surnamed Wang

Chapter 241
On the tenth day of October, with light rain, Yunyin Temple closed its doors to thank visitors for a day, and all monks and monks in the temple gathered in the Daxiong Hall early in the morning.

After the bell rang one hundred and eight times, the old abbot, known as Jie Chi, performed the operation himself, and wanted to add two more bald heads to the temple.

The old host is over ninety years old, but he is still able to see and hear. Although it is a bit difficult to stand up, his hands are extremely stable without any trembling.

Pu Wen quickly finished his shaving, looked in the mirror, and kept stroking his bald head.

When it was the moon cake's turn, the old host just shaved off a strand of hair symbolically, and then stopped.

"This... is it over?" Pu asked with surprise on his face.

The old host nodded, "It's fine if you want it."

"Then what do I do?" Pu Wen pointed to the top of his head.

"It's your bad luck, hahaha..."

Even though the atmosphere was solemn, Wang Gangquan still laughed out loud.

"Why don't you come with me, brother?"

Pu Wen felt unwilling and insisted on dragging a person into the water.

It's just that as soon as he said this, he found that the other party looked at him like a fool.

"I have such a beautiful wife, why do I want to become a monk with you, a bachelor?"

"..." Pu Wen wanted to cry but had no tears.

At this time, the ceremony of becoming a monk was not yet completed. The old abbot took out a string of black and shiny Buddhist beads and put them on the little girl's neck with his own hands.

"At this time, the old monk's master is left behind by the previous living Buddha." The old abbot said slowly.

When the little girl heard the words, her face was solemn, and she gently placed her right hand on the Buddhist beads.

At this moment, the statue of Venerable Dragon Subduing in Arhat Hall suddenly burst out with unprecedented light, and the golden light almost covered the entire temple.

Immediately afterwards, a curling Sanskrit sound sounded from the sky, and the dark clouds receded instantly, revealing a radiant glow.

Everyone stared at the sky in a daze, but saw a strangely shaped bird wearing a glow, coming from the west, circling the sky, crying like a crane or an eagle.

The vulture came to the west, just in response to the prophecy on the plaque of the Arhat Hall.

The big and small monks in the temple clasped their hands together and knelt down on the ground. The old abbot's eyes showed great excitement.

On this day, another living Buddha will be filled in the Central Plains.

……

Three hundred miles to the northwest of Yunyin Temple, a young monk dressed in brocade cassock was walking westward with his head bowed. At this moment, attracted by the crowing of vultures, he raised his head and quietly looked at the vision.

……

The news that there was another Living Buddha in Yunyin Temple quickly spread, and Yunyin Temple, which was already very popular with incense, became even more lively now, reaching the point where there were almost crowds of people.

Wang Gangquan squeezed for a long time, and finally managed to squeeze into the Daxiong Palace. Fortunately, all the people who came here to pay homage were devout believers, and there was no such situation as before where people pinched their buttocks and took advantage of them.

The monk guarding the backyard recognized the young man at a glance and let him go without asking.

Xu Shi had received a lot of influence along the way, and it was rare for Wang Bingquan to offer a Buddhist salute to the other party, and the other party returned the salute upon seeing this.

After several days of chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha, Moon Cake's condition has improved a lot. Not only did she no longer appear in a coma, but even the lotus flower on her arm showed signs of returning to bright red.

Wang Gangquan was not a Buddhist believer at first, and he was even skeptical about the reincarnation of the Buddha, but he changed his mind after seeing the sky filled with sunshine a few days ago.

There are so many wonders in the world, maybe there really is a Leiyin Temple in the Western Heaven.

……

Familiar with the way, came to a meditation room, Wang Gingquan knocked lightly on the door, a young monk opened the door of the meditation room, showing doubts.

Wang Gingquan first glanced at the meditation room, and then asked, "Is the Mooncake Living Buddha here?"

The young monk showed helplessness, "Brother, if you want to come in, just come in openly, you don't have to be like a thief."

It was Pu Wen who opened the door.

"Then why, Mooncake Living Buddha has a noble status, how can I, an ordinary person, treat her like an ordinary little girl like I did back then.

Now thinking about my own words and deeds before, I am really terrified, afraid that one day a thunderbolt will strike me, a blind guy who has no eyes, and kill me on the spot. "

Wang Gangquan's face was serious and sincere.

"Hmph, are you hurting me on purpose?"

At some point, the little girl appeared behind Pu Wen, frowning and looking at Wang Gingquan outside the door.

"Ah, Mooncake Living Buddha."

Wang Gangquan pretended to be surprised, with an extremely exaggerated expression.

"I told you that I have a dharma number... Forget it, if you fart, let it go."

The little girl was obviously impatient.

Hearing the words, Wang Gangquan scratched his head, and said solemnly:
"Eh... You also know that it has been more than half a month since I left the capital this time, and the capital has always been a little bit uneasy.

