Chapter 146 Where did this stinky beggar come from?
"Hahaha, that's definitely impossible."

The brass oil lamp said without thinking: "The body of the headless Yama is in the Yama Palace at the Ghost Gate. I saw it clearly when it left. How could it run into your shadow?"

"That's right, my shadow doesn't belong to it."

Chen Huangpi said as a matter of course: "Besides, I think that the evil shadow is definitely an alarmist."

"Master loves me the most. If he really has hidden something, he will not remain indifferent."

"It means there is nothing in my shadow."

"Even if there is, I'm not afraid."

Hearing this, the brass oil lamp asked in surprise: "Why aren't you afraid?"

"Because I am upright, I am not afraid of my own shadow."

Chen Huangpi said in a serious tone: "This is what the book says. I have read a lot of books and I will definitely not lie to you."

There are many truths in the book.

Chen Huangpi has loved reading since he was a child and has memorized many truths.

Along the way, he discovered that these principles were all correct.

Anyway, that’s what the Third Master said.

I examine myself three times a day and find that it is others who are wrong.

Since everyone else is wrong.

Then I must be right.

At this time, Fox Mountain God couldn't help but ask, "Chen Huangpi, what kind of books do you usually read? In Jingxian Temple, besides Taoist scriptures, there are only medical books and herbal classics. Are these books also called books?"

"Why not?"

Chen Huangpi said proudly: "I read the Taoist scriptures to understand the principles, I read the medical books to understand the pathology, and I read the Yaojing to understand the pharmacology."

“I have benefited a lot from all three.”

"But I know that a talent like mine cannot be replicated, because those who imitate me will live, and those who resemble me will die."

"Except my apprentice, everyone else must die."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Fox Mountain God could no longer hold back.

Because that's not what this sentence means at all.

But just as it was about to argue with Chen Huangpi and change this weird idea, the brass oil lamp secretly sent it a message: "Silly dog, have you stayed in Jingxian Temple for so long in vain?"

"He was raised by the abbot since he was a child. The abbot has been crazy for who knows how many years."

"That set of perceptions has long been ingrained in his mind."

"If it could be changed, it would have been changed back long ago."

The brass oil lamp sneered and said, "When have I ever tried to reason with him? If you can't win the argument, then you are wrong. If you can win the argument, then you are even more wrong."

"Why should it be that I am the one who is wrong?"

The brass oil lamp said faintly, "Because he also said that everything is subject to him."

The Fox Mountain God was shocked and said, "Isn't this just being a hooligan?"

“That makes sense.”

“Bullshit.”

The Fox Mountain God said angrily: "Huang Er, you are just too afraid of the master. This is the outside world, and the master can't come out. What are you afraid of?"

"Chen Huangpi treats us well."

"The abbot has gone mad. There is no hope for him. Chen Huangpi is still young. He cannot be led astray by the abbot."

"Okay! Well said!"

The brass oil lamp said excitedly: "Little fox, you are a man of courage. I, Huang Er, am not as good as you. You must say these words more often in the future, otherwise you will not have the chance to say them when you return to the Shiwan Mountains."

"Huang Er, no, Brother Huang, what do you mean by this?"

The Fox Mountain God's eyes flickered.

It always felt that there was something else Huang Er said.

And it's very hypocritical.

You know, Huang Er's body was covered with teeth marks from the first master, his body was covered with palm marks from the third master, and his body was covered with pits and holes from the gastric juice from the second master.

If Huang Er said that he had no complaints in his heart, the Fox Mountain God would not believe it.

Now that you are in the outside world, why have you never said anything bad about the master of the temple from beginning to end?

There can't be another master hiding in the outside world.

Are you always looking at Chen Huangpi silently?

but.

The brass oil lamp did not answer the Fox Mountain God.

It just gave a gloating look and then ignored it, leaving the Fox Mountain God full of doubts.

And at this moment.

At the counter of this restaurant.

The shopkeeper was puzzled when he saw Chen Huangpi sitting by the window, sometimes talking to himself and sometimes talking to the dog.

At this time, a servant came over from the kitchen carrying a bowl of vegetarian noodles.

"Boss, the noodles are ready."

"Well, here are the ten coins. Give it to the man. When the young Taoist priest finishes his noodles, let him leave quickly so that he won't delay our business."

Business in the restaurant is good.

On weekdays, there are naturally monks and Taoists who come to beg for alms.

The shopkeeper and the servant thought Chen Huangpi was begging for alms, which was not wrong.

The servant brought the noodles and money and walked up to Chen Huangpi.

"Little Taoist priest, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

As he said this, he placed the bowl of noodles on the table, then took out ten coins and whispered, "It's just a small token of my appreciation, not a token of respect."

Chen Huangpi was confused.

I just sat here and someone gave me money.

Is it so easy to make money in this outside world?
Look at that bowl of noodles again.

Chen Huangpi handed it to the Fox Mountain God without thinking.

"Little Taoist priest, why are you doing this?"

The servant was surprised and asked, "This plain noodles is for you, why are you feeding it to the dog?"

"Oh, it's for me to eat."

Chen Huangpi took the bowl of noodles back, ate it all in just a few bites, and then looked at the servant expectantly.

"Where's the rest?"

"What's left?"

The servant said in confusion: "You have eaten the noodles, and you have accepted the kindness. If there is anything left, it means that you have made up for your past karma, and it is time to leave."

Chen Huangpi asked blankly: "What is begging?"

