    Chapter 18: Gu the Great Liar

    So he stepped forward and said to Gu Yun, “Master, in these four words, fire is fire, reed is wood, hoe is gold, and field is earth, so where is water”

    Gu Yun smiled faintly and said, “May I ask Master, when did the straw raincoat get worn”

    The young monk was stunned, and this time was truly speechless.

    After a long delay, he smiled awkwardly and said, “The施主 is good at what he does. If …… if this sign is really as the mage said, then it is also a good thing, and the poor monk is sincerely happy for the female mage.”

    Gu Yun smiled and said, “Signs are interpreted by people. The Buddha said: to look at a mountain is a mountain, to look at a mountain is not a mountain, to look at a mountain is a mountain again, it’s just a difference in perspective and process, Master needn’t care.”

    The young monk’s face grew more and more surprised, and he took another closer look at the teenager who looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old.

    Then he laughed mockingly, folded his hands, and said heartily to Gu Yun, “Good insights, poor monk, I’m ashamed to be inferior.”

    Gu Yun returned the salute and then asked, “By the way, there is something I would like to ask, I don’t know if your temple’s abbot, Master De Shan, is around, I would like to talk to him if I am fortunate.”

    The young monk immediately said, “I’m not hiding anything from the master, the abbot has gone out to travel in the clouds.”

    “So when do you think you’ll be back?”

    “It’s hard to say, his old man walks wherever he goes and is spontaneous.”

    Gu Yun couldn’t help but frown when he heard this, because counting De Shan should have been 105 years old, normally a 105 year old man would be lucky to be able to stand, and he was even able to rely on his two legs to go cloud traveling

    This guy turned out to be so old and strong ah, no wonder in the dream how many times he died he did not bring death!

    But not willing to make a trip for nothing.

    So he said to the young monk, “Young Master, can you leave a contact information, if the Abbot comes back you let me know. Also, please introduce me to him, and say that I do greatly admire him.”

    The young monk hesitated, and then said, “Alright, the poor monk also feels that the monk has a destiny with our Buddha, I think the abbot will be very willing to see you, then let’s add a wechat, and I’ll notify you when the master comes back.”

    The young monk’s words were true, he knew the Abbot’s temperament, the Abbot might not meet those high officials who couldn’t talk to each other, but a young man with enlightenment like Gu Yun, he should be very willing to meet.

    Gu Yun begged to differ, and hurriedly took out his cell phone to exchange WeChat with the monk.

    This time it was Su Xiao’s turn to be shocked.

    This guy’s so good at pulling strings, he’s got a matchmaker in just a few words.

    The young master looked so sure of himself, it was hard to believe that he could really let Gu Yun meet Master Deshan.

    What is this guy …… head made of, how do you feel in his eyes, there is nothing that can not be done

    ……

    After the two of them came out of the side hall, Su Xiao asked Gu Yun, “The signatures you just interpreted for me, they were all made up off the shelf, weren’t they”

    Gu Yun said in a serious manner, “Of course it’s true, I have studied it.”

    “Che, lying, that master is there everyday, would he not know the correct solution.” Su Xiao laughed softly, “But after you finished, I feel more comfortable in my heart. You’re right, the sign is solved by people, things are in people’s hands, if I study hard and take the exam properly, then the result might be what you said.”

    Gu Yun smiled, “Looks like you’re not stupid yet.”

    Su Xiao cupped her pink fist and made a gesture to hit it.

    Said, “Do you think I’m really stupid you tricked my mom into giving you free rent one minute, and then you came and tricked me out of money I gave you that you didn’t give to my mom, don’t think I don’t know.”

    Gu Yun said with a smile, “I told Auntie to pay the rent ah, it’s Auntie herself who doesn’t want it. Besides, I was entrusted by her to watch over you, which is technically a reward, how can it be considered cheating”

    “Then you cheated me out of money again” Su Xiao said indignantly, “You big liar!”

    “I took your money, is not did not tell your mom about your private meeting with Zhao Cheng that is also based on the two sides of the agreement of the reward ah, how can it be considered a cheat”

    “You!” Su Xiao found herself running out of words, and even surprisingly, she vaguely felt that this asshole’s words made a lot of sense.

    But I’m so angry. Why does he always have the upper hand?

    He couldn’t help but reach out his catkin-like hand to pinch Gu Yun’s arm.

    “Who had a private meeting to make you talk nonsense!”
