Chapter 412: Living in Hope [4]
After the two exchanged two polite sentences, Fang Zheng went straight to the topic: "Zen Master Xiaguang, Fang Zheng has something to ask Zen Master." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"Abbot Fangzheng just ask, if the poor monk knows, he must know everything. Zen Master Xiaguang said with a smile.
After thinking for a while, Fang Zheng asked, "In the southwest of the mountain, there is a river, the river is very wide, what kind of river is it?"
"That's the Dongjiang River, which originates from the Changbai Mountains, and is a confluence of several rivers, which is the widest in the area, but eventually it will converge into the Songhua River. Master Fangzheng, why are you asking this?" Zen Master Xiaguang was also a little curious.
Fang Zheng asked again: "In recent years, has there been a flood in the Dongjiang River?"
"Flood?" Zen Master Xiaguang fell into deep thought, and only after a while did he raise his head and say, "It hasn't happened in recent years, but twenty years ago, there was a flood there, and the flood engulfed several villages. However, at that time, the government had already warned in advance and transferred all the personnel, and the damage caused was not large. ā
"But someone is drowning?" Fang Zheng continued.
"That's too much, every year people don't listen to advice to go swimming, and every year a lot of people leave. Amitabha Buddha ...... "Speaking of this, Zen Master Xiaguang couldn't help but pronounce a Buddha name.
Fang Zheng nodded and said, "Zen Master Xiaguang, look at this." ā
Fang Zheng handed the leaflet to Zen Master Xiaguang, and then told Zen Master Xiaguang everything he saw, and finally asked, "Does Zen Master have an impression of this person? If the poor monk is not mistaken, he should live not far from here." ā
However, what made Fang Zheng helpless, Zen Master Xiaguang shook his head and said: "Poor monks are usually studying Buddhism, and there are not many opportunities to go out. The poor monk you mentioned didn't have any impression, and besides, when Lord Ruan Hai made a fuss, this matter had already spread, and I didn't hear anyone who knew him. Maybe he didn't come to the monastery before...... The girl in this portrait is not impressed by the poor monk. ā
When Fang Zheng heard this, it was also a little difficult, the last flood was twenty years ago, so long, even if Ruan Hai had relatives who died in that flood, it would not be twenty years...... In this way, Fang Zheng figured out whether Ruan Hai's daughter drowned by the water's edge while playing in the water, or the kind that did not see the corpse.
That's why Ruan Hai went into the water to look for it, and at the same time handed out leaflets on the shore to find people...... This explanation can be explained.
Coming out of the abbot's room of Zen Master Xiaguang, Fang Zheng scratched his bald head, and he found that this matter was really a bit troublesome. He knew too little about Ruan Hai, and too little could he express himself, which was indeed a problem.
At this time, the red boy ran over, pointed to the sky and said, "Master, you see that it is not early, should you take me to have a good meal?"
Fang Zheng just remembered, yesterday he promised to take the red boy to eat the Buddhist food of the Eight Classics, Fang Zheng wanted to see, this guy with a mouth, does he really like to eat this kind of dish, if he likes, Yizhi Temple can save a lot of food every year, so Fang Zheng smiled: "This is simple, go, take you to a big meal for the teacher!"
After saying that, Fang Zheng himself couldn't help but laugh.
When I came to the dining hall, a monk had already arrived, and I was eating quietly.
Fang Zheng asked the red boy to sit down, personally went to give the red boy two dishes and a soup, a big bowl of rice, and then put everything in front of the red boy with a smile on his face.
The red boy said unhappily: "Master, it's not that you don't know the skills of the apprentice, such a meal is enough to eat!"
He said kindly and kindly: "Pure heart, eat, if it is not enough, the teacher will give you a serving." ā
The red boy looked at Fang Zheng suspiciously: "Master, your expression reminds me of an animal. ā
"What animal?" asked Fang Zheng.
"Old fox. Red Boy said.
Founder: "......"
The red boy looked at the empty table in front of Fang Zheng and asked, "Master, why don't you eat?"
Fang Zheng clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, there are still a few rice balls in the meditation room, if you don't eat them again, they will be broken." It's a shame to waste, so let's eat the leftover rice balls for the sake of the teacher. Hurry up, eat, eat, and rest early. ā
"Master, why don't I believe you like this?"
Fang Zheng was speechless, as a master doing what he did, his own apprentices didn't believe it, and it was estimated that there would be no one left.
But the red boy said that no matter how much, he still wanted to eat, and he was also curious, this dish looks okay, green, the rice is white and crystalline, is it really so unpalatable......?
Fangzheng's eyes lit up......
The red boy took a bite, only feeling that the rice in his mouth tasted okay, and after taking another bite of the dish, the red boy turned around and ran out.
Fang Zheng said lightly: "Pure heart, it's shameful to waste, you waste a mouthful, and you will recite the scriptures for one night as a teacher." ā
The red boy's footsteps stopped abruptly, and he sat back with a sad and angry face, staring at Fang Zheng with his cheeks puffed out, and said, "Master, did you do it on purpose?
Fang Zheng rolled his eyes and said: "I didn't pit you as a teacher, you yelled for food, if you don't take the initiative today, you forgot about it as a teacher." Okay, Pure Heart, don't talk so much, eat while it's hot, finish eating, and go to bed early. ā
"I ......" the red boy scolded his mother very fragrantly, but considering the difference in strength, he gave up decisively, lowered his head, and looked at the food in front of him, he wanted to cry!
"Apprentice, you have a lot of food for the way of being a teacher, do you want to serve you some more?" Fang Zheng asked with a smile.
The red boy hurriedly lowered his head to eat, but he couldn't beat it, he couldn't scold, so he couldn't see it.
In fact, the food is not so unpalatable, but with contrast, it becomes unpalatable. It's like many people are used to eating the delicate flesh of wild river fish, and then eat feed fish, and they can't eat it at all.
On the way back.
"Boy, you run slowly!" Fang Zheng trotted all the way, but the red boy ran faster.
"No!" cried the red boy without looking back.
"Slow down for me! Don't go beyond the teacher! Hey, you're running faster and faster, you're going to be careless for the teacher!" Fang Zheng gritted his teeth and shouted, he hurry up, the red boy hurry up, this stinky boy runs so fast, of course Fang Zheng knows what he is doing! This is running back, I want to clean him in a pot! How can this work? Fang Zheng has been pointing to those rice balls for the past two days!
"Master, can you not cheat?" the red boy walked behind Fang Zheng with an aggrieved face, and shouted unwillingly.
"No, you can't. Fang Zheng replied without hesitation.
The red boy looked at the increasingly deep-skinned master and rolled her eyes...... Xin said: "Why did the Bodhisattva find me such a wonderful master! Those eminent monks of other people either turn around and comprehend the Dharma regardless of the world, or spend all day drinking and fake monks, but this one in front of me ...... Compassion for the heavens and mercy for others, more compassion for the heavens and people than anyone else, and playing the scoundrel, more than the bear children......