Besides, I also want to stop by Fifth Brother's place, and there should be some time delay on the way.

So today I come to say goodbye to you. "

Speaking of this, Wang Gingquan couldn't help but feel reluctance in his heart. Everyone walked along the way, fighting and fighting. Although they often bickered, they also shared weal and woe. It would be a bit of self-deception to say that they have no feelings.

The same is obviously true of the two people on the opposite side. After hearing the news that the other party is leaving, their eyes can't help but dim a little. It's just that there is always a banquet in the world. After a long time, Pu Wen finally spoke:
"Brother, take care all the way, I won't send it off."

After a moment of hesitation, the little girl also spoke:

"This way, thank you."

"Well, one day when you cultivate a golden lotus, remember to come to the capital to play." Wang Bingquan had a smile on his face.

He knew that talking too much would only make him more reluctant, so he turned around and left after finishing speaking.

When his figure was about to disappear from the sight of the two, Pu Wen spoke softly:
"Do you think that brother is quite handsome?"

The little girl nodded slightly, "Maybe this is a chivalrous man."

By coincidence, Wang Gingquan, who had already walked away, happened to trip over a raised floor tile, and fell to his knees staggeringly.

He subconsciously looked around and found no one was paying attention, then quickly got up, brushed off the dust on his body, and continued to act chicly.

……

Outside Qiluo Town, Wang Quanquan, Yan Rongrong, waved goodbye to a carriage alone.

Sitting in the car were Jiang Xiuye's grandfather and grandson, and Ah Cha was in charge of driving.

Since Wang Bingquan wanted to go to Qu Xianwei to visit Wang Bingru who was stationed there, he asked Ah Cha to send the two scholars back to the capital first.

The frontier fortress is full of crises, and if it is not done well, some stragglers will emerge. The old Confucian Jiang and his grandfather and grandson are scholars with no power to restrain them. If they are not careful, they will become a drag. death, so it is safer to go back to the capital first.

After seeing off the three of them, the husband and wife got on their horses.

Wang Gangquan turned his head to look at Qiluo, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, the town in front of him was covered with a layer of gold.

"Hey... I really don't know when the next meeting will be." Wang Gangquan sighed.

"It should be soon." Yan Rongrong echoed.

"But it's good, without these light bulbs, my husband and I can finally take a serious trip."

After Wang Gingquan finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the woman beside him. The boredom in his chest was swept away, and then he lightly clamped the horse's belly and walked north.

Yan Rongrong raised the corner of his mouth, followed closely, and asked softly:

"Sir, there is one thing I have been puzzled about."

"Say."

"What is a light bulb?"

"Uh... that is something that can illuminate at night, you can understand it as a lantern."

"Oh, that's how it is. This metaphor is really vivid."

The setting sun gradually sank, and the figures of the two gradually faded away.

……

From Qiluo to Quxianwei, it takes two days to go through a large Gobi Desert.

There are few plants in the Gobi Desert, let alone edible things.

Fortunately, Wang Gangquan and his wife had already made preparations, and they had stockpiled dry food and clean water in advance, so they didn't need to suffer from hunger.

The two walked for a day, except for the rocks and yellow sand along the way, there was really nothing worth admiring. The only thing that could be called interesting on the way was probably the group of thieves they met at noon.

On a large open field, two swordsmen, each wielding crappy sword skills, were killing their lives there. There were four or five spectators around, all with knives hanging from their waists and scars on their bodies. It looked like they had tied their heads in their pants all year round character on the belt.

Originally, Wang Gangquan just wanted to watch the fun, but unexpectedly got into trouble.

Among the five onlookers, a blind guy appeared, who probably regarded Wang Gangquan and Wang Gangquan as ignorant sons and daughters, and after whispering with his companions, he walked towards them.

"Brother, borrow some money."

A short and skinny guy spoke first, and the other party said to borrow money, but his eyes kept looking at Yan Rongrong.

You must know that in this Gobi Desert, girls are rarer than gold, especially a tender girl like Yan Rongrong now, and it may not be possible to see one in a few months.

There was a son-in-law before, maybe he had heard too many martial arts stories, and he dared to travel with his beautiful family with a beautiful sword.

The two chatted and laughed all the way, unaware that they had already been watched. That night, a group of thieves surrounded them, and the young master was wrapped around his neck by a rope before he could react, and was dragged for more than ten miles. died.

As for the woman with fluttering robes, she was naturally better than death. She was eaten by more than a dozen thieves in turn, and finally she couldn't bear the humiliation and died by hitting a rock.

This incident spread throughout the Gobi Desert, making the rest of the thieves who did not participate in it envious. Today, they happened to meet Wang Gangquan and the two of them, and these thieves who did everything except good things couldn't help being moved, especially the skinny leader. The man, after seeing Yan Rongrong dressed in red, became even more enraged, and wished he could be executed immediately on the spot.

……

"roll!"

