Chapter 20: Receiving Disciples
Passing through the fields, the barren soil can only grow some high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes to barely fill the belly.
On the ridges, I saw the ragged croppers from time to time.
These can also be taken back to feed the pigs, steamed bran, or mixed with some cornmeal, and make some large cakes.
Low farmhouse, shirtless children, thin ribs visible.
In some places, you still eat Guanyin soil, and when you eat a big belly, your face turns purple, and you can't live long.
When the people of the country saw the monk tomorrow night, they would kneel down to greet them.
Walking through a bazaar, there are beggars in the dirty areas around the corners, begging for food.
......
......
The two little monks walked by, and the people in the bazaar gave way one after another, not daring to annoy them.
"Huh?"
Zhou Sheng suddenly sighed softly, and felt a cold gaze staring at him. There was a great deal of resentment in his eyes, and he longed to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
With a sweep of his thoughts, he enveloped the bazaar, and even a small fly in the garbage heap could not escape his sight.
Not far away, on the corner of the street, a squatting lazy man yawned. Wearing a dirty padded jacket with both hands on the cuffs.
There are many such people, but it is rare to have a dagger hidden in the cuff like this.
The dagger is quenched and poisoned, and some flesh and skin are cut, and they will be warped to death, and the throat will be sealed with blood.
This is the peasant uprising/rebel army, the shili who specializes in assassinating monks.
He was patiently waiting for the arrival of the two little monks, and was a very good hunter.
Zhou Sheng smiled at the corner of his mouth, and walked straight over, looking down at the squatting lazy man.
The man's heart trembled. There were large drops of sweat oozing from his forehead. He was trying to figure out where he had found a flaw.
The monks all have martial arts. In this world, there are all existences that can splash blood for five steps within a few steps, and they are first-class good hands.
Even if it is a small novice, it is also a daily consumption of medicinal food that greatly replenishes vitality, bathes the body with medicinal water, and it is not a problem to lift hundreds of catties of stones.
"It's definitely not an opponent, and it's impossible to sneak attack. Run......
Thinking of this, the man waved his sleeves, sprinkled a handful of sand, and took advantage of the efforts of the two monks to cover their eyes, and left over the wall.
There was a commotion among the surrounding people, but most of them were pretending to cover the man's escape, and the monks were unpopular in this small country.
"Senior brother, chase after it, don't let that thief escape......"
"Forget it, it doesn't make much sense. lest they be ambushed......"
"It's also ......"
After thinking about it, the intelligent monk nodded. Said lightly: "Let's go, let's go have a few drinks first, and then find a few good carriages, and you can get to Kyoto in three days......"
The time of the world is not at all proportional to the time of a great supernatural person like Zhou Sheng. In the blink of an eye, Zhou Sheng is an era, hundreds of millions of years.
......
......
"It's okay, you go to the inn first, I'll have something to make it easier......"
The intelligent monk showed a smile that everyone understands, patted Zhou Sheng's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Senior brother should be temperate, so as not to hurt his body, when he arrives in Kyoto, there are a lot of women......"
This monk thought that he was going to the land of Fireworks Willow Lane, which made Zhou Sheng quite funny.
Emotions have been removed from his mental power, and only calculation and reason remain, like a cold machine. Cultivating to zuihou, everything is removed, and only the root remains.
Preserve the principles of heaven and destroy people/desires. Although this sentence is from Confucianism, it is still okay to describe a practitioner, only the absolutely cold and rational heavenly principles exist, and desire/desire and the like have long been refined by the true fire in the stomach.
......
Zhou Sheng shook his head and didn't explain.
Dragons and ants don't have a common language, a small ant, don't bother.
Just now, between his thoughts, he found a good seedling, and he was ready to take in an apprentice, so that someone could inherit his mantle.
......
......
Although he can't be like the big shili of Buddhism, Daomen, Immortals, and Immortals now, he can't be a family of his own, but after breaking through the master, he will always have to pass on the inheritance.
In this dark shijie, only thinking and wisdom can be passed on, and forever, it is all light.
After walking a few steps, I turned around the corner and saw a group of do-gooders in front of me.
