Chapter 32 The Clay Pot Temple

"While you are in the east, I am in the west, and you have no man, and I have no wife.

When I have no wife, I am still idle, and when you have no husband, I am so lonely. ”

Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen were resting and eating under the tree, and suddenly heard someone singing obscene songs in the distance, looked up, and a Taoist with a burden in the distance walked along the mountain road, it seemed to be going up the mountain, only to see the Taoist wearing a soap towel, wearing a cloth shirt, wearing variegated silk around his waist, wearing hemp shoes on his feet, a ring knife hanging on his waist, one end of the burden is a bamboo basket with fresh fish and cooked meat wrapped in lotus leaves, and the other end is a wine jar.

"Is this the Clay Pot Temple?"

Sun Lei suddenly remembered that Lu Zhishen's next stop after leaving Peach Blossom Village was the Clay Pot Temple, Flying Yaksha Qiu Xiaoyi and Pig Iron Buddha Cui Daocheng, isn't this person dressed in front of him exactly Flying Yaksha Qiu Xiaoyi.

"It's not like a Taoist priest."

Sun Lei looked at the Taoist priest who was walking slowly and said to Lu Zhishen.

"How can a monk sing such a lewd song?"

Lu Zhishen also looked at the Taoist priest who appeared in the distance, although the beliefs of Buddhism and Taoism are different, but the mutual influence of Buddhism and Taoism in Middle Earth is relatively deep, both pay attention to pure heart and few desires, although the Taoist taboo is less and looser, but it will not sing such obscene words in broad daylight.

Qiu Xiaoyi saw Lu Zhishen, Sun Lei, and the old woman resting under the big tree, and he ignored them directly, and then looked at the horses and donkeys, especially the bulging packages on the horseback, Qiu Xiaoyi was overjoyed, there must be a lot of money in it.

However, looking at Lu Zhishen's five big and three rough appearance, Qiu Xiaoyi could only suppress the greed in his heart, this fat monk may not be able to fight alone.

Qiu Xiaoyi didn't sing that little song, straightened his waist, and walked to the big tree where Lu Zhishen and Sun Lei were with his burden.

"I wonder where the master is going?"

Qiu Xiaoyi put down his burden and asked Lu Zhishen with a smile.

"The Sprinkle family is going to Yan'an Mansion!"

Although Lu Zhishen didn't have a good impression of Qiu Xiaoyi because of the obscene words just now, he still opened his mouth to answer.

"Yan'an Mansion, then this is a long way!"

Qiu Xiaoyi pretended to be surprised and pointed to the West and said.

"You have to cross this Taihang Mountain, pass through Taiyuan Mansion, and cross Luliang Mountain and then cross the Yellow River to get there."

"The Sprinkler knows the way!"

Lu Zhishen was angry when he saw that Qiu Xiaoyi looked like he was scaring outsiders, he was a "cheap envoy from the five roads in Kansai"! Do you still need to be taught about the situation on this Kansai Road?

"Master, I am afraid that you will not be able to walk through this red pine forest today, this red pine forest is very wide, it is scattered with branches, and thousands of barefoot old dragons are coiled; The strange shadow is uneven, and there are thousands of red-scaled pythons. From a distance, it looks like a judge's beard, and up close, it looks like a devil's hair. The master, who is carrying the old and the young, is past noon today, and it is difficult to walk through it before dark. ”

Qiu Xiaoyi saw Lu Zhishen's fierce face, and he didn't dare to say anything about the long distance of Yan'an Mansion, so he could only point to the red pine forest in the distance and say something.

"And what do you mean?"

Sun Lei asked.

"There is a big monastery on this mountain, it is a permanent residence of the ten directions, the past monks and passers-by can spend the night, the trail is also there to spend the night, if a few people are willing, it is better to go and rest for the night, tomorrow morning, should be able to walk out of the pine forest before dark."

Qiu Xiaoyi said to Lu Zhishen and Sun Lei with a smile, and pointed to the temple that was faintly visible not far away, but it was blocked by trees and could not be seen clearly.

"There's still such a place, quickly lead me to wait."

Sun Lei didn't mean to be polite at all, he stood up and helped the old woman up, looking like he was going to spend the night.

