Chapter 17: The Apprentice
The little fox's eyes opened, and the first thing he saw was Yunhua, obviously treating Yunhua as his mother. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info obviously intimate with Yunhua, and he couldn't get off Yunhua's shoulder every day, as if Yunhua had a white fox scarf. Even the dust can't be brought down. provoked Chen, and scolded in his heart, "White-eyed wolf, white-eyed wolf". Yunhua was very proud. Yunhua, who has not had any playmates since childhood, seems to have found the feeling of longing for a long time in the fox, and has become more and more kind to the little fox.
"Watching the flowers bloom and fall, lying down and listening to the clouds rolling up" is the day that Taoist Huang Lao should have. The life of the Taoist temple is leisurely and uneventful. Until a little boy like a white fat bun struggled to walk by himself from his mother's arms, but his head had plunged into the path of conscience and came to an abrupt end.
The path of asking the heart is a phantom array, which is mainly aimed at people's hidden inner joys, sorrows, sorrows, worries, and fears. Either the heart of the Tao is transparent, and there is no fear or hindrance. You can pass the test smoothly without giving birth to demons. The second type is a person with great wisdom and perseverance, who can cut off himself and overcome his demons. It's just longer than usual. It's hard to say who is worried and who is inferior in the two situations. But the kid who was only a few years old was obviously not the second type.
Lichen felt that he was about to become a nanny, and it was so messy in the wind that he couldn't look like it was - God, how did you send the children to me. I'm not a kindergarten here! ~~~~
Both Taoism and Buddhism talk about fate. Taoism has a fairy fate, and Buddhism has a Buddha fate. In fact, fate is just the embodiment of providence. Go with the flow and get twice the result with half the effort. Against the sky~~~ The dust can only be hehe. When you really shout to yourself, "My life is up to me, not to God". Can you change what the Heavenly Dao has determined? Even if you go through all the hardships and change your fate, how can you know if this in itself is a kind of providence?
The child is held by his parents to come to the incense, please Sanqing bless and go out for a walk. The child should be born in a large family, wearing silk and satin, with a huge longevity lock around his neck, and his parents are also extraordinary, followed by a large number of maids and servants. The child could not sit still in his mother's arms and struggled to walk on his own. Mother can't resist, so it's good to let this little fat man walk around by himself. I put it down. Unexpectedly, the child ran from the right to the left in a blink of an eye, plunged into the path of inquiry, and disappeared. Mother is in a hurry, and she wants to chase after her. also ran into the formation, but he couldn't see his own child. Then the illusion struck, and she saw the future where her child was lost. The husband blamed, the mother-in-law did not forgive, and even her parents said that she was not. I read the child's name every day and look for it like crazy. I searched and searched, and I searched for I don't know how many years, but one day I found a young Taoist priest walking on the street - very much like his own son? The mother hurriedly chased after him, grabbed the corner of the young Taoist's clothes, and cried, "Son, go home with Mom," but the Taoist priest turned around. But it's a red-haired and green-eyed monster. The monster looked disgusted and asked her, "Who are you looking for?" and her mother was immediately frightened and cried. I only felt that I couldn't find my son, so I walked to the river outside the city and jumped down in one breath. The river was so cold that he couldn't breathe, and he began to struggle desperately again. At this time, I noticed a sudden strangeness around me. When I looked at it, I found that her husband was beside her, looking at her with a worried face and asking, "How are you?" The mother realized that she must have been fascinated, but she still asked her husband uneasily, "Where is my son?" The husband smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is the Immortal Dojo and you can't go." What you and your son broke into was the path of conscience that the Dust Immortal Master used to collect apprentices. Many people have been in, it's okay, maybe my son still has a fairy fate? After the husband finished speaking, he asked curiously, "What did you see inside?" The young mother said angrily: "You don't worry about your son at all?" I saw inside that my son was gone, and I looked everywhere, and you blamed me and didn't want me anymore. My mother-in-law dislikes me. It's easy for me to see my son.,But when I catch up, it's a monster that becomes.。。。 After hearing this, the husband laughed very unscrupulously and said: "Some people have seen mountains full of gold and silver inside, some people have inscribed gold lists in it, and some people have seen beautiful flowers, that is, they can find their sons and see monsters." The young mother was angry, slapped her husband a few times and said, "What's so funny" The husband saw that his wife was annoyed and angry, so he stopped teasing her, took out a handkerchief to help his wife wipe the corners of her eyes, and whispered: "Cry inside, wipe it quickly, be careful of other people's jokes.". The wife was ashamed and her face turned red. glanced at her husband, but she no longer forced her to ask her heart. I was so worried about the illusion just now that I could only stop on the side of the road with my husband and wait for my son to come out.
said that Xiao Baozi was very hilarious on the way to his heart. Inside, there will be monkeys to play with, and there will be little squirrels giving him fruit to eat. There are a lot of animals of all kinds, and the little guy is simply happy. The dust on the mountain is about to collapse. How can there be such a way to ask your heart, little guy, you are not afraid at all. Thankfully, I didn't get through it - I haven't come out of it yet. Just when Dust thought so. The child suddenly said, "Everyone, I'm going back." Otherwise, Mom will be in a hurry. Can I come back to you next time? The words fell, and the little bun broke through the phantom array, and the phantom array disappeared. Xiao Baozi saw his parents again, and threw himself into his mother's arms like a bird in the forest, but he didn't know that the dust on the mountain that watched all this almost fell - too child's play.
