Cui Geng took a few people out and got ready to walk around the Fang Market in Yangzhou to see if there was a prototype of Yangzhou felt hats.

This place is extremely prosperous, there are the high-grade silk of "diastole is frozen snow and light, and the accumulation is the afterglow of the sun", there is the Yangzhou mirror of "reflecting the water and the flowers are scattered, and the bamboo shadow is cold in the wind", and there is the Persian pearl of "the diameter can be inch, and the glory is clear......

Although Cui Geng and others had visited Fang City in Quanzhou, they had never seen so many fine things, and they were dizzying.

It's just about the hat shop, I saw a few, but I don't know what style is the popular Yangzhou felt hat in later generations.

Even if Cui Geng was in a ridiculous dream, he had only heard of the prestige of Yangzhou felt hats, but had never seen the real thing. So what does the Yangzhou felt hat look like, he really hasn't seen it.

Regarding how to find the Yangzhou felt hat, Cui Geng only vaguely remembered that there was such an allusion in history, which can be used as a clue: during the Tang Xianzong period, there was a famous minister named Pei Du, who was cut off by an assassin on the way to travel. It happened that because he was wearing a Yangzhou felt hat at the time, he was not cut off and survived.

In that case, this hat must be of pretty good quality, right? I can only slowly compare all the hats and then make sure that I can.

"Huh? My lord, what do you think it is? As everyone was walking, Song Genhai suddenly raised his hand and pointed into the distance.

Cui Geng looked carefully, but when he saw hundreds of people, he surrounded a small high platform with three layers inside and three layers outside, and even blocked the road.

It's hilarious, what are you doing here?

You know, in the fang market, there are both officers and soldiers patrolling to maintain law and order, and officials are responsible for taxation, how can so many people be allowed to gather?

"Let one go, let one go."

There are two strong men on the left and one on the right of Feng Changqing and Yongguang to open the way, and Cui Geng and his party quickly stood at the front of the team.

I looked closely, but I saw a monk on the high platform who was solemn and silent. Those who dare to love are all onlookers watching him.

After asking the people around, I found out that this monk's name is Zhiman. After a while, the great monk Zhiman will be about to give a lecture on the Fa. Moreover, it is not about the ordinary law, but about "vulgar teachings."

The so-called saying, Cui Geng knows.

"Vulgar Storytelling" is actually the predecessor of the later "Commentary", which contains both Buddhist scripture stories, folk rumors, and even various karma stories.

Because of the lack of entertainment life of the people during the Tang Dynasty, "vulgar speaking" is very popular with the people.

The only strange thing, as the saying goes, is not in the temple in general? Why did this monk come to the market to talk about it? The most important thing is that it is already crowded with people, the roads are blocked, and it is obviously hindering public transportation, so why don't the patrolmen care?

Cui Geng had to ask again, but the monk had already coughed lightly and officially started the "vulgar talk".

But seeing him sitting on the high platform, he looked around, and said mysteriously: "Everyone, do you know where the disaster in Yangzhou started?" ”

In fact, he had already told this story two days ago, but the people wanted to hear it again, so they still cooperated and shouted: "I don't know! ”

"Okay, it's okay if you don't know, please listen......"

In his popular saying, last year, Ao Shun, the third prince of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, turned into a huge carp and traveled along the west of the Jiangxi to play happily.

What is good is that he was caught ashore by a fisherman.

At that time, the monk Zhiman happened to pass by and saw through the fish and even the true body of the third prince of the Dragon King.

So, he persuaded the fisherman to release the third prince quickly.

But the fisherman was ignorant and ignorant, and he opened his mouth to ask for money. He was a wandering monk who was shy at that time, and he could only watch the third prince of the Dragon King turn into a pot of fish soup.

Afterwards, the Dragon King was furious, and there was a great drought in Huainan Road. At the same time, the Dragon King also entrusted this matter to today's son, and only then did His Majesty issue a ban on slaughter.

As for the monk Zhiman himself, because he had the merit of advising the fisherman, he was greatly rewarded by the dragon king.

Speaking of this, Monk Zhiman rolled up his sleeves, revealing a golden dragon head.

Zhiman continued: "Everyone, please take your eyes, this is the treasure that the Dragon King gave to the little monk, called the Ruyi Golden Dragon's Head. After drinking the water in this, you will be sick and sick, and you will be strong without disease. Whoever is willing to marry a poor monk will always take a cup of money. ”

When he finished speaking, he arranged a stack of cups in a row and said, "Open!" ”

Suddenly, the golden dragon spit water, the sweet fragrance was scattered, the effort was not large, and the ten cups were full.

Zhiman shouted, "Everyone, this is the holy water given by the Dragon King!" Consistent money, as long as consistent money a cup. ”

The people are all attracted, how can they spit water with just a faucet? And it is the monk who makes it flow and it flows, and it stops when it stops.

Could it be that this golden dragon head is really a treasure?

In the cognition of the common people, since it is a dragon head and a treasure, then this holy water should be real.

Although there has always been a lot of money, it is not impossible to get it. The effort was not great, so someone was ruthless and bought a bowl of holy water.

He took a sip on the spot, and shouted willingly, "It's delicious!" It is worthy of holy water, fragrant and sweet, and the fragrance of flowers. ”

With him taking the lead, the ten cups of holy water were quickly snatched up.

Under the psychological effect of conformity, these people actually exchanged experiences, and some people actually claimed that their backs were hot, their eyebrows were itchy, and their old cold legs for many years showed signs of helping Su...... Wait a minute.

