Tang, Zhenguan thirteen years.

Jiangzhou, Jinshan Temple.

Back mountain, deep in the bamboo forest of Wanzhuyuan.

The sound of beeping dried bamboo and bamboo shoot shells burning is accompanied by bursts of fish meat fragrance wafting through the bamboo forest.

Behind a shallow grass, a tall, burly young man fell to the ground, his face was like a silver platter, his eyebrows were picturesque, and he was a handsome young man with long flowing hair. The boy stared at the four bald heads in the depths of the bamboo forest.

The bald heads whispered with smiles on their faces, and in front of them was a fire burning with a tripod on which three fresh fish were grilled.

"Senior brother, the fish can be eaten. A little novice swallowed hard.

The name of the little novice is Xuanzhen.

The eldest monk, who was about thirty years old, smiled and said, "Xuanzhen, it'll be fine soon." He couldn't help but swallow his saliva, looked behind him cautiously, and said to another monk, "Xuanming, you go and take a look." ”

Xuan Ming reluctantly stood up: "Senior brother, Jiang Liu'er and Elder Fa Ming went to Jiangzhou City to Huayuan, and they won't come back until the afternoon, so we don't have to worry about him today." ”

"That guy is eccentric, and Elder Fa Ming protects him indiscriminately, so let's be careful. The monk who was called Senior Brother said, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

Another monk stood up and said: "Senior Brother Xuankong, Senior Brother Xuanming, Jiang Liu'er is cunning and lazy, every time he refuses to do anything to simply go to Elder Fa Ming, maybe he will find an excuse to sneak back to the temple, let's be careful, so let's grill fish here, I'll take a look!"

"Xuanwen is right, there is a river in Jinshan Temple, and it is always right for us to be careful in everything. Xuanwen, you look carefully. Xuankong said.

Xuankong Xuanwen Xuanzhen and Xuanming are all monks in Jinshan Temple, and they have all been tricked by the guy called Jiang Liu'er, and everyone is afraid and angry about Jiang Liu'er in their hearts.

Without waiting for Xuanwen to start, the young man lurking in the grass quickly bowed back and quickly disappeared into the bamboo forest, but there was a sly smile on his beautiful face like a silver moon.

Xuanwen cautiously patrolled around, came back quickly, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Xuankong, eat fish and eat fish, there is no one around." ”

"Good. Xuankong relieved himself, "Senior disciples, put out the fire carefully first." ”

"Yes, senior brother!" the three junior brothers agreed in unison, swallowing their saliva, and began to carefully extinguish the fire with sand and soil, and the three grilled fish weighing several pounds were placed on the mint leaves.

Suddenly, a Qingyue song sounded in the bamboo forest-"There are things mixed, born congenitally, lonely, and independent-"

"Jiang Liu'er!" Senior Brother Xuankong exclaimed in a low voice, his face turned white with fright.

Xuanwen Xuanming and the youngest Xuanzhen were both frightened!

The singing continued to be high-pitched and clear, coming straight to the bamboo forest here--"Zhou Xing is not slack, and he can be the mother of heaven and earth." I don't know its name, the strong word is called 'Dao', and the name of Qiang is called 'big'. The big is gone, the death is far away, and the distance is reversed-"

"Let's go!" Xuankong finally reacted, his voice trembling, and his face turned blue.

The four monks hurriedly lifted the mud and sand bags that had been prepared to extinguish the fire in advance and covered them on the fire, and fled in a hurry.

The youngest Xuanwen looked back at the three grilled fish on the lotus leaf in his busy schedule, and was annoyed: "Jiang Liu'er, I have to clean you up sooner or later." ”

Jiang Liu'er's singing voice came straight to this side - "Therefore, the 'Tao' is big, the sky is big, the earth is big, and the people are also big." There are four great realms, and people live in one of them—"

In the depths of the bamboo forest, Xuankong Xuanwen Xuanming Xuanzhen and the four of them were panting and leaning on the thick giant bamboo at the mouth of the bowl to gasp, Xuankong's chest rose and fell sharply, and he said intermittently: "Jiang Liu'er is singing - those - inexplicable songs, Elder Fa Ming - usually teaches him some - what?"

