Chapter 1720: The Abbot Takes Action
After a moment, the abbot suddenly shouted in a low voice.
He applied a little more force with his palm and then left Shopkeeper Yu's body.
Put your hands together and say: "Amitabha."
Everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Taoist Priest Kunshan looked at him, then looked at Shopkeeper Yu, and laughed out loud.
"That's it?"
"Old monk, don't you think that you can cure someone by pressing twice without giving them any medicine?"
"If you can really cure it, I'll take your last name."
The abbot smiled and said, "Amitabha, I have long forgotten my secular name, so it is better not to follow it."
Taoist Priest Kunshan: "You..."
"Okay, if you can cure it, I will..."
Before he finished speaking, the abbot saw the bag of silver on him, which was just given to him by the Qiu family's followers.
The abbot smiled calmly, with a kind of otherworldly indifference: "Well, I am no longer at the age of being competitive, but since the Taoist insists, why not do this? If I can cure him, you can take out the bag of silver and put it in the shopkeeper Yu's shop."
"Whoever wants to buy something here can pay from this money until it's all deducted. How do you think?"
When everyone heard this, they were very happy. The things in Manager Yu's shop were of very good quality. The money looked like a full bag, but it was quite a lot. Maybe they could really get a bargain.
Taoist Priest Kunshan's eyes flashed with guilt: "This..."
"Master, you wouldn't dare, would you?"
"You won't refuse, will you?"
"If you don't agree, you're admitting defeat."
Taoist priest Kunshan was stunned by these words. He turned around to look at Shopkeeper Yu who was still unconscious. He thought how could it be possible? He hadn't taken any medicine or had any acupuncture. How could he be cured with just a single press?
joke!
No, can't be bluffed.
He just didn't believe that the old monk could really cure it.
Thinking of this, he said loudly: "Okay, as you say."
"If Shopkeeper Yu can wake up, I will give this bag of silver to Shopkeeper Yu and ask everyone to buy things and pay the bills."
Everyone was delighted.
Taoist Priest Kunshan looked at Shopkeeper Yu, then at the abbot and sneered: "But, look, is he awake? Can you cure him with just those few moves..."
Before he could finish his words, Shopkeeper Yu opened his eyes and struggled to stand up from the servant's arms.
He touched his head and face, and his voice returned to normal: "Hey? What happened to me just now?"
The servant held back and asked in surprise, "Boss, are you okay?"
Shopkeeper Yu walked back and forth a few steps, his steps were powerful and his voice was sonorous: "All right, completely fine, I feel endless comfort now, and I feel more relaxed than ever before."
Yan Ruyu: "..."
This deserves a "Best Cooperation Award."
The Taoist priest from Kunshan was stunned.
The crowd around was boiling.
“You have to be a master.”
"The Master wins."
"Master, your Buddhist teachings are profound."
The abbot was very proud, and he put his hands together and said humbly: "Master, please fulfill your promise."
Taoist Priest Kunshan: “…”
Before he could say anything, the Qiu family's followers beside him became anxious.
"no!"
"This silver cannot be given."
The abbot remained silent—even without him saying anything, some people would naturally object.
Some people shouted angrily: "Why do you say no?"
"I'm willing to accept the loss. This is a bet between the Taoist priest and the master. Who do you think you are?"
The attendant stamped his feet in anger: "Just because the silver was given by me."
The servant immediately retorted: "So what if you gave it to the Taoist priest? You gave it to the Taoist priest, so it belongs to the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest made a bet with the master, why do you care so much?"
"Master, you are not going to go back on your word in front of so many people, are you?"
Taoist Priest Kunshan was also confused and had not yet recovered from the fact that Shopkeeper Yu had regained consciousness.
What the hell? Just by taking a photo, Shopkeeper Yu went from looking like a dying fish to being alive and kicking?
How is this going!
When he heard the servant ask him if he was going to go back on his word, he subconsciously denied it.
"of course not……"
The servant snatched the purse from his hand and said, "That's all right, isn't it?"
The money bag was handed to Shopkeeper Yu, who held it high: "Everyone, please bear witness that I will never covet a penny. I will count the money in front of you."
Everyone cheered.
“No, no,” the objections from the Qiu family’s followers were swallowed up.
No one paid any attention to him.
He tried to grab it, but was tripped by the servant without leaving a trace.
Yan Ruyu's eyes fell on the money bag and she felt that the follower's reaction was a little abnormal.
The money had already been given, so why was he so anxious? He insisted on not letting the Taoist give the money bag to Shopkeeper Yu. Was there something fishy going on?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Shopkeeper Yu had already opened his purse and took out the silver inside.
Just by taking it, Shopkeeper Yu was stunned, and those who could see it clearly from a close distance were also confused.
"This... this is not silver."
"It's a big clod of dirt."
"What do you mean? How can silver turn into mud?"
"Don't mention it, the shape is quite similar."
"It took a lot of effort to find the soil, make the mud, shape it, and dry it. It took a lot of effort to make this mud silver."
"Is this how the Qiu family thanks the Taoist priest for saving their lives?"
Everyone was talking about it.
Qiu Keshi was listening in the carriage and was so embarrassed that he almost lost face.
Shopkeeper Yu was surprised and tried hard not to laugh: "I say, Taoist priest, do you have the ability to turn mud into silver? Show us?"
Everyone laughed.
Taoist Priest Kunshan was also unhappy. He knew that this was a trap and that no one would really give him the money, but he had to do something similar just for show. What would be wrong if they really gave him the money? It was not like he would not return it.
It's embarrassing to deal with these mud lumps, and it makes him lose face as well.
So, he didn't say anything.
Shopkeeper Yu was laughing, and his expression suddenly changed: "I understand!"
He pointed at the Taoist priest and glared at the Qiu family followers: "You are in the same group!"
This shout startled the Taoist priest and his followers, and Qiu Ke Shi was also startled.
Taoist Priest Kunshan seemed a little guilty: "What do you mean? What group?"
Manager Yu said angrily, "Are you going to kill me? Then my farm can be given to the Qiu family."
The Taoist priest's heart skipped a beat. This guy was really smart and guessed half right.
He was helping the Qiu family to seize the farm, but he didn't intend to kill anyone.
He didn't want to get involved in any deaths. He just wanted to set up a trap to cheat some money.
"No, don't talk nonsense."
The abbot spoke at the right time: "Amitabha, what this Taoist priest said about exorcising evil spirits is really beyond my comprehension."
"Just now the evil was not eliminated and someone almost died. Taoist priest, shouldn't you explain it?"
Taoist Priest Kunshan said with a stiff face, "Why didn't it get rid of it? In my opinion, my medicine just took effect. It's you, old monk, who took advantage of me."
Shopkeeper Yu was about to retort, but the abbot stopped him.
Not only was the abbot not angry, but there was a hint of excitement in the depths of his eyes.
The Taoist priest Kunshan thought he had seen it wrong.
The abbot was waiting for him to say: "In that case, why don't you and I compete with each other and have a duel of wits, how about that?"
Taoist Priest Kunshan thought for a moment: "Fighting? Fighting what?"
The abbot looked calm, "Of course we are comparing whose magic is more profound. Didn't you say that you can eliminate evil and defend the righteous path? What a coincidence, I am the same. I don't know who is better, do you dare to compete?"
