Respect the little husband [farming]
Chapter 66
Hanxuan Courtyard.
Shen Wenxuan dug a big ball of ointment from the medicine box and put it on Jiao Shihan's hands, from the palm to the back of the hand, from the fingertips to the wrists, even the crevices of the fingers, massaging while applying it.
Jiao Shihan, who was sitting opposite, stretched out his hands and was a little itchy by him, and couldn't help laughing twice, but the color on his face was very pale, and even the smile on his mouth was diluted by the color.
Shen Wenxuan glanced at him with a smile: "How do you feel?"
"It's warm, very comfortable." Jiao Shihan smiled, took advantage of Shen Wenxuan's downcast eyes and leaned over to kiss him on the bridge of his nose. After the kiss, he didn't move away as quickly as before, but stopped very close to him, waiting He raised his eyes to look over, and suddenly met his gaze, breathing lightly and softly on his face.
The atmosphere became ambiguous for a moment.
Shen Wenxuan stared at his light brown eyes, unable to resist the temptation, smoothed the distance between him and him, bit his lips lightly and kissed him lightly.
Jiao Shihan felt a little hot on his face. He straightened his upper body and looked down at his hands. What he just applied was warm ointment. After applying it, he would feel warm. After applying it on his hands, he would also apply it to his feet and neck. Dr. Zhao said Good for people with cold hands and feet.
Shen Wenxuan glanced at his pinkish ear tips and cheeks, scooped up a big ball of ointment in his hand and approached him, lifted his hair with the other hand and held it, exposing his slender, white neck, applied the ointment, and touched it with his fingers. Caressing and wiping away bit by bit:
"Why do I feel that you have been a little aggressive recently?"
Jiao Shihan tilted his neck slightly to make it easier for him to paint, and his face looked ignorant, as if he didn't know what he was talking about: "Is there any?"
Glancing at Shen Wenxuan's funny gaze, Jiao Shihan's eyes flashed, his fingers gradually slid to the back of his neck, where the fingers smeared with ointment were caressing back and forth without knowing it, strange tremors ran all over his body like electricity, Jiao Shihan held him tight for a split second. He drew back his skirt, tucked his neck in, covered the back and said:
"I, I wipe it myself, just wipe it myself."
The whole person was as red as a lantern.
Shen Wenxuan was puzzled, but he still helped him brush his hair and let him do it himself.
Jiao Shihan wiped her own neck with shaking hands, then lifted one foot, stepped on the chair she was sitting on and wiped her own feet, Shen Wenxuan watched from the opposite side.
"Because you like it very much, you will be very happy if I am active." Jiao Shihan lowered her head and whispered, although it is still uncomfortable to be too close, but if it makes him happy, it will be uncomfortable.
Shen Wenxuan paused, touched his nose and felt his heart beat a little faster: "I'm happier when you're happy."
Jiao Shihan smiled, glanced at him, lifted the other foot and handed it to him.
......
In the front yard, Wang Muze crossed his arms and looked at the merchants in the yard looking for trouble, his face expressionless.
"Anyway, we don't care, Shen Wenxuan must give us an explanation!" said the leader, Boss Wang, with a sullen expression on his face, "Those nephews of our family have been studying in Hongzhang Academy for five or six years. After killing that Layman Weixiu, our children were kicked out, for so many years, is it easy for us to coax and enshrine those officials and lords?"
"It goes without saying how much energy our merchant family put in to send our children in. Let's just say how much money we invested in it, at least a few hundred thousand taels of white money. Is it possible that this money has been poured into the water like this?"
Yu Tang frowned and retorted: "How can you blame the Shen family? Back then, all your money went into the pockets of those officials, and none of the money went here. If you have the ability to ask those officials, what are you doing here? ?”
"You stand aside, Yu Ziqiu of your family has not been kicked out, so naturally standing and talking will not hurt your back." Boss Wang said.
Yu Tang: "Our young master is both good in character and learning, whoever lets your family members in is a bastard, and besides, the admissions test will be in a few days, so those nephews who were kicked out can just go for the test again? "
"Whether you take the test or not is our business, anyway, you have to pay for the money!"
Those who were kicked out would not be kicked out if they had the ability to pass the admission test, and they knew this, so they insisted on asking for money.
Wang Muze stood up straight with his hands behind his back, with a calm expression, and said, "Money? No, even if you stand here to die, you don't want the Shen family to pay you a penny."
Boss Wang: "You—"
The people behind approached his ears to discuss a few words. Boss Wang thought for a while, and he was not in a hurry anymore. He said with confidence:
"Since the Shen family is so unkind, then we people don't have to be polite to your Shen family. Not only will we not have any business dealings with your Shen family from now on, but we will also clean up the previous business. People! Go and get all the colored glaze, porcelain, antiques, wooden utensils, etc. from the Shen family, we want to return them!"
Yu Tang frowned, there is no such thing as returning the item that has been sold.
"Okay, no problem," Wang Muze said, with a lazy voice, as if he didn't care at all, "As long as everyone's things are intact and there are no bumps, our Shen family will definitely support returns. .”
After returning it and shipping it to the border and selling it to Jiangnan, the price that can be sold is even higher, who is afraid of whom?
Hearing this, the merchants looked at each other secretly, and couldn't help hesitating towards the Shen family's candid attitude. In the end, it was Boss Wang who made the final decision and said, "Retire!"
The steward moved the tables and chairs and put them in the yard. Wang Muze looked through the ledger while holding a magnifying glass to check whether the items were damaged: "Hey, have you used this tea set? You can't return the used tea set and tableware. "
"Why can't I withdraw? I'm fine."
"You don't mind drinking tea from someone else's cup with you? Joke, next one."
"That's fine. I'll refund you 8000 taels. Keep it. It won't be this price if you want it next time."
Boss Wang took out a pair of jade research, a brush washer, a glass table case, a large enamel bottle, and the glass bead hairpin bought by his wife, and looked at Wang Muze proudly.
