats me well..."

After a good night's sleep, when I opened my eyes again, I don't know what time it is, I only know that the crescent moon is in the sky and the stars are dim.He didn't actually get enough sleep, but he still woke up, it couldn't be helped, it was too cold.

Looking down again, the burden is gone, the clothes and money on the body are gone.But fortunately, the local folk customs are not that bad, and he left a pair of pants for him.

"Tch, I knew it would be like this." Hua Pengfei patted his buttocks and stood up, feeling a little pain in his neck, which might be a stiff neck.

His expression was relaxed, without the slightest hint of frustration.But thinking about it, money is really not an important thing to him, how can the famous "Yunlong Jiuxian" worry about money?
Looking around, I seem to be in a remote alley, there are no people around, and the doors of every house are closed.Looking up at the moonlight, I deduced that it should be the second watch, and normal people are sleeping at home again.

Walking a few steps forward, walking to the street, the restaurant where you drink during the day is not far away, looking around, Hua Pengfei shook his head and smiled wryly: "I wanted to find someone to inquire about the Temple of the City God, but at this hour, where can I see a living person?"

Just thinking about it, I heard three gongs not far from the east: "The sky is dry and the things are dry, be careful of the fire and candles."

Hua Pengfei clapped his hands and laughed, "That's right, besides me, isn't there anyone else here?"

Taking steps forward, Hua Pengfei quietly came behind the watchman in a few moments: "This big brother!"

"Oh my god!!!" Suddenly, the watchman was startled and almost lost his breath.

When the watchman came back to his senses and turned around and saw Hua Pengfei's appearance clearly, he patted his chest and felt relieved.In the end, he was an honest person and didn't yell at him.

"I said brother." The watchman in his 40s looked a little helpless: "It's so late at night, and you make every movement when you walk, which scares me to death."

Wu Nong spoke softly, and it was a bit difficult to listen to, but fortunately, Hua Pengfei was familiar with various dialects after traveling all over the world.Immediately speaking with a somewhat crappy local accent, he apologized and replied: "Brother, I'm sorry, but my younger brother is born silent when walking. I drank too much alcohol today, passed out, and was picked up by someone. Just woke up, maybe you Didn't see it."

The watchman looked up and down and nodded: "So that's the case. It doesn't matter, you will follow me for two more streets in a while, and then come home with me. I will find you some clothes. Don't freeze them at night." .We poor families suffer from illnesses.”

"Thank you, big brother, thank you very much, big brother." Hua Pengfei cupped his hands again and again.

According to the current situation, about 20 minutes later, the watchman took Hua Pengfei to finish calling out the streets and alleys he was in charge of, then hung the gong on his waist, and walked towards the house: "What do you say?" You are so careless, you dare to drink a lot of wine when you are alone, and you are not afraid of drinking your life."

　Thanks to the two bosses "Yan Zhiyan" and "Sixteen Nights" for their comments and recommendation votes, Maoer is very grateful.