"Little brother, please, I'll go to the mountains first."

Qiu Xiaoyi looked at the old woman and knew that these people couldn't go fast, so he took the first step to carry the burden up the mountain, and he was secretly happy that he had met a raw egg who had never gone out today.

"Brother, this Taoist priest doesn't look like a good person, aren't you afraid of meeting bad people when you go up the mountain like this?"

Lu Zhishen saw that the Taoist priest was walking away, so he asked Sun Lei, Sun Lei was very cautious along the way, why did he follow the gangster so recklessly today.

"You also know it's a villain? Anyway, you used to be a magistrate, isn't it your duty to eliminate violence and uphold justice? You don't kill the gangsters when you see them? ”

Sun Lei helped the old woman to get on the donkey, and then led the horse to go up the mountain.

"The Sprinkle family is now a monk, and the monk must be merciful and can't kill!"

Lu Zhishen made a Buddhist salute, looking kind and kind, pulling the reins of the horse to prevent Sun Lei from leaving,

"That's it! Don't pretend to be a calf, Zhou Tong's body is still in the county office! It's really cold, you pretend to be up before he closes his eyes, be careful that he jumps up and asks for your life. ”

Sun Lei couldn't help but laugh when he saw Lu Zhishen's fake appearance, he just had a human life on his hand, and he couldn't kill again.

"That's because he did a lot of evil, and the Sprinkle family can't see these people who bully women! That's slaying demons and destroying demons, and the Buddha won't blame it! ”

Lu Zhishen returned to normal at this time, patting his chest and pretending to be a hero, there is no hard requirement for whether this can kill people, it is not wrong to eliminate evil and do good, it is reasonable to see the Buddha.

"How do you know that man isn't a demon? That Taoist priest has gone away, and if you don't catch up, you won't have a chance to kill the demons! ”

Sun Lei pointed to Qiu Xiaoyi, who had disappeared at the end of the road, I am afraid that he had already gone back to inform his accomplices that the pig iron Buddha Cui Dao had been completed.

"What is the demon slaying demon, there is a temple, where is the demon from?"

Lu Zhishen didn't stop him anymore, and followed with a Zen staff.

After walking for about half an hour, hearing the sound of the bell blown by the wind, Sun Lei finally saw the mountain gate of the temple, and there was a plaque on the broken mountain gate, which read "The Temple of Clay Pots".

"Master Lu, you see, the temple of crockpots will not be a place to simmer soup, I like this crockpot soup very much, the soup simmered by the cook in Mrs. Liu's house is good, but it's a pity that I don't know when I can drink such a delicious soup when I leave."

Sun Lei looked at the name of the temple and slammed his mouth and said, when he saw the word crockpot, he was unconsciously hungry, and remembered the skill of Mrs. Liu's cook.

"I think you also stayed in Wenshu Monastery for a month, why don't you understand any Buddhism? The crockpot is hollow, which means that the four are empty! It's not a temple that simmers crockpot soup! ”

Lu Zhishen corrected Sun Lei's misunderstanding, the clay pot temple is not a temple for simmering clay pot soup, although he is still doing his own thing before he became a monk in Wenshu Monastery, but he has some Buddhist principles in his heart and understands some Buddhist mysteries.

"I don't think it's like it, in the mountains where there is no village in front of the village and no shop in the back, who is simmering soup to drink, and this temple, you look at this temple, what has become of this, the broken temple is almost the same!"

Sun Lei pointed to the temple with some disgust from the outside, the temple walls have collapsed, they are crawling with messy vines, the temples and bell towers have also collapsed, the ground outside the temple is full of moss and weeds, it doesn't look like a place where people live at all, and it doesn't look like a temple, the monks pay attention to the faΓ§ade, and the temple has always been cleaned spotlessly, saying that it is to be swept often to sweep away the dust in the heart.

"That Taoist priest really lied, where is this Shifang permanent residence, it is clearly a deserted temple, I don't know which people are in the abbot, and the huge temple is not easy to operate, and it ends up like this!"

Lu Zhishen looked at the dilapidated temple and was also a little annoyed, the temple also needs to be managed well, so that there will be pilgrims and Tan Yue to worship, and the incense can be prosperous.
