As soon as I heard the monk's words, I wondered, so I explained to the two monks: "Although I am an atheist, I am not against the Buddha. ”

The two monks didn't answer, but just stood in front of me with their hands folded.

As soon as the fat brother saw the fire, he grabbed a monk's collar and asked, "Why are you still driving people out of this temple?" A group of fake monks are looking for a beating, right? ”

I said in my heart that this monk scolded him, if you call the police, you can't detain him, so hurry up and stop him. Then he said to the two monks, "Sue your king to preside, and I will wait for him at the gate of the temple." I was entrusted to find someone. "I put the word king very seriously, and I want the host to understand that I know more or less about his origin, and maybe I can be accommodating.

Then, the four of us walked out of the temple under the strange eyes of everyone, and found a step that no one had passed through to sit and wait for the host.

Sister Hua was the most impatient, walking around the door of the temple and complaining, "What is this? If they can be driven out of the temple, aren't they all sentient beings? If I am in a hurry, I will go in and put them all down, and the bald donkey of this whole temple is not my opponent when it comes. ”

Lu Shan looked at the pedestrians on the road there, probably thinking about why she was invited out.

And the fat brother circled around me as soon as he came out, chanting as he turned: "Is there anything wrong with you?" Is there something wrong with the clothes you wear today? Or maybe you eat too much meat at noon and make people smell it? ”

I closed my eyes and recuperated because I clearly felt that it was me who were driven away by the monks, and that there was something wrong with my eyes, and the monks might see it, and maybe my eyes were in conflict with the Dharma. Anyway, they're all here, if you don't let me in today, I'll go back, let the three of them come tomorrow, and finish Boss Zhou's business. In the future, I will find a way to visit again, maybe I can figure out the origin of my eyes, and if I am lucky, I can find some clues to find out my background.

Time passed little by little, and sitting in the shade of the tree outside the temple gate, I was refreshed and comfortable. The ancient temple under the afterglow is shining with red-gold light, so that there is a little bit of Buddhism shining on me, but this Buddhism does not shine on me, and I am a little disappointed. Maybe it was late, there were only pilgrims going down the mountain, and there were no pilgrims going up the mountain, so I stood up and signaled to the three people around me who had nothing to say and were only in a daze, and it was time to go back to dinner.

As soon as we were about to go down the mountain, the two monks who invited us out walked out side by side, walked up to us and did not bow, but put their hands together and said, "The host is invited." ”

According to my meaning, if you drive us out and invite us back, why should you control it and go down the mountain and ignore them?

But I found that the fat brother and them had no intention of leaving, and they wanted to go in to find them to preside over the theory, so I had to lead the three of them and follow the two monks towards the temple.

The pilgrims in the temple have almost gone, and there are a few older women, lying on the futon in front of the Buddha, really very pious, and the five bodies are thrown to the ground.

An old monk stood in the hall waiting for us, this should be the host, said that he was a few years older than Liu Laohan I didn't see it, there are not many wrinkles on the face, the body is very tough at a glance, standing there straight like a tree, it can be seen that many years in the temple to eat fasting and chanting Buddha meditation, it is very beneficial to the body.

The young monk gave the order to expel the guests, and walked out of the main hall with the pilgrims who were reluctant to leave. There were only four of us and the old monk left in the main hall.

I stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Are you the king?" ”

The old monk looked at me expressionlessly and said, "The poor monk is called Deshun, and he is the host here." ”

Sister Hua and Fat Brother have long been unable to live in peace, Sister Hua is standing on the side of Monk Deshun, and Fat Brother is standing in front of Monk Deshun, forming a kind of encirclement and oppression, as if he is about to do it at any time.

The fat guy asked, "Why did you kick us out just now?" ”

Monk Deshun still looked at me expressionlessly and said, "If you don't practice Buddhism, how can you come here?" Time flies, and the old man just doesn't want the donors to waste their time. ”

What I understand is that you don't believe in Buddhism to come to the temple to do something, and if you have this time to do something else, you are rushing to run here and play, and you are idle.

The fat brother also heard what he meant, so he was angry and shouted: "Your temple door is wide open, do you still pick people?" I see that there is no pond in your Wangtan Temple, and the monk is also a fake monk. It's just a group of people who make a temple and cheat money. ”

The old monk didn't speak, but nodded in my direction, turned around and walked back, and we followed him closely to see if he had anything else to say.

Bypassing the corridor, we came to the backyard of the temple, where some young monks came and went, and when they saw the old monk, they did not speak, but just put one palm on their chest, bent down slightly to say hello, and then walked away.

In the center of the backyard, there is a huge gray-white stone beast, the body is like a lion, the tail is a raised wolf tail that looks like a feather duster, the limbs are dragon claws, there are long hairs between the claws, the head is a dragon head without horns, two triangular ears are slightly drooping, the front of the head is a finished glyph, staring at three big eyes, the middle eye has been broken and sunken, surrounded by some cracks. The bloody mouth is wide open, and the roof of the mouth has two long fangs, which, if closed, can extend long below the lower jaw.

The broken eyes do not affect the majesty and ferocity of this giant beast, and the whole beast body is more than enough for the four of us to sit on, and it is in the posture of a tiger descending the mountain, which makes people afraid of three points from the bottom of their hearts when they see it. There is no dust in the scales around the body, and it seems that the monks in this temple carefully wipe it every day.

I asked curiously, "Host, I've heard that dragons give birth to nine sons, but this rui beast doesn't know what it's called." ”

The old monk replied to me: "The dragon gave birth to nine sons, which means that there are many descendants of the dragon, not that there are only nine sons. ”

As soon as I heard it, I understood, this is the same as Li Bai's poem "It is suspected that the Milky Way falls for nine days", nine days is a very high sky, not a time unit.

The old monk pointed to the stone beast and said, "It was born from a dragon and an overseas beast, and its name is Evil Eye." ”

As soon as I heard it, this stone beast was still a hybrid, an overseas beast, a dragon, and a habit of playing with foreign girls.

I asked, "Then what is the purpose of you showing us this stone beast, or you have carved such a stone beast in the courtyard?" "It seems that the way of speaking is also contagious, and I am almost like the old monk's crepe tone.

The old monk took two more steps forward, and we followed around the giant beast, and found that the stone beast had an arched body, surrounded by an octagonal ancient well, the mouth of the well was about two meters in diameter, and the well had dried up and there was no water.

The old monk pointed to the well and said, "This is the pool in the temple." ”

I suddenly realized, it turns out that Wangtan Temple does have a pool, that is, a stone beast looking at a well, to put it bluntly, it is a stone beast Wangjing Temple. I thought to myself that the treasure that shines in the temple should be this well, and if I can go down and have a look, maybe there will be some new discoveries.

I remembered Boss Zhou's incident again, so I asked the old monk again: "A friend surnamed Zhou asked me to come here to find a senior monk, saying that he had enlightened him when he came here fifteen years ago. His wife is lost here. ”

When the old monk heard what I said, he was stunned for a moment, his attitude seemed to turn one hundred and eighty degrees, and he said to me with a smile: "I did have a relationship with Lord Zhou back then, and the specific situation ...... Why don't you stay in the temple tonight, and I'll talk to the little donor. ”

The fat brother was just about to open his mouth, as if to say that we live under the mountain and come back tomorrow, I hurriedly glared at him, choked the fat brother and coughed a few times, and then I looked at the well again.

Sister Hua immediately understood what I meant, and took the fat brother's hand and shook it. It seems that Sister Hua is the one who understands me best, and I want to take the opportunity to stay in Wangtan Temple and let them explore the treasure well at night.
