Chapter 249: Fellow Countryman
The Quanrong delegation and the Nanzhao delegation arrived one after the other.
Jiang Xinyu didn't care about the Quanrong but was very concerned about Nanzhao's enlightenment.
Compared to the Quanrong team, Miaowu's team is much more refined.
There were only more than 30 people in total and they did not have much luggage. They did not stay in Hongluyuan but directly moved into Huguo Temple.
They really don't need to bring anything.
Religion has no borders. As long as there are Buddhists, there will always be people to entertain them.
After Miaowu moved into Huguo Temple, the meditation rooms in the temple were quickly booked out.
This is not something that can be achieved by having money. This is a treatment only available to the families of royal relatives and first-rank officials.
As the wife of the Marquis of Zhenguo, Jiang Xinyu naturally would not be left without her. Not only did she have a place to live, she also had a small courtyard.
The Buddha taught that all beings are equal, but the monks were trying to curry favor with the powerful, which made her even more disdainful of Buddhism.
The reason why she was willing to come was first to experience that wonderful enlightenment, and secondly because of her aunt.
Mrs. Wang believed this, but it was impossible for a mere business woman to have a meditation room at such a time.
If Jiang Xinyu didn't come, Mrs. Wang would be stopped outside when she wanted to enter the temple to burn incense.
Boss Xiao Yuan was unhappy when he knew Jiang Xinyu was going to live in Huguo Temple.
He felt vaguely uneasy that his wife was taking that insight too seriously.
But he also knew that his wife's decision would not be easily changed, so after pestering her for a lot of benefits, he actually went with her.
The lady has a separate courtyard and he is a eunuch, so it doesn't matter even if the meditation room is now occupied by women from different families.
Jiang Xinyu held her waist and felt that her husband had become bad.
If she had known that this guy would live there, she would not have let him do whatever he wanted.
Xiao Yuan was also justified.
It is definitely not convenient to do that kind of thing in a pure Buddhist place. Is there anything wrong with me asking for two more times to make up for the loss in advance?
It's all done, Jiang Xinyu is too lazy to say anything if there is any problem.
She just reminded him again not to act rashly, as she went to see Miaowu to confirm something.
She couldn't let Xiao Yuan's jealousy ruin her business.
At this time, Miaowu had just moved in and the sutra debate meeting had not yet begun, and this eminent monk would only show up in the morning.
It only takes the time of two incense sticks to recite a sutra in the main hall and then leave.
Some devout believers could kneel outside the temple and listen from a distance, but he could not see the guests.
Jiang Xinyu had no interest in kneeling down and listening to people's mumblings, but instead glanced at the Zen master Miaowu from a distance.
She finally understood why Xiao Yuan was so petty. Miao Wu was indeed very good-looking.
No wonder some people say that a bald head is the highest standard for testing whether a man is handsome.
This requires not only good-looking facial features and face shape, but also the head shape and head-to-body ratio are crucial.
Miaowu is 7 feet tall and has a slender figure, sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, red lips and white teeth. His head shape and figure are extremely perfect.
Nuwa's show of skill looks like it was made with a golden ruler.
He was obviously a monk but he never wore a cassock like the abbot.
The flowing white monk's robe made him look like a banished immortal, untainted by the mundane world.
Wow, red beans gave birth to a male model in the south and Nanzhao gave birth to a male model.
It was the first time that Jiang Xinyu saw a man who was more handsome than her daughter-in-law.
The beauty of He Zhang is elegant and gorgeous. It is the best, but it is just an ordinary product.
Miaowu is different, this person is so extraordinary.
I feel like he shouldn't exist in this world, and talking about love with him is blasphemy.
But the more this happens, the easier it is for people to sink into depravity. It is simply the white moonlight of this month.
Xiao Yuan came with Jiang Xinyu and carefully observed his wife's expression.
Seeing her staring at Miaowu with surprise flashing in her eyes, he almost turned into a sour lemon.
Xiao Duzhu was also sarcastic. He even took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Jiang Xinyu's hand.
"Wipe your saliva!"
Jiang Xinyu took it subconsciously, and just as she reacted when it touched the corner of her mouth, she glared at Xiao Yuan coquettishly.
"Vinegar pot!"
Xiao Yuan turned away proudly.
Is he just being jealous?
The lady's eyes were almost on the monk, how could he not be jealous?
