Chapter 17 Night Inspection
"Yao, Yaozu! You, why are you back, back so early?! It's not all dark yet! You, you're done, you're done, I'm going to hand over the things that wipe the everlasting lights in the forest?! As I said beforehand, if you can't wipe it clean, even if it's just a lamp, you won't want to eat tonight's fast! ”
A young monk eating a meal in his house. Seeing Yaozu who appeared at the door, he was a little surprised. As he spoke, he put it down, and walked towards Yaozu who was standing at the door. There was still a hint of annoyance between his words, but he thought that this new junior brother must not have listened to him and did not wipe the ever-bright lamp in the stele forest.
Senior Brother Yaozu walked towards Yaozu, but he couldn't help but secretly in his heart, why did this kid come back so early?! There are dozens of ever-bright lights in the forest! Even if you can wipe it all, you can't wipe it so fast! Well! This kid must be hungry and ran back by himself! Hum! How dare you disobey me! It's nice to have you kid!
"Teacher, senior brother! I, I've done, I've wiped all that, all the lights! ”
Yao saw the senior brother who walked to his side, and said to him with an unkind face.
Senior Brother Yaozu obviously didn't expect Yaozu to say such a thing. The reprimands that had just come to his lips and had not yet been uttered, but he couldn't help but be speechless. But then his face sank again, and he said to Yaozu: "Yaozu! Monks don't speak! Are you really done with everything I gave you?! Hum! I'm going to say that if even one of the everlasting lights in the forest hadn't been wiped clean, you wouldn't want to eat tonight's fast! No! It's not just tonight, I can't eat tomorrow morning's fast! Do you hear that?! I'll ask you one last time, did you really wipe all the lanterns in the forest that you asked you to wipe?! ”
Senior brother's questioning and threats were obviously nothing to Yaozu. After listening to what his senior brother said, Yaozu nodded his little head and said, "Yes, yes!" I, I'm really, really, all wiped it out. Teacher, if you don't believe it, if you don't believe it, you can go by yourself, go to the forest to see! See! ”
"Humph! I don't need you to say it, I'll go see it too! I'd like to see how you wipe the lamps in the woods! If you still prevaricate like rubbing the Buddha statue in the daytime, you will definitely have a precept ruler! ”
Senior Brother Yaozu said viciously, and then strode out of the house. A few steps away from the house, he turned back to Yaozu and beckoned, "Why don't you come here soon?!" Let's go?! ”
"Oh!"
After Yaozu agreed to the senior brother, the hind feet followed behind the senior brother, and then went to the stele forest in the mountain behind him again. On the way to the stele forest, Yaozu recalled the woman he met in the stele forest today, giving him snacks to eat.
If he was the only one, of course, he wouldn't be able to wipe off the ever-bright lights in the stele forest now. But after eating the snack, with the help of the woman, it was very fast. In fact, when it was getting dark and just after night, he had already wiped all the ever-bright lights in the forest. And it's all clean.
After wiping the lantern, the woman who gave him snacks to eat also left the stele forest. With her departure, although he was a little reluctant in his heart. But he didn't know what to say, but he could only look at her silently... After smiling at himself, he left the stele forest silently without saying anything.
Later, he also returned to the house where he lived with his brother. Now I don't believe that he has wiped the lights in the forest clean. But he took him again, and rushed back to the stele forest again in the dark night.
"Huh?! This, this..."
Senior Brother Yaozu, who was walking in the stele forest, was a little incredible, walking back and forth in the stele forest. From time to time, I touched this and that, and looked at the ones I had touched, and whether there were any gray marks left on those ever-bright lantern pavilions and lampposts. But he walked past several stone tablets one after another, and after touching more than a dozen ever-bright lights, he still didn't see a single one that was not clean. Thus he couldn't help muttering to himself in confusion.
"Yao, Yaozu! This, these lights, lights! Both, it's all you, wipe it?! ”
When Senior Brother Yaozu stopped beside an ever-bright lamp, he looked at it with some surprise, and asked Senior Brother Yaozu, who was following him. But he didn't believe it, so he could wipe all the everlasting lamps in the forest one by one.
Yaozu who immediately nodded his head, and said without the slightest hesitation: "Yes, it's me, I wiped it myself.. I, I, no, don't know how, what's going on. Just, just wipe it, wipe it, wipe it all over. No, but it's a little strange, it's strange..."
"What's weird?"
Senior Brother Yaozu heard that Yaozu said something strange, but he hurriedly asked him.
Yaozu pretended to ponder for a while, and his face showed a little puzzled, and he replied to his senior brother: "I, I'm here, wiping, wiping this, these ever-bright lights, time." See, see one, an old, an old man. He, he, sit, sit, sit, that, that, sit, sit. One, at first, I, I didn't pay much attention to it. But, in a blink of an eye. Again, look again, when you look at the man. Then, the man disappeared and disappeared. ”
Yao Zu said matter-of-factly, and stretched out his hand to point to a stone tablet not far away.
