Chapter 235: Under the River God
The monk said that he wanted to go to the river to have a look, probably to see what was going on in the river.
But now it's night, there were no street lights in those days, and it was very dark outside at night, especially in the Tianshui River area, which was even darker and terrible.
If it had been before, there might have been a bold original intention to take the monk to Tianshui River to have a look, but now everyone knows that Tianshui River is a demon, and it is still an unusual demon.
The hideous and fierce words of the evil ghost's possessed village chief's daughter just now were still in her ears, and the surrounding villagers did not dare to risk their lives.
Seeing that no one was willing to stand up and lead the way, the senior monk couldn't help but sigh, but at this time, someone raised his hand and shouted, "I, master, I will take you to Tianshui River." ”
The person who came forward was none other than my great-grandfather.
My great-grandfather had always been a warm-hearted man, as evidenced by his desperate efforts to rescue my great-grandmother from the river, and he was a man of integrity and chivalry.
When I heard my grandmother talk about the masked man in the river, my grandfather felt that it must be evil, but because he couldn't deal with it, he asked my grandmother not to spread it.
Although the demons in the river had nothing to do with his grandfather, he blamed himself a little, thinking that if he had told the villagers what his grandmother had said at the beginning, he might have been able to prevent the village girls from going to the river.
Therefore, at this time, the guilty grandfather stood up directly and said that he would take the monk to Tianshui River.
When the great-grandmother saw that the great-grandfather was going to Tianshui River, she immediately pulled down his sleeve and wanted to stop him, but she didn't say anything to stop him.
Grandfather touched your hand and motioned for her not to worry.
In the village, the great-grandfather's popularity has always been very good, so when the great-grandfather said that he would take the high-ranking monks to the Tianshui River, several men in the village also volunteered to follow.
For a monk, it is enough for only one person to lead the way, but he doesn't mind many people going with him.
When the great grandfather and a few villagers came to the Tianshui River with the monk and the little novice, the monk told everyone to stop and walked forward.
He walked to the river of Tianshui River, because tonight was a full moon, and the moonlight was shining, sprinkled on the Tianshui River, sparkling.
The moon in the sky and the river on the earth make a particularly beautiful picture, and it is difficult to imagine that there is a demon in the river when the water is calm.
The monk stood on the bank of the river for a while, and after about an hour, a few villagers who came with him were a little stunned, so they asked the little novice beside him, "Little master, what is the monk doing?" ”
Xiao Shami glanced at the villagers who were asking, and then said with some disdain, "My master is watching the falling, don't make a sound, in case you disturb my master, I can make you look good at that time." ”
After saying that, the little novice snorted.
Although the grandfather and a few villagers didn't know what Guan Luoyin was, they didn't dare to continue to ask, because the little novice looked impatient, as if any of them dared to ask one more word, the little novice would be about to hit someone with his fist.
Strange to say, although this high monk and the little novice are masters and apprentices, their personalities are completely different.
The high monk gave people a sense of calm and cultivation, while the little novice looked like a thug in the market, and his eyes were full of contempt.
Grandfather looked carefully at the situation by the river at this moment, the monk kept standing still, and as time passed, the monk was still standing straight, like a statue.
Several villagers beside him began to yawn, and it was already the second half of the night, and the villagers who came with the great-grandfather could not stand it anymore, so they thought about going back, but they were still embarrassed to speak, for fear that the fierce little novice would scold them.
So a few villagers asked my grandfather to help talk, and although my grandfather was also hopeful and afraid of the little novice, he still stood up for a few of the villagers, and he went up to the little novice and told him that some of the villagers wanted to go home and rest.
When Xiao Shami heard this, his face showed anger, and he said angrily, "My master and I are here to help your village get rid of the demon, and now the demon has not been removed, and the master and I are not sleepy, but you are tired of a few things?" ”
Grandfather Gao was a little embarrassed by Xiao Shami's words, he looked back at a few villagers, and saw that several villagers were also red with shame.
Although what this little novice said was harsh, it was also a big truth, and the great grandfather couldn't refute it, but seeing that a few of the accompanying villagers were really sleepy and yawning, he relented and begged the little novice again.
"You can go back, but you can't all go back, you have to leave someone with us."
The little novice suddenly said this, and after hearing this, the great grandfather hurriedly said, "Thank you, little master, then I'll stay and let them go back." ”
Hearing my great-grandfather say this, Xiao Shami was stunned, he originally wanted to see a picture of several villagers arguing over who to keep, but he didn't expect my great-grandfather to selflessly choose to stay by himself.
Little Shami looked at my great-grandfather and whispered, "Are you sure?" If you stay, you don't know how long it will take, and it may be dangerous. ”
Hearing the words of the little novice, my great-grandfather was stunned, but he was not frightened, he nodded to the little novice very firmly, and said, "I'll stay, let them go back." ”
Seeing that my great-grandfather was so determined, the little novice sighed, and then waved his hand impatiently.
Grandfather Gao smiled and said "thank you", and then he ran over to a few villagers and said, "The little master agrees that you will go back first, so let's go." ”
Several villagers also heard the conversation between the grandfather and the novice, and they thanked the grandfather, said "thank you", and then left.
After waiting for a few villagers to leave, Xiao Shami walked up to my great-grandfather, snorted coldly and said, "They left happily, and no one cares if you are tired or not. ”
My great-grandfather smiled and said to the little novice, "Everyone is a village, I don't mind so much, and I was the one who came to show you the way in the first place, they all came with me, and now I should stay if I want to stay." ”
Hearing me my great-grandfather say this, the little novice snorted, and then said coldly, "It's rare to see people like you, but good people don't necessarily have good rewards these days." ”
Although this little novice is married, everything does not look like a Buddhist, which surprised my great-grandfather, because he waited with the little novice for the end of the monk's view, so he took the initiative to talk to the little novice.
At first, the little novice didn't pay much attention to my great-grandfather, but then he was bored without talking, so he didn't say a word to my great-grandfather.
During the conversation between the two, my great-grandfather knew that this little novice was called Bujie, and that he was a monk who practiced on Mount Wutai, and that his master, who was also a monk by the river, was called Haokong, and that he was the abbot of the Buddhist temple on Mount Wutai.
