A knife in love

Chapter 147

"Amitabha..." When the big lama saw the courtyard full of people, his face turned pale immediately, and he repeated the Buddha's name repeatedly.

Qunhao ignored him, looking for a place to rest on his own.Liu Yong walked up to the big lama and said, "Master, if you forgive me, I will disturb the rest of the masters."

The great lama saw that most of the heroes were armed with weapons, and many of them had rough faces, as if they were menacing gods.Can't help trembling with fear, how dare to shut everyone out?He had no choice but to salute Liu Yong again and again, without daring to say a word.

At this time, someone in the crowd shouted: "I haven't eaten all day and night, my stomach is so hungry!"

When he said this, the group of heroes suddenly clamored.Someone shouted to the big lama: "Teacher, is there anything to eat in the temple?"

The great lama was already terribly frightened, but when he saw the six or seven hundred people wanting to eat and drink, his face turned pale and his body trembled slightly.Seeing that Liu Yong was still kind, he said with a terrified expression, "The small temple has few people, and there is not much food prepared. I'm afraid it won't be enough for the heroes..."

But Liu Yong also knew the difficulty of this great lama.There are six to seven hundred people in Qunhao, which is a big family. Where can they find food that can feed so many people?Immediately said to the great lama: "Master, you can relax, we are just passing by to rest, not strongmen who rob houses. I will restrain these friends and will not do rude things."

After Liu Yong finished speaking, he turned around and said to the group of heroes in the courtyard: "My friends, six or seven hundred of us came to rest in this temple. It is a great kindness for this great lama to give us a place to live. If we come again I am afraid that the Buddha will blame us for any rude request. What's more, there are so many of us, and the temple is not prepared. Where can we find food in a short time? Everyone only needs to endure another half night. We will leave early tomorrow morning. Lotus Mountain naturally has food and water.”

After Liu Yong finished speaking, the clamor of the heroes gradually subsided.It's just that someone muttered to himself: "We don't want wine or food, even if there is a steamed bun to eat."

Murong Danyan whispered to Li Qiufeng: "The great lama is lying. There is a lot of food in this temple. It is not difficult to make thousands or eight hundred steamed buns."

Li Qiufeng wondered: "How does Miss Murong know?"

Murong Danyan pursed his lips and smiled, and said in Li Qiufeng's ear: "Shortly after you left, the great lama used the money Yu Changyuan gave to buy several carts of rice noodles and brought them back, all of which were hidden in the cellar in the backyard. I heard a few The lama said that there were rumors that there was going to be a war everywhere outside the mountain, so the big lama stockpiled a lot of food while the food price did not rise. In those two days, food delivery vehicles entered the lama temple every day."

Li Qiufeng smiled slightly, and said: "The Great Lama really deserves to be the master of a temple, he has far-reaching thoughts, admire, admire."

Murong Danyan said: "The great lama loves the silver, so he dare not say that there is food in the temple. If someone can come up with a few hundred taels of silver now, and ask the big lama to send some food, he will agree immediately."

Li Qiufeng knew that this great lama was used to living in poverty and was very good at calculating, so he went to Liu Yong's side and told Liu Yong about the matter.Liu Yong laughed and said, "This is easy." He walked up to the stone steps in front of the main hall and said loudly: "My friends, it is very disrespectful for us to trespass on the temple and disturb the practice of the masters in the temple. Since we When you come to the Buddha, you need some incense money. My Huashan sect is very poor. Even if you turn over the pockets of the twenty or so of us, you can’t make up ten taels of silver. Please donate money to those rich and powerful friends. A few taels of silver, count it as our offering to the temple."

Most of the people in Wulin are not short of money, and some of them even have property with huge wealth.Since Liu Yong opened his mouth, even if someone said: "Since Mr. Liu has opened his mouth, we can't be cheeky and say nothing, can't we? I will pay five taels, which will be counted as incense money!"

Another person said: "Since you, Boss Kan, have contributed the silver, our Fu family can't lag behind. Our Fu family has contributed ten taels of silver, please accept it with a smile."

Now that someone took the lead, there were people who wanted to donate five taels or ten taels of silver.Li Qiufeng peeked at the big lama, and saw that the big lama still had a look of fear at first, then slowly turned into surprise, and finally had a joyful expression, and silently recited the Buddha's name.