All these were refunded, but it was more than the money they asked for. He didn't believe that the Shen family could stand up to him without heart.
Wang Muze smiled after checking the account book: "What? Boss Wang's pair of presbyopic glasses are not refundable? They are worth a lot of money."
Boss Wang was taken aback, blushed, and said angrily, "Why do you care so much? If you want to withdraw, you can withdraw."
"Okay, okay, let me show you first..."
On the other side, Shen Wenxuan took Jiao Shihan and left in a carriage through the back door, followed by many servants and guards.
Today is the [-]th day, just in time for the people of Heping Yuefu to burn incense and worship Buddha, Shen Wenxuan took out the amulet from his sleeve, thinking about what the crazy monk said that day, he became more and more concerned, this time he went to Chongfu Temple to find that monk by the way Ask again.
Jiao Shihan took the amulet out of his hand and tied it around his waist: "It's the right way to wear it."
Shen Wenxuan hugged him and touched the top of his head.
Zhao Erhe and Yanqi rode horses to protect the two sides, and the soldiers patrolling along the way had to give way to them, but a few of them secretly looked at each other when they saw the Shen family, and when they reached the intersection, they secretly turned and left. team.
Chongfu Temple was farther than the blacksmith shop we went to before. When we got there, two hours had passed. Shen Wenxuan pinched Jiao Shihan's waist and pressed it for him: "Are you tired? When I go up the stairs later, I will hold you up."
"No, you must be sincere in worshiping Buddha. How can you not climb the mountain ladder to enter the temple by yourself? And I am not tired, I have slept all the way."
Jiao Shihan pulled him down from the carriage. Hearing that he was going to worship the Buddha today, he specially changed into some lighter clothes, and pulled Shen Wenxuan to start climbing the stairs one by one.
The temple is on the top of the mountain, but the gate of the temple is at the foot of the mountain. There are three characters of "Chongfu Temple" written on the majestic archway. Many vendors sell food, drink, prayer beads, Buddha statues, etc. here. It is very lively. Many of them The peddler is still a monk, but I don't know whether it is a real monk or a fake monk.
The mountain ladder has 970 steps and there are quite a few people climbing it. Jiao Shihan couldn't move when he climbed one-tenth of the way. ...no, half tea time."
Shen Wenxuan smiled, pulled him over and picked him up by the waist, and continued to walk up.
Jiao Shihan: "No—"
"Why not? I'll hold you up to show that I have double sincerity. Tell me what you want to achieve. I'll help you tell the Buddha."
Jiao Shihan blushed and held back for a while, and when he climbed halfway up the mountain, he whispered: "Then tell him to bless you to live to be a hundred years old."
Shen Wenxuan paused for a few breaths before continuing to walk, and asked, "Why?"
With his physique, it might not be so easy to think of a short life.
"You should wish yourself to live to be a hundred years old, and then I will wish you to live to be a hundred years old."
Get a double buff.
Jiao Shihan retorted: "Because I will try my best to live to be a hundred years old only if you live to be a hundred years old. It is useless to only bless me."
Shen Wenxuan looked down at him, he was nestled in his arms like a cat, everything was soft, obedient and warm, Shen Wenxuan raised his hand and silently hugged him tighter, his heart was surprisingly soft : "You are the best at flirting with people at every turn."
"I do not have."
Killing is taboo in the temple. Except for the young servants, all the guards with sabers were stopped outside the temple gate. Yan Qi stayed at the foot of the mountain to guard, while Zhao Er took people to the exit of the back mountain. Imports and exports are not the same.
Chongfu Temple is solemn and dignified, but it has a long history and looks a bit old, but everything is cleaned very clean.
The monk who received him turned around and led the way after performing the Buddhist ceremony. Jiao Shihan bought a palm-sized tortoise from the monk guarding the pool, and released it in the pool. Wen Xuan felt cute and patted his head.
The main hall, the Mahavira Hall, enshrines the Buddhas of the third generation - Medicine Buddha, Sakyamuni, and Amitabha.
As soon as Shen Wenxuan entered the door, he saw Huizhen, the abbot who had come to pick him up, was sitting on the futon with his eyes closed, beeping, beeping, and chanting sutras on a wooden fish. Falling asleep on him, the saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth like silk and fell on Huizhen's clothes, and he couldn't bear to look directly at him.
Jiao Shihan waited for the people in front to walk a few steps before kneeling on the futon, and the young monk at the table brought an incense burner and three sticks of incense, lit them and handed them to Jiao Shihan. Jiao Shi inserted the first stick of incense in the middle, and said silently in her heart: Make offerings Buddha, awakened but not enlightened, the right side of the second branch-support the law, righteous but not evil, the left side of the third branch-make offerings to the monk, clean but not defiled, and then worship with palms together.
Standing next to him, Shen Wenxuan looked up at the three Buddha statues. He didn't kneel, but stood upright. He looked down at the altar and asked, "I heard that the more incense money you donate, the more merit you have? Is there such a thing?" reason?"
The sound of the abbot knocking on the wooden fish stopped, he opened his eyes and looked at him, saw that he was a young man whom he had met by chance before, and said with a smile: "It's all from the heart, I don't care about the money."
Shen Wenxuan bowed slightly and bowed to him. A group of servants waiting outside the door came in with a tray covered by a red cloth. When the red cloth was lifted, there were neatly arranged gold ingots on it. Shen Wenxuan took it like a splash of water. He poured it into the merit box like a clatter, and everyone around took a breath and stared at him in shock.
Jiao Shihan paused, and immediately worshiped more piously.
"Building a golden body for the Buddha should prove my sincerity." Shen Wenxuan said, stood upright with palms together, and bowed.
The merits and virtues are all added to Ajiao, don't give them to him, and bless Ajiao with health, longevity and peace every year.
Huizhen stared at the overcrowded merit box with wide eyes, her eyes lighted up quietly, she got up and took the bamboo tube on the altar table and said with a smile: "Ask for lottery and divination, benefactor, take one."
