Chapter 161: Lotus Pond Planting Lotus Flowers

"Abbot, I want to learn martial arts here and become a lay disciple. Didn't you say last time that you wanted the family's consent? This is my father. Wang De said to Su Wen, looking nervous, for fear that Su Wen would not agree.

"Hello hello, I am Wang De's father, my child has liked martial arts since he was a child, and I hope the abbot can accept him. As much as it costs, it costs. Wang De's father hurriedly said.

"Amitabha. Su Wen first saluted Wang De's father.

"Learning martial arts in this temple can be effective in a short time, can the donor be willing to do it?"

"What does this mean by not a short time, and how long will it take?" Wang De's father immediately asked when he heard this.

"Ten years and eight years is not much, when can I get out of Muren Lane, when can I pass the customs and go down the mountain. ”

When Wang De's father heard this, he wondered: "What is that wooden alley? I wonder if there is any other way?"

"Needless to say, the matter of Woodman Alley. People who are not gifted and intelligent cannot get out in a few years. There are other methods, you need to go down the mountain through the side gate, and you are not allowed to call yourself a disciple of the Pure Heart Temple in the future, and you are not allowed to return to the mountain. ”

"Master, that's it. Wang De's father gritted his teeth and agreed.

"In addition, life in the temple is hard, and you must be mentally prepared. Su Wen added.

"I can endure hardship. Wang De said decisively, with determination in his voice.

"I have an abbot, I don't know how much it costs?" Wang De's father saw that his son said decisively, and immediately decided this matter, for fear that Su Wen would regret it.

Su Wen didn't mean not to accept it. If it's just an ordinary person, then you have to think about it. Since it is a person who has a little merit, it is okay to accept it. What's more, after Yilong and the others left, the lay disciples under the sect were left with only one leopard to resist the beam.

"There is no shortage of this meal in the temple, and the cost is counted. Su Wen shook his head and said. "You come back when you're ready, you don't need too many things in the temple, there are bedding and other things in the temple. ”

"Thank you, Abbot, thank you, Abbot. Wang De said with excitement on his face.

Su Wen waved his hand: "Let's go first, give you a day to go back and prepare, and come back tomorrow." ”

After Wang De and his father left, they put incense on the pillar in the temple and prayed, and after the incense, his heart was much calmer.

After the two of them left the mountain gate, Wang De's father glanced back and exclaimed: "I have heard of this Pure Heart Temple, and it is really amazing to come here today." ”

"And you'll come back often?"

"Come and see you, but your mother may come often. Don't forget to promise me something. ”

The two walked down while chatting, and when they saw two dark and thin monks walking up from the bottom of the mountain, they couldn't help but look at it twice.

The monks of the Pure Heart Temple are all clean and clean, and these two look sloppy and dusty, but they feel very good, and they are real monks. It's not that the Pure Heart Temple is a fake monk, it's just that ordinary people will be more or less in awe when they see this kind of ascetic.

Stepping on the stone steps, avoiding the pilgrims descending the mountain, ignoring their strange gazes, one of the monks said to the other. "Senior brother, this is so luxurious, it doesn't seem to be a place for sincere cultivation. ”

"It wasn't like that last time I came. The last time my junior brother came to ask for advice, he had to go back to the mountain only when the return time came, and the Dharma here is indeed profound."

Before the two of them went up to the mountain gate, they first looked up at the tall mountain gate, and then put their eyes on the sign standing in front of the mountain gate. ”

"This time, it happened that I was just in time for the abbot to give a lecture, and I haven't heard the abbot of this temple for a long time last time, and I have always regretted it. ”

Another monk also bowed slightly, and when he came, he encountered a lecture, which was good. It's just that the mountain road and the mountain gate are all brand new, all built of white stone, and I don't know how much it cost, so I don't get used to it.

At this time, there was no one in front of the mountain gate, and the two of them didn't see the monk outside, so they walked into the mountain gate.

The moment they walked into the mountain gate, their faces changed.

It took a long time for one of the monks to let out a breath. "It's so powerful, I almost shook my heart, and the past poured out. ”

Another person said strangely: "Senior brother, you are the same? I thought I had a distracting thought in my heart."

