The sun was just right. On the road, there was a tide of people. Tongcheng had always had the custom of holding a temple fair. In other places, it could be called a market.
However, with the development of the times, especially when daily shopping began to become more and more convenient, the influence and necessity of the temple fair market had been decreasing year by year. People's enthusiasm for it was also decreasing year by year.
However, there were a lot of people attending today. There were crowds of people on the road. A small high platform was set up in the middle of the temple fair. It was said that at 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the Buddha bone relics from an unknown famous temple would be sent over.
In fact, there might not be many true believers, but everyone was willing to come to participate in the fun. When the relics arrived, they were also willing to put their palms together and pray for blessings
In any case, it was just a matter of moving their hands and feet, so why not?
Moreover, if others begged and I didn't ask, wouldn't that be too much of a loss?
Anyway, I don't need to pay for the tickets.
"Hey, you guys keep a close watch over there. That, Little Wang, Little Sun, the two of you take the loudspeaker and go over there. Pay attention to maintaining order. No stampedes are allowed. Do you hear me!"
"Understood, Captain!"
"Understood, Captain!"
"Okay, go ahead."
After old Zhang gave the order, he walked to a milk tea shop across the road.
In the shop,
Boss Zhou, who was wearing sunglasses, leaned back in his chair. It was unknown if he was observing the situation outside or dozing off. Old Zhang felt that the latter was more likely.
His boss would never sit if he could lie down, and he would never stand if he could sit.
Lawyer an brought his own exclusive Super Domineering Cup,
He asked the people in the milk tea shop for some ice cubes to add to it,
From time to time, he would raise the Super Domineering Cup,
From time to time, he would raise the Super Domineering Cup,
+ 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 (Imagine Mario's voice of jumping gold coins) … ….
Old Zhang found an empty seat and sat down. There was air conditioning in the shop, so it was indeed more comfortable than outside.
Lawyer an put down the cup and looked at Old Zhang.
"Where's your ancestor?"
Why did these words sound so much like cursing?
However, Old Zhang could not do anything about it. Just like the boss's ashes mixed with rice, ordinary people could not encounter such a thing.
"I don't know." Old Zhang shook his head and guessed, "Went to the market?"
Lawyer an curled his lips. In fact, he was actually a little dissatisfied with today's arrangements.
He had arranged for the entire bookstore to run up and down outside for several days, but to no avail. In the end, Old Zhang came over and suggested this method. If Old Zhang really caught that thing this time, it would be impossible for him to find it.
Wouldn't that make him look stupid?
Don't be fooled by Old Zhang's self-righteous appearance.
This kind of person could increase the favorability of their superiors.
More often than not.
It just so happened that the boss was quite receptive to this.
Lawyer An felt that his position as the number one white glove, the number one lackey, and the number one strategist was beginning to loosen.
He was a little anxious now, and the more anxious he was, the more he habitually wanted to drink large mouthfuls of coffee to ease his anxiety.
Unconsciously,
She raised her cup again.
He gulped it down.
"Yo, are you drowning your sorrows in alcohol?"
The little boy pushed open the door and walked in.
Lawyer an rolled his eyes at the little boy.
"Actually, it's not a big problem whether that guy is caught or not. In recent years, some rules have been relaxed. Everyone can feel this.
Even the ground has begun to grow anew. Isn't it human nature for some other things to want to come out and breathe the air?
It might be collecting some incense and rebuilding a dharma body for this purpose. "
Hearing these words.
Zhou Ze, who had been leaning against the chair without moving, took off his sunglasses and looked at the little boy.
The little boy's expression did not change. He continued, "Of course, incense is not a precious thing. Most people don't actually need it.
But to be honest, don't you see whose territory this Tongcheng belongs to?
If you pass by, you have to greet the host, right?
If you're thirsty, you have to ask for a few good words from the host and ask for a few bowls of water, right?
How can there be such a person who goes to someone's house to cause trouble without saying a word? This kind of person really needs to be educated! "
Lawyer an snorted and looked at Old Zhang.
"Look, your ancestor is already so old, but he's still changing."
Life was not easy. Life was not easy.
"Has everything been arranged?"
Zhou Ze could not be bothered to let his subordinates continue their verbal war.
"It's been arranged." Old Zhang nodded.
"I was the one who invited him, and I was the one who posted the publicity. I even applied to the town government." Lawyer an also came to show his contribution.
"How did you apply?" Old Zhang asked.
"To promote the local folk culture, I found a few reporters I knew from my previous law firm and said that they wanted to do a recording and interview or something. I directly approved it."
"I'm still very curious. The sarira is..."
Before Old Zhang could finish his question, Lawyer an directly replied, "The monk was hired.
"The monk is hired, and the sarira in the box is an old glass ball. Do you know how much it costs to hire a sarira to come down and tour around?"
Old Zhang nodded when he heard this.
"Then let's not delay here. Old Zhang, settle the bill and then everyone will disperse. Whoever discovers it first, don't act rashly. The other party is very vigilant."
