Compensate for the courtyard wall? How much will it cost to pay for sweeping the walls of the temple?
The three junior brothers looked at the leaky courtyard wall and were all dumbfounded. The same thought flashed through their minds, and they were all too frightened to say a word.
Facing severe torture in the Zhenhai Division, the three of them could still shout twice. When it came to the issue of money, they immediately became short of breath and their cowering expressions were obvious.
The underworld monk waited for a while but received no reply, and asked strangely: "Is it possible that you feel that it has nothing to do with you?"
Yu Qing looked left and right and saw that the two senior brothers were looking away as if they didn't hear anything. At this time, it seemed that he could only be the one in charge. He immediately tried to ask cautiously: "Master thinks he deserves compensation." How much?"
The underworld monk was stunned for a moment, then said: "What do I need your money for?"
The three brothers were also stunned, and Yu Qing tried to ask again: "What does the master mean?"
The monk asked in return: "Don't you think it should be repaired first before leaving?"
Nanzhu, who was wearing a piece of cloth around his waist, answered, "Is this it?"
Dark Monk: "Then what else do you want?"
Nanzhu waved his hands repeatedly, "It's good. This is good. It should be done. Let's fix it!" He patted his bare chest to reassure himself.
Yu Qing secretly poked his lower back with his fingers, but it was no use, but he still agreed without hesitation.
After confirming the plan to repair the courtyard wall, the underworld monk turned around and returned to the main hall. Then Changkong and Baiyun directed the three of them to work and pick up skulls under the cliff. Skulls piled up like rocks.
Nanzhu excused himself as he had no clothes to wear and asked if he could give him a monk's robe to cover his shame. Changkong and Baiyun were not stingy, and they really felt that it was indecent for him to work naked in the underworld temple, so they gave him a monk's robe. A monk's robe.
After receiving the clothes, Nanzhu looked very happy and cherished, and kept tugging at them to admire them.
When he arrived at the foot of the cliff to move the skull, he saw that Lao Qi and Lao Fifteen were looking at him unkindly. Knowing that they had some objections to his overly positive attitude towards his generous offer, they immediately made a comforting gesture and looked at the people standing on the top of the cliff. Changkong and Baiyun probably wouldn't hear it, so they whispered in a low voice: "Can you not agree? It's okay if we don't agree. Besides, this is a good job. We built the walls of the Underworld Temple. There are a few people who have this opportunity, and it would be a matter of honor to tell them."
At this point, Yu Qing could only hold back a few words, "You are so mean!"
After moving the skulls, Yu Qing and Mu Aotie stopped running, and began to suspect that Lao Qi liked to work. The two worked hard, leaving Lao Qi to run around alone. Do more.
However, Nanzhu still enjoyed it and was very attentive to Changkong and Baiyun, which made Yu Qing and Mu Aotie a little doubtful whether Lao Qi wanted to betray his master and change his sect.
When no one was paying attention, even Mu Aotie couldn't help but say, "No wonder we were looking for the prefect's daughter."
"Well, nature is hard to change." Yu Qing also replied, paying attention to the big head on his shoulders from time to time, and found that it was still motionless, and he didn't know when he would come back to life.
…
On the rooftop of Zhenhai Division, Zhu Xuan was entertaining distinguished guests. Qi Duolai, who had arrived quickly, saw this and stood aside without any help.
The distinguished guests came for no other reason than the murder of Wang Xuetang. Although the case has been concluded, there are still many guests from Langhuanju who are being detained by the Zhenhai Division. The reason is to thoroughly investigate whether the murderer has any accomplices. .
Involving the death of Di Mu's relatives, even if many detainees had connections at first, most of those connections did not dare to help without permission and had to wait and see.
Now that I know that the case has been concluded, various connections have been brought up one after another. I hope Zhenhai Division can give him face and let him go.
Qi Duolai, who was listening in the audience, smiled from time to time. In fact, he felt funny in his heart. This time, the commander followed the trend and did it calmly. Xi Qingyue was very happy to arrest people without saying hello. Now he probably knows the color. , the signboard of Langhuanju was really smashed to the ground, and the owner of the fifth cave probably didn’t look good on his face either.
