"Knock knock...... Knock knock. ”

After knocking on the temple door, there was a burst of movement in the temple.

"Here, wait a minute. ”

The sound of Fakong came from inside the temple, and immediately after, the sound of footsteps came from far and near,

"Click!"

The deadbolt behind the door was removed, and the heavy wooden door was opened inward.

"Benefactor?"

Fakong's figure appeared at the door, and after seeing clearly that the person who came was Lian Ge, he was a little surprised,

"Please come in, please come in, please come in......"

With that, Fakong stepped out of the way.

"Sorry. ”

Hearing this, Lian Ge glanced at Monk Fakong and said.

"Don't bother, don't bother......" Monk Fakong replied quickly.

Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled and stepped into the temple.

"Crunch ......"

Fakong stretched out his hand and closed the somewhat heavy wooden door again, as he continued towards Lian Ge

"Originally, Lian Shi mainly came after a while, but I didn't expect the little monk to return to the temple a few days ago, and the Lian Shi master came......"

Lian Ge nodded, listening to the Fakong monk narrate, while looking at the temple of seeing sex.

As seen outside the temple, the temple is not very large.

When you enter the temple gate, there is a courtyard, and there are several trees planted on both sides of the courtyard, and the branches cover the small half of the courtyard.

Facing the courtyard is a large hall with statues of gods, and on the left side of the main hall, there is an open door that seems to lead to the backyard.

“...... In fact, there is nothing to visit, and the temple is not a famous temple, and the whole temple is just such a big hall.

The door next to it used to be the backyard, and there were several meditation rooms on the right, where the little monk and the little monk lived together......"

As he spoke, Monk Fakong patted his head,

"By the way, the little monk master is still picking vegetables in the backyard, donor Lian, wait a minute, I'll go and tell my master that you're here. ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Lian Ge to answer, Monk Fakong quickly ran into the backyard.

Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at the hall in front of him again, and sat down on a stone slab next to the courtyard, under a fruit tree.

Followed by

There was a sound in the backyard, and it sounded in Lian Ge's ears as the wind cleared.

“...... What does the little monk do with frizz?"

"The old monk, the little monk is a glimpse of his nature, he does whatever he wants, what is frizzy. ”

"Little monk, I see that you are not reciting Buddhist scriptures, but Tao Te Ching. ”

"What's wrong?"

"It's good, it's good, what's the matter, why don't you hurry up?"

"Master, the Lian Shi I told you about earlier is here. ”

......

At this point, the voices coming from the backyard suddenly fell silent.

Immediately after, the old man's voice sounded again,

“...... Then don't hurry up and make tea for people. ”

"Isn't this a reminder to Master? After all, you are the abbot of the Temple of Nature. ”

"Now you know, go ahead, the teacup is in the kitchen, and the hot water is also boiling, go make a pot of tea." ”

The voice fell, and footsteps rang out from the backyard again.

Lian Ge also stood up from the stone slab.

Immediately afterwards, an old man who was still holding a handful of leeks in his hand, wearing a gray monk's robe, and rolled up his sleeves, walked out of the backyard.

The old man's eyebrows and beards have turned white, and the skin on his face has sag, covered with age spots, but his spirit is still shining, and his hands and feet are also very nimble.

If it weren't for the bare crown of his head, the old man would have been more like an old farmer in the field than a monk.

Raising his head, the old man looked at Lian Ge, his cloudy eyes paused, and then smiled kindly at Lian Ge,

"Where did the donor come from?"

The old man looked at Lian Ge and asked with a smile.

"I came from afar, I want to ask for a meal, I don't know if it's convenient. Lian Ge looked at the old man and replied with a smile,

"Convenient, convenient......" the old man replied with a smile, then turned around and put the leek in his hand on the front steps of the main hall,

Patting the dust on his hands, the old man walked towards Lian Ge,

"Although the temple is not open to foreign pilgrims, and it does not break the fast, but since it is the cheap donor who comes, the poor monks are still willing to eat a meal. ”

The old man walked to Lian Ge's side and paused again,

"Please be seated. ”

As he spoke, Lian Ge and the old man sat down casually under the two stone slabs under the tree.

"The poor monk has not yet formally consulted the benefactor for his title. ”

"Lian Ge. ”

"Cheap donor. The old monk nodded, "Did you go smoothly on the way?"

It's like chatting, the old monk asked.

Lian Ge looked at the old monk and paused slightly,

Turning his head, he looked into the courtyard and nodded,

"It went well. I just took the liberty of coming here and bothered me. ”

"The incorruptible donor can come to the small temple, and the small temple is full of brilliance. Just like the Buddha came in person, the poor monk was too late to be happy, so why bother. Seeing that the old monk shook his head,

Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at the old monk again and didn't answer again.

At this time, Monk Fakong also walked out of the backyard with two cups of tea.

"Come, Lord Lian, drink tea. ”

Fakong handed the cup of tea in his hand to Lian Ge first, and then handed another cup of tea to his master.

"The barren mountain and small temple have nothing to entertain, only a cup of home-fried coarse tea, and I hope that the donor will not mind. Seeing the old monk said aloud.

Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

“...... Before, Fakong told the poor monk that he had met a real person, and the poor monk still had some doubts. Seeing that the old monk turned his head and said to Lian Ge,

"So, Master, did you think the little monk was talking before?"

Before Lian Ge could answer, the Fakong monk on the side said loudly,

Hearing this, the old monk looked at Fakong, took a sip of the teacup, and said,

"You've eaten all the meat, so it's not strange to make another offence. ”

"Master, you're in love. Monk Fakong replied, "The so-called seeing nature to become a Buddha, without a glimpse of nature, how to become a Buddha." ”

"Fakong, go and fry the leeks. ”

"Master, you have broken the vows. ”

Hearing this, the old monk didn't speak, just looked at Fakong,

After a few moments, Monk Fakong turned around, picked up the leeks placed on the steps, and went back to the backyard.

The donor smiled. Seeing the old monk, he turned his head and said to Lian Ge,

Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head,

Turning his gaze, Lian Ge looked at the old monk,

"Monk Fakong told me before, your temple has a method of face-to-face that has been passed down from generation to generation, and you should be able to see the Zen master if you want to, I don't know if you see anything?"

Hearing this, the old monk shook his head,

"Fakong is talented and intelligent, quite wise, and the law of face is still above the poor monk, since he can't see it, the poor monk can't see it...... However, dare to ask the donor, does he have mana?"

As he spoke, the old monk's eyes showed a nervous look for the first time.

Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at the old monk and did not answer directly, but once again swept the old monk with the eyes of heaven,

Under the eyes of the sky, although the old monk has no mana in his body, he has a deep spiritual essence.

According to the 'Cultivation Foundation', it is already on the verge of mana that is about to breed.

Looking at the old monk, Lian Ge slightly emphasised his eyes and nodded,

"It's true that it's a bit meager mana, but ......" Lian Ge retracted his gaze and looked at the courtyard in front of him,

"Seeing the Zen Master, you should be fast. ”

Hearing this, there was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the old monk, and then he was a little gloomy,

Shaking his head, he saw that the old monk also looked at the courtyard in front of him and said

"I don't know what you see, Lord Lian, but the poor monk has been like this for thirty years. ”
