Volume 2 The Chosen Devotional Chapter 87 Interesting Facts about the Tea House (II)
After sunset, Dongmen Town is not bustling at all, but there are many more buyers on the street.
Located in the corner, the tea shop is already an old shop, and this tea shop has always existed not because of how good the tea in the store is, but simply because the owner of the tea shop is not afraid of losses.
The three-story corner building of the tea shop is the property of the proprietor, and the opening of this tea shop is just a matter of interest, and the money earned every year is only enough to feed a few guys in the shop. At the end of each year, when the account is reported, if the proprietor hears that the business of the tea shop has broken even this year, he will happily wrap a few red envelopes.
At this time, there were only three tables of guests on the second floor in the teahouse, one table was a pair of Taoist couples, the other table was a handsome little brother with sword eyebrows, and the last table was a strange combination of a Taoist priest and a monk.
This handsome little brother is naturally Hao Yun, at this time, like the Taoist couple, he listened to the monk among the two with his ears sideways: "Zhu Xin, when will your Taoist temple still take over the business of marriage?"
Zhu Xin is the original name of the Taoist priest, but at this time he has been renamed the Taoist name for many years, and he was also a little in a trance when he heard his name in the red dust for a while: "Return to zero, you have a Dharma name, and I also have my Dao name, the original name of Zhu Xin has not been called for many years, you can call me Xiaren Daoren." ”
The monk recited a Buddha name in his mouth, and then asked, "It's not where the word Xia Ren came from." ”
"On the day I entered the door, the sky was full of colorful clouds, so I took this Xia word. My master wanted me to be kind to others, so I had this word for benevolence. Just now, you asked me why people are still married in the Daomen, but in recent years, the incense in the temple has not been prosperous, so I can only do some good things to subsidize it. However, we don't accept everything, there are requirements. Xia Ren explained.
The man picked up the tea bowl in front of him and took a sip of tea, as if he had thought of something again, and then said to the monk: "Speaking of which, in the recent past, there is another happy event in the temple, and you still know the person in this happy event, that is, the Song Shi when we practiced together in the intermediate immortal cultivation academy. I don't know if you're interested in going to the ceremony. ”
The Zero Daoist who was drinking tea swallowed a large sip of tea, as if he was shocked by the Taoist priest's suggestion: "I'm a monk, so this kind of occasion is not appropriate, right?"
"What does it matter, just look at it from a distance. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I really want to invite you to visit the temple. By the way, the food in my temple is famous, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to take this happy event. ”
The female cultivator on the side was already holding back a smile, what were these two talking about?
When the monk heard the meal, it seemed to be coming. Then he asked, "I don't know, what are the famous dishes in your temple?"
"The most famous thing in our temple is white meat, the meat is made of fine pork belly, and the dipping sauce is also our own unique recipe......
Before the Taoist priest could finish speaking, the monk interrupted, "We who serve the Buddha, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to eat meat, right?
Xia Ren Daoren slapped his thigh and said, "I just want you to be a classmate from the past, but I forgot about this important matter." In addition to the fasting and Jiao activities in our temple, it is generally forbidden to abstain from meat and hard drinking, and the matter of cultivating the Tao is just to seek purity of heart. Then you won't eat meat, and our bibimbap is also a must, you should try it. ”
The monk sighed and said, "Since you are so gracious, I can't refuse, and I will definitely visit the temple when the time comes." However, I think since you don't abstain from meat in the temple, can you marry yourself?"
"Well, my dad doesn't have any requirements for me, it all depends on my own liking. ”
"I don't know what Father Venerable is in the temple?" asked Monk Zero.
"I'm a master, I'm my father... The temple is our family's, and I never talked about it with my classmates back then, and you are the third to know about it. By the way, can you bring the wooden fish with you then?" said Daoist Xiaren, pointing to the wooden fish on the table.
"I've been by my side since I started this wooden fish, but I don't know what you mean by that?"
"That's right, our temple is quieter, and there is no etiquette. I thought maybe you could knock it with this wooden fish then..."
I'm Nima... It's too wild.
Hearing this, Hao Yun hurriedly turned his face outward, just afraid that he was smiling too loudly.
"Uh... This is not appropriate. How can we, who serve the Buddha, do such things with wooden fish? If I do, the Buddha is afraid that he will crush my head. Monk Zero said solemnly.
"That's what I thought, I was rude. Having said that, I think when we were in the Immortal Cultivation Academy, we were very good at playing, do you remember sneaking out of the Immortal Mansion to have fun everywhere?"
Xiaren Daoren's words seemed to evoke some past memories of Monk Zero, and he said with a little hazy eyes: "That's naturally remembered, I think we played all the places around Xianfu that we could play, and I was really ashamed to think that we had failed such a right green girl back then." ”
"Perhaps, at this time, there is a beautiful woman in your heart that makes you uneasy?" asked Kasuminto tentatively.
