Chapter 2: Eternal Life
Lin Feiying met the abbot Yongneng very smoothly, and under the guidance of Yongneng, she came out to find the person she was looking for.
"Master Abbot, thank you for your care and teachings to our young master in the past 18 years, and our Chen Foundation will donate 30 million to Tianlong for the renovation of the Thousand Buddha Hall on this year's Obon Festival." Lin Feiying expressed the meaning of the Chen family to the abbot Yongneng, and Lin Feiying has been accepted as a goddaughter by Chen Guanzhong, the current helmsman of the Chen Foundation, and represents the Chen family to the outside world.
When he heard the first half of what Lin Feiying said, the corners of Yongneng's mouth twitched twice concealedly, this young master of the Chen family is recognized as a "demon" in Tianlong Temple...... But when he heard the back, he smiled again, and folded his hands and saluted Lin Feiying: "Thank you for Lord Chen's generosity, although Yongsheng is a warrior monk, he has a relationship with the Buddha, and he is deeply familiar with the principles of Buddhism, and I am not as good as him when it comes to arguing about Zen opportunities." It's just that his heart has not gone, maybe the earthly world is more suitable for him to practice, as long as he has the Buddha in his heart, where can he not participate in Zen? It doesn't really make a difference inside or outside the temple. ”
"That's what the master said." Lin Feiying nodded slightly at Yongneng's words, but she didn't think so in her heart. She doesn't believe in Buddhism, and she has read countless people, so she hates sanctimonious people the most. Like Yongneng, who is full of benevolence and morality, Lin Feiying only thinks he is farting.
The two walked forward side by side, and since Lin Feiying had nothing else to say, they both remained silent. Until the place where the stele forest was, Lin Feiying's uncontrollable eyebrows jumped twice, and those who knew her well would know that this was a manifestation of her anger.
It turned out that the enlightened monk who had come from Nantianlong to bow down step by step was still kneeling forward, and the little monk with evil spirit between his eyebrows was still talking to himself: "Isn't it crazy to be able to bow down from Nantianlong step by step......"
Lin Feiying went to find the abbot for half an hour, so the monk is still in the stele forest, how is it possible? If it is at this speed, I am afraid that he will not be able to reach the North Tianlong in his lifetime when he starts from the Southern Heavenly Dragon!
These two liars!
Lin Feiying's face was cold, if it weren't for the fact that there were more important things today, and the abbot of Yongneng was by her side, she would definitely give these two liars a good look.
As soon as the monk raised his eyes and saw the abbot coming, he was so shocked that he stood up with an "oops". The pilgrims and tourists who were watching were all inexplicable, and Yongsheng hurriedly asked beside him, "What's wrong with you?" Is it a stomachache? Have diarrhea? ”
"Yes, yes, my stomach hurts......" The eminent monk who got the excuse hurriedly covered his stomach and ran with his head down, and the pilgrims and tourists saw that there was no excitement to see, so they all talked and dispersed.
Yongsheng also just wanted to walk in the crowd, but was stopped by the abbot Yongneng: "Senior Brother Yongsheng, where are you going!" ”
Eternal life?
This name was like a thunderbolt on Lin Feiying's head on a sunny day, Lin Feiying's face suddenly turned sluggish, it turned out that the young master of the Chen family who came to pick him up turned out to be this little liar......
"There is no place to go, there is no origin, there is no place in the inside, inside and in the middle; A crystal is flawless, and the light is full of people. Yongsheng put his hands together and slowly turned around with a clear expression on his face, and greeted Yongneng: "Senior Brother Yongneng." ”
"Uh......" Yongneng blushed, it was not the first time he had lost to Yongsheng, and he quickly diverted the topic: "Senior brother, what are you and Yanxin doing there?" ”
Yanxin fell and cried out in pain while holding his stomach, so he attracted onlookers. I was just passing by and happened to see it. Yongsheng had already seen Lin Feiying, but he didn't see it, as if he was talking to himself: "Don't say that others are short and long, and you will suffer if you say it; If you can close your mouth and hide your tongue deeply, you are the first party of self-cultivation. ”
Concubine Lin looked as usual, but she snorted coldly in her heart, this little liar wants me not to tell the abbot. It's shameless to use Buddhism!
