Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Heavy Snow of That Year
Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi followed the little monk of Jishi out of the main hall and walked in the direction of the hall.
Jishi also returned the gift with a smile, and was able to call out the Dharma name of every monk he encountered, without any mistakes.
When there was no one around, Xu Mingyuan took two quick steps forward and asked with a smile: "The name taken by Master Jishi is the meaning of the people of the world?" ”
"The Dharma name was given by the Master, and he should mean it." Ji Shi clasped his hands together and looked at Xu Mingyuan and said slowly.
Xu Mingyuan felt that this little monk was quite interesting, so he continued to ask: "Master Xuanjue means this, so what do you mean?" ”
"Master's will is my will." Ji Shi thought about it seriously and nodded in reply.
"How can it help the world?" Xu Mingyuan smiled and continued to ask, this time he didn't mean to laugh, he wanted to hear what this little monk who could be accepted as a disciple by the master of the Xuanzi generation at a young age would say.
Ji Shi said without thinking: "Master said that the six degrees can reach the other side, and the Bodhisattva can take all severities. ”
What are the six degrees? Buddhism talks about giving to the other side; Take the vows to the other side; endure humiliation to the other side; Strive to the other side; Meditation to the other side; Wisdom to the other side, these six degrees are the law of self-control.
The Four Principles of Enlightenment are the methods that the Bodhisattva says in Buddhism to take care of the lives of others in the world, that is, generosity, love, benefit, and colleagues, all of which are the methods for benefiting sentient beings.
Although Xu Mingyuan had never studied Buddhism deeply, he still had some understanding of these things, and after thinking about Ji Shi's words, he looked at him again and asked, "Then what do you think?" ”
Ji Shi also thought about it seriously, nodded and said, "Master's intention is my intention." ”
"The two masters are really wonderful people." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile. It is really rare to find a person with such a pure mind as Ji Shi, if he devotes himself to one thing, he will definitely be able to do it to the extreme, no wonder he will be accepted as a disciple by Master Xuanjue.
"The donor is overcredited." Jishi folded his hands, and there was a rare shyness on his face.
Zeng Qingyi, who was on the side, listened to the conversation between the two, and at first felt that Xu Mingyuan was laughing at Jishi, and when he heard it, he also admired Jishi a little more.
The hall was in the back, not too far, and after the little monk Jishi brought Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi with him, he said goodbye with a smile, saying that he was going to his master to ask a few words.
Xu Mingyuan asked him with a smile why he didn't ask before, and Ji Shi also smiled and said that the master asked him to bring the two of them to the dining hall first, so he brought them here first, and it was the same to ask earlier and later.
Looking at Ji Shi, who was wearing a light red robe and smiling all the way to greet pilgrims and monks, Xu Mingyuan smiled and shook his head, he was really an interesting little monk. Even if such a person doesn't know martial arts, he may not be able to become an admired person in a few years.
The temple is quite large, and there are thousands of monks who practice in the temple. The upper and lower temples are divided again, the upper temple is slightly smaller, and it is the place where the monks in the temple are cultivated, so it is not open to visitors. The lower temple can be used for pilgrims to pray for blessings, and there is also a special hall for pilgrims to go up the mountain to eat.
The dining hall is a rather large bungalow, neatly arranged with more than 20 square tables, today is not a special day, and the scenery on the mountain is not the most beautiful, so there are not many people eating in the dining hall.
Xu Mingyuan asked for two bowls of somen noodles, put a few Tongbao in the merit box on the side, and sat down opposite Zeng Qingyi, who was sitting at the table by the window, with two bowls of light noodle soup, a few slices of tender green vegetables, and a few green onions.
But before Xu Mingyuan could speak, Zeng Qingyi had already stretched out his hand and pointed to the other side facing the window, his mouth was furrowed, and he motioned for Xu Mingyuan to look over.
If it was a little surprising for Xu Mingyuan to meet Xuanjue and Jishi masters and apprentices in this Changle Temple, then meeting Qi Haobo again here was completely beyond his expectations.
On Mingshun Avenue that day, Qi Haobo was besieged by the six monsters in southern Sichuan, and finally threw a snow lotus pearl for Xu Mingyuan to escape, which naturally impressed Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi.
However, speaking of that, Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi didn't have much ill feelings towards Qi Haobo, although he had the intention of causing trouble to the east, but if Xu Mingyuan was not greedy and directly handed over the Snow Lotus Bead, I think that the six monsters in southern Sichuan would not do anything out of order to the two of them in front of everyone.
And that day, with Zeng Qingyi's sharp sword, the snow lotus bead worth a thousand taels of silver finally fell into their hands, and it can be said that the snow lotus bead was given by Qi Haobo.
Qi Haobo was still wearing a moon-white robe, and when he saw Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi looking at him, he also smiled and nodded at the two.
Next to Qi Haobo sat a woman in a blue gauze skirt, seventeen or eighteen years old, with a goose egg face, slender eyebrows, a small cherry mouth, raw and gentle and lovely, and was eating noodles with her head down.
"Would you like to say hello?" Zeng Qingyi asked softly.
"The beauty is on the side, he doesn't want us to disturb him." Xu Mingyuan shook his head with a smile, took two pairs of chopsticks from the chopsticks, lightly pestled them on the table, handed the two of the same length to Zeng Qingyi, put the short one back, and took another one.
