Chapter 413: Waiting

It is said that he has been persuading the old monk to accept him as a disciple, but the old monk thinks that he did not believe in Buddhism and entered the temple, but entered the temple to escape life, and did not let go of the world, unless he went to face the world and then came back, he could not do it, so he has not been approved. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info The female layman came 25 days ago and stayed in the back mountain. Although the mountain is not high, it has a large area, and only 30% of the temple buildings are built, and 70% are wooded paths, and there are some side houses scattered around, which are provided for the living places of female believers. It is said that thousands of years ago, women were not allowed to enter the temple, but then they went to court, and the judge ruled that sex discrimination, but the rules of the religion were respected. And then ...... Later, if you have money, you can do it. Buddhism also slowly developed into a place of prayer for the wealthy, and eventually declined. Now there are very few temples scattered on the Eternal Planet, and there are very few believers.

This has to do with the Eternal Alliance, which, shortly after its formation, established a law that no religion should proselytize in a way that promised benefits. For example, I ask a god to make me rich. That would be in conflict with the Alliance's order. After the development of Buddhism, in a way, it exists for personal interests, and many people burn incense and worship Buddha in the hope that their children will be promoted to high school and become rich. Assuming that God has a spirit and your child is really on the gold list, how should the sentence "equality" be explained for the one who was squeezed out? Then Buddhism was completely suppressed by the Allied Powers, and the city of Noldor and Chuxiao first made all registered monks have to declare their assets, and once the property exceeded the number, they would be banned from being monks. In that materialistic era, monk was a high-income profession, and no one did it if he didn't make money, so many temples and Buddhist colleges were closed.

Hundreds of years later, the temples that still exist on the eternal planet are very pure Buddhism that does not seek material desires.

……

Cui Ming has already moved in, living in the wing next door to the male layman, the wing room is not big, but it is very clean. Cui Ming was bored in the afternoon, so he asked a monk about Buddhism and learned about the history of Buddhism's development and decline on the eternal planet for thousands of years. It's okay, dust to dust, dust to dust, back to the original trajectory. At least at that time, Buddhism was not for the purpose of accumulating wealth, and the three Tibetan Mahayana scriptures were taken for the purpose of crossing people, and the development of the later crossing of oneself has deviated from the original definition.

Cui Ming has lived a long life of seclusion and is adaptable to quiet and boring. But the rules of vegetarianism and so on, I really can't stand it. However, in two days, Cui Ming felt that there was no oil and water in his stomach. I asked a monk to inquire, and the monk told Cui Ming that there was a small village on the border of the lake about thirteen kilometers to the west, with more than 20 households and a population of 100 people.

There must be food in the village, this is a must, Cui Ming has money, although he has never made money......

But Cui Ming didn't dare to go, he really didn't dare, because it was very routine. I couldn't stand living in the temple for a few days, and when I inquired, the nearest village was thirteen kilometers away, and the farther one was a small town eighty kilometers away. Of course, I chose to go to a small village, and I was close to the lake, and the fish couldn't run away.

Just because it was too routine, Cui Ming didn't dare to go, for fear that the crow would calculate this. Although Cui Ming felt that the crow did not think that he would go, it was possible that the crow thought that he thought that the crow thought that he would not go. Endless loop? So don't want this, you can't even convince yourself, so it's better to keep your mouth shut.

There is also good news, three days have passed, and the crow has not yet shown its face, and there is no sign of showing up, which means that the crow wants to move on its own.

Cui Ming walked around the back mountain and saw the female layman's room, according to the rules, he couldn't be disturbed. So I took the trail to the back hill location. Why? Looking for a ...... to eat

No, I took the risk to find the crow, and if the crow didn't have a chance, it would definitely not show up.

Thinking of this, Cui Ming decided to abide by the rules, and on the morning of the fourth day, he walked to the border village.

The border village is beautiful, with grassland natural pastures on one side and lakes on the other, concrete roads and neat camellias planted on the roadside. Cui Ming walked closer to the village and was amazed, he didn't expect there to be such a beautiful place here.

However, this village is not easy to enter, there are regular troops standing guard at the entrance of the village, Cui Ming went up, showed his documents and asked. It turned out that about twenty or so border guards were stationed nearby. The reason is that the border town is only ten kilometers away from a tribe in the Wild Lands. In the past, tribesmen often stole and attacked the villagers, and all the Dawning Empire sent soldiers. After the soldiers arrived, they were threatened with weapons, and it was quiet for most of the year.