Shen Wenxuan pulled Ajiao to get up, flicked his lower garment, looked at the sticks in the bamboo tube and picked one, and signed the text: Sending sutras and offering oil to worship the Buddha, eliminating disasters and changing bad luck.
Huizhen glanced at it and said with a smile: "Shangping is a sign of turning bad luck into good fortune, so it's easy to sign."
Turn evil into good fortune?Shen Wenxuan changed his mind, silently squeezed A Jiao's hand, and said with a smile, "Thank you abbot."
"You're lying, there is only one Shangping in the bamboo tube, and the others are all signed and signed, and it is the worst." Hui Ji said with her eyes closed, turned over on the futon, and lay flat.
Huizhen was embarrassed for a while: "This...this asking for a lottery is just asking for auspiciousness, it is not a lie."
The smile on the corner of Shen Wenxuan's mouth disappeared in an instant, and he threw the stick back into the bamboo tube, took out the handkerchief and wiped his stinky hands, looked at Huiji and asked, "Those words you said that day—"
"Ah?" Hui Ji opened a crack and looked over, his mind was empty, "Who are you?"
Shen Wenxuan paused, the monk was really talking crazy, he rolled his eyes and ignored it, and asked: "Does the temple light lamps for Buddha? My husband is not in good health, and I want to light a lamp for him to live longer." .”
"Yes, yes, yes," Huizhen stepped aside, and said, "Sponsor, please move."
Hui Ji lay there silent for a while, with a serious and serious expression, and got up to follow after their backs disappeared around the corner.
In the back hall of the temple, there are twenty Buddhas, eighteen Arhats, and eighteen Avalokitesvara carved on the wall. The room is dark and cannot be ventilated. There are hundreds if not thousands of ever-burning lamps, which are the only light here. Huizhen engraved Jiao Shihan's birth date on the lamps. , The wish he prayed for was handed over to Jiao Shihan and he went out.
There were only the two of them left in the room. After Jiao Shihan carefully lit the ever-burning lamp, she held it upright in front of the Buddha with both hands.
The base of the ever-burning lamp was in the shape of a lotus flower, made of copper, and was somewhat blackened by the wick. Jiao Shihan lowered his head and touched the corner lightly, looking a little silent under the warm yellow candlelight.
Shen Wenxuan grabbed his hand tightly and squeezed it, and said with relief: "Doctor Zhao is studying the medical book left by his master, and there is a case on it that is very similar to yours. After a while, Jiao Jiao will be a healthy child." .”
Jiao Shihan pursed her lips and smiled, but her heart was still uneasy. After a long silence, she asked softly: "If, I mean, if, if I haven't recovered, what should I do? If I... have something to do first— "
"I'll be with you." Shen Wenxuan said, his expression was so indifferent that he didn't seem to say it casually.
Jiao Shihan stared at him blankly for a long time, his heart was churning strangely, and he stumbled and said: "I, what I said just now is if, I will definitely live for a long time."
Shen Wenxuan smiled, warm light shone into his eyes, very gentle: "Go out, you can't stay here for long."
Jiao Shihan nodded, leaned on his shoulder like a large pendant and walked out, her ears and cheeks slowly turned red.
......
Yan Qi squatted in the open space outside the temple gate, playing chess with his brothers in a circle, or holding a branch to draw a chessboard and chess pieces on the ground:
"Ham, if I knew it was waiting at the bottom of the mountain, I would bring some cards or something. It would be great to play leaf games. This chess is boring."
Yan Qi complained, raised his head and looked at the surrounding vendors, their mouths were all taken away, the steamed buns sold here didn't want to eat, so he ordered his brother to buy a fruit plate, and served them with them while eating.
"Boss is so good. He is so good at playing Go now, but he didn't even know how to play Go before."
Yan Qi waved his hand: "Damn, aren't you used to watching Dad and Lao Wentou play chess all day long, and you'll get used to it."
As he spoke, he looked up, and saw that a group of punks had just entered at the foot of the mountain, bare-chested, bare-faced, and he paused for a moment before going over to have a look, only to hear:
"My car will eat you!"
Yan Qi came back to his senses suddenly: "Wait a minute! Why did you eat my general? You are wrong! Take it back, take it back..."
The few people who were drinking tea in the shed took a few glances at them, and covered themselves tightly in coir raincoats. While they were having fun, the leader got up and left the tea shed, showed the token to the monk at the gate, and led the people. He walked up the mountain ladder quickly, and the man with the corner of his clothes exposed was a soldier from the Jia Bing Battalion.
......
At noon, Jiao Shihan and Shen Wenxuan had a fast meal in the temple. After resting in the hut for a while, it was the end of the time. Shen Wenxuan took Jiao Shihan and Huizhen to say goodbye, and went down the mountain along the bamboo forest path in the back mountain.
"Isn't it okay to fast in the temple for a few days?" Jiao Shihan asked, puffing up his face and not wanting to go down the mountain so early.
"No, it's not safe to live here in the wilderness." Shen Wenxuan squeezed his puffed cheeks and coaxed, "If you like to worship Buddha, you can also build a temple at home."
Jiao Shihan nodded, going down the mountain was easier than going up, and it was a winding path, Shen Wenxuan supported his waist and walked down slowly.
After confirming that they could no longer see this place, the four soldiers stopped at the entrance of the mountain: "This road can't go on, the suspension bridge below is broken, change to another road, don't look here, get out!"
......
It was almost halfway down the mountain before Shen Wenxuan realized that something was wrong. He had been paying attention to Jiao Shihan before, and then he felt that it was too quiet behind him. Apart from the servants he brought, there were no other pilgrims around.
Shen Wenxuan looked at the bluestone steps under his feet: "Are you sure this is the way?"
Defu glanced around, scratched his hair, and said, "This is the way, young master, is there any problem?"
