Chapter 2 Ayi was seriously injured and left
Ayi buried the old plum's head, made a simple tablet with a piece of wood, and kowtowed his head. It was noon the next day, packed up my things, found a few clothes that were quite complete and changed into them, and prepared to go to the place where the old man confessed on his deathbed, Wutai Mountain.
Because Ayi looks delicate, polite to others, along the way is also smooth, but also got a lot of people's help, so less than a few days to come to the foot of Wutai Mountain, seeing that it is about to arrive, Ayi came to the temple gate in a puff, Daoming came to the intention, was brought in by the little monk, Wutai Temple in the Dharma Hall on the bell and drum. The elders of the Dharma will gather all the monks and preach the Dharma and participate in meditation in the Dharma Hall. Suddenly, all the monks of the temple put on their robes and sat down in the Dharma hall. Ayi and the little monk stood on either side. At the sound of the chime, two bowls of red gauze lanterns lead the elders to ascend to the throne. Elder Zhizhen went to the Dharma seat and first poured the letter incense.
After Ayi finished praying incense forward, he put his palms together and went to Zen and said, "There is a certain word, dare to ask my teacher." Elder Fa Xiang said, "Is there any French to ask the old monk?" Ayi stepped forward and said: "May I ask my teacher: the floating world has limited time, the sea of suffering is boundless, the human body is very small, and life and death are the greatest. I would like to ask Zen Master Yu. Elder Fa Xiang replied: "The six roots have been bound for many years, and the four have been entangled for a long time. In the light of the stone fire, a few somersaults were turned. Hey! All the beings in the Yanfu world roared frequently in the mud and sand. ”
The incense has been burned, and all the monks have retreated, so please go to the cloud hall to ask for fasting. After everyone fasted, Ayi followed the elder to the abbot. In the evening, Ayi asked the elders: "I was entrusted by someone to come to ask for help", so he told the old monk in detail how Lao Li Tou was seriously injured, how he gave instructions on his deathbed, and in addition to the matter of teaching books.
The elder stood for a long time, and finally sighed lightly and said: "The old gentleman had a few days of interaction with the poor monk many years ago, he is open-minded, and has a deep understanding of the way of heaven and earth.
As he spoke, the elder led Ayi to a room in the deepest part of the temple, which looked inconspicuous on the outside but was very good inside. I saw seven marble pillars, each with a name, for example, the most recent one is called "Wu", followed by "Chess", "Painting", "Qin", "Wine", "Technique", and "Strategy". There is a six-storey wooden bookshelf on the left and right of each stone pillar, and if you look like "Wu", the shelves are full of all kinds of martial arts, arranged from bottom to top according to the degree of difficulty. "Chess" is naturally a variety of chess games, and there is no need to talk about the rest. In the end, on the side of "plotting", Ayi flipped it over, and it turned out to be some conspiracies, ranging from charlatan deception to power struggle in the court.
The elder looked at Ayi, the books here were all hidden by the old gentleman that day, and the layout here was also what he meant. The old gentleman told the old monk that no matter who he asked to come in the future, he must stay here for half a year and read all the books, otherwise he will never be allowed to go out of here.
Ayi is a reader, so reading books is not a problem, and the injuries on his body are afraid that it will take half a year and a year to heal, so he has no objection and agrees to stay.
Since then, in addition to two meals a day, there are little monks sent over, here is located in the depths of the temple, coupled with the higher terrain of Wutai Mountain, so the library seems to be unusually quiet, whenever you can't see it, when your eyes are dizzy, Ayi carved a villain with a small piece of wood, as a little red with a green plum, put it aside, and have sustenance.
