Chapter 192.
After sleeping until dusk, Shang San'er was woken up.

As soon as Jingxin made a sound outside the study door, the official got up, opened the door lightly, and whispered: "Sister, keep your voice down, I'm tired, I think I need to sleep for a while!"

The official's hair is still disheveled, which is no different from being favored, so Jingxin frowned: "Tired and still have the air to toss you?"

The officials of Jingxin were all bought by Xuntianhezong of the Southern Jin Kingdom, and they were sent together to the maids of Lord Shang. At that time, there were only four of them left in the city lord's mansion, and Jingxin hadn't been selected yet. If she succeeded, it was Ji Jinxian's kindness to ask her to be his wife's personal maid, so she had to come into the mansion again.

In terms of age, the official is a few months older than her. Seeing his wife's face, she usually calls her "sister", but today her tone is not good, and she looks cold: "I don't look like a sister. What do you want to do? Dare to control?"

A few days after Jingxin was eaten by Mr. Shang, she was busy with the funeral today. Xiang Shi asked her to go back to the mansion to ask if the man wanted dinner. Seeing the official's appearance when he opened the door, he thought that he was hiding in the mansion for a long time just to do that. , I didn’t like it in my heart. When I spoke, my tone was a bit aggressive, and I was a sharp person. When I was stunned, I didn’t let it go: "How long have you been free? Once you get favored, your tail will go up to the sky?"

When Jingxin was calling out, Shang San'er had already woken up, and wanted to sleep again, but after hearing a few words, she scolded inside: "It's fun to be noisy outside, but it's annoying to listen to at home! What's the matter?"

Snorting coldly, Jingxin replied: "Old madam, madam sent servants to come back and ask the master, everyone in the city is here, if you don't show up for dinner, how long will you have to sleep?"

The businessman is not very strict, and there are not many rules. Earlier, she didn't like to call herself a "servant". Among the people who asked her to come, an old lady was added to pretend to convey the meaning.

Shang San'er responded, "Understood, let's get up!"

This is the study room, not the Shishuang Courtyard. Master Shang agreed, but Jingxin didn't enter the room to wait on her.

The official was not polite, he stared at her back, gouged out his eyes, and went to get a basin to fetch water and help the master to wash up.

After tidying up the master, she begged in a low voice: "Master, wait for me for a while!"

Even though she is a maid, it takes a while to comb her messy hair, put on her headdress, and straighten her dress.

Yao Gong and Feng Tang are not here, there is no cooking in the mansion today, so we have to sit and eat together in the square in front of the Town God's Temple.

The master and the servant walked through the Tong Street, and when they arrived, it was already late, so they sat down together at the bottom seat where Zhong Xiong, Bao Zhengshan and the others were seated, regardless of their superiority or inferiority.

There were a lot of people joining in the fun, Zhong Xiong, Bao Zhengshan and others saw that nothing was wrong, and went to the tooth shop to demolish the house for a long time before they came to have a feast, so it was too late.

After demolition of the old house in Yahang, a new house will be built for Mr. Heshen according to the master craftsman's plan.

Madam is here, just sit next to the master, regardless of seniority!There is no shame in sitting with a group of men!But Ren Jingxin rolled her eyes from a distance, but the official didn't realize it.

The Huazi at the crossroads benefited the most from the banquet in the Town God's Temple Square. When Shang San'er passed by, apart from the stones and thick phlegm sent by Dong Guoji, Tong Mei, Yin Jiao, etc., there were more than ten copper coins in the broken bowl.

Let him ask for more, and the next day will be calculated separately, and the left and right will not be added to tomorrow's share. Shang San'er doesn't care, and will take it away when he comes back and passes by.

Today is in a hurry, the water table in front of the Town God's Temple, the dishes are made randomly, so that the people who join in the fun and help can fill their stomachs.

Old man Li is old, and his death is considered a joy or mourning. Apart from his relatives, he will not delay others from playing. After Shang San'er put down his chopsticks, Wang Qian came over and asked, "City Lord, can we play dice tonight?"

For funerals, most people from the city would come, and he, the Earth Immortal, also came to meet the occasion.

