Chapter 123: The Leper Monk
Companionship is the most affectionate confession, and this kind of companionship is still the kind that can't be seen at all, the female anchor finally left, she didn't wait for the person who asked her to come here, and it is estimated that she will reply when she goes back and ask why the account missed her appointment.
But what she may not know is that that person has left this yang world forever.
The boy took the initiative to let Zhou Ze send it, Zhou Ze didn't ask him what obsession made him stay in the yang world all the time, and he didn't answer, this time sending the soul to hell was very easy and simple.
Even, it can be described as "peaceful".
There was no resistance, no struggle, no dissatisfaction, there was just a kind of calmness.
After finishing this business, Zhou Ze went to take a bath and went upstairs to rest, after moving to the new store, the "business" was actually much better, looking at the piled up banknotes, it could indeed give the "ghost" a great sense of satisfaction.
When he woke up, it was already noon, and when he went downstairs, Zhou Ze saw Lao Dao sitting behind the bar and teasing the little monkey.
"Morning, boss." Say hello to the old way.
Zhou Ze nodded.
Sitting down on the sofa by the window, the lazy and sun-soaked day is about to start again, this kind of life is really pleasant, especially looking at the endless flow of people outside South Street.
The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, watching people are busy for their livelihoods and dreams, but they can steal half a day of leisure, there is a comparison of superiority, and there is superiority to have a better enjoyment.
"Boss, what to drink?"
When will Zhou Ze start, when will the white warbler get up, once she leaves too far, Zhou Ze's sleep will be interrupted.
"Tea bar."
Bai Yingying quickly made tea and brought it over, and at the same time put an ashtray in front of Zhou Ze, and then helped Zhou Ze finish lighting a cigarette before leaving.
Sometimes, Zhou Ze herself is a little confused, whether Bai Yingying knows the instructions left by Mrs. Bai, so she will take care of herself, but it seems that she really has a silly and sweet feeling, and she also respects and worships her Madame Bai.
There are some problems that are not suitable for getting to the bottom of things, so it will be boring, and Zhou Ze is willing to continue to pretend to be confused.
Drinking tea,
smoking,
Anyway, there aren't many ghosts during the day, and after night, I won't be really busy.
In fact, Zhou Ze still likes to sit in the bookstore, waiting for guests to come to the door, just like Jiang Taigong fishing for a wisher to take the bait, not that it is very B-style, but that he feels that he is not tired.
He doesn't like to go out and run around, it's too much of a toss.
Picking up today's newspaper and looking through it, the case of gambling is already fermenting and being tried, the police dispatched very quickly, and one by one the behind-the-scenes investors and so on have been controlled and arrested, and what awaits them will be a just trial.
At this moment, the door of the bookstore behind Zhou Ze was pushed open, and the person who walked in made Lao Dao's eyes light up, and his eyes immediately showed a fierce light!
It's no wonder that Lao Dao is like this suddenly, because the person who came in was a monk with a ring scar on his head, and it seemed that he had a leprosy, a leper monk, which was very interesting.
The monk is not tall, just one meter six, a little blessed, there is no Taoist monk's bearing, and it is not a loss than the poss of the old Taoist fairy wind bone opposite.
Since ancient times, Buddhism and Taoism do not look at each other, in ancient dynasties, when Taoism flourished, it destroyed Buddha, and when Buddhism flourished, it was destroyed.
From the standpoint of the old way, the book house is his territory, and this leper monk is like coming to kick the museum.
But what he didn't expect was that the leper monk didn't look at Lao Dao at all, and he just smiled at the "antagonistic meaning" released by Lao Dao, and then walked directly to Zhou Ze and sat down.
"A cup of tea."
The leper monk said.
Lao Dao brought a cup of tea with a gloomy face, and reminded at the same time: "The minimum consumption here is one hundred, and besides, fortune telling and feng shui are not accepted here." ”
The leper monk raised his head slightly, looked at Lao Dao, and said with a smile:
"We're different."
We're not the same,
A very deep sentence that not only belittles the old way, but also exalts himself.
It means that you are a god stick who eats and mixes, I have real talent and real learning, we are different.
Zhou Ze spit out a puff of smoke ring, which happened to spray on the other party's face.
It's not that Zhou Ze wants to give Lao Dao a head, after all, the visitor is a guest, but as soon as the other party enters the bookstore, Zhou Ze has a vague sense of alarm.
The leper monk was not annoyed, but just put his hands together and chanted: "Amitabha." ”
For a while, Zhou Ze suddenly felt uncomfortable all over his body, as if there were ants crawling on his body.
At that moment, Zhou Ze's fingers holding the cigarette began to slowly grow black nails.
"The donor is angry, the poor monk is here to drink tea and read books, and there is no malice."
The leper monk let go of his hands, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea, and at that moment, Zhou Ze's discomfort subsided.
"Go ahead." Zhou Ze said to Lao Dao.
The old way can only retreat.
"Donor, it's really interesting for this store to open in the middle of the city, and it's elegant and quiet to live in the downtown area."
Zhou Ze didn't speak.
"The poor monk is parading in all directions, and he happened to come to Tongcheng today, but found that the original two old friends were gone, and he was really curious.
"Who are those two friends of yours?"
"One is a woman, just a young age. An old man, when the Temple of Literature. ”
Zhou Ze thought slightly in his heart, the former should be referring to the female ghost who had a problem, and the latter should be the old dwarf of the Confucian Temple.
"You're here to avenge them?"
