Some people said that the world was like this: a good horse with a good saddle, a good boat with a good sail, a tortoise with mung beans, and a retard with cerebral palsy.
Li Muyang thought, in Song Tao's eyes, was he a tortoise or a retard?
He asked him whether he liked Taohong or Liulu, but he was subconsciously warning him to understand his own identity. You are just a cart driver, your future partner can only be a servant girl like Taohong or Liulu … Of course, this is only if you are very diligent and can satisfy Miss Xiaoxin, then she will betroth her servant girl to you.
As for a woman like Cui Xiaoxin, you don't even need to think about it.
Li Muyang shook his head again and again and said with a panicked face, "No, I don't like them."
"Why? Do you think they are not beautiful enough and not worthy of you? "Song Tao's smile was playful, looking at Li Muyang's appearance was also interesting.
"No, no. They are all beautiful. And worthy of me. " Li Muyang showed a naive look. Xiaoxin stammered, "I heard … heard …"
"Heard what?"
"I heard that the servant girls around Miss will marry with Miss in the future. Whoever Miss marries, the servant girls will also … also have to marry that person. " Li Muyang shook his head desperately, looking like he was not thinking too much and this kind of thing would never happen. "If you give me the servant girls, then what about Miss?"
"You …" Song Tao looked at Li Muyang's Xiaoxin face and wanted to punch him.
Yes, there was such a custom in Tiandu. The personal servant girls around Miss would generally marry into the husband's family with Miss. If Miss and Langjun were satisfied, those servant girls would also become the husband's servant girls. They would give birth to children for their husband and eliminate the idea of taking concubines.
Of course, such servant girls generally did not have any status.
There were also some kind-hearted Miss or if their husband was not willing to marry more, they would find a loyal and good man to marry off their personal servant girls. This included Li Muyang's mother, Luo Chi.
In other words, if you bought a pearl, you might get a few pairs of fish eyes for free … Who would buy a pair of fish eyes and ask for a luminous pearl?
From Song Tao's point of view, Li Muyang's question about what he would do if he married a maidservant was the same as buying a fish's eye and coveting a pearl.
However, it was hard for him to say it out loud. Moreover, this brat had a look of fear and trepidation as he refused. It seemed that he was really worried that someone else would let him marry the Young Lady … How could such a person not be beaten to death and still live until now?
"I really don't deserve Miss Xiaoxin," Li Muyang said.
Song Tao stared blankly for a moment before bursting into laughter.
He patted Li Muyang's shoulder and smilingly said, "Interesting. How interesting. I didn't expect to meet such a wonderful person on this trip to White Cloud Mountain … Don't worry, someone will marry Miss Xiaoxin. However, there would be no barter trade. You just need to do your part. "
"Yes. I will work hard. "Li Muyang said aloud.
While chatting and laughing, everyone had already arrived at Thousand Buddha Temple.
Because someone went up the mountain in advance to inform them, a deacon of Thousand Buddha Temple called Fa Zheng had already led several little monks to greet them at the door.
Thousand Buddha Temple was located in the boundary of Tiandu. Although they could ignore the outside world and only worship Maitreya Buddha, but the descendants of the Song family and Cui family of Tiandu had come to worship Buddha, they should give them enough respect and attention.
Besides, with such a big customer coming to pray and make a wish, they must have donated a lot of money, right?
Fa Zheng saluted Song Tao and Cui Xiaoxin, and after learning that Li Shinian was a close friend of Cui Xiaoxin, he saluted Li Shinian.
Fa Zheng led Cui Xiaoxin, Li Shinian and Song Tao to pray for blessings, and let a few little monks lead Li Muyang and the group of guards to the backyard to rest. Because Song Tao had just told Fa Zheng that they were going to eat vegetarian in Thousand Buddha Temple and copy scriptures, so they naturally could not go down the mountain today.
Li Muyang's status was low, and naturally was not qualified to follow them to pray for blessings.
Li Shinian came over, looked at Li Muyang and said, "You put my luggage in the room. Remember to take care of my Snowball. "
Then he lowered his voice and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "I put Snowball in the cage. You take it out to get some air. If there's anything you need me for, just take Snowball and say it's not feeling well … "
"… …"
Li Shinian hurriedly said a few words, then followed Cui Xiaoxin and Song Tao to the front yard to pray for blessings.
Cui Meng came over, poked Li Muyang's arm with his elbow, and said with a sneaky smile, "Brother, this time you're rich, right? When we go back, you have to treat me to a drink. "
Li Muyang nodded and said, "Okay."
"You're a good friend." Cui Meng did not expect Li Muyang to be so loyal, this really fulfilled the saying 'don't forget each other when you get rich'. So, he excitedly put his arm around Li Muyang's shoulder and said, "Let's go, brother, let's have a good chat. I tell you, our family's Miss is the best master. And she keeps her words, she said if you have any difficulties you can find her, then she will definitely help you … … How about you let her betroth Little Peach to you? You see how thin Little Peach's waist is, if you pinch it it will break … … "
Li Muyang looked at Cui Meng and said, "If you let me be quiet for a while, I will treat you to two drinks."
