1371 The Four are empty

Shaolin Temple is known as the world's first temple, has a history of thousands of years, has given birth to countless masters, strange people, since ancient times in China occupies a very important position.

Shaolin Temple in the Tang Dynasty to carry forward, because of the "thirteen monks" to help the Tang Dynasty meritorious, by the Tang Taizong reward, there are more than 10,000 acres of land, more than 5,000 pavilions, even the monks in the temple are also called monks, the status of the people has always been very high.

Even in the Ming Dynasty, many times to help the government to suppress bandits, anti-Japanese, can be described as a great achievement, the imperial court many times to build a monument, a workshop, repair the hall, in the martial arts world of the authority has also been established, since ancient times there is the world martial arts out of Shaolin, Shaolin kung fu a world said.

It's just that in modern times, with the emergence of various high-tech and guns, the force has gradually declined, and the number of monks has become fewer, and in the eighties and nineties, the Shaolin Temple even reached the point where it could not continue to operate. As the old saying goes, every troubled times must have heroes come out, and it was at this time that the abbot of Shi provoked the beam, took the lead in registering the Shaolin Temple as a company, and transformed it into a tourist attraction, welcomed tourists from all over the world, solved the problem of food and clothing, and began to develop all aspects of the Shaolin Temple, so that the Shaolin Temple returned to the prosperous situation of the past.

In this matter, Abbot Shi can be said to have made great contributions.

Of course, because Abbot Shi is a little plump, the people will inevitably make some malicious ridicule of him, thinking that he is taking the opportunity to fatten himself. In fact, as long as you know him and come into contact with him, you will know that he is a real wise man, and it is not something that ordinary people can accomplish to save the decaying Shaolin Temple with his own power!

Shaolin Temple has a history of thousands of years, and I don't know how many hosts have been named, but this abbot will definitely be able to be famous through the ages.

Yes, that's what I say about him!

Because the Central Plains region is also the territory of the South Gate of the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce, I will inevitably have to contact this abbot Shi, who has come to him before and drank tea and chatted with him. Even if the underground forces in the Central Plains are under my control, Shaolin Temple does not belong to the underground forces, and the status of Shaolin Temple is very transcendent, and I dare not disrespect it, so the whole process is respectful and polite to the abbot.

Abbot Shi is the same for me, we belong to the model of respecting each other as guests, and the river water does not interfere with the well water, and I think that the last time we had a good conversation, I feel like a bosom friend.

So I think there should be no big problem with asking the abbot to release this time.

Shaolin Temple is now a big business, is a 5A-level scenic spot designated by the country, and is also one of the most lively scenic spots in China, basically every day is full of tourists. Many people complain that Buddhism is not pure and utilitarian, but in fact, Buddhism is also a human being, so you have to save it, and you have money to fill your stomach in order to purify all sentient beings, right?

So it's still the same sentence, I support the utilitarianization of Shaolin Temple with both hands and feet.

Last time I talked to Abbot Shi about this issue, Abbot Shi nodded and smiled, thanking me very much for my understanding.

This time, I took Zhao Hu, Cheng Yiyi and Qi Liuhu, and after coming to Shaolin Temple, I didn't stop at the front gate and went straight to the back mountain. Because I know that, except for special big people, Abbot Shi no longer stays at the front door, and often practices and meditates alone in the back mountain.

The back mountain is much more desolate, although the temple is not so much, it is not so new, fortunately it is quiet enough, visitors can not come here, and finally there is a little bit of pure taste of Buddhism.

It's just that the back mountain is not so easy to enter, and we were soon stopped by the monks guarding the mountain.

I folded my hands and said to the other party: "I am Zhang Long, the master of the South Gate of the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce, I met with Abbot Shi last time, please report it, and say that I have something to find him." ”

The monk guarding the mountain hurried to report the news.

After a while, the monk came back and made a "please" gesture to me: "Donor, please!"

A few of us headed back into the mountains.

After walking for more than two miles, there were always monks guarding us along the way, but they no longer stopped us. Soon, a dilapidated thatched house appeared in front of us, and there was a stream flowing in front of the house, and the bamboo forest rustled around, and I pointed to the thatched house and said, "Abbot Shi is there." ”

That's where we met last time.

A few of us walked across the small bridge and walked into the thatched house, and Abbot Shi was really meditating in the house, and after hearing the voice, he opened his eyes, folded his hands and said with a smile: "Master Zhang Long, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

I also hurriedly returned the salute and said that the abbot, I haven't seen you for a long time.

The room was very simple, with almost no modern equipment, only a few tables and a few cushions. Abbot Shi's body is a little obese, and it is quite difficult to stand up, and he only stands up with his hands on the ground, and even a layer of sweat on his forehead, which looks like he usually lacks exercise.

This is normal, although Shaolin Kung Fu is the best in the world, but not everyone in the temple practices martial arts, and the abbot does not necessarily have to be a master.

It is enough for a person like Abbot Shi to have thoughts, wisdom, mind, and ability.

I hurried over and helped him up.

Seeing Abbot Shi's embarrassment, Zhao Hu couldn't help it, and laughed out loud.

