Chapter 30: The Adulterous Monk (Part II)
When Yu Xiu heard this, his face remained unchanged, and he saw him make another move, and then stepped forward and held the monk's hand.
"Xiao Ke admires the Buddhism of your temple, and hopes that the master will open the door of convenience and let Xiao Ke enter the temple. ”
The monk was stunned, he touched the coin in his hand, looked at it again, and found that it was three brass coins, one worth a hundred black iron coins.
The monk's eyes rolled, and he suddenly realized, and then looked at Yu Xiu teasingly, and whispered: "You kid, just fake, scared a certain family's heart." ”
The monk put the brass money in his sleeve and looked back at the novices: "I don't know that the cheap skin that spread out actually attracted you to 'place an order', don't make a noise." ”
When Yu Xiu heard him speak, he felt a little inexplicable, knowing that the other party had misunderstood something, he resignedly said: "No, no, don't worry, master." ”
"Follow me. The monk puffed up his chest and walked towards the temple with his head held high. Yu Xiu led the horse and hurried to follow.
Entering the temple, Yu Xiu found that it was properly arranged, and at first glance, he thought he had entered the garden of a large family.
The middle of the temple is paved with cobblestones for people to step on, which is extremely comfortable. From time to time, monks walked by with their heads bowed, constantly sprinkling water to prevent dust.
The flowers and plants are even more surprising, and there are still blooming ones near winter, which is very rare. At the same time, the Sanskrit sound in the temple is faint, and it seems that there are monks chanting the Buddha's name, which makes people feel relieved.
The thin horse walked in and snorted a few times, attracting the sideways glances of the monks passing by, and Yu Xiu confessed again and again.
Finally walked to the depths of the temple, and the monk who guided Yu Xiu pointed to a row of rooms and said, "There are very many rules here, and you must know a thing or two." ”
Before he finished speaking, Yu Xiu handed over another piece of money and whispered, "Please ask the master to give me some more guidance, so as not to collide with Xiaoke." ”
The monk touched the money in his hand, although there was only one, but no matter how small the mosquito was, it was still meat, so he said:
"All pilgrims who come to the temple to worship the Bodhisattva, men and women must be separated, each living in a single room, and the next day after bathing and burning incense, they can worship the Bodhisattva, otherwise they will cause disaster because of uncleanness......
After listening to this, Yu Xiu grasped the key point and asked in a low voice: "Is it true that men and women have to be separated?"
The monk laughed a few times and replied, "Yes, there is a difference between men and women, and this temple has specially renovated two residences, called 'men's room' and 'women's room', respectively for pilgrims to live temporarily. He pointed to the front, "You go to the front and find a room to live in, and the horse will lead you to the backyard, and someone will take care of it for you." ”
After saying that, the monk seemed to remember something, so he was about to go back, and he specially explained to Yu Xiu and said: "A hundred steps to the east is where the female layman temporarily lives." ”
He lowered his voice: "Remember, you must not go to the women's room during the day, so you must avoid it." If you let the above know, you and I won't be able to please you!"
"Thank you for the master's teachings!" Yu Xiu hurriedly replied, indicating that he understood.
When the other party walked away, he led the horse to the backyard and handed it to a few thin old monks, and then walked back to the row house, while observing the situation in the temple, he chose a room, and finally chose a corner one.
"The incense here is good, and there is one person living in every two rooms. Yu Xiu looked at the bamboo forest in the east again, imagining the situation in the women's room, he shook his head: "These pilgrims who come to the door are also bold and dare to leave their daughter-in-law here alone!"
Yu Xiu didn't know, Nanren Temple is quite famous, even the county order master has brought his wife and concubine, and the plaque on the gate in front of the temple is the title of the county order. Therefore, in the eyes of others, this is a pure place, and no one thinks about pickling things.
Moreover, the people who come and go here are all believers, and if they ask for the Bodhisattva, naturally they will do whatever the monks say.
