"Wu Zhi, you go out and find the other senior brothers, they have been missing you a lot all this time," the old monk said to Shao Nianqiang, who couldn't sit still.

Shao Nianqiang, who is still a teenager, came back to the temple like home this time, and saw so many familiar faces, he couldn't hold back for a long time, if it wasn't for Tang Lin and the old monk who hadn't seen him for a long time, he would have run out a long time ago.

"Then, Master, I'll go out first, and I'll come back to greet you later," Shao Nianqiang stood up very happily, and then turned around and ran out.

"Wu Zhi has been this kind of detached character since he was a child, and he has not caused trouble to Tang Shi during this time outside, right?" The old monk looked at Shao Nianqiang's figure running out, turned his head to look at Tang Lin, and asked with a smile.

"No, Xiao Shao is very good, a very honest child, he didn't cause me any trouble, on the contrary, he also gave me a lot of help," Tang Lin said quickly, this is the case, but even if it is not the case, Tang Lin can't say bad things about Shao Nianqiang in front of the old monk, which parent doesn't care for his own children, if he really says that, Tang Lin wants to get help from the old monk, it is impossible.

"It's good that it didn't cause you trouble," the old monk nodded, very satisfied with Shao Nianqiang's impression of Tanglin.

"That master, wood, we also want to go out for a walk, is that okay?" Lu Meiying hugged Qin Ru's arm and asked with some expectation.

Tang Lin didn't speak, leaving the decision to the old monk.

"Hehe, of course, you can walk around the place in this temple casually, if you want someone to show you the way, you can find a little monk to show you the way, I believe that with the appearance of a few female donors, it is still not a problem," the old monk said with a smile.

The old monk's words made Lu Meiying and several girls a little stunned, they had never seen a monk who spoke like this, which monk was not upright and full of upright words.

"Hehe, color is empty, empty is color, and the little monks have not been in the temple for a long time, and their concentration is still insufficient, and several female donors are also beautiful as flowers, and it is normal to be able to make people tempted, but they will not exceed the behavior, you can rest assured," the old monk quickly explained.

"Then you go, but don't go out of the temple, I won't be able to find you if you get lost," Tang Lin said to Qin Ru's three girls.

"Well, I know, don't worry, that master, we will be out of company," Qin Ru pulled Lu Meiying and the others to stand up, and after saying a salute to the old monk, they walked out, and soon there were some surprised voices.

"I'm sorry, master, a few of them are still playful, I hope they won't bring noise to the Buddhist Sect," Tang Lin said to the old monk.

"It's nothing, a few female donors look like fairies, and it's a very good thing to be able to make this quiet place have a little more immortal energy, isn't it?" the old monk said with a chuckle, and this kind of praise came out of the mouth of a monk, which also made Tang Lin a little surprised.

However, Tang Lin was surprised for a while, and quickly said to the old monk: "Thank you master for your compliment, but there are only one of them girls, so there is a lot of trouble, thank you master for your tolerance." ”

"It's a small thing," the old monk said with a smile to Tang Lin, stroking his beard.

"Master, in fact, I came here this time because I want to ask you to go out of the mountain to help," Tang Lin said to the old monk very respectfully after straightening up his expression.

"Oh, let's be specific, if I can help, I won't refuse," the old monk asked Tang Lin, but his expression was very calm, as if he already knew what was going to happen next.

"Uh......" Tang Lin thought that the old monk would say something like 'Well, I know everything, let's not talk about it for the time being, time is pressing, and we are talking slowly on the road'.

However, Tang Lin just nodded for a moment, and quickly said: "Master, in fact, I came here this time because I was planning to do some charity in a place called Xiaozi Town in Anyang Province, but ...... Maybe this is a bit disrespectful to Buddhism, I hope you still have a little bit of Haihan, master. ”

Tang Lin, who was speaking, suddenly stopped and apologized to the old monk.

