Chapter 441
After entering the relay station, he had been targeted everywhere. They had come with good intentions, but what they encountered was a ” stick “. He was extremely angry. In such a situation, this little monk still came out to show off, as if he, Hengyuan, was a clay chicken and pottery dog that could be sent flying with one palm.
In the end, he was just a little monk with rough skin and thick flesh.
.........
At the beginning of spring, the warm sun hung in the West.
Master du ‘e held the Buddhist staff in his hand and wore a golden-red Kasaya. He strolled back and stopped at the entrance of the courier station. Then, he stepped out and came to the inner courtyard.
The inner courtyard was in a state of chaos. The courier soldiers climbed Up the Ladder to the Roof and laid out the tiles. The warrior monks carried the sand to compact the cracked ground.
Among them, the one who worked the hardest was an unfamiliar big bald man. Master du ‘e sized him up a few times but didn’t say anything.
Master du ‘E’s appearance was that of a skinny old monk. His skin was dark and his face was full of wrinkles. His skinny body was wrapped in a large Kasaya, which made him look a little funny.
“Martial uncle!”
Monk jingchen came out of the house and spoke in the language of the Western Region.”Something happened while you were in the palace ...”
He told master du ‘e in detail about the real and fake Hengyuan.
Hengyuan beat jingsi up so badly that she couldn’t even fight back? ”
Master du ‘e turned his head and looked at Heng Yuan, who was working hard.
yes, ” Jing Chen nodded and then added, ” but Junior Brother jingsi isn’t injured. The Diamond Sutra isn’t something that ordinary people can break.
His tone was filled with pride.
Master du ‘e didn’t say anything and asked, “”When the first Hengyuan talked to you, did he mention anything about the evil thing? For example, he knows the origins of the evil beings and some information about them.”
Jing Chen recalled for a moment and shook his head. he only said that the sealed artifact under the Mulberry Lake was related to Buddhism. When he described the case, he said that he had seen the broken hand in Junior Brother Heng Hui’s body.
“Uncle-master, we can actually verify this. We just need to call Hengyuan over to question him.”
he really didn’t reveal any information about the evil, ” du ‘e asked again. he didn’t try to lure you into revealing more inside information? ”
“No,” Jing Chen shook his head.
I know who he is, ” master du ‘e said. go to the Yamen and find the head official, Xu Qi’ an. I have something to ask him.
.............
Xu Qi ‘an came out of the brothel. He felt light all over and his bones were soft. He was enjoying the horse killing the chicken while watching the show and listening to music. This kind of life was really carefree.
Within two hours, the girls in the brothel changed batch by batch. They came in with smiles like flowers and left with trembling hands.
“It’s a pity that the girls in the brothel are mainly selling seafood, not professional masseuses, so their level is still a little lacking. In this era, there are brothels, education workshops, and brothels. It’s a pity that there are no foot baths and massage shops.”
At this time, the duty had already ended, so there was no need to go to the Yamen. Xu Qi ‘an hired a carriage by the roadside and returned to the Xu Manor.
“Eldest son, you’re finally back. There’s someone from the Yamen looking for you. He’s been waiting in the manor for a long time, and you’ve already drunk two pots of tea.” Old Zhang, the gatekeeper, saw that dalang had returned and quickly came to greet him.
The Yamen is looking for me ... Xu Qi ‘an pondered for a moment and guessed that it was someone from the Western Buddhist sect looking for him.
When he entered the living room, he saw a black-robed clerk sitting on a chair and drinking tea, his eyes constantly looking outside.
“Oh, Lord Xu, you’re finally back.”
After looking around countless times, he finally saw Xu Qi ‘an’s figure. The black-robed official was overjoyed and said, “”If you don’t come back, I’ll have to stay in your mansion after the curfew.”
“What’s the matter?” Xu Qi ‘an went straight to the point.
“Not long ago, an eminent Buddhist monk came to the Yamen to look for you, but he couldn’t find you, so he went to see Duke Wei. Duke Wei sent me to wait for you at the residence.” The black-robed official said.
He was just a monk, did Wei Yuan have to treat him so seriously? Who does he think he is? I’m the dignified Central Plains of the eastern land. When can I stand up?
I understand, ” Xu Qi ‘an said expressionlessly. I’ll go and meet him later.
The clerk heaved a sigh of relief and was about to take his leave when he suddenly thought of something. He smiled and said, ” Lord Wei heard that you were wandering around these days. He was very angry when he heard that you were not waiting for orders at the Yamen or patrolling the streets. He said that three months of your salary was gone.
........ This, dad, we can discuss this! Xu Qi ‘an’s face froze.
After sending off the black-robed official, Xu Qi ‘an remembered that his little mare had been left at the watchman’s Yamen, so he ordered the servant to bring Xu Erlang’s Mount.
There were three horses in the Xu residence, and they were the mounts of Xu Pingzhi and Xu dalang. There was a carriage for the women to use when they went out.
When Xu niannian heard that his brother had returned, he quickly came out of the study and said worriedly, “”Big brother, after you left today, those two ill-intentioned people came again.”
“What?” Xu Qi ‘an didn’t react for a moment.
“A green-robed swordsman and a monk who looks more like a butcher. They had come uninvited, saying that they were here to congratulate him. Father said that those who came were guests, so he invited them into the residence to have a drink.”
“I feel like they’re looking at me weirdly,” Xu niannian said with a frown.
Xu Qi ‘an remembered that when he saw Hengyuan in the afternoon, he seemed to have said that he had just come out of the Xu mansion after drinking.
Erlang, don’t mind these nobodies. You’re now Huiyuan, and your vision is higher. Xu Qi ‘an didn’t know how to comfort his little brother. He patted his shoulder and said, ”
“Lend me your Mount, I’ll return it to you tomorrow.”
