Chapter 203: Master Flower Street
The two received the money from the woman in yellow, and walked forward for a long time, before Xinghui suddenly realized: "Abbot, I understand." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Su Wen nodded: "It's good to understand." ”
Whatever he understands, it's his own gain.
The two of them walked out of the southwest of the city with the sound of tin tin swaying with their Zen sticks, and traveled along the main road in a southwesterly direction.
Occasionally, a car stopped next to the two of them on the road and rolled down the window: "Hey, two mages, will you give you a ride?"
"Thank you, donor, the two of us can just walk. Su Wen smiled and thanked him.
After all, even if the two of them only spent a day and a night outside, they looked like they were in the dust. Ordinary people have great respect for this kind of ascetic.
The two of them just walked forward step by step, and when the sun came up, they began to sweat, and when they passed by the river and the creek, they would come forward to wash their faces, and when they met people, they would ask for some water to drink.
At noon, he found someone to make a relationship, and after a meal at someone's house, he asked and recited a scripture to someone. Although the other party didn't understand, he just listened quietly with a smile.
I didn't rush to the city that night, so I just found a little sheltered place in the wild to spend the night.
The so-called cover is just a sheltered corner, and there is no cover at all.
In this wilderness, you can look up and see the vast starry sky, and listen to the sound of the wind blowing the leaves in your ears, but there is a different feeling. Although you can see such a scene in the temple, the atmosphere in the temple is somewhat solemn, and the mood is completely different when you see the same scenery here.
When I woke up in the morning, there was a lot of dew on my body and my clothes were a little damp. If ordinary people are like this, they must be sick for a few days.
It didn't take long to get out of Lu Province that morning, turning all the way to the south, and when the road ahead was bypassing in front of the mountain, Su Wen took out his mobile phone and glanced at the map, choosing to go over the mountain.
It's just that the two of them haven't eaten since the morning, just drank some water, but fortunately there are a lot of red and black mulberries on the mountain, which are ripe at this time, and they taste sweet and sour.
The two walked halfway up the mountain, and saw that there were a lot of mulberries around, so the two found a flat place to rest for a while.
Su Wen sat down on the ground to rest, and it didn't take long for a butterfly to fall on him with its wings, and it seemed that the affinity on his body was even very fond of insects. When Xinghui ran back to pick mulberries, he saw Su Wen sitting there smiling, with two butterflies on his body, flying up from time to time and turning in front of Su Wen.
Even if I knew that there were many animals who liked to be close to Suwen, seeing this scene and feeling the harmony between Suwen and nature still made Xinghui very awe-inspiring.
Su Wen is very happy, originally only in the temple there are birds and beasts to listen to the Dharma, robes and affinity attributes to attract many birds and beasts like to be by his side, but now it is just ordinary here, butterflies are not afraid of themselves to come to the side, but let him be a little happy.
As Su Wen moved, the two butterflies immediately flew away, and after two circles around Su Wen, they flew into the grass.
The two of them shared the mulberries, and then continued to walk, and after crossing the mountain, they saw that there seemed to be a temple or Taoist temple in the distance, but the two did not approach and went down the mountain directly.
In the evening, I found a farmer's family, and the owner welcomed the two of them very warmly. Although Su Wen met many people in this line of work, although they were not Buddhist believers, they were all relatively simple and enthusiastic, which made Su Wen somewhat touched.
chatting during dinner, I realized that it was Jiagu Mountain that I had just crossed, and the mountain was not a Taoist temple, but a Confucian temple. In front of you is Yuzhou, and if you want to get there, I'm afraid you have to walk until midnight.
After speaking a scripture to the master's house, the two of them continued on their way.
At nine or ten o'clock in the evening, the two finally came to the edge of the city, where the tall buildings in the distance were brightly lit, but the place was somewhat dilapidated.
After walking a little further, the surrounding area gradually became bustling, but the two found that there were many storefronts with pink signs nearby, and there were often some young and scantily dressed women soliciting customers outside.
And their customers are also men dressed in very ordinary clothes, looking around and then looking for a shop to enter.
Su Wen and the two immediately knew that this was walking to the red light district of Yuzhou. However, the surrounding environment is not very good, and most of the guests are young men who come from other places to work.