Shang Popi only went out for one night, and Wang Gan was in a hurry to gamble. Firstly, he had played casually for a few nights. Unlike Yin Jiao, the son of the river god who gave money, he won some every day to help advance his family and descendants. After the cost of the top-level treasure, even though the city lord has given the settlement fee, it is still not enough, and it would be good to get some income; secondly, I just realized that it is much more comfortable to be at the gambling table without feeling the usual barriers If it wasn't for losing face, I'd rather stay on the first floor of the casino and play with Ma Ji, Tu Laoer, Cao Si, Wang Yi, Zong Hao, etc., and get involved in the excitement of drinking and drinking, which might be more beneficial to my mood.

Seeing that he had a look of hope, Shang San'er was stunned for a moment, and Fang replied: "Just play when you are free, just wait for Ah Chou to finish his patrol!"

After finishing speaking, he yelled at Cao Si who was going to the gambling house first with Tu Laoer over there: "Fourth brother!"

Cao Si turned around: "What's the matter?"

"Ask the monk at the masonry shop, do you want to gamble?"

Arhat called to help change the mind of Monk Xiuji, Shang San'er has not learned well by himself, and will be hammered by his mother at any time, how can he teach others?

Still teaching gambling, the most proficient!

Cao Sidun was not happy: "Third brother, you keep calling fourth brother, but you only use elder brother as a servant? Are you short of errands inside and outside your house? And monks can still gamble?"

Shang San'er rolled his eyes at him: "If you don't ask, how do you know you're not happy? As a middle-aged man, if you go for a trip, maybe you will get some benefits? The conscience of heaven and earth is only looking for love for your brother, and it's not good for you?"

"Your conscience can only be fed to old dogs!"

The great monk used to go to the city and abstain from meat and fish, how could he be willing to gamble?But after muttering softly, he couldn't help shouting: "Second brother can wait, I won't open the cup until I arrive!"

Jogging to Dongzheng Street, when crossing the intersection, Hanako loudly flattered her again: "Fourth in the ranking, fourth master will kill all quarters tonight, and then be favored by the fairies of Liuxuyuan!"

In the mud brick industry, the still disgraced monk was still kneading bricks from the black mud dyed by magic smoke, very hard.

Beside him, there are already more than a dozen pieces, each of which is one foot long, wide and high, with words engraved on each piece, one side is "abstinence from greed", and the opposite side is "abstinence from hatred".

When I entered the city at noon, the monks only kneaded bricks without washing or eating.

Cao Si went in, no matter what he was doing, he just asked: "Master, do you want to gamble?"

Being disturbed by this fellow, the monk glared at him.

After Wei Qing's death, Cao Si was a little afraid of the great monk. He was stared at, and immediately turned around and ran out of the brick shop, and then raised his voice: "It's the old Shang who is a dog who ordered me to come, and wants to ruin the master's practice." , look for him!"

Abandoning the words, Cao Si, who didn't get any benefit, ran away again.

In the room, monk Xiuji put down the unfinished mud bricks, tilted his head to think about it, he really put down the ground, got up and performed the "cleansing technique", and went out when there was no more plaster on his body.

Among the ten precepts of novice monks that Luo Hanrang upholds, gambling can be classified into the precepts such as singing and dancing, but at this time, the monk seems to have forgotten.

But after crying for a while, making a vow, changing the closed-mouthed meditation from then on, and then returning to Green Willow City with Da Luo, all the past seemed to be empty. Only then did he recall the reason why the temple has been passed down since ancient times, and monks no longer need to observe the ten precepts of monks when they are old.

In the practice of the world, it is the heart, not the form, which is difficult for the younger generation to guard against.

So what's the point of the abstinence from killing, if you don't want to kill people in your heart, if you can't persuade evil spirits and heretics, or if you can save people by killing them, what's the problem?
When he killed Wei Qing by himself, he was guilty of anger and wanted to kill; when he took away You Mohun, he was greedy and wanted to snatch it!
The Ten Commandments that Arhats uphold are vigilance.

The layout of the Green Willow City was already known when he was looking for people to make amends last time, and he knew that the gambling house was on Nantong Street.

