Chapter 53: Unusual Behavior
After arranging where Tang Xiaobao lived, Lin Wenfeng called him aside and said to him: "Since you want to stay in Wenfeng Temple, Poor Dao thinks there are some things that should be told to you, after all, you have a different purpose from ordinary laymen. ”
When Tang Xiaobao heard this, he immediately sat there uprightly and listened to Lin Wenfeng's instructions.
"Every morning before five o'clock in the morning, you must get up and pack everything, and then go to the Sanqing Hall in front of you on time to read the scriptures;
After breakfast at half past six, if I don't have anything to do with you, you can clean up, chop wood, and of course learn to read, write, and so on
The time is up to you, but there is still time for the next four o'clock to read the scriptures.
This is what you have to do every day, I don't have too many rules, you just need to do what you should do every day;
You do this first, and I'll talk about the rest when I'm satisfied, and it's useless to tell you now. ”
After speaking, Lin Wenfeng threw a bunch of scriptures to Tang Xiaobao, then ignored him, and went back to the study to read and write.
Tang Xiaobao returned to his room and put down his book, sat on the bed in a daze, thinking about what Lin Wenfeng had just said, he had to get up at five o'clock, which was more uncomfortable than killing him.
He doesn't usually sleep until one or two o'clock in the afternoon.
Looking at the pile of books that he didn't know what to talk about, it made him feel that the future was bleak.
Forget it, do one step at a time, bury his head under the pillow and start to sleep, yesterday because he didn't sleep well, his head is still groggy now.
Nothing to say all night...
The next morning, at four o'clock and almost five o'clock, the sky was still dark, and Tang Xiaobao's mobile phone alarm rang, which was the fourth time it had sounded.
Reluctantly, he got dressed and sleepwalked to the side of the water pipe, and when he turned on the faucet and touched the water flowing out, it made him feel excited, don't say it's really cold.
When you hold the cold tap water in your hands, take a deep breath and muster up the courage to put it on your face at once, it is called a heart-warming and heart-warming flying.
After making all the preparations, he came to the Sanqing Hall with the scriptures, and saw that Lin Wenfeng was already sitting there, so he quickly stepped forward and greeted: "The Tao is long in the morning." ”
Lin Wenfeng bowed slightly at him when he saw him coming, which was considered to have said hello.
He didn't know what to do next, so he looked at Lin Wenfeng next to him and learned him to sit down cross-legged and take out the scriptures that Lin Wenfeng gave him.
This scripture is called "Morning and Evening Homework Sutra", Lin Wenfeng has used it for many years, so it looks a little shabby, but there is nothing missing in the content.
Turning to a chapter of "Taishang Laojun Says Changqing Jingjing", Tang Xiaobao began to read: "Lao Jun said: The avenue is invisible, giving birth to the world, the avenue is ruthless, running the sun and the moon;
The avenue is nameless, and all things are nourished for a long time; I don't know its name, but the strong name is called the road.
The Husband: There is clarity and turbidity, movement and stillness, the sky is clear and turbid, and the sky is moving and quiet.
Men are clear and women are turbid, men are moving and women are quiet. Reduce the cost to the end, and give birth to all things.
The source of turbidity is clear, and the foundation of stillness is moving. People can always be quiet, and heaven and earth will return. ”
With the blessing of the three stone statues in the hall that had been reshaped by creation, Tang Xiaobao's impetuous heart gradually calmed down because he got up early, but because he didn't quite understand what the scriptures were talking about, he began to shake his head before half an hour came.
finally stayed up in this drowsy state until the end of the morning class, and when he saw Lin Wenfeng get up and stand up himself, he came to the courtyard with him to prepare breakfast, and when he saw that there was only a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickles, Tang Xiaobao was disappointed.
But what can be done, he didn't eat much yesterday, and if he didn't eat again, he suspected that he would really starve to death.
While eating, I remembered my days at home, if it wasn't for Lin Wenfeng next to me, maybe my two lines of tears would flow down unstoppably.
Lin Wenfeng quickly ended his breakfast, put away his dishes and chopsticks, and walked to the bamboo forest alone with his sword and began to practice swordsmanship.
Before leaving, he said to Tang Xiaobao: "Remember to clean up the bowl." ”
Tang Xiaobao nodded hurriedly, reassuring him that he would clean up.
When Lin Wenfeng came back from the bamboo forest after practicing, he found that Tang Xiaobao was missing, and at first he thought that Tang Xiaobao had gone back to bed and went to sleep.
But when he put down the sword in his hand, he saw Tang Xiaobao wearing a rag that he didn't know where to turn out as an apron, walking out with a broom, and saw Lin Wenfeng greet him warmly: "Dao Chang is back! thirsty or not, you wait, I'll pour you a glass of water." ”
Before Lin Wenfeng could react, Tang Xiaobao went into the kitchen and brought out a glass of water: "Dao Chief, you drink first, I see that there is not much firewood in the kitchen, I'll go get some." ”
After saying that, he took the axe and left.
"What's wrong with him?" Lin Wenfeng asked Lin Dalu, who was eating, he was still dead when he went out, why did he come back like a different person.
Lin Dalu shook his head and said, "I don't know, he washed the dishes and walked out not long after you left, and when he came back, he started cleaning inside and out, just like he was beaten now." ”
After listening to Lin Dalu's answer, Lin Wenfeng had no clue, could it be that what happened during the time he went out, what happened to make a person change so much.
Looking at the water glass in his hand, Lin Wenfeng shook his head.
After resting for a while, Lin Wenfeng called Lin Dalu to prepare to start the road construction business
Tang Xiaobao came back with firewood, and when he saw Lin Wenfeng and Lin Dalu going out with a back, he hurriedly asked, "Daoist, what are you going to do?"
Lin Wenfeng said: "We are going to build roads. ”
Tang Xiaobao immediately volunteered that he was also going to help, and as he spoke, he also carried the back on Lin Wenfeng's back to his own back.
Regardless of Lin Wenfeng's surprised eyes, he took the lead and walked out of the door.
These things were enough for Lin Wenfeng to figure out, but what happened next made him even more confused about what Tang Xiaobao thought.
When they came back in the afternoon and went to the Sanqing Hall to read the scriptures, Tang Xiaobao began to doze off in less than half an hour as in the morning.
But before he fell asleep, he slapped himself and used this method to regain his spirits.
Didn't you say you didn't want to come, even if it was for me to get my approval, you don't have to fight so hard, besides, you can learn it this way, and you can do it too comprehensively.
Although Lin Wenfeng was curious, he still didn't ask him why he did it.
I feel that he is only three days of enthusiasm, and when this momentum passes, he should be beaten back to his original shape.
In the evening, Tang Xiaobao finally quieted down, and it seemed that today's strange behavior had exhausted his physical strength.
Lin Wenfeng looked at Tang Xiaobao's closed door and sighed and said, "I don't know how many days you can hold on like this." ”
After speaking, he turned around and went back to his room to continue his practice.