"...No," Shen Wenxuan felt uneasy, leaned over to pick up Jiao Shihan and walked down the mountain quickly.
"Defu, run to the front and ask Zhao Er to come up to pick him up."
"Eh."
In the depths of the bamboo grove, the bandit leader flicked the kitchen knife in his hand a few times, decisively killing the bound monk's life, blood spattered, the bandit leader wiped the blood from his face, glanced at the blood on the tip of the knife, and enjoyed took a sip.
Except for the monk who had just been killed, there were five or six corpses of monks piled up next to them.
A few brothers behind were chopping bamboo and sharpening it. They came in a hurry, and they didn't bury their knives in advance. This ruined temple didn't allow them to bring knives up, so they had to steal a few kitchen knives, axes, and sickles from the kitchen.
"Boss," a subordinate ran over from the front and whispered in his ear, "a man dressed as a servant left first."
The bandit leader didn't care, and continued to sharpen his knife on the stone: "Don't scare the snake right now, he will run to the foot of the mountain for a while, we have time."
"Eh."
When he saw Shen Wenxuan coming down, the bandit leader took out the portrait and compared it carefully: "Brothers, you can see clearly, this is the only person, after finishing this ticket, we will take the money to eat and drink spicy food, You don't have to worry about half your life."
The people who followed looked at each other, smiled in unison, raised their feet and followed silently.
When crossing the suspension bridge, Shen Wenxuan stopped, frowned and looked at the length of the suspension bridge and the continuous flow of Yuejiang River below. Shen Wenxuan touched the wooden piles of the suspension bridge carefully, and there was no trace of movement. There is no one in the end, there must be a problem, but I don't know where the problem lies.
After ordering the two servants to go over first to make sure that there was no problem with the suspension bridge, Shen Wenxuan dragged Jiao Shihan to step on it. Jiao Shihan held Ah Xuan's hand tightly, and couldn't help feeling nervous when he saw his expression.
Just when a group of people walked to the middle, a sudden change occurred.
Like wild dogs descending the mountain from the front port, many people rushed out of the woods. They cut two young servants each with a knife and kicked them down the cliff, but they were not in the Yuejiang River.
Immediately after that, a group suddenly rose up, and the bandit leader rushed out fiercely to hack people, screaming again and again.
The boy who hadn't had time to get on the suspension bridge was the first to be killed. The gangsters blocked the front and back, and approached like a cannibal with the guy in his hand. The crowd wanted to escape. Steady, was thrown down.
"Plop" several water sounds.
"Ah, ah, ah, help."
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
Shen Wenxuan grabbed the waist-high protective net with one hand, and hugged Jiao Shihan tightly with the other. There was a human wall behind him, but the people in front had already forced him over.
Taking a deep breath, Shen Wenxuan took off his belt and tied Jiao Shihan's hand to the protective rope: "Squat here, hold on to the rope net tightly, and don't move around."
"Ah Xuan!"
Jiao Shihan's hairs stood on end, staring at him closely and rushed up.
Shen Wenxuan threw off his coat to block the sight of the people coming in front, and while they couldn't see clearly the belly of the person who was kicked in front, he grabbed the ax from his hand, and chopped it down without saying a word.
Isn't it just killing people?Like no one has ever played.
"Take the knife from their hands! Slash back! Whoever cuts the most people, I will give him ten thousand taels of gold!"
The bandit leader licked the blood from the knife, his eyes were as red as an evil ghost, he stared at Shen Wenxuan's figure and pushed away the people who blocked his way, and walked behind him on the suspension bridge as if walking on level ground, and raised his knife to chop——
"Ah Xuan!!!"
Shen Wenxuan turned his head sideways to dodge the point of the knife, and the ax in his hand hit the back of his head following inertia. With a sound of "boom", the bandit leader was taken aback, staggered two steps forward, and touched it. There was blood in one hand at the back of the head, his face contorted immediately, he raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, slashing wildly like a violent bison.
Because Shen Wenxuan was on his side and his feet were unstable, he clung to the net and fell on the bridge deck. Before he could catch his breath, he hurriedly dodged the knife cut by the bandit leader. The bridge decks were either cracked or shattered, attached several times.
In the next breath, the bridge deck under their feet collapsed, and the other people on one side were also dragged into the water and fell into the Yuejiang River.
Shen Wenxuan narrowly grasped the bridge on the other side with one hand, the veins on his hand were bulging, his feet were hanging in the air, and he was holding an ax in the other hand. He caught a glimpse of the bandit leader who was a few steps away grabbing the guard net and trying to climb up. Gritting his teeth, he swung the ax in his hand and smashed it violently.
fuck you!
Out of the corner of his eye, the bandit leader shuddered, and he let go of the net and fell into the river without being hit.
Shen Wenxuan grasped the bridge with both hands, while Jiao Shihan pulled off the belt with trembling hands, crawled over to grab his hands and tried to pull him up with all his strength, panting for breath.
By the time Shen Wenxuan supported his upper body across the bridge, the servants on the suspension bridge were already dead. Seeing the broken bridge, the gangsters on the other side did not dare to cross again. The water hyacinth sprinkled the wine or oil inside on the bridge, and found out the fire bag, and it seemed that it was about to be lighted.
Hey!
Shen Wenxuan frowned, and before the flames rushed over, he hugged Jiao Shihan's waist with one hand and dragged him down. At the same time, he let go of the other hand to protect Ajiao's head and fell on his back.
The suspension bridge was engulfed in flames, and the fragments of planks fell down with sparks. Shen Wenxuan watched helplessly as one of them whirled towards him, getting bigger and bigger in his field of vision. In the next second, his eyes went black and he lost consciousness.
......
At Xiangguo Temple, there was a "click", which was very clear in the silent meditation room. Huisheng paused his movements, and slowly opened his eyes. The expression on his face was neither sad nor happy. Wooden fish... cracked.