At this moment, a middle-aged fat man in a brocade robe stood up and said to everyone: "You guys are so brave to take out these fifty taels! Quickly put it in your pocket and take it back to give your sister a dowry." Stop." After finishing speaking, he turned to Liu Yong and said, "Mr. Liu, today's incense money is all on my Chang Ke's head. I donate 1000 taels of silver, do you know if it is enough?"

As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent.Chang Ke is quite well-known in the world, known as "Golden Abacus".The Chang family is a rich family in Shanxi. They started their business by relying on pawnshops. There are pawnshops and money houses in various places north of the Yellow River. They are well-known wealthy households.Although most of the heroes are not poor, it is not easy to take out 1000 taels of silver at once.

Some people were not convinced, and shouted to Chang Ke: "Boss Chang, don't lie in front of the Buddha. Where can you take 1000 taels of silver with you? Don't say that you will send someone to send the silver in the future. It is no different from cheating." .”

Chang Ke took a "bah", reached out and took out a bank note from his bosom, held it in his hand, and said loudly to everyone: "Everyone, open up your tricks and take a good look. This is our 'Qi Baozhai' bank note, which is often used everywhere. My bank and pawn shop can cash it. After leaving Lianhua Mountain, there are our money houses and pawn shops in Changping and Tongzhou, and the masters in the temple can cash it."

After he finished speaking, he came forward with the bank note and handed it to the big lama respectfully.When the big lama took the bank note, his hands were trembling, and he kept pronouncing the name of the Buddha, praising the almsgiver for respecting the Buddha, he will win the favor of all the Buddhas of the third generation, and he will get Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi. Qi, descendants, all become high officials...

Chang Ke said with a smile: "Our Chang family doesn't dare to think about any high officials and generals. As long as the Buddha can keep the whole family safe and sound, and have no worries about food and clothing, we will be satisfied."

The Great Lama Heshi said: "That's natural." Then he said to Liu Yong: "Please wait a moment, heroes, the old monk will let people prepare a fast meal to satisfy everyone's hunger!"

After the big lama left in a hurry, after only half a stick of incense, a lama brought up steamed buns and rice.At the beginning, only a few plates were delivered, and then the whole table was brought over.Although it is only radish and pickles, it is also very delicious.Qunhao had been hungry for a day and a night in the imperial mausoleum, and his intestines were already rumbling. When he saw steamed buns and rice, he immediately started to eat.

When Li Qiufeng, Liu Yong and the others saw that the heroes were all eating, they each took a steamed bun.While eating steamed buns, Liu Yong arranged for the disciples of the Huashan School to stay on duty at night.Murong Danyan smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, you are thoughtful, and you are an excellent candidate for the leader of the martial arts."

Liu Yong said with a smile: "What kind of martial arts leader, I don't want to end up like Tang He." After he finished speaking, he looked up at the sky full of stars, and said leisurely: "For more than a hundred years, the seniors who have been the leader of the martial arts, None of them ended well. Those who sit on the position of leader are either hypocritical villains or martial arts madmen who want to dominate the world. Among the few people who have been admired by people in the world in recent years, Murong, the owner of Murong Villa, is the first Qiu Shui. It’s just that in the past ten years, the owner of Murong Village has rarely appeared in the Jianghu. Because there is no leader among the dragons, some people with evil intentions will use some schemes and schemes to steal the sky and replace the sun. Right now, the Ming Dynasty is in danger. Southeast pirates The chaos is getting worse and worse. I heard that a few months ago, a Fusang warrior killed court officials in Ningbo, all the way to the north, and beheaded more than [-] martial arts masters in the Central Plains. Posting a post, we want to work together to capture and kill this person, but in the end, he escaped into the sea. If the people in my martial arts can work together as one, and can't afford internal strife, how can the Japanese be so rampant?"

When Murong Danyan heard that Liu Yong highly admired Murong Qiushui, he was extremely happy.Said to Liu Yong: "Mr. Liu, your Huashan faction is also very remarkable. After this battle, the Huashan faction will definitely become famous all over the world and shock the martial arts world."

Liu Yong smiled slightly and said: "What is famous all over the world and powerful in the martial arts? Above the rivers and lakes, you still have to convince people with virtue. As for the powerful in the martial arts and the like, the less the better, otherwise you will be the same as Tang He." , and ended up in a mess."

At this time, Qunhao had had enough to eat, and everyone had been frightened and exhausted after tossing and frightening for a day and a night. After eating, the courtyard was full of snoring in a short while.More than half of the six 700 people snore, and the sound can be imagined.There were even people talking in their dreams, crying or laughing, and for a while, the lama temple was quite lively.
