Carry water, sweep the floor, chop wood.

Ergou doesn't know how many times he has repeated these three things. Day after day, year after year.

Ergou asked Master, Master, are there really many masters in the rivers and lakes?

Master said that there are no wonders in the rivers and lakes, and there is nothing impossible in the rivers and lakes, and there are many masters in the rivers and lakes.

Oh. Ergou was very disappointed.

Because Ergou has never fought with others, and he doesn't know the standard for distinguishing between high and low martial arts, he just thinks that if he has the opportunity to go to the rivers and lakes in the future, he must at least mix with the level of a master, otherwise it will not be good to be beaten.

Now I heard from the master that there are so many masters in the rivers and lakes, and I suddenly feel that my hope has been disappointed, either I am fortunate to be a master among the masters, or I don't want to go to the rivers and lakes to wander around, because at this time, Ergou feels that if he goes to the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable that he will be beaten.

At this time, Ergou didn't know what the concept of his innate divine power was, and what would be the use of going down the mountain every day to carry water, sweep the floor, and chop firewood in the future. One force will drop ten, and the second dog didn't understand this truth at the time.

One day, Ergou came up with an idea, since he had persisted for so many years, he felt that there was no substantial progress, so it was better to try other methods.

For example, the quick way Master mentioned to quickly become a master.

Ergou came to the edge of the cliff and stood on top of the trunk of a dead tree, and the master behind him was full of anxiety, Ergou, what are you doing here?

Ergou turned around and asked Master, Master, what kind of kung fu do you say I practice, boxing and kicking or weapons?

Master said, Ergou, you come down first and then talk about it, and we'll discuss this later.

Yes, let's go down first. Ergou felt encouraged by his master.

Ergou finally jumped down.

After all, the reality is still very cruel.

Fortunately, the cliff was not high enough, and the two dogs jumped down and their eyes were dark.

The second dog was in a coma for three days. After all, I woke up. I didn't even ask Lang Zhong, and I didn't drink the medicine. Heal naturally. I have to say it's a miracle.

And Ergou didn't get anything after all, how could there be any chance, and there was no martial arts mastery, no cheats for one enemy and one hundred, nothing.

The second dog had not yet fully woken up, and when he was in a daze, he heard the abbot talking to the master.

The abbot asked Master, Senior Brother, you should be awake soon.

The mentally weak master said that it should be about the same. I wasn't seriously injured, and I didn't hurt my muscles and bones, but I just hit my brain. Not a big problem.

The abbot sighed and said, when you wake up, you can't show Ergou's brain first, this stupid disciple is afraid that his brain is broken. It's a shame at such a young age.

At this time, Ergou opened his eyes leisurely.

Facing the Master's eyes, he blinked.

He turned his head to look at the abbot again, and he looked at each other and blinked.

The abbot paused for a moment and spoke, junior brother, you see, Ergou's brain is broken. I don't know us anymore, I'm afraid our stupid apprentice is really stupid.

Ergou moved his lips, wanting to say something, but he felt that his throat was uncomfortable and his breath was not smooth, so he didn't say anything after all.

When Master saw this, he quickly poured a bowl of water from the table.

On the one hand, they all said that the first thing people do when they wake up is to drink water, and the first word they want to say when they wake up is water. The second dog must be thirsty and want to drink water.

The abbot also echoed on the side, yes, yes, yes, I must be thirsty, after all, it has been three days, and the water has not entered, and I want water to drink in exchange for me.

Then the abbot sat on the bed, possessed the little two dogs, and helped them up.

Come on, Ergou, you want to drink water, the water is coming. Master said as he handed over the bowl.

At this time, Ergou felt that his breath was smooth after getting up, and finally spoke, and Ergou said a word.

Hungry.

The master just put the bowl in his hand to Ergou's mouth, stopped suddenly, shivered, and sprinkled half a bowl of water.

Ergou felt that the abbot's body was agitated.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Abbot, chanted, Amitabha.

Ergou still drank half a bowl of water and ate five bowls of rice.

A few days later, Ergou was alive again. Continue to jump down the mountain to carry water, sweep the floor up the mountain, and chop firewood in the backyard.

