Chapter 9: Past and Present Lives
When Ah Miao saw the abbot of Kongwen, he blurted out a sentence of "grandpa", because the abbot was too much like Ah Miao's grandfather in his previous life, except for the fact that he had no hair, he looked exactly like his grandfather, I saw Ah Miao rush to the abbot, picked up the abbot's leg and began to cry very much, tears mixed with snot wiped on the monk's robe of the abbot of Kongwen, and the little novice who led Ah Miao over was stunned, why was this female benefactor so excited?
The abbot looked at Ah Miao with a smile, touched Ah Miao's head, said "idiot", and said to the little novice: "Shui Jing, go and twist a veil." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Yes, Abbot." Xiao Shami respectfully retreated, and at this time Ah Miao also reacted, grandpa left him a few years ago, and he had already arrived in another world, how could he see grandpa, he was holding the abbot master of the temple. So Ah Miao wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, and saluted the abbot with red eyes: "Ah Miao has seen the abbot." ”
"Hehe, little doll, do you remember who I am?" The abbot smiled again and touched Ah Miao's head and asked softly.
Seeing Ah Miao looking at him blankly, the abbot knew that Ah Miao still hadn't remembered, and just as he wanted to speak, there was a knock at the door.
"Abbot, the veil is here." The little novice moved very quickly, and in just two sentences, he wrung a handkerchief, and there was still a little heat on the handkerchief, presumably hot water.
"Give it to this little donor, Shui Jing, you go down first, I have something to say to this little donor." The abbot sat down on the meditation mat again and motioned for Shui Jing to give the veil to Ah Miao.
Ah Miao was stunned, after taking the handkerchief, he applied a handkerchief to his eyes, and immediately felt much more comfortable, and then took off the handkerchief, and peeked at the abbot who had already sat down, it was too much like a grandfather, Ah Miao thought. In Ah Miao's previous life, he had the best relationship with his grandfather, because Ah Miao can be said to have been raised by his grandfather, Ah Miao's parents died in a car accident when Ah Miao was in elementary school, and he has been following his grandfather ever since, and he will only go to his grandmother's house during the summer vacation, but because his grandfather is always very strict, every time his grandmother looks at Ah Miao, she thinks of her hard-working daughter, so Ah Miao actually doesn't like to be at her grandmother's house, just because her grandparents only have a daughter from Ah Miao's mother, and Ah Miao has become the spiritual sustenance of the three old people on both sides of the family, Grandpa always has a serious face, hoping that he will inherit his career as a judge, grandma in addition to staring at Ah Miao's face in a daze is to spoil Ah Miao, only grandpa, and still treat Ah Miao as before, if he gets into trouble, he will fight, his grades will improve, and he will be praised if he has done good deeds, so Ah Miao likes to be with his grandfather the most.
"Idiot, don't wake up yet." Just as Miao was immersed in his thoughts, he heard the abbot's mellow voice again. "Do you know how you got here?"
"Come with my grandma." Ah Miao didn't expect that the abbot knew that he didn't belong to this world, or that he wasn't sure if the abbot knew, so he said cautiously, and glanced at the abbot again after speaking.
"Hehe, do you want to go back?" The abbot smiled and asked again, at this time Ah Miao understood a little that the abbot should be the one in the know, so he respectfully kowtowed to the abbot three times and said, "Please teach me, master." ”
The abbot suddenly smiled, looked at Ah Miao seriously, Ah Miao looked at him, and after a long time, the abbot sighed and said, "That's it, you get up, speaking of which, this matter is that my Tangshan Temple can't stand you." ”
Ah Miao listened to the abbot's words, and became even more foggy. "What are you talking about, Abbot?"
The abbot was silent for a long time, looked at Ah Miao's small stature, stood in front of him a little timidly, and sighed softly, "Do you want to go back or stay here?" ”
"How do I get back?" I still want to go back, although everyone in the Liu family is very good to them and loves them like babies, but this is not their home after all, and Ah Miao can't become a little Miao, besides, Ah Miao is here, where did the real little Miao go? Ah Miao always has the illusion of robbing others of their happiness.
"Want to know how you got here?" The abbot asked again, and Miao nodded.
