Mysterious World Tour

An hour later, Tan Mo and others boarded a boat with Bai Guzi's expression of pain on his face.

Master Lotus paid for the journey, but it was not enough to ride the carriage all the way. Moreover, it was not safe to ride in the carriage. These days, bandits were rampant on the road, all looking for a piece of food to survive.

Fortunately, they met a boatman who was willing to take them for a ride. The boat fare was naturally more expensive than the carriage fare, but the advantage was that they could go all the way directly to the county where Brother Jiebodhi's home was, so Bai Guzi gritted his teeth and paid for it out of his own pocket.

Jie Bodhi's eldest brother's home is not in Ningjia County, nor is it close to Ningjia County.

The two county towns are separated by several mountains. It is not easy to cross them. Those are deep mountains and old forests, and there are no human beings at the foot of the mountains. The deeper into the mountains and forests, the more bizarre things happen in an endless stream, and few people can survive crossing them.

Master Lotus walked with a few friends in his early years, but the three people who survived later, including Master Lotus, never mentioned what happened in the forest.

That county is called Shaoyao County.

Before Jie Boti came home, several major families in the county joined forces to contact nearby families who rebelled against the king, and paid tribute every year, in exchange for the rare peace in Shaoyao County.

After spending the whole night in the small cabin, the four brothers and sisters ate steamed buns and discovered that the ship was about to dock.

"Take care, young masters. I heard that Shaoyao County is not peaceful these days. The old man will come back in a few days, and you young masters can go back on the old man's boat.

The boatman had been favored by Master Lotus in his early years, so he was particularly polite to Tan Mo and his party.

"Thank you, old sir."

The four brothers thanked each other and then went ashore.

The people who came this time were Tan Mo, Bai Guzi, Jing Xukong and the party member Jie Bodhi. Zhong Shenxiu and Kongmengui both stayed in the Lotus Temple.

The former was reluctant to go out, and being with Jing Xukong was awkward, so he simply refused to come.

The latter didn't see anyone there at all.

Shaoyao County is different from Ningjia County. This county is not divided into towns. There are twenty or thirty villages in a county town. It retains the appearance of the county seat when the Qing Dynasty still existed.

Foreigners with red hair and red eyes are rare in Ningjia County, but there are quite a few in Shaoyao County.

There were men and women huddled in the shops on the street. They seemed to be doing business, but they stared outside with extremely wary looks. From time to time, they would gather together and whisper a few times. Their eyes were furtive and they looked a little bit... It's not like doing business.

"Junior brother, what's going on in your hometown?" Bai Guzi poked Jie Bodhi with his elbow.

It may be due to family background, Jie Bodhi is white, fat, and looks rich. After being poked twice by Bai Guzi on the elbow, Jie Bodhi felt itchy and said quickly: "Second Senior Brother, don't bump into me like this, it will make it very itchy. I'm the most ticklish."

"Pay attention next time.˜"*°•.˜˜.•°*"˜" Bai Guzi agreed casually.

Jie Bodhi didn't care whether Bai Guzi heard it or not. He shook his head and answered Bai Guzi's question just now: "I don't know what's going on. I haven't been back for several years. If it hadn't been for the sudden failure to send me a gift this time, As long as the money comes, I will There is a possibility that I may never come back. It’s not like you haven’t read the letter that my eldest brother sends me every year. Second Brother, it’s not like you haven’t read it. In and out of words, they all tell me to be a monk at Lianhua Temple and not to return to Shaoyao County for the rest of my life, so that he and I can be together. We can still be brothers.”

"Forget it, I'd better find someone to inquire." Bai Guzi sighed, gave up asking Jie Bodhi, the person involved, then walked over and put his hand on Tan Mo's shoulder, and said: "Junior brother, if you can help me, go and Find someone to ask. You are the youngest among us and the easiest to let people down."

Tan Mo nodded.

"No problem, three senior brothers, wait for me."

Then, Tan Mo walked into a shop owned by a foreigner on the side of the road. After a quick look, he found that this shop sold everything. Washbasins, glass mirrors, candles, hoes, and even some dishes were all in a mess.

"Namo Amitabha, I have met several donors. The young monk is not here to ask for alms, but to ask how you sell the things in your shop?" Tan Mo asked slowly with his hands clasped together and a wooden face.

"Monk?" There were six foreigners in the shop, both male and female. They all had bright red hair and red eyes, and they were all wearing red-black clothes, which looked like a ball of flame.

A man walked out among them. He had a scar on his face and looked to be in his thirties. He had a slightly pointed chin, a hooked nose, and a sinister face. He stared at Tan Mo, looked him up and down, and then slowly said, "Hello, little monk, my name is Bayantu."

He said hello very politely.

"The young monk Ming Wuyan has met Mr. Bayantu."

"Please sit down, little monk Ming Wuyan." Bayantu pointed to the stool beside him. He did not ignore Tan Mo because of his young age. Instead, he looked extremely solemn. He said, "To be honest, I am not actually here to do business. Yes, I came here to find the treasure, but I haven’t found it yet, so I wanted to take some scriptures back with me. However, no monk agreed to take it. I also thought about snatching it, but... I am very grateful to the monk who is compassionate and does not kill. Spare us."

Tan Mo was stunned when he heard this. This foreigner who claimed to be Bayan Tu...

"Do you feel strange, little monk Ming Wuyan? I'm sorry, I'm not very proficient in your language, so I can't accurately express what I want to say." Seeing Tan Mo stunned, Bayantu thought that Tan Mo Mo didn't understand, so he asked seriously.

"Mr. Bayantu, I understand. You want to buy scriptures from me?" Tan Mo nodded slightly and asked.

Bayantu's face suddenly showed an extremely happy look, and he nodded repeatedly.

"That's it! I hope the monk Ming Wuyan can help!" He imitated Tan Mo's previous appearance, put his hands together, and bowed.

Tan Mo looked at him like this, thought for a while, and asked: "Mr. Bayantu not only wants scriptures, but also the method of cultivation, right?"

"Aren't scriptures the method of cultivation?" Bayantu was stunned for a moment, and then asked in astonishment: "Little monk Ming Wuyan, aren't these two one and the same?"

"Some are, and some are not." Tan Mo said, then he stood up and pointed outside: "This matter is not something that a little monk like me can decide, those are my senior brothers..."

"Hurry up and invite a few big monks in!" Bayantu said hurriedly, so a woman with red hair and red eyes ran out and came to Bai Guzi and said a few words, and then Bai Guzi followed the woman in.

As soon as he entered the door, Bai Guzi said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Bayantu, we can't make the decision on this matter. You have to discuss it with our abbot. If you want, you can go to the Lotus Temple in Ningjia County and find Master Lotus."

"Oh, Master Lotus, I've heard of this name! It is said that he is a very powerful monk! A great monk praised Master Lotus as a famous heretic who would agree to my ignorant request!" Bayantu was overjoyed when he heard the name of Master Lotus.

Tan Mo's eyes were a little strange when he heard this.

Heretic, praise...

It seems that the monks who released these foreigners were not simply released. Compassion is true, but this compassion is also false!

At this time, Bai Guzi's words that cater to Bayantu made Bayantu feel that the matter of buying scriptures is about to succeed, so he became more excited.

Seeing this, Bai Guzi smiled and changed the subject, asking: "Mr. Bayantu, do you know what happened in this county recently?"

"I know, I know." Seeing that it was a question about "business partners", Bayantu spoke quickly.