However, she knew that Yongsheng was the person she wanted to pick up, so naturally she would not expose it again, so it would be both a slap in the face of the abbot Yongneng and a slap in the face of their Chen family.
I didn't know what Yongsheng was talking about, so Yongneng had to avoid the topic again and explained to Yongsheng: "Senior Brother Yongsheng, you already know your life experience, and tomorrow will be your eighteenth birthday, and you can see your family." This female benefactor is the one who came to pick you up, and when you leave Tianlong, Senior Brother, I will be considered to have fulfilled the last wish of the master and his old man......"
Eternal life looked as usual, and did not react excessively. He had known that there would be such a day, so he was mentally prepared.
When Concubine Lin was waiting to see what tricks Eternal was still tossing, Eternal Life was silently going out. Lin Feiying and Yongneng followed behind Yongsheng and walked out of the Celestial Dragon, but they went to Tallinn to the west of the Celestial Dragon.
There are hundreds of ancient pagodas here, all of which are the tomb towers of the monks of Tianlong Temple. An old monk with white hair, holding a big broom in his hand, slowly sweeping the fallen leaves and debris on the ground, gray monk's robe, face full of ravines and lonely back are all integrated with this ancient temple Tallinn, and it is natural.
Yongsheng walked over first, and bowed to the old monk with his hands folded first, but the old monk still swept the ground slowly, ignoring Yongsheng.
Yongsheng didn't think it was wrong, and after worshipping the old monk, he walked to one of the ancient towers and knelt down reverently, with his hands folded and his eyes lowered, and he didn't know what was in his mouth.
Yongneng explained to Lin Feiying, who was confused: "Eternal life is bidding farewell to our master, Xingde Zen Master. ”
"Oh......" Lin Feiying nodded slightly, and her impression of immortality had improved a little. The mourning, sadness, and feelings on her face when she saw Yongsheng could not be pretended, and it was obvious that the feelings of master and apprentice were very deep.
After reciting, Yongsheng solemnly bowed three times, then got up and walked in front of Lin Feiying, and joined them and went directly in front of the mountain gate.
When I arrived at the gate of the mountain, I was looking at Yanxin's probe, and I saw that Yongneng was still so frightened that he retracted his head back to the door. But he was seen by eternal life and shouted: "Yanxin, come out!" ”
Yanxin was called out of his whereabouts, so he had to come out and give a salute to Yongsheng: "Uncle Shi, you are leaving......"
"Uncle Shi is leaving, but don't be lazy because of this, so as not to delay the business!" Eternal scolded.
Delayed business? Do you continue to pretend to be a senior monk of Nantianlong and bow down step by step to cheat money? Lin Feiying's impression of immortality was slightly better again, but she just sneered and said nothing.
Then she glanced sharply at Yongsheng and took out all the money on his body, as big as a hundred to as small as one yuan, which was obviously the money he cheated today. To Lin Feiying's surprise, Yongsheng stuffed all the money to Yanxin and said a few words, but Lin Feiying didn't hear it, but Lin Feiying could guess that maybe she was thinking wrong......
"Yanxin, there are still more than two thousand to buy a home oxygen machine for the abbot, the abbot is old, and he has committed two cerebral thrombosis, I hope it will help his body......" Yongsheng stuffed all the money he received today into Yanxin's sleeve, and quietly took out a card to Yanxin: "The previous money is all in it." ”
"I know Uncle Shi'......"
"Also, this is the mahogany amulet I made for the old woman and aunt who often come to Shangxiang, and I personally consecrated it. If they ask me where I have been...... Let's just say that I've traveled far and wide, and I don't know how long it will take to come back. Speaking of this, Eternal Life's voice was a little gloomy, this thousand-year-old temple really carried too many memories for him......
"I know Uncle Shi'......"
"In addition......" Yongsheng was about to continue to speak, but was interrupted by Yanxin, Yanxin's eyes were a little red: "Uncle Shi...... Can we go see you......"
"There's a chance." Yongsheng patted Yanxin's shoulder, and suddenly smiled: "It's a happy event that I'm gone, I guess everyone will collectively recite Ami Tofu!" ”
"Uncle Shi......" Yanxin watched Yongsheng leave so freely, without even playing the luggage roll, and there was really no obstacle to coming and going. It's just that the back looks so lonely and lonely.
