MTL - I Was an Abbot in Ancient Times-Chapter 29
"My brother found the magic weapon one step at a time. It was my brother who lost, and I am willing to accept the bet. Two days later, I will invite my brother to have a vegetarian feast at Taiyang Building!"
When they went to Taiyang Tower that day, there was indeed a table of good food waiting for them.
Zhang Yanjiu asked Lin Zhao for a bronze chime bell with a smile, and when he got it, he was amazed that it was indeed a magic weapon.
Lin Zhao ignored the envy in his words, looked at the lake scenery in the distance outside the window, and exaggerated that Yanjiu chose a good location, commanding a panoramic view of the scenery, and being comfortable and comfortable facing the wind and water.
Hearing the longing in his words, Zhang Yanjiu said, "Why don't we go boating on the lake later?"
Lin Zhao naturally did not disagree.
After several people finished eating, they went to the lake and found a boatman to board a boat on the lake.
On the shore of the lake, besides cruise ships, there are also many fishing boats. One fishing boat just returned with a full load, selling fresh fish with pedestrians.
Lin Zhao passed by and saw a turtle struggling in the net, his small eyes the size of mung beans precisely met his line of sight, as if calling for help.
Lin Zhao couldn't help laughing, feeling incredible for his own thoughts, maybe he had been influenced by incense for a long time, and he had more compassion and compassion for others?
He finally paid for the turtle. At this time, Zhang Yanjiu had just negotiated with the boatman, so Lin Zhao boarded the boat and put the turtle back into the water.
"Go, be careful next time, don't be caught by the net again."
The turtle that was put back into the water just sank to the bottom, when it heard the words, it popped up again and spit bubbles at him, as if responding to his words, then sank back to the bottom and disappeared.
Seeing it, Buerbuti exclaimed, "You **** who understands human nature."
There is quite a lot of space in the cabin, and Zhang Yanjiu used his tricks to spit out all kinds of melons, fruits, snacks and tea from the gourd.
When Bu Er was not tired, he huddled around and muttered something while peeling and eating peanuts.
Huitong stood at the bow of the boat facing the wind, like a patron saint, very majestic.
"Brother Zhang, I heard that immortals who have practiced the Tao can walk against the wind. I wonder if there is such a technique?"
"Hahaha, brother, do you also want to try the freedom of riding the wind? There is such a technique in the technique, and I also yearn for it as a brother, but it is only hopeful but not available."
The two chatted along the way, talking about each other's travel experiences, talking about what they thought of, and slowly rowed to the center of the lake.
Here you can't see the shore at a glance, the vast lake seems to be connected with the sea water, and the sky is bright and the lake is full of colors.
Suddenly there was a sound of splashing water, mixed with exclamation for help, it seemed that someone was drowning!
Lin Zhao and Zhang Yanjiu followed the sound to the stern to check. There was indeed a person struggling against the water not far away.
He hurriedly called Huitong to save him, and at the same time he wondered why this person drowned and struggled in the middle of the lake without making a sound.
After Huitong fished him out, he helped to squeeze out the water in his abdomen, and he woke up.
This man wore a crimson official robe with a golden pheasant pattern embroidered on his chest, and claimed to be the Minister of the Household Department, which surprised everyone.
The Minister of Tobe is not in Kyoto, why did he suddenly appear in the center of the lake in Yangzhou Fucheng?
Knowing that he was in Yangzhou, Sun Wenshu turned pale with fright. He just fell asleep, opened his eyes and woke up to find that he was already very frightened when he saw a lake, and now he told him that he was in Yangzhou, thousands of miles away from the capital?
How could he come from his own mansion in Kyoto to the center of Yangzhou Lake?
But besides being confused and amazed, he has other things to worry about at this time, and there are important things to report in the court tomorrow, so how can he live up to His Majesty's entrustment if he delays the time now?
It will take half a month to travel from Yangzhou to Kyoto by land and water!
This... this is beyond the reach of human beings!
Thinking of this, Sun Wenshu beat his chest in despair for a long while, then slumped his shoulders dejectedly.
