When I saw an old house, my sister happily jumped on me again, and I laughed too. Thanks to God's grace, I found this place so quickly.

I thought that this master lived alone, but now I found out that there is not only one person here. But it doesn't matter how many people there are, as long as he's here.

We walked briskly down the path to the entrance of the house. Before we could speak, the bald head sweeping the floor saw us.

He walked over to us with a puzzled face on his face and made a Buddhist salute: "Hello two donors, do you have any advice?" ”

Is this bald head a monk? However, instead of wearing a monk's uniform, he wore a white T-shirt and a pair of black sweatpants.

Even though I had some doubts in my heart, my senior sister and I respectfully returned the salute. "Hello little master, my name is Liu Dagger, this is my senior sister Wen Jing, let's come to find a senior, I have Gu poison in my body, and I need the senior's help to solve the Gu."

"Antidote?" The monk said suspiciously, and then asked, "May I ask what is the name of the senior that Liu Shi is looking for, and the poor monk can go and report it." ”

"I'm sorry, I just heard a friend introduce that senior in the mountains, and I didn't know the senior's name. Could it be that there are still many seniors in this mansion who know Gu arts? I asked respectfully.

The monk smiled and said: "There are three seniors, but I don't know if I know Gu art or not, we live in seclusion here, self-cultivation, the three masters and uncles don't ask about the world now, Liu Shi mainly doesn't know who to look for, and the poor monk is a little difficult to introduce, because now there are two uncles who are still in retreat." ”

"That little master, it's getting late, can we borrow your land to stay overnight." Senior Sister suddenly said with a smile.

I looked up at the sun that had not yet climbed overhead, and I was speechless for a while.

The little monk must have been in the same mood as me, he just smiled awkwardly, and then said, "Yes, since the two donors need to stay overnight, there are no guests here recently, and a room can be vacated for the two donors to stay." However, we need to charge a nominal fee here. ”

"No problem," the senior sister said and walked into the courtyard generously, and I said to the little master: "Thank you, little master, please lead the way, let's go and settle the luggage first." ”

"Okay, donor, please come with me." The little monk performed another Buddhist ceremony, but his dress matched these movements, which really made me feel a little awkward.

Buddhism treats people with honesty and treats people with the Dharma, which gives people confidence, hope, and joy. When getting along with the Buddhist family, there is always an indescribable comfort.

After entering the room, the senior sister said, "Senior brother, you won't blame me, right? ”

I smiled, I understand what my senior sister means, what she said is to live here, in fact, my senior sister does not bring it up, I also have this plan, since there are two masters and then retreat, then we must not be disturbed, since this is the case, we will stay here first and wait for the master to come out. Even if I don't have a place to live, I'll pitch a tent outside and wait, and I can't give up halfway after spending so much effort to get here.

I didn't pay too much attention to the fact that I didn't have much longevity, whether it was a blessing or a curse or a curse, and I certainly wouldn't give up on promising things.

At lunchtime, we met everyone here, except for the two masters who were still in retreat. They are very hospitable to guests, and they are very polite in their words and deeds, which can't help but make me and my sister, two people who are used to being wild, a little restrained.

But they don't care about any of our actions, and for them, they can accept all the mundane things of the world.

There were six people in this old house, two masters were in retreat, the young monk who took us was called "Qingzang", and there were two monks of the same age as him and his contemporaries, one was called "Qingla" and the other was "Qingyin".

The master of Qingzang is a Jingzi generation, called "Jingxu". The other two retreat masters are called "Meditation Stirring" and the other is "Meditation Marks".

Jing Ji is the master of laziness, and Jing Ji is the master of seclusion.

These names of theirs make me sound a little surprised, in my concept, the static character generation and the Qing character generation seem to be some very high names. For example, the presiding officer of the Big Buddha Temple is called Jingru, and the Minister of Education of the Buddhist Association is from the Qing generation, called Qingyuan.

I don't know how the Buddhist name is decided, but I always feel that the monks here have some backgrounds, but when they explained it to me, I was relieved.

They believe that everyone is born with the sins of the previous life, and if they do not make good karma and accumulate virtue, this kind of sin will be magnified with the end of this life, so that in the reincarnation of one life is not as good as the other. They came here to cultivate because they wanted to use this life to pay off the sins of their previous lives and seek stability in the next life. Therefore, their Dharma names are all pure and quiet.

Buddhism is profound, I can't get a glimpse of one or two, but I actually don't agree with their statement, people live a lifetime, pure cultivation is just a belief or a habit of life, if the whole life is explained in this hundred feet of land, then where to do good and accumulate virtue? Even if there is virtue, it is only a small virtue.

Even if there is a disagreement in my heart, I will not say it, everyone has their own attitude and belief in life, there is no right or wrong, and there is no better or worse.

During the meal, I talked to Master Jingxu about the purpose of my trip, and he immediately said that his junior disciple of Jingxu had studied a little in Gu arts. This made me very happy, the Buddhists were humble, and what he said with a little research must be a great achievement.

However, he also said that he was in retreat in Bigu, and he was afraid that he would have to wait until three days later to get out. I immediately said it didn't matter, we could wait for the Master of Meditation for three days.

The appearance of this old house does not look like the shape of a Buddhist temple, but the old house is full of Buddhist things, they sacrifice incense to the Buddha every day, knock on the wooden fish at night and chant the scriptures, and there are many lessons in the morning, noon and evening every day. There are also quite a few Buddha statues inside. In fact, there is not much difference from those regular temples.

In addition to the big Buddha hall, there are six side rooms in the old house, each of the three masters lives in one, three small monks live in the same room, and there are two rooms for backup, according to Qing Zang, they will sometimes have some destined gold lords here to come and live for a few days, self-cultivation, abstain from irritability, they will also charge a certain amount of remuneration, used to buy their seasonal clothes, firewood, rice, oil and salt and worship tribute.

In addition to the six wings, there is a bunk, a toilet and a utility room. Toilets and rooms are built separately. And these two rooms and the room where the Buddha hall wing is located, plus the style of the courtyard gate, it is also a bit like the pattern of our previous Taoist temple. However, the area here is much wider than our Taoist temple.

On the first night, Yu Bingqing came out and continued to go inside the umbrella, she said that the smell of Buddhism in this place was too strong, and she was uncomfortable. We didn't care, the soul had a natural discomfort with the temple, just like a person in the water couldn't breathe, so Yu Bingqing could only stay in the umbrella.

During the three days we stayed here, my sister and I did not run around, but meditated and chanted with these masters, and offered sacrifices to the Buddha. It's strange to say, since I came here, I originally had some impetuous mood and slowly became calmer, senior sister too, I feel that I have been in the temple for three days, and the whole person's personality has changed, she used to be very aggressive, and occasionally a little temperamental, but now she is actually knowledgeable, and she speaks softly, and even has a feeling of Yu Bingqing.

On the third day, Master Jing Stir came out, it was a monk who looked very kind, about seventy years old, although he was dressed in plain clothes, although it was not a monk's clothes, but it actually felt like a monk's clothes on him, solemn and serious.

However, his own personality is very approachable, and sometimes he can even make a few jokes, according to his senior brother Master Jingxu, Master Jingxu is a Miao person, and when he was in his forties, he was a famous Gu master, and he used his Gu technique to treat many people.

Master Jing Tu frowned at the first sight of me, and before I could speak, he spoke first: "This benefactor, what kind of identity do you have, and what kind of opponent have you provoked?" How could someone be such a vicious Gu worm? ”
