Chapter 446 The Humble Master (Part [-])

Duan Yi finally left.

Han Youning still doesn't quite understand the real reason why he left.In fact, she still didn't know much about Duan Yi, he really said too little.

On the other hand, Su Bai became more and more curious about Duan Yi, and he couldn't help but want to find out his details.Although Su Bo is from Southern Chu, that period of history is too long. Seventeen or eighteen years have passed, and he doesn't know much about the original situation.

And the people who know the most clearly are probably his grandfather and father.But his grandfather didn't dare to make the Su family bigger after spending all his money to save his life. He divided the entire clan into genealogy and went their separate ways.After that, he died in depression.But the father threw his son to the invincible Taoist priest, and took his wife to travel around the mountains and rivers.

Since then, the Su family has disappeared from the public.

Occasionally, when they think of their son, the couple will go to Wudi to watch him, talk to each other, and then leave without hesitation when he falls asleep.He hasn't been in the Invincible Temple these few years, but he hasn't seen his parents for a long time, and he almost forgot what they looked like.

Apart from his unreliable parents, the person who knows the history of the year best is his unreliable master.

Su Bai stroked his chin, thinking about how to lure Master to Xiangping Mansion.

He turned the wheelchair to the opposite side of Han Youning's desk, and showed him a Zhao Chengyuan smile, "Please trouble my concubine."

Han Youning buried his head in copying scriptures with a cold face, "No time."

Although she was angry at Su Bo's self-assertion, she really didn't have time.

The master often wants to send scriptures to pilgrims who "have a chance", but because he is too old to avoid laziness, he assigns his disciples to copy the scriptures for him.

Now that she is older, she can see more and more clearly that Master's reputation is earned by him using various schemes.

Su Bai said quietly, "Didn't you ask me to investigate the events of King Jin's birth? If I find a key point, I have to ask the master and his old man."

Han Youning looked up, "Really?"

Su Bai smiled, "Naturally. But to lure Master over, we still have to rely on Master Xuanzhi."

"That's easy to say, how to do it, I will tell Master."

Su Bo said, "As long as Master Xuanzhi sends a letter to Master, asking him to come to Hongtai Temple for a short stay and take care of food and shelter, he will come."

Han Youning was taken aback, "So simple? Your master is too miserable, and he is still at the lowest stage of survival?"

Su Bai nodded heavily, "He really can't afford to eat, after all, the Taoist temple has no income."

It's not that the master is so lofty and transcendent, it's that no one is willing to believe him, and no one is willing to donate incense to the Taoist temple.The master's only source of income is the filial piety given to him by his only apprentice every year, thirty-six taels of silver a year.

Han Youning was shocked.

She originally thought that Daoist Invincible was the same as Master Xuanzhi, and being stingy was purely a personal hobby.Unexpectedly, it was really poor.

Han Youning went to tell the master the next day.

After getting the promise of a box of snacks from the little apprentice every day, the master readily wrote a letter to Taoist Invincible and sent someone to the Invincible Temple.

Invincible Taoist Priest was really kind, he packed up the package when he received the letter, and left with the horse that delivered the letter.

After all, he didn't have a horse, and he couldn't bear the money to hire a carriage, and he couldn't bear to eat and drink on the road.

He climbed up the mountain with quick legs and feet, and happily rushed into Master Xuanzhi's meditation room, "Old monk, when did you become so generous?"

Master Xuanzhi ate glutinous rice osmanthus cake slowly, "My Buddha is merciful, I can't just watch the old Taoist starve to death."

Invincible Daoist was thin, with a patched Taoist robe, a messy beard that was sparse and dry, and he looked like a refugee.

He pouted his beard and said, "At least I took care of your accommodation for more than a month, and you should pay me back."

Seeing the old monk eating alone, he didn't know whether to let him be a guest, so he sat down straight away, picked up a glutinous osmanthus cake and ate it.

His small eyes narrowed into lines, "It's delicious! Did that little apprentice of yours make it?"

"Ask knowingly, did you steal half of my meal if you didn't eat it?"

Master Xuanzhi speeded up the speed of eating snacks.

The Invincible Daoist also speeded up.

The snack box was soon empty, and the old monk and the old Taoist burped at the same time.

Daoist Invincible sighed, "It's still your disciple who is filial. My unfilial disciple, I feed him and teach him skills, and I haven't given me a box of snacks for so many years."

"Thirty-six taels of silver a year is enough for you to buy several boxes of snacks!"

The door curtain was lifted, and Su Bai and Han Youning came in.

Su Bai stood up from the wheelchair, patted his leg, "Your unfilial apprentice was sold to King Jin for ten years, and his leg was broken as soon as he said it was broken. The princess is not such an unreliable master!"

Invincible Taoist squinted his eyes and looked him up and down, "I'm fat, it seems that I ate well in Chen's house."

Su Bai stared at him dangerously, "How about I break your leg and give you good food and drink every day?"

Invincible Daoist pointed at him and said indignantly, "The villain, the villain!"

He turned his head and said to Master Xuanzhi, "You see, I'm not talking nonsense, right? This is my evil disciple!"

Master Xuanzhi shook his head sympathetically.

He turned to look at his little villain with relief. In comparison, he really didn't know the blessings in the blessings.

So, happiness is relative.

The Invincible Daoist walked to Han Youning again, "Girl, I, this scoundrel, have caused you a lot of trouble, haven't I?"

Han Youning smiled, "Fortunately, I just like to make my own decisions too much."

Invincible Daoist nodded as if he had found a bosom friend, "You are so right! When he followed me back then, he made decisions for me a lot, as if he was the master and I was the apprentice. And that year thirty-six taels The filial piety of three taels a month is what he counted on his fingers. He said that he taught kung fu one tael a month, taught Taoism one tael a month, and the other one tael was his food expenses. But originally his father promised Give two hundred taels of silver every year..."

Invincible Taoist began to enumerate Su Bai's various evil deeds.

Su Bai lifted his robe and sat down on the futon, "The villain is here to give you tribute, since you don't care about it, then forget it."

"Rare, rare!"

Invincible Daoist immediately put on a smiling face, sat down next to his apprentice, and asked with a smile, "Is it really here to show filial piety?"

Su Bai took the purse from his waist and shook it in his hands, and there was a heavy sound from the bulging purse.

"Fifty two."

"Good apprentice, have you raised your filial piety?"

Daoist Invincible's small eyes lit up immediately, his thin face turned into a dry chrysanthemum smile, and he reached for his purse.

Su Bai hid his hands back, and asked with a smile, "Stop scolding scoundrels?"

"Stop scolding, stop scolding." Invincible Daoist smiled flatteringly, "Isn't the master-student relationship between us cultivated by such noise?"

"Remember what you said."

Su Bai put the purse in his hand.

Invincible Daoist shook his wallet with a smile, "Is it enough? Why do I feel that it is less than fifty taels?"

"Give it back to me, I'll find Xiaocheng to weigh it." Su Bai made a gesture to take the purse back.

Invincible Daoist hurriedly put the purse into his arms, "No need, I trust you!"

Master Xuanzhi shook his head and sighed, this master is really humble.
