Hearing Zhu Chuyu's interruption, Aguz was relieved and completely relieved, he was really a little embarrassed just now, the situation on his side was seen by the two friends, maybe the other party would have some strange ideas.

In fact, when normal people see a temple surrounded by a spring tower, they will subconsciously think that this is a flower monk temple.

But this is also no way, in the first period, there were indeed many monks who couldn't hold on, and they chose whether to return to the vulgar or change the temple to take it.

This can't be blamed on them, after all, in the mortal dust, there are a few people who can be transcended, and they are just struggling in the mortal dust.

Those monks were able to hold on for a while, which was already considered a good concentration.

However, as you can imagine, the temple gradually fell into loneliness, and today, there are not even many monks among them.

"Come in quickly, you two, there's nothing to entertain, please forgive me!" Aguz was genuinely sorry.

Taking advantage of this time, Qin Zi and Zhu Chuyu quickly took a look at this Tongji Hall.

The appearance of Aguz, they had seen it before, was definitely not a monk.

Moreover, it has also become the so-called "Tongji Hall", which does not seem to look like a monk's temple.

This makes people a little puzzled, why did Aguz, who was born as a merchant, stay in such a lonely temple?

At this time, Qin Zi and Zhu Chuyu suddenly heard a voice from the courtyard.

"Brother Aguz, who's coming?"

Qin Zi and the two glanced at each other, this was the voice of a child.

Qin Zi instantly had a conjecture in his heart, it seemed that this trip was the right one.

Aguz smiled apologetically at Qin Zi and the others, and then beckoned to the courtyard:

"It's my brother's two good friends!"

He then led the two men into the courtyard of the lonely temple.

Surprisingly, this place does not seem to be shabby, and even although it is a little old, it is dotted with a good appearance, and there is no sense of the lonely temple at all.

The two entered the courtyard and found that there were four young children in this small courtyard.

These children are all boys, and they look dirty, but there is a sparkle in their eyes, and they do not have the numbness that has been due to the hard life for a long time.

It seems that life here may not be too luxurious, but it should be good.

Aguz did not forget to enthusiastically introduce Qin Zi and the others:

"Zhu Gongzi, Qin Gongzi, these are all orphans adopted by our side, and there is another one in the house, and they can't go to the ground yet."

Zhu Chuyu smiled instantly, squatted down and looked at those little boys, looking like I like children the most.

"I'm Brother Zhu, what's your name?"

The children looked at each other timidly, but they didn't dare to answer.

Aguz also seemed a little embarrassed, explaining for them:

"The children have a hard life and a weak personality, please forgive me Zhu Gongzi!"

Zhu Chuyu waved his hand and said with a generous face:

"It's okay, it's okay, you don't know, my favorite thing is these children."

Qin Zi also kept smiling on the side, as if warmed by the innocent appearance of several children.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he turned to ask:

"By the way, Aguz, you don't seem to be a monk here, do you?"

As soon as these words came out, Aguz seemed to be even more embarrassed.

"I'll tell you the truth, in fact, I'm really not, I've always followed those people in the caravan, but because the caravan is relatively close to Tongjitang, I am also familiar with this place."

Through Aguz's narration, Qin Zi and the others understood the situation here.

It turned out that the so-called Tongji Temple was actually a place where the emperor stayed when he came to Huangzhou.

But that was all about the year, when the emperor was already the great-ancestor of that one.

Time has passed, and today's Tongji Temple has not only lost its original prosperity, but even green buildings have been built around it.

The embarrassing thing is that because this place was also ordered by the emperor back then, it is very difficult to even change the address.

The most laughable thing is that although the Qinglou has been built around, the incense of Tongji Temple has not only not decreased since then, but has become more and more prosperous The main pilgrims, that is, those customers of the Qinglou, women who have been working in the Qinglou.

As for Tongji Temple becoming so lonely, it is entirely because the monks have slowly run out.

After all, when the incense is enough, life is better, and there are green buildings all around, in this environment, who wants to continue to be a monk?

Most of them have saved enough money to pay back the vulgar.

Even those who really believe in Buddhism have a hard time accepting the environment and choosing to go to other temples.

Therefore, this once prominent temple, although the incense has always been very strong, but because the monks have slowly run out, it is slowly lonely.

For such a situation, Qin Zi and the others couldn't laugh or cry.

Later, the presiding officer of Tongji Temple saw that the monks of the temple were almost unable to maintain the temple, so he simply changed it to a pharmacy.

