CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER XVII

"The little donor's body is very peculiar. I was young, and I didn't expect to experience so many things. The old man has no ill intentions, he is just a living person, and it is necessary to understand the heart of the donor. The donor has a good heart, and the old man is relieved."

The moment Zhang Chen shook hands with the old abbot, a strange and gentle energy invaded along Zhang Chen's arm and went straight to the main soul stone, there was no threat, it just wrapped the main soul stone, and gradually dispersed after half a minute.

"Is the master a cultivator?"

"Cultivator...... Haha, that's just a Taoist saying. Lao Qu is just a monk, he likes to read ancient books and poems on weekdays, guarding this longevity temple, not involved in the world. If a few donors don't build yƬ, please stay in the temple for a day, as for the reason for this, the old man counted four donors today and the temple is related."

The old monk in Zhang Chen's eyes has a strong and surging Buddha nature in his body, and his speech and demeanor reveal the appearance of a high-ranking monk. In addition, Zhang Chen intuitively told himself that it was necessary to stay here this night.

"Why don't you spend the night in this temple? How about we return to the city center tomorrow morning, take our luggage and go to Xiangtan?" Zhang Chen asked the people behind him.

"Hehe, I'm fine, this temple is very good, I can experience the feeling of being a monk for one night. But Master Abbot, you have to give us the best room and the best meals," Wang Yizhi said unceremoniously, provoking the abbot on the side to hold his white beard and smile slightly.

"I don't matter, I'll go wherever you go." Fireflies will never refute it.

"The host...... My body shouldn't stay here for long."

Xiao Ni just finished speaking. The abbot stretched out his finger a little in the air, and a halo of light was generated in front of Xiao Nirvana's body and spread to the surface of Xiao Nirvana's body, and finally absorbed by the pores.

Xiao Nirvana, who was originally with a strange complexion, suddenly became radiant. It seems that the body of the ghost insect is no longer eroded by the majestic Buddha nature in the temple, but has become affinity.

"The wise way in front of the door will lead you to the resting place. In the evening, the meal will naturally be more sumptuous than usual, so the donor will go and rest first."

Zhang Chen left the abbot's room with his hands folded, and the sweeping monk from before was still waiting at the door.

Following the young monks, they came to a unique wooden house, located near the edge of the temple. At the back of the hut there is also a pool of crystal clear water. There is a bamboo tube for drawing water by the pool, and a feeling of not being in the hustle and bustle of the world arises spontaneously.

"Wow! This place is so beautiful." Wang Yizhi immediately came to the edge of the pool, carried a bamboo tube, held a pool of clear spring water in her hand and sent it to her mouth, "This water has a hint of sweetness. Come and try it."

"The water in the pond comes from the fresh water at the bottom of the mountain, and for some reason it goes straight to the mountainside and comes out no matter how much water it contains. The height of the pool is consistent. But this spring water is only accessible to outsiders, like we have never tasted it once."

Zhang Chen came to the edge of the pool and put a puddle of water in his mouth with both hands. When the water enters the throat, there is a wonderful feeling that the whole body flows and expels the tiredness. Worm Firefly and Xiao Ni also drank a pool of spring water. There was a different kind of look in his eyes.

"Come with me, four, this wooden house is called Binranju. Specially designed for foreign guests. However, unless the abbot receives it himself, ordinary visitors are not allowed to stay overnight in the temple."

The young monk entered the room with four people. The design of the wooden house is very simple, with one aisle and two rooms on the left and right, just enough for four people. The layout of the room is the same as that of the abbot's room, one seat, one table, one chair. There is also a candle on the wooden table, as well as basic ancient books.

"Excuse me...... Little master, can I sleep with Sister Yizhi? We two girls take good care of each other together. And it's scary in the middle of the night."

"Naturally, the female donor is okay, but in the pure place of Buddhism, the other two male donors must not enter the female donor's room. Later, when it is time for fasting, the little monk will come to pick up the four donors." After the little monk finished speaking, he folded his hands and bowed slightly and left.

"This is tourism, the abbot is so good. Actually let us stay in such a nice room. I just looked at the mountain behind the temple not far from us. We can also go to the mountains and forests in the back mountains to see the night sky of Changsha at night. Sister Firefly must love this place too, right?"

Wang Yizhi hugged the insect firefly, pouted and kissed the insect firefly's fair face.

Immediately after that, the insect firefly moved the bed mat in his room to Wang Yizhi's room, the time was not early, everyone was busy in the room for a while, and the little monk with the Dharma name Huidao led Zhang Chen and the four people to a simple score of the dining room, the so-called fasting rice naturally refers to a meal without oil and meat. However, the firewood rice cooked in the temple exudes a unique aroma of rice, coupled with a few dishes of green vegetables and dried tofu, which can make people truly experience the simple life in the temple.

After the meal, under Wang Yizhi's construction, the four of them walked out of the back door of the temple and headed towards the top of the back mountain.