Another reader even said loudly: "I feel like I have a spring of thoughts, haha, this time the title of the gold list, there must be me Hu Baorui!" ”

Monk Zhiman saw that the scene was so good, and hit the railway while it was hot: "Everyone, to be honest, this is nothing, how many people can be saved by holy water?" Today, the poor monks came, in fact, they formed a big relationship with everyone, that is, about the drought in Yangzhou. ”

This drought is what touches everyone's hearts!

If there is no rain, there will be no food, and if there is no food, you will starve, everyone understands! Although everyone can still hold on to their savings in the past, who knows what will happen in the future?

The people shouted: "Please also ask the master to guide the maze!" ”

"Good! Then the poor monk told everyone a great secret. Monk Zhiman said: "It's not a secret, in addition to giving the poor monk treasures, the dragon lord also made the poor monk the envoy of the dragon king, and did things for his old man......"

Zhiman said that the dragon king hated the fisherman for being greedy for money and killing his son, so he was angry with the people of Yangzhou.

Aren't you greedy for money? I'm just going to break the bank!

When Yangzhou offers a full one million yuan, he will rain and alleviate the drought.

As for how this money came from the hands of the people to the hands of the dragon lord, of course, it was through Zhiman, the dragon body messenger.

Zhiman said that 10,000 yuan is not too much, a few pennies is not too little, everyone does what they can. However, I would like to remind everyone that as long as the millions of dollars are not available, the Dragon King will definitely not rain, so in fact, the more money you donate, the better.

For a time, the people enthusiastically donated money, unwilling to be left behind.

Cui Geng roughly estimated that in less than half an hour, this guy earned three or four hundred yuan.

He looked at Chen Sanhe, pursed his lips and said, "Chen Xiancheng, what do you think?" ”

"Stinky bald donkey, actually deceived to Yangzhou, openly came to deceive people under your rule! But how to deal with pretending to be a god and a ghost, how dare you dare to get an axe in front of you? Since being taught the juggling tricks of "Samadhi True Fire" and "Rulai Divine Palm", Chen Sanhe has long admired Cui Geng's five-body throw.

Song Genhai didn't understand, and asked in a low voice: "So, the monk's golden dragon head is fake?" ”

"Nonsense, how can it be true?" Chen Sanhe rolled his eyes and said, "Tell you a trick to distinguish the true from the fake......

"What's the trick?"

"It's all fake, none of it is true! So, there's no need to tell at all! ”

"There really isn't a single one in the world?"

Chen Sanhe said firmly: "If there are really any ghosts and gods, wouldn't the emperor be all long lived?" Which emperor have you seen live past a hundred years old? ”

Song Genhai was disappointed and said, "Then what kind of trick is this golden dragon head today?" ”

"This ...... Hum! Pretending to be a ghost is not attentive. Chen Sanhe said: "This deception appeared in Chang'an City decades ago, and it was also popular in our Lingnan Road. Now I can still deceive so many people, I'm afraid that some people don't dare to open their mouths if they know about it! ”

"What the hell is going on here?"

"What's going on? We have to explain. Chen Sanhe was sleek and gave up this opportunity to be in the limelight to Cui Geng.

"Okay, I'll come, I'll come! Hitting a child on a rainy day is also idle! ”

Immediately, Cui Geng stepped forward, grabbed the monk's sleeve, and said: "What a fake monk, you dare to bewitch the public, cheat money, and go to the yamen with this official to fight a lawsuit!" ”

"Don't be rude to Master Zhiman!"

Before the monk could speak, a young man dressed in the costume of a scholar suddenly appeared in the crowd, with a white face, bright eyes, and a capable face.

The young man said angrily, "Where are you from, young man?" I don't know! Master Zhiman is a high-ranking monk, not a fake monk! If you slander the monks and have infinite sins, and you want to go to the eighteen layers of hell, you should not apologize to the master quickly! ”

Cui Geng was scolded by him for a while, so he was so unhappy, and asked rhetorically: "Your name is the young man of this official?" You say the official doesn't know anything? Not? ”

At this time, Yongguang hurriedly stepped forward, slapped the young man's mouth, and scolded: "Blind your dog eyes, this is the new parent official of our Jiangdu County - Cui County Order!" ”

Yongguang is an old qualified Jiangdu county lieutenant, in charge of the security of Jiangdu, and the security of Yangzhou is naturally under his control, so he can be regarded as the number one person in Yangzhou City.

This young man really knew him, and he had no doubts about Cui Geng's identity at the moment.

However, he was stubborn and refused to apologize, but argued loudly: "What's wrong with the county order?" Can the county order be rude to the master who came to Yangzhou to save sentient beings? ”

Cui Geng sneered: "What a master, just a charlatan!" ”

"You are not allowed to slander the master!" The young man waved his arms indignantly and said, "He is the Zhiman Master of Fayun Temple, not a fake monk. Many people here have seen it and can testify to it. Guys say, am I right? ”

"Yes!" Many people should be reconciled.

Someone even muttered: "This is the Cui County Order who doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth, and brags about Haikou?" With such a parent official, our people in Yangzhou are unlucky! ”

"At such a young age, what can you do?"

"It is estimated that he is an official who relies on his family background, how can this kind of gentleman benefit the people!"

"There is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm!"

……

……

Cui Geng had the bottom in his heart and didn't bother to argue with them.

Cangchang~~

On the ground, he turned around, stretched out his hand, and pulled out Yongguang's waist knife, stabbing at the clothes of the great monk, and said loudly: "The bad goods that have been sold and have been sold to help the people have been sold, open your eyes and look at it, and the official will let you see the true magic of this master of Zhiman!! ”
