Chapter 122: Chinese New Year [3000 words]
The big black mouse immediately shrank into it after sending the bamboo shoots, and then the squirrel crawled out of the hole, patted the ashes on his body, pointed to the bamboo shoots, and walked towards the temple with the small bamboo strips.
Xiao Liu was dumbfounded the whole time, and finally stupidly took the bamboo shoot and followed behind the squirrel's buttocks, just like a child who had done something wrong, and didn't dare to surpass the squirrel at all.
At this moment, Xiao Liu only felt that he was dreaming, and he must be dreaming!
So she pinched herself hard......
"Pain, pain, pain, ......"
The stupid girl jumped on the spot.
The squirrel looked back at the fool, then shook his head, and walked away as if he was unteachable.
Xiao Liu was actually despised by a squirrel!
At that moment, she only felt that she was being struck.
After coming back, Xiao Liu's whole body was wilted, and he sat there, his eyes were straight, and he seemed to be a little suspicious of life.
On the other side, Fang Zheng took Li Xueying to finish the scenery around the temple.
Along the way, Li Xueying said some unsatisfactory and happy things in her life, and then asked curiously: "Abbot Fangzheng, do you have anything unhappy?" Tell me about it, make me happy. ”
After thinking about it, Fang Zheng said: "The poor monk doesn't have any extravagant hopes, and he doesn't have anything to ask for, if he has to say it, it's to experience what it's like to be an inappropriate monk." I have been practicing with Master since I was a child, and I have lived for 20 years, but I don't know what kind of world and life is outside.
Sometimes, I envy ordinary people, wives and children hot kang heads, a cup of two pot heads, bragging ......"
This is Fangzheng's heart, he always shouts to be vulgar, but he doesn't have to be vulgar.
After all, his current life is still good, he has food, clothing and housing, he is not bullied, and there are a few cute apprentices around him.
But because he has never experienced the life of ordinary people, he always feels that there are shortcomings in life......
The one-finger Zen master gave his father paternal love, but his maternal love has always been missing;
He wanted to feel the warmth of home.
This is the obsession he has not been able to let go.
Li Xueying didn't expect that Fangzheng, a monk, just wanted to return to the vulgar with one mouth, wanted to marry a wife, and then live a life of wife and children hot kang and drinking wine. This really surprised her......
This time, she didn't think that this monk was running away with his mouth, but that this monk was very special.
He doesn't seem to have any psychological baggage, he can say whatever he wants, live transparently, and speak clearly.
But thinking about the unreliable words that Fang Zheng said before, she was really a little confused......
At this moment, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers was faintly heard in the distance, and Fang Zheng immediately looked at Li Xueying, looked at Li Xueying with bright eyes and said, "Master Li, do you want to see fireworks?" ”
"Do you still have fireworks?" Li Xueying asked in surprise.
Fang Zheng shook his head: "The poor monk has a little bit of this, but those are all small fireworks for the apprentices to play, and the poor monks can't afford the big fireworks." But let's go and see it! How about it, do you want to go? ”
What kind of fireworks haven't Li Xueying seen? She has seen the International Fireworks Festival and the fireworks on the banks of the Liuyang River in China, and she still sits on the best viewing platform.
She wasn't interested in fireworks anymore and just wanted to be quiet.
But for some reason, looking at the pure, excited eyes in front of her, she had a rare feeling of returning to her childhood.
At that time, it was called the New Year when she was able to watch a fireworks, and the childlike fun, memories, and excitement that she had suppressed in her heart for a long time were also activated: "Okay, go and see!" ”
Then Fang Zheng called the lone wolf, and the two of them sat side by side on a bright sleigh and galloped away on the desert.
The wind is too strong, and there is a moon-white monk's robe to protect the body, which is cold in winter and cool in summer, and I don't feel anything.
But Li Xueying subconsciously shrunk her neck and tightened her scarf.
Fang Zheng said: "Or, you will be behind the poor monk?" Poor monks help you out of the wind and snow? ”
Li Xueying was really cold, nodded, and shrank behind Fang Zheng.
She looked at Fang Zheng's back with a pair of big eyes, her eyes were first warm and grateful, and then curious, intense curiosity, and finally she couldn't help it and asked, "Abbot Fang Zheng, you don't even have a hair, the wind blows on your head, isn't it cold?" ”
Fang Zheng was speechless for a while, and then smiled: "Probably this is the child of a poor family who is in charge early, and his skin is not afraid of the cold." ”
Li Xueying rolled her eyes, she didn't believe it, she felt that Fang Zheng was mostly hard, after all, there were too many people who were handsome in front of her, and she had seen a lot.
But as time passed, she found that Fang Zheng was really not cold!
She suddenly became more curious, she touched the square moon-white monk's robe, and couldn't figure out why this monk was not cold with such thin clothes......
Looking at the unexplained phenomenon in front of me, I was thinking about the flowers that broke through the snow, the bamboos that were still growing in winter, and the oasis that was said to have been planted this year......
She was a little confused for a while, and she couldn't tell whether what Fang Zheng said was true or false.
She thought it was fake before, but after seeing too many inexplicable things, and thinking of Fang Zheng's pure and serious eyes, she had a letter.