Most of the women beside Qi Haobo are the daughters of the head of the Qingcheng Sword Sect, and most of them look like they have already hugged the beauty with that snow lotus bead. Since Qi Haobo didn't say hello when he and Zeng Qingyi entered the door, he obviously didn't want to have an intersection with the two here.
"Is he unwilling, or are you unwilling?" Zeng Qingyi rolled a few noodles with chopsticks, circled a few times, looked at Xu Mingyuan with a smile and said.
Xu Mingyuan, who had just taken a big mouthful of noodles, almost squirted out, and after chewing a few times and swallowing the noodles, he glanced at Zeng Qingyi and teased: "Do you think you are a beauty?" ”
"I wasn't praised in front of me, but I could tell it from their eyes." Zeng Qingyi put the noodles rolled on the chopsticks in her mouth and nodded.
"Actually, I found that your skin is not thinner than mine." Xu Mingyuan said with emotion.
Zeng Qingyi shook her head solemnly and said: "It's still a lot worse than you, but if I go out with you a lot, my skin will naturally thicken." ”
Qi Haobo and the woman finished eating noodles and left the hall, and the woman also looked at Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi a few more times before going out, after all, a beautiful woman like Zeng Qingyi is eye-catching everywhere, and although Xu Mingyuan looks quite handsome, he still loses a lot of points in half-used clothes.
Qi Haobo's origin is a little unknown, since he intends to avoid it, Xu Mingyuan naturally will not stick to it. Moreover, during this time, the news of the birth of Yunji Ling was very loud, and the Qingcheng Sword Sect seemed to have become the center of the storm, and it was even more impossible to avoid the daughter of the head of the Qingcheng Sword Sect.
Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi ate noodles, walked around the temple again, went out of the lower temple, bypassed the upper temple, and climbed to the top of the mountain.
Changle Temple is really a lot of people who are happy, the monks who see all the way are people who can bow with a smile, the ancient temple is backed by a thousand Buddha tops, the front is facing the Muyu Peak, the side is accompanied by the incense burner peak, the Thousand Buddha protects the temple, the sound of the wooden fish, the cigarette smoke curls, it makes people feel peaceful.
Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi stood on the top of the mountain for a while, blowing a cool breeze, which was really comfortable. Looking around, the peaks and peaks are stacked, although there is no sense of seeing the small mountains, but I also feel a lot more open-minded.
Climbing to the top of the mountain, the Buddha also worshipped, the lottery was drawn, and the somen noodles were eaten, and the two also decided to go down the mountain.
When going up the mountain, they took the avenue, and when they went down, they took the trail behind the mountain. The trail behind the mountain is much smaller than the previous avenue, only two feet wide, and it is only pressed into the mud steps with some slightly flat stones, which is steep and difficult to walk, and few pilgrims usually go up and down the mountain from this side.
The mountain road is difficult to walk, but for Xu Mingyuan and Zeng Qingyi, it is naturally not a problem, even if there is no road, with the light skills of the two of them, they can go down the mountain directly by stepping on the branches, but this is a lot less fun.
The two walked unhurriedly towards the bottom of the mountain, talking a few words from time to time, talking about a few childhood troubles, but they were not bored, but full of memories. Speaking of which, the two of them have stayed together for the longest time when they are young, and it will take a lot of time to finish the things that the two have done together.
Halfway through, Zeng Qingyi, who was walking behind, said with a smile: "Stupid Mingyuan, do you remember the first time we came here, it snowed a lot, and the mountains were all over the white expanse, but it looked good." ”
"How can you not remember, when you had to go back to the mountain, and then twisted your foot, I carried you from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, but I didn't tire me to death." Xu Mingyuan rolled his eyes and said, now that he thinks about it, when he was ten years old, he carried Zeng Qingyi, who twisted his foot, down the mountain, and the two fell together several times along the way, but fortunately, the snow was thick on the ground and he was not injured.
"What, think I'm heavy?" Zeng Qingyi's voice raised a few points, and he didn't know when he had already lifted a dead branch in his hand.
Xu Mingyuan glanced at the withered branch slightly, and immediately changed his smile and said, "How could it be, you were light back then, and it's not heavy now." ”
"Really?" Zeng Qingyi asked again.
"If it's fake, if you don't believe it, I can carry you down the mountain now." Xu Mingyuan nodded again and again. He didn't believe that Zeng Qingyi would let him carry her now.
"Then I'm coming up, I'm just a little tired." What Xu Mingyuan didn't expect was that Zeng Qingyi, who was originally following Xu Mingyuan, pulled the scripture in his hand, jumped directly on his back, put one hand around his neck, and held the dead branch in the other.
Xu Mingyuan only felt a sinking on his body, but fortunately, after practicing martial arts over the years, his feet were solid, if ordinary people had to roll down the mountain.
Xu Mingyuan tilted his head slightly, and said helplessly: "You really came up." ”
"Didn't you say it yourself? I didn't believe it, so I had to come up and give it a try. Zeng Qingyi said with an innocent face, the dead branch held in her right hand swayed up and down, and she was quite interested.
Xu Mingyuan smiled helplessly, reached out to help Zeng Qingyi's leg, and walked down the mountain.
If you want to say that when she went out to play before, Zeng Qingyi didn't rely on him as long as she could be lazy, which is why Xu Mingyuan called him a lazy girl. But now the two are no longer teenagers and girls, but fortunately, there are no idlers on this trail, and it is harmless.
It snowed heavily that year, and the boy carried the girl down the mountain, and he still laughed all the way down.
Ten years of time is like a dream, and the heavy snow of that year is today's people.
