30 The torment of prostrateness

"There are so many horses in the stable, there are more than two hundred?" Yuelou asked Wu Liji. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Not so much". Uligi pulled the horse rope and smiled: "There are only one hundred and fifty-one horses." ”

Although there are many horses, the circle is larger. More than a hundred horses were not crowded in it, and there was a large gap.

"It's amazing that more than a hundred horses are together. They're not running yet, but the power and speed is still exciting." Yuelou stared at Gunma Road.

Uliji opened the door of the circle, and the horses came out of the circle and rushed to the grassland.

"Aren't you afraid that the horses will run away? Yuelou said worriedly.

"It's fine". Uligi whipped his horse: "You come with me." He ran a few steps and put a tall and strong red horse on a leosed pole: "This is the head horse." Just keep this horse under control, and all the horses will listen to you. ”

"No wonder you weren't in a hurry just now." Satoyama said.

The horse was reluctant to be controlled. It shook its head violently, its front legs raised to stand. Uligi held on to the harness and did not allow it to behave excessively.

"You have so much strength!" Yuelou looked at the muscles that exploded all over his body and said, "You can actually control a fierce horse!"

"Every Mongolian man can do it. ”

Uligi loosened the horse's pole and led the lead horse to a meadow with abundant water and grass. Gunma leisurely drinks water and grazes.

It is full of horses, cows, and sheep, giving people a sense of abundance and tranquility.

"You steppe people are really rich." Satoshi Hill Road.

"It's ok. As long as you are diligent, everyone will have money. ”

"Do you say sheep can be ridden?" Yuelou looked at a ewe and said excitedly.

"I haven't tried". Uligi was very surprised.

Yuelou jumped off the horse and slowly walked to the ewe's side. The sheep did not run away. As soon as Yuelou lifted his foot, the sheep hurriedly ran away. Yuelou snorted lightly and jumped on the back of the sheep. The sheep was running so fast that she couldn't control her balance. Yuelou simply lay down and hugged its neck. The sheep ran more crazy, and Yuelou was even happier. Yuelou didn't come down from the sheep's back until he had enough trouble. She came and knelt directly on the ground. She stroked the sheep's forehead and said pityingly, "It's really hard for you." She smiled back at the owner of the sheep. The owner of the sheep looked at her helplessly.

There was a line of people walking by the edge of the animal. They bowed in three steps, and bowed in five steps.

"Who are they?" Congshan asked Yuelou.

"They are followers of Tibetan Buddhism, and there must be a temple ahead." Yuelou smiled: "Why don't we go and have a look?"

Yuelou slowly walked to the side of the group, while Congshan followed. Yuelou looked at their pious faces and felt a sense of awe, and she also retreated to Congshan's side: "The power of religion is really great! It can make people come from far and wide to worship, and it can make people happy, happy, and comfortable." ”

But religion can also make people lazy, discouraged, and patient. ”

But why do people have to have fighting spirit? Isn't it better to be calm, comfortable, and self-sufficient? People who have many desires will never be happy in their lives. ”

"Is it also a desire to live well and eat well?"

"Of course. All people need is a bed and three simple meals. Isn't it a desire to live in a big house, drive a good car, and eat delicacies from the mountains and seas?"

As they discussed, they came to an abrupt mountain. The mountain road is rugged and circling, and the temple is on the mountainside. Even when the group went up the mountain, they kept bowing. A little girl was visibly exhausted and staggered. But her parents still told her to bow down.

Yuelou walked over and said, "You see that she is about to fall, and you still let her kowtow?"

"If she falls, she can get up, if she doesn't respect the Buddha, she can only be unfortunate for the rest of her life." The girl's father had a burning eye. Yuelou didn't know what to say, but looked at the girl's pious eyes with pity. She suddenly resented religion as well.

They are still bowing down. I saw an old man bend down and put his hands on the ground. The veins on the back of his hands swelled, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. But he still knelt down with difficulty. Suddenly, his body rolled on his side and fell to the ground. Yuelou hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man up. Unexpectedly, he stood up nimbly, and knelt down on the ground again.

The red walls of the temple are mottled, revealing a little white background. Yuelou reached out and touched the red wall, feeling a melancholy hit her fingertips. Entering the courtyard, you can see a triple cornice. Behind the cornices is a towering stone mountain. Yuelou Satoyama followed them into the temple. Although the courtyard is dilapidated, the temple is carved and painted, and it is splendid. People knelt in front of the Buddha and kowtowed and made wishes, not daring to look into the eyes of the Buddha and the eighteen Arhats. Yuelou and Congshan also knelt down and kowtowed. The two drank the butter tea handed by the temple disciples, and bowed to the temple disciples in return. The crowd stood up and walked into the back hall. The back hall is the place where the scriptures are hidden, and there are more than a dozen prayer cylinders with gold characters on a blue background. Congshan Yuelou turned the prayer cylinder with them and reluctantly walked out of the temple.