The waiter said, "For a monk like you who comes to our store, we will give you a bowl of vegetarian noodles with some thoughts. After you finish eating, take it and say a few words of blessing, this is almsgiving."

"Isn't that just begging for food?"

Chen Huangpi said unhappily: "I'm here to eat, not to beg."

"This……"

The waiter bowed and said helplessly: "Since you came to our restaurant, you sat here without saying anything. If you came to eat, why didn't you say hello?" "It's his first time in the city and he doesn't know the rules."

"I see."

The boy suddenly realized what was going on and asked, "What would you like to eat?"

Just at this moment, the table next to us was also ordering food.

"I'd like some stir-fried pork liver."

After hearing this, Chen Huangpi said, "I want to stir-fry pork liver, too."

"Another plate of duck wings."

"I want duck wings, too."

With a slap, the person at the next table slapped the table, turned his head to look at Chen Huangpi, and said unhappily: "Another braised yellow croaker."

Chen Huangpi also slammed the table: "I want braised yellow croaker too."

The person at the next table said unhappily, "Little Taoist priest, are you trying to pick a fight on purpose?"

The servant hurriedly said, "Sir, sir, this young Taoist priest comes to the city for the first time and doesn't know anything. Please don't be surprised, please don't be surprised."

The man snorted coldly and said, "I won't bother with him. I'll have another serving of boiled beef."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The servant looked at Chen Huangpi expectantly.

"You want one too?"

Chen Huangpi shook his head and said, "I don't eat beef. Apart from this, I eat whatever they eat."

"Got it!"

The boy put the towel over his shoulders and turned away.

But after taking a few steps, he suddenly froze.

Who just said that this little Taoist priest didn’t know the rules because it was his first time entering the city?

But he turned his head and looked.

The servant only saw Chen Huangpi and the strange-looking dog lying at his feet.

The person who spoke was definitely not Chen Huangpi.

Because the sound was so sharp and thin, it couldn't possibly be this dog, right?

……

Not long after.

There was a large plate of food on the table in front of Chen Huangpi.

After eating and drinking enough.

He got up and left.

But the servant stopped him and said, "Hey, hey, young Taoist priest, why are you leaving now?"

Chen Huangpi said strangely: "I'm full, so I have to leave. Do I have to stay here?"

"You said that."

The waiter smiled and said, "This is a restaurant. If you want to stay, you have to stay at the inn. What I mean is, do you have to settle the bill?"

"What account?"

"The bill for the meal."

"Do you have to pay for your meal?"

Chen Huangpi was surprised and asked, "Isn't your restaurant a place for people to eat? Why should I pay you if I come here to eat?"

The servant was so angry that he laughed, and turned around and shouted, "Boss, this kid wants to eat a free meal."

"what!"

The shopkeeper was tall and strong. When he heard this, he immediately walked over angrily.

"I don't eat free meals."

Chen Huangpi said angrily: "If you put a sign at the door saying that you have to pay for meals, I won't come in to eat."

"How much is this meal? I'll give it to you."

As he said that, he took out all the money and placed it on the table.

The shopkeeper just took a glance and his face turned dark.

"You've eaten so much. Not counting the side dishes I gave you, the chicken, duck, fish and meat alone would cost three taels of silver."

"How dare you come to our restaurant to eat with such a small number of people?"

"I……"

Chen Huangpi knew he was in the wrong, and said with a red face: "I saw other people coming in and getting food, I thought this was a charity hall, but don't worry, I have a lot of money in the bank, I'll write you a note, you can go and get it yourself."

"Do you think I'm stupid for waiting?"

The shopkeeper was furious and said, "You poor bastard, everything on your body is not as valuable as this bodhi string in my hand, how can you still deposit money in the bank? I'm afraid you will run away as soon as you leave this door."

Chen Huangpi said: "I have read a lot of books. There is a golden house in the books. There is gold in the bank, so it is naturally my golden house."

"Have you become stupid from studying too much?"

The shopkeeper slammed the table angrily and said, "According to you, the money I deposited in the bank is also yours?"

Chen Huangpi asked curiously, "Why do you want to keep your money in my bank?"

"This is a fool."

The servant held the shopkeeper and said, "Don't be angry, this kid is not in his right mind, let me tell you."

Then the servant asked Chen Huangpi, "Where do your parents live?"

"I'm an orphan."

The servant frowned. This man was an orphan, so there was no way to ask his parents for money.

As for lying, the servant never even thought about it.

Because who would joke about their parents?

Wouldn’t that mean we are unfilial descendants?

"Besides your parents, you have no other relatives?"

"I have a master, but he has lost his mind."

"Good good."

The servant looked at the shopkeeper and said in a frustrated tone, "This kid is impeccable. Please give me some advice."

The shopkeeper was both angry and amused, so he pointed at Chen Huangpi and said, "I finally understand. You are not here to eat a free meal, you are here to find a job."

"Go wash the dishes in the kitchen and pay off your debt."

"After we're even, you can go wherever you want."

Chen Huangpi thought for a moment and said, "How about this? The Song family still owes me a lot of money, and I'm just about to ask them for the money. When I get all the money, I'll come over and pay them back. How about that?"

"What if you run away?"

"I won't run away. I can leave the Fox Mountain God here to pay off my debt."

"What Fox Mountain God?"

The Fox Mountain God lazily stood up and said, "It's me, mortal, please be polite when you speak, or I will get mad."

　The daily drama is over.