Abbot Shi wiped his sweat, folded his hands and said, "See you laughing!"

Zhao Hu couldn't help it even more, and laughed out loud.

This is really disrespectful to Abbot Shi, I quickly raised my leg and kicked Zhao Hu to tell him not to do this.

Zhao Hu also realized that he was out of shape, so he quickly covered his mouth, waved his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

"It's okay, I'll pour you tea. Abbot Shi took a few steps forward, and fell to the ground with a "poof".

I was taken aback, and quickly reached out to help him, and asked him what was wrong, and the abbot waved his hand and said, "I've been sitting for too long, and my legs are a little numb!"

"Mom!" Zhao Hu fell to the ground laughing, rolling around holding his stomach.

I'm really embarrassed, but I can't control Zhao Hu, he has always had this character, laughing when he wants to laugh, and angry when he wants to be angry. I had to apologize to Abbot Shi, saying that I was sorry, my friend was like this, he didn't have a father to take care of him since he was a child, so he was a bit wild and untamable.

Zhao Hu said angrily: "You don't have a father to care!"

I said, "I don't have a father." ”

Cheng Yiyi said with a black line: "You two are okay, you both grew up without a father and a young mother, don't say anyone." ”

Abbot Shi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, this benefactor is living thoroughly, life should be like this, laugh if you want to laugh, cry when you should cry, this is the real four are empty! I don't know the name and surname of this donor, I see that you are very wise, if it is convenient, you may be able to practice with me." ”

Zhao Hu immediately shook his head: "I don't want to be a monk, I have a wife!"

"It's okay to be a lay disciple. ”

"No, no, I love meat, and I'm very, and the six roots are not pure, I want to fight and kill all day long, you better choose someone else." ”

"It's okay, I can wait, you will come to me one day, you have a relationship with Buddhism, a relationship with Buddhism. ”

"Then you can't wait for me, I can't change the problem of eating meat. ”

"Monks who drink wine and eat meat have not been less than ever since ancient times. ”

"Anyway, it's not a monk. ”

Abbot Shi just smiled and stopped talking.

I introduced to Abbot Shi, saying who this is and who is that, and introduced Zhao Hu, Cheng Yiyi, and Qi Liuhu to him.

Abbot Shi looked at everyone and nodded one by one, and finally fell on Zhao Hu: "It looks like you are still related to Buddhism, and it's really a pity that you don't leave home......

"I don't!" Zhao Hu's head shook like a rattle.

Abbot Shi no longer persuaded us, let us sit first, he carried a bucket, walked to the door, put the bucket in the stream, took the bucket of water and came back to make tea for us. The tea brewed by the stream at the door is indeed full of fragrance and refreshing, and several of us are full of praise after drinking it.

Zhao Hu's focus is always different, he looked left and right, and said suspiciously: "Abbot Shi, there is nothing here, where do you usually go to the toilet?"

Abbot Shi said with a smile: "Heaven and earth are so big, where can I not go to the toilet?"

"It's going to stink!"

"No, isn't there a stream, it will wash away. ”

Zhao Hu looked at the teacup in his hand, then looked at the stream at the door, and rushed outside to vomit with a "wow".

Although Cheng Yiyi and Qi Liuhu and I didn't show it, our faces were also very ugly.

Abbot Shi said in a low voice: "I lied to him, in fact, there is a bathroom dozens of meters away." ”

A few of us breathed a sigh of relief.

Abbot Shi said faintly: "Who made him laugh at me just now......

Hey, it's revenge for a long time!

However, we don't think that Abbot Shi is narrow-minded, but that he is very interesting and has an ageless childlike heart.

While Zhao Hu was still vomiting outside, Abbot Shi asked me what happened to me this time?

I said, "Abbot Shi, do you remember what I told you last time about 'Vajra Arhat' Xiang Dali?"

Xiang Dali betrayed from Shaolin Temple, before I talked to Abbot Shi about this person, Abbot Shi waved his hand and didn't let me talk more, saying that he didn't want to talk about this person, it would dirty the pure land of Buddhism.

It's the same this time, as soon as I mentioned Xiang Dali, Abbot Shi's face darkened, and he said, "What's wrong with him?"

I said, "He recently ran to Qilu, and there was some friction between him and us, and I came here to borrow some warrior monks from you to deal with him." ”

Abbot Shi let out a soft "oh" and fell into deep thought.

I'm not in a hurry, waiting for him to think about it.

After a while, Abbot Shi suddenly stood up and said, "I'm sorry, I'll go to the bathroom." ”

I nodded and said okay.

Abbot Shi walked out, and we were still waiting for him.

"Old man, where are you going?" asked Zhao Hu, who was still vomiting at the door.

"I'm going to untie my hands. ”

"Didn't you say that the world is so big that you can go to the toilet anywhere?"

"I'm teasing you, the bathroom is in front. ”

"Hey, you ......" Zhao Hu called a depressed and helpless, usually he played others, but this time he actually asked others to play.

After a while, Zhao Hu suddenly shouted at the door: "Hey, old man, what are you running?" Zhang Long, come quickly, Abbot Shi has run away......