When Uligi heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Yuelou was already sitting beside him. Smoke came out of Uliji's mouth.

"Let me try one too?" Yuelou smiled elegantly.

"This is smoked by the big guys". Uligi said as he handed the cigarette to Congshan. Satoyama waved his hand and did not answer.

"If you don't smoke, you're not a man!" Uligi's mouth opened wide.

"If you want to smoke, you don't give it, but if you don't smoke, you want to give it to him." Yuelou picked up a handful of grass and threw it forward.

"Huh". Wu Liji lowered his head embarrassedly and handed the cigarette to Yuelou: "It's not good to smoke, just have fun." ”

"It's not good, you're still smoking, isn't that cheap?"

Ulligi smiled even more awkwardly. He suddenly felt that Yuelou was very cute, and he didn't realize that he looked at her a few more times. He lit the smoke for the moon tower. As soon as Yuelou took a sip, he coughed violently. She clenched her knees, and even tears flowed. Congshan patted her on the back warmly: "You are really reckless, look how uncomfortable you are." ”

Yuelou wiped the tears from her eyelashes and smiled: "You will never know how it feels if you don't taste it." ”

"You are really a different woman!" Wu Liji looked at Yuelou with admiration: "You kid is so happy, you can marry such a woman." ”

"I'll ...... her" Congshan hadn't finished speaking, and Yuelou had already made him lie on the lawn. Congshan stood up and looked at Yuelou dissatisfied.

"Who told you to say that kind of thing?" Yuelou said angrily.

"I haven't finished speaking, how do you know what I'm talking about?" Congshan was also very angry.

"Isn't that obvious?"

"Why are you so unreasonable?"

"It's obvious that you said the wrong thing." Yuelou glared at Congshan without showing weakness.

Watching them quarrel, Uligi did not persuade. Isn't it all too common for husbands and wives to quarrel?

The old man's daughter-in-law rode on the back of the sheep, and the old man squatted in front of the sheep.

"What are they doing?" Yuelou asked, "Why are the sheep crying so badly?"

"Maybe it's medicine for the sheep, right?"

As they approached, the old man's dagger had been pulled out of the throat of the sheep. Sheep blood sprayed on the grass like a balloon filled with water bursting.

The old man raised his bleeding face and smiled, "You guys will leave tomorrow." I'm going to cook lamb for you today!"

The sheep was still bleeding, it was even crying, and it didn't fall down. It gasped, like someone with asthma. With every gasp, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth. It fell to its knees. After a while, he tried to stand up with his left hoof. It struggled, and its body trembled violently. Suddenly, it fell to the ground with a thud. Yuelou burst into tears. She pondered by the fire what the old man said: 'Life is cruel, and the law of the jungle is the fundamental law of human society and nature': "It is indeed the law of nature that sheep eat grass and wolves eat sheep, and everyone will be jealous, resentful, and desired, so whether people kill people or war, they are the true face of human beings." ”

"We have to learn to understand, to forgive, to forgive. Life is tragic. Even though we know that we will eventually die, we still have to cherish life and strive for a better life. ”

The old man's granddaughter ran over and squatted by the fire: "Sister, my head is itchy. Can you help me catch lice?"

"Lion, how can there be a lion on your head?" Yuelou was puzzled.

The girl felt something move in her hair, and with a stroke of her hand, two lice fell off. She raised her hand and let Yuelou see: "This is lice." ”

"How can you have such a thing on your head?"

"I don't know, but there are often anyway. It's itchy. ”

"It should be that your hair is too dirty?" Yuelou said, touching the girl's unkempt hair.

"There are a lot of kids! Some girls even throw lice at the boys' heads. ”

Yuelou smiled from ear to ear. She took the girl into her arms and carefully caught lice for her.

The morning breeze was cold, and Satoyama buttoned the last button of his coat.

"You're gone, and I don't know if you'll ever see you again. ”

"We'll be back soon." Yuelou wrapped her arms around the old man's arm and said affectionately, "You have to take good care of your body." ”

"Well, next time I come to see your children. ”

"I'll make sure you kiss her. ”

"I don't want to kiss her, I want to kiss you." Uliji on the side was joking.

Yuelou said angrily: "You want to do a lot of things!"
