Text Chapter 7 The Old Man Drinks Something New
The warm winter sun shone on the tired "cat" lying on the bed, Long Yuexin was probably dazzled by the sun, her long eyelashes opened slightly, revealing her shining blue eyes, she saw Lin Futian sitting on the edge of the window and practicing, Lin Futian was wearing a snow-white winter coat, his robe swayed slightly, when Long Yuexin woke up, Lin Futian stopped cultivating, and he was not in a hurry about the realm that was about to break through, Lin Futian said lightly: "Awake?" , Long Yuexin lay on the bed and stretched, it seemed that it was the first time she had slept so peacefully, because she knew that he was there. It's a trust for no reason, like it's bound to snow in winter.
Long Yuexin straightened her hair and said, "Don't you know that there is a difference between men and women? Lin Futian didn't know when he had come to the door, his hand was lightly on the door, he looked back at Long Yuexin, frowned and said, "Hurry up when you wake up, you have to hurry." The tightly knit brows looked extremely good in the sun, and Long Yuexin couldn't help but be a little stunned, thinking: "Although this guy doesn't like what he says, he still looks good." But she still said angrily: "I know, what are you urging, hurry up!" Lin Futian didn't want to say anything, and immediately went out, and the moment Lin Futian closed the door, the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile. In the past, as the Emperor of the Underworld, he rarely smiled.
Perhaps, he has really changed, but in fact, he has never changed, he was the Emperor of Hades, and he played all kinds of different roles in reincarnation, what is he for? Is it to become an invisible god worshiped by the world? He was really tired of the long years, and now, it's time. He didn't want to let others down anymore, and this feeling of indebtedness made him very uncomfortable, like a crushed meat sauce, leaving only a silent sigh. He made up his mind that in this life, he would never let anyone down, he didn't want to leave regrets again, regrets from previous lives, this time, he wanted to make up for it all.
This may only be the first life of Lin Futian, but it is the last life of the Emperor of the Underworld, and Lin Futian is also the Emperor of the Underworld......
When Lin Futian and Long Yuexin came to Mingze Town, it was already dusk, and the two of them still haven't found a place to rest in the huge town, which is also strange, such a big town, there is not even an empty room, just when Lin Futian and Long Yuexin were confused, suddenly a melodious wooden fish voice came from afar: "Wandering life and death, often sinking into the sea of suffering, forever distorted." Those who have attained enlightenment are always quiet. When Lin Futian heard this, he was a little surprised, and Long Yuexin was also startled, and he didn't know where this voice came from. Compared to Long Yuexin, Lin Futian was extremely happy, "Is it him?" Lin Futian said in his heart. Just when the two of them were extremely confused, a little monk with closed eyes came to him, only to see him with his hands folded, his expression calm, walking slowly, calmly. When I got closer, I saw that he was wearing a purple and gold Buddha robe, which seemed to be worn by the abbots of the older generation. But this little monk seems to be about the same age as Lin Futian and them, and he actually wore such a noble purple gold Buddha robe, Lin Futian's expression couldn't help but be a little strange.
As if seeing Lin Futian's strange look, the little monk said embarrassedly: "The master said, I don't know how to talk about Buddhism, it smells worse than the bedbugs in the stinky ditch, so I had to let me wear this Buddha robe to support the faΓ§ade, but the master seems to have never gone down the mountain in my impression, so I don't believe what he said, hehe." Lin Futian smiled and said, "Hehe, your master asked you to come to me?" The little monk smiled and said, "Well, did you guess?" Lin Futian said: "I already knew." Hearing Lin Futian say that he knew, instead of guessing, the little monk sighed, shook his head and said, "I knew that I didn't pretend to be a superior person before." The little monk arched his hand and said, "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I'm really ashamed." β
Long Yuexin saw that this little monk was obviously about the same age as herself, but he spoke like an adult, and couldn't help laughing and said, "Little monk, you're quite interesting, take us to a place where we can rest." The little monk slapped his head violently and said, "Oh! I almost forgot my business, two donors, please come with me."
It is estimated that he lives in the mountains all the year round, and the little monk always talks constantly along the way, Long Yuexin suddenly remembered the matter of this town, so he asked: "Little monk, why is there not even an inn in this town?" The little monk heard this, hesitated for a moment and said: "You should not know the situation of this town very well, this town will be haunted by ghosts every night, so basically no one comes to this town, and ah, after the early hours of the morning, I heard that there will be people who will be captured by ghosts." So when the sun is about to go down, everyone will hide in their homes, fearing that they will be captured by elusive ghosts. β
"Then why don't you and your master leave it alone?" Lin Futian asked. The little monk sighed and said, "Alas...... It's pretty simple, but it's a bit of a hassle to do, so neither my master nor I want to worry about it. β
Long Yuexin frowned and asked, "Don't you all say that your family is compassionate?Why are you and your master like this?" The little monk smiled helplessly: "Who said that we monks must take care of these things? Besides, aren't you here?" "You!" Long Yue said angrily. "Okay, okay, I'll solve this matter, don't talk about it," Lin Futian waved his hand and smiled.
"Hmph!" Long Yuexin turned her head and walked forward on her own. Lin Futian and the little monk sighed helplessly. "You are really as lazy as your master, no wonder those people called him a lazy monk back then?" Lin Futian glanced at the little monk and said. The little monk scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Hehe, although my master is lazy, he is still quite powerful......, right?
Lin Futian didn't know what he had in mind, and he couldn't help but sigh a little, has the angry King Kong of the year been replaced by a compassionate bodhisattva now?
