Chapter 111: Confession
"Coming back?"
Before I could get closer, I saw the master sitting in the doorway. The weather in Jiangcheng is not as hot as in Jincheng, and even at night, it is still hot.
This little old man, dressed in a white sweatshirt, sat at the door. I actually smoked, I remember after my sister died. The master never smoked again. The cigarette was rolled by himself with tobacco, and the smell washed his nose.
"I'm back, what's going on in Xiangxi?" Seeing him like this, my heart tightened, it couldn't be that something had happened, right?
"It has been dealt with, and the matter has alarmed the ruins, and the conflict between the two parties has been directly suppressed. No one dares to risk a big deal and cause a big mess. ”
It's as simple as that? Anyway, I don't believe it. The relationship between the world of art is inherently complicated. If it is really suppressed by force, it cannot be said to be counterproductive.
I didn't bother to ask, but it turned out to be good anyway. What is in the process is not very important, as long as the contradictions between the two parties are not stimulated, there will not be so many moths.
"Tomorrow, you and I will go to Guiyuan Temple."
Before I could ask, the master's figure had long since disappeared, leaving only an inexplicable sigh.
I went to ask Brother Zhuzi, and Brother Zhuzi only told me that they went to Xiangxi, and as for what they did, I don't know, as if he was banned by the master.
Guiyuan Temple is the largest temple in Jiangcheng, and incense has always been prosperous. When it comes to the Fa meeting, it is really crowded. Now it is the National Day holiday, and there are not a few people.
I've only been here once or twice as a tourist, and I should be a regular visitor to see the master's familiar appearance. There are many monks who will greet the master.
"Let's go see Kongwu."
It was me and the master who came today, and Brother Zhu and Xiao Tong did not accompany him. And the master's footsteps are very fast, which amazes me again.
"Mr. Zhou!" The little novice at the door of a meditation room clasped his hands together, "The host is meeting guests." ”
"Shen, who's coming?"
"Host Qiyu, it's Mr. Zhou."
"Oh! Let him in! ”
The little novice pushed open the meditation room and welcomed us in. Inside was sitting an old monk with white hair and white beard, with a kind face, and his eyes seemed to have spiritual light, which could see through people's hearts.
And across from him was a man and a woman, also thirty years old, who were very respectful to the host. I can see that I have a request, and my face is full of hope and pleading.
"Master Wei, please go back! I can't help with that! "Emptiness is to send off guests.
The man surnamed Wei did not give up, "Master Kongwu, I know you have this ability, as long as you should come down, I promise to add one million incense to Guiyuan Temple and renovate the temple." After the deed is done, there is another reward. ”
"It's not that the old man refuses to help, but he can't help." Kongwu's hand pointed to us as if it were nothing, but the master just smiled and didn't move.
As he turned his head, he realized my presence. The brow furrowed slightly, and it quickly relaxed.
The man glanced at us in disbelief, "In this way, we won't disturb Master Kongwu's meditation." ”
With that, he walked out with the woman, and nodded politely as she passed by us.
I think that people's abilities are not weak, and this kind of person is definitely a rich and noble person. But seeing his sad and depressed face, he was hiding something in his heart, and he was afraid that he would ask Master Kongwu to go out of the mountain to do something.
"I said how could there be a magpie nesting on the Bodhi tree in front of the door today, it turned out that you were here from Master Zhou." The great monk smiled kindly.
The master glanced at him, "You're getting better at talking, what's wrong?" Something to ask me? As soon as I saw you, I sold me. ”
"No, no, it's not like you lost to me twenty and eight times in chess last time, and you said that you won't come again! I haven't seen each other for so many days, and I miss it. ”
The master suddenly had an urge to slap the bald head, and the stab was painful. The master's chess stinks well, not only the chess stinks, but the chess also stinks, but he just likes to play chess, and he often plays tricks when he plays with me.
I'm afraid that the relationship between the two is good, and they joke when they meet, and the master is only a little annoyed. With a wave of his hand, "Take out your treasured hair tips." ”
Master Kongwu knew the master's temperament very well, and directly asked the little novice to serve tea.
This great monk is famous in Jiangcheng and even the whole country, and he is also a figure in the magic world. Its realm is not very clear, but Buddhism has never been so clear.
They practice the five senses, namely the eye, the ear, the nose, the tongue, and the body. Pay attention to pure heart and few desires, and have no quarrel with the world. He has a very deep understanding of the afterlife and the degree of transformation.
