Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 67 Mysterious Old Monk
It is said that they live next to each other, but they are actually separated by an alleyway.That house is bigger, with four rooms.Qiu Bujuan is not alone, with her maid Xiaocui by her side.They choose to live here, which obviously means "close to the water".

Chen Jin had a problem in his heart, Qiu Bujuan said he would come to talk and chat when he was free, but what should he say?
The relationship between the two is quite awkward.

The temperament of the previous body was originally square and rigid, but after being teased by Qiu Bujue many times, there were unreasonable thoughts in his heart, which was very contradictory.

what about now?

Chen Jin only thought it was a trouble, Grandpa Laoqiu said it.After all, hiding here and living here is originally intended to be quiet and practice with peace of mind, but now how can you practice in this state?During the daytime, he basically spent time in the police department, and not long after Muwan came back, Qiu came to the door without marrying.

Gu Leyou is a sensible person. Whenever he sees this "auntie" appear, he automatically finds an excuse to leave and never stays in the house.

So there were only two left, Chen Jin and Qiu Bumarried, which seemed like a "lonely man and a widow".Fortunately, Qiu Buwei made men's clothing, at least in terms of senses, it can reduce a bit of ambiguity.

Speaking of the men's clothes, Chen Jin observed carefully, but he didn't find any clues. Apart from his handsome appearance, Qiu Bujuan was obviously a man.If he hadn't confirmed his identity in advance, Chen Jin would have identified Qiu Bujuan as a man, just like Gu Leyou.

It is obviously unusual to pretend to be in this way, and Chen Jin even wonders if Qiu Bujuan has practiced some kind of strange art, so that the gender can be switched freely.If so, it would be too powerful, the legendary hermaphrodite?
"Xiao Lang, have you seen enough? Your eyes are burning like a thief!"

Qiu Bujuan and Gu Panjian have their own style, maybe not enough, but there are thousands of kinds.

Chen Jin couldn't help asking: "Little aunt, how did you do it? It's so big...how can you hide it?"

Qiu Bujuan raised her eyes: "You want to know where it is hidden, why don't you come and look for it?"

Chen Jin was about to reply, "I've been a man for 20 years, and I've never seen such a request before." Then he tried his best to search and test... But he held back and changed the subject: "Little aunt, you're coming to the city. Hold on, why exactly?"

Qiu Bujuan replied simply: "Cultivate your temperament."

Chen Jin was taken aback for a moment, but he believed it a little bit.Because for a long time, grandpa and uncle invited Mr. Xixi to teach Qiu not to marry poetry, calligraphy and painting, etc., also said to "edify temperament", probably to train her to be like a lady.

However, the facts have proved that this is the nature, no matter how cultivated, it is difficult to change.

So he questioned: "You mean you can cultivate your temperament by talking with me?"

Qiu Bujuan replied: "Maybe you can, maybe you can't, just give it a try, what, you don't want to?"

"It's not a question of willingness or not. I should figure out why, how to communicate, and how to cultivate. What effect will it have if I shoot at no target?"

"You ask me, who do I ask?"

Qiu Bujuan said very bachelorly.

Chen Jin was quite speechless. Don't you have a charter for your own affairs?The eyes rolled: "Little aunt, you have been in Lingnan for almost five years, when are you going to go home?"

Qiu Bujuan blinked her eyes: "Go home? Where do you go?"

Chen Jin said: "I remember that you came to visit relatives."

Not only Qiu Bumarried, but also my grandfather's family migrated to Lingnan more than ten years ago.Chen Jin was young at the time and didn't know the specific situation, and his uncle and others hadn't told him about it. This little aunt might know something.

Qiu Bujuan suddenly sneered: "You mean, the old Qiuzhuang is not my home anymore? Are you going to drive me out?"

Chen Jin secretly called "Oops", and hurriedly said: "I have absolutely no intention of doing so. I am also fostered here, so what right do I have to drive you away?"

Qiu Buzhuan looked at him coldly: "In this way, you didn't take care of your grandfather's family at all, it's unreasonable."

Chen Jin: "..."

But the description is getting darker and darker. Subconsciously, he does have a certain sense of alienation, after all, he belongs to an "outsider".But after getting in touch, the sense of alienation has gradually become harmonious.

Watching Qiu Bujuan leave in anger, she could only sigh: I really said something wrong.Originally, I wanted to inquire about the situation of "Qiu's" from her mouth, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Gu Leyou came back with supper, a jug of wine, and several catties of meat in his hand. He laid it out on the table in the courtyard, and then asked Chen Jin to eat: "Which little aunt of yours has left?"

"gone."

"Scholar, it's really strange that you call her "aunt" and "aunt". It feels like they fit together. What's the reason?"

Chen Jin spread his hands: "How do I know, maybe it's the custom of my grandfather's family... How can we save money if we eat like this every day?"

Gu Leyou said indifferently: "If you have wine today and you are drunk today, why bother so much? Could it be that you go to bed hungry? Money, earning but not spending, is a miser. Make money wisely, and spend money wisely. right way."

"It's all at your expense."

Chen Jin works as a civil servant in the Patrol Department, and his monthly salary is not much. If ordinary people don't have to drag their families with them, it is indeed enough. However, people who practice martial arts are good at eating and drinking, and they will be stretched. It is difficult. Can afford supper.

In the past few days, Gu Leyou paid for the supper every night.

