Chapter 494: Lay Disciple!

The abbot asked me to introduce myself, in fact, he wanted to understand my character, because I was a traitor like Jiese, so I became more cautious about teaching swordsmanship.

From the old abbot's speech and tone, I can also see that he has not really achieved the four major emptiness, and he also has the vision of making Biyun Temple brilliant again.

I am quite emotional about Biyun Temple, how did the former Protector Temple fall to such a depressed state.

Since Biyun Temple is taboo in terms of royalty, most people do not have a good impression of Biyun Temple, and it is even more difficult for Biyun Temple to rebuild its glory.

I introduced myself in front of the abbot, and I didn't dare to have any exaggerated elements, after all, looking at the old abbot's age was at least sixty or seventy years old, and he was a character who was so old that he was deceived, it was not looking for death.

Introducing myself is extremely boring, saying that I was born, at what age I went to elementary school, how I studied, how I was in junior high school, until I was in high school, I joined the South Gate, and how I met Brother Yao and Feige, defeated the opponents one by one, and finally became the current Marshal of the Brotherhood West Road.

Although the words were simple, but the sound was extremely thrilling, I had several ups and downs in the south gate, several times to be expelled, and finally returned to the south gate, every time there was a progress in the ups and downs, the abbot heard my words, and his eyes that had been cloudy began to become fine, and seemed to be interested in me.

After I finished my introduction, the abbot actually asked me to withdraw first, and I had something to talk to Brother Yao in private.

I knew that the abbot probably wanted to get to know me better with Brother Yao, so I respectfully withdrew from the abbot's room at the moment.

Standing in the corridor outside the abbot, I felt the silence of this temple with a lot of history, and now the end has passed, and all the monks in the temple have returned to the dormitory to rest, and the huge temple looks like a deserted house at this time.

I seem to feel the tranquility here, I haven't felt like this for a long time, the last time I felt like this was when I failed the first college entrance examination and rested in my hometown, when I had a cow at home, I went to the mountains to graze the cows, the cows grazed on the grass, and I took a nap on the hillside.

Later, when I joined Nanmen, my life changed a lot, fighting is the theme of my life, defeating strong enemies seems to be my mission, and such quietness seems rare.

People are like this, when I was a nameless boy in the past, I envied the scenery of the bosses, and when I became the boss, I began to miss the quiet life in the past.

Thinking of this, I can't help but laugh, am I considered a cheap skin?

I wanted to walk around the temple, but I was afraid of violating the taboo of Biyun Temple, so I could only wait in the courtyard outside.

Every minute I spend here, it feels more like a secluded paradise, as if it were two different worlds from the world we live in.

There is a lot of tradition in the temple, there are no modern appliances, including the simplest electric lights, and they still use candles and oil lamps that have been obsolete.

The Green Lantern Ancient Buddha sounds so desirable, but how many people can really accept it?

Brother Yao and the abbot talked inside for an hour, and finally when I was about to lose my patience, the door opened.

Brother Yao walked out with a smile on his face, I saw Brother Yao's appearance, and I was happy, could it be that the abbot agreed? Hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Brother Yao, what did the abbot say?" ”

Brother Yao said with a smile: "The abbot promised to make an exception for you once, he could teach you sword techniques, and he would also accept you as a lay disciple!" ”

"Really! Impossible! ”

I can't believe that Brother Yao actually said that the abbot wanted to accept me as a lay disciple, and he was already very satisfied if he could make an exception to teach me swordsmanship, but this was an unexpected joy.

