17. Uninvited guests come smelling the fragrance(1/3)

This old beggar didn't have any voice when he came. If he wanted to eavesdrop on everyone's words, how could he be discovered? Xiao Yi said to him,

"Senior, you heard what we said just now?"

The old beggar smiled,

"I didn't listen to it on purpose, but the smell of your meat is too attractive. I just heard it when I arrived! I haven't seen anything in the old beggar before, and when did you show off your mouth? You don't have to hide it, even if you tell me! If it's really important, then I will help you find it alone!"

Xiao Yi didn't know if this old beggar was so reliable, so hesitated, and then the monk asked the old beggar.

"Senior, do you know where the old drunkard is going?"

The old beggar simply replied,

"That old guy only knows how to drink. More than two months ago, I met him in Xiangyang. He invited him to drink some authentic and good wine and gave him a lot of money! Humph, the smelly alcoholic, now I want me to help him! As for where he is going, I didn't ask him!"

The monk said,

"Senior, you two are really a perfect match. One is delicious and the other is addicted to alcohol. No wonder they can get together!"

The old beggar was intrigued and asked him,

"I said monk, do you know the old drunkard too?"

Monk Minglia nodded and smiled,

"I met you. I have seen you in Xiangyang, but I just didn't have the chance to see you, Senior!"

The old beggar smiled,

"The old alcoholic lied to you to invite him to drink!"

The monk said,

"I didn't have the money to invite him to drink, but I just happened to help someone with a little help. The other party brought wine and meat. I didn't know what to do at this moment, but happened to meet him!"

The old beggar laughed,

"He must have said that, hey, monk, you don't eat or drink anyway, so why don't you let me do it for you!"

Everyone laughed, Bai Qing said,

"That man is so bad. He actually gave him wine and meat to eat! I think they did it on purpose!"

He smiled brightly,

"Not blame others, no blame others!"

The old beggar said again,

"Monk, where did you leave your home?"

I realized that I smiled slightly and replied,

"Since I can remember, I have followed my master around. I want to tell where I went to the family, but it is difficult to explain clearly! The master only said that everything has spirituality. If I understand it behind closed doors, how can I achieve the right result? The master has been in the Pure Land for many years, and since then I am the only one walking in the world. After that, I feel that traveling around the world is my life."

The old beggar pouted and said,

"You master really bear it even if you urinate so much!"

The monk said,

"It's really hard to go out. Sometimes I have no food or drink for several days. It's lucky to be able to grow up!"

Xiao Yi asked him,

"Now, the world is stable and the people are rich, and the officials are also positive about monks. It is not difficult to ask for some food to fill their stomachs!"

I knew what he wanted to ask, and replied slowly.

"The master told me that you can't always expect others' charity. Everything needs to be exchanged for yourself. Only in this way can it be considered a true practice!"

Xiao Yidao,

"I understand, you are really an amazing monk!"

Although I have been with Ming Le for so long, most of the chats on weekdays are related to the epidemic. I don’t know much about Ming Le. I only know that he is a wandering monk and never accepts charity from others. Today, I always ask about it, and everyone’s respect increases.

The old beggar smiled,

"Eat and drink for nothing, hey, I really don't know what you monks are thinking about!"

Tong Lu was not energetic at all. He had been hungry for a long time and took out all the bread left in his arms. Although it was only enough for one person to eat, everyone would not be too hungry.

The old beggar scratched her head and asked,

"Didn't you say you're looking for someone? Why did you talk about these many other things? Tell me quickly! Who are you looking for!"

Mingzhi nodded to Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi returned to the old caller Huadao,

"There is something special, there are some special marks on the back of their heads."

The old beggar exclaimed,

"A coincidence, I saw it when I came!"

Everyone was a little surprised, Xiao Yi couldn't help asking him,

"senior……"

The old beggar frowned and interrupted Xiao Yi's thoughts.

"Call me, senior, it sounds so uncomfortable!"

Xiao Yidao,

"Old beggar, where did you meet them?"

The old beggar replied,

"Just about two hours ago, I climbed onto the tree to sleep on the waterfront not far away. When I opened my eyes, I saw it. It seemed that there were thirty or fifty people, who were packing up the passenger ship, as if they were going to go far!"

Xiao Yi asked,

"You mean, they're going to sail?"

The old beggar replied,

"They were very careful and couldn't even hear clearly. They seemed to be afraid that someone would find out! I didn't sleep all night last night, and after a few glances, I fell asleep again. When I fell asleep, I was awakened by the smell of meat, so I rushed over."

Xiao Yi thought for a while and said,

"Can they go far away?"

Tong Ludao,

"Maybe I have to go back to Hei Shui Village to have a look!"

Xiao Yi also felt something was right and asked Brother Lang,

"Brother Lang, aren't you going there? How about taking us there?"

Lang Ge'er shook his head and said,

"I went with Senior Onion, how can I tell me where I can tell you!"

When the old beggar heard it, he said,

"Hei Shui Village? I have heard of it, it seems to be quite famous. It's just that I don't walk around the world often. Later, I heard that the flood was coming, and almost all of the Hei Shui Village died overnight! Could those people you are talking about are those who survived the Hei Shui Village?"

Xiao Yi replied,

"It's them!"

The old beggar smiled,

"If you want to find this Black Water Village, it would be easy!"

Xiao Yi was afraid that more people would know about this and cause unnecessary trouble, so he thanked the old beggar and thought about going back to ask the fairy man for advice. The old beggar was a little unhappy and pouted and said,

"Okay! Then I'll ask the old man, this is OK! I'm drunk during the day, and I don't know if I'm awake!"

The old beggar got up and left, muttering,

"Hmph, Immortal Old Man, I'm so immensely angry. I don't want to cut off his eyebrows!"

After saying this, he suddenly saw Brother Lang'er's big scissors, and he burst into laughter again.

"Hehe, the scissors are ready, then I'll go there now!"

Xiao Yi hurriedly said,

"Don't worry, you'll beggars until tomorrow?"

The old beggar insisted on going, and said before leaving,

"Oh, if you owe others a favor, it's better to pay it back immediately!"

After saying that, he went out in the dark.

Tong Lu sighed,

"Hey, you guys say, does this master like to walk more? He can't even bear to ride a horse!"

Xiao Yi smiled,