Facing this group of flies, Wang Gangquan didn't bother to say a word.

"Damn it, don't eat the toast and eat fine wine, brothers, chop off this kid's hands and feet!" The skinny man said.

Although he is short in stature, he is a small leader in the gang. Because he is good at attacking people in three ways, and his attacks are ruthless, he was dubbed the "Rolling Dragon".

No matter how proficient this person is in Xiasan Road, compared with Miss Yan in front of him, he is still a little pale.

With a smile on his face, Yan Rongrong got off his horse and walked slowly to the "Rolling Earth Dragon". Before the other party understood what was going on, he kicked out instantly, hitting the vital point.

Yan Rongrong's tricks are so tricky that even Wang Quanquan in his heyday had to weigh it, let alone a bandit who knows how to practice three-legged cat kung fu.

The man known as the "Rolling Dragon" was hit so hard that he immediately fell to his knees and rolled in pain, becoming a veritable "Rolling Dragon".

……

"Damn it, give it to me!"

While the man was in pain, he spat out these words viciously, and the others looked at each other when they heard the words, and rushed towards Yan Rongrong with the weapons drawn from their waists.

Wang Gangquan wanted to make a move, but saw his daughter-in-law made a gesture, followed by three punches and two kicks, knocking everyone down to the ground.

clap, clap, clap...

"Young lady is very skilled."

Wang Gangquan exclaimed, he really thinks highly of these bandits.

Yan Rongrong picked up a weapon that fell on the ground, walked up to the thin man, knelt down and said:

"Just now you looked at this girl with obscene eyes, and this girl stabbed your eyes blindly. If you do it again in the future, this girl will cut you off alive, so that you will not be able to be obscene for the rest of your life."

After Yan Rongrong finished speaking, he raised the knife and slashed across the opponent's eyes with precision.

The skinny man covered his eyes with a scream of "Oh", and blood immediately flowed out from between his fingers.

Yan Rongrong blankly glanced around at the rest of the people lying on the ground, and got back on his horse.

Wang Gangquan smiled and said sincerely:
"My lady is truly a bodhisattva."

"That is."

……

The two swordsmen who were competing in the distance also stopped at this time, and looked at this side with embarrassing expressions.

It turned out that their death was fake, and it was true that they wanted to join this thieves through a competition, but seeing five big men being beaten to the ground by a little girl, they had no intention of competing.

The two looked at each other, and one of them spoke first:
"Where are we going to eat later?"

"Xu Erniang's bun shop."

"Let's go, my treat."

……

When Wang Gangquan and his wife walked fifty miles away, Yan Rongrong suddenly burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, that kind of waste is also equipped to rob houses. When my mother came out to mess around, they didn't know where they were."

Wang Gangquan had a smile on his face, "Young lady is indeed a hundred households appointed by the imperial court. Beating up a few thieves is just like playing."

"Hmph, if I have a spear in my hand, let alone five thieves, even fifty would be fine."

Wang Gangquan seemed to have a feeling when he heard this, and changed the subject:

"My lady's words made me understand some truths."

"What's the reason?" Yan Rongrong turned his head sideways.

"People in the Jianghu have always liked to give their weapons some names, such as the king of a hundred soldiers, the commander of a hundred soldiers, the king of a hundred soldiers... the bigger the name, the better.

But in the final analysis, whether it is a knife or a sword, they are nothing more than murder weapons, so what is the difference between high and low?
In the Great Qin Dynasty thousands of years ago, the Twelve Bronze Men were built with all the weapons from all over the world, but in the end, they were rebelled by the rebels holding sticks?
People in the Jianghu have always had the same name, and with a handful of scraps of iron in their hands, they can't wait to have a famous name.

Just like the old man Ye before, he had the nerve to show a 'black brow' even with a broken sword. To be honest, I was ashamed for him. "

Wang Gangquan spit out his thoughts in one breath, Yan Rongrong smiled after hearing this, and teased:
"How come you have also imitated the groaning of the literati?"

Wang Gangquan sighed and said helplessly:
"It's just casual talk, if the senior who is named after the sword listens to it, Bao Buqi will break the ten-year agreement and come to kill me, a junior, regardless of face.

By the way, lady, since you like to use guns so much, is there any famous gun in the world that you want? "

Yan Rongrong thought for a while and said:

"Indeed, there is a chiseled golden gun, which is said to be the top ten famous guns in the world, and it is in the hands of a general in Beitu.

When I accompanied my second elder brother in the battle, I once took a look from a distance, and my prestige was tight. "

"Could it be more majestic than the pole on my Xianggong?" Wang Gangquan asked with a smirk.

"you also have?"

Yan Rongrong was taken aback for a moment, but soon after she understood, she said with a pretty face flushed:
"Wang Quanquan!"

"Oh, there seems to be an inn ahead, I'll go and explore the way ahead."

As Wang Gangquan said, he slapped the white horse's buttocks and walked away.
