Volume 1 The Last Martial Arts Leader Chapter 9 Sponsorship

Yuantong made up his mind to build a temple on the hill opposite Leifeng Pagoda, open the door and set up a sect to save all living beings.

However, the will is full of one's arms. The cost of building a temple has become a huge problem facing Yuantong.

Yuantong stood on the hill, staring blankly at Leifeng Pagoda opposite. Although she was expressionless, I could still feel the melancholy in his heart.

At that time, I didn't understand why Yuantong had to build a temple opposite Leifeng Pagoda. He never explained it to us, but when he saw Yuantong's loss, he remembered that he repeatedly helped me save me along the way, and he couldn't help but feel sad for him.

Li Xiaoqian was going to say goodbye to Yuantong and go to Liuhu Academy, but looking at Yuantong's back, he couldn't say much sadness. Li Xiaoqian's face showed sympathy, and he said to me: "Let's just help the master."

I asked, "Do you have money?"

Li Xiaoqian took out about thirty taels of silver from his arms and said, "This is the silver given by Shao Yangchun, and there is still some left."

I glanced at the white silver in Li Xiaoqian's hand and said, "This is not enough."

Li Xiaoqian sighed and slowly lowered his head. Suddenly, he raised his head again, his eyes were bright and said, "We can go find Shao Yangchun to get a sponsor!"

I asked: "What does it mean to attract sponsorship?"

Li Xiaoqian said: "It is to ask Shao Yangchun to pay for the construction of this temple."

I glanced at Li Xiaoqian and thought to myself, this person must be stupid. Why do they have to spend so much money to help Yuantong build a temple?

Li Xiaoqian ignored me, walked to Yuantong and said, "Master, I have a way."

Yuantong said: "What method?"

Li Xiaoqian said: "Let's go find Shao Yangchun and ask him to pay for the construction of the temple."

Yuantong didn't speak.

Li Xiaoqian said again: "I'll go talk to Shaoyang Chun."

Yuantong said: "Amitabha, how good is it."

Li Xiaoqian said: "Don't worry, Master, I will cover it with me."

After saying that, Li Xiaoqian walked to me and said, "Go with me."

I asked, "Did the master agree?"

Li Xiaoqian said: "I agree."

I was puzzled and said, "The master did not nod this time."

Li Xiaoqian turned around and looked at Yuantong's back and said, "He didn't shake his head either."

It turns out that without an answer does not mean that there is really no answer. Without denial means default.

Before leaving, Shao Yangchun did not tell us where his mansion was. Li Xiaoqian and I walked around the streets and alleys of Lin'an Mansion for more than a day. We had inquired about all the slightly larger houses, but we didn't even find out about Shao Yangchun. There was no owner of the house named Shao

.

I thought to myself, maybe Shao Yangchun didn't tell us the truth. His name is not Shao Yangchun, Shao Chou is not Shao Chou, and Jiang Meier is not Jiang Meier.

Just when he was at a loss, a familiar figure suddenly flashed through the streets and alleys.

I shouted: "Shao Chou!"

Shao Chou turned around and we looked at each other. I was delighted and said, "It's him." Just as he was about to come forward to say hello, Shao Chou turned around and ran away.

"Oh, I'll go!"

Li Xiaoqian said another thing I don’t understand.

I asked, "Where are you going?"

Li Xiaoqian ignored me and went out to chase Shao Chou. I also followed quickly.

However, Li Xiaoqian looked like a weak scholar, but his legs were surprisingly fast.

I tried my best, but I chased farther and farther. Later, Li Xiaoqian's figure disappeared at the entrance of the alley. When I arrived at the entrance of the alley, I didn't know where he was running.

I looked at the two ways left and right, and felt in a difficult situation. Which direction should I go?

I have encountered such a choice countless times.

In the past, I followed Master Bamao all the way. Because of the war, many places have disappeared. We have stood at the forks of road countless times, looking at the vast road ahead, at a loss, and no one can give us some advice.