No, before Yu Xiu walked into the room, the smell of incense came from the other single rooms, obviously someone was bathing in incense, recuperating in the valley, and carefully preparing for tomorrow's worship.
When Yu Xiu walked into the room, a few bald heads came and sent tea, incense burners, hot water, and flower petals...... Not like a practicing monk, but more like a guy in an inn, respectful and well-served.
Yu Xiu was using their services, compared with the few days he had spent in Yizhuang before, he suddenly felt that he was living a good life now, and said in his heart: "No wonder the incense here is vigorous, and the monk's service is comparable to the Qinglou, and he doesn't charge money!" Although he has not been to the Qinglou, it does not prevent him from comparing the Qinglou in the book with here.
When night falls, the temple is lit with lights, and it is very prosperous when you look through the room. At the same time, the scent of sandalwood wafts in the air, making people feel calm.
Several big bells rang and echoed throughout the temple, announcing that night was falling in the temple and that pilgrims were not allowed to go out at will.
After the bell rang, there were monks who came to the door room by room, and specially explained that they could not go out at night, so as not to collide with the Bodhisattva.
Yu Xiu was explained, and he was secretly suspicious in his heart. The previous monk did not let him not go out at night, but warned him not to wander around during the day.
However, this rule in the temple is just right for Yu Xiu, and not being able to go out at will means that no one will disturb him.
He hung a wooden sign outside the door, waited in the room for a few more moments, and instead of lying on the bed, he hid under the bed and closed his eyes.
Escaping from the Yin God, Yu Xiu thought to himself: "There should be no danger here, but the time to be out of the body should not be too long, so as not to change." ”
After thinking about it for a while, and finding that nothing was missing, the Yin God of Yu Xiu crashed out of the portal and appeared in the temple.
The temple was quite clean at night, and Yu Xiu suddenly wandered around, and before he could take a few steps, he heard the sound of low footsteps walking on the road.
At the same time, someone whispered: "Hurry, hurry! Master Liu in the fourth room can't wait, you two hurry over." ”
Yu Xiu hurriedly ran to the place where the voice sounded, and found a monk carrying a lantern, followed by two little novices, who were fifteen or sixteen years old, also with red lips and white teeth.
Novice whispered back, "Yes, yes." ”
Seeing this, Yu Xiu raised his eyebrows and simply followed them, until he saw the lantern monk open a certain room and send the two little novices inside. And the location of this room is the men's room where the male pilgrims live.
Yu Xiu remembered the timid appearance of the two novices, and the faint fragrance of flowers and plants on his body, he didn't need to go into the room to peep inside, he knew what would happen inside.
Yu Xiu's heart was cold, and he saw the monk with the lantern walking away and laughed lewdly a few times,
Rushed to the women's room. Yu Xiu didn't follow this time, but stayed in the men's room to see if the same situation would happen.
Sure enough, another novice walked into a certain room and never came out for a long time. However, not all male pilgrims will be treated this way.
Yu Xiu put his mind at ease, "It should have been arranged in advance." He thought for a moment, and walked towards the women's room.
There is no need to detour, Yu Xiu's yin god directly passes through the bamboo forest and the wall, and walks into the women's room.
The layout of the women's room is different from that of the men's room, but the scope is larger, and the rooms are not arranged in several rows together, but are located separately, all separated by distances, and plants and trees are planted in the middle.
Yu Xiu walked in here, and the Yin God was blocked by a room, so he simply walked forward, ready to walk through the room. But as soon as he entered the room, he heard the voices of men and women inside, and he was impatient.
Yu Xiu was a little stunned when he heard the words "Mrs. Liu", he stepped forward to take a look, and really found the monk with the lantern before,
Looking at the situation in the women's room, and then thinking of the situation in the men's room, Yu Xiu suddenly remembered a sentence: After eating, the upper house will eat the next home.
In Nanruo Temple, this sentence became: After eating, the lord eats the lady.
