Chapter 1578 1580 [Robbing the rich and helping the poor]

  Xiang Nan closed his eyes and went to sleep.

  Based on his sleep quality, as long as he closes his eyes, he can fall asleep soon.

  But I couldn't sleep tonight. Neither because the kang was too tight, nor because the pillows were too hard, but mainly because I was too hungry.

   After he and Jun Bao went down the mountain, they walked for a day before returning home.

  I thought I could see my family and have a full meal, but I didn't expect my family to be gone long ago. The other villagers didn't have anything to eat, and only gave a scoop of cold water as alms.

  Now there are no grains in my stomach, and I am so hungry that my chest sticks to my back, and the hunger is so hot that it is naturally difficult to fall asleep.

   "If I had known this before, it would be better to go to the world of "Wulin Biography". Anyway, guard the pot, there is no shortage of food." Xiang Nan muttered secretly. After a while, I fell asleep in a trance.

  …

   After some time passed, Xiang Nan woke up with a start.

   "Brother, are you awake?" Seeing Jet Li, no, Zhang Junbao grinned and bared his white teeth, smiling silly at himself.

   "Well, what time is it?" Xiang Nan looked at the sky, it was just dawn outside.

   "When I first entered Mao." Jun Bao replied.

  Xiang Nan nodded, turned over and sat up.

  According to the clock time in the temple, at Mao time, the monks in Luohan Hall had already started to practice early skills.

   "Let's go, let's hit the road." Xiang Nan rubbed his face and said immediately.

   "Brother, where are we going?" Jun Bao asked with concern.

   "Go to Luoyang." Xiang Nan explained.

  Luoyang has been a big city since ancient times. It was established here as the capital during the Xia and Shang Dynasties, with a history of more than 1,500 years. Although Luoyang ceased to be a capital after the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, it was still prosperous and it was the most prosperous city in the Central Plains.

   Big cities have big opportunities. Moreover, Liu Jin's garrison is in Luoyang.

   "Okay." Jun Bao nodded immediately.

  He is an orphan, without father and mother, he was brought back to the temple by Jueyuan to be raised since he was a child.

  Because there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and the environment is single, so I have a simple mind from a young age and have no worries. When he went down the mountain this time, he had nowhere to go, so he completely listened to Tianbao.

  Xiang Nan immediately took Jun Bao and set off for Luoyang.

  It is not far from his hometown to Luoyang, the straight-line distance is only more than a hundred miles. If you have fast legs, you can get there in a day.

  …

  The sun was coming to Zhongtian, and the weather was hot. Xiang Nan and Jun Bao were hungry and thirsty, so they sat by the road to rest.

   Opposite is a wine shop. At noon, merchants come and go here. The customers come like a cloud, and it is very lively.

  The aroma of the food was faintly audible, so that beggars gathered at the entrance of the restaurant, all of them stretched their necks and looked in, hoping that a kind person would give alms.

   "Brother, I'm so hungry~" Jun Bao said, clutching his stomach, "Why don't we go in and make alms."

"Junior Brother, we have been kicked out of Shaolin, we are no longer monks, don't talk about asking for alms." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Besides, we are not likable in our current appearance, and no one is willing to give us alms .”

   "Why?" Jun Bao asked puzzled.

   "Because we are monks, people say that seeing a monk will be unlucky." Xiang Nan explained, "When the time comes, not only will we not give alms, but we will have to be spat on."

   "Really?!" Jun Bao couldn't believe it.

   "If you don't believe me, try it." Xiang Nan laughed.

  Jun Bao hesitated for a moment, couldn't help being hungry, got up and walked into the restaurant.

   A moment later, he ran out in a state of embarrassment with a whole body of vegetable soup.

   "Brother, they are really fierce. Before I asked for alms, I recited a Buddha, and they came up to beat me, so unreasonable." Jun Bao said depressed.

   "So, if you suffer from a fall, you will learn a lot of wisdom. Don't mention alms in the future." Xiang Nan laughed.

"But I'm so hungry, what should I do?" Jun Bao rubbed his stomach and said, his stomach had been growling for a day, and he was really hungry, "It's better to stay in the temple. "

  Xiang Nan nodded.

   Just at this moment, I saw a young man all over his body, shaking a paper fan, and walking over with his followers. The attendant was holding a birdcage and a grasshopper gourd in his hands, and he looked like a libertine.

   "Master, please, give me something to eat~"

   "Sir, please show mercy~"

   "My lord, please do me a favor, I haven't eaten for three days~"

  When all the beggars saw this, they all went up to him and said.

   "Get out of here, get out of here, you stinky beggars, you've stinked out my clothes." The young man pinched his nose and scolded repeatedly.

   "Go away, go away, you have annoyed our young master, and serve you with whips~" the two servants swaggered, pushing all the beggars to the ground, even the elderly and children.

   "It's really disgusting." Seeing this, Jun Bao couldn't help clenching his fists angrily.

  He is pure and kind-hearted, and he really can't stand seeing the people suffer.

"Calm down, look at me." Xiang Nan smiled, and then walked towards the young master, "Amitabha, the almsgiver has invited you. The monk is hungry, so I beg you to give me alms or two, and make a good relationship, and I will surely meet you in the future." Good news."

"Go to hell, monk, are you trying to harm me?" The young master immediately slapped him, "If I lose money today, I will send you to the yamen and beat you thirty times." ~"

  Xiang Nan quickly ducked down and dodged from him, "Benefactor, it's fine if you don't give alms, you don't need to hit anyone~"

   As he said that, he ran away staggeringly.

   "Stinky monk, you're running fast~" The son spat again and said, "Otherwise, I will teach you a lesson." Then he took his followers and left.

  …

   "Brother, are you alright?" Seeing Xiang Nan running away, Jun Bao hurriedly followed.

   "Of course it's fine." Xiang Nan smiled, then flipped his hand over, and saw that there was an extra purse in his hand, "Let's go, let's eat~"

   "Ah?! Where did it come from?" Jun Bao was stunned and asked in surprise.

   "Steal it from that young master." Xiang Nan laughed. He had just inherited Wang Bo's stealing technique, and now he happened to have a small test of the chopper, and he hit it right.

   "Huh?! Stealing something?" Jun Bao was astonished, "Brother, that is a violation of the precept of stealing."

   "If you commit a crime, you will commit a crime. We have already been kicked out of Shaolin, and we will no longer be monks. Why should we abide by the rules?" Xiang Nan waved his hands, "Besides, I am also doing good deeds by robbing the rich and helping the poor."

  Xiang Nan said this, took out the broken silver in his purse, and went to the steamed bun shop to buy all of them into steamed buns. Ten of them were kept, and all the rest were given to the beggars on the side of the road. They were so happy that they bowed and kowtowed.

   "See, Junior Brother, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. I gave them steamed buns and saved their life. What a merit.

  In comparison, stealing can only be regarded as a minor fault. Inside and out, I still made money. Xiang Nan laughed and said, "Are you right?" "

   "It seems to make sense." Jun Bao nodded.

   "That's it." Xiang Nan smiled, then held up a steamed bun, "This steamed bun was bought with stolen money, do you want to eat it?"

   "Eat, of course." Jun Bao immediately said, "Anyway, you stole the money, and the retribution will be on you~"

   "Hey, you're not stupid~" Xiang Nan said speechlessly.
