The visible atmosphere in the capital became extremely tense. Martial law came first, and soldiers came to handle some crowded places. Everyone had to show their ID before they could leave.
Furthermore, the gates of the city were directly closed, and everyone waiting was not allowed to leave the city.
This is the capital city, the most lively and open.Every day, countless goods flow in, and countless gold and silver flow out. Once the city gate is closed, it will be a problem for the common people to eat in the morning tomorrow, not to mention that some restaurants are filled with fresh vegetables from outside the city on the same day. Especially in those high-end restaurants, the customers are very tricky. As soon as you stretch out your chopsticks, you will know whether your dishes are fresh or not.You have to use stale ones to deal with them, this is to smash the brand.
Many merchants who opened their doors to do business are in a hurry, and some have a wide network, so they try to find a relationship and ask what is going on?Most importantly, how many days will the city gate be closed?Okay, why is the city gate suddenly closed?
Everyone is in a state of panic. People who can settle down in the capital are richer than those in the poor countryside. After all, they are at the feet of the prince, and the family has some surplus food. If they don’t go to the vegetable market for a day, they won’t starve to death. If you can't turn around at home, you can also find relatives and friends to help you tide over the difficulties.
And relatives and friends always have good conditions.
Not to mention other things, even if they are buying sesame seed cakes on the side of the road in the capital, not to mention the various relationships involved, just digging through the genealogy, maybe they can find a second-rank official.
But now that it's done like this, everyone doesn't have the heart to cook, and the people come out of their homes and gather in teahouses, wanting to hear some reliable news.
But the news was mixed. Some said that a bandit had sneaked into the capital and killed [-] people in a row outside. It was extremely cruel and heinous, so it took so much trouble.
Some also said that they wanted to catch the traitor who was on the run, take out the corpses of so-and-so and so-and-so who ransacked their homes a few years ago, and said that their offspring were left behind, and now they are going to the capital to take revenge.
All kinds of rumors are flying around, and the excitement is full of twists and turns.
It just has nothing to do with the facts.
Gui Bobo took Lou Yue to sit at the door of the teahouse, listening to the storyteller in front of him frothing and talking, he couldn't help but shook his head.
He said to Lou Yue: "At first, I was worried that the empress dowager would make the common people impetuous and anxious if she made such a big show. Looking at it today, everyone is still quite happy."
Although Gui Bobo told the queen mother that he would deal with this matter, the queen mother was still worried and asked people to close the city gates, and sent people to search for suspicious persons.
Lou Yue said: "After all, a country cannot live without a king."
Gui Bobo let out a sneer, and he turned his head: "Whoever said that a country cannot live without a king, I just want this country without a king."
Lou Yue understood: "You don't even want to get Helian Fang back?"
"I still have to look for it. After all, it's always a hidden danger to keep his identity outside—but I didn't say that after I found it, I would definitely bring him back."
Lou Yue: "Then where are you going to find it?"
The capital city is not big, but it is not small. If you want to find someone in this sea of people, it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
Gui Bobo: "I don't think I need to look for it this time. Someone will naturally come to look for me."
He got up, took Lou Yue away, put a piece of silver ingot on the table, and the cleaning guy came to wipe the table, seeing this silver ingot, he couldn't help showing a little puzzled expression on his face - when did anyone appear here?
Lou Yue understood: "You mean, those who helped Helian Fang and took him away from the palace will betray him? How can you be sure?"
Gui Bobo took Lou Yue to the bustling street. With his appearance and demeanor, he should be the most eye-catching existence on this road, but the people on both sides of the road seemed to have never seen him Ordinarily, but one after another, they turned around just in time, or just got out of the way when he came over.
When Gui Bobo heard Lou Yue's words, he said to him: "Why did you forget, I am a Taoist priest, can't a Taoist priest just pinch and count?"
He raised his head and looked towards the sky, as if he had sensed something: "For example, I think I will encounter a surprise when I go out today."
Lou Yue and Gui Bobo have already walked around this street twice, they went to the teahouse to listen to some rumors, sat down and drank a cup of tea, the taste of the tea was really bad.
Then Gui Bobo took him to the restaurant that was going to be closed, and introduced to him why the restaurant closed, and what was the most famous dish when it was not closed.
"But it is going to close today. If the gate of the capital city is closed for a day, the owner of this restaurant can only be forced to sell the restaurant." He sighed: "The superior is just a word, and the family has been around for a hundred years. The historical restaurant is likely to close down, do you think that the people living in this street seem to be very strong, but sometimes they are very fragile.”
"Whether it's a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, why do you always have to suffer so much when you live alone in this world?"
Lou Yue felt that the question was very deep, and he couldn't help lowering his head to think for a moment, and finally shook his head: "I don't know."
"Do you also think this should be the case? I know some ideas that are popular now, including some people called great Confucians. The books written by them, and the ideas conveyed in the books, are to persuade people to be able to endure hardships, Don't hold resentment and injustice for the tribulations in life, be patient, be optimistic, and accept it with peace of mind."
After Gui Bobo finished speaking, he took Lou Yue out of the restaurant: "I think this idea is really too much. Some people don't feel pain in their backs when they stand and talk, and they are not the ones who suffer emotionally, so they can persuade those who are suffering. To accept it calmly, but what happened to these other people one day happened to them?"
