Chapter 474: Having a Relationship with the Buddha

The old monk's aura was too full, and when he looked at it, he felt sweating all over, and at this time, listening to him sit down, Tian Fan and Sun Quan sat down honestly.

Zhi Yu nodded slowly and said, "General Sun, if the poor monk has not guessed wrong, you should be the younger brother of Jiangdong General Sun Bofu!" ”

Sun Quan hurriedly bowed down and replied: "Master Mingjian, Sun is the brother of his elder brother!" ”

Zhi Lou Jia bowed his head slightly and said, "Well, it's good! The poor monk once had a relationship with your father, and your grandson's family is really extraordinary! ”

Sun Quan didn't even dare to say it.

Zhi Lou Jiayu nodded slightly, and looked at Tian Fan with a smile, Tian Fan was busy dodging his gaze.

The old monk couldn't help but smile when he saw Tian Fan's eyes dodging, and he said: "General Tian, you have a relationship with the Buddha, why don't you practice Buddhism with the poor monks and become a generation of monks, how about it?" ”

Tian Fan was dumbfounded when he heard this, what does the old monk mean? In the fourth sentence of the meeting, persuade people to become monks?

Tian Fan hurriedly clasped his hands together and said, "Master, Tian has a happy life and a happy family, and he doesn't want to become a monk!" After a slight pause, he stood up and said, "Master, Tian is not feeling well, so what, I'll go first!" ”

As he spoke, he didn't dare to look at Zhi Lou Jia's gaze, and ran out of the meditation room as if he had fled.

Tian Fan is really afraid of this old monk, I damn it, Lao Tzu is estimated to be so embarrassed in the million-dollar army! This old monk is terrible!

Coming to the door, Tian Fan gasped a few breaths, his heart was like a drum, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. He couldn't help but be very strange, he saw Yu Ji, Huichang and other masters, and it was not like this, why couldn't he see Zhi Lou Jiayu? Think about it, is it because of the vicissitudes of his face, or is it because of his perceptive eyes?

After a while, Tian Fan heard Sun Quan's voice, and listened carefully, it turned out that Sun Quan asked Zhilou Jia to teach some of the contents of the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures and the doctrine of Prajna.

Listen to the difference, really listen to him I don't understand!

So, Tian Fan circled around in the courtyard at the door, waiting for Sun Quan to come out. This place is behind Yangshan, not too far from the front of the Nine Mirrors Pagoda, where the Sanskrit sound of the monks' chanting can be transmitted. Listening to these incomprehensible but calming Sanskrit sounds, slowly, his state of mind returned to calm. In other words, if you are a monk and do not leave home, it doesn't matter if you say it, but if you say it, it will be counted!

Listening to Sun Quan and Zhi Lou Jiayu talking happily, laughter came out from time to time, and it was estimated that he would not be able to come out for a while, Tian Fan couldn't help but be a little bored.

Looking at the surrounding scenery, he took Tang Xian, left Tang Feng to wait for Sun Quan, and went to the temple in front to see the scenery.

Turning out of the secluded place, I entered the place where the monks lived a little further forward, and I saw many plainly dressed monks busy chopping wood and cooking. It's already afternoon, and it's time to eat.

When the monks saw Tian Fan and the others, they didn't ask much, but just put their hands together for eleven bows, and then each did their own thing. When Tian Fan was bored, it happened that a monk wearing a crimson monk's robe walked to the front of the temple with several men and women.

Tian Fan was stunned, isn't it, women are still allowed to come in?

Seeing the monk talking happily with those men and women, Tian Fan was even more dumbfounded.

When the monk saw Tian Fan, his expression was blank, and he hurriedly greeted him. He folded his hands, saluted first, and said, "Poor monk Daohong, I've seen General Tian!" ”

Several men and women around him also saluted and said, "I've seen General Tian!" ”

Tian Fan was stunned, uh...... Do we know each other?