After planning and planning for so long, is he finally going to fall into the sand with his halberd and fall short? ! How can he be worthy of His Majesty's trust!
For a moment, Sun Wenshu felt that he wished he could touch the ground and die. Looking at the lake again, if he wanted to plunge into it, he might be rescued by the people in the boat, which would be a waste of effort.
Unable to die, unable to return, Sun Wenshu's chest was full of depression and resentment.
"Huh-wow-"
Huge ripples suddenly appeared in the lake and began to rotate rapidly, gradually forming a whirlpool.
Seeing that the boat was about to be sucked in, suddenly.
A huge black turtle appeared from the vortex, set off layers of huge waves, and then fell and slapped on the lake surface, splashing water on everyone.
The splash of water made everyone excited, and Qi Qi looked at the giant turtle in astonishment.
But the giant tortoise looked at Lin Zhao and said, "Thank you benefactor for saving the children in the clan. The Xuangui clan owes you a kindness. What wishes does your benefactor have?"
Lin Zhao was stunned, looking at this shocking giant tortoise, does it have horns on its head?
The turtle he bought at random turned out to be a child of the Xuangui tribe, what kind of luck is he doing?
wish? His life has been quite fulfilling recently...
"Otherwise..." Lin Zhao looked at the household servant with a dull face, "You can send him home."
He sent out this wish almost as a joke, without him, for Lin Zhao, he only heard about this kind of story of repaying gratitude and fulfilling his wish in bedtime fairy tales, which is really a bit unreal.
Hearing the words, the household servant looked at Lin Zhao gratefully, as if grasping at straws.
Xuangui nodded, opened his mouth, and a ball of white light burst out from his mouth, inhaling Sun Wenshu, the household servant, and then sank to the bottom of the lake and disappeared.
Later, the secret letter from the emperor told about this matter. In words, I am extremely grateful to the giant tortoise and the monk.
Only then did Lin Zhao know that Sun Wenshu and His Majesty the Emperor had joined forces to collect some evidence of embezzlement of the treasury by the minister of the household department of the left camp, and planned to pull him down and let the servant of the household department take over to cultivate and strengthen his own power.
By accident, it turned out that I helped my own people.
[Congratulations, you have achieved achievements to unlock 6 buildings in the temple, unlock the AI monk Changmei Master, get soap formula x1, scripture x1.
Master Changmei will arrive soon, please check!]
Master Changmei is an image of an elder, as the name suggests, with long white eyebrows and a white beard, wearing a cassock, it looks very profound in Buddhism.
However, his introduction is:
[Character: Master Changmei (Although he seems to be proficient in Buddhism, he seems to be better at crafting?)
Stamina: 10
Perception: 40
Charm: 20
Talent: mediocre]
Lin Zhao opened the soap formula, glanced at it, and handed it to Master Changmei, asking him to try to make it.
"Just ask for any materials you want."
In a few days, Master Changmei made soap, in various shapes and with various floral fragrances.
Lin Zhao picked a piece of plum blossom shape and stuffed it into a brocade box together with the soap recipe, and asked the hidden guard to give it to His Majesty the Emperor, and wrote a secret letter about the soap's use and cleaning effect.
Didn't His Majesty always cry about being poor and unable to cultivate talents? This soap is enough for him to fight that traitor for a while.
After that, Changmei also added Diyong Jinlian to the soap, which made the soap have more patterns like gold leaf, which can represent the characteristics of Qingquan Temple.
"Abbot, I heard that other temples have consecration utensils for pilgrims to invite them home. Does our temple have any? Several pilgrims have asked me recently."
One day, Buti ran to Lin Zhao to inquire.
Consecration business? It seems that it is not impossible to start. Lin Zhao pondered what to do.
When building the Daxiong Palace before, in order to pursue high-quality wood, he even used golden nanmu, which is "uncorrupted for thousands of years and immortal for thousands of years" for the main beam, so a lot of money was spent at once.
Now it is enough to support the temple's rice grain for one month.