"… …"
Thousand Buddha Temple was full of incense, and usually there were many pilgrims staying overnight. Therefore, the temple specially provided a lot of quiet meditation rooms for pilgrims in the back mountain.
The meditation rooms were divided into front and back courtyards, the master lived in the front courtyard, and the servants and guards naturally lived in the back.
The steward monk saw that Cui Meng and Li Muyang were close, so he kindly assigned the two to the same room.
However, Li Muyang used wine as bait, and Cui Meng finally stopped chattering in front of Li Muyang.
Li Muyang put the luggage on the table, then opened the oilcloth on top, and took Snowball out from a rattan cage inside.
Snowball had a wronged look on its face, and spat out a bubble at Li Muyang.
Li Muyang wiped his face, and it spat out another bubble.
Li Muyang simply stopped wiping his face, and let it spit non-stop. The water elements soon covered Li Muyang's face.
Cui Meng finally couldn't hold it in any longer, and looked curiously at Snowball. "What pet is this? I've never seen it before. "
"It's a rabbit." Li Muyang said.
"Pff — —"
Snowball was evidently not very satisfied with this introduction.
Li Muyang wiped the water stains on his face, and said with a wry smile, "It's a kind of flying rabbit. It's very rare. "
"No wonder." Cui Meng laughed foolishly. "I was wondering why it looks so cute."
"You get used to it." Li Muyang said. He reached out and stroked Snowball's head. "I thought it was cute at first sight, but now that I've seen it more I feel that it's just that. Our Miss often hits it — —"
"Miss Shinian is so fierce?"
"Hitting is a sign of affection, because it doesn't like eating vegetables — —"
"I see. Then it deserves to be hit. "
"Pff pff pff — —" Snowball spat wildly.
In the Jialan Hall, Cui Xiaoxin, Li Shinian and Song Tao were kneeling on the praying mat, kowtowing to Bodhisattva and making a wish.
Cui Xiaoxin's hands were clasped together, and her eyelashes were as if they were cut by a knife.
She had a focused and serious look on her face, and although her mouth was silent, she was silently praying in her heart.
Because her brother had returned safely, Li Shinian had nothing to pray for. She asked Bodhisattva to bless their family to be safe and sound, and asked Bodhisattva to bless her to grow more and more beautiful, and asked Bodhisattva to bless her to not get fat no matter what she ate. Then she opened her eyes and looked at Cui Xiaoxin. Looking at the silly expression on Cui Xiaoxin's face as she made a wish.
When Cui Xiaoxin opened her eyes, Li Shinian whispered, "Sister Xiaoxin, what did you wish for?"
"Naturally I wish for my wishes to come true." Cui Xiaoxin said in a low voice.
"Then what are you thinking about?" Li Shinian asked jokingly.
Cui Xiaoxin glanced at Li Shinian and did not speak. Instead, she propped her hands on the ground and kowtowed to Bodhisattva.
Li Shinian also followed suit, and then stood up together with Cui Xiaoxin.
Song Tao was still kneeling in the same place, and his mouth was murmuring.
Li Shinian could not clearly hear what he was chanting, but it should be a Buddhist scripture like "Bodhisattva's Original Wish Sutra" or "Medicine Buddha's Sutra" to pray for the well-being of the sick.
As the two of them walked out of the main hall, Deacon Fa Zheng stood at the door and said, "Benefactors, the Thousand Buddha Temple is famous for its thousand Buddhas. Hidden between the mountain rocks and cliffs are nine hundred and ninety-nine Buddhas, each one is vivid and lifelike, it is breathtaking. There is also a Buddha hidden in the mountains, only those with wisdom can see it. It is still early, if the two of you are interested, I can lead the two of you to take a look. "
Cui Xiaoxin and Li Shinian looked at each other, both of them were somewhat tempted.
Cui Xiaoxin looked at Deacon Fa Zheng and said, "Thank you, Great Master. However, I have long heard that the 999 Buddhas are wonderful and natural, and only those who are fated to be able to find them in the mountains and cliffs. If Great Master accompanied us one by one, we would lose the elegance of a visit. Otherwise, let us sisters search for it ourselves. "
Fa Zheng's face was full of praise, he said, "That's a great compliment. Then, Fa Zheng will take his leave. "
Cui Xiaoxin took Li Shinian's hand and said with a smile, "We will find the Thousand Buddhas ourselves."
"Okay." Li Shinian's eyes turned, thinking, how to find his brother Li Muyang to accompany him?
Inside the hall, Song Tao, who was chanting sutras, suddenly felt something and opened his eyes to look up.
He saw the Bodhisattva's closed right eye wide open, blood flowing like a river.
Thump!
Song Tao's body staggered backward, and his butt fell on the stone outside the group of servants.
His face was pale, and his body seemed to be struck by lightning.
The Gods and Buddhas were bleeding, and the country was about to die.
