Chapter 4 Futu

There is a place directly west of the Great You Empire, which is called Qinlu; In the westernmost part of the land of Qinlu, there is a temple, which is called Futu.

Futu Temple is located on the peaks and peaks of the deep and steep protrusions of the mountain, although it is far less than the majestic and magnificent spirit of the two mountains of "Dragon and Tiger, Wudang", it is also considered to be the pavilion and the temple are readily available, the temple outline is surrounded by green shade and flowers, and the temple is antique and solemn.

However, except for the fact that the Futu Temple is slightly inferior to these two places in terms of architectural outline and natural scene, it is not inferior in other aspects, just like the "faith" that is most valued in Buddhism.

Because it is the first temple of Buddhism in the Western Regions into the Central Plains, it has naturally become the holy place in the minds of Buddhist believers, and the temple is also full of incense smoke every day, and when the worshippers come here, they will put their hands together, walk three steps and kneel, five steps and one bow, seven steps and one bow to the Buddha Gate ceremony, so year after year, day after day, so that the stone slab in front of the temple door is concave.

There is a cliff cave behind the Futu Temple, the cliff cave is usually not special, it is on the gentle slope of the peak, there are some wild grasses and flowers on the gentle slope, there are a few colorful butterflies and bees among the flowers and plants, there is a tray at the entrance of the cave, and there is a vegetarian meal that has been cooled long on the tray...... At noon, a little monk came to the cave with a tray, and after taking a look at the tray at the entrance of the cave in the morning, he took the vegetarian food on the original tray and put it on it again. After doing all this, the little monk picked up the tray and prepared to leave, but the moment he turned his head, he couldn't help but glance back into the hole. The entrance to the cave was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly, but the little monk was a little unwilling, just because there was his faith in it.

The belief of ordinary believers lies in the temple of Futu Temple, in the worship of the gods and Buddhas in the temple, and in the comforting words of their group of monks...... Of course, it is not very accurate to say this, but it is more accurate to say that their faith lies in the monks in the cave, because they are not ordinary monks, they are Buddhas, and they are Buddhas in the world.

Yes, the monks in this cave are unintentional.

Since a few months ago, after he slaughtered the group of monks in Xiangguo Temple in the imperial capital, he said goodbye to Mu Qiuhuang and returned here, and since the day he returned to Futu Temple, he has been alone in this cliff cave. And from the beginning of that day, the little monk was arranged by the abbot to be responsible for delivering food to Wuxin, but what made the little monk feel strange was that there were still people to eat the food during the first time, and in the last period of time, the food was not moved, and after careful calculation, it was already seven seven forty-nine days, and normal people would be hungry and exhausted if they didn't eat for three days, and if this time was longer, they would be starved to death. Therefore, when the little monk found that the meal was not touched on the first day, he hurriedly reported to the abbot, but the abbot only smiled slightly, and said something like "the Buddha needs to cross the ......" and so on, the little monk felt that this was too profound, but did not dare to ask rashly, so he had to come back to perform the duties arranged by the abbot to him, although the food has not been touched for so many days, but he still has not been lazy, every time it comes to the meal, he will come with fresh food, and then replace the food that has not been touched at all.

Just as the little monk found nothing again, sighed and turned around to leave, he suddenly found two monks behind him.

The monk who held a copper tin staff in one hand and a rosary in the other was the great monk ~ Juezen monk who went to Beiyu with no intention at the beginning.

The other monk has long earlobes and long eyebrows, but he has no beard, and his eyebrows have even hung down to the tip of his nose, and his eyebrows are pure white as snow, and the most prominent thing is his eyes, which look dark and watery, like a child's eyes, which do not match the old wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and this monk does not have a sangha hat on his head, nor does he have a robe on his body, except for the pure white monk's robe and straw sandals that must be worn, there is only the string of Buddhist beads in his hand. However, judging from his casual posture of holding the Buddha beads, he seems to have a disgusted face...... Although he seems to be quite old and kind-hearted, it is impossible to associate him with the legendary attained monk. But having said that, this monk is a real monk, one of the only two remaining achievements of the "Jue" character generation in Futu Temple, and the senior brother of the Juezen monk ~ Juese.

"I've seen two uncles and ancestors." When the little monk saw the two of them, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.

The monk nodded in response, and the monk he called the abbot stepped forward and touched the little monk's big bald head, and said with a smile: "Bald head and bald head don't worry about rain, others have umbrellas, you have bald heads, ...... you."

"Uncle Ancestor......" The little monk cried out aggrievedly, obviously accustomed to this matter.

The Zen staff in the hand of the monk stomped lightly on the ground, obviously reminding him that Juese's approach was a little undignified.

But who knew that when Juese saw this, he actually gave up the little monk's head and touched the head of the Juezen monk.

