Chapter 57 Arrival in Kyoto
As the river god was subdued by the powerful little monk, the heaven and earth suddenly returned to peace.
Everyone witnessed the miraculous battle with their own eyes, as if they were in a dream. They didn't react for a while, and they knelt down and stared dumbly at the Buddha who was shining with the Buddha's light.
"Pah~"
The little monk floating in the air suddenly fell into the river, splashing with water.
The sound of falling into the water suddenly woke up everyone on the dragon boat.
"Quick, come, hurry up and rescue the master who fell into the water!"
The Sheriff immediately commanded the people around him, and for a while people came and went, creating a mess.
On the contrary, when the people on the shore saw their Buddha suddenly fainted and fell into the water, dozens of fishermen with excellent water skills jumped out from the crowd, ranging in age from childish teenagers to those in their prime.
In the prime of middle age, there are even half a hundred people with gray hair.
Falling into the water like a dumpling.
Swim quickly in the river towards the place where the young monk fell into the water.
But Dugu Feng got a small boat from nowhere, rowed the oar quickly, and rushed towards the center of the lake.
In less than a stick of incense, with the help of everyone, the young monk was finally carried safely to a small boat in Dugu Peak.
Under the grateful eyes of everyone, he carried Tianxiu on his back and walked towards the inn. Especially the grateful eyes of the women in the crowd made people feel bitter.
Lost and found, it becomes extremely precious.
They were holding their children, crying in pain, holding them tightly, unwilling to let go.
"Master, this monk is too powerful. He looks weak and weak, but he doesn't look like he was showing off his power just now!"
When Chang Wei and others saw the unconscious young monk behind the young master, they couldn't help but look at him with great curiosity.
"Don't look at me, I don't know either. It's better to go back to the inn and wait until Xiu'er wakes up!"
As he spoke, he looked at the waiter who led the way when he came together.
At this time, the waiter in the store stared at the unconscious young monk with admiration, "Come on, let's go~ The living Buddha is the savior of our entire city in Nangang County. He must be sent to our store to rest and serve in the room!"
Just as everyone was preparing to return to the city, the county guard's urgent shout came from behind.
"Benefactor, please go slowly. I will thank you on behalf of the people in this city~"
Dugu Feng carried the young monk on his back as if he hadn't heard anything. He turned a deaf ear and led the three people and a wolf towards the city without stopping.
"Dignified guest...Dignified guest..."
"The Sheriff is calling you!!"
The waiter who was following behind him was in a dilemma. He wanted to wait for the Sheriff behind him, but he also wanted to go back with his benefactor, the Living Buddha.
I couldn't help but stand in the middle of the road, looking back and forth at both sides, at a loss.
"Master, why don't you wait a moment for that official? After all, I'm here to thank you~"
Chang Wei followed the young master, and was also very curious about what the young master did. After all, he was also a county guard, and his status was unusual.
"If he really wants to thank Tianxiu, he should wait until Xiu'er wakes up and then express his gratitude openly, instead of pretending to be pretentious in front of a panicked crowd and trying to gain a good reputation!"
He was very dissatisfied with the behavior of this county governor, so he didn't give him any face and ignored him. He just wanted to go back to the inn to rest.
Waiting for Tianxiu to wake up and asking about the situation, he was also very curious about what happened to Tianxiu.
Three hours later.
Tianxiu lay motionless on the bed. If his chest wasn't rising and breathing, everyone would have thought he had burped.
“Dong dong dong!!!”
There was a rapid knock on the door of the guest room.
"Dear guest, has the Bengong Living Buddha awakened? The county governor has sent someone to inquire for the fifth time!"
The waiter whispered humbly to the room outside the door, sweat dripping from his forehead. He had run up and down the stairs dozens of times in half a day, and he really didn't have the energy to bother like this anymore.
"Brother, please go down and tell the official that the young monk has not yet woken up. Ask him to come back tomorrow! Don't disturb the living Buddha's rest..."
Behind the door, Dugu Feng was drinking tea and replying to the waiter's words in an old-fashioned manner.
"But......."
"There's nothing more to do. It's important for the living Buddha to rest!"
