Chapter 246: The Meaning of Tranquility
"Brother Guan!" The old monk folded his hands in front of his chest and gave Guan Shi a monk salute back.
I was surprised to hear what they called each other, and I couldn't help but look at the old monk who was called "Phantom Brother" by Guan Shi.
I was even more amazed when I saw it.
The old monk's face was full of wrinkles, layer upon layer, and he looked very old, but his eyes were big and bright, and he looked very young, as if he was only in his twenties, and it didn't match the wrinkles on his face at all.
What's even worse is that his eyes are aqua blue.
I don't think this old monk can also wear contact lenses, maybe he is a mixed-race, so his eyes are aqua blue.
Seeing me staring at him, the old monk nodded at me and smiled.
His teeth were neat and white, and he didn't look like an old rao at all.
However, it wasn't his neat, white teeth that struck me, but his smile.
Seeing his smile, I felt inexplicably very kind, and I had an urge to get close to him.
But because I looked at him and was discovered by him, I felt embarrassed, I didn't dare to get close to him, and I hid behind Guan Yan.
Guan Yan grabbed my hand, pulled me to my side, pointed to the old monk and said to me: "This is my old friend for many years, this is his apprentice, there is nothing." ”
"Amitabha!" When the monk was introduced, the monk stepped forward slightly, folded his hands in front of his chest, and bowed his head and recited a sentence of Amitabha.
Ben Wu monk did not bow his head, I haven't noticed anything, as soon as he lowered his head, I found that his eyebrows, eyes, and lips were so familiar, as if I had seen them somewhere.
But for a moment I couldn't remember where I had seen it.
At this time, the monk raised his head and said, "The poor monk has prepared a meal, and invited the three donors to come in and eat." ”
We followed the old monk and the monk to the temple.
"Where have you seen it?" As I walked towards the temple, I wondered where I had seen this Wasan
Suddenly, I remembered where I had seen it.
After thinking about it, I excitedly tugged on Guan Shi's sleeve and called him in a very loud voice: "Guan Shi, Guan Shi......"
And motioned with his eyes for him to stop.
I thought that my own voice was very good, and only me and Guan Yan could hear it, but I didn't know that everyone present could hear my voice.
Cang Li tilted his head and glanced at us, and then followed the old monk and them as if nothing had happened.
"What's wrong?" Guan Shi is quite smart, he listens to my voice very well, knows that I don't want others to hear me, and he is also very vocal when he talks to me.
I stood on tiptoe, put my hand over my mouth, and leaned into his lowered ear and said, "Have you noticed that the monk looks like a person?" ”
"Like whom?"
I looked down and pointed to the bracelet on my wrist, "Like the Buddha in this bead." ”
"Oh, I thought you were like." Guan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "It is estimated that they are all studying Buddhism, so they are born from the heart, a bit like it." ”
"Is that so?" I think this explanation is a bit far-fetched.
If this is the reason, then how can the old monk not be like the Buddha in the Buddha beads.
There are other monks who study Buddhism, how is it not like the Buddha in the Buddha beads.
"Can you think of anything else besides this?" Guan Shi asked rhetorically.
I shook my head: "Maybe you're right." ”
"Well, let's go eat first."
When I went to the dining hall with Guan Shi, the meal was already ready.
The monk invited us to sit down, and Guan Shi and the old monk made it next to each other, and I sat next to Guan Shi, and the old monk sat opposite each other.
Next to me was the monk, and Cang Li sat next to me at a table with me.
As I sat down, the old monk smiled at me again.
As soon as I saw the old monk's smile, I felt so kind that I couldn't help but want to be close to him.
I smiled politely at the old monk and looked down at the food.
I saw five dishes and one soup on the table, which looked very light, as if there was no oil, but I didn't expect it to taste very good, and it had a different flavor.
The old monk didn't talk to the monk when he ate, he didn't talk to Guan Shi, and I didn't dare to speak, so I ate quietly.
After eating quietly, the monk quickly put away the dishes and chopsticks, brought a pot of tea, and gave us a cup of tea for each skirt.
When drinking tea, the old monk said: "Brother Guan, how about tasting this tea?" ”
"Good!" Guan Fan picked up the teacup, slowly tasted several sips of tea, put down the teacup and replied: "Good tea, a little quiet." ”
"This is cultivated according to the quiet cultivation method, but the conditions are limited, and I can't reach the quiet environment, so I can only mean it." After that, the old monk picked up the teacup and drank tea.
I also picked up my teacup, took a sip, and savored it.
I don't feel like it's quiet, I just feel very light, it's similar to drinking boiled water, and I can't help but speculate in my heart: Is this the meaning of tranquility?
I think it's almost the same as calling it light, but I don't know that Qingyou is the name of tea.
I couldn't drink the taste of tea, and the water was a little hot, so I wanted to put the cup down.
But just as I was about to put down the cup, Guan Yan reached over, held my hand and said, "Take two more sips and see." ”
I took two more sips as I said, and when I took the first sip, the taste of the tea came out, astringent, and a little bitter.
When I took the second sip, the taste changed again, and it became sweet and sweet.
"This tea...... It's delicious. I looked at Guan Shi and said with surprise and joy.
Guan Shi was nothing, and the old monk sitting opposite me said: "If you like it, drink more, I have a lot of it here." ”
"Thank you." I thanked the old monk and took another sip of tea, the sweetness was even worse, faintly with a little aroma, and the more I drank it, the more it tasted.
After drinking tea, the old monk took us to the place where we lived.
It was a big room with a bed, a wardrobe, a sofa, and some furniture, and a lot of space.
After the old monk took us to the place where we lived, we left.
Guan Shi closed the door and asked me how I felt.
I'm feeling pretty good.
Growing up, I've been to many temples, but I've never lived in a temple yet, so it feels fresh.
I walked to the window, opened it, and a cool breeze blew in my face.
As far as the eye can see, it is all green, green trees and green grass.
Guan Shi stood behind me and looked out the window with me.
I suddenly remembered something, turned my head and asked, "Guan...... Husband, how did you and this friend of yours meet? He looks very old, much older than you. ”
I originally wanted to call Guan Shi, but Guan Shi looked at me, and I instantly understood, and changed my name to his husband in time.
"I met him on the plane before, and I talked to him, and I have kept in touch for many years."
"Oooh. Do you know much about him? Is he a half-breed? His eyes were aqua blue. I asked, a little gossipy.
When Guan Yan heard this question, he "touched" "touched" my head and smiled: "I don't know about this, but I guess it shouldn't be." ”