Just when Li Xueying was in chaos, Fang Zheng shouted: "It's here!" ”
Fang Zheng beckoned Li Xueying to get out of the car, Li Xueying jumped down when she saw Fang Zheng jumping down, she also jumped, and jumped directly into the snow pit.
As soon as Fang Zheng turned around, the person was gone, and when he lowered his head again, Li Xueying was left with his head on the ground, looking at him pitifully.
Fang Zheng laughed and pulled her out of the snow.
Li Xueying asked: "What about fireworks?" ”
"Go up, go up and see it!" Fang Zheng pointed to the dune road.
Li Xueying seemed to be afraid of falling into the school pit again, this time she grabbed Fang Zheng's hand, and the two had no other crooked thoughts, so they rushed to the sand dunes hand in hand.
Coincidentally, the moment the two went up, a firework rose in the direction of Fangtang Village!
Whoosh ......
Bang bang bang......
Huge fireworks burst into the sky, lighting up the night sky and dyeing the white desert in many colors.
The two looked up at the fireworks and smiled.
A stupid dog also jumped on the sand dunes excitedly, as if he wanted to jump up and bite a firework, and then stepped on the air and rolled directly down the dune, making Li Xueying laugh.
This fireworks is very large, far from being capable of being set off in a small village like Fangtang Village, but it is like a grand fireworks game organized by someone.
The fireworks were set off for a full hour, and all kinds of fireworks came again, and it was enjoyable to watch.
In the end, Fang Zheng took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Hou Tian, asking him why there were such beautiful fireworks in Fangtang Village.
Hou Tian replied: "There is a new leader in the city, who is optimistic about Fangtang Village and wants to engage in tourism. There was a fireworks show for the Chinese New Year this year, and there was another one on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. We are located in the desert, and many environmental indicators are lower than other places, so we can set off fireworks on a large scale......"
Fang Zheng suddenly realized, he said, how can such a poor village in Fangtang Village have the money to set off fireworks, it turned out to be the policy of local leaders to benefit one party.
It's cheaper, and you can watch a few fireworks shows every year.
On the way back, the relationship between Fang Zheng and Li Xueying was obviously closer, and Li Xueying was also more open, no longer restrained, and directly talked nonsense about the mess in Tiannanhaibei.
Back at the Yizhi Temple, the two beckoned everyone to get together, lit a large bonfire, and started the barbecue party.
However, there is really no meat to use for barbecue, so it is basically grilled eggplant and steamed bread slices.
Although there are outsiders, squirrels, lone wolves, and monkeys are not easy to speak, but the body language can still be understood, after all, these guys are in a ball and grab food, which everyone can see.
With these living treasures, you can't even think about the temple if you don't want to be happy.
Of course, some people are happy and some people are not.
For example, the salted fish lying in the wishing pond, as a salted fish, let alone talking, it is not good to wander around in front of people, so he just lies there the whole time, staring at a pair of fish eyes, secretly gagging his mouth, and he doesn't know what he is muttering......
Just after midnight, Li Xueying suddenly jumped up.
Fang Zheng was stunned: "Master Li, who are you?" ”
Li Xueying said: "It's all here, I have to burn the first incense stick of the new year, otherwise wouldn't it be a big loss?" ”
Fang Zheng smiled bitterly: "The poor monk only has Guanyin in this temple, and the donor asks for a son?" ”
Li Xueying glanced at him: "I ask for peace, for the safety of my parents, for the safety of my relatives, for the safety of my friends, and for my own safety." Didn't you just say that asking for Buddha is to seek peace of mind, since you don't expect the Buddha to do something for yourself, let's go through the motions. ”
So Li Xueying walked into the Buddha hall, knelt in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and made a wish to incense.
The red boy shouted, "Two hundred and one incense." ”
Xiao Liu rolled his eyes: "Knock on the door!" ”
When Li Xueying came back again, Fang Zheng asked curiously: "Listen to what you mean, your parents are still there?" So why not go home for the Chinese New Year? ”
When Li Xueying heard this, her smiling face was suddenly full of bitterness, and she shook her head, as if she had some bitterness.
Xiao Liu shouted: "Go home? Their family can't wait to eat her now! The whole village is waiting for her to go back and send the money. ”
Fang Zheng was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”
Xiao Liu shook his head and said, "It's not meaningful, literally." The ancients said, after making money, move quickly, that's the truth! ”
Fang Zheng was speechless for a while: "You ancients speak very well in the vernacular." ”
Xiao Liu's face didn't blush, and he said with a big grin: "I don't remember what I said, but that's what it means anyway." Don't you know, as long as our family Xue Ying goes back, everyone up and down the village will come to ask for money. ”
Li Xueying said: "It's borrowing money." ”
"Is there anything to be paid back? One by one, it was like a bottomless pit, and when they opened their mouths, they were 180,000, as if it was not money but a piece of paper. They can't get out 100,000 pieces of paper. The clanging of the poor family, if they are cheeky, they will borrow money, and if they don't borrow, they will scold you;
If you borrow less, they will scold you;
If you borrow it, they will scold you;
That kind of place, if you want me to say, move out quickly. Xiao Liu shouted.
