Chapter 740: The Zen Master Gives the Name
As soon as the Zen monks cleaned the Tianwang Palace, Zhang Chongtian and his wife came to the temple with the boy who was picked up from the river, and they bypassed the Tianwang Palace, the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and went straight to the Great Compassion Pavilion at the back of the temple - the main hall dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Zhang Chongtian and Dou put incense on the incense table in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the Great Compassion Pavilion, and then knelt down three times and bowed nine times, praying sincerely to express their gratitude to Guanyin for sending their son. When they finished bowing, they straightened up and found that there was an abbot monk standing behind them, the idle Zen master.
Idle like an unpredictable prophet, he took the initiative to put together and said: "Zhang Tanyue has found a noble son, congratulations." “
Zhang Chong is witty every day, and he is an old acquaintance with the idle Zen master, so he deliberately said: "Okay, you abbot monk, why do you have no mouth?" My own son, how do you say that you have chosen? ”
The idle Zen master smiled faintly and said: "Tianhe is a wishful boat, and the appearance of Youtan is all fate. After that, the idle Zen master asked again, "Has your son ever had a name?" ”
Dou said: "Originally, our husband and wife came to the temple today, one is to burn incense and make vows, and to thank Guanyin Bodhisattva; The second is to ask you to give him a name so that he can grow up. Now that you have met a great monk, please take a look at his appearance and bother to come up with a good name. ”
The idle Zen master did not shirk, opened the corner of the swaddling clothes, and saw that the child's face was like a full moon, his eyes were like stars, his ears were hanging down his shoulders, and he was born with a noble appearance. What's even more peculiar is that this kid actually smiled at Idle, as if he was an old acquaintance with him. The idle Zen master said: "The sages take a vow, beware of the shade; earthly love, and do not covet; Comprehending this nature is really like that. Let's call it "this way".
Zhang Chongtian and the Dou couple had long heard that this high monk was unfathomable, and his name must have been pinned on some mysterious wish. So, although I felt that the name was a bit awkward, I gladly accepted it. Dou once again asked the idle Zen master to let him predict the fate of the child. The idle Zen master casually chanted:
This doll is very human, traveling to the county and light dust.
But a period of old public case, God returned to his original position and the shadow remained.
Xiao Qi is not only rich, but also a lucky star. He was innocent and lively, playful and active, which brought endless joy to Zhang Chongtian and his wife. This kid fished out of the water is no different from the other dolls in the village, climbing trees and walls, going down to the river to play in the water, and being spanked by his father for being too naughty. The only difference is that he has not been touched with meat since he was a child, no matter what fish, shrimp, chickens and ducks, beef, sheep and pork, he vomits in his mouth and refuses to swallow it at all. Despite this, Xiao Qi is fat, strong, and very healthy, so his parents don't take his problem to heart.
What's even more amazing is that since adopting Qi, Dou, who has not been conceived for many years, gave birth to a flower-like daughter in the autumn of the second year, named "Qiuxia". The villagers all say that this is like a new hen must put an egg in the nest before laying eggs, teasing her to lay eggs and lay eggs. Of course, people also say that this is the result of Zhang Chongtian and Dou's method of doing good and accumulating virtue.
In the blink of an eye, two children, a man and a woman, grew up side by side, Qi is seven years old, Qiu Xia is six years old, and they are very loveable. People say that these two children are the golden boys and girls in the heavens and the lower realm. was so envious that everyone also wanted to go to the county river to salvage a baby child.
On this day, Zhang Chongtian's brother-in-law took a hare from the field, and after cooking it, he was reluctant to eat it, so he ran for several miles and sent it to his nephew and niece. On that day, the devil knew where Xiao Qiqi and his friends went crazy and didn't come back near noon. Zhang Chongtian said: "When the children play, they have long forgotten about eating. Besides, he never eats meat, so he doesn't have to wait for him. ”
So, Dou scalded two pots of Shaoxing Huadiao and brought them to the table together with rabbit meat. Zhang Chongtian and his brother-in-law were eating rabbit meat, drinking old wine, guessing the boxing order, and they were very happy. Xiao Qiuxia is a big ghost, and while the adults are not paying attention to drinking, she quietly hides the hind legs of a rabbit - she has never eaten such delicious meat, so she has to leave it for her brother to taste.
