Not far away, there was a man crawling on the ground, crawling like a big turtle. He used his hands and feet to crawl very slowly, and he had to stop and rest every few steps.
This man is a bald man with a scar on his bald head. He is wearing a monk's robe. The monk's robe does not look old, but there are big holes and small eyes everywhere on the monk's robe. It looks like he has climbed a long way.
It looked like he was ready to continue climbing.
"Is the big turtle an honest monk?" Su Yang walked up to him and asked.
The monk shook his head and said: "Of course the big turtle is not an honest monk. A big turtle is a big turtle, and an honest monk is an honest monk."
"Then are you a big turtle or an honest monk?" Su Yang said with a smile.
The honest monk is indeed very honest: "I am not a big turtle, I am an honest monk."
"Oh, when did Monk Honest start to learn how to crawl on a turtle? Is he practicing martial arts?" Su Yang asked.
The honest monk said sadly: "It's uncomfortable to crawl like a tortoise. Even if it's to practice the best martial arts in the world, monk, I won't learn to crawl like a tortoise. It's just..."
"Just what?"
The honest monk sighed: "But if it's to save his life, the monk doesn't care even if he turns into a big turtle." As he spoke, he crawled forward a small, very short section.
"Can someone take the life of an honest monk? If you don't turn into a big turtle, I will kill you?" Su Yangqi asked: "Does Lu Xiaofeng not care? Aren't you friends?"
Mentioning Lu Xiaofeng, Honest Monk's face became even more bitter.
He turned over. Only then did he realize that the monk's robe on his chest and abdomen had been completely worn away, exposing his white belly. He was lying on the ground like a big turtle basking in the sun. His white belly was exposed and basking in the sun.
With a sad face, he said: "Lu Xiaofeng can't take care of himself, so how can he take care of me? Having met Lu Xiaofeng, the monk has been unlucky for eight lifetimes."
"Why?"
"It's because the monk and Lu Xiaofeng are friends that the monk turned into a turtle."
"I don't understand. Could it be that Lu Xiaofeng stole your wife?" Su Yang actually lay side by side with him on the ground to bask in the sun.
"The monk doesn't have a wife, so he can't steal it. Even if the monk has a wife, the monk can't beat him." The honest monk sighed.
"Oh, I understand. The monk and Lu Xiaofeng are friends, so Lu Xiaofeng is in trouble. The monk has to help him, but the trouble is too big. So the monk can only crawl away slowly. The slower the better.
, it’s best to wait until you crawl away and the trouble is over, so that the monk can be worthy of his friends and won’t get into trouble!" Su Yang said.
The honest monk admitted frankly: "Yes, yes, yes, the monk thought for several days before he came up with this way to get the best of both worlds."
"What is the trouble?"
"It's not too much trouble." The honest monk thought for a while and said, "It's only one to twenty million taels of silver."
"Ten or twenty million taels of silver?"
"Yes, one to twenty million taels of silver." The honest monk nodded and began to count on his fingers: "The eighteen dendrobium pearls in Prince Pingnan's Mansion, the seventy volumes of priceless calligraphy and paintings collected by Hua Yuxuan, the eighty in Zhenyuan
A batch of red goods from Zhendongbao, ninety thousand taels of gold leaves from Jinsha River..."
He didn't speak very fast, but he had a really good memory. He talked about sixty or seventy major cases in a row as if he were chanting sutras, counting them six or seven times with his fingers before he finished.
The things he mentioned are indeed worth at least 10 to 20 million, maybe far more.
"These cases were all done by Lu Xiaofeng?" Su Yang said: "But how did I hear that it was done by a thief who knew how to embroider?"
"It was indeed made by the embroidery thief. Not only can this man embroider, but he can also embroider blind men. It is said that he has embroidered at least seventy or eighty blind men recently. He used his embroidery needles to embroider. Two needles embroidered a Changmantian with Zhenyuan.
Hua Yifan of Hua Yuxuan, Jiang Chongwei of Pingnan Palace..." He named a few people in a long and lengthy manner. At least half of these people were well-known characters in the world, and their skills were very good.
The work done is also hard enough.
"I still don't understand, what does this matter have to do with Lu Xiaofeng?"
"These cases all occurred within a month, but Lu Xiaofeng was particularly generous during this period."
The honest monk began to count with his fingers again as if chanting sutras: "Three million victims have been rescued in Henan, and half a million orphans and widows have been rescued from Zhengqi Tower in Guanzhong..." He said a dozen things in a row, each one
The amount of money spent on this thing is shocking. The total amount is exactly 10 to 20 million, maybe even more.
"Tell me, where did he get so much money?" the honest monk asked Su Yang seriously.
"Maybe he won the bet or dug up a treasure." Su Yang smiled and said, "Didn't he have an explanation?"
"Of course he explained. He said it was the money from the Qingyi Building." The honest monk said: "But the Qingyi Building collapsed long ago, and Huo Xiu is nowhere to be found. How can he explain it clearly?"