There is a fierce man inside, with an apron around his waist, but he sells steamed buns.
He's kicking and punching a child.
The boy was about seven or eight years old, and he was very thin. If it weren't for his bone age, he would look like three or four years old.
Under the child, there is also a child under the guardian, a baby girl of thirteen or four years old, who is also thin and weak.
"Tell you to steal buns again, dare to steal my Wang Laosan's buns, it's really impatient......"
Punches and kicks, the child gritted his teeth and insisted, but the tears still couldn't stop flowing.
His clothes were in tatters, sewn and sewn in many places, and they were patched up with many broken pieces.
There are traces of dog bites, as well as marks of beating with sticks.
......
......
When Zhou Sheng saw it, he couldn't help but secretly scream yes.
The child's eyebrows were glowing with wisdom and restraint, and he didn't know what he was bringing.
"This is a person with wisdom, I don't know which Venerable One is reincarnating. It should also be a Venerable Buddha, after all, it is safe to be reincarnated in your own territory. The tempering in this world should also be the tempering of the Dao mind, so that you can achieve positive results in the future."
"If my guess is correct, there should be the support of the great Buddha Sect. But now that the war is raging, these bald people are busy, so they shouldn't be able to take care of it, so I still covered up the heavens and accepted him earlier......"
Zhou Sheng thought about it, his thinking changed, and he rushed directly into the long river of time and disrupted the heavens.
Playing with heaven and minds, disrupting the future direction, just one thought. Even he can push the future now and let the present go in another direction.
But the future will always happen, no matter what, as long as he thinks about it, even if he makes a move, there is still a theorem in the future, and this cannot be changed.
It was also a chance to feel that he had a chance here, so he would come here for a visit.
......
......
Seeing the appearance of this pair of suffering brothers and sisters, Zhou Sheng always felt a little familiar. This picture seems to have been encountered before.
After thinking about it for a long time, I remembered that in that illusory dream, in Daqianbianliang, I also adopted a pair of sisters.
It seems to be surnamed Li, but where did he go after?
It's been too long to forget about it......
......
......
"Hey, don't be that thief, don't do ......"
You have to show your kind side to this apprentice, child, it's easy to coax. Help him in this most difficult time, and only then will he be faithful and serve him as his own son/son.
grabbed the man who sold buns, waved his hand and threw it out, knocking over a few counters and smashing a lot of pots and pans.
Seeing the monk, the surrounding people knelt on the ground one after another, not daring to make a noise.
Zhou Sheng stroked the child's head and said with a smile: "Xiao'er, I see that you have excellent roots and bones, and you are a good seedling for cultivation, learn Buddhism from me......
The child lifted his face, tears washing away the dirty mud on his face.
For monks, children are a little afraid. As for studying Buddhism, in his conception, it is similar to falling into the boundless hell.
"Do you have meat to eat when you study Buddhism?"
"Yes, not only meat, but also wine, everything delicious......"
The child gritted his teeth, showed a fearless spirit of sacrifice, and said fiercely: "I learn ......."
......
......
"Brother, I'm hungry ......"
The little girl who was protected by him pulled the corner of his clothes, and she was weak and pitiful.
The little belly gurgles.
Zhou Sheng haha smiled, quite satisfied, and said loudly: "Let's go, take you to dinner for the teacher." Your sister, by the way, will be my apprenticeship......"
"Master Xiexie, should I shave my head?"
"No, shave Rausch's head, I scratch my heart when I see a bald head, like a big light bulb, and light them all morning and evening......
"What are the names of the two of you, I will change them for you, so that you don't break the taboo......"
"We don't have names......" The two children bowed their heads, their young minds thinking that monks were all bad people. Now they have become bad people in order to have enough to eat, and they are condemned by their conscience.
"No, I'll take it first. The big one is called Li Xiaowen, and the small one is called Li Xiaoman......"
"Master, this seems to be a girl's name......
"No matter what you do with so much, the name is just a codename, you can't see through this, what else do you eat? If you want to eat roast chicken, just listen to me honestly......"
"Oh~~"
......