After the matter was settled, the distinguished guest stopped disturbing him and stood up to leave, "Brother Zhu, please take care of this matter."
Zhu Xuan, who got up to see off the guests, said: "Brother Chen came here to say hello in person. Zhu will give you this face no matter what. I will ask someone to deal with your people first when I get back. I will try to come to a conclusion for him today. As long as there is no big problem, just a little bit I'll take care of the minor issues, and I'll let him close the case and go out today."
So both the host and the guest were very happy, and the guest left happily.
After escorting the guests away, Qi Duolai reported: "Commander, according to observation, the three people who were seriously injured and entered the Ming Monk are now working in the Ming Monastery."
Zhu Xuan, who was walking with his hands behind his back, was stunned, "Working? What kind of work are you doing?"
Qi Duolai: "I guess they are renovating the walls of the Hades Temple."
Zhu Xuan was surprised: "Can you still work after being injured like that?"
Qi Duolai: "I was also puzzled. I even went to the nearby area to have a look in person. It seems that the injuries of the three people have healed."
Zhu Xuan stopped in surprise and faced, "If the injury is like that, it will be cured in a day or two? How can Ming Temple's medical skills be so superb?"
Qi Duolai: "The treatment must have come from the Underworld Temple. The specific situation remains to be known."
Zhu Xuan stroked his beard and pondered, "Ordinary people can't even enter the Underworld Temple, but those three guys can actually tinker with the wall in the Underworld Temple. It seems that the scout is really worthy of Xiaotang's respect, otherwise how could he be so big? face."
Qi Duolai nodded...
Wherever they needed to be repaired or rebuilt, Changkong and Baiyun were not polite and gave them guidance on areas that should have been renovated long ago. So the three brothers renovated almost one-third of the entire temple. Again.
This is not all physical work. It’s not just about stacking skulls on top of each other. It has to be practical and neat. It requires a little bit of ingenuity one by one. So this part of the work was done by three people. It was not completed until early the next morning.
After the work was done, the three of them packed up their things and went to the main hall to say goodbye to the underworld monk.
The old monks in white robes sitting on the left and right sides of the hall made the three brothers look at him with suspicion.
After saying goodbye, the monk who was sitting cross-legged and meditating suddenly stared at the big head on Yu Qing's shoulder and asked, "Does the fire cricket eat bones as food?"
Yu Qing was slightly startled, but still replied: "He can chew bones."
The Dark Monk immediately advised, "In this case, you must remember not to let them eat fresh human bones. Once they eat the marrow and know the taste, they may regard human life as a piece of grass. If you commit the sin of killing, you will fall into the wrong path, which is not tolerated in the world, and you may not be able to save it." "
Yu Qing looked solemn, clasped his hands and bowed in return, "Junior, please remember the teachings of our seniors."
Nanzhu added, "Come and visit me regularly when I have time."
Yu Qing and Mu Ao knew exactly what he was thinking and almost couldn't help but roll their eyes.
The underworld monk smiled lightly, "No need, you are not welcome here, go ahead."
The words were straightforward, a bit like a monk's lie, which immediately made Nanzhu look embarrassed when his attempt was shattered.
Changkong immediately extended his hand to see the guest off, but Yu Qing still raised his hand to stop, please wait a moment, and asked the doubt he had always had in his heart, "Why did Master need to rescue us in time?"
Underworld Monk: "Of course I have someone to ask for my help."
Yu Qingli asked: "Who?"
The underworld monk smiled: "Guess for yourself."
The other party didn't tell the answer, and the three brothers didn't dare to force it, so they could only say goodbye.
After exiting the gate of Ming Temple, there was a slam of the door behind them. The three of them looked back and left in a swaggering manner. Nanzhu, who still had doubts in his mind, couldn't help but mutter, "Who can ask Ming Temple to save us?"
Yu Qing sighed, "Who else could it be? The only connection is with Xuan Guogong Ying Xiaotang. He must be thinking about Ajiezhang's old love."
Nanzhu nodded, "That's right. Who did I take you to be? I don't know where that person is now. There has been no news at all in these years, and I have never sent a message to the temple to inform him of his whereabouts." As he spoke, a pair of hands returned. He stroked his monk's robe happily and admired it.
