Chapter 46: Notes on Spiritual Practices (2)
To say that the modern is much more convenient than the ancient, not only the road is flat and there are road signs, the towns and cities along the road are also very dense, the only pain is the need to practice on foot, starting from the island city to here, more than 200 kilometers of the road took ten days to complete, even if the fate of the line is good, such a long journey every day is not light.
Finally arrived in Aconitum Town, wandered around for an afternoon, and found a hotel to stay in at nightfall.
After settling in, I washed and dried my inner and outer clothes, changed into spare T-shirts and shorts, and prepared to meditate, but I couldn't meditate, so I had to give up.
At night, the town of Aconitum is still brightly lit and bustling. The sound insulation of this small hotel is not good, and the noise of the outside world is squeezed in without reservation, and the thoughts in my heart are surging even harder. So he simply took a chair and sat in front of the window, looking at the dark shadow of the mountain not far away.
This kind of practice is better called cloud and water walking, and the atmospheric point is called measuring the world. But he is different, neither for worshipping the mountain, nor for studying, the purpose is only for meditation, so this trip is better to say that it is a cloud travel, there is no clear destination, and it is more casual, I want to turn fate, I want to live in a hotel, and I am not restricted by the rules. When I was in a good mood, I cleared up some evils, and when I was in a bad mood, I also cleared up some evils, and I did a few good things along the way.
was stunned, the phone rang, it was Lao He.
Lao He's first sentence was: "I said fate, did you take that photo of Vice President Di?" ”
"Is he traveling with a beautiful young lady in his arms?" Yuan Xing raised his eyebrows.
"Sure enough, it's you." Lao He's voice was gloating: "Now it's crazy in the micro circle, it is said that there is a fire in the backyard of Lao Di's house, and now it is making trouble." ”
"Amitabha, the photo is taken by a poor monk, and it has nothing to do with us if it spreads." He swore that he just took a landscape photo on a whim, happened to take the two of them, and then happened to pass the photo to an old classmate, who happened to pass it on Weiwei, which really wasn't what he did.
"Really? When you were in school, you were always found fault with him, did you get scrambled again this time? ”
"The poor monk has always had no quarrel with the world after becoming a monk, how can he care about the dirty things in the past? Yesterday, I met Deputy Director Di and took the initiative to say hello. Yuan Xing said with a smile: "He may dislike the poor monk for being a monk and disgrace the courtyard, the nose is not the nose and the eyes are not the eyes, the poor monk abides by the precepts, so he naturally has to endure it and let him insult him." ”
"How dare he scold you? Freedom of Belief He doesn't know? Lao He raised his voice and said angrily: "Now he thinks that you took the photo, and he will say that he wants to deal with you in private." ”
"What can he do? At most, find an excuse to be expelled from school. The poor monks have all become monks, what is the use of studying? "Yuan Xing didn't care.
"Then you can't let him bully, don't worry, if he wants to move, you have to explain the style problem clearly first." Lao He said angrily, and then lowered his voice: "I guess he just said it, and he didn't dare to do anything to you." ”
"A poor monk is a poor monk, what dare he do."
"Officials like Lao Di have always been timid and fearful, and they have no courage and responsibility." Lao He's tone was full of sarcasm: "What reason does he have? At most, you are a student studying science and engineering, but you give up your studies and become a monk, which will affect the reputation of the college. At that time, I quietly handed over a sentence, saying that you are a member of the religious circles, and expelling you will affect the unity of the sect and religion. ”
"......" was speechless.
The two chatted a few more words and ended the call. Yuan Xing was just about to put away his mobile phone, but the ringtone rang again, it was a call from Xiang Ling.
"Sanzang, this month's subsidy has been distributed, it has been transferred to your card, pay attention to check." The little girl had a businesslike tone.
Yuan Xing said lightly, if you want to say that there are still a lot of benefits to help the Governor's Mansion, even if he is a peripheral person who listens to the tune and does not listen to the announcement, there is a lot of subsidy every month. This money greatly relieved the pressure on his life, at least those Chinese medicinal materials have money to buy, you can order some good quality cat food for Xiaodouzi to eat, and the rest can be donated to do good deeds, which is really beautiful.
"The heatstroke prevention subsidy has also been issued, but Sister Xia deducted 1,000 yuan from you......" Xiang Ling's voice became smaller and smaller, but he seemed a little weak.
"Oh!" Yuan Xing replied casually, not caring at all.
Who knew that his reaction was flat, but the other side stopped doing it, and Xia Xiaonan's voice came out of the microphone.
"What are you, the day before yesterday, someone broke into a farmhouse, knocked out the man who suddenly became mentally ill, and damaged a door bolt. Yesterday morning, someone was beaten on the street by a monk in a gray robe for no reason, and he lost two ...... of his front teeth."
"Don't say it, it's all made by poor monks." Yuan Xing hurriedly forgave and explained: "The day before yesterday, the man was caught by a ghost, and the poor monk said that people didn't believe it, and the situation was urgent at that time, so he could only forcibly break in, otherwise he would die." Yesterday he really didn't stop his hand, and he used too much force. The poor monk has paid the medical bills and apologized! ”
"People think that the little money you gave is too little, and then call the police, and the police station in the field finally found the island city here, and I talked directly to the toothless one, and this matter is settled." Xia Xiaonan snorted, as for how to communicate with people, she didn't mention it, and after a pause, she continued: "In order to settle these two things for you, how much beauty sleep does the old lady sleep, and it's not too much to deduct some money from you to buy cosmetics, right?" ”
"It's not too much, it's up to you." Yuan Xing wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, not to mention that distance produces beauty, what an intellectual and gentle person Officer Xiaoxia was when he first came into contact?
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and Xia Xiaonan's voice became much lower: "I actually injured someone, isn't this like your style of doing things, in a bad mood?" "It has to be a woman's sixth sense, it's too accurate.
"No, it's just that there are too many things that should be thought about and not in my head along the way." Yuan Xing laughed in response.
"Then take care of yourself." The other party left this sentence and hung up the phone.
Yuan Xing sighed, and turned his gaze back to the mountain, his eyes drifting, he had been a monk in the mountain more than six hundred years ago. And now, the man is still the same, and the temple where he lived for sixteen years has been reduced to ruins early......