Monk Daohong saw Tian Fan stunned, and said with a smile: "General Tian, before the poor monk became a monk, he was the minister of Langya!" Hehe, the poor monk has had the honor to attend several gatherings presided over by the general, and he has met the general a few times! ”

Tian Fan let out an "oh", hurriedly clasped his hands in salute, and said, "Tian has seen the master!" ”

Master Daohong smiled and said, "The general doesn't have to be polite!" Well, I don't know what the general came to Futu Temple for today? ”

Tian Fan said: "It's nothing, just come and shop!" ”

Daohong smiled and said, "I see! If the general doesn't dislike it, how about the poor monk take the general for a walk? ”

Tian Fan hurriedly said: "Don't dare to have Master Lao!" ”

Seeing Tian Fan looking at several men and women beside him, Daohong smiled calmly and said, "General, these are the children of poor monks before they became monks. Today, they came together to visit the poor monks. ”

Tian Fan was dumbfounded, didn't he want six pure roots when he left home?

Daohong obviously saw his doubts, and said with a smile: "The general may have misunderstood my Buddhism, my Buddhism focuses on the cultivation of the soul, not the situation. Hehe, family and friends, do not refuse to come and go. ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "Well, some monks are indeed purer and do not associate with family and friends, but poor monks obviously do not belong to that kind!" ”

When Tian Fan heard this, he was immediately relieved. He folded his hands and said, "Since this is the case, then there is Master Lao!" ”

Daohong smiled and said, "So, general, please!" ”

As he spoke, he led Tian Fan to visit the monks' living quarters first.

Pointing to the monks who were busy cooking, he said, "General Tian, there are 532 monks in my Futu Temple, including 110 of these miscellaneous monks, who are responsible for taking care of the diet and daily life of the monks in the temple in addition to studying scriptures and Buddhism. Except for them, the rest of the monks are full-time monks, except for participating in the maintenance of the temple property...... Oh, that is, in addition to being in charge of farming, the main thing is to study the scriptures and Dharma every day. ……”

Tian Fan is a general, and he can basically judge at a glance how big a bunch of pots and pans are and how many people can be supplied to eat and drink. Therefore, as soon as he looked at the big cauldron and the whole chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, he immediately concluded that this place could make food for a thousand people at a time.

He couldn't help but ask this doubt, Dao Hong smiled, and said, "General, my Futu Temple pays attention to one meal a day, so the monks eat a lot. ”

Tian Fanqi said: "Master Daohong, there are still such regulations in the temple? Belch...... How do the monks in the temple work and rest every day, and can you explain one or two things to you? ”

Daohong said: "Why not? Hehe, General, the monks in my Futu Monastery get up at the end of every day and do morning classes after that. When the time comes, I start to participate in the work of the temple...... Well, mainly in the spring, summer and autumn, because at that time, crops are planted in the fields of the temple. After that, at noon, I studied the scriptures and Dharma again and did a lunch class. After that, listen to the lectures of the great monks. After that, at the end of the afternoon, we have a meal. After that, do evening classes. Finally, at the end of the unitary hour, rest! ”

Tian Fan nodded slightly and asked, "So, what about the great monks in the temple?" Do they need to be involved in the work of the temple? ”

Daohong glanced at Tian Fan and said with a smile: "A few people like Senior Brother Huichang don't need to participate in labor, because they have to receive visiting guests every day, and they also have to explain the scriptures to the believers and promote our Buddha." ”

After a slight pause, he said: "The monks in the temple should organize excursions in winter or early spring when the farmers are slack. Half of the monks were left to guard the monastery and receive devotees who came to offer incense and learn the Dharma, while the rest were led by several masters on a long hike. The purpose of the hike is to temper the minds of the monks, after all, the Dharma is extensive, and on the way to Buddhahood, it is easy to encounter many demons, and it cannot be achieved without a strong enough faith. Also, during the hike, we slept in the open air, ran around during the day, and lived in the wilderness at night, one meal a day, begging for food, begging for food, begging for food, and starving for a day if we didn't......"