"Shhh
Senior Brother Yaozu couldn't help but gasp. But he was a little frightened, and followed the direction of Yaozu's finger and looked at the stone tablet that Yaozu was pointing to. But it is the middle of this Jinlin Hongti Temple in the past dynasties, the most famous for the debate of good and evil, the ancestor of the temple is Feng Wat, in the year of succession as the Jinlin Hongti Temple Temple, the stone tablet!
I think that this ancestor of the temple is the master of Feng Wat, that is also a famous generation of monks in the sect. His reputation among the sects at that time was no less than that of today's Master Puyun, who is known as "Yuan Ji Lin"!
It was after Master Feng Wat took over the Jinlin Hongti Temple, which was declining day by day, that the decline of several generations of temples was swept away. And gradually in the twelve temples, the Jinlin Hongti Temple, which lost its rightful position, once again regained the power it should have in the twelve temples!
At the same time that the Jinlin Hongti Temple was regained and the power of the twelve temples of the original family should have been restored, Master Feng Wat also obtained the weight of the former national teacher Xuandu Dezhu, who rectified the sect at that time. As a result, he was appointed as the "precepts" to sit and assist the ancestor of the national teacher to declare the capital and punish the lawlessness in the sect.
However, because of this, the relationship between the two generations of temples that inherited the "precepts and sitting" and was one of the twelve temples of Jinding Hongxin Temple was tense and Fengyuan, which directly led to the discord between the two temples for more than 100 years.
However, Master Feng Wat was also called the ancestor of Zhongxing Temple of Jinlin Hongti Temple by the monks in the temple because of the revitalization of the temple gate and the importance of the first national teacher Xuandu De. Moreover, because he did not care about family affection, clan affection, and teacher affection, he degraded and killed the monks in the temple, so that the temple prospered again. Because the three absolute feelings are too righteous, Master Feng Wat has the name of "Three Absolute Wats".
Especially when he was only because of his son, he was found in the temple as the son of the temple and bullied the juniors of the temple. was demoted from the temple by him, and he was removed as a descendant of the master of Yuanji, so that no one in the temple dared to suppress the senior body.
There is also a judgment only for a Zhuang household, so he ordered the monks in the temple to kill the disciples who sat down in public. His jealous and hateful temperament was the most influential figure in the door at that time...
A drop of cold sweat couldn't help but slowly slide down Senior Brother Yaozu's cheeks. Who doesn't know that Master Feng Wat lived for about sixty years and passed away... I heard that there have been things in the temple before, and Master Feng Wat has appeared! However, they are all spirits who have been shown by evil things in the temple!
Self, I don't, I don't want to, because it's just, it's just, just... Just let this new junior brother in the temple do more, more for himself, clean up by himself... Just, just provoke, provoke Master Feng Wat, right?! But, but that, that stone tablet was indeed erected by Master Feng Wat in the succession of Jinlin Hongti Temple back then!
Yaozu asked him to come to this stele forest during the day and wipe the ever-bright lights in the forest. Generally nothing... Who, who will come to hang out in the stele forest in this back mountain?! Just, even if someone happens to be seen by Yaozu. That, that can't, it's a big living person in front of you. Say, say no, it's gone?! What's more, what's more, what's strange is that Yaozu himself, all, don't know, how, how to wipe this everlasting lamp that is impossible for one person to wipe so quickly, all of them!
"Ah... Ah, Amitabha! Amitabha! Amitabha! Buddha, Buddha bless! Bless! Amitabha! Amitabha! ”
Senior Brother Yaozu, who is chattering with gods, is really a little scared. I couldn't help but put my hands together, and I bowed to the stone monument erected by Master Zhengfeng Wat of Yaozu who pointed to Yaozu just now, and bowed while chanting the Buddha's name.
However, Yaozu, who was standing aside, asked the senior brother with some confusion: "Teacher, senior brother?" You, what are you doing, doing? ”
"Ami... uh..."
After Yaozu who was standing beside him asked, Senior Brother Yaozu, who was both flustered and scared in his heart, couldn't help but be stunned. So I couldn't help but secretly feel in my heart, also, it's okay! OK! It's not too late! It's not too late! Amitabha! Amitabha!
"Yao, Yaozu! Walk! Walk! Let's go back to dinner! You, you must be hungry too, right? Today, tonight, Senior Brother, Senior Brother will personally cook you a delicious meal! We're not going to eat that tonight, the dry cakes and the dried vegetables! Teacher, my brother still has some delicious food, no, I don't want to eat it! Walk! Walk! Let's go back! Let's go back! ”
Senior Brother Yaozu said to Yaozu, and walked quickly towards the outside of the stele forest. Because it was late, and there were many uncles in the stele forest. But it couldn't help but make Senior Brother Yaozu even more frightened of the dark shadows of the surrounding trees. It was as if there was a man standing there looking at him in the shadows of the trees that he couldn't see!
"Teacher, senior brother! Wait, wait for me! ”
Yao saw that the senior brother was walking fast, but he couldn't help but follow behind the senior brother, trotting after the senior brother, and said to the senior brother who was walking fast. But I can't help but secretly in my heart... These are the words that the man taught himself... It really works. Senior brother really didn't have to be difficult for himself anymore.