After saying that, there was no response from the room.
The waiter stood at the door and could only return in frustration, wiping his sweat and walking downstairs.
"Master, is Monk Xiu okay?" When there was no sound outside the door, Chang Wei couldn't bear his temper and asked worriedly.
"It should be fine. I just checked his body. There is no serious problem in the meridians in the body. It should be due to severe mental loss, overdraft, collapse, and coma. It should be fine if he gets enough rest!" Ye Kai, who was usually silent, suddenly continued.
The person next to me asked with a cold face.
"嘤...咛..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tianxiu, who was lying on the bed, suddenly made a sound of waking up.
"Hmm~ Where am I? Am I not dead?" Tianxiu opened his eyes and looked around, looking at the four people in front of him, covering his shiny big head in pain, and asked weakly.
"You are alive and well. Even my appearance of splitting the sky cannot die, let alone you, a living Buddha..."
Dugu Feng looked at the little monk who was staggering to sit up, and teased him enthusiastically.
"Amitabha...how is it possible? The young monk clearly remembers that I was swallowed into the belly of the strange fish. Why am I still lying here safe and sound?"
"Ah~ headache!"
Tianxiu gently held her forehead and tried hard to recall the scene at that time, but everything went blank and caused a headache.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk...Master, you were so stupid at that time, you just put the fat-headed fish into the bowl with a few snaps! Now the people all over the city call you the living Buddha~"
Seeing Tianxiu looking at everyone with a confused expression, Chang Wei couldn't help but stand up and explain to him how powerful he was at that time.
"Huh? Isn't this what I saw in my dream? Did it really happen?"
"Amitabha...."
After hearing Chang Wei's words, Tianxiu suddenly recalled that when she was unconscious, it was very similar to what she saw and heard in her dream, and she couldn't help but look weird.
At that time, I thought I was dead, and the bizarre sights I encountered were all illusions leading to the paradise world. Who knew that these were all real, and I was stunned and froze in bed.
"Why, Xiu'er, you have no memory at all of what happened after you swallowed the fish's belly?"
Seeing his strange face, Dugu Feng stood up and walked to him, looking at him with concern.
"I have no memory at all, and I even have a splitting headache..." Looking at Brother Ye's caring eyes, he tried to remember.
"Then do you have a purple and gold alms bowl by your side?"
"Young Master Ye, do you think this is it?"
After hearing his words, Tianxiu took out the copper bowl he usually used for alms from his old cloth bag and handed it to him for inspection.
"Master, how could this dull and rough copper bowl be the purple and gold alms bowl that shines with Buddha's light?"
"Don't talk if you don't understand. Since ancient times, spiritual treasures have been hiding their spiritual power. According to legend, all truly spiritual instruments know how to conceal themselves. Perhaps this is the case with this copper bowl. Only when the time is right can it become a blockbuster!"
"Look at the bottom of this bowl, does it look like there is a fish swimming by itself..." Dugu Feng took the copper bowl and observed it carefully, and suddenly found something strange inside the copper bowl.
"Ah, Master, there really is a fish!"
Hearing this, everyone came to watch the bronze bowl. They were all convinced that the bronze bowl was the shining purple gold bowl.
Then pass it on to others to watch and marvel at it.
"Xiu'er, please go to bed early. If you have anything to do, we can talk about it tomorrow~"
Returning the copper bowl to Tianxiu, looking at his pale face, Dugu Feng couldn't help but lead everyone out of the room.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Dugu Feng and others took Tianxiu and arrived at the Qingyi River Pier without alerting the county governor, preparing to cross the river and continue their journey north.
"Living Buddha, are you going to cross the river?"
The ferryman on the riverside saw Tianxiu and others and immediately ran up to ask.
"Amitabha, thank you, old man..."
In this way, Tianxiu, who had nothing to do, followed Dugufeng and others all the way north to Kyoto.
After half a month of traveling, they finally arrived in front of the city of Kyoto.
However, not three hours after Tianxiu and the others crossed the river, another girl came to the ferry.
I saw this girl in a light yellow dress, fluffy hair, youthful and cute.
