"What?"
Yu Jian was just a teenager, and it was only then that he deeply felt the darkness of society.
This profiteer not only defrauded their goods, but also sent them all to hell!
"Outlanders, you are very bold. It seems that there will be new faces in those mines soon!"
The patrol captain said solemnly.
But he was thinking in his heart: "It's just a Panshi Village. There are no powerful people and no powerful connections. Even if we kill him directly, no one will come forward..."
Compared with this profiteer, there is no doubt which side the balance will tilt.
"Sir, we are willing to give up the goods, please spare us!"
Li Hu's face was pale and he had no intention of resisting, so he could only beg for mercy.
"Hehe... this is the consequence of offending my lord!"
The profiteer laughed heartily on the side: "You... all go to the mine and repent! Guards, please take action!"
"Wait a minute!"
At this time, Zhang Kongfan, who was in charge of running errands, came over with a stinking face.
"Who are you… "
The patrol captain was startled, and then looked at Zhang Kongfan's luxurious clothes and a certain mark on them. His expression suddenly became solemn, and he bowed and saluted: "Sir!"
As an array master, even if he is only an apprentice, he is also the core ruling class of the entire Xingluo City, and no one should be underestimated.
"Well, these people..."
Zhang Kongfan glared at Li Hu as if he were a country bumpkin, gritted his teeth and said, "It's my friend... what happened?"
"Ah...it's nothing serious!"
The patrol captain's face was startled, and he immediately made a choice between the businessman and the formation master.
He turned to look at the profiteer, with a hint of righteousness on his face: "Boss Min, since you have accused this group of foreigners of passing off shoddy goods, please come with us to the Yamen, and your warehouse will be Seal it and check everything!”
"This this… "
The profiteer was immediately dumbfounded.
He relied only on his brother-in-law in the patrol team. Once the other party really wanted to "enforce the law impartially," he would definitely have no room for resistance.
What's more, when Boss Min glanced at Zhang Kongfan, his legs immediately began to weaken.
He never imagined that the group of bitter people in the background would actually be an array master!
How can this be
How could a high-ranking, god-like figure be associated with such a mud-legged person
Boss Min felt very regretful, but he also knew that no matter what he said at this time, it was useless, and his existence was reasonable.
After all, he was a shrewd man, so he immediately surrendered: "Young man plead guilty! I regret that I misunderstood what others said before and had misunderstandings with these brothers!"
He looked at Li Hu and Yu Jian, with a flattering smile on his face: "I will return those goods as they are, and I will give you ten stones of green salt and a hundred catties of fine iron as a return gift. Please accept it!"
Li Hu and Yu Jian looked confused.
In fact, up to now, they still don't quite understand what happened and why the situation was suddenly reversed.
The boss who was originally aggressive seemed to be like a piece of fish on the chopping board. He gave gifts for fear that others would not accept them.
"All of this changed only after this adult appeared!"
Li Hu looked at Zhang Kongfan and guessed how extraordinary this person was. He quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you sir for the rescue. Panshi Village will always be grateful!"
"You're welcome, I'm just being entrusted by others!"
Zhang Kongfan's face looked a little unnatural, and he turned sideways, refusing to accept the courtesy of these servants.
After all, if it hadn't been for the words of Master Kongming Divine Monk, he wouldn't have bothered to care about the life and death of these ants.
"In that case..."
Li Hu is also a discerning person. Even if he has a backer, he doesn't want to pursue him and make a deep hatred: "Let's just settle it like this!"
He saluted the patrol leader again: "Thank you, sir, for upholding justice!"
"Well, you're welcome!"
The captain smiled, obviously very satisfied with the other party's knowledge and knowledge: "I am Luo Fan, you can come to me when you come to Xingluo City in the future!"
"This is done, it's time for me to leave!"
Zhang Kongfan shook his head and walked away regardless of how they wanted to solve the problem next.
"Huh? That's..."
Yu Jian looked at the direction Zhang Kongfan left, rubbed his eyes, and felt as if he saw a familiar figure from behind, but with another blink, the other person disappeared again, just like an illusion.
"It should be that adult!"
Li Hu also came next to him and said for sure that this was the only expert who had any relationship with them: "I didn't expect that the other party could actually control the spiritual formation master..."
While talking, he felt quite regretful.
Although they had known that Fang Yuan was a big deal, now it seemed that his status was far higher than they imagined.
…
Just as their hearts were surging, Fang Yuan arrived at the temple of Monk Kong Ming.
"Sambhogakaya Temple?"
He looked at the magnificent plaque with a smile on his face: "It is said that Brahma has three kinds of Buddha bodies, namely the Sambhogakaya, the Dharmakaya, and the Responsive Body. Each incarnation has vast and unfathomable supernatural powers. I wonder what kind of cultivation master has achieved?"
"Don't you want lay people to know the true meaning of my Brahma Gate?"