I had nothing to do, and after I finished my homework, I started asking questions endlessly.

The abbot and the master saw it in their eyes, and they were very happy in their hearts, after all, that stupid apprentice was back again.

Ergou asked Master, Master, is it difficult to be a master. I jumped off a cliff and didn't get anything.

The master sighed and said, masters, are such a small group of people who can be called rare in the rivers and lakes, usually only hear their names, but not their people, and the dragon sees the head but not the tail. In fact, there are not so many masters in the rivers and lakes. Real masters, there are very few people who have seen them, and they usually can't meet them, so many people who don't enter the rivers and lakes feel that they are a master, after all, the probability of meeting a real master is so low, everyone is about the same, and it doesn't matter if they call themselves masters, after all, luck will not be so bad, it is impossible to meet really powerful people and compare with others, and the probability of slapping the face is low, so there are people in the rivers and lakes who claim to be masters, and there are many masters like dogs. The real masters are all alone in the rivers and lakes.

Ergou asked, why do masters wander the rivers and lakes alone?

Because that's a real master, there is no need to form a gang. That's why I roam the rivers and lakes alone.

What about the rivers and lakes, Master? What exactly is Jianghu?

Master said that in fact, rivers and lakes are rivers and lakes, and rivers and lakes will always be rivers and lakes, and rivers and lakes are just rivers and lakes.

The second dog shook his little bald head, Master, I don't understand.

Master said, maybe you will be able to understand in the future, because Master and I have not understood, Amitabha.

Ergou felt that since the master couldn't understand this problem, there was probably only one person in the temple who could understand it.

Ergou, remembered the abbot again.

In the meditation room, the abbot was chanting with his eyes closed, and the wooden mallet in his hand was knocking on the wooden fish. Da Da ...

Master Abbot, what are rivers and lakes?

The abbot's hand that was knocking on the wooden fish suddenly stopped.

The abbot turned his back to the two dogs and asked, why do you want to know.

Ergou said, I don't know why, I just want to know.

The abbot lowered the gavel. With his hands folded, he said a sentence in his mouth, Amitabha.

Then he looked up and sighed.

The second dog was stunned.

The abbot said, what are the rivers and lakes. It starts with the origin of life.

Ergou couldn't help but tremble when he heard this. It turns out that the rivers and lakes are so unfathomable. I couldn't help but start to get nervous, and Ergou began to regret asking this question a little.

The abbot went on to say that there are two things that cannot grow and multiply without it, the sun and water. Everything depends on the sun for growth, but water is the source of all things.

Hearing this, Ergou began to be confused and confused. Sweat began to ooze from the palms of the second dog's hands.

The abbot went on to say that drop by drop of water slowly gathered into streams, and streams gathered into rivers, and the rivers met to give rise to lakes, and the water from these rivers and lakes eventually flowed into the sea. This is the ultimate fate of a drop of water. It is they that make up rivers and lakes. What rivers and lakes are are actually water. Amitabha.

Then the abbot turned his head and asked Ergou with a smile, do you understand.

At this time, Ergou was completely stupid.

Ergou nodded blankly. Oh.

When Ergou came back to his senses, Ergou said to the abbot, Master Abbot, this is different from the rivers and lakes that the master told me.

The smile on the abbot's face froze for a moment, and then he said, Oh, it turns out that the mentally weak junior brother told you.

Ergou nodded, and said to his abbot, Master told me that the rivers and lakes are people, and where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

The abbot looked at Ergou and asked, are you confused?

Ergou nodded and said, Yes, abbot.

The abbot laughed at this and said, it doesn't matter, I am the biggest in the temple, because I am the biggest, so what I said is right.

Ergou watched the abbot turn around, and Ergou couldn't see the expression on the abbot's face at this time.

Ergou stood up, put his hands together, and said, Master Abbot, I know, Amitabha.

Then lean over and bow and gently walk out of the meditation room.

At the moment when Ergou closed the door, the abbot said to Ergou, "Call your master to come to my room at night, I have something to say to him."

The second dog said, yes, abbot.

Then Ergou closed the door to the meditation room.

In the meditation room, there was a sigh.