Later, we thought of a solution. That is, five people raised their hands to vote, and the minority obeyed the majority. Although sometimes they chose the wrong choice, no one complained.

Because this is the rule we agreed on together, and everyone is responsible for the results of their joint choice.

However, what I am facing now is that I am facing two directions alone. I can only follow my inner judgment. Even if I make a wrong judgment, I have to bear it alone. The feeling of loneliness arises naturally.

I sighed and was about to move in a certain direction, Shao Chou jumped out of somewhere, scaring me.

I said, "Where did you come out?"

Shao Chou said: "Haha, I'm hiding behind you, you didn't see it."

I asked, "Why did you run away when you see me?"

Shao Chou said: "I didn't see you running away. Just now, there was a creditor from our master behind you. I was afraid that they would see me, so I ran away."

I said "Oh", suddenly I felt something was wrong and asked, "Your master's creditor?"

Shao Chou said: "Yes. Our master owes him ten thousand taels of silver, so he can't pay it back, so he keeps hiding his debts."

I was very surprised. A few days ago, he was traveling with Shao Yangchun. He was generous and often cost dozens of taels of silver. He was obviously a businessman with a wealthy family. Therefore, Li Xiaoqian wanted to borrow money from Shao Yangchun to build a temple. Now, he heard Shao Chou say this.

Yangchun still has a lot of bad debts that are unclear.

I said, "A few days ago, your master was very rich and didn't look like he was owed any debt."

Shao Chou smiled bitterly and said, "When you go out, who doesn't puff your face and hold your feces and urine in your stomach? Do you have to shout all over the streets and can't you pay back the 10,000 taels of silver?"

I nodded, thinking it made a lot of sense.

At this time, a figure flashed from the corner of the alley. When we saw that Li Xiaoqian ran out panting. He ran to us, exhausted and exhausted. He pointed at Shao Chou with one hand, and wanted to say something but couldn't help it. After a long time, he said, "You, what the hell are you running?"

Shao Chou looked confused and said, "My mother didn't run away!"

Li Xiaoqian said breathlessly: "You haven't fucked running away? I'm almost exhausted!"

Looking at Shao Chou's confused look, I was filled with indignation and said, "Don't blame the good guys, he really didn't run away."

For some reason, Li Xiaoqian actually rolled his eyes and said, "Shut up." Then, he said to Shao Chou, "Where is your master living? Master Yuantong ordered me to come to him."

All of us have been deeply grateful to Yuantong. When we heard Yuantong's order to come, Shao Chou did not dare to neglect and said, "I'll take you there."

We walked around the streets and alleys, becoming more and more remote as we walked. The houses on both sides went from pavilions to broken brick houses. I deeply felt that we were walking a road from wealth to poverty. Before we reached the end, the scene in front of me was already surprised to speak.

In the deep streets and alleys, there were beggars in ragged clothes. The old man held the dying child and shed tears secretly. The dark and shriveled boy hugged his mother who had already starved to death and shed tears in pain... She cried bitterly and moaned hungryly, and she heard endlessly.

Where is this the scenery of the imperial city?

Even though I have seen separation from life and death, sadness and suffering, it is all on the land crushed by war, in the barren mountain village, and in the endless vast ancient road.

Until these shocking scenes appeared in the prosperous and luxurious Yingtian Mansion, my surprise was indescribable. Only in the years later, when I recalled the tragic scene hidden by this prosperity, I still felt infinite desolation in my heart.

At that time, Emperor Gaozong might have walked out of the palace gate countless times and walked through the beautiful Yingtian Mansion Street, accepting shoulder-to-shoulder people, brightly dressed people kneeling down and shouting long live the mountains, but they must have never seen the human tragedy hidden at the end of the eight streets and nine roads.

If he could see it, he would not be arrogant and arrogant to say "Shaozuo Zhongxing".

If he could see it, the scene would not appear before me.