Tian Fan nodded, very emotional in his heart. Thinking about the monks of later generations, they did not need to work on their own at all, and just defrauding those tourists who made incense every year was enough for them to live a very luxurious life. And some so-called high monks, preaching the scriptures? Jokes, can they read the scriptures? It's okay to watch the World Cup and Super Cup!

After that, Daohong took Tian Fan to the front, which is the main building of Futu Temple. In addition to the Nine Mirrors Pagoda, there are buildings such as the Heavenly King Palace, the Receiving Hall, and the Big Buddha Hall, which can be described as magnificent.

Tian Fan sighed while watching, no wonder the incense of Futu Temple is flourishing, just this huge building complex, this can make people have a kind of mind that does not dare to be humiliated. When you enter such a place, you can't help but be cautious. It is no wonder that the royal family, the yamen, and various religions always cover the sky and the sun when building palaces, official palaces, and temples.

After a while, everyone walked to the square in front of the Nine Mirrors Tower. At this time, Master Huichang's lecture ended, and the believers were leaving one after another.

Tian Fan looked at it and saw that near the lotus platform on the square, a monk was surrounded by several people, talking something.

Dao Hong saw it and said with a smile: "General, how about going to meet Senior Brother Huichang?" ”

Tian Fan nodded and said, "Okay!" ”

A few people walked towards Master Huichang.

Coincidentally, among the several people who surrounded Master Huichang to teach Buddhism, one of them turned his head to look and found Tian Fan, who hurriedly said a few words to Master Huichang, and then greeted him excitedly.

Tian Fan looked at it, and saw that the person who came had a round face, and his belly trembled when he walked, it was Tao Ying, who was fat and unshaped! Tao Ying is living comfortably now, Meiyuan's business is getting better and better, his Tao family is making money every day, and it's strange if he is not fat!

When Tian Fan saw it, he hurriedly greeted him, and the two brothers greeted each other with a smile. Tian Fan punched Tao Ying on the shoulder socket and said, "You pimped guy, you persecute those good women all day long, what kind of Buddhism do you learn?" Atonement and repentance? ”

Tao Ying smiled and said, "What do you mean by pimping?" When Madame Bai was in the Plum Garden, you said, I am art, elegant art, and most people don't understand it! How? As soon as Madame White leaves, I will become a pimp? Hey, Boguang, why do you have time to come to Futu Temple today? Isn't it that your kid has a conflict with a few ladies and wants to become a monk? ”

Tian Fan scolded with a smile: "You are just a monk!" I have a lot of beautiful wives and concubines, and I live a happy and comfortable life, why do I want to become a monk? Hey, seriously, you're not really here to study the Dharma scriptures, are you? ”

Tao Ying nodded and said with a smile: "Then there is still a fake?" My brother and I both believe in Buddhism, and you don't know it! As he spoke, he shook his head slowly and said with emotion: "Boguang, you don't believe in Buddhism, so you don't know, there are too many troubles in the world, whenever life is not going well, I like to come and listen to a few masters give lectures, so that I can see everything!" ”

Tian Fan didn't look like he was joking, and he didn't say anything after smiling.

The two of them said a few more words, and after Daohong and the others caught up, they walked to Huichang together.

When the two people saluted, Huichang folded his hands and said to Tian Fan: "General Tian, why do you have time to come to the temple today?" ”

Huichang is seven feet eight inches tall and wears a crimson monk's robe, which is not gorgeous at all. It is said that the clothes worn by the monks of this era were actually very simple, all of them were linen, and the color was also very dull. Ordinary monks wear cyan or gray robes, and those with a certain level or position wear crimson robes.

Huichang used to be the minister of Pengcheng, and he had two brushes when he treated people and things. After all, the temple is also down-to-earth, and if an abbot is not sophisticated, it is impossible to run the temple well.

