Chapter 486: The temple is small but the wind is strong
This Jinyiwei is obviously super strong, but he paddles too much Chapter 486: The temple is small and the wind is strong
Before Shuang'er could make any noise, Shi Suxue pulled her away and led the lost junior sister all the way out. She didn't let her go until she left the city.
Shuang'er said in disbelief: "Senior Sister Suxue, why did you stop me? Senior Sister Pei is with that Jin Yiwei, didn't you see it?"
In fact, there was no need for junior sister to ask, Shi Suxue's own heart was in turmoil at the moment, and she couldn't figure out why Pei Xia was with the Jin Yiwei who was chasing them.
"Sister, tell me, is it possible?"
Shuang'er spoke with some trepidation, but quickly rejected the idea. She seemed to be trying to make up for the other person and said, "It must not be the case. Senior Sister Pei must have her own difficulties."
In fact, the fact that such an idea came to her head was enough to show that she did not have 100% trust in Pei Xia. People are emotional animals, and it is always easier for them to believe things they see with their own eyes.
Shi Suxue didn't know how to tell the other party. After all, she was also full of doubts. The two junior sisters looked at each other speechlessly. At this moment, Deng Wanshui appeared.
He carefully hid behind the bushes beside the road and waved to the two of them: "This way."
After the three of them met, Shuang'er asked: "Master Deng, you are finally back. Where have you been these past two days?"
"I, I went to inquire about the news nearby and found a temple that might allow us to hide for a few days." Deng Wanshui's eyes flickered, as if he was hiding something.
Shuang'er was not suspicious. Hearing that there was a place where they could stay out of the limelight, they felt a little relieved: "I'm sorry to bother you, sir."
Shi Suxue felt something was wrong. She keenly noticed that there was a faint smell of blood on Deng Wanshui's body, and there was also a slight trace of blood on the toe of his shoe.
Mr. Deng committed a murder? Suxue was slightly surprised when she found out about this. She couldn't help but start to guess whether the other party had encountered officers and soldiers and had a fierce battle.
Thinking of this, she secretly looked around and saw nothing unusual, so she hurriedly said: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the temple that Mr. Deng found as soon as possible."
A few people went to the outskirts, drove about twenty miles, turned around and walked another incense stick, and then they saw an inconspicuous mountain temple. The three words "Jinshui Temple" were written on the old plaque.
"Jinshui Temple?" Shi Suxue looked at the plaque and said strangely: "I only heard that there is a Jinming Temple in the capital, which is famous far and wide and has great incense. I didn't know there was another Jinshui Temple."
"Perhaps the two temples are related in some way?" Shuang'er guessed.
"Maybe," Deng Wanshui said absently. He walked into the temple first and said to the two women behind him: "We'd better go and ask if you can let me stay for a few days."
"That's fine." Shi Suxue and Shuang'er nodded, and the three of them entered the small temple together.
There were only a few pilgrims in the small temple during the day, and it looked very deserted. After a few people entered, what they saw in front were the eucalyptus and the altar. Except for an old monk chanting sutras and knocking wooden fish beside it, there was only a teenage boy.
Novices are receiving pilgrims.
"I've met several donors."
When Suxue was looking at the small temple, the young novice wearing gray coarse monk's clothes came forward and saluted several people: "How many of you have come from afar and don't know why?"
Although there are only a few pilgrims coming and going in this small temple, the young novice who is responsible for welcoming guests has already developed a keen eye for recognizing people. He can tell at a glance that these people are not ordinary pilgrims.
Jinshui Temple is located in a remote area and is not well-known. People who come to offer incense are usually people from the surrounding villages, and most of them are elderly. The young monks can basically recognize each one.
When he suddenly saw these three strangers today, he became suspicious and worried that they were coming with bad intentions. Following the hint from his master, he went to ask them first.