"Okay."
"Okay."
Lawyer an and the little boy walked out.
After Old Zhang settled the bill, he realized that Zhou Ze was waiting for him. He was a little surprised.
"Boss, I'll go out and take a look?"
"No need. Do you see the balcony on the third floor over there?"
"I see it."
"I asked Lawyer an to rent that house for me for a day. You can stay there later."
"Stay on the balcony?"
"Yes, just on the balcony. Don't go in."
Zhou Ze still remembered what happened a few days ago when Old Zhang and the old Daoist were outside the Confucian Temple. These two people clearly had a great attraction to the clone of that thing.
As for why he did not bring the old Daoist this time, even if the old Daoist wanted to join in the fun, Zhou Ze did not allow it. The reason was that if he attracted another clone and attracted the old Daoist and exploded, what would happen then?
God knew how many clones that thing had. He did not have much patience and energy to play a game of cat and mouse with the other party.
Just like that, everything was arranged. Zhou Ze strolled around the temple fair alone for another half an hour.
He still remembered that when he was in primary school, the orphanage would have some small goods wholesale every year during the temple fair in Tongcheng. Then, the children would help to participate in the temple fair to sell.
Firstly, it was used to subsidize the operation of the orphanage. Secondly, it was also to let the children in the orphanage adapt to society earlier. After all, there were very few people in the orphanage who could study and get into university like Zhou Ze and Wang Ke. Most people could quickly find a job to support themselves when they reached the age where they could be independent.
However, Zhou Ze had just strolled around and realized that there were many performances. However, the "One Yuan" and "Two Yuan" supermarkets in Hai Duo that he remembered were basically gone.
Times had changed..
It was a little hot. Zhou Ze bought an ice cream and ate it as he walked. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure in front of him. She was wearing a mask.
Just as Zhou Ze was about to greet her..,
He suddenly felt a person quickly approaching him from behind,
Almost instinctively, Zhou Ze quickly turned around and kicked out at the same time.
Why didn't he use his hand?
He was holding an ice cream in his hand.
Fortunately, after seeing who it was behind him, Zhou Ze basically lost all the strength in his foot, but just like that..
"Ah!"
Lin Yi was still kicked down by Zhou Ze.
A young beauty in a short skirt fell onto the stall selling mats next door and rolled a few times.
"Xu Le!"
His sister-in-law was very angry,
She was accompanying her sister to the temple fair when she accidentally discovered Xu Le. She wanted to come over to scare him, but she was treated like this!
Zhou Ze shrugged and ignored the raging sister-in-law. Instead, he deliberately looked at the opposite side.
"Didn't you say you were going on a trip?"
"I went out for a week and just came back."
Doctor Lin, who was wearing a mask, walked over.
"What are you doing here?" Zhou Ze asked.
"What else can I do? To look at the relics. I dragged my sister here. I want to look at the relics and pray for my sister."
Hearing this,
Zhou Ze frowned slightly,
Then..,
He nodded.
"Xu Le, it's rare. It's not easy to see you out even once," Lin Yi said.
"Tongcheng is very big."
"But every time I go shopping on South Street, I can see you lying on the sofa in the shop and basking in the sun."
"Coincidence."
"Are so many coincidences?"
"Yeah."
Zhou Ze smiled. Seeing Lin Yi and Doctor Lin, Zhou Ze's mood became much better. He teased,
"A pot of lilies I bought recently has bloomed."
Her sister-in-law's face turned bright red in an instant!
"Have you started to grow flowers now?" Doctor Lin asked curiously.
"Yes, I'm cultivating my character."
"Something happened in the hospital recently," Doctor Lin said.
"Hmm?
What's Wrong? "
Ever since Doctor Lin's profession was exposed and she was infected, she basically didn't go to the hospital anymore. Naturally, she couldn't continue to practice medicine, but the management of the hospital was definitely done by her.
"There's a patient who's preaching in the ward and attracted many other patients. I've asked someone to arrange for him to be transferred to another hospital."
"Oh?"
"The problem is that there are quite a few people who believe it. I'm afraid that something will happen."
"Yes, we do have to be careful about this."
"Hey, look, the car is here. Wow, there are so many monks. Are the relics in the car?"
In front, a modified van slowly drove into the place. Beside the van, a group of monks were chanting scriptures with their palms pressed together.
Lawyer an had indeed spent a lot of money.
Boss Zhou subconsciously touched the tip of his nose,
Fortunately, he didn't say that he was going to the public account.
His sister-in-law immediately put her palms together and began to pray at the van. Then, when she saw that Zhou Ze was still standing there in a daze, she reached out and poked Zhou Ze.
Zhou ze nodded,
Very seriously followed suit and put his palms together.
After a long time,
"Xu Le, have you seen a relic before?" His sister-in-law asked.
"Eat more coarse grains every day and drink more mineral spring water."
"What does that mean?"
"After I die, I'll probably be able to burn out the relic."
Lawyer an..,
He would probably be able to burn out a lot.