"Naturally not!" Monk Zero's eyes returned to clarity: "It's just that sometimes I think our host has really gone too far, and I don't let those girls under the mountain come to see me, even my mother and my sister won't let me see me." Even my grandmother wouldn't let me see it. ”
"Do you regret becoming a monk?"
"Naturally, I have been rooted in the mountains since I became a monk, serving the Buddha every day, and there is nothing in the world that can fascinate me anymore. I feel that life is like this, and it is a great blessing. I wonder if you have ever regretted it after you entered the Dao Gate?"
"Among the Daomen, the profound knowledge is as vast as the sea of stars, I travel in it every day, I can't think about it, why regret it?" said Xiaren Daoren categorically.
Just as the two were talking, footsteps came from the staircase.
At first, the two didn't care, but they just thought it was a little girl who came up to add tea.
But when Monk Gui Zero noticed that there was something wrong with Xia Ren Daoren's eyes, he also turned his head to look behind him.
beauty
Extremely beautiful
Beauty is incomprehensible
Monk Zero felt that his barren language was completely insufficient to describe the beauty of the person in front of him.
The beauty of the female cultivator in front of him was like a heavy punch that hit him in the heart, temporarily knocking out a ravine in his devout heart for the Buddha.
The eyes of the two followed the pink-clothed nun until the nun sat down and the two realized that there was more than one person. Opposite the nun sat down one of her friends, the nun in green.
Between the four of them, there was an empty table.
Hao Yun also looked at the pink-clothed nun for a while at first, but later found that it didn't seem to be as interesting as this Taoist priest and monk.
The little guy trotted up to entertain the guests, and kept saying that he was not welcome.
Taoist Xiaren and Monk Gui Zero began to drink tea non-stop, looking at the pink-clothed nun while drinking, as if the nun in front of her was the pastry on the plate - beautiful and delicious.
The two of them unconsciously turned their bodies to the pink-clothed nun.
The two people who had just sat down on one side didn't pay attention to the eager eyes on the side, and after thinking about the little guy's instructions, they chatted casually.
"I've been so lonely lately... Do you think which male cultivator in our Immortal Mansion is better?" asked the pink-clothed female cultivator with some resentment.
In the shocked gaze of Hao Yun and the Taoist companions on the side, Daoist Xiaren and Monk Gui Zero picked up the tea tray in front of them, moved to the table on the side, and leaned against the pink-clothed nun.
"You know, I actually like those men who have very broad shoulders, I think they make me feel very safe!" said the woman in pink again.
The Taoist priest and the monk began to shrug their shoulders unnaturally, and turned towards the pink-clothed nun without a trace.
What about no longer being attached to the world?
"I'm here to get married, so it's even better if he has some family background!"
"Layman, maybe there's something I forgot to tell you. Monk Zero suddenly raised the volume of his speech and said to Xia Ren Daoren: "There is a temple on the mountain that is about to be sold to people who are destined, and the price of 100,000 high-grade yuan crystals should be more fair." ”
Xiaren Daoren, who was sitting opposite, was not to be outdone: "We are going to take down all the nearby temples and make them into chains in the future." ”
"Senior sister, we can't drink tea. The green-clothed nun suddenly said: "There is news from the Zimu Spirit Rune, it should be that the Immortal Mansion has summoned us back." Xiao Er, pack the tea for us. ”
The two got up and left in a hurry, and the Taoist priest and the monk didn't know what to say for a while.
Checked the teapot in front of him, the tea in the pot was dry, and Hao Yun didn't want to drink another pot, so he put Yuanjing on the table and got up to leave.
Walking out of the tea shop, Hao Yun took a deep breath, the air was filled with all kinds of smells, in Hao Yun's opinion, this was the fireworks in the world.
The life in the cave is too ordinary, and I still can't get used to this kind of life in my two lives.
Behind Hao Yun, the Taoist priest and the monk also walked out, and the two saluted each other and then turned their heads and left.
Looking at the two people who were gradually moving away, Hao Yun had to sigh that fate was really a bit mysterious.
Hao Yun, who was about to leave, suddenly saw a branch of the Cloud Pavilion on the side, and his heart moved and he raised his legs and walked in.
This branch library is dedicated to selling clothes, compared to the other businesses of the Cloud Pavilion, this piece of the Cloud Pavilion does not seem to spend much effort to operate, compared to other well-known businesses, the monk's uniforms of the Cloud Pavilion can only be described as decent.
But fortunately, it has also found its own target customers, and has always taken the route of mass customization. Using the resources of the Cloud Pavilion and the various immortal cultivation schools, the customized monk robes in this immortal mansion alone are already enough to make a profit.
After chatting with the shopkeeper for a few words, Hao Yun found that he couldn't get the information he wanted, and it seemed that some of the Cloud Pavilions could only know the news within their authority.
