Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Other Side, E-Mei
Hearing Ikkong's answer, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but after all, this is Shaolin, and she has also seen the fanaticism of those believers, and she doesn't dare to lose her temper easily.
But if she wants to surrender her identity to talk to Yikong, she can't do it, so she ignores Yikong at the moment and throws off her robe sleeves and leaves.
Lin Yi followed behind the master step by step, holding the Broken Sky Sword tightly.
Seeing that this old nun was so arrogant, he didn't want to talk to her, so he ignored the abbot's instructions and turned away.
Ikkong's temper is not very good, he is the only person in Shaolin Temple who dares to occasionally contradict the abbot, even the abbot dares to contradict, this menopausal old nun is a fart.
Lin Yi followed behind the extinction and said to him, "Master, are we going to enter the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda to have a look?"
"Go in and see, I'm here to see what the so-called miracles of the Buddha are."
Two people followed the crowd and came to the door of the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda.
"The railing of this white marble step is very good, hmph, I don't know how much money was scraped before it was built", touching the cold railing, the exterminator was too bad.
"Look at this door, it's very heavy, the wood is very good, and it should have cost a lot of money."
Entering the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda, there are Buddha statues everywhere in sight, some large and some small, and the name of the Buddha is engraved below.
Annihilation first came to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva and bowed a few times, and then got up and said to Lin Yi: "Look, there are more than 1,000 Buddha statues on this floor, and that abbot is a business-minded person who can come up with such an idea."
Lin Yi kept silent next to the master, if she cooperated with the master to speak at this time, the more she spoke, the more angry she would become, and it would inevitably cause public anger again.
The two of them went all the way to the top and came down all the way, although the extinct old nun kept talking, but the surprise in his eyes could not be concealed.
The way and quality of construction of this tower is unique in her life, and according to modern parlance, it has surpassed the level of construction of that era.
I deliberately found fault all the way, and I didn't find any major faults.
After leaving the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda, the old nun was a little angry, looked around, and said to Lin Yi: "Let's go find the abbot."
The two of them searched all the way and came to the front of the small temple in Shaolin, which is now Huo Yuanzhen's residence.
Looking at the couplet hanging at the door, the old nun read it again: "Self-cultivation and self-control, don't come here to the other side, that is, the heart is the Buddha, you need to know that the east is the west sky, hum, the couplet is written well, but according to the poor nun, it is just a vassal elegance and self-deception."
"Amitabha, what do you say?"
After a Buddha call, Huo Yuanzhen appeared at the gate of the temple and looked at the two nuns in front of him.
"Who are you?" the old nun said contemptuously when she saw that Huo Yuanzhen was not very old.
"The poor monk is the abbot of the temple."
"Oh, you are the abbot, you are so young, I'm afraid you are not a few years older than my apprentice, no wonder you have done so many deviant things."
Huo Yuanzhen smiled, "The words of the master made the poor monk confused."
Annihilation put his hands behind his back, circled around Huo Yuanzhen back and forth, and then said, "Do you know what to explain to this couplet hanging in front of your door?"
"The poor monk is stupid, but a simple explanation can do it."
The pilgrims over there saw the abbot appear, and they all gathered around, but when they saw that the old nun seemed to be looking for trouble with the abbot, they all stood by and watched, and in their hearts, the old nun was doing this purely to ask for trouble.
Let's see how the abbot teaches her.
Seeing that many people were watching, it was in line with the intention of extinction, and she originally planned to expose Huo Yuanzhen's mask in front of everyone, so that people could recognize who this was.
"Well, let me ask you, do you know that the other side is reconciliation?"
"Elysium".
"Knowing that it is Elysium proves that you have read the Buddhist scriptures for a few days, but the poor nun will teach you a lesson today, so that you can understand the true meaning of the other side, and let you know that what you do will never reach the other side."
Huo Yuanzhen didn't speak, and quietly watched the extinction.
"Tell you the little monk, the other side is a yearning, a pursuit, a realm, only by cultivating the positive results and understanding the true meaning of Buddhism, can you reach the other shore and get rid of the sea of suffering, do you understand?"
Huo Yuanzhen looked at the old nun: "Master, is that all your explanation is?"
"That's right," said the Extinction Justified.
Huo Yuanzhen looked around, found Su Can in the crowd, stretched out his hand and beckoned, "Su Can, come here."
Su Can agreed and ran over.
Said to the extinction: "Shitai, this is a lay disciple of my Shaolin, I have suffered since I was a child, begging for food to make a living, I have not been in Shaolin for two months, and I have just come into contact with Buddhism."
When he heard that Su Can grew up begging, he immediately showed contempt and didn't even look at him with a straight eye.
Huo Yuanzhen said to the surroundings again: "Ladies and gentlemen, many of you know Su Can, tell me how Su Can compares with me after coming to Shaolin."
"I didn't say it, Su Can used to beg for food, but when he entered Shaolin, everything became better, and we all liked him very much."
"Yes, Shaolin is a place that leads people to goodness, a few days ago Su Can also helped our family carry water, saying that it was the abbot who taught him to do a good deed every day."
Everyone praised one after another, and they did not hesitate to praise them, and Su Can, who listened to it, was a little fluttering.
