Chapter 28: The impatient Hongichi
Chapter 28
Hearing Hui Ke's words, all the people surrounding Hongyi immediately dispersed.
The bustling place immediately became quiet.
Watching everyone disperse, Hui Ke looked at Hongyi, then at Shi Yao and Yun Shixuan, and didn't say anything, just clasped his hands slightly, and then turned to leave.
Seeing Hui Ke leaving, Hongyi greeted Shi Yao and Yun Shixuan again, and then left as well.
He knew that he had left Hanshan Temple for so long without permission this time, and Senior Brother must have been very angry. Moreover, he also happened to have something to ask him clearly.
came to the place where Hui Ke usually recites sutras and recites Buddha, and Hongyi really found Hui Ke here.
"Senior brother."
Hongyi sat cross-legged on the futon beside Hui Ke. Look at the Buddha statue in front of you with folded hands.
"Come back, come back, come back and come to me for what? The master once said that there is nothing important for you not to go down the mountain at will, have you forgotten it? ”
Hui Ke closed his eyes, the Buddhist beads in his hand kept turning, and his tone of voice was as calm as ever, it could be seen that this was a habit of his, and it had nothing to do with his state of mind.
"Senior brother, I have never understood why you and the master did not allow me to go down the mountain? You keep telling me to know how to let go, but if I don't go out to experience and have nothing to experience, what should I let go? ”
Hongyi sat beside Hui Ke, and the smile on his face disappeared as he spoke. It's something he's never figured out.
He clearly remembered that his master often took his senior brother out to practice, but why couldn't he.
"No is no can't, so many whys."
Hearing Hongyi's words, Hui Ke was a little impatient. Even his calm tone made a slight wave.
"Senior brother, every time I ask you, you answer me like this. You and your master often say that everything has a cause and effect, but why don't you let me go down the mountain, I have to let me know why. I want to know the cause. ”
The emotion in Hongyi's tone was also with a hint of eagerness, since he was fourteen years old, the master did not allow him to go down the mountain, and later, after the death of the master, the senior brother was like this again, so many years have passed, and every time he wants to go down the mountain, he can only go out secretly.
Every time I come back, my brother gets angry. But he just couldn't figure out why. Everyone in the temple can go out and practice in the open, but he can't.
Hearing the eagerness in Hongyi's tone, Hui Ke slowly opened his eyes.
In fact, he was also thinking about whether it was good or bad for the master's prophecy to hide from Hongichi like this.
Hui Ke tilted his head and glanced at the junior brother who was usually warm as the wind, but was so impatient at the moment. He sighed softly.
Perhaps, telling him is not necessarily a bad thing, or perhaps, not letting him know is not necessarily a good thing, and some things that should happen will happen eventually.
And the prophecy that the master said is not necessarily true. After all, so many years have passed, and Hongyi has gone down the mountain more than once without permission, but after all, the thing predicted by the master has not happened.
Although the things predicted by their master in his life eventually happened, he still didn't believe in Hongyi's prophecy.
"Senior brother, why are you sighing? Why don't you tell me why? I wonder why. ”
Seeing Hui Ke sighing, Hongyi immediately asked, since he was a child, his heart has never been so impatient as it is today.
"Ugh." Hearing Hongyi's words and feeling his eagerness, Hui Ke sighed again.
"You really want to know why?" Hui Ke looked at Hongyi again and confirmed to him.
