Chapter Twenty-Seven: First Encounter with the Evil Buddha
In Huaizuo Zhuangzhong, Bai Luofeng and Nalan Zhifeng stared helplessly at the dying Jiekong, even if they wanted to protect him, they couldn't find an excuse, they stood in the original plan and thought for a long time: With their relationship, why can't they see clearly that the monk who had no heart and lungs in the past, and was drunk in the present day, would now become like this?
Six years ago, on the road to Yanqin Mountain in southern Hunan, a scholar went to the barren land with his worn pride and official documents, he couldn't understand why Yu Shenyan clearly understood his intentions, but he wanted to send himself to that place where his career was gloomy, in his heart this doubt was far greater than the resentment of being degraded,
Xiangnan is usually a place where prisoners and Miao people live, specializing in supporting the people of bad water, but although Yanqing is poor in mountains and bad waters, it can keep people alive, and this place is rich in special minerals - gold. Yan Qin, regardless of the local aborigines or the people who have settled here, since the emperor is far away, then rely on the mountains to eat the mountains. The imperial court requires all localities to pay taxes every year, and when they arrived in Yanqin, the local yamen took their heads around, and then suddenly began to shout poverty with a handful of snot and tears while people were unprepared: Look at yourself, the poor can't even afford to raise mice.
In fact, every official who comes to serve will face two choices: first, he can understand the hard life of the local people, and accept the people's "condolences" with tears. Second, violence and non-cooperation, but the final term of office expires but people can't leave Yanqing. Therefore, in Yanqin, there was a situation of mutual protection between the government and the people, and the imperial court knew that the local squires and local tycoons were so rich that they had no way to do it.
Yang Qinglian then embarked on the road of the Yanqin Prefecture County Order, which could not see the end, and when he arrived at the place to prepare to take over the position, he found that he could not find the yamen, he saw an old and weak beggar sitting in rags in front of a dilapidated house, the old man leaned on the pillar in front of the door, comfortably pulled out the mud in the cracks of his feet and put it in front of his nose to sniff, and wrinkled his nose in extreme disgust and rubbed the mud in his hand on the ground.
Suddenly, he felt an itch in his back, scratched his back with his backhand, and after a while, there was an extra flea the size of a grain of rice in his hand, and then as if he was retaliating, he twisted the flea with two fingers and sent it to the two big yellow front teeth, and "Bangga" choked it to death.
"Old man, do you know where the yamen is here?" Yang Qinglian respectfully stepped forward and asked.
"Yamen, this is Yamen. The old man opened his loose sleepy eyes, and looked at the green shirt that appeared in front of him, although the young man was a servant of the dust, but he still couldn't cover the look in his bright eyes, and the weak appearance was obviously incompatible with this place, the old man asked casually: "Boy, outsider?"
This is actually the yamen, Yang Qinglian looked inside, and I don't know how long no one took care of it, the moss on the beams of the house was like a green curtain spread several layers, the roof still had a few skylights, a few luxuriant wall creepers hung upside down, the yellow reeds and bitter bamboos around the door wall were clustered, and the pillars of the yamen took off several pieces of red paint, and Fei Ji's eyes recognized that the table legs of the public case had been bent to the same as the rickety old man.
"The kid is a county magistrate who has just taken office, why is there no one in the old man's yamen?"
"Who can be so handsome in this place of Yanqin, it turns out that he is the county magistrate who went to work!" When the old man on the ground who originally wanted to turn around and lie down heard this, he didn't care about the nails of his fingertips full of dirt, and immediately jumped up and grabbed Yang Qinglian's hand and shook it up and down: "Where will there be no one, I am from here." β
"Are you this servant?" Yang Qinglian looked suspicious.
"It's miles, it's miles. β
"What about the others?"
"Ouch, Lord Yang, the people of Yanqin all do their own work, live and work honestly and contentmently, why do you need to be an errand steward, isn't this a waste of public food. The old man spread his hands and looked innocent.
Yang Qinglian almost sat on the ground, knowing that it had always been difficult for the magistrate of Yanqin, but he didn't expect it to be a miserable realm.
