Chapter 167: Master Duchen
Compared with Chu Ning's refreshed spirits, Meng Dongyue, who bent over and breathed heavily, was almost paralyzed into a dog. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Little junior sister, next time, I will never accompany you to Leiguang Temple!" Meng Dongyue said breathlessly, "No!
Even if he had to come, he would never have done anything to climb so many steps!
After climbing the steps of Leiguang Temple, Meng Dongyue deeply felt that he was guilty of himself, and he was afraid that he would have to live a few years less.
Originally, he thought that Chu Ning should be the one who was stumped by the thousands of steps, but who knew that the last person who was embarrassed was himself!
If it weren't for not being embarrassed in front of the little junior sister, Meng Dongyue would not have been able to climb these thousands of steps at all.
In the past, when Meng Dongyue saw Master Duchen, he was at his master's residence. If he had known that he would have to suffer such torture when he came to visit Master Duchen, he should have begged Master Duchen to meet him somewhere else!
"Senior Brother Meng, it's clear that you are negligent in exercising, and your health is too poor!" Chu Ning frowned and looked at him with deliberate disgust, "You can't even compare to me as a student, how can you be embarrassed to go out to meet people in the future?"
Meng Dongyue gave her a roll of his eyes directly.
Chu Ning pretended that she couldn't go any longer, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Meng, aren't we going to see Master Duchen?
Although there is a Zhike master at the gate of Leiguang Temple, Chu Ning doesn't know if he should come forward to talk to the Zhike master.
Senior Brother Meng waved his hand and gasped for a few more breaths before saying, "Little Senior Sister, don't worry, let me rest for a while." ”
Tsk, Senior Brother Meng's body is even worse than she imagined!
However, at the gate of Leiguang Temple, although there are not many people like Meng Dongyue who are gasping and resting, there are so few, which makes Meng Dongyue not look so abrupt.
Chu Ning accompanied Meng Dongyue to rest at the gate of Leiguang Temple for more than ten minutes, and Meng Dongyue was relieved.
He straightened the hem of his clothes, flicked his hair, and immediately returned to his former graceful appearance.
"Master, I'm Meng Dongyue, and I made an appointment with Master Duchen. Meng Dongyue stepped forward to talk to Master Zhike.
"Mr. Meng is polite. Master Zhike glanced at Meng Dongyue, and his eyes moved to Chu Ning beside him: "This one, it should be Miss Chu, right?"
Hey, does this acquaintance master actually know himself?
Chu Ning nodded with some surprise and said, "Hello master, I'm Chu Ning." ”
Master Zhike smiled: "Master Duchen has already explained, the two donors, please come with me." ”
In the face of the gentle temperament of the Zhike master, whether it was Meng Dongyue or Chu Ning, they all restrained their own nature and became extremely humble.
The two followed Master Zhike inside, passing through several halls, and finally directly entered the backyard of Leiguang Temple.
The backyard of Leiguang Temple was divided into several courtyards.
There is a cafeteria, a place for morning exercises, but more often than not, a courtyard where the monks live.
Most monks live in a room with two or three people, but those with special status can have a separate courtyard.
For example, Master Duchen.
Master Duchen lives in the innermost courtyard of the backyard of Leiguang Temple.
The name of this courtyard is Duchen Temple.
Duchen Courtyard is close to the back mountain, and when you open the back door of Duchen Courtyard, you can directly see the cliff of the back mountain.
Master Duchen usually meditates on a large rock on the cliff and recites scriptures.
Bring Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue to Duchen Courtyard, and the door of Duchen Courtyard is open.
"The poor monk has sent the two donors here, and the two donors please go in by themselves. Master Zhike smiled.
Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue hurriedly returned the salute to the master of Zhike.
Master Zhike smiled and turned around and left directly.
Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue were stunned for a moment before reacting.
That's going too fast, isn't it?!
This Leiguang Temple's style of doing things is really unexpected!
Just when the two of them were still in a daze, a distant voice suddenly came from the Duchen Courtyard: "Two donors, please come in." ”
Obviously, the tone of this voice was very light, so light that people could hardly hear the emotion, but Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue couldn't help but feel numb.
Master Duchen is really not simple!
For those who haven't seen him yet, just hearing his voice makes people subconsciously rise in admiration.
The two of them walked in honestly.
Master Duchen was sitting in the courtyard, there was a stone bench under him, and there was a stone table in front of him, everything seemed so natural and simple, making people feel as if they had touched the most appropriate feeling of nature.
Chu Ning glanced at it, it was a young monk who looked only about thirty years old, his skin was very white, and there was a hint of warmth between his eyebrows, which made people feel very trustworthy at a glance.
Chu Ning wondered in his heart.
I think back then, when she was young, she followed her grandfather to meet Master Duchen. At that time, Master Duchen seemed to be already like this.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, Master Duchen's appearance did not change at all.
But Chu Ning knew that if her grandfather was still alive, she was afraid that Master Duchen's age would be older than her grandfather.
I don't know what kind of maintenance techniques Master Duchen used, and his appearance has remained unchanged over the years.
Otherwise, it's the secret method of their Buddhism?
"Meet Master Dust. ”
Chu Ning bent down sincerely to say hello.
Meng Dongyue followed.
Master Duchen smiled slightly: "Two donors, please take a seat." ”
Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue sat down on the only two stone benches next to the stone table.
Master Duchen personally poured tea for the two.
Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue are as honest as elementary school students at this time, not to mention how well-behaved they are.
Chu Ning noticed that the tea set used by Master Duchen turned out to be the famous purple clay pot!
Moreover, looking at the color of the purple clay pot, it is obvious that this pot is an antiquity, not a modern work of art.
Seeing Chu Ning's warm gaze, Master Duchen smiled and said, "It seems that Master Chu is a person with vision, I wonder what Master Chu has to say about the teapot of Lao Qu?"
Chu Ning raised her eyebrows.
Is this an investigation?
Being tested for this kind of thing, Chu Ning has encountered a lot since she was a child, but she doesn't feel stage fright.
And she still has something to ask for Master Duchen, since Master Duchen wants to test her, then she has to give a beautiful answer!
"Master Hui Duchen's words, if I am not mistaken, this teapot of yours should be the famous purple clay pot!" Chu Ning pointed to the teapot and smiled faintly, "Moreover, this purple clay pot of yours is not ordinary, it should be a rare spring pot, right?"
Master Duchen's eyes lit up, but he didn't speak, but the smile on his face deepened.
Sure enough, she is Chu Yingluo's daughter, not to mention that this kind of eyesight is among her peers, even compared with the predecessors of the older generation, she is not inferior at all!