"I suppose—probably—what kind of song is it again!" said Xuan Ming, "and I have once in a while -- I heard -- Uncle Jian Temple--mentioned -- some strange song by Jiang Liu'er -- it seems to be a Taoist song. ”

"But-we are--it's Buddhism-" Xuanwen gasped.

"Those three fish—I've been fishing all morning—" The youngest Shami Xuan was really unwilling.

On that side, Jiang Liu'er's singing continued to resound—"Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is the law of nature." Hey, whose grilled fish?hey-whose grilled fish?-hey-hey-hey--hey- At the last word, the sound was almost inaudible.

With a snap, Xuan Zhen's fist smashed on the giant bamboo.

"Lighter!" Xuankong was startled.

"Our fish was eaten by the damn Jiang Liu'er!" Xuan Zhen's neck was thick. He had been fishing by the river for a whole morning, and he had three big river fish.

"Senior brother, you and Xuan Ming went back to the temple and quickly invited the uncle of the temple to come, I secretly went back and monitored Jiang Liu'er, he grilled fish and ate fish, the evidence is conclusive, just Elder Ming came back from Jiangzhou City, and I can't save him this time." Xuanwen said.

Xuankong's face hesitated: "Xuanwen, Jiang Liu'er is not an official monk in our temple, and Elder Fa Ming has not officially shaved him. Let's go and tell Uncle Jian Temple, is it useful?"

"Senior brother, although Jiang Liu'er has not been officially shaved, he is still a lay disciple in our temple, a lay disciple, and the rules in the temple naturally have to be obeyed. Xuanwen said.

"That's right, but Elder Fa Ming always stands on Jiang Liu'er's side, and Elder Fa Ming favors Jiang Liu'er every time-" Xuankong, who was scared by Jiang Liu'er, couldn't muster up the courage.

"Senior brother, the three of us went back to the temple to report to the uncle of the temple, and when Elder Fa Ming came back, Jiang Liu'er had already been punished by the uncle of the temple. Xuan Zhen said, his face was angry.

"Then let's go and tell Elder Fajue quickly!" Second Senior Brother Xuan Ming saw that Senior Brother was always hesitant, but instead made him make up his mind and take the lead in hurrying.

Xiao Shami Xuanzhen hurriedly followed!

Xuan Ming glanced at Xuan Wen, and the third junior brother Xuan Wen said: "Senior brother, if we don't give Jiang Liu'er a little hardship, he will never be afraid of us." ”

"Okay, let's go!" Xuankong made up his mind and headed towards the temple.

Xuanwen cat bent down and sneaked back quietly, through the dense bamboo forest gap, he saw Jiang Liu'er smashing his mouth to eat grilled fish, and while eating, he couldn't stop praising the deliciousness of the grilled fish.

Xuanwen swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his heart became even more angry.

Jiang Liu'er, who kept smacking his lips, didn't know that on the other side of the bamboo forest, there was a pair of angry eyes staring at him.

"The fish was nice, but unfortunately it was a little burnt. Jiang Liu'er chewed and ate a fish slowly, then stood up, licked his fingers clean, and said to himself, "I don't know who grilled the fish here, let alone why he left suddenly and in a hurry, hey, the fish taste very beautiful, do I eat them all, or do I wait here for the man who grilled the fish to come back? If he really comes back and finds that there is a fish missing, will he blame me? Will he beat me? Will he ask me to pay compensation? Or if he doesn't come back at all, won't I wait in vain?" Since you are waiting in vain, why wait any longer, you have already eaten one anyway, so it is better to simply eat them all!" He paced back and forth several times, talking to himself, and seemed to be fighting fiercely.

Suddenly, he suddenly realized, stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, his little face turned pale with fright, "God, I devoutly converted to Buddhism, the four major are empty, quit drinking-lust-wealth-qi, just now there was a magic barrier, because I saw no one around, I was confused by the deliciousness of grilled fish, I ate a tail of fish, and broke the original intention of Buddhism, this, this, this, how is this good?"