The villagers live very scattered, and the center of the village is six families living together, and they live very comfortably, because according to the regulations of the Dawning Empire, border residents can get a lot of subsidies every month, and there is only one grocery store in the village, which is the place for the whole village to buy things. It's very miscellaneous, and it deserves the name of the grocery store.

Cui Ming was very good, but in just half an hour, he pulled up with a family, had lunch together, and bought a batch of dried fish and bacon by the way. It was quiet and nothing happened. Cui Ming tried to stay in this house for one night, but there was still no movement.

Early the next morning, Cui Ming took the soldier's car and returned to the temple.

When he came back, Cui Ming regretted it, because the monk told Cui Ming that when he was away yesterday, a woman and three men stayed in the temple. Earlier, there was a woman and a man, they came very early, Cui Ming thought it was unplanned, and it was difficult to say that one woman and three men came this time, and what was even more strange was that they all came alone.

The temple has a rule that lay people are not allowed to be disturbed when they are in the room, and lay people can appear in the dining hall during meal times or not. So now, Cui Ming has only seen the visitor in the wing next to him, the young male monk who is a sincere monk.

Cui Ming walked to his wing, it was even more strange, the temple had more than 20 wings, and the three new male laymen actually lived with him, right next door to him.

Cui Mingxuan is particular about this side room, this side is a large courtyard, a row of side rooms in the east, and a row of side rooms in the west. Cui Ming lived in the east, and the conditions in the east were worse than those in the west, and the monk also persuaded Cui Ming to live in the west wing. Cui Ming refused. The east wing houses are more dilapidated and mostly yellow clay floors. The west wing is a stone floor, which is much newer.

It is also possible that the three laymen lived like this because they saw that everyone lived like this...... It's completely self-inflicted. At present, he is in the state of a frightened bird.

In Cui Ming's life card, he only saw someone in the wing, and there was no force fluctuation, so he seemed to be relieved.

Suspicious people live a more painful life, that night, Cui Ming did not dare to sleep, he was afraid of a sudden attack by the enemy, he could only fall asleep in a meditative state, and when he got up the next day, his spirit was very poor, and falling asleep in meditation was similar to fake sleep, and he could not enter deep sleep.

Early in the morning, Cui Ming washed in the courtyard, and then went to the lobby to eat, the monks were already seated, Cui Ming sat down, picked up steamed buns and porridge, and mixed pickles...... Damn, this pickle tastes really good today. And fritters...... Oh, vegetable oil.

Cui Ming's neighbors also appeared, three men ranging from thirty to fifty, arrived one after another, everyone sat down to eat, no one spoke, just ate quietly, after eating, the lay people can not wash the dishes, just put them on the table. Cui Ming was the last to finish eating, and the three of them didn't make eye contact at all, they looked strangers to each other, and they went back to their rooms one after another, and one of them washed the dishes and chopsticks by himself.

Cui Ming felt suspicious, judging from the surface, these three people should not know each other. One was working outdoors in a hot area, and if you guessed correctly, it should be a photographer, probably waiting for someone, or preparing to go into the rainforest to take pictures. One is a writer, who writes in the silence of this place. There is also an obvious psychological problem, and he guessed that he couldn't stand the temptation of suicide, so he came to the temple to hide from the demons, hoping to solve his own problems.

No problem, these three are totally fine.

The next day, the photographer left, leaving behind the incense money, which is stipulated by law that the amount of incense money paid to the temple each month must not exceed 1% of the per capita monthly income. It's not your personal income, it's the average income of the city-state's total population. It's not a lot of money, it's just a meaning.

In the afternoon of the next day, the suicide man was discovered by a monk, who used a telegraph machine to contact the outside, and on the morning of the third day, two police officers took the suicide man away. The writer was intrigued, saying that he was going to include the stories of the suicides in his book.

Another day passed, and the writer was persuaded to leave, because while he was looking for inspiration in the wilderness, he knocked on the door of a laywoman and broke the rules. The writer also left, and the woman who came first left on the same day, and only Cui Ming and the new woman were left in the temple.

Late at night, Cui Ming entered the wing room where the writer next door to him used to live, the wing room had been cleaned up and tidied up, and the bedding had also been taken to wash. Cui Ming watched slowly and examined carefully. Then he entered the room of the suicidal and finally went to the photographer's room.