作者有话要说:感谢在2021-02-0622:17:55~2021-02-0819:07:07期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
Thanks to the little angel of irrigation nutrient solution: West Building AAAAA10 bottles;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Shen Wenxuan dug a big ball of ointment from the medicine box and put it on Jiao Shihan's hands, from the palm to the back of the hand, from the fingertips to the wrists, even the crevices of the fingers, massaging while applying it.
Jiao Shihan, who was sitting opposite, stretched out his hands and was a little itchy by him, and couldn't help laughing twice, but the color on his face was very pale, and even the smile on his mouth was diluted by the color.
Shen Wenxuan glanced at him with a smile: "How do you feel?"
"It's warm, very comfortable." Jiao Shihan smiled, took advantage of Shen Wenxuan's downcast eyes and leaned over to kiss him on the bridge of his nose. After the kiss, he didn't move away as quickly as before, but stopped very close to him, waiting He raised his eyes to look over, and suddenly met his gaze, breathing lightly and softly on his face.
The atmosphere became ambiguous for a moment.
Shen Wenxuan stared at his light brown eyes, unable to resist the temptation, smoothed the distance between him and him, bit his lips lightly and kissed him lightly.
Jiao Shihan felt a little hot on his face. He straightened his upper body and looked down at his hands. What he just applied was warm ointment. After applying it, he would feel warm. After applying it on his hands, he would also apply it to his feet and neck. Dr. Zhao said Good for people with cold hands and feet.
Shen Wenxuan glanced at his pinkish ear tips and cheeks, scooped up a big ball of ointment in his hand and approached him, lifted his hair with the other hand and held it, exposing his slender, white neck, applied the ointment, and touched it with his fingers. Caressing and wiping away bit by bit:
"Why do I feel that you have been a little aggressive recently?"
Jiao Shihan tilted his neck slightly to make it easier for him to paint, and his face looked ignorant, as if he didn't know what he was talking about: "Is there any?"
Glancing at Shen Wenxuan's funny gaze, Jiao Shihan's eyes flashed, his fingers gradually slid to the back of his neck, where the fingers smeared with ointment were caressing back and forth without knowing it, strange tremors ran all over his body like electricity, Jiao Shihan held him tight for a split second. He drew back his skirt, tucked his neck in, covered the back and said:
"I, I wipe it myself, just wipe it myself."
The whole person was as red as a lantern.
Shen Wenxuan was puzzled, but he still helped him brush his hair and let him do it himself.
Jiao Shihan wiped her own neck with shaking hands, then lifted one foot, stepped on the chair she was sitting on and wiped her own feet, Shen Wenxuan watched from the opposite side.
"Because you like it very much, you will be very happy if I am active." Jiao Shihan lowered her head and whispered, although it is still uncomfortable to be too close, but if it makes him happy, it will be uncomfortable.
Shen Wenxuan paused, touched his nose and felt his heart beat a little faster: "I'm happier when you're happy."
Jiao Shihan smiled, glanced at him, lifted the other foot and handed it to him.
......
In the front yard, Wang Muze crossed his arms and looked at the merchants in the yard looking for trouble, his face expressionless.
"Anyway, we don't care, Shen Wenxuan must give us an explanation!" said the leader, Boss Wang, with a sullen expression on his face, "Those nephews of our family have been studying in Hongzhang Academy for five or six years. After killing that Layman Weixiu, our children were kicked out, for so many years, is it easy for us to coax and enshrine those officials and lords?"
"It goes without saying how much energy our merchant family put in to send our children in. Let's just say how much money we invested in it, at least a few hundred thousand taels of white money. Is it possible that this money has been poured into the water like this?"
Yu Tang frowned and retorted: "How can you blame the Shen family? Back then, all your money went into the pockets of those officials, and none of the money went here. If you have the ability to ask those officials, what are you doing here? ?”
"You stand aside, Yu Ziqiu of your family has not been kicked out, so naturally standing and talking will not hurt your back." Boss Wang said.
Yu Tang: "Our young master is both good in character and learning, whoever lets your family members in is a bastard, and besides, the admissions test will be in a few days, so those nephews who were kicked out can just go for the test again? "
"Whether you take the test or not is our business, anyway, you have to pay for the money!"
Those who were kicked out would not be kicked out if they had the ability to pass the admission test, and they knew this, so they insisted on asking for money.
Wang Muze stood up straight with his hands behind his back, with a calm expression, and said, "Money? No, even if you stand here to die, you don't want the Shen family to pay you a penny."
Boss Wang: "You—"
The people behind approached his ears to discuss a few words. Boss Wang thought for a while, and he was not in a hurry anymore. He said with confidence:
"Since the Shen family is so unkind, then we people don't have to be polite to your Shen family. Not only will we not have any business dealings with your Shen family from now on, but we will also clean up the previous business. People! Go and get all the colored glaze, porcelain, antiques, wooden utensils, etc. from the Shen family, we want to return them!"
Yu Tang frowned, there is no such thing as returning the item that has been sold.
"Okay, no problem," Wang Muze said, with a lazy voice, as if he didn't care at all, "As long as everyone's things are intact and there are no bumps, our Shen family will definitely support returns. .”
After returning it and shipping it to the border and selling it to Jiangnan, the price that can be sold is even higher, who is afraid of whom?
Hearing this, the merchants looked at each other secretly, and couldn't help hesitating towards the Shen family's candid attitude. In the end, it was Boss Wang who made the final decision and said, "Retire!"
The steward moved the tables and chairs and put them in the yard. Wang Muze looked through the ledger while holding a magnifying glass to check whether the items were damaged: "Hey, have you used this tea set? You can't return the used tea set and tableware. "
"Why can't I withdraw? I'm fine."
"You don't mind drinking tea from someone else's cup with you? Joke, next one."
"That's fine. I'll refund you 8000 taels. Keep it. It won't be this price if you want it next time."
Boss Wang took out a pair of jade research, a brush washer, a glass table case, a large enamel bottle, and the glass bead hairpin bought by his wife, and looked at Wang Muze proudly.
