C14 Chase down the Monk

These six people were the sworn brothers of the successive generations. Among them, the old name was Gan Yiyi; the second name was Kuang Lu Ping; the third was Zou Ren Sheng; the fourth was Zhao Yonggang; the fifth was Yang Dazhu; and the sixth was Zhang Tinghua. Everyone recognized a few words and knew how to read the "Three Character Classic" and "The Family Name".

Amongst them, Zhang Tinghua had the most cunning ideas, no matter what he did, they would listen to him. Zhang Tinghua's character was also quite good compared to the other five people.

Today, before arriving at the Taibai Lou, the brothers were still careful. Zhang Tinghua took Zhao Yonggang and Yang Dazhi to check out the room first. Thus, they all became careless.

The Eunuch Liu finished his last warning and just as they left, the old man selling the bananas again, "Sweet and fragrant bananas! There isn't much left, come and buy! If you don't come to buy, this old man will get hungry and close the stall. " The greedy Zhao Yonggang said first, "Don't let the old man scream all the time. Let's go and give him some food to eat." Everyone looked at Zhang Tinghua.

Zhang Tinghua was afraid that something might have gone wrong, hence after some hesitation, he decided not to. Zhao Yonggang pulled him up and said, "Sixth Brother, what are you hesitating for? We've looked inside, and there's no hidden danger. In such a desolate place, there were few passers-by. Nothing would happen to him. Besides, the Japanese had not come yet. It won't take long for us to eat a few bananas. Let's go together. "Average payment."

Yang Dazhi also said, "Yes, eating bananas at this time is also our blessing. Fourth brother was right. Sixth brother was too cautious. "Let's go with Fourth Bro." He also went forward and entangled Zhang Tinghua.

Thus, the two of them pulled Zhang Tinghua along as the six of them laughed merrily. They saw that the bananas were in bad color and looked as if they were rotting. Some were black, some were yellow, and some were mottled.

Zhang Tinghua said to the old man: "Shopkeeper, your banana is probably broken. The good ones are too little. On the scale, we are not worth it. We don't want the rotten bananas for free. You don't have much left. Let's just do this: let's pick out the food from it, finish it, and pay you some capital. You throw it away. What do you think? "

Zhao Yonggang was anxious to eat it, and seeing the old man shake his head in disagreement, he added, "Old man, it's settled. Only goods are good for the heart. Don't make a mistake, you haven't had a buyer for a long time. Are you afraid that we will not pay you back for free? "

As he spoke, he patted his pockets a few times. Immediately, the sound of coins being paid could be heard. Without waiting for the old man's permission, he first picked up a yellow one, peeled off its skin and ate it. The others also began to make their selection one after another. The booth was soon in chaos.

Seeing that he was going to be unlucky if he did not agree, the old man begged, "Masters, you can eat whatever you want, but please forgive me. Nowadays, it's not easy to support a family, and it's even harder to do small businesses. I can't make money, but don't let me lose it. I still have to buy and sell. "

The six of them did not listen to him as they rummaged through their stalls, rummaged through their baskets, and threw bananas on the ground. If anything went wrong, they would be pushed aside and thrown away. The six of them fought to be the first to eat while simultaneously choosing, afraid that they would eat less.

When Yuan Shikai and Eunuch Liu were in front of the door shouting for people, the old man heard them and did not dare to tell them. He was afraid that they might run away in a panic and not pay them back. The person that Eunuch Liu slapped was precisely Zhao Yonggang. Because of his sorry state, he also hit the right person, it was all because of him that he made a mistake.

As for the six people, they chased after the monk for a long distance. They only saw a few Taoists on their way, but they did not see the monk. All the way out of the street, the six of them were stunned. He saw that they had reached the intersection. The six of them stopped and looked around, not knowing where the monk had fled to. He wanted to ask someone, but there was no one from the other side. Zhang Tinghua said anxiously: "No need to ask, the monk won't be able to run far. We'll just split up and chase after the two of us. If the time is wasted, then that monk will run far away. "

Due to the urgency of the matter, they were not allowed to stop. The six of them immediately agreed. Gan Xingyi and Kuang Lu Ping chased after them. Zou Rensheng and Yang Dazhu chased after them. Zhang Tinghua and Zhao Yonggang passed through Hengjun City in a hurry and chased after them to the north. The three groups of people were on their way, chasing after him with all their might. They scared the pedestrians out of their wits and wondered why they were running so fast. The three groups of people did not care to ask, only chasing after the monks, chasing after the pedestrians one after another. Seeing that they were not monks, they continued to chase after them. In the end, they were too tired to run anymore.

Zhang Tinghua sat on the ground, panting as he said, "This is the first time in my life that I've run like this. I really can't run anymore. "

Zhao Yonggang also said, "I've never run like this before. I can't run anymore."

Zhang Tinghua said doubtfully, "The direction we are chasing in might be wrong. How could that monk be so fast? What happened between the front and back! Even if we cannot catch up to him, we should at least be able to see his figure. "

He thought for a while and said, "Let's not chase them for now. We should ask the people on the other side first."

The two of them gazed into the distance as they fell into their trap. He saw a middle-aged man walking towards them with a donkey in his hand.

Zhang Tinghua got up and greeted her: "May I ask Big Brother, on your way here, have you met a fat monk with a black bag in his hand?"