"It doesn't matter, Master Tang, even if you say it, people speak freely in their hearts, respect and disrespect are not something that can be expressed in one or two sentences, as long as you have a Buddha in your heart, there is no disrespect," the old monk said very kindly.

"Thank you, Master for your understanding," Tang Lin said in thanks, and then continued with the above words, "But in this kid town, because of the long-term self-isolation, there is little communication with the outside world, so the villagers here are more superstitious, and they have a special belief in the feng shui pattern and the theory of ghosts and gods, which has reached the point of paranoia, which makes it impossible to implement a good thing for the people, so it is difficult for me to accept this feudal superstition." ”

"Believers will only choose to believe what they want to believe, and there is nothing about it, but the things that benefit the people should not be put on hold because of this kind of thing, which is indeed not good," the old monk nodded, and said with a slight evaluation, not paying much attention to the feudal superstition in Tang Lin's mouth.

"That's right, I talked to the local district governor in the local area, and his words gave me a little idea, but because I didn't have an expert in this area around me, I found Xiao Shao and asked him to help me connect with you, and then I was able to invite you out of the mountain to help the people of this side do this thing that benefits the people," Tang Lin looked at the old monk pleadingly, looking very sincere.

"What do you want me to do?" The old monk looked at Tang Lin with a smile, and did not say yes, nor did he say no.

"Master, Xiao Shao said that you know astronomy and geography, I think you must have a deep attainment in this area, I hope you can use your knowledge and ability to make the people in the town believe that rebuilding the school is the meaning of the gods they worship, and it is also the meaning of their ancestors, and then let them no longer obstruct our donations," Tang Lin said to the old monk that this idea was the method that Tang Lin came up with in the last sentence that the district governor said to him, some things can be solved from a different angle when they are irreversible, and it may become very easy.

The reason why people are reluctant to accept the donated school building is because they think that this is a good feng shui pattern and cannot be changed, but once they believe that this feng shui pattern can actually be changed and will not bring them any harm, then everything will fall into place.

"Of course, this is possible, and my Buddha also hopes that the people of the world can live a better life, whether they are his followers or not, but ......," the old monk changed his words, "but don't you think that it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish? Of course, a school can have a profound impact on this area, but in a short period of time, this kind of influence cannot be expressed, I look at your appearance, maybe you can get what you both need in another way." ”

"I don't know what the master said about this?" Tang Lin looked at the old monk with some expectation, in his eyes, he could see the wisdom in the old monk's body, as well as the ability to perceive the world.

"Do you know why those female benefactors went out just now?" the old monk asked Tang Lin.

"The scenery here is so beautiful, so a few of them want to go out to see the surrounding scenery and pay homage to the Buddha statues here," Tang Lin said, and soon asked thoughtfully, "Master, do you mean to let me transform Xiaozi Town into a scenic spot, and then let other people travel to Xiaozi Town as tourists, and slowly drive the concept of people in this place, as well as the economy of this area?"

Tang Lin thought, the more he thought about this method, the more feasible it became, after he walked around the kid town for a short time, the original ecological environment there was indeed beautiful, and it would be a very good idea to transform it into a primitive tourist attraction.

"Well, Master Tang Shi is really smart, and when you think about it, you can think that the old man can't do it without admiration," the old monk said very heartily.

"What is there, I only thought of it after the master mentioned it," Tang Lin was a little embarrassed by the old monk's praise, but he admired the old monk's wisdom in his heart, and after saying this, he was able to think of such a way.

But soon, Tang Lin had a deeper understanding of the old monk's horror, according to the old monk's performance just now, he seemed to have known what Tang Lin wanted, and also knew the situation in the kid's town, including the beautiful scenery there, etc., otherwise he wouldn't have said so.

A bare place without any scenic spots, as long as people with a little brain, will not suggest to build a scenic spot there, and the scenic spot built on the original basis is the most ideal scenic spot.

