Chapter 009: Sitting on the ground and participating in meditation gives birth to lotus
Coming to this Lantuo Temple, there is only one thing that can make Zhang Shaoyang interested, and that is to win or lose with this monk.
The year before last, the two of them took stones on the Lantuo River in the temple to float, and almost demolished the stone dome on a temple, both of them were bullish tempers, and no one was convinced until the arm could not be raised, and finally the monk threw a little farther than Zhang Shaoyang to win, for this, Zhang Shaoyang did not go to Lantuo Temple for a year.
Last year, Zhang Shaoyang came prepared, the two of them didn't do anything, they actually hid in the toilet and took out the thing under the crotch to compare the size? That's it, the two of them didn't accept anyone, and found an idiot to judge, and finally Zhang Shaoyang won by a narrow margin.
This year, I really don't know what these two guys are going to make a name for themselves!
Every time the idea was Zhang Shaoyang's idea, the monk just laughed on the side, Zhang Shaoyang thought for a long time, and suddenly said excitedly: "There is." ”
"The cold pool in the temple should have formed a layer of ice in this deep winter, how about we have a big game today?"
Idiots feel that things are not simple for no reason!
"This time, let's compete with each other to see who has the better stamina, let's go to the ice and meditate to see who can endure it for a long time, and see who has the first ass to freeze and bloom. Zhang Shaoyang smiled evilly, although he was afraid of the cold, but he was wearing a mink coat, and there was a pair of fine cotton pants shipped from Tubo underneath, and the monk only had a thin monk's robe, so he had a better chance of winning.
The idiot touched his ass for no reason!
The monk did not refuse, the two of them really walked in the direction of the cold pool, and when they got closer, the pool water was indeed covered with a thick layer of ice, smooth as a mirror, just like a spar in the mountains.
Zhang Shaoyang took the lead and sat on it without saying a word, the monk was not lazy, and also found a place to sit down.
It didn't take long for Zhang Shaoyang to feel that he couldn't sit still, this cold pool is extraordinary, I used to hear idiots say that this pool of water is not stagnant water, there is a bottomless channel at the bottom of the pool, it is said to be connected to the Yellow Spring of the Difu, so it is born cold, it is also cold in summer, not to mention this cold winter wax moon.
After a few breaths, Zhang Shaoyang was already grinning, but the monk on the other side simply folded his hands together, breathed evenly, and muttered in his mouth that he didn't know which Buddhist classic, and his speech speed was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, as if he was singing.
After about half a pillar of incense, Zhang Shaoyang's face turned blue, and he couldn't help it after all, he jumped up, and there was a visible cold air under his buttocks, which made the idiot laugh.
Zhang Shaoyang let out a breath of white air in his mouth, and his mouth trembled and said that he couldn't understand: "It's really... See... Hell yes. ”
The monk is still in the meditation, and what makes Zhang Shaoyang even more shocked is that at this moment, a layer of ice has formed under the monk's buttocks, but this ice is not attached to the monk, but a circle of ice spikes has formed around him.
After a whole stick of incense, the monk finally opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was to look at the position where Zhang Shaoyang was sitting just now, and saw that Zhang Shaoyang was no longer in that position, so he got up with confidence, and the circle of ice lotus beside him instantly dispersed, and the ice ballast was scattered all over the ground.
The monk seemed to feel something, just inexplicably entered a kind of ethereal realm, coupled with his oral recitation of the Prajna Heart Sutra, in a trance, he actually felt that all things in the heavens have Buddha nature, although it was only for a moment, but it made him untie a knot that he had not untied for many years.
"It's better to lose to you once, and when I go back, think about how I can win you next time. Zhang Shaoyang sighed, full of unwillingness.
The monk smiled and didn't answer, but his heart was clear, but it seemed that there was a bigger problem that made it difficult for him to understand, and it seemed that he could only ask the master!
"Monk, you said that you are a monk, why are you so competitive, you can't let me win once?" Zhang Shaoyang said angrily.
"Master said that monks are also human beings, so naturally they also have all kinds of miscellaneous thoughts such as greed, hatred, and ignorance, and it is also a rare practice to appreciate these miscellaneous thoughts. ”
"Yes, no matter what you say, I'd better go down the mountain. Zhang Shaoyang didn't argue, it has been up the mountain for a while, and it's time to go down.
The monk took the lead in blocking Zhang Shaoyang, and put his hands together to give a slight salute: "Donor, my master wants to see you." ”
Zhang Shaoyang frowned: "That big monk, why didn't he come by himself if he wanted to see me, such a big show?"
"Master has been plagued by illness in recent years, and my heart is weak, so I asked me to come to you. A look of worry appeared on the monk's face.
Zhang Shaoyang did not have the intention of brushing the monk, under the leadership of the monk, the three of them embarked on a path, the mountain behind the Lantuo Temple is known as the hump eighty, the stream is hundreds, the cold pool is three thousand pools, walking on the back mountain, sometimes you can see the rare beasts hidden in the mountains, not far away from the thousand-year-old temple, after a while there are a few melodious bells, it is like the holy land of the fairy family.
I didn't go far, and I saw a smooth stone wall five or six zhang high, and a small stream of water hung down from the top of the stone wall, and fell on the rock below, splashing in all directions, and for many years, a small puddle of water a few inches deep was also dripping out of the rock.
The monk walked here, looked at the stream of water that was no thicker than his thumb, and said to himself, "Why is it a lot thinner." ”
There is a stone cave on the side of the stone wall, which looks like a dead wood stake grows in it.
Zhang Shaoyang couldn't have imagined that the tall and strong monk had become the old guy in front of him, his spirit was withered, like rotten wood, and what made Zhang Shaoyang even more unbelievable was that the monk who was dressed in a robe and was invited by his father all the way to the VIP seat now has hair like weeds on his head.
"Donor, you're here!" Although the old monk's face was pale, his eyes were extraordinarily bright, staring at Zhang Shaoyang and laughing, making Zhang Shaoyang shudder.
"How do you ......?"
"Hehe, the old man has participated in a dead Zen, if it is not penetrated, it is like that line of beads, one day suddenly broke the line, I will also finish this red dust 25,000 days, if it is penetrated, maybe it can also be dead wood in a spring. The old monk laughed, not caring about his state.
Zhang Shaoyang glanced at the thin stream of water and was stunned, and the old monk on the other side continued: "I think when I went to your house, I thought that you were the most wise, but it's a pity that your Zen is not in the temple, hehehe." ”
When the old monk said that he was happy, his face was a lot ruddy, compared to the little monk's glance, this old monk talked freely.
"Thanks to the master who raised his noble hand back then, he didn't get me to this Lantuo Mountain to chant and worship the Buddha!" Zhang Shaoyang said angrily.
"Hehehe!" the old monk laughed heartily, but his panting voice was a little rougher, as if he was about to lose his breath.
"However, the donor and my Lantuo Temple, after all, still have some fate, otherwise they would not have offered a valuable incense money every year over the years. ”