The man did not pay much attention, he turned around and pointed, "I did. The monk was not far down the slope ahead. However, I didn't see what he was holding. It seems like he was holding something with his hands empty. "

Zhang Tinghua still had more details he wanted to ask, but Zhao Yonggang anxiously said, "Quickly chase him, it must be him. Perhaps the monk was carrying his bag on his back, so of course this brother won't notice. "

That person also said, "He is right. I did not pay attention to the Monk's back." The two of them felt a great sense of hope, so they mustered their strength and chased after him in a hurry.

The two ran down the hill and up the hill. They chased for quite a distance and reached the fork in the road between the two sheep. Looking around, there were a lot of pedestrians on both roads, so it was impossible to tell which one was the monk.

Zhao Yonggang said, "This monk is really fast. Hurry up and find someone to ask in his direction. "

Zhang Tinghua then asked a passerby: "Old mister, did you see a monk go over?"

That gentleman turned around and pointed, "The one in front is the monk. If you all walk a little faster, you'll be able to catch up. " Zhang Tinghua and Zhao Yonggang were happy to see the monk.

The two thanked the person before hurriedly chasing after him. Gradually, they could clearly see the figure of the monk in front of them. The two forgot their fatigue as they chased after the monk.

Zhao Yonggang slowed down his pace first and said, "Sixth Brother, I don't think it's him. This monk is empty-handed, has nothing on him, does not panic when he walks, and is tall and thin.

Zhang Tinghua said: "I don't think so too. Call him, and if he has any guilty reactions, go up and catch him. " Zhao Yonggang shouted in fear, "Monk, stop!" The two of them stopped to look at the monk's reaction.

The monk was walking calmly when he suddenly heard someone shout behind him. Seeing that there were two people in the attire of evil slaves chasing after him, he thought to himself, "It's definitely not a good idea for these two people to chase me. It's better that I don't get entangled with them." After thinking about it, he ran.

Zhang Tinghua was shocked, and immediately said: "Don't tell me he didn't take anything. The one who stole the thing must be him. "Catch him!" Thus, the two of them chased after him with full confidence.

The monk was as fast as an antelope. The two of them continued to chase each other like tigers chasing wolves. At first, the monk ran slightly slower, but later on, his footsteps became lighter and faster, leaving Zhang Tinghua and Zhao Yonggang far behind.

The tired Zhang Zhao and Wang Chao opened their mouths and held their breath. They could not move a single step, and were drenched in sweat as they sat on the ground. The monk entered the forest. Zhang Tinghua gasped for breath, and was unable to say a word, as he pointed towards the forest and told Zhao Yonggang.

A while later, Zhao Yong interrupted, "I've entered that forest before. The area was not large and the trees were not thick. It was a mess of graves. This road goes through the middle. "

As the two of them spoke, their hearts did not give up and they simultaneously stood up. Zhang Tinghua said: "If you can't run, then follow him. As the saying goes, a monk cannot run away from a temple. See which temple he goes into, and catch him in the end. " Zhao Yonggang also said, "That's right. After suffering from such a tiring situation, we can't let all our efforts go to waste." The two of them quickly ran towards the forest.

They entered the forest and saw the willow trees and the tall tombs. The willows blotted out the sun, and the graves were old and new. He heard the roars of the forest and the cries of the old raven when he was far away. It was horrifying.

The two of them walked with fear in their hearts. Suddenly, Zhang Tinghua felt a sharp pain from his shoulder, being grabbed from behind. That was it: they were doing their best to be loyal and irritate a man in the forest.

The one who caught Zhang Tinghua was the monk he was chasing after. Seeing that the two of them were pursuing him relentlessly, the monk was infuriated. He intentionally lured the two of them into the forest so as to teach them a lesson by force. The monk had been hiding behind a tree close to the roadside. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Wei entered the forest and looked up, but didn't notice their surroundings. The monk let Zhao Yonggang come out from behind the tree and grabbed Zhang Tinghua from behind.

Seeing that he was caught, Zhang Tinghua anxiously turned his head to look. He saw that the monk's face was full of anger and asked from behind him, "Whose evil slave are you? Why must you painstakingly chase after my humble self? "

Zhang Tinghua also did not say anything, but was furious and quickly used his martial arts, wanting to grab the monk with his hand. Unexpectedly, that monk was extremely powerful. With just a single move, he threw Zhang Tinghua ten meters away, landed on a high grave, and then rolled down. After falling down, Zhang Tinghua was unable to struggle for a while. Zhao Yonggang was walking ahead when he hurriedly turned around to save them. The monk used a fast and powerful technique and caught him, twisted him onto the ground, and used his feet to scare him, "Speak! Whose evil slaves are you? What was he trying to do after the my humble self? "Don't you know that the monk is able to live by begging, and has no money at all?!"

Zhang Tinghua crawled up from the ground while enduring the pain. He was already too timid, thinking that he was no match for the monk. He looked closely: the monk was tall and thin, with a long, thin face and high cheekbones. He was not fat. Only now did Zhang Tinghua realize that he had made a mistake, and immediately softened. He cupped his hands and said: "Master, please calm your anger, please forgive me! The one we're chasing is a fat monk who stole our stuff. I misunderstood you. Just let him go. "

The monk raised his leg and said with a face full of anger, "You youngsters, your eyesight is strong, how can you not distinguish between fat and skinny in the day? If you dare to have the slightest bit of malicious intent, my humble self will definitely not allow it. " Zhao Yonggang was stomped on so hard that it felt like his lungs were being stomped on. He hurriedly got up and said, "I dare not! We have no intention to ambush Master, we were indeed wrong to chase after him just now, and we misunderstood Master. " Zhang Tinghua then cupped his hands and said, "Master, please bestow me your name, we would like to become friends."
