After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

Shangguan Qingwan made such a firm calculation that Heng Luan was so angry that he almost jumped out of the bed. Heng Lin pushed him down, then turned his head and stared at the girl at the door with an ambiguous look. After a while, he nodded and chuckled, "Okay! Okay!"

The Second Patriarch finally understood what it meant that a penny could make a hero fall.

Heng Lin said to Shangguan Qingwan, "Miss, please wait at the door. I want to talk to my brother."

Shangguan Qingwan agreed, and when she turned around and left, she made a face at Heng Luan, which made Heng Luan so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Heng Lin was so angry that he laughed, "Brother, don't worry, there are still some things to worry about."

"What do you mean?" Heng Luan was puzzled.

Heng Lin told Heng Luan the redemption price of the golden body in detail. Heng Luan immediately closed his eyes and covered his chest. His brows were knotted and the scars on his forehead were tangled together, which was very uncomfortable to see.

"Third brother...my chest hurts..."

Heng Lin: "One visit to the doctor costs one ounce..."

Heng Luan paused for a moment, then opened his eyes, his dark pupils dim, "You go back first, as for the silver... I will find a way!"

Heng Lin pursed his lips and reminded, "Brother, if you smash, loot, burn, steal, cheat, or cheat in the human world, you will go to jail. In serious cases..."

Heng Luan interrupted him, "Who do you think my brother is?"

"Brother, don't be angry. I'm just worried that you might take an unconventional approach."

Heng Luan glared at Heng Lin.

"Okay, you take a rest first. I'm going to go back first. I'll find a way for you."

Heng Luan looked at Heng Lin's departing back and punched the quilt hard with his fist.

Hey!

I never expected that he, a great Buddha, would fall to this point!

Silver, silver! Everything needs silver!

Just like that, Heng Luan went out with Hua Shang to get money before his injury healed.

It is definitely impossible to raise so much money simply by begging.

You can only earn money based on your own ability!

Heng Luan knew that it was easy for a monk like him to make money from incense offerings, such as warding off disasters and misfortunes, and saving the souls of the dead. Rich families always needed these meaningless rituals.

Of course, if he really were to appear in spirit, he wouldn’t have the ability to do so.

Buddha, originally conveys an idea, a thought to the world, and uses thought to drive social development and progress. It is invisible, but in him, it can be manifested as tangible magic power. His magic power is bestowed by heaven, not by Buddha. In other words, without magic power, he is just a liar.

Not even as good as an ordinary monk!

For example, he had never seen or used the rituals and objects used by these monks in the human world!

I don’t know where he learned it from, but as the founder of Buddhism, he didn’t learn it from him!

Henglin left Hengluan ten taels of silver and asked him to spend it sparingly, but Hengluan spent it all in one day, using it to learn the ritual of salvation. The monk who taught the class was quite attentive, and Hengluan had a good memory, so he memorized the various ritual procedures and the names of the supplies in one day. Everything was ready, and he just needed to find a family to make money.

Who knew the waters of inviting a mage were so deep!

Although Hengluan learned it, he had no connections! The masters invited by the wealthy families in the capital were all acquaintances and had some reputation. Who would invite a monk who had just arrived, and this monk looked quite fierce.

After a few days of frustration, Heng Luan finally realized that he had been cheated.

Hungry and alone, the two sat on the street, looking hopeless.

Hua Shang was filled with remorse, regretting that he shouldn't have told that lie in the first place!

Master is right, monks cannot tell lies, otherwise they will suffer misfortune!

Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.

After the two of them had rested enough, they started going door to door looking for business.

"Hello, auntie. Is there anyone who has died in your family? I will..."

"Uncle, I see that your forehead is black, I'm afraid you won't live for long, do you want to..."

"This elder sister gave birth to a child, but unfortunately it died young. I can pray for her soul to be reborn..."

"What a good you! You actually gave birth to a child without telling me! Cancel the engagement, cancel it immediately!"

"Don't do it, Dalang..."

……

"Excuse me, could you two mages perform a ritual to save the souls?"

Heng Luan and Hua Shang had just finished melting two steamed buns and were eating them when a fat, middle-aged man dressed like a businessman asked. His eyes, which were not big to begin with, narrowed into slits, making him look kind and benevolent.

Before Heng Luan could say anything, Hua Shang's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and replied, "That's right! My master can do it! My master knows everything!"

The merchant looked at Heng Luan after hearing this. Heng Luan stood up, put his hands together, and told everyone what he knew. The merchant probably saw that his brows were cold and his appearance was solemn, as if it was a serious matter, so he knocked on the board immediately and said, "Follow me!"

Hua Shang looked at Heng Luan with joy.

Heng Luan also breathed a sigh of relief, finally he had a customer.

Then Heng Luan asked the merchant some basic questions, such as the time of birth and death of the deceased, the location... etc. The merchant just said that they would know when they arrived at the place.

Heng Luan wanted to discuss his offer again, but the merchant waved his hand and said proudly that as long as the ritual was done well, he would not treat the mage unfairly.

Only then did Heng Luan feel truly relieved.

The two followed the merchant into the carriage and set off.

Once we were on the road, we realized that the merchant's home was so far away from the capital that the journey would take more than ten days. When the carriage drove into a area of ​​loess kilns, the merchant suddenly got off the carriage and said something to the outside.

Heng Luan and Hua Shang waited in the car until the merchant's voice sounded outside the car, "Masters, get out of the car, we're here!"

Heng Luan and Hua Shang got out of the car.

As soon as they got off the car, they were surrounded by a group of dark and sturdy men.

This posture scared the two of them, and Hua Shang quickly hid behind Heng Luan.

Hengluan asked the merchant, "What does this mean, benefactor?"

The fat businessman still smiled amiably, but the words he uttered were extremely cruel. "Haha... I won't hide it from you two now. I don't lack mages here, but coal miners. Once you come here, don't even think about leaving!"

"on!"

After saying that, a group of strong men walked towards the two shocked people. When they got closer, Heng Luan could see clearly that the strong men were covered with coal dust, that's why they were so black!

Heng Luan shook his head in disbelief.

Digging coal...digging coal...

He, the great Buddha, had fallen to the point of being kidnapped and forced to work in a black kiln to dig coal...

"let me go!"

"Help me... Master... I don't want to dig coal, let me go back!"

The two people's cries for help echoed in the empty coal yard, lingering.

……

As soon as Heng Lin discovered that Heng Luan was missing, he hurried to look for Shangguan Qingwan. At that time, Shangguan Qingwan was playing with Shangguan Qingyue, so Shangguan Qingyue also knew that Heng Luan was missing.

Out of curiosity, Shangguan Qingyue took the initiative to find Zhao Ying and asked her to send someone to look for him.

Zhao Ying couldn't bear the little darling's pleading, so he informed Jingzhao Yin and asked him to look for it.

Unexpectedly, after searching for half a year, when Heng Luan was rescued from the black kiln, the fair and tender pretty monk had turned into a black monkey. The scar on his forehead, which he regarded as a shame, was in perfect harmony with his skin color, and he no longer had to worry about it.

But this is a story for later, so I won’t discuss it for now…