All these were refunded, but it was more than the money they asked for. He didn't believe that the Shen family could stand up to him without heart.
Wang Muze smiled after checking the account book: "What? Boss Wang's pair of presbyopic glasses are not refundable? They are worth a lot of money."
Boss Wang was taken aback, blushed, and said angrily, "Why do you care so much? If you want to withdraw, you can withdraw."
"Okay, okay, let me show you first..."
On the other side, Shen Wenxuan took Jiao Shihan and left in a carriage through the back door, followed by many servants and guards.
Today is the [-]th day, just in time for the people of Heping Yuefu to burn incense and worship Buddha, Shen Wenxuan took out the amulet from his sleeve, thinking about what the crazy monk said that day, he became more and more concerned, this time he went to Chongfu Temple to find that monk by the way Ask again.
Jiao Shihan took the amulet out of his hand and tied it around his waist: "It's the right way to wear it."
Shen Wenxuan hugged him and touched the top of his head.
Zhao Erhe and Yanqi rode horses to protect the two sides, and the soldiers patrolling along the way had to give way to them, but a few of them secretly looked at each other when they saw the Shen family, and when they reached the intersection, they secretly turned and left. team.
Chongfu Temple was farther than the blacksmith shop we went to before. When we got there, two hours had passed. Shen Wenxuan pinched Jiao Shihan's waist and pressed it for him: "Are you tired? When I go up the stairs later, I will hold you up."
"No, you must be sincere in worshiping Buddha. How can you not climb the mountain ladder to enter the temple by yourself? And I am not tired, I have slept all the way."
Jiao Shihan pulled him down from the carriage. Hearing that he was going to worship the Buddha today, he specially changed into some lighter clothes, and pulled Shen Wenxuan to start climbing the stairs one by one.
The temple is on the top of the mountain, but the gate of the temple is at the foot of the mountain. There are three characters of "Chongfu Temple" written on the majestic archway. Many vendors sell food, drink, prayer beads, Buddha statues, etc. here. It is very lively. Many of them The peddler is still a monk, but I don't know whether it is a real monk or a fake monk.
The mountain ladder has 970 steps and there are quite a few people climbing it. Jiao Shihan couldn't move when he climbed one-tenth of the way. ...no, half tea time."
Shen Wenxuan smiled, pulled him over and picked him up by the waist, and continued to walk up.
Jiao Shihan: "No—"
"Why not? I'll hold you up to show that I have double sincerity. Tell me what you want to achieve. I'll help you tell the Buddha."
Jiao Shihan blushed and held back for a while, and when he climbed halfway up the mountain, he whispered: "Then tell him to bless you to live to be a hundred years old."
Shen Wenxuan paused for a few breaths before continuing to walk, and asked, "Why?"
With his physique, it might not be so easy to think of a short life.
"You should wish yourself to live to be a hundred years old, and then I will wish you to live to be a hundred years old."
Get a double buff.
Jiao Shihan retorted: "Because I will try my best to live to be a hundred years old only if you live to be a hundred years old. It is useless to only bless me."
Shen Wenxuan looked down at him, he was nestled in his arms like a cat, everything was soft, obedient and warm, Shen Wenxuan raised his hand and silently hugged him tighter, his heart was surprisingly soft : "You are the best at flirting with people at every turn."
"I do not have."
Killing is taboo in the temple. Except for the young servants, all the guards with sabers were stopped outside the temple gate. Yan Qi stayed at the foot of the mountain to guard, while Zhao Er took people to the exit of the back mountain. Imports and exports are not the same.
Chongfu Temple is solemn and dignified, but it has a long history and looks a bit old, but everything is cleaned very clean.
The monk who received him turned around and led the way after performing the Buddhist ceremony. Jiao Shihan bought a palm-sized tortoise from the monk guarding the pool, and released it in the pool. Wen Xuan felt cute and patted his head.
The main hall, the Mahavira Hall, enshrines the Buddhas of the third generation - Medicine Buddha, Sakyamuni, and Amitabha.
As soon as Shen Wenxuan entered the door, he saw Huizhen, the abbot who had come to pick him up, was sitting on the futon with his eyes closed, beeping, beeping, and chanting sutras on a wooden fish. Falling asleep on him, the saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth like silk and fell on Huizhen's clothes, and he couldn't bear to look directly at him.
Jiao Shihan waited for the people in front to walk a few steps before kneeling on the futon, and the young monk at the table brought an incense burner and three sticks of incense, lit them and handed them to Jiao Shihan. Jiao Shi inserted the first stick of incense in the middle, and said silently in her heart: Make offerings Buddha, awakened but not enlightened, the right side of the second branch-support the law, righteous but not evil, the left side of the third branch-make offerings to the monk, clean but not defiled, and then worship with palms together.
Standing next to him, Shen Wenxuan looked up at the three Buddha statues. He didn't kneel, but stood upright. He looked down at the altar and asked, "I heard that the more incense money you donate, the more merit you have? Is there such a thing?" reason?"
The sound of the abbot knocking on the wooden fish stopped, he opened his eyes and looked at him, saw that he was a young man whom he had met by chance before, and said with a smile: "It's all from the heart, I don't care about the money."
Shen Wenxuan bowed slightly and bowed to him. A group of servants waiting outside the door came in with a tray covered by a red cloth. When the red cloth was lifted, there were neatly arranged gold ingots on it. Shen Wenxuan took it like a splash of water. He poured it into the merit box like a clatter, and everyone around took a breath and stared at him in shock.
Jiao Shihan paused, and immediately worshiped more piously.
"Building a golden body for the Buddha should prove my sincerity." Shen Wenxuan said, stood upright with palms together, and bowed.
The merits and virtues are all added to Ajiao, don't give them to him, and bless Ajiao with health, longevity and peace every year.