Gu Leyou raised his brows: "Scholar, what do you mean by saying that? Our friendship is not only adversity, but also life-threatening, so there is no need to worry about it? Are you trying to force me to move?" go out?"

Chen Jin: "..."

Tonight, I really said the wrong thing again and again, so I hurriedly said: "My fault, I should be punished with three cups."

Gu Leyou said with a smile: "This is called happiness! Scholar, let me tell you, although you and I are temporarily downcast and depressed, but talents like us will one day stand out, be proud of the world, and make a big splash." Come to the Hall of Fame!"

Chen Jin was overwhelmed with pride by what he said, raised his wine glass, and chanted: "There will be times when the wind and the waves cleave, hang the clouds and sail straight to the sea, come, cheers!"

"It's a good sentence, 'There will be times when the wind and the waves break, and hang the clouds and sails to help the sea', Xiao Lang, if you can recite this sentence, you finally have a bit of manliness."

Amidst the voice, Qiu Bujuan stepped in.

Chen Jin asked, "Didn't you go back?"

Qiu Buzhuan stared: "I'm hungry, the scent is coming, can't I?"

"Okay, it must be done!"

Chen Jin hurriedly said, and hurriedly moved a chair for her.

Gu Leyou said: "I don't have enough wine and meat, I'll go buy some more, I won't go home if I don't get drunk tonight."

"Little Gu, go on."

Qiu Bujuan raised his hand and tossed it, and a piece of silver flew out.

Gu Leyou caught it and weighed it. It weighed five taels. It could buy a lot of wine and meat. He immediately smiled, "Thank you, little aunt."

Qiu Buzhu said coldly: "I am not related to you, so you can't call me like that, just call me 'Miss Qiu'."

"Yes Yes."

Gu Leyou didn't care about those things, so he took the money and hurried to go.

Qiu Buzhuan took a new wine glass, filled it with wine, raised it, and said with a smile on his face: "Xiao Lang, come, let's have a drink."

She was sitting close to her, and there was a faint fragrance. For a moment, Chen Jin couldn't tell whether it was the smell of wine or the smell of body, so he raised his glass and said, "It's done!"

……

In Ciping Temple, under the ever-burning lamp, the old monk fell down on the ground and asked, "Benefactor Su, what do you mean by Buddha?"

Su Xiancheng replied with a wry smile: "I'm not a monk, how do I know what a Buddha is?"

"I'm a monk and I've recited scriptures for decades, but I don't know what Buddha is."

The light illuminated the old monk's thin face, like a piece of crumpled pine bark, which seemed to be cracked and mottled, which made people feel panicky.

Su Xiancheng puffed up his eyes, feeling that the other party was really baffled, came to ask such a question, and said: "You should ask the abbot and the supervisor, they are eminent monks who have attained the Tao and are proficient in Buddhism."

"Eminent monk? Good at Buddhism?"

The old monk burst out laughing suddenly, the laughter was a bit crazy.

Su Xiancheng was stunned, wondering if the old sorcerer was bewildered?That's right, judging by the appearance of his clothes, he is a monk at the bottom of the temple, and his life must not be satisfactory.Thinking back to myself back then, it was because I failed the exams repeatedly, bumped into walls everywhere, had no money to study, and then became dazed and confused.

If you are in a daze, you can do anything, but you have to be careful, and hurriedly said:
"Old Master, don't bother me anymore. I don't understand Buddhism, and I don't know how to become a monk."

The old monk's demeanor changed quickly, and he calmed down: "I just like that you don't understand Buddhism, but I don't understand it either. The night is long and I don't want to sleep, so I want to find someone to sit in meditation and discuss Buddhism."

Su Xiancheng was annoyed: "Is it easy to talk about Buddha? Besides, I have to copy the scriptures, how can I have time to chat with you? Why don't you go to the people in the monastery?"

"Hehe, those people are all fake monks. They recite scriptures and recite Buddha's name. It's all business. They don't have any compassion in their hearts."

"Whether it's true or not, it's none of my business. Old Master, I beg you, I have to do things to make money and support my family. You are always clinging to me, but if you become obsessed, you will violate the precept of anger."

The old monk's eyes lit up, and he clasped his palms together: "Benefactor Su is right, one word awakens the dreamer, and the old monk will go."

After finally sending him away, Su Xiancheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when he was copying, he always seemed restless and couldn't concentrate, so that he copied several words wrong, and his busy work was wasted.

No, it can't be.

Su Xiancheng put down his pen angrily, thinking of a solution.

The next day, he went directly to his acquaintance novice monk: "At night, the old mage who is in charge of adding lamp oil in your temple always comes to talk to me. It is difficult for me to concentrate on copying scriptures. Can you persuade me?"

The novice looked at him and asked, "The old mage who added lamp oil? Su Tongsheng, who are you talking about?"

"He's just a very old mage, his eyebrows and beard are gone, he's skinny..."

Su Xiancheng described it with gestures.

The novice became impatient when he heard this: "Could it be that you are having a dream? How can there be such an old mage in the temple? Besides, the lamp oil in the Daxiong Hall is filled up at sunset, and there is no need for someone to refill it at night."

"what?"

Hearing this, Su Xiancheng felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, his whole body felt chilly, and his whole body felt chilly.

If there is no such person in the temple, who is that old monk?

　About a week after it was put on the shelves, the haute couture has doubled. It seems that there is still some hope, work hard!Again, this book only owes a chance to be exposed!