"Two, do you want to stay overnight? Some women immediately greeted the two of them, with a delicate voice in their voices, but there was more laughter in their tones. When she shouted, several other women also greeted her, and they all laughed after greeting.
I have never encountered this kind of battle in this world, and I am a little embarrassed, and I immediately lost my usual indifference, as if the gods and Buddhas had been knocked down to the mortal world. I could only continue to smile like this, the curtain squinted forward, ignoring the laughter on both sides.
You must know that in the previous life, this kind of shop was more restrained, but in this world, it is a semi-public business, and those women don't have to worry about the police, so they are naturally much bolder than in the previous life.
Xinghui was a little embarrassed, and subconsciously looked at Su Wen, only to find that Su Wen's face looked normal, but the smile on his face was very stiff.
It's been almost four months since the first gambling battle, and I've never seen him like this. Usually they are serious, friendly, or indifferent, and all the disciples feel that although the abbot is young, he is very majestic.
Seeing Su Wen's appearance, he suddenly felt that he also had the side of a young man, which made Xinghui laugh in his heart, but he forgot the laughter on both sides for a while.
The two had not walked far before Su Wen's ears moved and suddenly stopped.
"Sariputta. If there are good men and good women, who hear the names of the Buddhas, who are good men and good women, they are all protected by all the Buddhas, and they all have to turn away from the three bodhisattvas. That's why Sariputta, you and others should believe my words and what the Buddhas say. ”
"This means that if there are good men and women who, after hearing or seeing this sutra, can believe in this sutra, accept it, recite it regularly, and often recite the names of all the Buddhas in the ten worlds praised in this sutra, then these good men and women will all be protected and remembered by so many Buddhas in the ten worlds......
"Abbot, what's wrong?" Xinghui walked around and found that Su Wen suddenly stopped there, and hurriedly asked.
Su Wen shook his head, took two steps back, and looked towards an alley, only to see a monk in a dimly lit alley talking to two women.
Su Wen never thought that in such a land of flowers and willows, there would be people who were preaching Buddhism, or the "Amitabha Sutra". At first, I thought I had heard poorly, but when I listened carefully, it was like this, and when I turned around, I saw a monk here.
Xinghui followed Su Wenshun's gaze and saw the monk as well, and suddenly his face was a little incredible.
After all, the monk and the land of flowers and willows are completely irrelevant.
The two of them are passing by, so what is he doing here?
Su Wen listened to it for a while, and found that the monk's Dharma cultivation was not shallow, and there was no mistake or omission in the explanation, and it was very easy to understand.
Such a person, if he is qualified to be a monk in an ordinary monastery, how can he come here in the middle of the night?
After thinking for a while, Su Wen walked to a woman who was soliciting customers outside the store not far away.
The woman was stunned when she saw Su Wenlai, after all, she was just laughing just now, but she didn't expect to really come over.
Looking at Su Wen carefully, his face was full of dust, and his body was a little dirty, but his appearance was very delicate. In particular, he is holding a Zen staff covered with golden scriptures, and his feet are barefoot, which looks very unusual. I can't help but think that if this monk is really willing, he doesn't need money.
However, if this monk really brings up that matter, I am afraid that he will also despise him and look down on him, and he will be blind and have a good skin.
"Female benefactor, the poor monk has something to ask. Su asked the woman and said.
"What's the matter with the mage? Why don't we go inside and talk about it?" the woman was not very old, only in her early twenties. was originally a young and beautiful woman, but it was covered by heavy makeup on her face.
The benefactor laughed. Su Wen smiled, and the smile made the woman feel a little dazzling.
After all, there are very few such characters in this kind of place, and most of the guests are the kind with an earthy smell.
And the breath on Su Wen's body also made her feel very comfortable.
"I wonder if the female benefactor knows that there is a monk in that alley?" asked Su Wen.
The woman was slightly disappointed when she heard Su Wen's words. "You mean Master Flower Street?"
"Master Flower Street?" Su Wen repeated, this is not the monk's Dharma name.
"He seems to have another name, but he always haunts here, and this place is also called Flower Street, so we all call him Master Flower Street. The woman explained. (To be continued.) )