"Come with me." The abbot beckoned to Ah Miao and walked towards the inner hall, Ah Miao thought about it and followed with his calves. Until he walked to a desk, the abbot knocked rhythmically on the wooden fish on the left side of the desk, and after a while, a secret passage appeared behind the desk, and the abbot picked up the candle, looked at Ah Miao and said "Come with me".
Walking here, Ah Miao was a little scared, hesitating and not daring to go forward, the abbot took two steps and looked back at Ah Miao and said, "Come along, it's okay." Perhaps knowing that Ah Miao was a little afraid, the abbot turned around and comforted, "It's okay." ”
I don't know what's going on, Ah Miao was still very scared, but after suddenly coming into contact with the abbot's eyes, he was suddenly full of courage and followed the abbot into the secret passage. Ah Miao followed the abbot and walked around for about half an hour, when a large meditation room suddenly appeared in front of him.
"You're here? What, come and see if I'm dead or not? The sound at the end of the room, like a broken hair dryer, was harsh and harsh, and if you listened closely, you could hear a hint of sarcasm. Suddenly there was such an ugly sound in the originally quiet room, and Ah Miao was startled, and took a few steps forward, approaching the abbot standing in front of him.
The abbot patted Ah Miao lightly on the shoulder, and said in the direction where the voice came from, "Kong Lin, are you still so obsessed? Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha, people's life span is determined, how can you do this? The abbot's voice was heartbroken.
"Hmph, old thing, that's nice, don't you want to prolong your life?" This time, the voice was a little clearer, Ah Miao should have heard it should be a woman's voice, but what did the abbot do with the woman in the secret room?
Ah Miao was thinking about it, and the abbot's voice calmed down a little more in his ears: "The abbot once warned me when he was alive, you have a bad heart, and you want me to restrain you well, but unfortunately I don't have the abbot's ability to see people, and I am addicted to medicine and ignore you for a long time, causing today's consequences, and I am also responsible." ”
"Ha, it's ridiculous, if you lose, you're defeated, what is there to say, you don't need to fake your kindness." The man also had a backbone when he heard it, and said it neatly, but after he finished speaking, he heard a cough, and after the cough, the man suddenly said: "No, there is the breath of a living person here, let me see who you have brought here." After the man finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent, and Ah Miao was a little frightened, and the abbot took his hand.
"This, this is the soul that snatched the body from me, ah~ I'm going to kill you, if it weren't for you, this body would already be mine." The man suddenly became agitated, and his voice became more and more harsh.
When Ah Miao heard this voice, he shrank behind the abbot again, and the abbot took Ah Miao in his wrist and said to the man: "Kong Lin, you have acted against the sky, robbed the bodies of innocent people, and tried to persecute their souls, I really can't tolerate you." ”
"Hahaha~Hahahaha~ I dared to do this and I had already prepared for the worst, I only hated, Guangxin's old immortal actually left you behind, my skills are not as good as others, I have nothing to say, whatever you do." After saying this, the man stopped making any sound, and Miao couldn't even hear the man's breathing.
"For the rest of your life, you can repent of your mistakes here." The abbot didn't seem to have anything to say, and after a long time, after saying such a sentence, he led Ah Miao back, from beginning to end, Ah Miao didn't see the person hidden in the darkness, and the abbot seemed to take himself on this trip, just to make it clear to the man.
Out of the secret passage, the abbot put the candle in his hand, and after returning to the inner hall, he waved his hand to Ah Miao and said, "Sit down." ”
Ah Miao sat down obediently, and stopped talking, all this he heard today was really curious.