Yu Qing said contemptuously: "I'm afraid that people in the Underworld Temple will urinate, so you have to offer them as treasures, right?"
Mu Aotie couldn't stand it and snorted.
Nanzhu was stunned for a moment, but then he reacted and sneered: "I'm not telling you, you two are still a bit young in terms of experience in the world. What is this if it's not a treasure? If you can't exchange it for a thousand pieces of gold, you have to keep it as a treasure and wear it out at the critical moment. , it is said that it is a monk's robe given by the Hades Temple. The fist hit by it must be three points soft, and the sword struck by it must be three points deflection.
To put it bluntly, if the robes of the monks of the Hades Temple were hung out, they would probably be sold for a lot of money due to their scarcity. This is a lot of money. I worked hard to get it, but you are so blind that you don't know the goods. Two brothers, let’s see what happens in the future! "
After finishing speaking, he happily dusted off the monk's robe.
"..."
Yu and Mu were both stunned, and turned back to look at the closed door of the Sauchen Temple.
After walking by, Nanzhu found that there was no one around him. He looked back and was stunned, "Come on, why are you so dazed?"
Yu Qing turned around and said to him, "You know these clothes are useful, why didn't you tell us then that it wouldn't be a good idea to get two more?"
Nanzhu was happy, "You guys are stupid. I had no clothes on at the time so I had an excuse. You guys are still talking when you have clothes on. If someone finds out, wouldn't it mean that even I won't be able to do it? Let's go. Don't be reluctant to leave. You are now They won’t give it to you when you go back, and they may not even let you in. Don’t remind them to take this thing back from me.”
Thinking about it, Yu Qing shook his head and turned around, "Forget it, three Taoist priests walking around in monk's robes together really doesn't look good. I'm afraid the Patriarch will be unhappy if he sees it."
There is still an unspoken thought in my mind. I am a prostitute, and I have to wear the monk's robe of the Underworld Temple to protect myself when traveling in the world. I have a dull face and am easily laughed at.
The three of them continued walking towards the prosperous sea market. Mu Aotie asked, "Where are we going? Back to Hu Youli's house?"
Yu Qing: "Go to Qingya first."
Nanzhu: "Why are you looking for him?"
"Although the Zhenhai Division has closed the case regarding Wang Xuetang's death, the monk can't tell how it was closed. Whether the matter has been dealt with completely, and whether the Earth Mother will cause trouble for us, we have to find out the situation before we can feel at ease. , can decide what to do next, Qingya is well-informed, he should know it, and he will know it as soon as he asks."
The figures of the three people muttering all the way were getting further and further away from the Hades Temple. They were separated by a strait, like two worlds.
…
In the Jinghong Hall, above the quiet pavilion, Qingya was sitting on a recliner with a fixed and tied leg.
He was still lying leisurely, peeling peanuts in his hands to eat. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and saw Gu Qingzhao coming up. Being distracted, he immediately covered half of his cheeks and let out a muffled groan.
Gu Qingzhao knew what was going on as soon as he saw it. Peanut accidentally bit into the wound where the missing tooth was. He immediately laughed and scolded: "It's been so many times and I've lost all my teeth. I told you not to eat it, but I can't help it." , deserve it!”
Qingya covered his cheek and sighed, "Teeth will never grow back. These teeth are completely gone... Xi Qingyue, if you have the ability, don't fall into my hands for the rest of your life."
At this moment, Pang Chengqiu quickly went upstairs again. After saluting the two of them, he reported: "Master Qing, the beauty scout is here with two companions. He said he wants to pay you a visit."
Qingya was startled when he heard this. He didn't know what he thought of, and his expression changed. He rubbed the armrest and sat up. If his legs hadn't been weak, he would have been able to stand up directly.
With a sigh, he spat out the bloody peanuts in his mouth, and said in a deep voice with a dark face: "Gou Tanhua, here we go again! Go and tell him, just say I'm not here. Remember, whenever he takes the initiative to come looking for you in the future, Me, everyone said I wasn’t here!”
