10. Impotence

"What are you going to do at the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas?" Meng Qing looked at the carriage in front, he was separated from the front, and there were two or three maids on top of their carriage.

Lu Wu was already very familiar with Meng Qing, he smiled when he heard this, peeled a citrus for him, wiped his hands with a cloth towel and said, "Our son will go to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple to offer incense." I heard that the incense of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple is effective, but the presiding master has never met anyone, probably because the son has some doubts and wants to ask, every year there is a festival to go to a trip. ”

Doubts?

Meng Qing slowly put the citrus into his mouth, the citrus in this season is not delicious, although the taste is still there, but it lacks moisture, and the taste is not very good.

After eating, he had some astringency, and he drank some more water before removing the astringency in his mouth.

The way was very smooth to the place, but when everyone got off the mountain and wanted to go up on foot.

"It's a miracle to walk up on your own." Lu Wu smiled and picked up the basket, which contained nothing more than some snacks.

Meng Qing nodded, looked at Yin Xiu, who had already walked up in front of him, and followed after taking two quick steps.

Li Wan'er jumped to his side without being afraid, pulled his trouser leg and motioned him to squat down a little, then covered her mouth with her hand and whispered, "Can you climb very high?" ”

Meng Qing looked at the somewhat winding road and touched his nose, "I don't know." ”

In the past, Meng Chao often came to worship the Buddha, but because she was not in good health, although she insisted on it several times, but later it was the sedan chair driver who directly carried the sedan chair up, he always loved to sleep, and he didn't know how far the road was.

Li Wan'er pursed her mouth, lifted her little skirt aggrievedly, and then began to take steps with a sigh.

The group went out early in the morning, and when they arrived at the gate of the temple, the sun had already risen, but fortunately it was autumn and it was not hot, otherwise they would have to suffer a little.

Meng Qing panted and looked at the stone steps on the ground, just thinking about sitting there immediately, Li Wan'er on the side cried and hugged Yin Xiu's leg and fell down, grinding for a long time before being picked up by the guards who followed behind Yin Xiu.

Immediately, she patted her little chest and gasped a few times, "But I'm tired." ”

A group of people invested some incense money and were taken to the main hall by the monks, as if infected by the strong Buddha spirit, and everyone couldn't help but calm down after arriving here.

"I heard that the ancient Buddha of Zhengyin once crossed a Buddha here, and was later accepted as a boy and followed him to the Four Truths Heaven to guard 100,000 rakshasas." Fan Wusu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the Buddha Qi Dao that almost covered the entire mountain in the sky above the Daxiong Treasure Hall.

Xie Bi'an was obviously in a good mood here, looked at the golden Buddha in the middle with a smile, and bowed with one hand on his chest.

I don't know if it's Fan Wusheng's illusion, at the moment when Xie Bi'an bent over, the Buddha statue seemed to show a sad and happy expression, and when he wanted to see it more clearly, the Buddha statue returned to its original appearance.

"The name of that Buddha object is Midi, it is a delicate cat, and after it was transformed into a Buddha weapon, it became Gamaso, and its duty is to compile the shackles on the gate of the Rakshasa blocked by the Four Noble Truths." Xie Bi'an straightened his waist, looked around, and couldn't help but look closer, "I remember, in the past, I was raised under the seat of the ancient Buddha......

Fan Wusu had never heard Xie Bi'an take the initiative to talk about this, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but prick up his ears and cautiously inquire for more information, "What is the ancient Buddha like?" ”

"Father Buddha." Xie Bi'an tilted his head, and there was a quiet smile on his face, "The Four Noble Truths are very quiet, my temperament is relatively cold, and there is no excitement under the ancient Buddha's seat, in the thousands of years of the Four Noble Truths, every day is chanting, meditating, and taking care of the Bodhi Tree......"

It sounded very boring, but Fan Wuxuan heard the nostalgia for that kind of day in Xie Bi'an's words.

Although it is very boring to say, but that kind of life is really comfortable, they don't need to worry about anything else, they just need to study the Buddhist scriptures and understand the Buddhist principles.

"The same can be true of the underworld." Fan Wusu said in a sullen voice: "When the Hades King reaches the age of the throne, the three thousand demons will be all killed, the four seas will be calmed, and you can be so demure in the underworld." ”

Xie Bi'an smiled, then tilted his head and said, "Let's go ahead and take a look." ”

After a few people put on the incense, they were taken to the wing room by the little master, and the facilities inside were very poor, so Meng Qing was used to it, so he just sat comfortably on the stool and poured a cup of tea after just looking around.

He had barely taken a few sips when there was a knock on the door.

Meng Qing stood up and opened the door, only to find that there was a little monk standing outside the door, although there was no scar, but his hair had fallen out, and he was wearing a gray robe.

"What advice does the little master have?" Meng Qing took a step back and left a place for one person to enter, but the little monk did not enter, shook his head in place, lowered his eyes and lowered his head and whispered: "The host master said that there are distinguished guests coming today, please go to the prince." ”

Guest......?

Meng Qing was stunned for a moment, shook his hand funny, and said, "I'm just a cloth cloth, if I really want to say that you are a distinguished guest, it should be the son who came with me." ”

"The host master only instructed the little monk to speak." The little monk took a step back after listening to Meng Qing's words, and practiced a Buddhist principle, "When the donor thinks clearly, just close your eyes and walk out of the door, and the master will guide the donor to go." ”

After the little monk finished explaining, he hurriedly left, leaving Meng Qing alone in a daze.