Either because of a funeral or because of the weather, the rest of the shops on Dongzheng Street are closed, only the pottery shop is open, and the dirty Taoist is sleeping soundly on the cabinet, drunk again.

The entire Dongzheng Street is filled with the loudest chirping of birds homing in the fish and bird shop.

At the intersection, Huazi lying on the ground "hehe" laughed, and said: "Great monk, since you entered the city and got rich with copper coins, I will donate one coin a day to form a good relationship. The Emperor Jin will make you a good fruit soon! "

Xiuji ignored it.

Walking up Nantong Street, you will see the tables and chairs for the funeral in front of the Town God's Temple, and some women are cleaning up the mess.

During the day, the monks were working in the brickwork, and those who heard the movement knew that after the Quer Temple was wiped out by Arhats, one of the villagers of Simen died of joy.

It is also a sin, but the crime should not be attributed to the arhat, but to the monks such as myself!
Sighing lightly, he looked at the leftovers and turned into the casino.

More than 30 people gathered around a gambling table on the first floor, which was very lively.

The monk raised the curtain to enter the door, Zong Hao saw it, and first scolded in the crowd: "It's a place where men are playing, can pigs and dogs come?"

Ya Bingtu's second son pulled Zonghao, "hehe" laughed dryly: "Brother, don't make trouble!"

He rushed to Xiuji again: "Great monk, the castellan and the others are on the second floor!"

The arhat destroyed the temple, but the treasure bag was not taken away. The monk had no shortage of merit leaves, but shook his head, and went to Cao Si's side, squeezed out a seat, and put some copper coins on the table.

He doesn't go up to the second floor.

Before the monk entered the door, the dice cup had already been shaken, but it hadn't been opened yet, and each one was waiting to be revealed. Before the new round was opened, Xiuji picked up one from the pile of copper coins and threw it into the injection.

Like the city master who loves to play, he does not use his own ability to find out the truth, but only guesses.

Downstairs gambling copper coins, everyone took turns to sit in the bank, Wang Yi was holding the cup at the moment, seeing that the surroundings were quiet, he shouted out in response to the situation: "Buy and leave!"

Open the cup, the monk loses, and the copper coins are lost.

Zong Hao, who won the game, got up and stood up: "The money stinks, the surname is Wang, I don't want you to pay!"

Go out in anger, don't gamble tonight!

Brothers Miao Xiu and Yuwen from Simen Village all followed behind Zong Hao, leaving half of them in an instant.

Monk Dixian was already dumb and could not speak. Wang Yi rubbed his head, undecided. Ma Ji, a calligraphy and painting shop next to him, stretched his elbows and crooked him: "Do you still want to gamble?"

Cao Si and Tu Lao Er also urged in unison: "There are still people, don't be idle!"

Wang Yi couldn't help scolding: "Damn! It's so hard to take the young master's turn to be the farmer, it's so unpleasant!"

After scolding, the great monk didn't change his face, and he felt uneasy. He added: "I'm not scolding you! Only you, an immortal, want to gamble upstairs, and your identities match! What are you doing to disturb our situation?"

Xiu Ji shook his head, looked left and right, there were nearly half of the people around, and the surrounding seemed spacious, so he went to mop the chair, sat down and waited to shake the cup.

In the past, there were so many people that there was no room to sit at the gambling table, and the fun-loving scenes were lively, and they didn't want to divide into two groups, so they all just stood and gambled.

Tu Laoer grinned, imitating the example, and dragged a chair over: "It's good if there are few people, so we can sit and play!"

Cao Si and others also went to move their chairs, among other things, they were on an equal footing with the Earth Immortal Monk, and they could brag when they went out!
Those who stayed were still willing to play, so Wang Yi shook the cup and started the next game.

The monk played a copper coin in each game, and when he won, he also grinned.

There are few people, and it is fast to take turns to sit in the dealership. When he arrived at the monk, he knocked on the gambling table, pointed at the dice cup, and signaled that he would also shake it.

You can't open your mouth, and you can't shout "buy it and leave your hand", but when you raise your eyes to signal, everyone understands what it means, and there will be no confusion.

Those downstairs have all kinds of temperaments, and they gamble more noisy than the second floor. After a while, each of them forgets his status as a fairy, and sits in the bank to reveal the cup, killing while paying, and the loser is also swearing, and the winner is also proud .

