Chapter Ninety-Five: The Scholar and the Monk
After Ah Er cleaned up the courtyard and the east meditation room, Li Gongfu and the Yang brothers each chose one and moved in. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info As for the daily life utensils, they will not lack their respective storage magic weapons.
After their respective placements were completed, the four of them were about to take out a few small dishes that Bai Suzhen had made for them and have a few drinks, when they suddenly found that someone was coming from Lanruo Temple. At this time, a round of red sun has been hidden behind the West Mountain, but I don't know who has this Yaxing to such a remote ancient temple.
"Dare to ask if anyone is there in the temple?" a man's voice came from outside the door. This person may have seen the traces of the freshly cleaned up inside from the open door, which is why he asked.
Li Gongfu and Ah Er snorted softly at the same time, and they both recognized the identity of the person from the voice. But what they think in their hearts is different.
Ah Er thought, "Why is he here too?"
Li Gongfu thought: "He really came." ”
At the same time as he was thinking in his heart, Li Gongfu had already stood up, walked to the eaves of the eaves of the eaves meditation room and said with a smile: "It's Ning Caichen and Brother Ning outside, please come in, Li Gongfu of Qiantang is here." ”
"Brother Li is here, there is fate, there is really fate!" With these surprised and happy words, Ning Caichen, who was dressed in a green shirt and carrying a bamboo basket, stepped into the door.
Ah Er hurriedly stepped forward, diligently removed the bamboo basket on Ning Caichen's back and put it in his hand, and said with a smile: "Ning Xianggong, the little Ah Er is also here with the master." ”
Ning Caichen smiled while rubbing his somewhat sour shoulders: "Following Brother Li, you reckless man is also out of the picture." By the way, why haven't you changed your name to 'Ah Da'?"
Hearing this, the smile on Ah Er's face immediately froze, and an unforgettable scene suddenly came to mind.
It is said that one day, Li Gongfu couldn't bear Ah Er's chatter, so he released Ah Da, the Yaksha Heavenly King who had become more and more powerful in the blood pool, as he wished, and asked the two of them to have a competition.
Ah Da has always been among the Yaksha tribe, and in his heart except for the mother god and the father god, he is the greatest. Now a pig dragon actually wants to climb on his head, and even wants to take away the name given to him by the mother goddess, it is really "tolerable or unbearable".
Without saying a word, he punched Ah Er with three punches to show his original form, and then grabbed his tail unrelentingly, beating him from head to tail and tail to head for two rounds.
If it weren't for the fact that he always kept in mind that this guy was still a servant of the Father, and left a little bit of proportion under his fist, Ah Er's bones would not have been intact.
After suffering this setback, especially after listening to Xu Biao and Xu Bao quietly tell him that the more than 300 members of the Yaksha clan were all under the master's hands, Ah Er knew how valuable his name was only under "Ah Da". I also figured out that there was such a group of yaksha who could form a small army, and that my strength was really dispensable for the master, so I gradually put my mind on learning to do housework.
Now that he heard Ning Caichen mention this sad past, Ah Er had to talk about him left and right, and prevaricated indiscriminately.
Ning Caichen came forward to greet Li Gongfu first, and after greeting him, he asked: "The younger brother only knows that after being the champion of Hanwen High School, he was released to Jinhua County to be the county magistrate, but Brother Li came to visit him?"
Li Gongfu shook his head and said, "I have other things to do in Jinhua, but it's not that I have turned to visit Hanwen. Brother Ning, why are you here?"
Ning Caichen sighed: "After the death of his father, the younger brother could not take the exam because of the mourning period, so he could only serve his mother at home. Recently, I have been sick, and my family's expenses are a little stretched. Jiaci remembered that there was a debt released by his late father a few years ago in Jinhua County, so he sent his younger brother to recover it to perfunctory the family. Because it was getting late today, the younger brother wanted to save a few pennies to live in the hotel, and happened to see that there was an ancient temple here, so he wanted to come and spend the night, and then enter the city tomorrow to ask for the debt. ”
This person is quite upright and open-minded, and he doesn't see loss when he can't take the exam because of his father's funeral, and he doesn't see frustration when he mentions the embarrassment of his family.
Everyone set up a table on the edge of the lotus pond, Li Gongfu and Ning Caichen sat opposite each other, the Yang brothers accompanied each other left and right, and Ah Er poured wine and cloth dishes for everyone around the table. Everyone talked while eating, and the laughter and laughter also added a little vitality to this desolate ancient temple.
Before the wine had reached the third round, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside. The Yang brothers didn't care much about their experience, but Li Gongfu was slightly taken aback in his heart.
The sound of these footsteps came too suddenly, not from far and near, but out of nowhere not far from the temple gate, but it seemed that the people who came deliberately let the people inside hear it, so it was intentionally made.
When the footsteps reached the temple gate, a warm and peaceful voice came in:
"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, and the wandering monks have traveled here, I wonder if they can spend a night in the treasure temple?"
When they heard this voice, the others were not very good, but they saw that Ah Er was stunned for a moment, and then he screamed "Ahhhhhh
Everyone was stunned, but they knew that there must be something different, so they all got up and went outside the door.
At this moment, there is a young monk who is dressed in white like snow and rich as jade, and Ah Er is pushing the golden mountain and pouring the jade pillar to bow to this monk, and said: "The little animal greets the little Zen master of the ten directions." ”
When he saw Ah Er, he had a smile on his face, and he dodged away from Ah Er, but bowed with his palms together and said: "Donor, please get up, you are a poor monk, how can a poor monk receive such a great gift from you?"
Ah Er didn't care what the other party said, he kowtowed three times to the ten directions very reverently before standing up, and said very seriously: "If it weren't for the completion of the little Zen master, how could the old Zen master of Fahai pass on the little animal Buddhism? ”
Shifang saw that he was so simple, but he was also deeply pleased that he had a good vision when he was young, and it was not in vain that he begged his master to teach the Dharma to repay his kindness.
He casually asked why Ah Er was here.
Ah Er replied with a smile: "The little Zen master learned that after leaving the Yangtze River, the little animal wandered around for a while, and later recognized the master's family. Fortunately, thanks to the kindness of the master and the housewife, now it can be regarded as worry-free food and clothing, and life is stable. Oh, and the owner also gave the little animal a name, called 'Zhu Ah Er'. ”
Shifang smiled: "This is very good, and this is also the good reward of the donor's kindness and good deeds." ”
Ah Er saw that Li Gongfu and others also came out, so he introduced the two sides.
Li Gongfu and Shifang looked at each other. The two of them have their own magical means, although they can't see each other through, but they also faintly feel that the other party's situation is very similar to their own. On the surface, it is just a cultivation at the peak of Qi cultivation, but the depth of the foundation is unfathomable, and its strength definitely surpasses that of ordinary Jindan Earth Immortals.
