"Master, have you been peeking at Widow Li taking a shower again?"

"No, absolutely not! I swear in the name of Buddha!"

"Master, are you going to steal the beggar chicken again?"

"Well, how can you, a kid, be called stealing? Is that good to borrow?"

“…”

In a dilapidated temple, a young monk in his twenties looked at the old monk who was wiping his mouth and didn't know what to say. His bright and black eyes were filled with a look called "I hate the iron but not the steel".

The little monk Lin Xi sighed and said helplessly: "Master, you are almost thrown away my old face."

When the old monk heard this, he glared at him and said, "What nonsense? Your face is obviously a minor face, not an old face."

Lin Xi shook his head, it was really impossible to deal with his rogue master.

His master did not look like a monk at all. He had never abide by any of the ten commandments of monks, and after he was eight years old, Lin Xi began to help his master clean up the mess.

"Little monk, your master is drunk again on the roadside."

"Little monk, your master was caught peeking at Widow Li in a bath."

"Little monk, your master has not paid back the money you owe in our restaurant last month. What do you think?"

...

"By the way, I've found a job for you. You're ready to go down the mountain." The old monk touched a bottle of wine from behind the ruined temple Buddha statue, took a sip and said to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi nodded and agreed.

Since he was 16 years old, the old monk often helped him find work. Whether he was doing rituals at the funeral home or working as a gunman in a martial arts competition for a large temple, he took on the work according to the old monk's wishes and completed it successfully.

Over the years, if Lin Xi hadn't been taking care of work everywhere, the old monk would probably not be able to afford wine, let alone eat meat.

But what’s annoying is that Lin Xi has never received any reward!

All the work was found by the old monk for him, and the money was given to the old monk directly. It was not that Lin Xi had not asked the old monk for money, but the old monk immediately browned and cried, and asked Lin Xi with a resentful face: "I'm fortunate to have worked hard to pull you up, but you actually asked me for money? You are still young and don't know how to manage finances. I'll save it for you first, and get a wife for you when you grow up."

Although Lin Xi was a monk, he was able to get married and get married without a Dharma name. Such a person is the so-called lay disciple.

Whenever this happened, Lin Xi was speechless and didn't know what to say. He wanted to beat the old monk in front of him, but he knew that even ten of them tied up with him was not the old monk's opponent.

"Master, where are you going to do the ritual this time?" Lin Xi packed up his clothes, packed them in a small snakeskin bag and asked the master.

The old monk was already a little drunk, and he staggered his body next to the Buddha statue in the ruined temple, and then said in a confused manner: "This time it's not a ritual..."

"It's not a ritual? What is that? Helping the little gang fight?" Lin Xi asked in confusion.

The tasks he took on are all kinds of strange things, from participating in national martial arts competitions to helping primary school students fight, all of his work scope.

"No, no, no, this time it's not a fight..." The old monk was a little unsteady and sat on the ground swaying.

Lin Xi looked at the drunk master and felt the urge to run away after stealing money. However, he knew that if he wanted to steal his master's money without knowing it, such a person might not have been born yet!

Helping the old monk up, Lin Xi activated a ray of true energy and slowly moved along the old monk's meridians.

After a while, the old monk woke up slowly.

The old monk who woke up picked up the wine bottle, raised his head and drank a big mouthful of wine, and fell drunk again.

"Damn, master, can you respect the fruits of other people's labor? I finally woke you up!" Lin Xi shouted speechlessly in the old monk's ear.

But the old monk was drunk and could not wake him up.

When Lin Xi was destroyed again, he was already sweating profusely. The old monk was not an ordinary person. It was a hundred times more difficult for his true energy to move forward in his body than in an ordinary person's body.

"Uh, it's time to have breakfast?" the old monk woke up and said in a daze.

Lin Xi couldn't bear it anymore and slapped the old monk's bald head and shouted: "Master, haven't you told me what this mission is yet?"

"Task? What mission?" The old monk turned his head in a dizzy manner, just as he saw Lin Xi's eyes that were almost splattering fire.

The old monk shrank his neck and did not dare to look at Lin Xi. He immediately changed his words and said, "What task is coming? Oh, I'm going to be a bodyguard."

Lin Xi's expression calmed down a little, and he asked, "Time, place, who should I protect?"

The old monk touched his bald head for a long time, with a sad face.

Lin Xi knew that his master had forgotten all the details of this task.

The old monk patted his bald head, touched a piece of greasy paper from his arms, handed it to Lin Xi and said, "It's all on this, look at it yourself."

The old monk just finished eating beggar chicken and wiped his mouth with his own task order?

Lin Xi opened the note with disgust, which read: Zhongzhou, Xu Renzhong, followed by a string of phone numbers.

Zhongzhou? Lin Xi didn't expect that the city we were going to this time was Zhongzhou, known as the Magic City.

But it doesn't matter.

After knowing the location and character, he reached out to the old monk and opened his mouth and spit out a word that made the old monk extremely scared: "Money!"

The old monk hurriedly covered his crotch and looked at Lin Xi and said, "I have no money."

"money!"

"I still have a debt to pay it back."

"money!"

"I still need to prepare some pension money."

"money!"

“…”

The old monk felt ache, and reached into his crotch, took out five red tickets from his crotch, and handed them to Lin Xi reluctantly.

The moment Lin Xi took the money, he vaguely saw the old monk staring at the five red bills, and there was still a hint of moistness in his eyes.

Lin Xi was unbalanced. He was not so excited even after getting the money. Why are you more uncomfortable than me?

Then, tears flowed out of Lin Xi's eyes and he held the five red puppets tightly in his hands.

Lin Xi also imitated the old monk and put these five red tickets in his pocket in his crotch.

"Master, let's go back." Lin Xi put away his tears and said happily to the old monk.

"Well, go back, just go back," the old monk said, and one of his hands was counting the remaining banknotes in his pocket, and his crotch was also rolling, as if he was doing something bad.

"Hmm?" The old monk suddenly remembered something and corrected the error in Lin Xi's words: "It's not that you can go back if you go, it's that you can't go back if you haven't completed the task."

"What?" Lin Xi suspected that something was wrong with his ears. How to complete the task of being a bodyguard? Tell me if the task is completed when the employer dies? If the employer is threatened by others, should he continue to perform it?

"Master, tell me the truth, how long has it been agreed with your employer?" Lin Xi asked with a serious expression.

The old monk scratched his head and said uncertainly: "It seems to be... twenty years?"

"..." Lin Xi looked up at the sky, looking desperate: "Master, have I been sold by you?"