"Can these talkers really accept it calmly? Anyway, I can't do it." Gui Bobo said to Lou Yue: "Confucius said that you should not do to others what you don't want to do to others. I think some hardships can be avoided. For example, this man-made disaster can be completely avoided, right?"
"Even if it is an unavoidable natural disaster, it can minimize the losses suffered by the natural disaster, so all of this can be changed. Since these can be solved, why don't these people think about how to break the pressure on them?" Dashan, to change everything that could have been changed, but to persuade those who are about to be overwhelmed by Dashan...
Tell them, you have to work hard and accept it all. "
Lou Yue looked at Gui Bobo.
Gui Bobo continued: "I really hate these theories, let me tell you the truth, those bald monks with bare heads who told me that the Dharma is boundless, and those bullshit Buddhas who let go of their obsessions and have no desires and desires Language is what I hate the most."
"The gods in this world are obviously dead, and yet some kind of Buddha appears again. It's really ridiculous."
There was a mocking smile on his face. As he spoke, they finally arrived at the end of this journey. It was the most famous Buddhist temple in the capital—Jin'an Temple.
Lou Yue couldn't help laughing: "It's a coincidence, I also hate these monks, they use incomprehensible words all day to persuade this and that, but in fact, they really did something that is commendable thing?"
Because of the martial law in the capital, Jin'an Temple, which has always been the busiest, is somewhat deserted.
There is only a young monk cleaning the fallen leaves at the door.
"Not long after I won the title of national teacher, the monk from Jin'an Temple came to me personally and told me a lot of Buddhist principles, telling me that everything in the world has its own destiny, and asked me to turn around as soon as possible, to be an outsider, and not to be involved in this world of mortals " Gui Bobo took Lou Yue and walked in from the side of the little monk, but the little monk didn't notice any movement, he focused on cleaning every step.
"I told him that there is only one kind of outsider in this world, and that is the dead." Gui Bobo led Lou Yue up to the Buddhist hall, where the solemn Buddha statue of Jin Yijia folded his hands and looked down at all living beings.
"Isn't that right, Abbot?"
Gui Bobo said to the white-haired old man kneeling on the futon under the Buddha statue.
"Amitabha, the benefactor has come after all." The abbot sighed and stood up from the futon: "I made the benefactor laugh. In the past, the old monk would persuade you not to interfere with ordinary things, so as not to cause evil retribution, but now the old monk himself is ruined." If I quit, I will have no face to say these things to the benefactor again."
"I don't understand your precepts or precepts, I just ask you, what about people?" Gui Bobo said directly.
The abbot lowered his eyes and said: "Don't be in a hurry, benefactor, you might as well meet someone with me before this."
Gui Bobo laughed: "You monk is really interesting. I came to see you in person, and you still want to find a reason to delay me? Do you want me to see whoever you want me to see?"
The abbot clasped his hands together, showing a wry smile: "Don't be surprised, it's just that this person begged the old monk at the beginning. Because the old monk had some disagreements with the benefactor in terms of politics, and felt that this person was sincere, he couldn't help being soft-hearted..." He sighed softly He breathed a sigh of relief: "Thinking about it now, what the benefactor said was true at the beginning, there have never been any outsiders in this world..."
Gui Bobo: "Do you think I really don't know what you are thinking? You are afraid that I will promote Taoism and destroy Buddhism, so you don't want to see me holding power all the time, and you put your expectations on the emperor in the palace, monk, you You are not an outsider from the beginning to the end, so don't use this as an excuse to prevaricate me, shut your mouth full of lies!
For the sake of accepting many homeless people over the years, I forgive your selfishness for the time being, but don't come to test how much patience I have for you! "
The abbot closed his eyes, shook his hands and said again: "Amitabha."
He clasped his hands under the Buddha statue and spoke the name of the Buddha, solemnly and solemnly.
But Gui Bobo is not only not afraid, but even took a step forward——
"I, Gui Bobo, killed gods and immortals. I haven't seen any big scenes. Don't talk about destroying the fake Buddha in your mouth, so what if the real Buddha is here. Monk, a business like yours that specializes in suffering and trading, here I am. The less the better!"
The abbot sighed: "Almighty, if there are no believers in this world who suffer and suffer, and have no choice but to ask God, then even if no one cares about this Buddhist temple, the poor monk will be willing..."
Hearing this, Gui Bobo withdrew his aggressive attitude, and he looked at the abbot fixedly: "Abbot, remember what you said, where is the person you told me to meet?"
"Master of the State." A middle-aged man with a tired face came out from behind the Buddha statue: "I'm sorry, I have been reflecting in the room inside before, and I couldn't come out to pay my respects at the first time. Please don't get angry, Lord of the State."
Gui Bobo looked at him: "Report your name."
"I'm Xian Antai, that is, the sinner who sent the emperor out of the palace."
Gui Bobo secretly cast a smug look at Lou Yue—what did I say?If you still don't believe it, isn't this a surprise?
Furthermore, the gates of the city were directly closed, and everyone waiting was not allowed to leave the city.
This is the capital city, the most lively and open.Every day, countless goods flow in, and countless gold and silver flow out.