The senior brother raised his eyebrows, and he didn't dare to underestimate it anymore. "I'm the same, for some reason. However, this temple seems to have a high-ranking person. ”

After that, both of them walked forward step by step with their hands folded, which was a salute.

Su Wen had just let Wang De and his son leave at this time, and it didn't take long to hear that there were two monks who wanted to place orders. When they came to the front yard, the two monks faced the main hall and folded their hands.

"It turned out to be Master Guangjue. Su Wen recognized at a glance this wandering monk who had been here last year.

"If you can't be a mage, just call me by my name. Guangjue bowed his head. "This is my senior brother Guangde, and the two of us are here to study, hoping for the abbot's grace. ”

Su Wen looked at the appearance of the two of them, and couldn't help asking, "How did the two of you come?"

"It took a thousand kilometers and 1.77 million steps to get here. Guangde said slightly smugly.

Su Wen nodded, although the behavior of the two was respectable, but in his heart he felt that this Guangde practice was in the wrong direction, it was superficial, it seemed that he was dedicated to practice, and he was concentrating on the same, I am afraid that his mind on the road is also on counting, how can he still have the mind to ponder the Dharma. However, he didn't say anything: "The temple has been crowded recently, and the two of you are afraid that you will have to squeeze with others." ”

"Thank you, Abbot. The two replied in unison.

Let the two of them be arranged to those children in the back mountain, and during their stay in the temple, they can go except for the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.

Then find the person in charge of the site to build another tin house and fill the lotus pond with water.

A ditch has been dug in the mountain at the creek leading directly to the lotus pond, and the disconnected part can be dug up.

It didn't take long to see a stream flowing down a ditch and into the lotus pond. At this rate, the lotus pond will probably be half filled tomorrow morning.

Su Wen first planted a lotus seed in a pot in the room, and it didn't take long for it to grow more than a meter tall and bloom a lotus flower half a meter in size. When the flowers bloom, the fragrance in the room is fragrant, which makes people feel clear after smelling it. However, because it is not in the water, the branches below cannot support such a large lotus flower and lotus leaf, if it is not Su Wen's hand to hold it quickly, I am afraid that the flower will break when it blooms.

This lotus flower fragrance can clear the heart and mind, and lotus seeds are also used to nourish the spirit.

Then the lotus withered and produced a lotus pod, which Su Wen crushed and took out more than 50 lotus seeds.

In this way, he performed it two more times, and took out more than 300 lotus seeds.

In the evening, Su Wen came to the lotus pond with the seeds, and at this time, the water in it was not up to his ankles, so Su Wen sprinkled the lotus seeds evenly into the entire lotus pond, and then dripped two drops of spiritual water into the lotus pond.

It didn't take long for small leaves to grow in the lotus pond.

In addition to the lotus flower, planktonic algae in the water also grows a patch.

Late at night after everyone else had slept, Su Wen went out into the room with his clothes on. After ascending to the advanced Dharma that day, he initially had some supernatural powers. In addition to seeing far away and looking at the five qi on people's foreheads, although it is not as clear as day at night, it can also be seen very clearly.

When I came to the lotus pond again, the water in it was half a meter deep, and the growth rate of the lotus leaves was not comparable to the speed of irrigation, and it was completely submerged by the water.

Three more drops of spiritual water were poured into the lotus pond, and it didn't take long for lotus leaves to emerge from the water again. At the same time, white buds emerge in the lotus leaves, nearly half a meter above the water surface, and green and white dots on the water surface, dotted with stars.

At the same time, there was a rumbling sound in the water, and from time to time there was a splash.

Su Wen looked intently and could see small fish churning in the water.

These small fish, which flowed down the canal from the stream, were originally only half a finger long, but when the churning stopped, they swam in front of Su Wen and jumped out of the water from time to time.

Under the moonlight, the backs of these fish reflected a faint light, and hundreds of them gathered.

"You are spiritual, but this is already creation, and you can't be greedy. Su Wen smiled and scolded in the water, and I don't know if I heard his words, more than a dozen fish jumped out of the water more than half a foot high together, and fell down again.