Shi Suxue stepped forward and returned the greeting, politely saying: "Little master, we are wandering knights in the world. We are passing through here. I wonder if we can stay at your temple for a few days?"
Shuang'er followed and said: "Don't worry, young master, we understand the rules and will not cause any trouble to your temple."
"This" the young monk hesitated, and he said awkwardly: "This young monk cannot be the master of this matter. Please allow me to ask the abbot."
"Please, little master." Shi Suxue said.
The young monk raised one palm to salute, then turned around and explained to the old abbot the purpose of the three people's visit. The old monk who was knocking the wooden fish slowly looked up and glanced here. Shi Suxue and others nodded in greeting.
.
"Master, should we let them stay?" the young monk asked.
"Master Rong, go and ask." The old abbot and the old god walked over. At this moment, other pilgrims in the temple had paid their respects and left, and only these three young people were still there.
"Dear benefactors," the old abbot came up and asked, "I heard that some of you are knights from outside. I wonder if I can allow me to ask more. Why did you come to the capital?"
"I have traveled all over the world just to travel around the world. I have no purpose in coming to the capital, it's just out of interest." Shi Suxue said with a smile, with an open-minded and cheerful tone.
"That's it," the old abbot nodded with a smile, and then said sadly: "There have been many troubles recently. There has been a big scandal in the capital. Many knights from the world came to compete with the imperial court. In the end, they all lost their lives in vain. If a few of them had done it for
If the Taoist comes, please go back. A small temple like Lao Na cannot withstand such storms."
When Deng Wanshui heard this, he couldn't help but said: "You monk, you have said that your family is compassionate, but you are so timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and you still talk to Jin Yiwei, what are your intentions?"
"Master Deng! Don't be rude to the master." Shi Suxue quickly stopped him.
Over there, upon hearing Deng Wanshui's passionate expression, the old abbot's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that these people really came to the capital with the intention of "acting chivalrously and righteously"?
The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became. The old abbot recited a line of Amitabha and said hurriedly: "Everyone, please come back. This temple is so simple that it may not be able to accommodate a few people. Please forgive me."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Damn it, what a simple thing to say, you monk is obviously scared!" Deng Wan was so angry that he immediately pulled out his sword and said angrily: "Today, Mr. Ben
Let me put it here, whether you let me or not, we are here to stay!"
"Young master Deng, no!" Shi Suxue exclaimed, but Deng Wanshui's sword was already on the old abbot's neck, making him tremble with fear.
"Alms, donor, please don't be angry. It's the old man who made a mistake. It's the old man who made a mistake." The old abbot was sweating. He glanced at the blood stains on the sword and said nervously: "Guys, please come in quickly. I will take care of you right now."
People, please clean up the wing."
"snort."
Deng Wanshui sheathed his sword. The old abbot's legs were weak, so he called the young novice monk and went to clean up the room.
The few people left behind had different expressions on their faces. Shi Suxue said in confusion: "How could Mr. Deng treat this monk like this? If he refuses, we will just leave. How can he threaten him with a sword?"
Deng Wanshui said disapprovingly: "That monk has shown himself to be timid and fearful of trouble. Now everyone in the world is saddened by what happened to the Taoist priest. Yet he still speaks for the court and is still a monk. It is really hateful."
Shi Suxue frowned and said: "Young master Deng's words are wrong. What the master said is not wrong. As the abbot of a temple, he always has to consider this temple. Besides, he and the Taoist priest have never met each other, so it is useless to stay out of the matter."
Human nature."
"Miss Shi is too kind-hearted. This old monk is selfish at first glance. Now everyone is worried about Nanshan Taoist Priest. How can he be alone?" Deng Wanshui said this with a hint of anger in his eyes.
.
To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates, switch sources, read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]
Shi Suxue frowned even deeper as she listened. They helped Nanshan Immortal out of chivalry. This was an act of great justice and kindness. But if they use this as an excuse to coerce others, what does it have to do with doing evil?