The four of them sat on the top of the mountain, listening to the chirping of summer cicadas in the mountains and forests behind them, and at the same time feeling the cool breeze on the top of the mountain, with a round of curved white moon hanging above their heads, I don't know if it was the reason for being on the top of the mountain, the bright moon in the line of sight looked extremely clear. I don't know how to evaluate such a scenario.

…………

The young monk named Hui Dao, after washing the plates, went to the gate of the monastery again.

When he was about to close the gate, he suddenly saw a yellow leaf scattered in the center of the gate. It's summer, dead leaves are very rare, and Huidao, who frowned slightly, picked up the bamboo broom leaning against the door. [,! Prepare to sweep away the dead leaves from the front of the door.

However, because the sun had already set on the hillside, in the dark mountain forest walkway, the sound of rapid steps reached the ears of Hui Dao, who was sweeping the floor.

Looking up at the dark mountain forest walkway, a young man with an anxious expression ran out of the darkness with messy steps, and had a feeling of grasping a life-saving straw after seeing Huidao.

"Little master, little master! Please help, my wife was walking on the mountain road just now and accidentally fell off the cliff. I can't find my wife alone." The young man grabbed Huidao's robe and said anxiously.

"I'm afraid the donor has come to the wrong place, this is a pure place for Buddhism. The donor's wife has been dead for a long time, and the donor and your wife have fallen off the cliff together. If you have wandered around this temple for a while, I will send you to where you should go in the name of the Great Shakyamuni."

When the man heard this, he grabbed Hui Dao's hand and let go. And slowly retreated until darkness covered his upper body.

In the darkness, the man's eyes suddenly took on a crimson color, "Crackling! The sound of bones breaking and muscle tearing sounded, and when he stepped forward again, he was already a demon with four arms and white bones.

"If I go to the mountain of swords, the mountain of swords will destroy itself; If I turn to the fiery soup, the fiery soup will destroy itself; If I go to hell, hell will dry up; If I turn to the hungry ghosts, the hungry ghosts will be full; If I go to Shura, I will be disgusted and subdued; If I give birth to a beast, I will find great wisdom."

When the man who turned into a demon pounced forward, the five sentences of "Great Compassion Mantra" were recited, and the bamboo broom in his hand was brilliant. The broom was in Hui Dao's hand, and because of the cattle, the evil ghosts that pounced on him instantly turned into golden light and dissipated in the night sky.

"Amitabha!" Hui Dao bowed slightly, turned around and walked towards the inside of the temple.

"This ......" Hui Dao's eyes, the dead leaves that had been swept away by himself before reappeared at the gate. Suddenly, a strange wind blew from all directions, and the whole night resounded in the mountains and forests with the sound of leaves, and if you listened carefully, it seemed that there was a hint of female sobbing in this sound.

Before the last two words of the six-character mantra ...... the six-character mantra were recited, an extremely cold and miserable white palm was placed on Hui Dao's shoulder, and the cold of the body immediately penetrated into Hui Dao's body, so that the monk's robe with Buddha nature could not be stopped.

Hui Dao, who couldn't help but turn his head, flashed a trace of fear in his eyes...... In an instant, the sound of the mountain forest and the woman's sobbing disappeared together.

"Boom!" The temple gate was slammed shut, and a bamboo broom and a patch of yellow leaves were scattered in the doorway......

…………

"What a feeling! If only I could stay here one more day."

Wang Yizhi, who was walking in the back mountain and was about to put it back in the temple, was full of praise for the environment here.

"It's best not to disturb others for a long time, we are worldly people, and the worldly aura contaminated with our bodies will inevitably have a bad impact on the temple. Besides, I'm sorry to trouble the abbot to prepare three meals a day for us. Next time we return to Changsha, we will come here again, and tomorrow we will take a car to Xiangtan as originally planned, okay?"

"Eun, listen to you. Ouch, my body is about to fall apart, and I'm going to rest early today. The flesh on Sister Worm Firefly is very warm, and the temperature in this mountain forest is relatively low tonight, so you can warm up your body with Sister Worm Firefly." Saying that, Wang Yizhi held the insect firefly beside her tightly.

When everyone returned to Binranju, the monk at the door was replaced.

"Little monk Hui Jie, Senior Brother Hui Dao, he is not feeling well, I will take the place of Senior Brother for the time being, he will receive you. There is still an hour before the temple bell rings to go to sleep, and I invite a few donors to come to the bathroom with me to wash away the dust of today."

Everyone who returned to Binranju went back to their rooms, Wang Yizhi deliberately walked last, and after Worm Ying and Xiao Ni returned to the room, she kissed her reddish lips lightly on Zhang Chen's lips, and then returned to the room with red cheeks.

Zhang Chen smiled slightly, in the temple shrouded in Buddha nature, he didn't have any vigilance, and after returning to the room, he lit the candle and read the ancient books on the table.

However, under a large locust tree ten meters away from Binranju, Huidao, who was wearing a monk's robe, stopped behind the tree and showed half of his body. Her eyes were all white, and she looked at the room where the candlelight had gone out...... (To be continued)
