Chapter 23 The Flying Head of the City God

"Master, have you gone out to clean them up?" Wusheng asked tentatively.

"Well, there are some bad things, and it will be uncomfortable if you don't clean up for a day." Abbot Kong Kong said.

"The abbot is mighty, ask you something."

"explain."

Wusheng immediately mentioned his work as a scripture.

"There is such a thing. I can't understand those things, so what's the point of keeping them? It's better to exchange money for wine and meat!" He waved his hand.

"That, Master, who is the vote?"

"As a ticket? I wiped my butt. Why keep that thing?" Monk Kongkong said disapprovingly.

Crack, Wusheng was stunned, as if he was struck by lightning, and he had not come back to his senses for a long time.

"Damn, wipe your butt?!"

"Yes, there's something else?"

"No, it's okay, you're busy."

Wusheng returned to his room in disheartenedness. After a while, Kongxu followed him.

"Has the abbot wiped his butt?"

"Did you see it again?" Wusheng said in surprise.

"I guessed that with the abbot's temperament, he would not leave such useless things. He never thought of redeeming the scriptures." Kongxu said with a smile.

Alas, Wushengchang sighed.

"But it's not impossible."

"What else can I do?" Wusheng asked hurriedly after hearing this.

"We are only one temple in a hundred miles away from Jinhua. If they want the scriptures, they can buy them directly as long as they have money." Kongxu said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!" Wusheng pulled Kongxu and ran out.

"Hey, why are you panic? Look at this time, we have gone down the mountain and it is dark. We have to spend the night in Ningjia Village and have a good rest. We will go down the mountain tomorrow morning and we will be able to arrive in Jinhua before dark, spend one night there, and go to the pawnshop the next day to exchange for scriptures." Monk Kongxu said.

"Okay." Wusheng nodded.

They set off early the next morning, Wusheng was afraid of encountering any accidents in the forest, so he brought a wooden stick.

"Don't worry, the abbot had already talked with them yesterday, and they would be peaceful for a while." Kongxu said with a smile.

Sure enough, the whole way was calm and there was no trouble.

Before noon, I arrived in Ningjia Village, where I had some vegetarian food. After eating, I continued on my way and arrived in Jinhua County near the evening.

But at this time the pawnshop had already closed. They knew that they would find a place to live first, and they walked around Jinhua County, and finally fell into the Chenghuang Temple. There was only an old temple prayer in the temple, wearing shabby clothes and gray hair. At least they were over 60 years old, they were about to stay away, and they were quite kind.

The temple is not big and spotless inside. It can be seen that the old temple is often cleaned on weekdays. It is enshrined in it, as well as the local city gods, and the yin gods such as sitting down and patrolling day and night. The city god is in the middle and topped the head, wearing a red dress, a crown and three long beards, which is quite majestic.

The old temple also cooked porridge to entertain the master and disciple. They hurriedly thanked him and lived in a corner of the temple when it was late.

"Master, why didn't you think about spending the night here last time?"

"I forgot that there is such a place for you," said Monk Kongxu.

"Besides, if you didn't go outside the city, how could you have the chance to meet that female donor?"

"It's a pity that there is fate but no separation." Gu Siying's face appeared in front of Wusheng's eyes and he sighed.

"Go to sleep." Kongxu fell asleep shortly after lying down, and snoring sounded.

This sleep quality is really enviable.

Wusheng was in a daze and was about to fall asleep when he suddenly heard something in the temple ringing. He was so scared that he sat up and looked around.

"No, the City God Temple is also haunted?!"

He stood up with fear and looked at the sound, and found that the statue of the City God was shaking, causing the base of the statue to sway and make a sound.

What's going on? The earthquake happened.

Ga,

There was a sudden scream outside, and the City God was shaking even more violently, and he was about to jump up.

What's going on?

He looked out through the crack in the door, and his heart suddenly jumped into his throat.

In the night sky, under the moonlight, something flew across the sky, as big as a lantern, with wings and making strange screams. That was a large head, two bloody eyes, and a big mouth, and a strange scream flew away.

After it flew away, the beating city god image calmed down.

Wusheng turned his head and stared at the city god who was sculptured by unknown things.

This city god has a spirit?!

Also, what is the head flying in the air?

During this stay, Wusheng didn’t sleep well, he thought too much and the floor was too hard.

In the early morning, after thanking the old temple blessings that they had stayed for the night, they rushed to Xuji pawnshop early. A man in his twenties was in his twenties and his eyes were rolling.

"Hello, two masters, what should I do?"

"Reden."

"Okay, please take it as a ticket."

"Sorry, I can't find the big ticket." Monk Kongxu said.

"Oh, that's not OK. You can't redeem it if you don't have a ticket." The shop guy said with a smile.

"You think of a solution, what we will redeem is a few scriptures." Monk Kongxu took out a few copper coins and handed them to the shopkeeper.

"Okay, I'll show you. Do you still remember when?" The shop asked enthusiastically after taking the copper coins.

"Well, it's been a few years since my senior brother came to be a member of the game."

"Wait." The shop took the account books and checked them one by one.

"I found it. Five years ago, a master worked here for thirty-eight scriptures, five copper coins per book, a total of 190 copper coins. If you don't use it as a ticket, you have to set up a document and the amount of redemption will be doubled." The waiter said.

"Can."

Kongxu immediately wrote down the document and handed it to the mate.

"You wait, I'll pick it up for you."

In a short while, this guy took the ancient books that were basically covered with dust and placed them on the counter.

"See if these books are there."

Wusheng took it and looked at the "Lankavatara Sutra", "Wonderful Dharma Sutra", "Futu Sutra", and "Forty-Two Chapters of Sutra"...

A total of thirty-three books,

"Why are there five books missing?"

"I don't know this anymore, I have to ask the shopkeeper." The shop said with a smile.

"He's not here today."

"Oh, then we'll come back another day. Have you seen enough of this?"

Monk Kongxu took out a few chunks of silver and put it on the table.

"Enough, enough!" said the work plan hurriedly.

He is a mate here and can't easily see money. Most people use copper coins. I didn't expect that this monk is still a rich master.

"Please ask the donor to ask your shopkeeper where those two scriptures are. We will come again in two days."

"Sure, certain." The pawnshop's work smiled.

Wusheng carefully prepared these sutra bags and carried them behind his back, feeling heavy.

These are hopes for the future.

I just left the pawn shop and didn't take long to leave, I heard someone talking on the street.
