Chapter 600: Approaching the Goal
"Uh......, when you came to my house yesterday, you were wearing a gray gown...... Oh, by the way, maybe I drank alcohol, and it smelled very good. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info", Zheng Jili said after thinking about it carefully, there is only so much he knows.
"......, Amitabha, if there is a smell of alcohol on his body, it will definitely not be a monk from Yunju Temple, the donor should go elsewhere to find it." The older little monk was stunned for a moment and said - the eight precepts of Buddhism: one precept to kill, two precepts to steal, three precepts to adultery, four precepts to lie, five precepts to drink, six precepts to incense, seven precepts to sit and lie on a high bed, eight precepts to eat from time to time, drinking is one of the eight precepts of Buddhism, the monks in the temple will definitely not allow drinking, if they are discovered, they will definitely be punished by the precepts institute, although the Yunju Temple is large, the monks are not small, but life is very closed, if there is a monk drinking, it must be known to everyone, since he has not heard, The chances of that person being here are very slim.
“...... But what he left was to look for it in Yunju Temple. Zheng Jili was also a little vague, maybe that person was not in Yunju Temple, but he came over often, but then again, if this is the case, the chance of encountering it is too small, after all, it is impossible to run to Yunju Temple in three days with his own identity, and that person's situation does not allow him to send someone to find it.
The older monk just shook his head, indicating that he could not help in this matter.
Since the other party didn't know, it was useless to force it, Zheng Jili could only sigh, thank you, and leave, planning to ask someone else again.
"Uh...... Wait a minute. Just as the two of them were about to leave, the other slightly younger monk seemed to remember something and called out to stop them.
Zheng Jili stood up when he heard the sound, turned to look at the young monk, and saw that there was a hesitant look on his face, and he was happy, thinking that the other party remembered something, no matter what he remembered, anyway, it was better for a dead horse to be a live horse doctor, than not knowing anything.
"Donor, if there is a smell of alcohol on my body, I think of someone, but I am not sure that it is not the person the donor is looking for." The younger monk hesitated and said, the so-called monks don't talk about it, since he wants to say it, he will definitely tell the truth, but he is afraid that what he said will mislead the other party, but he will do bad things with good intentions.
"It's okay, little master, if you have something to say, please feel free to say it, even if it's not, I'm very grateful." Zheng Jili hurriedly said.
Since Zheng Jili said that there was no problem, the young monk was relieved, "That's right, two days ago, it was my turn to clean the host's residence, and halfway through the cleaning, the host came back with a guest, I remember that the guest was wearing a gray robe, as for whether there was a scar on his head, because he was wearing a hat, he didn't pay attention." The host didn't seem to know the guest before, but he was very polite to the guest, and when he came in, he told me to serve tea to the guest, and when the tea was served, I smelled a lot of wine on the guest. The young monk preached.
"Really? Probably the person I'm looking for, but I wonder where that guest is now? "The clues can match three things, and the probability of the person you are looking for is at least seventy percent, Zheng Jili was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked.
"Well....., I don't know. I haven't seen it since I met it once that day. The young little monk shook his head, he is not a high-level in Yunju Temple, the guests who preside over the abbot don't need to be introduced, he is just a little monk, there are many things to do every day, it is impossible to wander around the temple all day and night, and no one told him to keep an eye on that person before, where will he know the whereabouts of others.
"......, the eighty percent is still in the temple. I don't know where the abbot of your temple is now, can I ask the little master to take me to meet him? "Since it is not clear that the person will definitely leave, then it is the fastest way to find the host directly, that person is the guest of the host, and the host must know his whereabouts.
"Today is the incense day, there are many pilgrims, and the host is very busy, I'm afraid I don't have time to meet the donor." The older little monk knows more, and it is impossible to let anyone who wants to see the host casually, if he really does that, he will definitely be scolded by the master later.
"That's ......", think about it, Yunju Temple is close to the capital, there are often high-ranking officials and dignitaries come here to make wishes for incense, compared with the status of those people, their own weight is obviously not enough, Master Tzuyun has been a monk since childhood, presided over Yunju Temple for more than 20 years, high morality, and many high-ranking officials in the court, not people who can offend themselves, Zheng Jili plans in his heart, is it not tomorrow or the day after tomorrow when the temple is not so busy to visit, think about a day or two, his friend should not leave.
"......, if the donor is in a hurry, you can go to the west backyard to have a look, which is the temporary residence of Yunju Temple to entertain lay guests, and if the guest does not leave, it may be arranged there." The older little monk is enthusiastic, knowing that the capital is not close to the temple, and it takes at least half a day to go back and forth, if it can be solved today, there is no need to trouble it again tomorrow.
"Okay, thank you for your advice." It's a good thing to have clues to follow, the little monk's words reminded himself that a temple of the size of Yunju Temple must have someone in charge of the stay of foreign guests, presiding over the management of hundreds of monks in a temple, similar to this kind of specific affairs are usually handed over to the people below, otherwise even if the host is a good body, it will be exhausted.
Asked about the way to the west backyard, Zheng Jili's master and servant left the main hall and walked to the back, and the upstream people gradually became scarce along the way, and the two asked while walking, and soon arrived at the place.
This is a building similar to a courtyard house, of course, the scale is much larger than the ordinary courtyard house, five rooms on the front, four rooms on the left and right sides, and there are also four rooms on the side of the door, a total of seventeen rooms, at this time it is close to noon, most of the pilgrims who remain are not in the courtyard, and the doors of the guest rooms are almost closed.
"Is anyone there?" There is no one in the courtyard, Zheng Liji doesn't dare to go in casually, the so-called melon field is not accepted, Li Xia is not tidy, most of the rooms in the temple have no door locks, in case there is something missing, there is no one else present, it is not clear.
Hearing the shout, the door of one of the rooms was opened, and a middle-aged monk walked out of it, and after seeing the two, he hurried all the way to the front of the two, "Amitabha, the two donors are good." ”
"Hello Master." Zheng Jili returned the courtesy.
"I wonder what the two donors have to say?" The middle-aged monk asked.
"Oh, I'm here to find someone." Zheng Jili said.
"Who is the donor looking for?" The middle-aged monk asked.
"A middle-aged man in his thirties, with a scar on his head, often wears a hat." Zheng Jili replied.