The abbot looked at Ah Miao for a while, and then said to himself: "Tangshan Temple is a jungle of ten directions, and the abbot has always been a virtuous person, and the one with medical skills is the next abbot." Kong Lin is the elder sister of the old man, is the old man came to Tangshan Temple three years later, her medical skills are much higher than me, and her understanding is better than me, but the abbot of Guangxin at that time said that Kong Lin was disturbed by the mortal dust, and could not calm down, and later even directly said that Kong Lin's heart was not correct, and he was afraid of insulting the name of Tangshan Temple for hundreds of years, and was not suitable to be the abbot. ”
The abbot glanced at Ah Miao, and then said: "After Lao Wei became the abbot, she studied medical skills and managed Tangshan Temple, and her energy on Kong Lin was much less. As long as you find a person who was born at the same time in the same year, month, and day with you, and has the same numerology, on the day when the yin qi is the heaviest on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, you can tune that person's soul with yourself to achieve the purpose of changing your life, and the person chosen by Kong Lin is the master of your body. By the time I knew about it, it was too late, and Kong Lin's soul exchange technique had already been cast, but what she didn't expect was that in the distant time and space, there was another person who was more similar to the numerology of your original master, and this person was you. ”
"Me?" When I heard this before, Ah Miao didn't know why the abbot would tell him this, but now he suddenly heard himself, could this be the reason why he came here?
"Yes, you, when I knew about this, the original Ah Miao and your main soul had been drawn out, I was not good at learning, and I couldn't let you each return to their places, and at that time, the iron box you were sitting in collided with another iron box, and there was no way back to the sky, I saw that there was a pregnant lady in the other iron box, and the child in the womb had been stillborn, so I took action and sent the original Ah Miao into the stillborn."
At this time, what Ah Miao heard was tantamount to a fantasy for her, her two eyes were bigger than the copper bell, and the abbot touched her hair again, and then said: "But your soul, I don't know what to do, because your soul is already very weak at that time, if I lead you here, I don't know what will happen, but it is absolutely impossible to leave you there, and later, I thought that there is a way to bring you over and send you into your current body, but Kong Lin took advantage of my inattention to want to harm you, I really can't think about it, so I used the soul incense left to me by the abbot of Guangxin, this incense is made of relics left by the abbots of the past dynasties, and the abbot of Guangxin gave me the one left by the abbot of Taixu in the previous generation, the incense can summon the soul, and it is the soul that best fits the body, you are more suitable for this body than Kong Lin, so..."
The abbot said that he would not say any more, but needless to say, Ah Miao also knew, so his soul entered Xiao Miao's body, and Mrs. Kong Lin tried all her best to be empty, and her soul left her body to compete for other people's bodies, which took a lot of energy, so Ah Miao's voice was so weak, this is really too clever to calculate and mistook Qingqing's life.
"In my world, I'm dead, am I?" Ah Miao sighed for a while and suddenly thought of himself, if he also passed away, what would his grandparents do? Although one of them is strict with themselves, and the other wants to find the shadow of their daughter from themselves, it is undeniable that they love themselves very much, if they really leave, can they really afford to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person for the second time?
"There's really nothing the old man can do about this." The abbot shook his head when he heard this, and said heavily: "However, your relatives in that world have adopted your original soul, which is the fetus that has already died. The abbot suddenly said, "Because the mother is dead, the fetus will also die, but I sent the child who was in you into the body of the fetus, although the memory is gone, but at last I survived, the mother of the fetus is dead, and your relatives have adopted the fetus after burying you." ”
Hearing the abbot say this, Ah Miao finally felt better, "So, abbot, I really can't go back, can I?" ”
"If one day I can find a dying body that matches your soul, I can give it a try." The abbot folded his hands together, recited a sentence of "Amitabha Buddha", and then said: "Donor, this matter is the fault of my Tangshan Temple, if you have any difficulties in the future, as long as I can help Tangshan Temple, I will not shirk." The last sentence was sonorous and powerful, but it made Ah Miao at a loss.
"Master, you are serious, and thank you for saving me. Ah Miao is not an unreasonable person, he still knows the truth that there is a debtor, this matter has nothing to do with the abbot, and Ah Miao thanks the abbot for saving his life. As he spoke, he wanted to kneel down and kowtow to the abbot.
"I can't help it, the donor doesn't blame the donor's big belly, my people in Tangshan Temple have made such a big mistake, it's my incompetence." The abbot said and sighed, Ah Miao looked at it and didn't know what to do, in fact, think about it the other way, it's not bad now, I have the love of the Liu family here, that life, little Ah Miao can get the love of my grandparents, Ah Miao, don't worry, I will definitely be filial to your father, you are on that side, you must live a good life.
