Liao Zhai Great Kind People

Chapter 67 Let's go to school
The news of Zhang Xiu's arrest of Li Zijie quickly spread, causing an uproar in the entire Jiangnan.

The Li family that Li Zijie belongs to has great influence in the south of the Yangtze River. Even Pang Tong, the current prime minister, is also an in-law of the Li family.

His father, Li Bin, also held the post of Minister. After resigning from his old age and returning home, he indulged in sensuality and ignored world affairs.

This time his son was arrested, he used a lot of connections, more than a dozen officials wrote to persuade Zhang Xiu to release him, and two of them were Zhang Xiu's classmates in the academy.

But Zhang Xiu adhered to the principle of collecting money and not doing anything, and only took money, but would not let anyone go, which made Li Bin very angry.

Lee's lobby.

After taking a sip of ginseng tea, Li Bin smashed the teacup and said angrily, "A mere magistrate dares to offend my Li family. Do you think I can't cure him?"

The butler stepped forward with a concerned look on his face, ordered the maid to clean up the broken teacups, and said, "Master, calm down, don't be so angry. That Zhang Xiu took the young master's handle, even if the matter came to the emperor, he was the one who took it." reason."

"The current plan, if we want to save the young master, we still have to start with Zhang Xiu."

Li Bin calmed down the anger in his heart, and said dissatisfiedly: "I don't know about this, but Zhang Xiu refused to enter and charged me 20 taels of silver, but he won't let him go, what can I do!"

A sinister smile appeared on the housekeeper's face: "Master, I'm afraid you have misunderstood the meaning of the villain. When I said to attack Zhang Xiu, I meant to attack him..."

Li Bin was slightly taken aback, and nodded after a while: "Then let's change to another magistrate. I'll leave it to you to handle it at this time. Keep your hands and feet clean. Don't leave any excuses behind."

The butler replied with a flattering smile: "It's not that the villain is boasting. I leave this matter to the villain. I guarantee that the master will be satisfied. There is a Zen Master Baiyun in Ciyun Temple, who is a close friend with the villain. With him, I guarantee that the master will be satisfied." Stay in trouble."

Li Bin frowned slightly and said, "A monk?"

The housekeeper looked serious and explained: "Chan Master Baiyun is not an ordinary monk. This master is an eminent monk who has attained the Tao, a natural arhat, and is proficient in spells. If it weren't for the villain who donated money to build the temple, he had a good relationship with him. With his status as a villain, he can't get into the eyes of his old man at all."

"Qian Lin, a rich man from Hangzhou Prefecture, you know. He is known as Qian Bancheng. He has a lot of money. He doesn't like monks, but likes to make friends with Taoists. Zen Master Baiyun opened the altar after learning about this. That night, Qian Lin died!"

"Until he died, Qian Lin didn't know how he died!"

Li Bin frowned slowly, nodded and said: "So, this Zen Master Baiyun is indeed a bit skilled, you go and prepare a heavy gift, and invite Zen Master Baiyun to come out of the mountain for me."

The housekeeper took the order, went to the cashier to pay the money, got into the carriage, and slowly came to Ciyun Temple.

In the main hall, an old monk in a bright red cassock was reciting scriptures. The housekeeper stood silently at the door, and waited for the monk to finish reciting, and then asked people to bring gifts in with a smile on his face.

"Zen Master Baiyun, I am ordered by the head of the family to come here to visit you, and add some sesame oil money to the temple by the way."

The old monk turned his face, there was a brown birthmark on his right cheek, covering most of his face, he looked a little scary, he smiled, and said, "Benefactor Li has a heart."

The housekeeper smiled and explained the purpose of this visit: "Zen Master Baiyun, to be honest, I came this time with the entrustment of the Patriarch."

"My young master has been praying to Buddha since snacks, and he has devoted himself to Buddha. He happened to meet a magistrate named Zhang Xiu. He couldn't understand my young master worshiping Buddha, so he arrested my young master and put him in prison for no reason. He wronged him for instigating people to poison others. "

"I also ask the Zen master to help me and save my young master's life. Li Fugui kowtowed to you here. Please, Zen master, save my young master!"

As he said that, the butler knocked his head on the ground and knelt on the ground for a long time.

Zen Master Baiyun stared at the butler, his expression changed slightly several times, and he looked even more terrifying, which made the butler break out in a cold sweat, and then he said slowly: "I won't ask about the reason, just treat it as a gift from you. Kindness.

I will rescue the young master of the Ni family, and find Zhang Xiu's birth date. Three days later, you will hear the news of his death. "

It was easy for him to hear that what the steward said was not true, but to him, killing an ordinary mortal was just a trivial matter, so he didn't take it to heart.

The butler was overjoyed, as if he had been prepared for a long time, he took out a note with Zhang Xiu's birthday from his sleeve, and handed it to Zen Master Baiyun: "Master, this is Zhang Xiu's birthday. Ready to bring!"

Zen Master Baiyun nodded slightly and said, "Go back and wait for the good news."

The housekeeper thanked him again, walked out of the hall with a happy face, and went back to Li Bin to return his order.

In the Buddhist hall, Zen Master Baiyun glanced at Zhang Xiu's birthday horoscope, bit his finger, wrote Sanskrit on it with blood, and then recited some obscure scriptures.

At the same time, in the government office, Zhang Xiu, who was eating melon, sneezed suddenly, and turned to look at Ao Xue, whose stomach was propped up high.

"It's not a problem if you continue to be so lazy. Why don't you go to my new school, where there are children who are about your age. While you can learn to read, you can also have someone to play with you."

Ao Xue's eyes lit up: "In the school you opened, there are also children over 300 years old?"

Zhang Xiu: "..."

Yes, go to the cemetery to dig a few out some other day, and I will give you a good medical lesson!

Just as he was rolling his eyes, Taoist Xuantian, the national teacher, walked in, followed by the eldest princess Huaiyu.

The eldest princess was dressed in Taoist attire, the pride on her face was washed away, and she changed into a well-behaved look.

Seeing the two people coming, Zhang Xiu asked curiously, "Eh? Why are you here?"

Taoist Xuantian said coldly: "It's nothing, just passing by."

The eldest princess looked at her master in disgust, and said in a low voice: "I heard that you arrested Li Zijie, my master... just happened to pass by!"

Under Taoist Xuantian's threatening eyes, the eldest princess hurriedly changed her words, grabbed a melon, and ate it obediently.

Taoist Xuantian turned his face, stared at Zhang Xiu, frowned and said, "Huh? Why do you seem to be under a spell?"

Zhang Xiu was startled when she heard the words, stood up in a panic, and asked, "Sorcery? Is it serious? Is it serious?"

Taoist Xuantian shook his head slightly, and said with a solemn expression: "Although it is not obvious, I can feel that your essence is slowly draining. If this continues, it will probably only take... about 1 years. Yuan will be gone."

The eldest princess was stunned, and she couldn't help but have an inexplicable meaning in the eyes she looked at her master.

My master, I'm afraid she is not a fool, she has never heard of someone who can live for 1 years when she grows up! !