Kongming Divine Monk was slightly startled, then shook his head and sighed: "The ancestor of our sect is indeed a Buddhist disciple of Daqian. It is said that he has cultivated the Sambhogakaya. However, later his descendants declined and were implicated, so they had to escape from Daqian. Most of the classics in the temple have long since disappeared. Where is the method of cultivating the incarnation? Only in the gaps in one volume of the Lotus Sutra is a record of the experience of a senior monk who studied the formation method. The poor monk, not talented, understood from it The principles of formations that are somewhat dreamy and empty are finally promoted to spiritual formation masters..."
He was in a daze, as if he was recalling the glorious past.
"I see!"
Fang Yuan was of course very interested in the formations mixed in the Buddhist scriptures.
But naturally we can't show it at this time, otherwise we will directly turn against each other and start a war.
"Do all the authors of magical secrets not like to write well and have to include them among other classics?"
He silently complained in his mind and stepped into the temple.
The temple looks magnificent from the outside, but the decoration inside is very quiet. In the garden, a tall banyan tree stands with luxuriant branches, pavilions like canopies, morning bells and evening drums, and solemn Buddha statues, with a touch of Zen.
“Quietness amidst the hustle and bustle is indeed a great place!”
When Fang Yuan saw this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"As long as the layman likes it!"
Monk Kongming seemed very pleased: "If the layman likes it, he can stay here as long as he wants!"
"Thank you!"
Although the courtyard was nice, Fang Yuan felt a strong sense of formation, whether it was the banyan trees, the Buddha statues, or the layout and arrangement of the entire temple.
"Perhaps I'm throwing myself into a trap? Isn't the Kongming Divine Monk feeling relieved?"
He thought a little funny in his heart, but under the guidance of Monk Kongming, he came to a wing and stayed there directly.
"Father, please have a meal!"
This Zen room is quite quiet. It is lit with fine sandalwood and everything used is extremely luxurious.
Fang Yuan meditated for a while, and there was a polite knock on the door. After getting the answer, a young novice with a green scalp came in: "The patriarch said, laymen are honored guests, not ordained Brahma disciples. If they don't keep their word, they will , if you want something to eat, just tell us and we will buy it!"
"Well, thank you!"
Fang Yuan took the food box and saw that it was filled with vegetarian food.
A stack of mushrooms and vegetables stir-fried by a chef, the magic is seen in decay, and the taste is extremely delicious. There are also a few vegetarian dishes, which are also unique and fragrant. The rice they eat is a kind of spiritual rice, called "Little Thunder Sound" is like a sword, with a flash of thunder in the middle. It can resist thunder after eating for a long time. When you eat it, your tongue feels like being electrocuted, which is deeply impressive.
After this vegetarian feast, even if there is no meat, it is still as good as the one in the palace.
"If nothing happens, it would be nice to live here for a few years..."
After eating and drinking, he sent the young novice monk away. Fang Yuan thought happily: "It would be better if there were no ghosts in this city!"
"Haha... Layman Fang Yuan!"
Before Fang Yuan could take a rest, Kongming Divine Monk came to greet him personally: "The layman is so proud. When the Lord of the City heard that a distinguished guest was coming, he even put off the important things in the evening and came to see the layman himself..."
"It's not that I have enough dignity, but that the city lord cares about the common people. He heard about the tragedy in Hongye Village, so he was so anxious, right?"
Fang Yuan asked back with a half-smile, which immediately made the Kongming Divine Monk stunned and could only smile bitterly and remain silent.
…
Sambhogany Temple is very large, with a vast garden behind it. In the center of the garden is an octagonal pavilion.
At this time, there was one more person in the pavilion, waiting quietly.
He has star-shaped eyebrows and sword-like eyes, and his eyebrows are quite heroic. Although he looks like a middle-aged man, his skin is like jade, his eyes are like lacquer, and he wears a high crown on his head. He does not look old at all, but looks heroic.
"Is this little friend Fang Yuan?"
At this time, he raised his head and looked at Fang Yuan, who was walking slowly, with a hint of smile and curiosity in his eyes.
"Fang Yuan, a man from the mountains, has met the Lord of Xingluo City!"
Fang Yuan gave a brief salute and then walked into the small pavilion unceremoniously.
"My little friend has come from afar. As a landlord, I didn't come far to welcome you. Please forgive me!"
The voice of the Lord of Xingluo City has a hint of magnetism and is very masculine, and he treats others like a spring breeze.
But for some reason, Fang Yuan's mouth twitched as he looked at the other party's almost flawless face that fully represented masculine charm, but he had the urge to step forward and punch him.
At this time, he held back: "To be honest, I want to go to Daqian, but I am a little lost. I want to ask the Lord of the City for a map..."
"oh?"
The Lord of Xingluo City raised his eyebrows, obviously very surprised, and nodded immediately: "It's just a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning. I will order someone to send the map later..."
He looked at Fang Yuan with doubt in his eyes: "Could it be that... my little friend really comes from the south of the Ice Valley?"
That ghost gate was like a natural chasm, blocking most people's footsteps. The fact that Fang Yuan appeared here at this moment was of great significance.