The old man got up and looked at Yang Qinglian with a look of wanting to cry without tears, his eyes flashed with disdain, and the enthusiasm of Fang Cai disappeared in a blink of an eye, he patted the rotten inch cloth on his trouser leg, and then bounced away the flies on his shoulder, and just wanted to lift his legs to leave after cleaning up, suddenly the corners of his eyebrows raised and thought of something, turned back and said to Yang Qinglian: "Lord Wang, if there are Han squires who come to visit in recent days, you can take some gifts, and you will be able to rest a lot in the future." As for the group of Miao people, you can just burn down the thatched hut and make some trouble from time to time, but they don't know Chinese and won't come to bother the adults. β
When the old man left, he also reminded Yang Qinglian very intimately: "Adults write down where their home is as soon as possible, if there is any accident in the future, I can also send a message to your family." β
The yamen was temporarily unable to enter, and Yang Qinglian could only find his own place to settle down and talk about other things.
The successive blows in one day made Yang Qinglian's heart like ashes, and the only thing that could make him feel a little relieved was that the future residence was not a big problem except for the fact that it was sometimes uninhabited and covered with a layer of soot, Yang Qinglian looked around the three earthen houses and a small courtyard, the willow trees in the courtyard were all bare willow branches, and the bird's nest under the eaves was also left empty, leaving a few miscellaneous hairs stuck by dung.
He smiled bitterly in his heart: The residence of this prefectural order is not even comparable to ordinary people in Kyoto...... But what can I do if I complain, I have been holding the sage book for more than ten years, and I grabbed the broom and prepared to do a big job. However, the sky was not satisfactory, and before he could swing vigorously, the bottom of the broom made of reed rods creaked into short branches.
At all times, the dog barked in the deep alley, in the chicken nap circle, Yang Qinglian, who had finally cleaned up, was about to go to bed to rest, and the wooden door in the courtyard was slammed.
As soon as the door opened, I saw a group of people dressed in thick clothes and linen pants standing in front of the door with lanterns and waiting, and everyone who was originally noisy and shouting heard the sound of the courtyard door opening and immediately quieted down, and the person who kept knocking on the door just now saw Yang Qinglian, and his impatient facial features were instantly crowded together.
"Lord Yang, I'm really sorry for taking the liberty to visit in the middle of the night, but my lord heard that there is a new county order here today, and he specially set up a dinner party for you to catch the wind and wash the dust, and I hope that the lord can give the lord a face to do the landlord's convenience. The family standing on the steps saluted Yang Qinglian as he spoke, and his back was about to stick to the ground.
Yang Qinglian was unhappy in his heart, he arrived here in the morning, and if he had a heart, he would be able to receive the news at the latest. It's good for you to send a few servants to knock on the door of the county order in the middle of the night, and after a while, the ghosts in the earth are almost finished swimming in the world and returning home, and a banquet is held? Who believes!
Thinking of what the old man said this morning, Yang Qinglian's heart brightened a lot, these local squires just wanted to give him a dismount, to see if he could obey them in the future, if he really went to the banquet tonight, wouldn't he be bullied by them in the future?!
"I'm tired of going back to tell your master, late tonight, the official is not tired of going through the days and nights, and wants to rest this morning and close his eyes to recuperate. Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, even though Yang Qinglian wanted to send it with official authority in his heart, but in order to prevent it from leaving a tongue in the future, he still endured his temperament and politely refused.
He helped the family up, then turned his gaze to the crowd in front of him, and shouted in a loud voice: "This official is tired and embarrassed today, I really can't take my breath, I hope you will go back to tell your master for this official, but there are other important things?"
"Ah~ Since you are really sleepy, you naturally have to rest first, your lord's body is the foundation of our Yanqin Mansion! The lord also said that if you are really inconvenient, you don't force it, but this little care...... The man raised his hand and waved outward, and another blue-robed boy walked up the steps with an ebony box, and when he arrived at Yang Qinglian, he suddenly opened the sandalwood box, and under the flickering lights in front of the door, the golden light that shimmered from the crack of the box almost blinded Yang Qinglian's eyes, and the things in the box were neatly arranged for you to touch.
"It's just that this sandalwood box is a precious and famous wood, right?" Yang Qinglian didn't wait for the sandalwood box to be fully opened, then suppressed the man's movements and fastened the lid of the box, and then the hand began to caress the wooden box.
It's really a high-grade wood, so smooth and traceless to the touch, if you don't see it with your own eyes, you will think that it is smeared with a layer of paraffin. If you push your fingers a little harder, you can even feel the faint softness. What's even more regrettable is that the box is still shining with wisps of gold under the trance of the lights, slender and sparse, as if outlining the regular visible peaks.
"Hehe, the things given to adults naturally have to be worthy of the identity of adults. The family looked at Yang Qinglian's intoxicated appearance, and was overjoyed in his heart, thinking that Yang Qinglian was no different from the corrupt officials before.
