91. Don't have a picture
Of course, the idea of bringing a brick is just a temporary idea for talking about Mo. At first, he couldn't find a suitable thing, so he found a brick, but now that this artifact is so powerful, there are naturally better alternatives.
For example, swords.
However, it is a bit inappropriate for a monk to carry a knife or a small sword, so what Tan Mo really considers is a bowl.
It is best to use an iron bowl.
It is not easy to rust and does not consider it, as long as it is heavy enough to stun people.
Tan Mo put the scriptures back in their original places, that is, in the two small boxes. Two spells, two scriptures of the Ten Perfect Kings, this line of work has benefited him a lot.
He went out of the door and told a nearby maid that he had finished reading the scriptures and asked her to return them to Yizai.
The maid seemed to have been instructed a long time ago, and when she heard Tan Mo say it, she agreed, entered Tan Mo's house, and took away the two small boxes.
Then the maid came with another chest.
This time it's a big wooden box.
The wooden box is filled with all kinds of books, including Buddhist scriptures, Taoist scriptures, and Confucian scriptures, most of which are annotations of predecessors and sages. In just one copy of the Analects, there are more than a dozen annotated editions in this box. Each annotated version is the work of a Confucian sage.
"This is given by the layman to the little master to relieve boredom, if the little master likes it, he can take it away directly." The maid said.
Tan Mo then folded his hands and thanked him solemnly: "Nan Wu Amitabha, thank you for the senior sister, and ask the maid to tell the little monk." ”
This is a gesture of favor from Yi Zheng, Tan Mo wants to live in peace, so he can only accept it honestly.
In addition, the act of calamity may also have the intention of restraining him.
Yi Zheng and Yi Luo, this time is probably not a simple get-together, they are undoubtedly calculating something. If Tan Mo refuses, I am afraid that he will be suspected of having ulterior motives.
What's more, this is exactly what he wants.
Tan Mo picked up a book and began to flip through it.
Night fell quickly.
Nothing happened overnight.
However, the next day, Tan Mo didn't see Yi Zai and Yi Luo, and when he asked the maid, he found out that Yi Zai and her junior sisters left in the middle of the night last night.
Tan Mo didn't ask much, and after breakfast, just like in the temple, he started his daily homework.
After finishing today's practice, Tan Mo exhaled lightly, feeling that the feeling of cutting the axe and chiseling in his body was slowly reducing, so he took out the book he hadn't finished reading yesterday and continued to read.
What he was reading now was a commentary on the Heart Sutra.
The commentary of this Heart Sutra is basically picking up people's teeth and wisdom, and in terms of casual understanding, it can be said that there is nothing outstanding. But some of the short stories interspersed in it are particularly interesting.
These little stories are not all Buddhist, but also Taoist.
For example, a small story that Tan Mo was watching.
It talks about a Taoist with great magical powers, who settled on an island overseas with his wife and children. Once when he went out, he calculated that his trip was risky, so he made a basin of water and put a paper boat in it, hoping to hide from the world and avoid this crisis.
For the sake of insurance, the Taoist deliberately asked his disciple to watch it, so as not to let his playful daughter get close.
I never thought that this disciple had already secretly communicated with the Taoist's wife, so as soon as the Taoist left, he ignored the wooden plate containing water. The Taoist's daughter was a girl, and when she saw a paper boat floating in the wooden basin, she immediately played happily.
The paper boat rose and fell in the water and was then torn apart by the daughter of the Taoist.
In this way, the Daoist's approach was not only in vain, but under the backlash of the Dao, he was almost seriously injured and died. Fortunately, Dao was killed, and after the ship was wrecked at sea, he was actually rescued and returned to the island.
After returning, the Taoist called his disciples to scold him, but after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong.
Eventually, the Taoist found himself with a hat on his head.
However, he did not show it, but quietly turned his disciple into a pig, and then dragged him to the market to be slaughtered and sold.
With the money from the sale of pigs, he bought a string of sugar gourds for his daughter.
The daughter of the Taoist, who was crying because her senior brother was missing and her playmates were missing, immediately forgot about her senior brother as soon as she saw the sugar gourd.
This little story is very interesting to write, which makes Tan Mo watch it with relish.
Before you know it, it's dark again.
When Tan Mo was about to sleep, he suddenly heard a noise outside, which was caused by many people running around, so he walked out, looked at a maid holding a torch high and asked, "Donor, but what happened?" ”
"Little Master, there is a thief in the house, we are catching the thief, disturbing the little master, please atone for your sins."
"I see." Tan Mo clasped his hands together, thanked him, and then returned to his room.
Hearing that he was catching a thief, whether it was true or not, Tan Mo didn't care.
Lying on the bed and falling asleep, Tan Mo didn't fall asleep, the movement outside gradually disappeared, followed by silence, thinking that the thief was caught.
Tan Mo was about to close his eyes, but suddenly, Tan Mo found that his door was quietly opened, followed by a figure quickly turned in, and then quickly closed the door with both hands.
At this moment, it was dark in the room, so Tan Mo couldn't see who was coming in.
But listening to the sound of the other party's breathing, the other party should be injured now.
Faintly, Tan Mo also smelled a smell of blood.
Undoubtedly, this one is probably the thief that the maids are going to catch. Tan Mo was very surprised, this thief was not caught, and slipped into his room like this.
And looking at this person's skillful action of opening and closing the door, it is obvious that this person is very familiar with Yizai's mansion, and he still has the key to Yizai's mansion in his hand.
Just entered the house, Tan Mo locked the door.
But this little thief came in so easily and quickly, and if he didn't have the key in his hand, he couldn't say anything.
Tan Mo couldn't help but become curious about this person's identity.
This thief is obviously a house thief.
So, what exactly is this thief looking for in Yizai's mansion?
Tan Mo was strange in his heart, seeing that the figure was just squatting at the door, without the intention of walking to his bedside, he thought about it, and simply pretended to sleep.
If the other party doesn't move, then he doesn't move either.
In this way, when it was about the fourth watch, this person moved.
I saw this man open the door and go out quickly.
After going out, he closed the door for Tan Mo.
The footsteps outside grew fainter and weaker, and soon they were inaudible.
Tan Mo got up at this time, and he walked to the place where the person was squatting. On the fourth watch, the sky was already a little bright, and Tan Mo's eyes were not completely dark, he looked at it and soon made a discovery.