The Taoist temple wants to receive incense people, and Lichen is reluctant to go to the front to be busy with mundane things, Yunhua is too small, and as for the little fox~~ Forget it. Lichen had to recruit a few Taoist priests to help receive pilgrims in the front hall and take care of general affairs. and the receipt of incense merit money.
On weekdays, Lichen doesn't appear in front of people, but Xiaobaozi's family, Lichen has to go into battle in person.
"Amitayus". Lichen made a mockery to Xiao Baozi's parents.
"Oh, oh, it's the fairy chief" Xiao Baozi's parents were very excited, and the pilgrims next to them also turned their heads. I was excited to see an idol.
"Poor Dao, I think of the two of them. What if you don't know what to do? Lichen asked. From time to time, his eyes were on the little one sitting in his mother's arms. The little guy has long lips and white teeth, pink and tender, like a white bread. A pair of eyes purred and rolled quickly. It looks cute, but it's definitely a naughty bag.
"The Taoist is polite, and our husband and wife are honored." Little Bun Daddy politely returned. When Xiao Baozi didn't have any different colors at all, but was very excited to run out of the road of conscience, as Xiao Baozi's father, he guessed that his son might really have a fairy fate and broke through the road of conscience. For a while, I was happy and sad. The joy is that his son has a fairy fate, and others can't catch up with him. His son can run around casually. What worries me is that my son is too young, how can I be willing to let him leave his side so early and become a monk. Besides, my mother's side can't explain it. Second, he hoped that his son would marry a wife and have children, and gain fame. But once you enter the door, it is impossible.
Lichen naturally guessed his mood as a father, and he didn't say much. said "please" and led the couple and the small bun into the side hall. After the sitting, the dust sat aside. Xiao Baozi's father sat on the other side, and Xiao Baozi's mother sat under her husband with Xiao Baozi in her arms. The maid somehow stayed outside the door.
Lichen took a few cups of fragrant tea and appeared in his hand out of thin air. The fragrant tea was steaming hot, apparently freshly brewed. The burst of aroma is not ordinary. Little Bun's parents were taken aback. It's that Xiao Baozi is very interested in the hot tea that suddenly appears. Helplessly, his mother had already stared at this guy and grabbed his fat paws and didn't let him touch them.
"The poor Dao wants to accept the son as a disciple. I don't know what the two of you think? Lichen asked.
"Thank you Immortal for your attention, our husband and wife are naturally happy for the dog, but the dog is still young, I don't know if it's too early. In addition, the old lady in the family loves this son very much. When the prayer is spoken, it is. "Little Bun's father is a little embarrassed.
Lichen smiled and said, "Oh, Master Liu is now a son, but he is still young, so it is naturally inconvenient to leave his parents too far." Cultivation is not better than martial arts, the sooner the better, cultivation requires peace of mind, and it is indeed not suitable for children. Otherwise, the son will stay at home first, and he will be under the knees of Chenghuan, and he has fulfilled the filial piety of his children and grandchildren. When you are eight years old, you can come to the mountains to listen to lectures. Half a month at a time, twice a year is fine. There are no bhikshunis in the Dao Gate, and the matter of marriage depends only on oneself, and it will not be hindered."
Master Liu was not surprised, Chen could know his name. If the dust immortal master doesn't have this way, how can he let his son apprentice to him. Now since the Immortal Chief said so. Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My worries are the reluctance of my mother at home, and there is also the problem of blood. There are few people in the family, and it is really difficult. Since the Tao is favored. It is a child's blessing. After speaking, he waved to the little guy in Mrs. Chong's arms, "Hong'er, come, kowtow to the master; “
Strange to say, the little guy who is naughty and mischievous on weekdays actually walked over with a serious face, knelt in front of the dust, and kowtowed three times in a proper manner. There was a sweet drop calling out Master. It amazed the parents of the little buns. I can only sigh that fate is predestined, and everything has its own providence.
Seeing that Xiao Baozi had finished kowtowing, he took out a book of Taoist scriptures from his sleeve and said: "I will teach you a volume of Taoist scriptures for the teacher, but you can take it home and ask Mr. to teach you to read it." In the future, we should be filial to our parents, be neighbors, and be kind to others. Don't be stubborn. ”
"Yes, Master". The child's tutoring is very good, and there is obviously no shortage of etiquette, so he took it respectfully, and suddenly looked out of his eyes. He smiled and said; "That's your senior sister. You can go and say hello to your sister and ask her to play with you. Go ahead! After finishing speaking, the little bun was like being pardoned. Restore it immediately. Jumping up and down, he said goodbye and went to play with his senior sister.
After the little bun left, Lichen talked with Master Liu. After talking about it, I found that Master Liu was extraordinary, well-informed, and extraordinary. The two had a good conversation. It wasn't until Yunhua and Xiao Baozi waited for the little white fox to come to visit that they realized that it was not early. Only then did the conversation end, and Lichen invited Xiao Baozi's family to have dinner together. Stay overnight. The next day, Xiao Baozi reluctantly said goodbye in tears------ Xiao Baozi was reluctant to let her sister and the little fox go. There's nothing to do with Master.
The two disciples have been decided, and Lichen suddenly sensed that the work was finally completed, all mundane things had come to an end, and the day of the knot was approaching. After the dust, he ordered the mountain gate to be closed temporarily. and stepped down in the protective formation in and around the Taoist temple. Then he told Yunhua. I went to the depths of the mountain alone to find a place where the aura was more active, opened a cave, and built a cave. Lay down a large array. took out the spirit stone he got from Xuanxuzi and set up a spirit gathering array. I'm ready to retreat.