Huizhen stared at the overcrowded merit box with wide eyes, her eyes lighted up quietly, she got up and took the bamboo tube on the altar table and said with a smile: "Ask for lottery and divination, benefactor, take one."
Shen Wenxuan pulled Ajiao to get up, flicked his lower garment, looked at the sticks in the bamboo tube and picked one, and signed the text: Sending sutras and offering oil to worship the Buddha, eliminating disasters and changing bad luck.
Huizhen glanced at it and said with a smile: "Shangping is a sign of turning bad luck into good fortune, so it's easy to sign."
Turn evil into good fortune?Shen Wenxuan changed his mind, silently squeezed A Jiao's hand, and said with a smile, "Thank you abbot."
"You're lying, there is only one Shangping in the bamboo tube, and the others are all signed and signed, and it is the worst." Hui Ji said with her eyes closed, turned over on the futon, and lay flat.
Huizhen was embarrassed for a while: "This...this asking for a lottery is just asking for auspiciousness, it is not a lie."
The smile on the corner of Shen Wenxuan's mouth disappeared in an instant, and he threw the stick back into the bamboo tube, took out the handkerchief and wiped his stinky hands, looked at Huiji and asked, "Those words you said that day—"
"Ah?" Hui Ji opened a crack and looked over, his mind was empty, "Who are you?"
Shen Wenxuan paused, the monk was really talking crazy, he rolled his eyes and ignored it, and asked: "Does the temple light lamps for Buddha? My husband is not in good health, and I want to light a lamp for him to live longer." .”
"Yes, yes, yes," Huizhen stepped aside, and said, "Sponsor, please move."
Hui Ji lay there silent for a while, with a serious and serious expression, and got up to follow after their backs disappeared around the corner.
In the back hall of the temple, there are twenty Buddhas, eighteen Arhats, and eighteen Avalokitesvara carved on the wall. The room is dark and cannot be ventilated. There are hundreds if not thousands of ever-burning lamps, which are the only light here. Huizhen engraved Jiao Shihan's birth date on the lamps. , The wish he prayed for was handed over to Jiao Shihan and he went out.
There were only the two of them left in the room. After Jiao Shihan carefully lit the ever-burning lamp, she held it upright in front of the Buddha with both hands.
The base of the ever-burning lamp was in the shape of a lotus flower, made of copper, and was somewhat blackened by the wick. Jiao Shihan lowered his head and touched the corner lightly, looking a little silent under the warm yellow candlelight.
Shen Wenxuan grabbed his hand tightly and squeezed it, and said with relief: "Doctor Zhao is studying the medical book left by his master, and there is a case on it that is very similar to yours. After a while, Jiao Jiao will be a healthy child." .”
Jiao Shihan pursed her lips and smiled, but her heart was still uneasy. After a long silence, she asked softly: "If, I mean, if, if I haven't recovered, what should I do? If I... have something to do first— "
"I'll be with you." Shen Wenxuan said, his expression was so indifferent that he didn't seem to say it casually.
Jiao Shihan stared at him blankly for a long time, his heart was churning strangely, and he stumbled and said: "I, what I said just now is if, I will definitely live for a long time."
Shen Wenxuan smiled, warm light shone into his eyes, very gentle: "Go out, you can't stay here for long."
Jiao Shihan nodded, leaned on his shoulder like a large pendant and walked out, her ears and cheeks slowly turned red.
......
Yan Qi squatted in the open space outside the temple gate, playing chess with his brothers in a circle, or holding a branch to draw a chessboard and chess pieces on the ground:
"Ham, if I knew it was waiting at the bottom of the mountain, I would bring some cards or something. It would be great to play leaf games. This chess is boring."
Yan Qi complained, raised his head and looked at the surrounding vendors, their mouths were all taken away, the steamed buns sold here didn't want to eat, so he ordered his brother to buy a fruit plate, and served them with them while eating.
"Boss is so good. He is so good at playing Go now, but he didn't even know how to play Go before."
Yan Qi waved his hand: "Damn, aren't you used to watching Dad and Lao Wentou play chess all day long, and you'll get used to it."
As he spoke, he looked up, and saw that a group of punks had just entered at the foot of the mountain, bare-chested, bare-faced, and he paused for a moment before going over to have a look, only to hear:
"My car will eat you!"
Yan Qi came back to his senses suddenly: "Wait a minute! Why did you eat my general? You are wrong! Take it back, take it back..."
The few people who were drinking tea in the shed took a few glances at them, and covered themselves tightly in coir raincoats. While they were having fun, the leader got up and left the tea shed, showed the token to the monk at the gate, and led the people. He walked up the mountain ladder quickly, and the man with the corner of his clothes exposed was a soldier from the Jia Bing Battalion.
......
At noon, Jiao Shihan and Shen Wenxuan had a fast meal in the temple. After resting in the hut for a while, it was the end of the time. Shen Wenxuan took Jiao Shihan and Huizhen to say goodbye, and went down the mountain along the bamboo forest path in the back mountain.
"Isn't it okay to fast in the temple for a few days?" Jiao Shihan asked, puffing up his face and not wanting to go down the mountain so early.
"No, it's not safe to live here in the wilderness." Shen Wenxuan squeezed his puffed cheeks and coaxed, "If you like to worship Buddha, you can also build a temple at home."
Jiao Shihan nodded, going down the mountain was easier than going up, and it was a winding path, Shen Wenxuan supported his waist and walked down slowly.
After confirming that they could no longer see this place, the four soldiers stopped at the entrance of the mountain: "This road can't go on, the suspension bridge below is broken, change to another road, don't look here, get out!"
......
It was almost halfway down the mountain before Shen Wenxuan realized that something was wrong. He had been paying attention to Jiao Shihan before, and then he felt that it was too quiet behind him. Apart from the servants he brought, there were no other pilgrims around.
Shen Wenxuan looked at the bluestone steps under his feet: "Are you sure this is the way?"
Defu glanced around, scratched his hair, and said, "This is the way, young master, is there any problem?"
