Chapter 278 Little Master, You Have to Save Me!
Finally, he looked at the snake-bone whip on Xiao Yuanbao's waist a few more times and left angrily.
After solving this problem, it was time for lunch.
Host Huiqing was full of praise for Xiao Yuanbao.
Invite her as the guest of honor.
On the day of fasting, there are many people who come to Daye Temple to have fasting meals.
In the small square outside the dining hall, there were more than ten tables, each of which could seat ten people, and all of them were filled with pilgrims.
Xiao Yuanbao and the others sat in the inner hall, which was occupied by powerful pilgrims.
They are all well-known figures in Kinmen County.
Most of the incense offerings to Daye Temple come from their donations.
There are only three or four tables in the inner hall.
There were three people in Xiao Yuanbao's group, and they sat at the top table with the abbot. Those sitting at the table were basically the richest and most powerful people in Kinmen County.
These people had all heard of the name of Xiao Yuanbao, but had never had the chance to see him.
Today at Daye Temple, after the introduction by Abbot Huiqing, everyone wanted to talk to Xiao Yuanbao.
People who come to believe in Buddhism are generally older. After they reach the age of thirty, the older they get, the more they believe in supernatural things, such as the control of fate and other mysterious things.
Xiao Yuanbao's reputation in metaphysics can be said to be the most outstanding figure in Kinmen County.
Some people even went to Tangjia Village on purpose, but Tangjia Village did not receive them, so they had no chance to see him.
When we met today, everyone was very polite.
"I thought Master Xiao Yuanbao was a god with three heads and six arms, or a figure standing on a golden lotus, but I didn't expect him to be just an ordinary baby."
"Hey, how can ordinary people have such a cute and blessed baby with fair skin?"
"Master, my surname is Wang, and my family runs a cloth business. I went to Tangjia Village and bought the talisman you drew. It is really effective. Thank you, Master..."
"Master, my surname is Cui, and I am the inspector of the county government office, in charge of county-level public security patrols and monitoring of the people..."
…
Xiao Yuanbao was smiling all the time. When people greeted her, she would look at them with a smile.
He doesn't act like a master at all.
Everyone felt comfortable getting along with this fairy-like doll and had a lively chat.
Liao Huaiyu was concentrating on eating and had no interest in this kind of socializing. Even Little White Hair had a seat at the table, next to Liao Huaiyu.
Whenever the little white cat wanted to eat something, it would pat Liao Huaiyu twice with its paws, signaling him to pick some for it.
As for Sanbao, it was the first time he saw so many dignitaries. If his sister was not around, he might have been a little scared.
But my sister is here, and there is also Liao Huaiyu who eats as if no one is around.
I feel extremely at ease and not panic at all.
He also takes care of his sister from time to time. When his sister wants to eat something but can't get it, he stands up and helps her get it.
This is a big table, with more than ten people sitting at it.
A middle-aged man with a big belly, the one who introduced himself as Wang and whose family was in the cloth business.
Suddenly he stood up and said proudly, "Everyone, I have prepared a special hometown dish for you, called Field Fun. This dish uses secret ingredients and is extremely fresh and tender. I specially dedicate it to our Master Xiao Yuanbao. Master Xiao is so young, but he has great skills. He is really a blessing to our Kinmen County!..."
Little Yuanbao cried, "Farm Fun? Is it a big mole? It looks particularly fierce?"
The middle-aged fat man surnamed Wang exclaimed, "Yes, Master, how did you know? Did you calculate it?"
Huiqing coughed lightly, "It's like this, the temple has already released the giant ground rat. Don't bring this thing to our Daye Temple in the future. Killing is prohibited in the temple, Amitabha!"
Wang Bu Shang was embarrassed. "I'm not... well, why should I let it go? It wasn't easy for me to get this big ground rat. Daye Temple doesn't allow people to eat it, so I'm taking it back to eat. This..."
At this point, Sanbao couldn't help but speak up, "How dare you say that? Your catching of the mole not only harmed the Daye Temple, but also the people around it!"
"What do you mean?" Wang Bushang was puzzled.
Only then did Huiqing narrate what had happened.
With so many people present, Huiqing did not shy away.
"... From now on, when you come to our Daye Temple to worship Buddha, you should follow the rules. We will no longer use this kind of backdoor. Today's incident is the last one. As the abbot, I will be punished after the incident. All donors should also take this as a warning. All living things have spirits. Don't commit the taboo of killing and satisfy your appetite!"
"Yes, the abbot said so."
Many people agree.
The people at the table were talking. There were three little Yuanbaos and a dog, and the main thing they wanted to do was eat.
"Sister, the vegetarian food from Daye Temple tastes really good. Eat more!"
Little White Hair is not very interested in vegetarian food. He just tries it occasionally, but won’t take a second bite after that.
Eat whatever is delicious with Xiao Yuanbao.
There is no taboo on vegetarian food.
The three children ate with gusto.
At this time, the businessman surnamed Wang came over in a somewhat spirited manner, "Master, is that mole really that fierce? Does it have human nature? Is it very vengeful?"
Little Yuanbao's cheeks were puffed up.
There is a big mushroom on one side, chewing it.
“Yeah, a little bit.”
Liao Huaiyu said beside him, "What's wrong? Are you scared?"
The cloth merchant surnamed Wang blushed, "He is so vengeful and humane, and he has so many subordinates, so I... Little Master, can you tell me if it will be safe on my way home today?"
Sanbao said, "Go away, you want Huiqing to calculate for you? Don't disturb my sister's meal."
The cloth merchant surnamed Wang lowered his attitude, "Master Huiqing just looked at my face and said that my forehead is black, which means disaster will happen! Little Master, can you communicate with the moles and escort me back to my house and let me stay there for a few days? I'm afraid that a group of moles will come to my house and seek revenge on me. As for that big mole, as long as he doesn't hold a grudge against me, I'm willing to kneel down and kowtow to him to apologize."
Little Yuanbao stared at him with his big eyes, "Then where did you catch this big mole?"
"Hey, my servant bought it at the market! I have always loved it. My servant went to the market a few days ago and happened to see someone selling such a big mole. It is rare to find one. It cost me 10 or 20 taels of silver, which is enough to buy several pigs. It is too big for one person to finish at home, so we sent it to Daye Temple for everyone to taste together. The taste of this mole is very good, just like eating vegetarian food. You can't taste the meat at all, but it is very fresh..."
Sanbao gloated, "You ate a lot in the past, so it's no wonder they came to seek revenge on you."
At this point, the cloth merchant surnamed Wang was even more panicked, "Little Master, you have to save me! I will never dare to do this again. I will never eat this again."
Liao Huaiyu said, "Aren't you a distinguished pilgrim of Daye Temple? Why don't you just let the monks of Daye Temple take you there? No matter how many moles there are, the monks of Daye Temple have real skills. What are they afraid of a group of rats?"
The cloth merchant surnamed Wang said, "I heard that the monks of Daye Temple had been looking for the mole for several days but couldn't find it. Only you, little master, found the root of the problem as soon as you arrived. Little master, you are really amazing. Once the mole burrows into the hole, no matter how high their martial arts skills are, it will be useless. Little master has a pet spirit..."