"Wood is a good wood...... Yang Qinglian put his index finger on the tip of his nose, sniffing the lingering fragrance in his hand, but his blurry gaze was bent into a hook moon in Jia Ding's stunned eyes: "It's just that this official can't afford to pay so much." β
"Your Excellency... You don't think about it too much..."The family wanted to step forward and grab Yang Qinglian's robe, but he didn't expect to hit the wooden door with his face, and the sharp pain from his nose bones and the stinging on his face made him itch unbearably.
There was a yawn from behind the door, and then the voice became smaller and quieter, and finally he lost his voice and fell into a dead silence: "The official is really tired, don't send it." β
The family in front of the door viciously slammed into the wooden door, and after a while, he spat at the door with all his strength, gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Dead Xiucai, sooner or later let you know that Yanqin is not a place where you can stay!"
In the earthen house, Yang Qinglian heard that the people outside were called away, lying on the bed and trying to fall asleep but tossing and turning, his bright eyes stared at the roof in the dark night, and what could not be left in front of him was Yu Shenyan's last down-and-out figure and the concise letter.
Suddenly, he happily got up and pushed open the window, the distant towering cliffs seemed to hear the wailing of apes, the night sky was clouded by clouds and the moon, the withered willows in the courtyard were draped with the sound of the evening wind, he grabbed the robe on his back and felt cold, and the slight drowsiness was expelled again, after a spirit, he saw the Beidou on the edge of the sky flickering frequently, and the clouds covering his heart were suddenly swept away, he turned around and hurriedly found the pen and paper and swayed down:
The passenger line is ten thousand fronts every day, and the mountains and rivers come to the south and also win the tour.
The cuckoo cries in the village and the rain is dark, and the twilight stone travels westward.
Manyan is happy with Qingyang miasma, and homesickness passes through Fangdu Prefecture.
Being in Yelang's house for thousands of miles, Wuyun Tianbei is Shenzhou.
When I woke up in the night, the fish in the morning and evening in the east showed a white belly in the mountains......
If he is in his position, he will seek his government. Although the county yamen could not be used for the time being, Yang Qinglian brought tables and chairs, put away the shocking wood and other tools for interrogation, and sat down at the entrance of the county yamen to act as a faΓ§ade, and he calculated everything: it doesn't matter if you don't have a master, you can take it yourself; it doesn't matter if you don't have a document, you can write the documents yourself; it doesn't matter if you don't have a bureaucracy, you can still play the board if you hire a few idle people in the local area, and the new yamen will be opened like this.
It was noon, Yang Qinglian was so hot that he was dizzy, and he saw a few deformed figures walking towards him in front of him, but before he could take care of his clothes, a black image escaped and the cunning rabbit rushed over, grabbed the corner of the table and cried:
"Adult, the kid is wronged, the adult must avenge the little one. β
When Yang Qinglian heard this thrilling cry, he quickly leaned over to look at the table and asked him what happened.
The man hurriedly opened his mouth and pointed behind him and cried, "My lord, someone is killing good people in broad daylight!"
Hearing that his screaming was so serious, Yang Qinglian looked in the direction he pointed, and saw more than a dozen strong men surrounding the two of them and pushing towards him.
"But those dozen people?" Yang Qinglian asked, pointing to the strong men.
"Your Excellency, are you dazzled! β
Yang Qinglian was angry: Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two of them are suffering, so you just open your eyes and talk nonsense.
"Don't believe the little one, don't believe it, you see, the little one's face is blue and purple, it's for the monk, if it weren't for the more buddies in the family, the little one probably wouldn't be able to find the adult to preside over justice." When the man saw the county magistrate looking at him with disbelief on his face, he cried even louder.
Yang Qinglian noticed his face at this time, and then began to be convinced-maybe it was really because of the blue nose and swollen face that he was beaten, and he always felt that his facial features were not in the same position......
When the two were brought to the front of the public case, Yang Qinglian remade the shocked wood and scolded: "Why are you and the other two making trouble and beating the innocent!"
Who knows it's okay not to speak, this shout continued, and one of the people who was surrounded jumped up angrily, pointed at Yang Qinglian's face and scolded: "You stupid official, don't you know what to do, this thief teased a woman, and you turned your eyes blind, didn't you go to the toilet yesterday and was confused!"
Yang Qinglian glanced at the man for a moment, and began to think that he was blinded by the sun, rubbing his eyes and taking a closer look-he was really a monk!