"Neither is it, the origin and the fate are extinguished, there is a fixed number, joys and sorrows, all by the mandate of heaven, everything, can not be forced, nor forced, the poor monk came today, just want to see the donor, and the donor to sit and meet, and then form a good fate."
"It seems that the people who have a good relationship with you will not end well."
When the leper monk heard this, he smiled speechlessly.
Then, Zhou Ze didn't speak, and the leper monk didn't speak, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
It was probably when the tea was cold that the leper monk spoke:
"The poor monk is here to say some ideas and ideas to the messenger, and the poor monk will always find the local messenger to talk about it everywhere."
"You say, I'll listen. After saying that, the money has to be given as well. ”
"The Buddha said that all living beings are equal, and that the living beings here are not only the living, but also the dead, who were born and grew up in the Buddha, and are actually no different from the living.
In the eyes of the poor monks, they are also human beings and members of all beings.
Those who seek goodness are the foundation of all living beings and should be cared for.
Those who fall into evil are a calamity to all sentient beings and should be punished.
There are ghosts and ghosts who harm people, and they have their own vajra angry eyes, but ordinary dead souls, or those who linger in the world because of obsession or for various reasons, poor monks feel that they have this power and this freedom.
However, the matter of Yin Si, since the collapse of Taishan Mansion, has been practiced with the method of grade point performance, and all ghosts who stay in the world will be detained to hell.
The poor monk has always disagreed with this kind of behavior.
Therefore, come to persuade the poor, ghosts also have likes and dislikes, and there are also pros and cons, everything must not be one-size-fits-all, otherwise it is lazy government, it is lazy government. ”
Zhou Ze wanted to laugh a little.
Seeing Zhou Ze's reaction, the leper monk sighed, a doer, should sail against the current, knowing that he can't do it.
He picked up the newspaper in front of Zhou Ze and flipped to the last page, which said news from another province, about a murder case.
"This newspaper was read by the poor monk, and when this happened, the poor monk himself was not far from there.
A man went missing, his relatives reported the incident, and the police speculated that he might have been killed, but the body could not be found, so there was nothing to be done.
At this time, a woman in the same village told the police that her late mother had told her that someone had buried her next to her house and occupied her land last night.
At first, the police just joked, but when they sent people to check on the grave of his old mother, they found a newly turned clod of earth, and after excavation, they found the body of the missing man.
Later, according to the evidence remaining on the corpse, the real murderer was found, who was Li from the same village.
The real culprit was caught, and the victim was able to see him.
In this, the soul of the woman's old mother has done good deeds, and good and evil are in her heart.
Although she stayed in the local area and never went to hell, she didn't hurt anyone, and even helped people, such a ghost, do you think Yin Si should put her in hell?
She may just want to watch her children and grandchildren grow up and carry on the lineage, that's all. ”
Zhou Ze picked up the herbal tea, took a sip, and shook his head.
Obviously, Zhou Ze does not agree with this statement.
"You still haven't been able to move me, I'm sorry, let you run for nothing, you can go to other cities and other realms, find other ghosts and talk about your ideals and ideas, maybe you can find a soulmate, and then fight for ghost power with you."
The leper monk smiled helplessly, obviously, he had seen a lot of this kind of feedback, and he picked up the newspaper again with some helplessness, looked at the news on it, and sighed again.
Zhou Ze stretched out his hand and pressed down the newspaper.
The leper monk looked at Zhou Ze with some puzzlement.
"Monk, there is a saying that don't rush before you learn to go, you said that you have been fighting for the rights of ghosts, but you can't even understand people, what qualifications do you have to speak to ghosts?"
"What's the explanation?"
Zhou Ze stretched out his hand and poked at the news, shook his head, and said:
"You said you were in that place, so did you find the old mother's ghost in that village?"
The leper monk shook his head, "The poor monk is not fortunate to see it, if he is lucky to see it, he must treat him with courtesy, although the old man is down, but the good thoughts still exist." ”
Zhou Ze smiled, "I haven't been to that place, but I can bet you with a drawer of dead money, there is no soul of this old mother at all, and after she dies, her soul will already go to hell." ”
"How is that possible...... You are a ghost, don't you believe that there are ghosts in this world? ”
The leper monk thought it was ridiculous.
"The missing and killed people are from the same village.
The murderer who killed and hid the corpse was also from the same village.
And then a woman who dreamed of telling the police clues was also from the same village, isn't that obvious enough? ”
Zhou Ze lit another cigarette and said: "The newspaper said that the police didn't believe it at first, but after digging up the cemetery and finding the body, they also thought it was very strange.
But actually, I believe the local police know it in their hearts.
The woman came to report it, and it is likely that she passed by and saw it when the murderer was hiding the body. ”
"Then why didn't she just tell the police?" The leper monk asked.
"Because the murderer is also from this village, the murderer may have parents, children, and brothers and sisters.
Therefore, she pretended to be a ghost and a god, and what kind of old mother dreamed, and revealed the clues in this way, so that she would not be hated.
It's like a trafficking case in some remote areas, when you don't know that the neighbors bought a person back from the family?
Or do you think that the whole village is a bad person, no one has a conscience, no one has good thoughts in their hearts?
It's just because everyone thinks that if they report it, they will hurt the neighbors in the same village who don't look up and don't look down, even if they sympathize with the poor woman who was abducted and trafficked, they can only pretend not to see it. ”
The leper monk was slightly stunned, and said confusedly: "What is this?" ”
"Humanity."