Tang Lin didn't believe that the old monk was a brainless person.

"It's just that how to make the people there accept these changes, everything still needs to be bothered by you, Master," Tang Lin said to the old monk.

"For the benefit of the people, the old man naturally does his best," the old monk said to Tang Lin.

After that, the two chatted casually, in the chat, the old monk did not put the Buddha's teachings and other words on his lips, every time Tang Lin had some questions such as asking for advice, they chatted very often, but it also benefited Tang Lin a lot, as for Tang Lin, he occasionally said something about Shao Nianqiang outside, and he could see that the old monk was still more concerned about Shao Nianqiang's affairs.

Everything is progressing very well, and after a long time, the three girls, Qin Ru, Lu Meiying and Chen Pei, under the leadership of Shao Nianqiang, walked in happily.

At night, the Songshan Temple had less voices from pilgrims and more murmurs from chanting scriptures, which made Tang Linben's heart become a little impetuous because of his position, and he soon quieted down.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Tang Lin and the others got up early in a refreshed mood.

"It seems that all the donors had a good rest last night, so the old man can rest assured," the old monk sat in the dining hall and said to Tang Lin and the others opposite.

"Thank you, Master, you have benefited a lot from staying here for one night," Tang Lin said very respectfully, it was a rare opportunity to be able to cultivate in such a Buddhist pure place for a day, Tang Lin knew that he had picked up a big bargain.

"If Lord Tang likes it, you can often come here to stay overnight, which has a very good effect on the spirit in your body," the old monk said to Tang Lin with a smile, which made Tang Lin a little confused, but he could still hear the friendliness in the old monk's tone, and after thanking the old monk a little, everyone started breakfast.

The breakfast in the temple was very simple, porridge and steamed buns, but Tang Lin and the others ate very fragrantly, perhaps because of the need for food after a day's fatigue yesterday.

Breakfast was quickly eaten, and the old monk found the deputy abbot of the temple to explain some things, and then began to pack his luggage and prepare to go down the mountain with Tang Lin.

"Mu, shouldn't you be a little more interesting when you come to someone to do something like this?" Qin Ru suddenly pulled Tang Lin over and asked Tang Lin.

"Huh?" Tang Lin was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and said, "Ouch, look at my brain, this has been stunned by the affairs of Xiaozi Town, I have forgotten this stubble, but we came out this time, and we didn't bring any gifts." ”

"Stupid, of course the temple is to donate some incense money, you can bring money, and others won't accept you if you bring gifts!" Qin Ru said to Tang Lin.

"Yes, yes, my wife is right, I'll ask if I can transfer money," Tang Lin said flatteringly, but the implication was that not only did I not bring a gift when I went out this time, but I didn't even bring cash.

"This ......" Qin Ru also realized that she seemed to be thinking a little too much.

"Xiao Shao, come here," Tang Lin summoned Shao Nianqiang.

"Mr. Tang, is there something wrong?" Shao Nianqiang asked Tang Lin very happily, and when he returned to the temple, he was like an innocent child, with a very innocent smile on his face all the time.

Although it is a little inappropriate for Innocence to be used on a big boy, it is no longer suitable for Shao Nianqiang now.

"Well, it's true, this time I came here, I didn't bring any gifts, I didn't bring much cash, but I want to do something for the temple, I don't know what I should do?" Tang Lin asked Shao Nianqiang.

"Oh, that's the problem," Shao Nianqiang nodded, looked at Tang Lin and replied, "Actually, Mr. Tang, you can pay for sesame oil by card in our temple, what age is this, what kind of pos machine and other things, our temple is also prepared, you also saw the location here yesterday, if the average pilgrim brings so much money up, it is not easy to be crushed by the money halfway." ”

"Is this okay?" Tang Lin was very surprised and looked at Qin Ru, who was also surprised, they rarely visited the temple, but it was the first time that they knew that the monks in the original temple were also able to keep up with the pace of the times.
