Chapter 3 This monk is not ordinary
In the late spring, at noon, the sky in Bianjing is already very hot, the sun is shining, the water is steaming, and the south wind is blowing, wet, with the freshness of grass and leaves......
Su Xiaocai breathed in such air, not that he felt that the air was fragrant, but that this broken box was too heavy, and he followed the footsteps of the old monk and walked breathlessly......
People are really weird sometimes.
Su Xiaocai thought to himself that he was not a rash person, but the decision in front of him was made in an instant!
Moreover, he felt very happy, and he didn't know why, but he didn't think that the merchant or monk in front of him, who even had doubts about his identity, was a bad person.
Perhaps, this has something to do with the appearance of this guy who grins to the root of his ears, that fat face, very happy, and does not think of anything unpleasant!
In this way, Su Xiaocai suddenly had a master!
And he happily carried the heavy cargo box on his back and followed!
Su Xiaocai may not know that on the "Heavenly Beauty" Huan Lou behind him, the window opened again, revealing that bright face like the morning glow, and watched Su Xiaocai walk away......
Su Xiaocai followed the master and staggered forward.
"Master...... It's so heavy......"
"Amitabha, if you can't put down the matter of eating, then you must move forward with a load! No matter when and where, this is a constant truth! ”
"Speak well, don't summarize everything in a big way, okay? I'm annoyed with preaching! ”
"Oh, that's right! I'm used to being a teacher, and I always like to tell people big things...... In its name, it preaches Buddhism...... Hahahaha! "The old monk's mouth is cracked to the root of his ear again!
"Looks like you're really a monk! I wonder where Master is practicing? Which sect and which sect are cultivating? ”
"Between heaven and earth, they are all temples of cultivation for teachers! All the methods of non-action are the methods to be practiced for the teacher! ”
"Oh, can you not talk so lofty about living on the streets! Hahaha......"
"Tall?"
"It's high-end and atmospheric!"
"Hahahaha...... As a teacher, wandering is a lofty thing! Whatever you want, you can do it......"
"Hey, come on! Just now he said that in order to eat, he had to carry a heavy load, but now he says that he can do whatever he wants......"
"It's not a contradiction!"
"Then I want to ......"
"Now you don't have to think about it, just think for the teacher! You listen to the teacher's arrangement......"
"Alright! It's up to you to ......."
The two walked for a while, and they were already seven or eight miles away from Bianjing, leaving the official road and turning into a village road.
Bianjing is located in the land of the Central Plains, an endless horse and a flat river, the surrounding villages are connected, the Qianmo is vertical and horizontal, the chickens and dogs are barking, the cattle in the fields are walking slowly, the farmers are shouting loudly, and the children are playing with each other in the village road...... What an idyllic setting!
Su Xiaocai hadn't seen such a leisurely picture for many years, and couldn't help but slow down......
"Doesn't that feel poetic?" The old monk stretched out a hand and drew an arc in front of him, referring to the entire countryside and village.
"It's a little bit!"
"The farmer spent a year watering a piece of greenery into a golden harvest with sweat, which is indeed a very poetic picture, but at the end of the year, this painting will inevitably be rendered by blood......
The land in front of you now is a land that raises people and a land that eats people. ”
"Uh...... I don't understand ......."
"You follow the work for the teacher, and after a while, you will understand what is going on!"
The two walked a long way one after the other, and the village road became narrower and narrower, and the road was overgrown with grass, and it looked like it was inaccessible.
The leisurely idyllic scenery in front of it is gone, and the land is largely barren...... Finally, a village appeared in front of me, but many of the houses in this village had collapsed, and some of them looked dilapidated...... For this village, there is no one walking on the village road......
"Isn't that normal here?" Su Xiaocai said.
"You see it all?"
"It's so close to Jingshi, it's said that every part of this place is very prosperous. But obviously, this place is extremely dilapidated, and there are probably not many people living in this village, right? The best fields outside the village, which should be the most sought-after, are now barren......
So everything here reveals a very strange look......"
"It's haunted! It scared everyone away, so it was deserted......"
"How can such a ridiculous thing happen?"
"Hahahaha......" the guy grinned, "It's not ridiculous, this place was originally the same as the pastoral landscape painting you saw earlier, but this painting here has been rendered in blood, and now it is rendered like this!"
"It seems that there is a very tragic story in this......"
"Actually, it's not tragic at all, it's not exciting, it's just a matter of a bully forcing a few tenant farmers to death......
I'll tell you about these things in the future......
Alright, now we're there! Come with me! ”
Su Xiaocai raised his eyes and saw that there was the only brick building in this village, but it was not a private house, nor a landlord's old rich family, but a temple!
"Master, this is your temple?" Su Xiaocai read the words on the plaque, "Zhengyi Xuantan Temple...... No, Master, how does this sound like a Taoist temple? ”
"This was originally a Taoist temple, and it was dedicated to the Black Tiger Xuantan!"
"Black Tiger Xuantan? Zhao Gongming? ”
"In the future, don't call Zhao Gongming in front of people, maybe you will be dragged to play the board!"
"Oh?"
"Zhao family, official surname! Do you know why everywhere there are people now, Zhao Gongming is enshrined? Because this god is the ancestor of the official family!
There are some things in the middle, and I will tell you about them slowly...... Now it's important for us to get down to business......"
"What business do we have to do?"
"Of course, put the crate down and show you a treasure!" The monk grinned to the root of his ears and said with a smile.
The box was put down, and the monk took out a stack of paper with words written and signed on it.
"What is this?"
"Title Deed!"
"How do you have so many title deeds?"
"There is no one in this village, and I bought all the land here!"
"Oh my God, you're a monk, and you actually bought so much land?"
"I'm a monk who doesn't have a degree! So I can buy so many ......."
"So you're a fake monk? Not a monk? Are they normal people of the Great Song Dynasty? ”
"Don't say it so badly! The poor monk is dedicated to the Buddha, and the degree is just a piece of paper, without this thing, it does not prevent the poor monk from reciting the Buddha and having an epiphany, and purifying all sentient beings...... Hahahaha!"
"Huh? No matter what, you're still a fake monk? ”
"Amitabha, you kid has an obsession in your heart!"
"Greed and infatuation...... You have such a thick stack of title deeds in your hand, you actually tell me about your obsession? Haha......"
"So, you have an obsession in your heart! Before, you were obsessed with the degree, and now you are obsessed with the title deed!"
