The little monk returns to the vulgar

Chapter 6 Lanruo Temple Arrives

Daoran thinks about returning to vulgarity every day, but with the mountain of Fahai pressing him down, he can only say that he doesn't mean it: "I have never studied the Four Books and Five Classics, and I don't know how to be an official."

Nie Zhengyan said a little excitedly: "Master is merciful, it's always better than those corrupt officials."

Daoran continued to shake his head and said, "Amitabha, in my opinion, being a corrupt official is treacherous, and being a clean official is more treacherous than corrupt officials."

Nie Zhengyan was about to refute, but frowned.

Corrupt officials are evil, and honest officials are more evil than corrupt officials?
These words sounded unreasonable, but after Nie Zhengyan thought about them carefully, he found them extremely incisive.

He was an upright official and devoted himself to serving the people, but in the end he was framed by treacherous officials, not to mention demoted from the capital, and even his life was in danger.

If he hadn't met Daoran, his whole family would have died.

Didn't I end up like this because I wasn't wicked enough?

When Nie Zhengyan looked at Daoran again, he already had an expression of admiration on his face.

This master Daoran is not very old, but he is truly wise and proficient, as if he has a pair of eyes that can see through the essence of things.

Nie Zhengyan would not believe such a person if he said he would not be an official.

Although Daoran expressed that he did not want to be an official, Nie Zhengyan did not give up.

Because he knew how vengeful the national teacher was, and if he ruined his good deed, the subsequent revenge would never stop.

Daoran can't avoid it, he can only be the enemy of the national teacher, and the two are natural allies.

His thoughts drifted away, and Nie Zhengyan seemed a little absent-minded in the next chat.

Daoran noticed it, because no matter how he changed the subject, he couldn't get out of attributes.

When you are bragging and others are not paying attention, the monk talent will not activate.

Daoran clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, Mr. Nie, your mind is disturbed."

Nie Zhengyan was immediately ashamed, it was really impolite.

At this time, the guard's voice came from outside the car: "My lord, it's getting dark, there is a temple not far ahead, how about staying overnight?"

It came just in time, and it would be less embarrassing to change the subject.

Nie Zhengyan quickly said: "Everyone has been exhausted for many days, and it's time to take a good rest. Send someone to ask if it's convenient to stay overnight."

After hearing this, Daoran opened the curtain of the car, and asked the guard quite solemnly, "What's the name of that temple?"

The guard quickly and respectfully replied, "Lanruo Temple."

Daoran quickly said: "Amitabha."

Those who should come will always come. After meeting Nie Xiaoqian, Lanruo Temple is not far away.

There are many versions of A Chinese Ghost Story, and the stories of different versions are very different, and Dao Ran is not sure what the plot of the world he is in is.

Xiaoqian is not dead yet, what does Lanruo Temple look like today?
Soon, Daoran saw the appearance of Lanruo Temple.It is not dilapidated and dilapidated in the impression, but magnificent and fragrant, and even the Zhike monk who came out to welcome the guests looked greasy.

The originally reserved monk of Lanruo Temple became enthusiastic when he heard that Nie Zhengyan was the magistrate of Hangzhou, and welcomed Nie Zhengyan's family in without saying that it was inconvenient for the female relatives.

Probably because his colleagues were enemies, the people of Lanruo Temple didn't like Daoran very much, and they bullied him because he was young, and arranged him to rest in a dark corner of the temple.

Nie Zhengyan felt that something was wrong and wanted to change Daoran's room, but Daoran persuaded him.

"Master Nie, we are guests, there is no reason to turn our back on the guests and make things difficult for the master."

Nie Zhengyan thought it was reasonable, but Daoran's words always pointed to the essence.

Just like that, Daoran was placed in a remote small room, far away from Nie Zhengyan's family.

At the time of parting, Daoran heard the abbot of Lanruo Temple, Monk Shi Yan, talk to Nie Zhengyan about blessings, such as how much merit a piece of dragon head incense can exchange for, and how the enlightened Buddhist beads have the effect of exorcising evil spirits and protecting the body.

