Chapter 166
The mountain is high and windy and cold, and as soon as autumn begins, the cleaning work is frequent, mainly to deal with the dead leaves that come down from the sky to visit the temple.
"Master was scolded by Master Ancestor again today?"
"I heard that it's because Uncle Yuanxing did something wrong at the foot of the mountain, and Master was implicated......"
Two young monks passed by outside the courtyard, and their conversation was very low, but it happened to reach the ears of Yuanxing, who was sweeping the floor, and he was slightly stunned, wrong? Under the mountain? He thought about it, after he went down the mountain, he didn't stay in this world for a long time, and he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, probably a rumor.
Thinking of this, he shook his head and decided to ignore it and continue his cleaning work.
"The ancestor is angry again, it seems that it is still for the sake of Uncle Yuanxing."
"This, isn't Uncle Shi being punished? Why is he so angry? ”
"I don't know, alas, looking at Master's depressed appearance, it seems that things are not small."
Yuanxing, who was fetching water, heard it, and was a little worried in his heart, could it be that the enemy released rumors to deal with him? Come to think of it, there are no enemies, huh?
"It's been three days, and the ancestor's anger hasn't disappeared yet?"
"Who said no, it is said that Uncle Yuanxing offended the big man at the foot of the mountain, and now the other party has gained power and is ready to take revenge on this temple."
"Even when the master went to intercede, he was punished for copying scriptures for three days."
"Hey......"
As the sound of conversation faded away, Yuanxing's movements of washing the futon became slower and slower, and finally stopped, big man? A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, could it be Jin Yuanzheng? But how did the poor monk offend him? I am tired of running around and working hard, and I am the one who suffers from it, how can I offend?
Oh! Slapping his forehead, was it because he was shaving the little girl's head, or because he almost ruined his plan? But it's been nearly five years, and this old man is too vindictive.
No, he stood up, dried his hands on his clothes, and was about to go to the master to explain.
"Yuanxing, what are you going to do?" Shanguo was beaten with a stick, and he said scolding words in his mouth, but his face showed anxiety and he smacked him wildly.
Yuan Xing suddenly calmed down, and he was being punished.
"Good fruit ......," he said for the first time in two months: "Can you be accommodating and let me go and meet the old monk?" ”
Shanguo looked left and right, and then said loudly: "Yuanxing opened his mouth without authorization, and the punishment was increased by one day." After that, he took two steps closer and whispered, "I'll ask tonight." ”
On the second day, Yuan Xing left the firewood house early and stayed where he was and waited quietly.
Shanguo came later than usual, and when Yuanxing saw his ugly face from afar, he couldn't help but sink in his heart and stood up suddenly.
"Shizu said that he didn't want to see Uncle Shi recently." Shanguo Tie said these words with a blushing face, hesitated, and handed the burden in his hand to Yuan Xing.
The latter frowned, weighing the weight of the burden in his hand, and felt even more bad in his heart, so he hurriedly opened it.
Shanguo coughed dryly, don't look around, and whispered: "The old man said that Uncle Shi's behavior is bad, and he can only go to see him after the penalty period, and this thing must either be put on by himself or punished for one month." ”
With a "bang", Yuan Xing only felt that his hands and feet were cold, the burden fell out of his hands, and a pair of steel shackles smashed to the ground......
----------------
Today's work is to continue to sweep the fallen leaves, in the sound of the tumult, the broken dead leaves are blown by the wind, chasing each other on the ground in front of and behind Yuanxing, accompanied by the cold, showing a group of sadness and sorrow, and his mood, like this fallen leaves, is controlled by a certain emotion, between the ups and downs, so not desolate.
At this time, the thoughts of fate are filled with remorse, humiliation, and resentment.
The master would rather believe those unfounded rumors than listen to his own disciple's explanations.
He thought that there was nothing wrong with him during this time, and he still couldn't satisfy his master, and he was obviously restricted from his freedom, and he even had to be shackled, which was not only a punishment, but a humiliation.
Originally, according to his thoughts, he would rather be punished for a month than wear this thing, but he still chose to lock himself up, because he wanted to find out what happened to the master as soon as possible to treat him like this.
Shanguo followed behind Yuan Xing with a stick, sighing secretly, he could clearly feel the emotions of the person in front of him, and he was also puzzled in his heart, and said silently: "Master, what is your old man doing this for?" ”
At the same time, in the abbot's meditation room, the old monk Fuguang leisurely picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "The fire is almost over, the next step must be early, otherwise he will react." ”
"I'm afraid that if you push too hard, it will backfire." The abbot shook his head: "It's a shame that you came up with such a bad idea." ”
Fuguang didn't answer this question, but faced the fate of the law standing on the side, and asked, "Why didn't you see Shanshou and Shanran in today's morning class?" ”
"Although they were instructed by you, after all, they broke the precepts and spoke the precepts, and the disciples punished them to meditate behind closed doors for three days and fast for one day." Yuan Fa drooped his eyelids and replied lightly.
Fu Guang looked at him thoughtfully for a long time before he smiled and said, "You are dissatisfied with what you have done for your teacher." Do you think I've done it too? ”
"The disciple doesn't dare." After thinking about it, he said honestly: "It's just that Master, you are really in a hurry. ”
Fu Guang let out a long sigh: "I know that you feel sorry for your junior brother, but he didn't do badly, if you don't take advantage of it now, how can you have a chance to get his mistakes?" Without some small means, how can he break the cage? Let the old man do it. ”
"Master, he ...... Yuanfa" Yuanfa still wanted to persuade a few words, but he stopped suddenly, and the three people in the room all looked in the direction of the door.
The next moment, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of Xiao Shami Shanming came from outside: "Abbot, there are people worshipping the mountain outside." ”
"This temple doesn't accept outsiders after autumn, didn't you say?" Yuanfa frowned and blamed.
"...... said" Shanming's voice hesitated: "But there are a lot of people coming, it seems to be an official person, he said that his surname is Bai." ”
"White?" The abbot also tightened his eyebrows and looked at the other two: "Could it be him?" ”
-------------------
Yuanxing, who was cleaning the fallen leaves, ran from Shanming in a hurry, and glanced in the direction of the temple, because it was far away, and he could only vaguely see a lot of people standing outside the door.
However, he was too lazy to care, and he was not in the mood to look at it with his discerning eyes, so he slowly walked to the side courtyard and continued to clean up.
Naturally, someone will do it when receiving guests, and he, a "sinner", should not be in the way.
Shanguo was very curious, knowing that there were almost no outsiders coming to Tianchan Temple, and there were so many people coming to the door today, and I don't know what happened.
Just as he was hesitating to take a look, he saw the abbot and other monks walking out of the backyard from a distance, apparently to welcome the guests.
He glanced at Yuanxing, who was depressed, thought about it, stood the stick in his hand in the corner of the wall, ran to the side of Master Yuanfa in a few steps, and followed closely.
Soon, the abbot led them to the gate of the monastery, but did not meet them, but stood solemnly.
Then, the outsiders were led into the monastery by the novice......