What's so good about an egg-shaped head? There are 9 ordination scars on the top of the head, like a lotus flower.
Mr. Qiu's Love Guide:
Occasionally showing jealousy and waiting for the other party to coax you can not only add interest but also improve your status in the other person's heart.
Governor Xiao was determined to get angry. His wife was the type that couldn't be coaxed without a kiss and a hug.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed in the end.
His wife didn't chase him when he came back early, and he sat in the meditation room for half an hour but she didn't come back.
Xiao Duzhu is already a 29-year-old baby. He is sensible and can take care of himself.
After coaxing himself, Governor Xiao decided to go look for his wife, but by chance he saw the pretty-faced monk walking alone towards the back mountain.
The sixth sense is indeed a magical thing. Xiao Yuan was able to follow it as if by some strange coincidence.
Miaowu really went to see Jiang Xinyu.
Although he appeared calm on the outside, he actually wanted to somersault back into the mountain.
Originally, after finishing chanting the sutra today, he wanted to go back to the meditation room to rest as usual.
Those people are so annoying. It's a waste of time to talk to them.
But soon after leaving the main hall, he met a beautiful woman blocking his way.
He originally wanted to let the monks in the temple evade him as he had done in the past, but he did not expect that the monk who led the way actually said that this was the wife of the Marquis of Zhenguo.
There was an embarrassment and a meaningful pause on his face. He was not stupid, and it was obvious that he was saying that they couldn't afford to offend him so he just gave him a perfunctory reply.
Well, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.
It's not that he is ignorant of the ways of the world. The wife of the Marquis of Zhenguo is considered the ceiling among the female family members.
We have to give some face to Dajin since we are on his territory.
Jiang Xinyu's identity is not suitable for too much contact with Miaowu, so in order to connect with him in a short time, he can only play straight.
Seeing Miaowu nodded to indicate that she could come over, she bowed slightly.
With so many monks watching her, she naturally couldn't just come up and say something half-hearted.
I simply recited a famous Buddhist verse as a test.
She asked about the congratulatory stamp two days ago.
Her daughter-in-law has learned a lot of Buddhist verses, but this verse, which is well-known in modern times, is not found here.
She said that this not only showed her devout devotion to Buddhism so that the monks around her would not have any other associations, but also helped them quickly determine whether this person was a fellow villager.
Jiang Xinyu's question is also very simple.
The body is a bodhi tree, the mind is like a bright mirror, always wipe it diligently and do not allow it to accumulate dust.
I would like to ask the holy monk if this verse can be answered.
This is the story of the Fifth Patriarch Hongren asking the Sixth Patriarch Huineng a question. Even those modern people who do not understand Buddhism have more or less heard of it.
If this wonderful insight really comes to modern people, they should understand it.
Miaowu really understood. When he heard this, his eyes widened and he blurted out,
"There is no Bodhi tree, nor is there a mirror. There is nothing at all, so where can dust come from?"
Great, the code is right.
The monks around were all amazed by these verses, and no one noticed that the female donor and the master had strange expressions.
After Miaowu got the secret code, he asked the classic line,
"Odds change, but evens don't change,"
Jiang Xinyu's eyes lit up, "Look at the quadrant for the symbol."
"The King of Heaven Covers the Tiger of Earth"
“Chicken stew with mushrooms”
Oh my god, not only are we from the same hometown, we are also birds of a feather.
Jiang Xinyu felt that it was unlikely that this funny guy was Long Aotian, but for the sake of caution she still had to discuss it in detail.
It's just that their identities are inconvenient, so...
Jiang Xinyu decided to ask in English, and if possible, she would wait for this fellow villager in the back mountain.
Miaowu indeed understood.
He put his hands together like a holy monk and playfully replied in English that she should wait for him. Then he shook off these idiots and left.
The monks around were confused and didn't understand what they were saying, but because the two men looked solemn and serious, they thought they were talking about some profound Buddhist teachings.
After all, the few verses uttered by the wife of the Governor Zhenguo Hou were very insightful. She was a pious female Bodhisattva.
After the two of them parted, Jiang Xinyu took a detour to the back mountain. Not long after, Miaowu also left his attendant monk behind and slipped out.
Xiao Yuan was quite good at tracking people, and Miao Wu was so focused on meeting his fellow villager that he didn't notice anyone there.
And then…almost died at twenty-one.
Cause of death: a monk was caught having an affair with the eunuch's wife!