Huo Yuanzhen said to the extinction again: "Shitai, the poor monk said this, just to let you know that Su Can is just a person who has just entered Shaolin, and he is not a formal disciple, and the poor monk has nothing to teach him on weekdays, just a simple contact with Buddhism and practicing the body, since the master has put forward the views of the other side to the poor monk, then let me, a lay disciple, accompany the master to chat a few words, Su Can, tell the master, why is the other side?"
With the opportunity to perform in front of people, Su Can is also very happy, he was originally crazy and laughing, but now he can teach the old nun a lesson, and he can show off, how can he not like it.
"Mrs. Shi, our abbot asked me to tell you, then I will say it."
Annihilation snorted coldly in her nose and didn't speak, in her opinion, it was impossible for a person like Su Can to understand the Buddhist scriptures, let alone teach herself a lesson, this was just a shield that the abbot pulled out because he didn't understand.
Unexpectedly, Su Can said: "The Buddha said, Sanskrit jackfruit, this cloud to the other side, the meaning of separation from birth and death, the birth and extinction of the environment, such as the water has waves, that is, the name is this shore, leaving the country without life and death, such as the water often circulating, that is, the name of the other shore, there is the realm of life and death, called this shore, beyond the realm of life and death, called the other shore, the abbot taught us, cultivate the right fruit, the merit is complete, and you can reach the realm of Nirvana, that is, the other shore."
After Su Can finished speaking, the crowd next to him burst into applause: "Brother Su said so wow."
"That's the abbot's good teaching, and he has long insight."
Su Can saluted proudly around, and the beautiful snot bubbles were about to come out.
Huo Yuanzhen said in the back: "Shitai, my disciple, because I used to have a meal, my personality is a little naughty, I don't teach well, please don't blame Shitai, stinky boy, don't be embarrassed here, hurry up and see how the meal in the dining hall is prepared, there are many donors today, don't be lazy."
"Okay!".
Su Can wanted to run, but Huo Yuanzhen stopped him again: "By the way, remember to do more, these two teachers probably haven't eaten, well, they don't have to eat too much, presumably this teacher won't be too hungry at this time."
Su Can glanced at the old nun, hehe, he smiled, thinking that the abbot was bad enough, let his former little name Hanako teach him, presumably the old nun is about to explode by now, and she really won't feel hungry.
Sure enough, after being taught by Su Can in public again, the old nun's face was pale, her hands were clenched into fists, her joints were a little white, and if she listened carefully, she could still hear the sound of "click", and she was already on the verge of breaking out.
"Yes, yes, yes, abbot, you teach well!".
The old nun said three good words in a row, gritted her teeth, and seemed to have the intention of teaching Huo Yuanzhen a lesson at any time.
Huo Yuanzhen took a step forward and said to the extinction: "This teacher is too angry, it is easy to hurt the body, the monk should still be like water, not moved by external objects, and act too fiercely, which is not in line with the true intention of my Buddhist family, not to mention that you are still so old, you should be calmer, I don't know what the teacher thinks?"
Lin Yi next to her suddenly laughed out loud, and the annoyance glared at her fiercely, and she hurriedly covered her mouth in fright, but the smile between her eyebrows and eyes couldn't be hidden.
Extermination is forty years old this year, in fact, he is not old at all, and because he has been successful in martial arts, if he keeps long hair and changes into vulgar clothes, he looks like a young woman in her early thirties.
It's just that the evil aura between the eyebrows and eyes is a little seeping.
On weekdays, she hates others saying that she is old, if someone dares to call her so recklessly, she must not have a good face, and the people around her know her problem, she is very careful when she speaks, and even praises her and praises her for being too young.
But here today, Huo Yuanzhen is a teacher, and he is old, and he is even more desperate, but Lin Yi next to him is interesting to listen to.
"One precept, do you know who the poor nun is?"
Huo Yuanzhen thought for a while: "Well, the show girl came out of the boudoir and painted her eyebrows in the mirror, the poor monk Guan Shitai seems to have traces of thrushes these days, it shouldn't be the Emei faction!"
Extinction is actually very beautiful, the monk's robes she wears are all satin fabrics, and she will quietly draw her eyebrows from time to time, but it is very light, and the nuns around her are familiar with her, and they don't pay attention to these details, they did paint it yesterday morning, but they were unexpectedly seen by Huo Yuanzhen.
"What? Emei is an eyebrow, and the other Emei is a sect, is there any inevitable connection between this?"
Fang Caikong had already told Huo Yuanzhen the origin of the two of them, and now this old nun wanted to use the sect to suppress herself, of course Huo Yuanzhen would not give her a good attitude, but she still pretended to say: "It really doesn't matter, painting E's eyebrows is a practice of secular women, how can it be related to the Jianghu faction Emei, it is the poor monk who is reckless, so I don't know which sect the master comes from?"
After hesitating for a long time, seeing that everyone was waiting for him to answer, and this topic was brought up by himself, now that Huo Yuanzhen asked, he couldn't help but answer, and the extinction finally popped out two words from between his teeth: "Emei".
ps: (second watch) Why did it fall off? Donors, poor monks are not convinced!