Regardless of the cultivation level of the gamblers, Xiu Ji felt for the first time that it was really interesting.

After a while, there was a sound of stairs over there, and Wang Gan, who lives in a mansion in this city, got down, first dragged the chair, and put it opposite the monk: "Add me!"

Not counting Gu Peng and the imprisoned Hua Zi, the two with the highest cultivation levels among the people in the city sat opposite each other across the table, feeling sympathetic to each other.

Knowing the truth that too much is too late, if you gamble for an hour, the upstairs will stop first, and everyone downstairs will also stop.

Zhao Tong was gone on the second floor, and today Wang Gan left the venue halfway, but there were still two new gamblers, Yin Jiao and Tsing Yi, and the excitement continued unabated.

If you go out in twos and threes, the monks will also leave.

At the door of the gambling house, my heart trembled, and I held back, not avoiding Cao Si's clapping hand.

This guy is full of guts, and after gambling together, he dared to pat the Earth Fairy on the shoulder, and pouted at the red lantern hanging opposite: "There are not many plagues from outside tonight, the fairies must be idle, you can go By chance, if someone gets blue eyes, who should I fall in love with?"

Behind him, the elder of Xuansumen laughed twice, and then said: "Master Cao is right, if Master Monk is willing to patronize, this old slave will drive away the others, and the daughters can choose!"

Listening to her talk, it seems that there is another powder falling down.

The monk didn't look back, just rolled his eyes at Cao Si, and left with his sleeves shaken.

It is also my heart not to allow pink skulls to touch my golden body.

At the back, Cao Si was begging: "Good mother-in-law, my sisters have been in the city for so long, but I haven't gotten close, please help me!"

Tsing Yi laughed "puchi": "Guesses in the city, whoring for free according to the law of fate, don't accept any money, the old slave wants to help again, how can the master from outside be spared?"

Except for Cao Si and Ma Ji who murmured, they also followed the elders in Tsing Yi to the opposite side to bump into opportunities, and most of the people who came out of the gambling house went back home.

Ah Chou was among them, knocking on the gong, and the second sound was repeated: "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"The sky is dry and the things are dry, fire prevention and theft prevention!"

The Popi City Lord stopped at the intersection, and when he was collecting copper coins from the bowl beside the stone ox, Huazi hit the ox bone board twice to respond to A Chou's gong, and shouted: "Everyone who is lucky and has won money, the sky is full of blessings!" , pass by tomorrow, reward the black dog with a coin, and it will be like this every day and everything!"

On the Dongzheng Street side, Ma Ji went to the Liuxu courtyard, and Tu Zhuang and the monk left, but they went their separate ways, even when they went to the animal skin shop and the brick and tile shop that were door-to-door, without even looking at each other.

Unlike other people who just moved into the city, no one helped him tidy up the backyard of Niwaxing, and he didn't perform Taoism when he went back.

At dawn the next day, I stopped making bricks in a hurry, went out first, went to the Xizheng Street car and horse drive, ignored other people's abuse and stares, and sat quietly in front of Old Man Li's spirit for a while.

Unable to speak, he silently recited scriptures in his heart and sent him off.

After getting out of the car and horses, go to the Temple of the City God, and see that the people preparing the banquet for the funeral are busy. The monk does not help, but just watches in the sun.

At the beginning of the banquet, no matter whether it was meat or vegetable, he would sit beside Cao Si and eat as he pleased.

But halfway through the meal, the lady of the Cao family came to find her, she didn't dare to provoke Liuxuyuan, she just scolded the man as "thief" and "absolute offspring".

Two little immortals whose cultivation base is not worth mentioning, fighting is no different from men and women in the market, the man grabs the woman's hair and won't let go, while the woman keeps grabbing the man's face.

The great monk protected the food on the table, except that he could not speak to add fuel to the flames, he also watched the fun with a smile like everyone else.

Regardless of Cao Si's handsome face, the woman grabbed several bloodstains, kicked his crotch twice, screamed, and was wronged, and Mrs. Shang didn't dare to fight back in front of his daughter-in-law.