"...No," Shen Wenxuan felt uneasy, leaned over to pick up Jiao Shihan and walked down the mountain quickly.
"Defu, run to the front and ask Zhao Er to come up to pick him up."
"Eh."
In the depths of the bamboo grove, the bandit leader flicked the kitchen knife in his hand a few times, decisively killing the bound monk's life, blood spattered, the bandit leader wiped the blood from his face, glanced at the blood on the tip of the knife, and enjoyed took a sip.
Except for the monk who had just been killed, there were five or six corpses of monks piled up next to them.
A few brothers behind were chopping bamboo and sharpening it. They came in a hurry, and they didn't bury their knives in advance. This ruined temple didn't allow them to bring knives up, so they had to steal a few kitchen knives, axes, and sickles from the kitchen.
"Boss," a subordinate ran over from the front and whispered in his ear, "a man dressed as a servant left first."
The bandit leader didn't care, and continued to sharpen his knife on the stone: "Don't scare the snake right now, he will run to the foot of the mountain for a while, we have time."
"Eh."
When he saw Shen Wenxuan coming down, the bandit leader took out the portrait and compared it carefully: "Brothers, you can see clearly, this is the only person, after finishing this ticket, we will take the money to eat and drink spicy food, You don't have to worry about half your life."
The people who followed looked at each other, smiled in unison, raised their feet and followed silently.
When crossing the suspension bridge, Shen Wenxuan stopped, frowned and looked at the length of the suspension bridge and the continuous flow of Yuejiang River below. Shen Wenxuan touched the wooden piles of the suspension bridge carefully, and there was no trace of movement. There is no one in the end, there must be a problem, but I don't know where the problem lies.
After ordering the two servants to go over first to make sure that there was no problem with the suspension bridge, Shen Wenxuan dragged Jiao Shihan to step on it. Jiao Shihan held Ah Xuan's hand tightly, and couldn't help feeling nervous when he saw his expression.
Just when a group of people walked to the middle, a sudden change occurred.
Like wild dogs descending the mountain from the front port, many people rushed out of the woods. They cut two young servants each with a knife and kicked them down the cliff, but they were not in the Yuejiang River.
Immediately after that, a group suddenly rose up, and the bandit leader rushed out fiercely to hack people, screaming again and again.
The boy who hadn't had time to get on the suspension bridge was the first to be killed. The gangsters blocked the front and back, and approached like a cannibal with the guy in his hand. The crowd wanted to escape. Steady, was thrown down.
"Plop" several water sounds.
"Ah, ah, ah, help."
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
Shen Wenxuan grabbed the waist-high protective net with one hand, and hugged Jiao Shihan tightly with the other. There was a human wall behind him, but the people in front had already forced him over.
Taking a deep breath, Shen Wenxuan took off his belt and tied Jiao Shihan's hand to the protective rope: "Squat here, hold on to the rope net tightly, and don't move around."
"Ah Xuan!"
Jiao Shihan's hairs stood on end, staring at him closely and rushed up.
Shen Wenxuan threw off his coat to block the sight of the people coming in front, and while they couldn't see clearly the belly of the person who was kicked in front, he grabbed the ax from his hand, and chopped it down without saying a word.
Isn't it just killing people?Like no one has ever played.
"Take the knife from their hands! Slash back! Whoever cuts the most people, I will give him ten thousand taels of gold!"
The bandit leader licked the blood from the knife, his eyes were as red as an evil ghost, he stared at Shen Wenxuan's figure and pushed away the people who blocked his way, and walked behind him on the suspension bridge as if walking on level ground, and raised his knife to chop——
"Ah Xuan!!!"
Shen Wenxuan turned his head sideways to dodge the point of the knife, and the ax in his hand hit the back of his head following inertia. With a sound of "boom", the bandit leader was taken aback, staggered two steps forward, and touched it. There was blood in one hand at the back of the head, his face contorted immediately, he raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, slashing wildly like a violent bison.
Because Shen Wenxuan was on his side and his feet were unstable, he clung to the net and fell on the bridge deck. Before he could catch his breath, he hurriedly dodged the knife cut by the bandit leader. The bridge decks were either cracked or shattered, attached several times.
In the next breath, the bridge deck under their feet collapsed, and the other people on one side were also dragged into the water and fell into the Yuejiang River.
Shen Wenxuan narrowly grasped the bridge on the other side with one hand, the veins on his hand were bulging, his feet were hanging in the air, and he was holding an ax in the other hand. He caught a glimpse of the bandit leader who was a few steps away grabbing the guard net and trying to climb up. Gritting his teeth, he swung the ax in his hand and smashed it violently.
fuck you!
Out of the corner of his eye, the bandit leader shuddered, and he let go of the net and fell into the river without being hit.
Shen Wenxuan grasped the bridge with both hands, while Jiao Shihan pulled off the belt with trembling hands, crawled over to grab his hands and tried to pull him up with all his strength, panting for breath.
By the time Shen Wenxuan supported his upper body across the bridge, the servants on the suspension bridge were already dead. Seeing the broken bridge, the gangsters on the other side did not dare to cross again. The water hyacinth sprinkled the wine or oil inside on the bridge, and found out the fire bag, and it seemed that it was about to be lighted.
Hey!
Shen Wenxuan frowned, and before the flames rushed over, he hugged Jiao Shihan's waist with one hand and dragged him down. At the same time, he let go of the other hand to protect Ajiao's head and fell on his back.
The suspension bridge was engulfed in flames, and the fragments of planks fell down with sparks. Shen Wenxuan watched helplessly as one of them whirled towards him, getting bigger and bigger in his field of vision. In the next second, his eyes went black and he lost consciousness.
......
At Xiangguo Temple, there was a "click", which was very clear in the silent meditation room. Huisheng paused his movements, and slowly opened his eyes. The expression on his face was neither sad nor happy. Wooden fish... cracked.