"It seems that he can only clear himself of his grievances by finding the real embroidery thief?"
"That's right." The honest monk said with a smile: "When he finds the real embroidery thief, the monk will definitely crawl to him. Since he is so rich and the monk is so loyal, ask him to spend millions on him.
He must be embarrassed not to give it to me because of the money."
Su Yang nodded and suddenly smiled: "We have been talking for a long time, do you know who I am?"
The honest monk nodded: "Of course I know you. I just don't know you, but I also know your sword. You used to be a fast sword, but now your sword is still fast, but there is blood on it."
"Then you are here, as if you are waiting for me?"
The honest monk stopped talking. Honest people don't lie, so they don't say anything they can't say.
...........
The vegetarian dishes made by Master Balsam Gua are unparalleled in the world. It is said that even a Bodhisattva's heart will be moved by the vegetarian dishes he makes.
Unparalleled things are often rare. If you can get them often, they will be worthless even if they are unparalleled.
Master Bitter Melon must understand this very well, so he hasn’t cooked with his own hands for more than a year, but just like that, his vegetarian dishes have become even more famous.
But now he was busy in the kitchen, and the pots of plain ham and pots of pot stickers and tofu that had been prepared in the room outside were all turned upside down.
Lu Xiaofeng held the chopsticks in one hand and tapped them on the empty plate boredly, making a ding-ding-ding sound, while raising her head and looking toward the kitchen.
"You have done so many cases, but you still have the nerve to eat and drink here?" Su Yang asked.
"Do you even believe that I did this?" Lu Xiaofeng glared at him and said, "Don't you know where my money came from? Isn't it the trick you gave me to defraud Huo Xiu out of all his money?
of."
"But you only blew up 10 to 20 million. It seems like you are really not suitable for doing this kind of thing."
Lu Xiaofeng said helplessly: "I know that ten or twenty million may not even be 10% of his wealth, but even if I have great ability, I can't make a dead man spit out money."
"Huo Xiu is dead?" Su Yang remembered clearly that less than a year had passed since the last time he left Lu Xiaofeng. With Huo Xiu's martial arts, he shouldn't have died so quickly, let alone Lu Xiaofeng.
Nor is he a person who likes to torture people.
Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said: "Once a person loses his power and freedom, he always dies quickly, just like an eagle in the sky. If you put him in a cage with a parrot, he won't survive long.
"
"Then the rest of his wealth must have gone with him in the wind?"
"Gold and silver are not ashes, how can they go away with the wind?" Lu Xiaofeng shook his head: "As long as you are still in this world, there will always be people who will benefit. Why does it have to be in our hands?"
Suddenly there was a burst of applause: "Well said! Just based on these words, I am sure that those cases cannot be done by you!"
Following this sound, a person came in from the door.
This person is of course Jin Jiuling, the younger brother of Master Balsam Pear and the number one master of the Six Sects in the past three hundred years.
Many people in the world know that there are two things about Jin Jiuling that few people can match. His clothes, and his eyes. Jin Jiuling's eyes are not particularly big, nor are they particularly bright, but as long as he is touched by him
Those who have seen it once will never forget it.
The materials of Jin Jiuling's clothes are always the noblest, the styles are always the latest, and the workmanship is always the most exquisite. The fan in his hand is also a fine product worth thousands of gold. When necessary, it can also be used as a weapon. Jin Jiuling knows the acupuncture points.
The skills are all top-notch.
In fact, he is first-rate in everything. He cannot drink wine that is not first-rate, look down on women who are not first-rate, and will never ride in a car that is not first-rate.
But he is not a first-class rich man. Fortunately, he still has a lot of money-making skills. He is good at identifying antique calligraphy and painting, and is good at telling horses. These two things are enough for him to live a first-class life forever.
.
What's more, he is a very handsome and attractive man, and he doesn't look too old, which allows him to save a lot of money on the easiest thing to spend money on. Others need a lot of money to win a beautiful woman with a smile, but he does.
Often it costs nothing.
Therefore, he has always lived a comfortable life and has always taken good care of himself. He does not look like a martial arts master who is famous for being feared by his friends in the underworld, but he looks like a playboy who goes around the world.
What's more important is that Jin Jiuling is Jiang Chongwei's good friend and the best arrester in the world at that time. Although he has long since quit, he still has to take care of these things.
"It seems that Master Balsam Pear's meal is not for free," Su Yang said.
"Eating is eating, and helping is helping. Even if you, Lu Xiaofeng, are not willing to help me find the embroidery thief, I don't believe it was you."
Jin Jiuling is indeed a person who values loyalty to friends. Unfortunately, if a person places too much emphasis on loyalty to friends in the world, it will inevitably be difficult to get along with others. I am afraid this is also one of the reasons why he retreated so quickly. (To be continued...)