The sun gradually sank in the west as time passed, Meng Qing ate vegetarian food without knowing the taste, thought about it in the room, and finally walked out of the door.

He didn't close his eyes, but walked to Yin Xiu's door, which was only a corridor away from him.

"Childe." After seeing Yin Xiu, Meng Qing began to hesitate, bit his lip a few times, and finally said, "What does Childe want most at this moment?" ”

"What do you want most?" Yin Xiu turned his head sideways, as if he was identifying the place where the strong light was, but he didn't find it after a while, he laughed self-deprecatingly, and said, "Mr. Bai said that he laughed, Yin just wants to live in Yin's house now, but he doesn't have anything else to ask for." ”

"So, what about Childe's eyes, ......?" Meng Qing's hand clenched his sleeves, and he mustered up the courage to finally ask.

Yin Xiu smiled, then shook his head, groped to open the window on one side, and gently sniffed the fragrance of flowers in the wind and said, "It's just fate." ”

Meng Qing didn't know what to do, closed the door and left, and returned to his room.

"Is there a record in the book of life and death of this presiding officer of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple?" Xie Bi'an said.

Fan Wusu nodded twice on the book of life and death, then nodded and said, "Yes, it's just a mortal." It's just that he was once enlightened by Bai Zhan Shenjun, and he happened to get some emperor slurry, so he had some Buddha bones. ”

"Mortals can be regarded as very good at creation in this way." Xie Bi'an smiled and raised his heels, "I just don't know what this host wants to do when he looks for Meng Qing." ”

Meng Qing closed his eyes and pushed open the door as the little monk said, and what he was thinking about was going back and forth between Yin Xiu and the little monk, when he suddenly heard the sound of a Buddha bell ringing, and opened his eyes with a shudder.

In front of him was no longer the courtyard he had seen during the day, it was full of scriptures, and a big Buddha in the center had a compassionate smile on his face, and Meng Qing felt that the complicated thoughts just now gradually quieted down.

There was a white-bearded monk sitting on a futon and knocking on the wooden fish, his sound rhythmic and muttering something in his mouth.

Meng Qing hesitated for a moment, and just after he made a move, he was noticed by the monk in front of him.

"Meng Gongzi." The monk's voice sounded hoarse, but the tea beside him was not hot at all, and a full cup seemed to have not been drunk.

Meng Qing was stunned, "How does the master know my name?" ”

"Before Ling Zun left, he handed the little monk a tail of dust, and told me to keep it before the son came."

"...... my father?" Meng Qing took two steps forward and walked to the host's side, the sound of the wooden fish was still there, but the host didn't move at all.

waited until Meng Qing walked in front of him, only to find that the host master had passed away.

"Monk Fa Yi, the tail dust in his arms is a fox tail of Bai Zhan Shenjun, his soul is still there, and he has not been detained by the shadows, if the opportunity is enough, it should be able to feather and ascend to the immortal." Fan Wusu closed the book of life in his hand and explained softly to Xie Bi'an on the side.

"There are very few people who are so trustworthy." Xie Bi'an sighed and said, "There are many bastards in the world who swagger and deceive in the name of Buddhism and Taoism, but there are very few monks like this. ”

"Scarcity is expensive." Fan Wusu shrugged, "Not only in the world, but also in the world, how many immortals in the world and eight wildernesses don't think about learning after inheriting the throne of their parents, just waiting to eat and drink every day." ”

"That's right." Xie Bi'an touched his nose and heard a voice over there, so he didn't say anything else, and continued to watch quietly.

"The poor monk died, and the only obsession was the tail of the divine object in his arms, and now that the donor is coming, it should be returned to the original owner." Fa Yi's voice sounded again, with a kind of satisfaction that seemed to be after wishing, and then he let out a long sigh, "The poor monk has to make the respect help Bai to live for ten years, and now the mission has been completed, and I also ask the donor to take the dust to help the poor monk return to death." ”

Meng Qing knelt on the futon in front of Fa Yi and hesitated, looking up and about to say something, but was suddenly stunned when he saw the black tears flowing from Fa Yi's face.

"The Buddha is born in all things, I am in the face, people are in the face, all beings are in the face, and the long-lived people are in the face." There was another burst of empty Buddha horns from the direction of Fa Yi, Meng Qing's whole person was suddenly shocked, and he listened to Fa Yi continue: "Donor remember, impermanence, selflessness, and appearance, and you can't be obsessed with everything, so that you can let go of yourself and others." ”

After speaking, the dust has not been taken away by Meng Qing, and the monk who originally looked like he was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed has aged rapidly, his skin has gradually turned to ashes, revealing the white bones under the skin, and when a gust of wind blows, it will be scattered into ashes and disappear into the air.

"Don't be obsessed...... Meng Qing didn't know when tears flowed from his face, all that appeared in his mind was the tragic image of the Meng family and the Yin family being wiped out, as well as Yin Xiu's blinded eyes and what Yin Xiu said when he came out of Yin Xiu's room, 'Nothing else'.

You can't be too attached, but how can he not be attached?