The next day, Cui Ming left and went to the village.

When Cui Ming came back on the third day, sure enough, there were two more male laymen in the temple, the difference was that they lived in the West Wing.

Hehe, crow, your trick is not beautiful, Cui Ming already knew before the inspection that the three guests were extras and were hired to move in. acted well, at least I believed in their identity. Why?

Because......

How to say it, if Cui Ming's attention is focused on the tenant, then the killer move may sneak behind him. If Cui Ming doesn't care about the tenant, then the tenant may kill someone. Since the crow took the initiative to take a step, he had to go further.

Cui Ming intercepted one of the second group of departing tenants, and sure enough, someone hired him to stay here for a few days, and the script was written. Cui Ming asked him to tell his employer that the ten-day deadline was. The tenant didn't understand what ten days meant, and Cui Ming told him that the employer would understand. Cui Ming didn't plan to follow the tenant to find an employer, and the crow wouldn't be so stupid.

Anti-guest-oriented, Cui Ming made a move.

Cui Ming no longer goes to the village, because he doesn't want to destroy the beauty there, and he doesn't even want to live in the temple, not because he can't bear the hardship, but because he can't bear to destroy the tranquility here. But here is the decisive point, and there is no other option for yourself.

Day 1, Day 2, Day 3...... As the days passed, Cui Ming would go to the back mountain every day to play tooth sacrifices, and most of the time he spent reading Buddhist scriptures in the wing. I often go to help the monks carry water, more than 200 steps to carry water, and the test is still quite big for ordinary people.

There are people moving in every day, people leaving every day, that's right, the vast majority of people are actors, Cui Ming knows that the crow can maintain this high-pressure situation and make himself nervous. But I can't help but be nervous and vigilant, because once I relax, it's time for the crow to strike.

It is already the tenth day, and Cui Ming and the monk said that they would leave early tomorrow morning, and it was very rude to break the rule of not speaking at breakfast. Fortunately, the monk was also reasonable, nodding his head and bowing to the Buddha, indicating that he knew. Cui Ming hoped that the actors who had breakfast together could bring their words out.

These ten days have not been easy, Cui Ming's nerves have always been tense, Cui Ming is in such a state of high alert for such a long time, and he is quite tired mentally. It can be said that the crow has succeeded at least in this step.

……

At noon on the tenth day, after Cui Ming's lunch, he routinely went to the tooth sacrifice, caught a pheasant, found a cave in the back mountain, and roasted it. At three o'clock in the afternoon, I returned to my room very satisfied, picked up the Buddhist scriptures on the table, sat on the chair and read them. At four o'clock, Cui Ming went to the toilet, there was no one else, the monks were chanting or copying scriptures in the chanting room, and the laymen were all in their own rooms, and they didn't see anyone.

Cui Ming's life card is continuously opened, the role of the true force is reflected, and there is no time limit for the life card, just watch it if you want to.

According to Cui Ming's understanding of the crow, even if he includes the possibility of joining forces with the warden, he thinks that he is always in danger. Unless the toad, the warden and the raven join forces. But this may not appear anymore, because Li Qing went to do something, and by the way, he did the toad, and the toad would not appear here.

Without toads, then who can trap themselves and kill themselves? The only answer is the poodle. But it is not smart to choose a temple crow. If you choose a market or a shopping mall, Cui Ming really doesn't dare to go there, because there are people everywhere, fluctuations everywhere, and you can't tell the difference. And there are only so many people here, and the branch is clear. Whoever moves Cui Ming knows.

It was getting dark, Cui Ming didn't leave the room, lit candles, and lay on the bed to pretend to sleep. Now the sleep quality of meditating and sleeping every day is too poor, and Cui Ming can only rely on time to make up for it.

As time passed, Cui Ming became more and more calm, not thinking that the crow would not come, but feeling the excitement before the decisive battle, he was a little irritable when he was bored, and the more nervous he was, the calmer Cui Ming became, and he didn't even have to hypnotize himself.

Cui Ming knew that the crow would definitely come, even if he was not sure of killing himself, the crow would come. Because if he comes, the crow must come. This logic sounds strange, but that's it, maybe it's the own rules of people like Cui Ming and Crow.

At eleven fifty o'clock, Cui Ming opened his eyes, and the force fluctuated on the life card, it was a crow, and the crow was coming. (To be continued.) )
