94, the holy grace of the Buddha

The three of them had just stepped into the threshold of the main hall, and suddenly, Master Fa Shen did not look back, his right hand flicked to the back of his head, and suddenly saw a thin thread fly straight to the place where his dragon's head crutch was inserted. In an instant, the dragon's head crutch rose from the stone and flew all the way to the palm of Master Fashen's hand. The whole movement is skillfully done and clean, which makes people feel unnoticed.

However, although the old abbot was unaware of Master Fashen's move, the old monk Huiming still turned his head and smiled, and continued to walk towards the hall.

Master Fa Shen followed the two old monks, and soon entered another large meditation room from the east side of the main hall, and his eyes suddenly opened up. Although this meditation room is not as tall and wide as the Daxiong Treasure Hall, it is much brighter than the main hall, and this room is also spacious and open-minded, at least able to accommodate more than 100 people; Through the tall open window, the sunlight slanted down from the west, making the floor of the meditation room seem to leave a bright rectangular mirror, reflecting the burning light and piercing the human eye. On both sides of it, there are still speckled spots of light that are transmitted down, which seem to be dotted around, illuminating the entire meditation room. With these bright lights, Master Fa Shen looked at the furnishings in the room: he saw a bottle of pot-bellied Maitreya Buddha sitting on the opposite side, with his mouth wide open, looking at the three of them with a smile, like a bottle of Oriental Living Buddha. At the foot of this Maitreya Buddha, there is a vermilion table of eight immortals, on which is placed a small wooden box, a Tang Sancai ceramic pot, and a total of eight teacups are symmetrically placed on both sides. On both sides of the table of the Eight Immortals, there are two wooden chairs. On the north side of the Maitreya Buddha and the Eight Immortals Table, there is a simple wooden bed where things lie down! There is nothing else, if the large meditation room is empty.

At this time, the old abbot smiled reluctantly and said to the two, "Please sit down quickly, two of you." This is the old man's meditation room, you don't have to be polite! ”

Between the words, the old monk Huiming and Master Fa Shen had already sat down separately and sat at the Eight Immortals tea table. At the same time, the old abbot had poured two glasses of steaming boiled water for the two of them. Immediately, he pinched two pinches of silver-white powder from the small wooden box next to Tang Sancai's ceramic pot and put them in two cups of boiled water. Then, the old abbot covered the tea lid and said to the two: "The old man's meditation room is not enough to entertain the two of you, so let's just do it!" This cup is filled with honeysuckle powder, which can cure heat and calm the spirit, cool off the heat and remove sores and prickly heat, and the two of you can use tea! ”

"The old abbot doesn't have to be so polite!" The old monk Huiming said: "In the future, the two of us will be frequent visitors here. Master Fa Shen will also settle down in this monastery for a period of time in the future. ”

"Wonderful! Is this really the case? The old abbot was surprised, hurriedly took Master Fashen's hands, and said, "The old man can't ask for it!" I can't ask for it! ”

Seeing this situation, Master Fa Shen also hurriedly got up and said, "Since Elder Huiming has spoken first, I will no longer shirk. From now on, I'm going to bother here for a while. Please don't be surprised by the old abbot! ”

"What are you talking about?" The old abbot was so excited, with tears in his eyes, that his voice trembled: "You and I are both monks, why bother to say this!" You can settle in our temple because of the Buddha's mercy and giving the master to join our temple and jointly manage the affairs of this temple. Pity the eighteen Arhat disciples of this academy have recently died, and the old man is saddened by the loss of so many disciples! ”

Between the words, the old abbot was already in tears.

At this time, the old monk Huiming couldn't bear to persuade: "Old abbot! Don't be overly sad. As the saying goes, you can't be resurrected after death. My Buddha's Holy Grace will allow the eighteen disciples to roam in the Western Elysium. Why should you worry about them? It's better to take care of your body! ”

The old abbot listened to Elder Huiming's persuasion, wiped away the old tears on his face, looked sad, and said, "Elder Huiming! You don't know the sorrow of my heart! The death of the eighteen disciples like this will not only make us sad and sad, but also the Descending Dragon Temple will be desolate and lonely from now on, can I not worry about it? ”

Master Fa Shen listened to the old abbot's heartfelt words, and also stepped forward to persuade: "The old abbot should not be sad, and I will try my best to assist you in the future." After a long time, this dragon temple still can't cut off the incense. ”

Hearing the kind words of Master Fa Shen and comforting him, the old abbot said even more gratefully: "Good! Wonderful! Thank you for the apprentices! …… Oh! The old man is simply out of order! Dare to ask the master what the name is......"

"Oh!" Master Fa Shen understood in his heart, smiled and said: "My Dharma name is Fa Shen, and I have lived in the Donglin Temple of Lushan and the Lingyin Temple in the land of Wu Yue. But in recent years, I've come and gotten to the world. Today, I am so grateful that the old abbot accepted me into the temple! ”

"Whoa! Master Fashen doesn't have to be polite! Please sit down and have tea! Mrs. Fang stretched out her hand to salute, and then said, "Master Fashen's apprentice is really diligent and willing to work!" He was busy cleaning the house and outside for us, and he was already tired and sweating, but he still refused to stop and rest! ”

"Oh! That's my little apprentice Zhikong, who has been following me for thirteen years. In the future, our master and apprentice will keep this temple, and please ask the old abbot to take care of it. ”

"It's nature! It's a pity that the master is one step late, otherwise, our Dragon Descending Temple will never suffer from this catastrophe! ”

"Yes! I regret it too! I am deeply saddened by the loss of these eighteen Arhat disciples of Buddhism! ”

"Oh! That's right! The old abbot seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly asked, "Does Master Fa Shen know who those six heroes are?" ”

