Chapter 104: The Messenger

led Huixian to eat and fast, and then went to the abbot's room. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

There are many people in the temple now, and although there are deacons in charge on weekdays, there is no need for me to do those small chores, but the deacons always have some things to ask for instructions and reports.

I haven't taken care of the affairs of the temple for many days, and I don't know how many things have backlogged, so it's time to deal with them.

As soon as I sat down in the abbot's room, the deacons came and sat on either side.

In Shenlong Temple, there were no first and other positions under me, and only eight deacons were established.

In this way, each of them has their own share and their own responsibilities, which can not only help me do things, but also facilitate management, and can effectively prevent someone from overstepping me because of excessive power and taking advantage of the opportunity for me to go out to make money for the temple.

I don't care if you pull me down from the throne, what I care about is that if someone enters the Scripture Pavilion and discovers the secrets inside, it's not good.

I sat upright, sipping tea, and listening to the deacons' reports.

It's basically a clichΓ© and doesn't matter. Just as they were about to tell everyone to retreat, a novice came in from outside to report that someone had come down from the mountain.

I invited someone in, and when I saw it, it was a young student in his twenties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and I didn't recognize him. After asking, I found out that the village had elected a new patriarch, and tomorrow would be the day when the new patriarch took office.

I opened the invitation card, looked at it, and found that it only stated that the new patriarch would be inaugurated in the council pavilion tomorrow, and I was invited to attend the ceremony, but not the name of the new patriarch.

I didn't expect that the efficiency of this clan was really high, and a new patriarch was elected so quickly. It's just that the person who wrote the post was too careless, and he didn't even write the name of the new patriarch, and I don't know if it was something I knew well.

I casually put the invitation card on the table next to me and asked, "Do you know who the new patriarch is?"

The latter shook his head and said, "I really don't know about this, I'm just in charge of delivering the letter." I heard that the new patriarch will not be announced until he gets it. ”

Oh, that's weird, it's weird.

"Well, I see, go back and tell the elders that I will definitely be on time tomorrow."

"Okay."

"Then I'll go back to my life first."

"Okay."

The next generation will give a deep salute and will retire.

I saw that the latter was dressed thinly, dressed in coarse cloth, and his face was full of vegetables, thinking that he would not be too rich in the family, so my heart moved, and I called him, "Please stay." ”

Hou Sheng looked at me with some confusion, "Do you have anything else to explain?"

I didn't hurry and said: "The donor has come all the way, he must be tired, so take a rest for the time being, and it's not too late to leave after eating." ”

As he spoke, he ordered the young man to go down and arrange for the young man to rest first, and then leave after eating the fast at noon.

Then the latter was a little embarrassed, saying that he could cause trouble to the temple by running errands.

I smiled indifferently, "Don't be polite, the mountains here are high and the roads are far away, you come here, I don't think I have time to eat breakfast, where can I go?" Besides, there are guests from afar, and it's time to eat, and if you don't eat, you will leave, this is not the hospitality of Shenlong Temple. ”

The latter was a little embarrassed, and said: "There is still a lot of work to be done in the village, and I am afraid that I will be punished if I go back late."

When I heard this, I couldn't let him go, and said with relief: "It's okay, Shenlong Temple has a deep relationship with the village, if anyone blames you, you just need to say that I forced you to keep you, and they will definitely not treat you like this."

When the latter heard this, he relaxed his expression and retreated with great gratitude.

In my impression, the people in the village are simple, rich, and kind to people, and they are all respectful and harmonious everywhere, like a paradise.

However, from Zhang Ling'er to today's later life, my view of the village has been slightly subverted.

Perhaps, what I have seen all this time is only the surface, there are still some corners of this ancient village that I have never seen, some things that I don't know?

During the meal, I paid special attention to it and found that Hye-hyun was familiar with him, and the off-the-beaten-life saw Hye-hyun's eyes lit up obviously, but because everyone was silent, no one dared to say hello, just nodded to each other.

The young man seemed to have eaten a full meal for a long time, and he actually ate five white flour buns in one meal, which made me worry that he would burst his stomach.

I thought about it for a while, and whispered to the prison to ask someone to find a winter coat in the storeroom and give it to him.

This young man sparked a strong curiosity in me, and I wanted to peek through him into the dark and unknown corners of the village.

I decided to take Hye-hyun down the mountain with me.

In order to catch the auspicious time, I asked him to tell him to leave as soon as the day dawned.

Hye-hyun was very punctual, and when I arrived at the mountain gate, the little guy was already waiting there. It may be a little cold, but the little guy is pacing in place with his hands and feet.

I smiled and called out "Hye-hyun". As soon as he turned his head and saw me, he jumped up and down to meet me.

I took his little hand, it was cold, and I put my arms around him and asked, "Is it cold?" Have you waited a long time?"

"It didn't take long. I couldn't figure out when it would be dawn, so I got up early for fear of getting up late and misleading you. But I didn't leave the house, and I waited here until it was going to be light, so I didn't get much older than you. ”

What an obedient child, much better behaved than when I was a child.

I scratched his little nose and said, "Let's go, let's go." ”

"Master, your hands are so hot, like a small stove. I didn't see you dressed more than others, so why don't you seem to be afraid of the cold?"

"As long as you don't think it's cold in your heart, you won't feel cold."

"Really?"

Hyehyun tilted her head in disbelief and stared at me with wide eyes.

"Of course."

"Then I'll try it too."

Hyehyun closed her eyes and whispered, "I'm not cold, I'm not cold." After reading for a while, he opened his eyes and said in disappointment, "It's not good, Master."

"It's not that it's bad, it's because your heart is not quiet."

"Master, I don't understand, how can I be calm?"

"Don't rush, take your time. In the future, you have to try to empty yourself every day, and when you can reach the state of selflessness, you will become. ”

"Ah, I see, Master, then I can become an immortal, right?"

I smiled and said indifferently, "Maybe."

"I ask you something, do you recognize the messenger who came from the village yesterday?"

"Yes."

"Is he an orphan like you?"

"No, but it's pretty much the same. Because he doesn't have a father, just an old, ugly, crazy mother. ”

"Oh? Then it's not easy for him, don't you help such people in your village?"

"I live my life by myself, and others can only help for a while, and I can't help every day!"

Oh, I didn't expect this kid to have this realization.

I only heard him continue: "What's more, he is not from this village."
