65, Xiangguo Temple Adventure (II)
After listening to Xiao Shami's words, Shen Zhiyi pondered for a while, and decided to follow Xiao Shami to the main hall to meet his master.
"Twigs."
Shen Shaowei shouted at her, a little worried, Shen Zhiyi turned to look at her, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, I'll go back." ”
There are also a lot of guards in Xiangguo Temple, plus my sister and brother are still waiting outside, so there will be no major incidents.
Xiao Shami took Shen Zhiyi around the big incense burner in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, where there were still people worshipping the Buddha, and the cigarette smoke was rising, carrying the wishes of many people, but for some reason after walking to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, it was deserted and there was no one here.
"Master is waiting for you inside, please come in."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Shami stood at the door of the main hall and did not go any further, Shen Zhiyi thanked him, raised his feet and walked into the hall, the light poured in through the round window, shining on the shiny floor tiles.
Under the tall golden Buddha statue, there is an old man sitting on his knees, his left hand on his left foot, meditating, hearing footsteps, he slowly said: "Little donor." ”
His voice was very old, as if he was going to die in the next second.
"Who are you?"
Shen Zhiyi didn't know him, so he asked out in confusion, only to see the old man smile and speak: "The little donor is plagued by frightening dreams day and night, but he is still bored with the consequences of his previous life?" ”
His straightforward words made Shen Zhiyi a little surprised, how could he know about rebirth?
But thinking that this is a temple, maybe there are really some eminent monks, didn't the little novice just say that his master is willing to give her a glimpse of the heavens.
"Master is right, I was indeed disturbed by the nightmares of my past life, and I couldn't sleep day and night."
Shen Zhiyi walked to the futon behind him and sat down, and said slowly.
I don't know why, as soon as she falls asleep, she dreams about the things of her past life, and the things that hurt her and make her feel uneasy in the past continue to play out in her dreams.
"If you don't sleep like this day and night, I'm afraid your life will end in three years."
The old man folded his legs and turned sideways to look at him.
What a face it was, criss-crossed with wrinkles all over his face, and his eyes were a little cloudy, as if he couldn't see anything clearly.
It's just that after seeing Shen Zhiyi, there was a moment of light in his eyes, but it was fleeting, so fast that Shen Zhiyi couldn't see clearly.
"Child, all the causes and effects in this world cannot be explained by answers, all you are bothered about is the fear that the events of the previous life will repeat themselves, but since God has given you a chance to be reborn, it is for you to take advantage of it."
"Everything in heaven and earth pays attention to a random fate, you need to remember that heaven should be human, and time will be combined, it is really unnecessary to embarrass yourself, and you will be trapped in place and unable to escape."
After saying that, he raised his eyes to look at her, and there seemed to be a lot of love in his cloudy eyes, but Master Wu didn't say much.
In fact, there is the most important sentence, she and the Marquis of Changping are a pair made in heaven, they are destined to be together, and no matter what happens, they cannot be separated.
invited Shen Zhiyi today, and he also spied on the heavens and found that her life expectancy was only three years at a young age.
Nightmares are the inability to sleep day and night. Tossing and turning. He had received the favor of Old Madam Shen, so he naturally wanted to help him, so it was not difficult to do so.
The old man took out a box of incense from his robe and said slowly, "This is the sleeping incense I made myself. Lighting a column every night before bed can help relieve your nightmares. ”
Shen Zhiyi stretched out his hand to take it and sincerely thanked him: "Thank you for your enlightenment today." ”
If she wants to let go of the things of her previous life, how can it be so easy, that is the pain she has experienced.
However, what he said made a lot of sense, she trapped herself in the cause of her previous life, struggling, and believed that only by finding a way to save the Shen family could she be free.
But how simple is cause and effect in this world, there must be a specific answer to explain it.
If she can't find it for a while, she will also exhaust her body first.
"You're a smart kid, and it's worth it to listen."
Lao She praised her, and then summoned Xiao Shami to send her out.
When he went out, Shen Zhiyi glanced back at him, and he just sat there quietly meditating, raising his head slightly, as if he was talking to the gods.
The towering and dignified Buddha statue looked at him with kind eyebrows, and at that moment Shen Zhiyi really felt that he would never see him again in the future.
"May I ask the little master, what is the name of the master sitting in the Daxiong Treasure Hall?"
He talked to him so much, but he didn't tell Shen Zhiyi his Dharma name.
Xiao Shami clasped his hands together and said Amitabha: "The family teacher has no number." ”
Hearing Xiao Shami's words, Shen Zhiyi was shocked, is this the master who can talk to the gods and Buddhas, spy on the heavens, and pass through the heavens and the earth?
Doesn't it mean that Master Wu never lives in Xiangguoji Temple, but lives on the top of the mountain, and sometimes travels around the world?
How can she be virtuous, can she get the guidance of this enlightened monk, thinking of this, Shen Zhiyi looked back at the Daxiong Treasure Hall again, and Master Wu sat there as if he was asleep.
When Xiao Shami brought her to the gate of the temple, Shen Shaowei and Shen Shaoqing were waiting there.
The two saw Shen Zhiyi coming over, stepped forward and asked with concern.
"Brother, sister, I'm fine, let's go see my grandmother, I've been delayed for so long, and I don't know if my grandmother is in a hurry."
The place where Mrs. Shen lives is on the west side of Xiangguo Temple, and it has always been the wing room where these noble ladies came to worship the Buddha.
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw Mother Lin next to Mrs. Shen.
Mother Lin was also very happy to see the three of them, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute them: "The old slave has seen the eldest son, the second girl, and the fourth girl."
Shen Shaowei stretched out her hand to help Mother Lin up, and said with a smile: "Mother Lin, don't be polite to us, grandmother is waiting in the side room in a hurry?" ”
"The old lady knew that someone would come to the house today, so she got up early and waited, and seeing that you had not arrived for a long time, she must have been a little delayed on the road, and told the old slave to tell you, it's okay."
She led a few people towards the wing room where Mrs. Shen lived, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw Mrs. Shen sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a scripture book.
Old Madam Shen lowered her eyebrows and looked very kind, Shen Zhiyi's eyes quietly reddened, and she walked a few steps quickly and threw herself into her arms.
"Grandmother, Zhizhi misses you so much!"
The girl's eyes were red, as if she was going to cry, and Mrs. Shen was also a little uncomfortable when she saw it, and she never thought that she would let the child think of her like this after just being separated for half a year.
Shen Zhiyi didn't dare to look up at her, as long as he saw his grandmother's loving gaze, he could think of the things in his previous life.
"Okay, you kid, I knew you thought of me like this, I should have brought you to Xiangguo Temple in the first place."
Old Madam Shen teased her, causing a room full of laughter.
She snuggled up to Old Madam Shen, and after a while, she asked, "Has Grandmother met Master Wu?" ”
Wu Wu's mouth said that it was because he had received the favor of his grandmother that he came to order him, so Shen Zhiyi was a little curious about what happened between his grandmother and Master Wu?
Hearing Shen Zhiyi mention Master Wu, Old Madam Shen's gaze was stunned for a moment, followed by sadness.
Shen Zhiyi looked up at her, and knew that there must be an unspeakable past between Master Wu and her grandmother, so she made her grandmother so uncomfortable.
"The relationship between the master and the grandmother, that was decades ago."
Old Madam Shen lowered her head and said, but after this sentence, she didn't say anything further, but just diverted the topic and asked the three of them to get their luggage and prepare to go home.