Anyway, the government doesn't bother to care about this side of the matter, as long as Tongji Temple is still nominally there.

Don't say it, since it was converted into a pharmacy, business here is actually very good.

And because it's the only pharmacy on the street, the business is outrageous.

As for what kind of medicine those customers bought, that is, they understand everything, and it is difficult for me to say anything if they don't understand.

This kind of thing makes the host of Tongji Temple very helpless.

After all, at the beginning, I wanted to maintain the temple, and the incense was sufficient, but I couldn't maintain it because the monks ran away; I made up my mind to rely on medical skills to help the world, but what the hell are the guests, and the medicines I bought are basically those kinds.

But don't say it, this host is really not going to give up easily, and seeing that this road doesn't work, he actually paid attention to another way.

Therefore, the host began to try to adopt those orphans so that they could grow up to support themselves.

This time it was a good job.

Although it is a little embarrassing to educate these children because of the green buildings around, at least they have grown up healthy.

But in fact, the host also knows that such behavior is just a drop in the bucket for the world, but he still insists on doing it, and now, Tongji Temple, or Tongji Hall, has five children adopted just now.

As for those who have been able to support themselves and leave Tongjitang, there are even more.

Here, these children can learn medical skills with the old host, and when they go outside, they can be regarded as being able to eat together.

When he said this, Aguz unconsciously showed a very admiring expression on his face, as if in his eyes, the host was like a living Buddha.

Looking at his expression, Qin Zi was thoughtful.

He then went on to tell the story of the cause and effect between their merchants and the Tongji Temple.

Most of the people in the caravan of Aguz came from other places, and there were even special races like the Right Heart Clan.

Their encounter with the old host still originated from the experience of these people coming to the Qinglou to fool around.

At that time, these people came to Qinglou to fool around, and their bodies were a little unbearable, and they happened to hear that there was another pharmacy outside, and they wanted to go over and grab some medicine and go back to eat, so they had their first encounter with the old host.

Later, they naturally found out what the old host was doing, because they were all bachelors from other places, even if they were rich, they didn't have any family, and they all expressed their willingness to pay to help the old host.

Thus, the cause and effect between those merchants and Tongjitang were officially concluded.

Later, when Aguz arrived, he was brought over by those guys.

Because Aguz didn't want to go out with them, he originally stayed in the inn, and after learning about the existence here, he simply volunteered to stay and take care of the children.

Later, after getting to know each other, Aguz simply stayed.

In fact, it has been a long time since he first came, and he has sent away a group of children.

During this time, his appearance remained unchanged and naturally attracted the attention of others.

Those merchants knew about it in the first place, and later Aguz also confessed to the host.

The host naturally understood the pain of Aguz, and declared to the public that he was a monk who led the practice, and because of his penance to the Dharma, his face did not change much.

Speaking of this, Qin Zi and the others finally had a certain understanding of the situation here.

Qin Zi thought for a moment, and then asked:

"So, where is the host now?"

Although Zhu Chuyu didn't say it, he still had the same meaning.

In fact, he actually even has some doubts about the so-called host.

Of course, there are not many such doubts, but Zhu Chuyu will never give up this suspicion.

In his life, he has seen a lot of monks, not to mention all, at least most of them are the same as ordinary people, and a small number of them are because of the Buddhist precepts and pure cultivation, and the desire is even deeper than ordinary people.

At the end of the day, he just didn't believe in the purpose of Buddhism.

In his opinion, this sect completely makes people suppress their desires and want to make people like sages.

At the same time, the doctrine is full of control over believers, and it is not as good as it seems on the surface.

He even felt that this so-called cultivation was no longer a way to produce and enjoy offerings, but was more likely to fall into the devil's path than ordinary people.

Therefore, he would rather question these people with his greatest malice.

Of course, at least for now, there are still very few such doubts, and more of a kind of disbelief, I can't believe that there really is such a master in this Buddhism.

Hearing Qin Zi's inquiry, Aguz's eyes dimmed a little.

"The host went to recite the scriptures to everyone......

Qin Zi and the others were silent instantly.

Of course, they know who the "everyone" Aguz is talking about, and I am afraid that in the heart of this very old boy, those are indelible wounds.

After all, it's too cruel to think about it compared to being naturally separated because of the years.

But Aguz was stronger than they had imagined, and he only grieved for a moment before picking himself up.

"So, do the two sons have anything to do with the host?"