Tian Fan and Huichang have also met a few times, Huichang has invited Tian Fan to listen to the Dharma several times, but Tian Fan refused, at this time listening to Huichang's old words, Tian Fan said: "Hehe, master, you don't know how busy I am!" I'm still here with someone else today! ”

After a slight pause, he said, "Master, how long has Master Zhilou Jiayu been here?" Why haven't I heard of it before? ”

Hui Chang smiled and said: "The great monk has a low-key personality and doesn't like to be disturbed by others, if it weren't for the special identity of you and Sun Zhongmou, I wouldn't have met you!" ”

At this moment, Zhi Liang, Sun Quan, and Tang Feng came.

Tian Fan saw Sun Quan walking all the way, his face seemed to be enlightened, but he seemed to be even more confused, and he couldn't help but be curious about what Zhi Lou Jiayu said to him.

After everyone saluted, Zhi Liang saluted Tian Fan and said: "General Tian, the family teacher never speaks, he said that you have a relationship with the Buddha, so you are naturally related to the Buddha." However, you are nostalgic for the mortal world and do not know how to cherish it. Oh, alas! ”

Tian Fan smiled slightly, calmly returned the salute, and said: "Master, Buddhism pays attention to karma, and if karma is not reached, everything is vain. Tian is now a happy family, a loving husband and wife, and soon, a child will be born. Hehe, although the Buddha is good, but, in Tian's opinion, his wife and children are more amiable! Master, Zi Fei Fish, the joy of Anzhi fish? In your opinion, it is a flood beast, but in my opinion, it is cute and amiable, and the perspective is different! ”

Zhi Liang looked at Tian Fan in surprise and said, "The family teacher said that the general has a relationship with the Buddha, but it is true!" With a smile, he took out an object from his pocket, handed it to Tian Fan, and said, "General Tian, this thing is a gift from the family teacher, I think it should be of some use to the general." Hehe, the family teacher often says that only by forming a good relationship can there be good results, since General Tian has a relationship with the Buddha, it is natural to receive this thing! ”

Tian Fan took it, opened it and took a look, only to see that this thing was an antique parchment scroll, on which were painted many figures with various movements.

After looking at it for a while, I didn't understand it, and I couldn't help but look at Zhi Liang.

Zhi Liang smiled and said: "General Tian, this thing is an ancient method of strengthening the body from Tianzhu, with more practice, you can prolong your life and enhance your physique!" ”

Hearing him say this, Tian Fan looked at the pictures on the parchment scroll again, and he knew that this was a scroll of yoga!

Yoga, hehe, both men and women can practice, especially suitable for women to practice, it can shape the body, maintain the figure, increase the flexibility of the body, enhance the boudoir taste, hey, hey, good thing!

Thinking of the bewitching appearance of Cai Yan, Mi Zhen and other women stretching their bodies when they practiced, Tian Fanha's son was about to flow out!

When Zhi Liang saw that he looked like a pig brother, he suddenly felt a cold sweat come out, and he coughed and said, "General Tian, please take it away, the little monk has left!" After a slight pause, he said: "General Tian, the family teacher said that you had better practice more of this volume of secret techniques, it will be very good for your body!" ”

With that, he bowed and drifted away.

Huichang, Daohong, Sun Quan, Tao Ying and others were very envious of the atlas that Tian Fan had received, Huichang folded his hands together, and said: "General Tian, Master Zhilou Jiayu has lived here for more than three months, and he has never given anything to others, but he doesn't want to give you such a treasure. It seems that the master said that you have a relationship with the Buddha, and it is indeed true! ”

Daohong nodded again and again and said, "Not bad!" The general has such a coincidence, I don't know how many others to envy! ”

Tian Fan smiled and said, "Uh...... Oh, there is fate, there is fate......"

After a while, Tian Fan and others said goodbye.

Out of the Futu Temple, Tian Fan asked, "Zhongmou, what did the great monk of Zhilou Jiayu tell you?" Why are you acting like you're stupid? ”

Sun Quan came back to his senses and said with a solemn face: "Starting with the silent bodhicitta and enlightening the mind as the starting point, I have been born countless times in the world to practice the bodhisattva path, cut off all afflictions, cultivate all pollution, complete all methods, and become a Buddha ......."

Tian Fan was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, this guy won't want to become a monk, right?
