Chapter 78

  Yang Guo stroked his train of thought, and asked another question: "Master Yuan An, who told you that we are outside and asked you to come out to receive us?"

  Yuan An said: "It was one of my senior brothers who said that you two are distinguished guests, and asked me to greet you well. I really don't know how he knew you were outside."

  Yang Guo only hated that there were no mobile phones and cameras in this world, but he still tried his best to describe: "The eminent monk has wrinkles all over his face, he always has a kind smile on his face, and his voice is extremely soft..."

  Yuan An wryly smiled and said: "The benefactor is embarrassing me. There are not a hundred old monks with such characteristics in our South Shaolin Temple, but there are always seventy or eighty. I can't take you to recognize them one by one.

  In my opinion, the benefactor should go to our guest room first and have a good rest. Whether you want to pray to Buddha or find someone, you can talk about it tomorrow. "

  Yang Guo also knew it was true, so he had no choice but to stop asking.

  And my heart became more and more curious: Who is this old monk? Did he tell Zen Master Hongye?

  While speaking, Yuan An had brought them to the guest room outside the South Shaolin Temple, and did not forget to ask: "Two benefactors, do you want one room or two rooms?"

  Yang Guo was taken aback, and immediately understood that he was euphemistically asking about his relationship with Qu Feiyan.

  Qu Feiyan said first: "I'm just a maid, I don't dare to ask for just one room, so I just want one."

  Yuan An responded well when he heard the words, and didn't ask any more questions. After all, he has been a monk who knows guests for a long time and knows how to measure.

  Seeing Yang Guo and Qu Feiyan enter the room, Yuan An said outside again:

  "Tomorrow morning, the little monk will come to listen to the two orders."

  Yang Guo closed the door tightly, heard his footsteps walking away, then asked Qu Feiyan in a low voice:

  "Do you think he's lying?"

  Qu Feiyan immediately understood what Yang Guo meant, and said, "Monks don't tell lies, so it stands to reason that Master Yuan An doesn't need to lie either.

  But the old monk just now was indeed a little weird, and he always felt that they were hiding something. "

  Yang Guo nodded and said: "The old monk heard that we were related to Yuantu Gong, and immediately disappeared, but he asked this young monk to take us to the guest room.

  Although the room we stayed in was not luxurious, but from the outside, compared to other rooms, it should be regarded as a good room.

  The old monk told the little monk Yuanan that we are honored guests, so that we could receive such kind treatment... His status in the temple must not be low. "

  Qu Feiyan blinked her eyes and asked in doubt: "Good brother, who do you think he is?"

  Yang Guo always dared to think, at this moment he said, "Maybe it's Chan Master Hongye himself."

  "Ah?" Qu Feiyan was surprised, "But if he is Abbot Hongye, why didn't he reveal his identity on the spot?"

  Yang Guo shook his head, said: "I just said this casually, so I may not be able to guess correctly.

  But no matter who he is, he is actually very concerned about us and Yuan Tugong, otherwise he would not let someone take us to live in the upper room.

  However, he may also have concerns, so he didn't talk to us in detail for the time being, and he didn't want to read Yuan Tugong's letter right away. "

  Speaking of this, Yang Guo couldn't help touching Lin Yuan's letter in his arms, always feeling that there would be a huge secret in it, about the Sunflower Collection, or other important things.

  Qu Feiyan said: "Then what shall we do?"

  She has been with Yang Guo for a long time, and she is used to listening to Brother Yang for his ideas.

  Yang Guo sighed, and said: "Looks like coming to the South Shaolin Temple doesn't mean we can sit back and relax. Before we find out the situation, we can only try to keep a low profile and don't make any mistakes."

  The two chatted here, and at the same time, they thought of the thin-faced evil monk Kong Xiang who had killed their uncle on the road, and they couldn't help feeling a little lingering.

  But they have been in distress one after another before, knowing that it is useless to be worried, so I won't say more.

  Tired from the journey, Yang Guo meditated on the chair to rest, and Qu Feiyan fell into a deep sleep on the bed.

  ...

  Early the next morning, the little monk named Yuan An really knocked on the door again, and took the two of them to have breakfast.

  Although Yuan An is young, he understands accidents very well. While eating with the two of them, from time to time he talks about the history of the construction of the South Shaolin Temple and its millennium inheritance.

  Yang Guo knew that he couldn't find out what happened to the old monk last night from this impermeable young monk, so he asked instead:

  "Little master, you are from the round generation. Your master should be from the empty generation. I wonder what his old man's name is?"

  He originally wanted to ask directly, "Is there a monk named Kongxiang in your monastery", but he immediately thought something was wrong when he said the words, so he changed his words.

  Probably because if the evil monk Kongxiang came back to the South Shaolin Temple and happened to know that someone was asking about him, there would be no reason to be suspicious.

  This matter is very important, so we have to be careful.

  Yuan An's shrewd eyes rolled around twice, as if he was thinking about whether there was anything taboo about Yang Guo's question.

  After thinking about it, Yuan An smiled and said: "Benefactor Yang seems to be very curious about our monk's Dharma name."

  Yang Guo's expression didn't change, he looked at him normally, and said calmly: "It just happened to occur to me that if the little master finds it inconvenient to mention the name of respecting the teacher, then it's okay not to mention it.

"

  As he spoke, he lowered his head and took a sip of the porridge, looking casual and unconcerned.

  Seeing this, Yuan An said, "My teacher's Dharma name is Kongxiang."

  Both Yang Guo and Qu Feiyan subconsciously tensed up.

  But they all came back to their senses immediately, it was just a coincidence, no matter what, it was impossible for the evil monk to come back so soon, even recognize them, let his disciples receive them and set up a trap to harm them.

  But since Yang Guo knew that he was Kong Xiang's disciple, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com gave up the idea of ​​inquiring about the internal situation of South Shaolin Temple from him, and just said casually: "Ha, good name."

  Seeing that Yang Guo didn't ask any further questions, Yuan An said, "The almsgiver has come from a long way, do you want to go into the temple to worship a stick of incense later?"

  Yang Guo shook his head, and said, "We came here to see your thousand-year-old temple, but we are not true believers. The intention of worshiping Buddha is not sincere, but instead angered the Buddha, come down...heh."

  He originally wanted to say that disasters would come, but he felt very unlucky when the words came to his lips, so he didn't say them.

  Although I don't believe in this way, there is no need to be quick-mouthed. What if the world is different?

  After a pause, Yang Guo said again: "Little Master Yuanan, if you have other things, you don't have to stay with me all the time. The two of us come here to play, just walk around and have a look. There is nothing that needs your special attention." ."

  Yuan An understood what he said, and said: "Those two are slow to use, and I will take a look around by myself later, I will take my leave first."

  As he spoke, he ate the last mouthful of steamed buns in his hand, and he really left Yang Guo and the two to continue eating at the dinner table, and he left first.

  Yang Guo looked at his receding back, feeling helpless.

  First, I ran into an old monk who didn't know his status in the temple last night. I wanted him to report to Abbot Hongye, but I didn't expect him to leave without further notice.

  Then came a cunning monk who knew the guests, and he would answer whatever he asked, but the more he asked, the more confused he became.

  Besides, since Yuan An is the apprentice of the evil monk Kongxiang, it is inconvenient to ask him many things.

  Thinking of this, Yang Guo said softly to Qu Feiyan: "You go back to the guest room after eating, this is South Shaolin Temple, it must be very safe. I'll follow this little monk to see if I can gain anything."