Although Buddhism is now very utilitarian, there are also a few monks who can firmly hold their hearts and remain unmoved. Master Kongwu is one of the eminent monks, otherwise it would not be possible to become good friends with my master.
"He, but the baby?"
I'm nervous, and Kongwu also knows me? As far as I know, when the master carried me from Jincheng to Jiangcheng, there were not a few people who knew about it. But my origins have always been an unsolved mystery.
"Yes, this is the first time I've asked him to see you." The master stared at Kongwu.
Sora Wu let out a long sigh, "yes! The first time, I asked several times to let me see this child, but you always refused. ”
"It's not that I don't want to, it's that you don't want to see you, otherwise I can't stop you, can I?"
Here, I can't interject. I could only stabilize my heart and slowly drank this top-notch hair tip. The fragrance of tea lingers for a long time, refreshing people's hearts, and is better than all the tea leaves treasured by the master. No wonder the name asks for this tea.
"But why did you let me see him today?"
"Do you know about the Jiangcheng corpse robbery that happened a few days ago?" The master said slowly, "It's rare that you can be so calm. ”
The two of them fought sharply, and I couldn't pay attention to a word. But I have personally participated in the Jiangcheng corpse robbery case, and of course I am very familiar with it.
Master Kongwu picked up the cup and said, "Because I know that you will definitely make a move, so I am not in a hurry." ”
"Why are you so sure I'm going to make a move? What if I don't? After all, I have already retired, even if I am killed or alive, what does it matter to me? The master chuckled, and seemed to really don't care.
"Because you are Zhou Mushan." Firmly.
"Huang Xin, do you know who he is?"
As soon as the master's words changed, I was a little confused, and Mu Ne said, "It's the master of Kongwu who is the presiding officer of Guiyuan Temple." ”
"Do you know why I didn't go anywhere when I left Jincheng and came to Jiangcheng alone?"
In the face of the master's questioning, I really don't know the answer. I have been in Jiangcheng since I was a child, and I even thought that my master was a person from Jiangcheng until I went to Jincheng.
Why did the master come to Jiangcheng, this is something I have never understood. Shi Niang is not from Jiangcheng, but why did the master come to Jiangcheng, there are many provinces and cities in Huaguo, and the world is big, you can go there. With the master's ability, you can mix the wind and water everywhere.
"Don't embarrass him." Master Kongwu said softly, his gaze finally on me.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but I actually feel a trace of love. And his face always felt familiar to me, like I had seen it somewhere. But I just can't remember.
"Child, because your mother is from Jiangcheng. And I'm your mother's own uncle..."
My body shook violently, and my heart was even more shocked. What did he just say? My mother's own uncle? Isn't that my grandfather? Although he is not a grandfather, he is also very close by blood.
I turned my head to the master, puzzled and confused. The master smiled at me and said, "There are some things that I can tell you when the time comes." What should be known to you, will be known. He is indeed your second grandfather. ”
I hit the stomach full of questions again, and I looked at the person in front of me who said it was my grandfather. It's obviously not far away, why haven't you recognized each other all the time? Where are my parents?
"When I took him away, I didn't live up to your expectations."
"His surname is Huang?"
"Yes, the surname is Huang. He can't have your last name, he can't have my last name, he can only have his father's last name. This is an account I owe to the man. Twenty-four into twenty-five, the master of magic, the master of medicine, when I am the disciple of Zhou Mushan, but also the grandson of the Huang family. ”
The master poured a glass of water directly into his mouth and laughed.
"Yes, it was right to entrust him to you in the first place. If I had been taught, I wouldn't have achieved anything like this. "Kongwu, it should be said that my grandfather sighed.
"Child, it's not that I don't want to recognize you, it's that there's too much involved. You've grown up, and there are some things you really need to know. ”
I was in a complicated mood and was about to listen to my ears, but the master immediately interrupted, "Are you old and confused?" I didn't bring him to let you tell him this. ”
I didn't have the slightest displeasure at the master's interruption. Over the years, I have been more obedient to my master, relying on and trusting him.
The second grandfather stroked the long silver beard with his hand, and a glint flashed in his eyes, "It's that I'm obsessed, don't say it!" Say it! What made you take him for a walk? ”
"I don't believe you guessed, you're still playing dumb. Do you really think that you have cultivated to the realm of pure heart and few desires, no joy and no sorrow? ”
"Everything has a way, like a dream bubble. If dew is like electricity, it should be viewed as such. The second grandfather closed his eyes and said, "I'm already an empty person, so why bother with dust." The ups and downs of sentient beings are not something that I can save by myself, so why bother to increase our troubles. ”