Brother Yao said: "The abbot is a master in the world, he is the real unfathomable, he has only accepted two apprentices in his life, and you are the third." ”

I was curious: "The abbot has accepted two apprentices, it should be amazing." ”

Brother Yao sighed when he heard my words, and said: "The abbot's first apprentice was unfortunately killed when he was traveling outside, and the second abbot was completely accepted out of compassion. The abbot accepts you as a closed disciple, and there are three special requirements. One, you can't claim to be a disciple of Biyun Temple, two, you have to help Biyun Temple clean up the portal and get rid of the scum of the abstinence, three, this is not the time to talk about it now, you will ask the abbot later. ”

I was surprised: "What is the third condition, so mysterious?" ”

Brother Yao said: "Anyway, it won't hurt you, you will know later." I have agreed to all three conditions for you, you can go in and kowtow now. ”

Although I was still wondering what Brother Yao had talked about with the abbot, so that the abbot actually accepted me as a lay disciple, I also knew that the opportunity was rare and I had to seize it, so I immediately followed Brother Yao into the abbot's meditation room.

When the abbot saw me, he had a rare smile on his face and said, "You're here." ”

I didn't know what to say, so I said, "I'm coming." ”

Brother Yao smiled and said, "Today is a special case, so everything is simple to apprentice, you kneel down and kowtow nine times, even if you have done the apprenticeship." ”

Originally, according to the rules of Buddhism, the etiquette of apprenticeship was extremely cumbersome, but I am just a lay disciple, so I don't need so many etiquettes.

When I heard Brother Yao's words, I immediately knelt down and knocked my head nine times.

The abbot said yes again and again, and then asked me to get up, and after I stood up, Brother Xun Siyao donated the sesame oil money, and I should also express it.

In fact, when I was in the Daxiong Hall during the day, I had the intention of donating money, but at that time I felt that I had no reason to donate money, and I was afraid that the abbot would be unhappy.

Now that I have apprenticed, it is also time to express my expression.

Brother Yao donated 300,000 yuan, and I wanted to donate more, but considering that it might make Brother Yao feel shameless, I only took out a check book, wrote 300,000 yuan, and presented it respectfully, saying, "Master, this is a little bit of the disciple's heart." ”

The abbot looked at me and said, "I didn't accept you as a lay disciple for money. ”

I said, "This is a little sesame oil money donated to the temple, since Master has accepted me as an apprentice, this place is like my home, and I want to contribute a little to my own home, what's wrong?" ”

When the abbot heard my words, he smiled and said, "No wonder Chen Yao is full of praise for you, it's really good." Well, it's too late tonight, and I'll start teaching you something tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes, Master."

I said respectfully.

The abbot immediately closed his eyes, looking like he was resting himself.

Brother Yao gestured to me, and we respectfully exited the room and helped the abbot close the door.

When I returned to the dormitory where we lived, I couldn't help but be curious and inquire about the abbot.

Brother Yao told me that the abbot is seventy-eight years old, although he is very old, but he is still vigorous, no less than a young man, I am lucky to be able to become the abbot's lay disciple this time, if I can learn something from the abbot, I will be of infinite use in my life.

At the same time, Brother Yao also told me that the disciples who became abbots were also very senior in Biyun Temple, except for the monks on duty in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, the rest were my juniors, including Brother Yao.

When I heard Brother Yao's words, I couldn't help laughing, and said Brother Yao, you are not a loss, and you will become my nephew in the future.

Brother Yao said that the teacher and nephew are nothing, and the most important thing is that I can learn something.

Worshipping the abbot as a teacher is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime good thing, but there are also many troublesome places, I am now the marshal of the West Road of the Brotherhood, in charge of the Wolf Hall and the Bear and Snake Halls, in charge of all the affairs of the Brotherhood in Xicheng District, so it is impossible to leave for too long, so as not to change.

Brother Yao said that if I stayed in Biyun Temple to study hard, he could go back to the Wolf Hall and help me watch it for the time being.

I thought to myself that Brother Yao would help me take charge, and I could rest assured, after all, Shi Zhao and Xiao Tianfan are still a little lacking in the handling of the overall situation, far less sophisticated than Brother Yao, so I can take advantage of this time to strengthen myself, and when I go out of the mountain again, I shouldn't be like before, just a big brother-level figure can press me to fight.