But Lin Zhao has a kind of intuition of confidence, he can earn the money back soon, so he doesn't regret spending so much money on the construction of the Daxiong Palace.
So when a pilgrim asked again, he replied without being tired, "The abbot said that the benefactor should be asked to bring the things in the house to consecrate, so that the connection between the consecrated magic weapon and the benefactor will be closer."
In fact, Lin Zhao was too lazy to go down the mountain to buy goods.
An old lady wearing a lotus pattern on her head and wiping her forehead heard this, and immediately sent people down the mountain to fetch a jade lion paperweight ornament from her home.
This jade lion ornament is usually placed on the desk, it is not too big, about the size of an adult man's fist.
At this time, it squatted obediently on the ground, with its eyes half closed, facing Lin Zhao in front of the wooden fish.
Lin Zhao knocked on the wooden fish with one hand, put his palm on his chest with the other, moved his lips and teeth up and down, and the scriptures woven by the white wish power, which is hard to see with the naked eye, slowly poured into the body of the white jade lion as pure white spiritual power.
Because the incense is strong these days, his wish power is much stronger than before.
The usual consecration ceremony requires many monks and the steps are cumbersome, but Lin Zhao only took a quarter of an hour to complete the consecration ceremony, and the effect is very good.
At this time, white and golden brilliance flowed inside the white jade lion. Lin Zhao gathered his fingertips and dabbed a little on its eyes. The jade lion with half-closed eyes opened its round eyes, and there seemed to be light in them.
The old lady held her eyes round and piercing, and the majestic jade lion was so happy, she couldn't keep her mouth shut, she waved her big hand, and threw three hundred taels of silver into the merit box.
She laughed all the way, holding the jade lion like a baby, and covered it with a wide sleeve robe, for fear of being snatched away by people who saw the appearance of the jade lion.
Back home, her grandson Zhou Youlin just walked into the lobby, saw her baby look, and went forward to lift the sleeve robe with a smile.
Zhou Youlin has always been favored, and his behavior is mostly unrestrained, and he does as he pleases.
When he saw the jade lion paperweight, he looked disappointed.
"Hey, my dear grandmother, I thought it was some kind of treasure, but it turned out to be just a jade lion paperweight in my room? If you like it, you can take it back to the room, and my grandson won't care about it with you."
The old lady slapped Zhou Youlin's hand that was casually twitching the tail of the jade lion hard, startling him.
Why did his grandmother suddenly treat him so fiercely? It was because of an ordinary jade lion paperweight.
"Go, go! It's not because of you who are jumping up and down all day long. When you are so old, your grandmother will worry about you. I'm afraid that you will get into trouble with those **** one day. This is because I went to Qingquan Temple to ask the master to read scriptures and consecrate it." of!"
"Put it in your study and keep it well. Don't treat it like an ordinary paperweight."
Zhou Youlin cheered up when he heard the words, so that's the case, but it was just a blessing, so why are you so serious about it?
He had also heard about the Qingquan Temple, and the miraculous deeds were just rumors. He still doesn't know these people, a "dog" spoken by one person can become a "human" after it spreads across the street.
How could someone as sensible and sober as he be deceived like these philistines?
"As you please! I still want to go to see brother Liu, he suddenly became very ill recently!" Zhou Youlin turned around and was about to leave.
"Hey! You come back to me! You have to invite this jade lion back to the study in person to show respect, you know!"
Zhou Youlin sighed and wanted to refuse, but the look in the eyes of the old lady was really scary.
That's all, it's just a trip back to the study.
With a helpless expression on his face, he also took the jade lion with both hands like a treasure, and carried it back to the study.
The old lady was worried, she must watch Zhou Youlin Fang with her own eyes, and followed her all the way.
"The Liu Family Dalang is really so sick?"
Old Madam Nahan, two days ago, the news that Mr. Liu's family on the East Street suddenly became seriously ill was widely circulated.
Mr. Liu's family has always been in good health. Over the years, other children have more or less been sick, but he has been alive and kicking for more than ten years, and he can run all night and swim the next day.
How did this suddenly become so sick?