After hearing this, Master Fa Shen glanced at the old monk Huiming who was tasting silver flower tea, turned his head to the old abbot and said, "The six of them are the 'Six Heroes of Shudong', and now they have gone to Songshan. ”

"What?" The old abbot couldn't help but be taken aback, and said, "They are the world-famous 'Six Heroes of Shudong?!" Ah! Why didn't you say it earlier! They rescued the five of us from mid-air, and left in a hurry. We felt guilty that we couldn't keep them for a fasting meal to show our gratitude! ”

"Whoa! Why should the old abbot be like this! The six of them are all righteous people in martial arts, traveling all over the world, acting chivalrous and righteous, and saving in distress. They are satisfied with the salvation of you, and you don't need to thank them for any kindness! ”

"Alas! There is such an unfortunate thing in the world! The old abbot sighed and said, "The invincible 'Six Heroes of Shudong' is also a step late. If they had been present at the time, it was expected that the killer would not have been able to kill our eighteen disciples. ”

"Ahem! Old abbot, why are you here again. The old monk Huiming listened a little impatiently on the sidelines, and interjected: "Since the matter has passed, let it pass." Why bother talking about it all the time? Life in the world is just a hurried passerby, and sooner or later he will have to leave. ”

At this time, Master Fa Shen listened to it in his heart, and he was displeased again. He said in his heart: "What happened to this old monk Huiming today?" As soon as his words came out, it was like a gesture! Could it be that he is the killer! Hum! Joke! Look up to him! How can a blind old monk be the killer of the rivers and lakes? What's more, he categorically would not poison his own disciples! It's just that his words reveal indifference to the death of the eighteen disciples everywhere, he is simply a cold-blooded monk! ”

The more Master Shen pondered like this, the more he felt that the old monk Huiming was an eccentric character, and even he began to think that this blind old monk did not understand human nature, and his admiration for Elder Huiming at the beginning had already faded. So, in order not to provoke the anger of this old monk Huiming, Master Fa Shen continued: "It's okay! Let's stop talking about this sad thing. Let's discuss how to bury these eighteen disciples. ”

However, to the surprise of Master Fashen, he did not say anything, and his words angered the old monk Huiming. only heard a "snap", which shocked him into a "cold heart".

"It's a matter of this hospital!" The old monk Huiming slapped the case violently and said angrily: "Let them meditate and cultivate in the West Zen room first, and their own Buddha will accept them to ascend to the Elysian World." ”

"Yes! Don't be angry, old mage! The old abbot hurriedly said to Elder Huiming: "Master Fa Shen has just arrived, and he still doesn't know the rules of this academy, please forgive me." Let's have a cup of tea! ”

At this time, Master Fa Shen knew that his words were wrong, and he couldn't help but get up and say to the old monk Huiming: "Amitabha! When the poor monk first came here, he didn't know that there was such a Buddhist custom here, which was really offensive! ”

"Whoa! Master Fashen! There is a saying that 'those who do not know do not blame', what is the offense? What's more, as the supreme martial arts, the old monk still has to respect you for three points! ”

As he spoke, the old abbot invited the two of them to sit on their seats. Then, he said slowly: "My Dragon Descending Temple has always been famous for Master Huiming's divine calculations. From now on, there is Master Fashen, who is the supreme of martial arts, into our temple. The old monk thought that this dragon temple could not only still be famous, but also a dragon that could be brought down to the world! ”

When Master Fa Shen and Elder Hui Ming heard this, they smiled at each other. Afterwards, Master Fa Shen put down the teacup and said, "Good! Wonderful! Now the poor monk can tell you two of a popular event to strengthen the power of our temple! ”

"Oh! What's the big deal? The old abbot hurriedly turned around and asked.

"The six heroes of Shudong have now gone to Songshan Shaolin! Due to the urgency of the situation, there was no time to discuss in detail. But the poor monk knew everything about what he was doing. To tell you the truth, before they came to the Descending Dragon Temple, they had already ......"

"Oh! You don't have to say it! The old man had already known about this. I saw Master Huiming raise his hand to interrupt Master Fashen's words and said, "They have killed the giant snake hidden in the dinosaur cave in the southwest corner of the mountain, and finally fulfilled a long-cherished wish of the Dragon Temple, and eradicated a major disaster for the Taibai Mountain Area!" ”

"Ahh Is there such a thing?! The old abbot's eyes widened in surprise, and he said again and again: "Good! Wonderful! The Holy Grace of the Buddha! The Holy Grace of the Buddha! The Descending Dragon Temple has finally removed a major disaster! The 'Six Heroes of Shudong' are really gods! ”

Between the words, the old abbot was already so excited that he burst into tears, as if he had seen the thrilling scene of six heroes slashing and killing the big snake. Under the hallucination, the eighteen Arhat disciples who had just died in the dragon descending seemed to have died one by one in order to eradicate the big snake in his mind, which made a trace of comfort pass through his heart.

However, at this time, Master Fa Shen was categorically different from the old abbot's thoughts. He couldn't help but look sideways at the old monk Huiming who was still talking, and said angrily in his heart: "This blind old monk. What a god! He didn't even let me finish a word! I think he's the real one who doesn't know the etiquette! What's wrong with you? But you can't be so arrogant, so unsightly! What are you still doing there! I've long scoffed at you! Cough! O old abbot! Old abbot! You still listen to this blind old monk like this. I'm really angry and kill me! I'm going to test how capable you are of a blind man!" ”

Master Fa Shen thought silently in his heart, and couldn't help but think about it. I saw that his left hand secretly sent out internal strength towards Master Huiming, and at the same time his face was full of smiles