No wonder this place is so popular, Shi Yan's eloquence is definitely at the level of gold medal sales.

Daoran didn't mind, and he was content to squeeze into the small room with Nie Zhengyan's guards.

On Nie Zhengyan's side, he had some respect for Shi Yan at first, but after listening to him for a long time, he was still selling him blessing beads and hand-copied Buddhist scriptures, and he began to get a little impatient.

In fact, this abbot Shi Yan still has something, and he can closely follow the content of the Buddhist scriptures when he sells it. He is not completely talking about it.

However, he didn't know that Nie Zhengyan had been with Daoran day and night in the past few days, and his eyes had become much higher unconsciously.

There is no harm without comparison. Before Nie Zhengyan met Daoran, he might think that Shi Yan's words were humorous, and occasionally a few Buddhist principles could also inspire thinking.

But Shi Yan's far-fetched Buddhist stories in order to sell are far from Dao Ran's true insights.

Not to mention that the abbot looks fat and oily, how can he compare with Daoran's dignified appearance?

With a prejudice in mind, Nie Zhengyan would naturally not be fooled by Shi Yan's sweet words. After chatting for more than half an hour, Nie Zhengyan just added some sesame oil money for a symbolic excuse and went back to his room under the pretext of taking a break.

On the surface, Shi Yan still smiled at Maitreya, but when Nie Zhengyan left, his expression suddenly darkened.

A monk with the same greasy hair and noodles came over and said, "Abbot, this Nie is not a Taoist, do you want to..."

As he spoke, the monk cut his throat.

Shi Yan shook his head and said, "Don't be impulsive, Shi Neng. After all, this Nie Zhengyan is an official of the imperial court. If he really recruits people from the imperial court, this Lanruo Temple will not be able to stay any longer."

"Abbot, this is the magistrate, such a big fat sheep, can we just let it go?" Monk Shi Neng said excitedly.

"Of course we can't let it go, but don't make a fuss. Didn't he bring his female relatives and let the fox fairy go out." Shi Yan said.

Shi Neng listened and showed an obscene smile.

The so-called fox fairy is actually using hallucinogenic drugs to make people think that the fox fairy is really a manifestation, defrauding those foolish men and women who are begging for children and ignorant young ladies.

First pretending to be a fox fairy to deceive the woman's innocence, and then pretending to help exorcise evil spirits to cheat money. This trick can be said to be a double gain.

Even if someone finds something wrong, most of the time they don't dare to speak up. Occasionally, when the fish dies and the net is broken, the monks in the temple will come in handy.

The monks of Lanruo Temple have harmed many people and made a lot of money by relying on this trick.

This time, the old trick happened to be repeated. With the beauty of Nie Zhengyan's wife and daughter, it is estimated that there will be a round of competition to decide who will pretend to be the fox fairy.

Monk Shi Neng got the abbot's order and was about to prepare immediately, but he heard the abbot Shi Yan say: "Wait, before you start, turn over the little monk's medicine first. When you're done playing, throw him on the bed. Let him take the place of the dead ghost."

"Abbot, isn't it caused by the fox fairy?" Shi Neng asked strangely.

"You just say that the fox fairy is attached to the little monk. This little monk is not simple, and Nie Zhengyan trusts him very much. If we don't drag him into the water, he might see the flaws. We can only make him speechless. That's why Nie Zhengyan is easy to be manipulated by us." Abbot Shi Yan explained.

"Wonderful! The abbot really has a clever plan!" Shi Neng flattered him quickly.

"Don't delay, they are only staying for one night, time is very tight." Shi Yan urged.

Shi Neng quickly said: "Abbot, don't worry, this time I'll go out in person, a mother and a daughter."

Shi Neng is very confident, because he has done this many times and never failed.

But he never expected that Daoran was not in the room.

At night, where did this little monk go?
