Chapter 36: The Law of Peace in the World

Gu Zuo was stunned for a moment, suddenly awakened, his face felt hot, and he felt ashamed to the house. He reached into the basket, took out the copper coins, chased after him and stuffed the money back. The butcher tilted his head sideways and looked at Gu Zuo, nodded and turned around and left.

He stood until noon, when the maid's servant came out of the corner door, saw Gu Zuo, and shouted, "Why beg here? Let's go quickly!"

Gu Zuo said: "I'm not begging, I sell fish."

“Where is sold here?”

“…where should I go?”

"Sell it in the upper silence!"

"Uh..." Gu Zuo was embarrassed to say that Sili had to pay taxes.

"Wait...when will I catch the fish? Let's take a look..."

"morning."

"I'll see...how to sell it?"

"Two texts and one."

"This fish is not good, I want it for a penny... No? If you don't sell it, go to the store and don't block the door of our house! The master came back and peeled your skin! Will it be sold? OK... I'll pack it... Don't sell it here next time!"

Gu Zuo left the alley with a fish basket on his back and carrying six cents. He passed by a pancake shop. After hesitating for a moment, he bought a hot pancake with two cents and stuffed it into his mouth.

After filling his stomach, he continued to go to the yamen to inquire. The officials in the gatehouse still greeted him with a smile, saying that Song Xingcao was back, but he was too busy today and asked him to come again tomorrow.

There was news better than no news. Gu Zuo was very excited and hesitated before leaving. This time he finally didn't want to give money to reward again. He left quickly as if he was running away in the expectant eyes of the doorman.

After a day, Gu Zuo finally met Song Xingcao. Song Xingcao continued to swear, saying, "Your documents, several books, have been read, please go through the process slowly. I can't open a document for a while."

"Didn't you say last time that you finished cooking the land and then publish the documents?"

"What I mean is to first return the land of the official, complete this step, and then talk about the documents. You are a student of the sect of cultivation and have a Taoist certificate, which is different from ordinary people. It is managed by the Dharma Secretary and the Dao Palace. First report to the county magistrate and the county magistrate to approve it, and then submit it to the Dharma Secretary and report it to the prefect, and then go to Longrui Palace for review. How difficult it is to do this layer by layer!"

“How long does it take?”

"It can be as fast as three or five months, and it can be as slow as one or two years. With this time, why not calm down and practice it? Besides, the county's Zhang County Wei and the county Chinese military officers attach great importance to your Huaixian Pavilion, and the future will be bright. If you give up your hometown and leave your hometown, do you think this life is better? Otherwise, you should think about it carefully?"

Gu Zuo was silent for a moment and said, "But I have no success in my practice in the county. If I continue to waste this, when will I have a day to make a comeback? There is no remaining income in the museum, my practice is shallow, and there is no recruitment in the county..."

Song Xingcao said: "The county is peaceful, of course there is no conscript. Could it be that you still hope for chaos in the world? This way, you go back first, I will do what you can do here, and you will also think of ways to overcome it, okay?"

At this point, Gu Zuo could only bow and thank him: "I have a hard time killing Cao!"

Gu Zuo had no choice but to continue fishing and exchange money, and then went to the yamen to find out the news every now and then. He made up his mind to pester the other party to death.

When he heard that he went to Zhongsi to sell fish, Song Xingcao knew that Gu Zuo was beginning to bother with money, so he told the tax collectors in the household that it was not difficult for Gu Zuo to do it, but he should also pay attention to the degree. In short, it is necessary to master a good degree, so that Gu Zuo could make a living by selling fish, and not allow him to make enough money to make money as travel expenses. Several tax collectors had mastered the degree of this degree very well.

Song Xingcao informed Zhang Mo about Gu Zuo's fish selling, and Zhang Mo sighed: "It is really sad to have a great monk who has fallen into this field."

Song Xingcao rolled his eyes secretly and said, "The county court wants shame and doesn't want him to leave. What should I do if he is a young man? To be honest, I can't stand it anymore! Is it so protected to protect the sect inheritance of the county? At least it shows people a way out? In fact, after accepting his card tickets, he can go to southern Xinjiang to pursue a bright future, which is good for everyone."

Zhang Mo shook his head and said, "Don't think about his card tickets, protecting the sect's inheritance. This is the original words of Wen Zongjun, and it is also what Xue Taishou said."

Song Xingcao sighed, full of annoyance: "I would have known that I would have given him a high price."

Zhang Mo was very troubled about how to deal with Gu Zuo and Huaixian Pavilion. On the one hand, he hoped that Gu Zuo could leave Shanyin as soon as possible and not stagger in front of him, otherwise he might cause trouble for him one day. On the other hand, he had to worry about Wen Zhengjun's request to protect the inheritance of the sect. He thought for many days but couldn't find a way to have the best of both worlds.

When passing by Zhongsi, Zhang Mo saw the next scene, which made him figured out that the best of both worlds would be difficult to find in the short term. If he didn't make a decision, he would probably cause trouble for himself.

Gu Zuo was selling fish on the shop in the corner of Zhongsi. There was a butcher shop on the left and a fruit stall on the right. Gu Zuo, who was sandwiched in it, had completely integrated into the peddler's pawn from the outside. He could not tell that he was a monk at all, but he was a fish vendor with skillful movements.

A month of work has taught Gu Zuo how to proficiently cut fish. His fish cuts are clean and neat, like flowing water, and the sharp knives are rolling around in his hand for a few times. A fish completes all the steps such as removing scales, removing dirty, and removing bones. It is very beautiful. Therefore, there are always many people standing in front of his stall, watching the process of cutting fish.

Just after cutting two fish, the water was drawn to clean the fishing platform. Gu Zuo looked up and saw a man and a woman. Both of them knew each other. The man was from Dushan Sect and the woman was from Liulin Sect.

The monks almost never come to Zhongsi. It is obvious that they are just for him. Gu Zuo looked at them for a moment, lowered his head and continued to clean the fishing platform, and asked, "Senior Sister Luo... are you here to buy fish?"

Luo Xiandi frowned and said, "Gu Zuo, I didn't believe it when I heard someone say it, but I didn't expect it..."

Gu Zuo lowered his head and took out a fish from the fish basket next to him. He cut the fish in a few turns. He took out the fish's dirty and the bones. The remaining fish body remained in its original shape, and there was almost no change. He shoveled up the fish meat and bones, flew out in the air, and sent it into the buyer's basket. His wrist turned and his horns were inserted into the chopping board. With a buzzing sound, the fishing platform trembled slightly, which immediately attracted the audience to cheer.

Gu Zuo opened in one month and has become a scene in Zhongsi.

The Dushan Sect cultivator next to Luo Xiandi was Li Man. Li Man said coldly: "Gu Zuo, Senior Sister Luo talks to you well, why do you have this attitude?"

Gu Zuo washed the chopping board and whispered: "I have to do business."

Li Man said: "We are here today and we are talking about you! A great monk came to the store to sell fish. What's wrong with it? Didn't he slander me the Shanyin practice world? What do people from other counties think of us?"
