This restaurant is called Xiangyunzhai, and it is famous throughout the Holy Son Kingdom. There is an endless stream of diners coming here every day.
Xiangyunzhai does not sell meat, but it is famous for its delicious meat.
What the chefs are most proud of is that they can use various vegetarian foods to create a variety of monster meat flavors.
Not only foreigners come here because of its reputation, but local people also like to come here to eat.
As for those who practice Buddhism and believe in Buddhism from all over the world, they even want to taste this famous vegetarian restaurant.
The interior and exterior decoration of Xiangyunzhai is magnificent, especially in the middle of the lobby, there is a lotus platform slightly higher than the ground.
The silk and bamboo on the lotus platform are melodious, and eight plump dancers, barefoot, with delicate little bells hanging on their white ankles, holding pipa behind their backs, with colorful ribbons flying, are performing a wonderful dance.
The lobby is very quiet.
After throwing the cup, all I could hear was the sloppy old man’s yelling and cursing, and even the sound of silk and bamboo on the stage became the background.
"The store is bullying customers, it's not a thing!"
"The store is bullying customers, it's not a thing!"
The old man pointed at the beautiful young girl serving the wine and kept yelling.
The beautiful little girl's face was full of anger, but she suppressed the attack.
"What's going on?"
The diners present asked each other about each other. It was a good place to eat and enjoy dancing. It was really a bit unpleasant to make such a big fuss.
An Qingli, who was sitting on a long bench, calmly took a sip of the fruit wine. The fruity aroma was mellow and tasted pretty good.
On the other hand, the beautiful woman standing next to An Qingli was filled with anger when she saw her companion being bullied. She even shook off some of the fine powder on her face.
The fine powder is eye-catching.
Ji Xiaopeng was busy guarding the wine glass, moved to An Qingli's side, and sat side by side with An Qingli to watch this lively show.
The Ji family's family motto goes like this: act according to your ability, meddle less with other people's business, and do it thoroughly if you want to, leaving no hidden dangers.
"Hey, what else could happen?"
A diner who often dines here spoke up.
It turned out to be that sloppy old man, who was not a local. When he was young, he was a rich man with a lot of money, but he was very greedy and used silver and gold to exchange the deed of his ancestral home and land for spiritual stones.
All his wealth was spent on food, and it is said that later on, he even pawned his wife, concubines, and children.
Not long ago, I finally managed to collect ten low-grade spiritual stones and borrowed some foreign debt, so I came to Xiangyunzhai for a feast.
It was a delicious meal, but after finishing it, I was shocked to realize that there was no beef in the famous beef-flavored golden pheasant, but a kind of mushroom instead.
Not only is there no beef, but there is also no chicken meat, and another thing is used instead.
The sloppy old man felt that he had been deceived, so he threw the bowl and the butterfly and scolded him at that time.
The scolding was so unpleasant that the owner of Xiangyunzhai was alarmed.
The boss explained that Xiangyunzhai specializes in vegetarian food and makes vegetarian food into meat-flavored dishes. Customers who come into the store should know this rule, and the ingredients in the dish are genuine rice and grass, which are really not cheap.
.
The sloppy old man refused to accept it, saying that since there was no beef or golden pheasant, this dish should not be named this way.
Xiangyunzhai tried his best to persuade her, but the sloppy old man just refused to listen. He just felt aggrieved, dissatisfied, and felt he had been deceived.
Reasoning doesn't make sense.
The sloppy old man even fell to the ground and cried like a mess.
In the end, the government was alarmed.
The sloppy old man still said with a pinched neck that he had been deceived and that he wanted to die in order to make sure that this store would never live in peace.
The restaurant owner endured the nausea as if he had swallowed a fly, returned the ten low-grade spiritual stones, and told the old man to get out of here.
"Hey! Tsk tsk tsk"
Hearing this, there were constant sighs in the lobby.
Xiao Lingxi also sighed: "I've heard of people who seek life and death for beauty and lose all their wealth. This is the first time I've heard of people who sell their children and daughters for the sake of food and drink."
An Qingli took a sip of the fruit wine and said, "It's all caused by desire. When desire is not controlled, lust, appetite, greed, etc., can mess up people's hearts. Desire is normal, but it must be within a controllable range.
"
Xiao Jintan said: "So the Buddhist rule is that Buddhist disciples are not allowed to eat meat, not only because they are not allowed to kill, but also because it is to make the disciples less hungry. What Buddhism advocates is a pure heart and few desires."
An Qingli understood, and couldn't help but think of the meat-loving elder Hui Xi, who was so independent, just like a butterfly covered with bows, no matter whether he was right or wrong, but it was difficult to tolerate the people around him, but that was for sure.
Although it was said that An Qingli, who was born in Taoism, did not reject Elder Huixi, but rather admired him.
As for Meng Die, he shows off and embarrasses regardless of the occasion, so it’s really hard to say that he likes her.
Although An Qingli is tolerant of people, he also has clear preferences for people.
She is not willing to make excuses for people she doesn't like, which is not like Buddhism.
Buddhism advocates the equality of all living beings and repaying evil with kindness. When someone spits on you, you will do it yourself.
The Taoist An Qingli couldn't do it, it was beyond her tolerance range, so she responded directly with a sword.
"The shop bully is not a thing! Good things are not a thing! Die today, let me die here!"
In the lobby, Si Zhu did not stop, but became more and more excited, as if trying to suppress the old man's unpleasant yelling.
The monks have sharp ears and eyes, so An Qingli can naturally hear the discussions everywhere.
Hearing the discussion continue again.
The old man threatened death, and finally left with ten pieces of low-grade spiritual stones. After leaving the shop, he turned around and went to the Dingyun Tower next door to have a meal.
Dingyunlou serves both meat and vegetarian dishes. Although the taste is not as good as Xiangyunzhai, the old man ate the meat and found no fault with it, so he left quite satisfied.
I thought this was the end of the matter.
Not long after, I don't know if the old man was greedy again and came to Xiangyunzhai to cause trouble again.
While drinking the free tea on the table, I talked about the meatless golden pheasant.
The restaurant owner ordered his waiter to drive people away.
Several beautiful maids worked together to throw the old man out.
A few days later, the old man disguised himself and came to the store again to bring up the old matter.
All in all, this is the fifth time that trouble has occurred.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are shameless, you are relying on it."
Some people shook their heads and commented.
"No." Someone said again, "The old man is so old, but his left hand is still twitching when he has nothing to do. The government does not kill people. At most, they will arrest him and put him in jail for a few days. He has to take care of his food. After a few days, he will be released again.
Already."
"Hey, you don't know yet." Another person said, "This old man is very smart. Because he was greedy and owed money, he was chased for debts and lost everything in his house. If the store owner spent money to buy something clean, he would be in vain.
He made some money; if the shop owner complained to the government in anger, it might have played into his hands, and he would have gone to jail to avoid the limelight and fill his stomach at the same time."
Xiao Lingxi sighed: "Why is there such a shameless thing at the foot of Foshan? How could the influence of Buddhism create such scoundrels?"
The Buddhist country of Foshan is much different from what it was originally thought to be.
