Red Monkey Storytelling —— The Water Margin (6): Lu and History (2)

Last time, Lu and Shi Jin parted ways after breaking up.

Only that Shen Zhi walked for eight or nine days, and then he came to the capital Tokyo. In front of him, it is bustling. Asking pedestrians for directions is also a kind of "caution" to prevent being laughed at by city people.

After seeing the dilapidated crock temple, it is no exaggeration to describe Suoguo Temple with "resplendence". When Shen Zhi came to the temple, the monk (the monk in charge of receiving guests) saw that the monk was very strong, holding a mord and a Buddhist monk's knife, carrying a big bag, and was a little afraid of him, so he was kind to him.

Zhike: Where are you from?

Shen Zhi: I'm from Wutai Mountain. Elder Zhizhen has a book here. He asked me to find an educated youth elder and get a job as a monk.

Zhike: In that case, please wait in the abbot.

When Shen Zhi arrived at the abbot, he opened the package, took out the letter and held it in his hand.

Know-it-all: Brother, you will be old soon. Take off the Buddhist monk's knife, and then take out the seven (monk's coat) and the seat (cloth towel used by monks to protect clothes, protect themselves, and protect beds and bedding. ), Xinxiang (called Xiangxiang in Buddhism). Wait for the elders to come and visit.

Shen Zhi: Why didn't you say so earlier?

Shen Zhi was obedient, so he untied the Buddhist monk's knife, took out a few things, and then continued to become speechless.

The guest dressed him in cassock, taught him to set his seat, and asked: Where is Xinxiang?

Shen Zhi: "What letter is sweet? I only have this column of incense. "

The guest was speechless (I don't even know the etiquette of a monk, am I a fake monk? ! At first glance, I just didn't study hard in Wutai Mountain)

When the educated youth elders came, Shen Zhi put incense in the furnace, made three obeisances and submitted a letter.

I saw that it said: educated youth, good brother, long time no see, I miss you so much (greeting at the beginning, then getting down to business). There is a little thing to ask today: Lu Shenzhi in my temple was originally Lu Tihai, who became a monk because he killed someone. He got drunk in the temple twice and made trouble in the temple. If he stays in this temple, I am afraid that people from all ministries will not accept it (monks don't lie, let him be wise first). I took refuge in your temple today. I hope you can give him a job as a monk. Thank you very much. Please don't refuse it. This monk will definitely achieve a positive result in the future, so please stay, thank you! Take care, take care! Elder Zhizhen is really a "good bole" who loves horses. )

After reading the letter, the educated youth elder asked the monks in the distance to have a rest first and then eat some vegetarian food.

After Ji Shen left. Educated youth elders called a meeting of managers of all sizes:

My brother, Elder Zhizhen, is unbelievable! The monk who came here told a story about who he was and what he did. He couldn't settle there himself, so he pushed it on me. I don't want to bring it in. My elder brother repeatedly told me not to shirk. Take him in. What if the rules are out of order? No matter how good our relationship is, I don't want you to force a naughty poor student on me. )

Zhike: I don't think he looks like a monk. What should a real monk look like with another ordinary eye? But then again, it's hard for ordinary people to judge a book by its cover. Where can this temple keep him?

Duchess: I have an idea. Our vegetable garden is always ruined by soldiers and those twenty or thirty broken houses. There was an old monk who was in charge there and didn't dare to take care of those people at all. Why don't you teach Shen Zhi to go there? I think it should be controllable. (Of course I can handle it.)

The educated youth elder agreed and asked the waiter to bring Shen Zhi in.

Elder Educated Youth: You were recommended by my brother. He wants you to become a monk. There happens to be a big vegetable garden in my temple. You can be the abbot. Let the farmers pay ten loads of vegetables every day, and the rest is yours.

Shen Zhi: Elder Zhizhen asked me to be a priest, but you didn't ask me to go to the Capital Temple or the Supervisory Temple, but asked me to take care of the vegetable garden! I want to be a monitor, but you want me to be a student on duty.

The first one: Brother, you just came here, and you haven't done any meritorious service yet. How can it be a temple This vegetable garden is also a big official. (fudge)

Shen Zhi: I don't care about the vegetable garden. I just want to be a capital temple and a supervision temple.

Block 1: Brother, listen to me. There are several kinds of people in this department. (continue to fool)

After that, he introduced the temple to Shen Zhi. Secondary and junior positions, as well as the wisdom and depth of "promise". The vegetable garden is well managed, the temple tower can be managed in one year, the bathhouse can be managed in one year, and the temple can be supervised again.

Hearing this, the Shen Zhi is fine. I don't intend to manage the vegetable garden all my life, but I have an expectation. Ok, I'm at your disposal! What a refreshing person. )

The educated youth elders saw Shen Zhi agree and breathed a sigh of relief. On the same day, he wrote a list and appointed Shen Zhi's department.

The next day, Shen Zhi resigned from the educated youth and went to the vegetable garden with his former colleagues for job handover.

Shen Zhi Caitou is on the line.

Let's talk about vegetable garden. There are twenty or thirty gamblers who used to steal vegetables from the garden for a living. Someone came to steal food that day, saw the appointment notice, and went back to discuss with the rascals:

Zongguo Temple sent a new and shanglai to manage the vegetable garden, named Lu. Let's take advantage of his new arrival to make a scene, beat him up and let him take over (we can steal vegetables later).

One of them said, we don't know him, so we can't make trouble for no reason. I have an idea. When he came, we pretended to respect him, lured him into the cesspit, and then dragged our feet into the cesspit to cheat him. hahaha.

All the rascals said, OK! All right! All right! (silly)

On this day, Shen Zhi came to the garden to watch and saw twenty or thirty gangsters holding fruit boxes of wine to congratulate them.

Shen Zhi didn't know it was a plan, so he went to the cesspit. The gang didn't move. Shen Zhi: Since you are neighbors, come in and sit down.

There are two leaders in this rascal, one is Zhang San, a street mouse, and the other is Li Si, a grass snake. They all fell to their knees and refused to get up, ready to get up when Shen Zhi went to help them.

Shen Zhi has begun to doubt. The gang was irresponsible and refused to move forward. They want to play dirty. Ok, I'll show you scoundrels the power of sticks!

Zhi Shen strides forward.

Zhang San and Li Si: Brothers have come to see Master.

Say that finish, and then go forward, one wants to drag his left foot and the other wants to drag his right foot. Before they succeeded, Shen Zhi jumped on his right foot and kicked Li Si into the cesspit.

Zhang San tried to run, but Shen Zhi kicked his left foot into the cesspit.

Those twenty or thirty local ruffians were dumbfounded and wanted to run.

Shen Zhi: One runs, one falls, two runs, two falls. (You all be good)

All the gangsters were too scared to move.