Of course, the Juezen monk was dissatisfied with this, and with a slight stomp of his feet, the whole body was actually shifted back three feet...... and with a "snap", Juese's hand still slapped on the head of the Juezen monk.

Seeing that the monk couldn't dodge, he no longer dodged, but his face couldn't help but darken.

After rubbing two handfuls of the head of the monk Juezen, Juese said to himself: "The feel of the big monk's bald head is not as good as the feel of the little monk's bald head. ”

As soon as Juese's words came out, the Juezen monks couldn't help but look at each other angrily.

"What are you staring at? Senior brother touched your head, that hurt you, you still dare to hide? Don't forget that you were taught by my senior brother, if you let you escape, how can you let my senior brother and me mix in front of these juniors? Jue Se said dissatisfied.

The poor Zen monk had a hidden illness and could not speak, so he had to turn his head away and ignore him.

Turning his head and looking at the little monk with a smile, he smiled and said, "Little monk, come here, let the old ancestor touch it twice." ”

Although the little monk was wronged, he did not dare to disobey, so he had to run over with a tray and hand over his head.

Juese smiled and put his hand on the little monk's head and rubbed it, and said, "It's still sensible...... The old ancestor of the Ming Dynasty asked the void to pass on the position of his abbot to you. ”

"Uncle Shi, I am fruitless......," the little monk explained in a low voice.

Jue Se said with a face full of indifference: "Oh, it turned out to be fruitless!" Then I will let the void see pass on the position of the first seat of his precept to you......"

Wuhua didn't dare to answer when she heard this, so she had to bow her head aggrievedly, everyone in the entire Futu Temple knew that this old ancestor loved to play the most, and he was not in shape on weekdays...... But he can't stand it, whether it is his cultivation or seniority, he is the highest in the temple, and the abbot and several other heads are either his nephews or his own apprentices...... Therefore, on weekdays, this group of monks can only hide when they see him, and if they can't hide, they have to suffer it, but fortunately, this old ancestor has no other bad habits except for touching people's heads.

Juese touched Wuhua's head and asked, "Why hasn't the void come yet?" Didn't he know that the Heartless Boy would be out of the customs today? ”

Juezen glanced at him helplessly, and said in his heart: "If it weren't for you, why wouldn't they have come for a long time?" ”

"What? Uncle Shi, you said that Senior Brother Wuxin is fine, and he will come out today? Wuhua said with a happy face.

"What are you worried about? He won't be okay if you have something, don't forget that he is a Buddha. ”

Juese opened his mouth and said, looked up at the cliff cave, and muttered to himself: "I'm afraid that after today, the unintentional little bald head will not be touchable?" ”

At this moment, three or four more monks and a group of monks walked towards this side.

"I've seen the abbot, I've seen all the uncles." Wuxin hurriedly said, but his head was still under Jue Se's hands, and he couldn't bow down.

"I've seen Uncle Shi."

"I've seen Master."

"I've seen Uncle Shi."

The virtual appearance and the group saluted to Juese and Juezen.

"You don't have to be polite!" Jue Se smiled and said, his eyes were in the void, the void, the void, and the void...... After glancing at several of their heads, they couldn't help frowning and reprimanded, "What kind of monk's hat do you wear in the summer?" I'm not afraid to cover the prickly heat......"

A few people had no choice but to accompany the smiling faces, and they were also aggrieved in their hearts, and said in their hearts: "If it weren't for your old man's special hobbies, why would we be here?" ”

……

Without letting everyone wait for a long time, after only about half a cup of tea, they saw that the inside of the cliff cave suddenly shone with golden light, and suddenly became bright, as if there was a round of sun in the cliff cave...... At this time, except for Jue Se, who was still looking into the cave with his eyes open, everyone else was directly pierced by the golden glittering light.

Fortunately, the light did not last, and after a moment of glittering, it disappeared, and then another person came out of the cave.

This person is none other than the Buddha in their mouth~ Wuxin.

Wuxin slowly walked out of the cliff cave and stood in the sun, except for the monk's clothes and boots on his body, which were a little tattered, the rest of the place was the same, still with red lips and white teeth...... Staying in the cliff cave for so many days not only did not say anything, but on the contrary, there was an ethereal aura all over the body.

"Have you ever broken your demons?" Juese couldn't help but ask.

Wuxin did not answer his words, but raised his head to look at the sun in the sky.

Seeing this, Juese and Juezen also looked at the sun with no intention.

Seeing this, the monks also looked towards the sun with the three of them, but at this time the sun was in a scorching state, making people unable to look at it directly, but for a moment, the monks could not bear the light of the sun, and lowered their heads one after another, even the monks of Juezen were no exception.

Only Jue Se was still the same, but after only looking at them for a while, he also withdrew his gaze.

And Wuxin still maintained the appearance he had just looked, and his body did not move.

After looking at Wuxin for a while, Jue Se couldn't help but restrain his casual appearance just now, and his face immediately became serious.