Looking back on the past, it is infinitely emotional, like wine on the moon, pouring down from the sky in the lonely night......
Gradually, they could see a temple, and before they could get closer, they heard bursts of Buddha sounds, and the Buddha sound was lightly clasped in their hearts, and Lin Futian and his party couldn't help but feel that their hearts were in an incomparable peace. Above the red gate of the temple, there is a gold plaque with a large gilded character written on it - Anning Temple. The font is vigorous and powerful, such as the dragon entrenched on the plaque, and the red brick wall of the temple seems to be a little old, and the wall skin has fallen off in some places.
The temple in front of him looked a little desolate, Lin Futian's eyes couldn't help but be a little red, and he took a step forward, and his white robe was flying. Lin Futian closed his eyes, folded his hands, and slowly bent down and bowed. Long Yuexin didn't know why Lin Futian did this, she only saw the corners of the boy's mouth trembling, and tears flowed from his closed eyes. Inexplicably, Long Yuexin felt that this boy was a little pitiful, and she couldn't say why.
The little monk also folded his hands and kept chanting Buddhist scriptures......
It took a long time for Lin Futian to raise his head, and his trembling hands gently pushed open the door of the temple, and suddenly, a black wine jug was thrown. After Lin Futian received the wine jug, he grinned, as if at this time, he was like a child. In the very center of the temple, sat a bald monk with a rugged face, about forty years old, with a naked upper body, revealing solid muscles. With this appearance, it's hard to believe that he is a monk, and he is still a very powerful monk......
The old monk crossed his legs, and beside his legs, there was a black wine jug. Lin Futian also sat down cross-legged like an old monk. On the side of the leg, there is also an identical black flask.
The two looked at each other speechlessly.
Long Yuexin was taken to the side by the little monk, and she didn't know how this little monk with closed eyes could discern the direction, although Long Yuexin didn't understand why Lin Futian was like this, but she still sat quietly in the chair, and in her eyes, there was only Lin Futian.
After a long time, the old monk spoke: "Are you tired?" The redness on Lin Futian's eyes had not yet faded, and he was trying his best to hide the urge to cry, sniffing, Lin Futian shook his head and said, "Not tired." β
"Liar," the old monk pouted. Lin Futian smiled helplessly: "Hehe, it's actually quite tired, how have you been all these years?" The old monk said. Lin Futian sighed and said, "This life is the last life. The old monk was silent for a while, frowned at his two sword eyebrows and said, "Have you thought about it?" Lin Futian said: "Have you thought about it, what about you? This time it is not as easy as the last time." The old monk laughed and said, "Hmph, there is really nothing in this world that I am afraid of." β
The corners of Lin Futian's mouth curled, and he said, "Come one?" I saw the wine jug next to the old monk flying towards Lin Futian inexplicably, Lin Futian smiled, and the wine jug on his leg was thrown up by him and flew towards the wine jug. The two wine jugs touched lightly in the air, and then returned to the hands of the two, and Lin Futian and the old monk raised their heads at the same time to drink, just like back then.
After running out of wine, Lin Futian said with some sadness: "After so many years, I'm sorry." The old monk smiled: "What is there to be sorry for, just let me kill enough this time" It's hard to believe, this is what a monk said. Lin Futian smiled: "Don't worry, some of them are for you to play." "Hahahaha," the two laughed heroically.
"By the way, that apprentice of yours is quite interesting. Lin Futian said. The old monk said with some pride: "Lao Tzu's vision is good, hahaha, when I picked up this kid, I found that this kid has Buddha nature, so I took him as my apprentice, and now if I go out, I can be an abbot casually."
Lin Futian frowned and said, "But he is obviously not blind, why do you keep his eyes closed?" The old monk seemed to be a little embarrassed, and said: "You still ask him, if he doesn't want to say it, forget it." "Yes, I see. Anyway, is there really a ghost in this town?"
The old monk said helplessly: "They are all poor people, they have never hurt others, but they are too nostalgic for this world and are reluctant to leave." As he spoke, the old monk sighed heavily.
Lin Futian said: "Everything in the world is impermanent and empty. You'd better help these poor people, after all, their way of existence is quite pathetic, everything will eventually come to an end, let's let them go back to where they belong. β
The night was beautiful, silent and dawn was approaching.
In the morning, the sun shines on this temple of tranquility, the laziest old monk and the little monk in the temple got up the earliest today, the old monk today long lost wearing his Buddha clothes, the Buddha clothes are shining, setting off the old monk as if the Buddha is alive, compassion is boundless. The old monk stood in the air, and beside him was the little monk with his eyes closed, and the little monk was as always, with his hands folded. And the old monk also folded his hands and closed his eyes.
Mercy clothes, aerial view.
The old monk spoke slowly, and the Buddha's voice overflowed, "Who is the mystery and who is enlightened, sleep until tomorrow." When returning, intentionally or unintentionally, the Buddha will always exist and return to no silence. I saw that the whole town was filled with Buddha's meaning, the ghosts dissipated without a trace, and the sun shone in swaggeringly, and the town finally ushered in the morning.
The little monk smiled and said, "I'm afraid to see things in the world, so I cut my head and put on a Buddha robe." For today's sake, don't keep your memories. "The Buddha is full of meaning, like a warm sun.
In the Anning Temple, Lin Futian sat on the ground in a white robe, black hair hanging quietly, Lin Futian slowly closed his eyes, his hands were folded, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his compassion was infinite. I saw him slowly speak: "On the stage of the 10,000-year-old sad scene, I saw the old man with a new sense of wine. β
