Chapter 44 God’s Will
He remembered that there were many flowers and plants in the mountains. When he went back to hunt rabbits in the mountains, he would dig some and plant them at home. It would be fun to see them.
Jiang Maihua giggled as she looked at the roses.
Song Jingyun chuckled because he was thinking about the flowers and plants in the mountains.
The neglected old man: "..."
It's a very hot day, but I feel a little chilly in my heart.
Hey, young people.
The old man stroked his long beard, hunched his back slightly, and walked slowly towards the backyard of the temple.
The backyard is the monks' meditation room and outsiders are not allowed to enter.
But the old man successfully entered the backyard and went straight into the abbot's meditation room. He sat down in front of the presiding Master Huizhi and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Amitabha." Master Huizhi put his hands together. "The sound of the tea is so impatient. I guess you have encountered something troubling you. I am curious about what kind of thing could have troubled you."
"Old bald donkey, your guess is pretty accurate."
The old man drank the tea in the cup, put it back on the table with a thump, and then said angrily, "I have been walking in the world for decades, and people have always asked me to read their faces and tell fortunes for them. Today I met a man who I wanted to tell fortunes for, but he refused. It really makes me angry."
"Oh?" Master Huizhi opened his eyes, his pupils shining. "I am curious about who is the person who can make you, Xun Yuanbai, take the initiative to tell fortunes."
"Amitabha, I never thought that such a distinguished guest would come to our small temple. I have never heard the monks say that the temple is any different from usual."
Xun Yuanbai said unhappily, "He is not a big shot, but just a handsome young man. In terms of appearance and demeanor, he is just above average."
"But he has a strong aura of good fortune, which I have never seen before. I wanted to tell his fortune to see what kind of fate he has, but he was unwilling to do so, so I had to give up."
"Amitabha, since you carry an auspicious aura..."
Master Huizhi paused and said, "I think it is because of the Bodhisattva's blessing that I know to stay away from people like you who are doomed to fail."
"What are you talking about, old bald donkey?" Xun Yuanbai blew his beard and glared, "Do you believe that I will burn down your meditation room?"
"Amitabha, in my opinion, you should think about your current predicament." Master Huizhi clasped his hands together again and closed his eyes.
As if all his strength had been drained away, Xun Yuanbai slumped down on the mat.
Yes, this is a dilemma at this moment.
Xun Yuanbo frowned and clenched the copper coins used for divination in his arms.
Seeing Xun Yuanbai hanging his head and not making any movement for a long time, Master Huizhi shook his head and said, "You are such an idiot, why should I remind you? Since you have met an auspicious person, I think it must be God's will..."
Xun Yuanbai sneered.
What is God's will? God's will is that if he says the wrong thing, he will die without a burial place.
Hmm? God's will?
Yes, it was God's will! Since I had met a person of good fortune, I thought I could also get some of his auspicious aura, and maybe I could turn misfortune into good fortune!
Xun Yuanbai jumped up like a rabbit and ran out, muttering as he ran, "You bald ass, why didn't you say it earlier..."
As we were talking, he had disappeared.
Even the young monk who came to serve tea widened his eyes in shock.
This Xun Tianshi is quite old. He usually walks tremblingly and looks like he is not in good health. But now he can run so fast! Xun Yuanbo received a lot of looks like those from a little monk.
But he didn't have time to pay attention to it and was only focused on looking for the young man he had just met.
The roses were still blooming brightly, the gardenias were still filling the yard with fragrance, and worshippers were coming and going in the yard, but the young man who was so auspicious just now was nowhere to be seen!
There is a destiny in the dark, what he said is really true! This so-called destiny is that he is destined to die...
Xun Yuanbai's face was filled with melancholy. -- Jiang Mixia, Liu, and Fang had finished worshipping all the Bodhisattvas. Seeing that it was getting late, they found Song Jingyun and Jiang Maihua and headed down the mountain to meet up with Jiang Youcheng and Jiang Chunshi.
It is easier to go up the mountain than to go down. Although this mountain is not steep and the steps are flat, I had walked up the mountain quickly and visited so many temples one by one. So when I went down the mountain, I felt my legs trembling.
Jiang Mixia and Fang supported Liu, Song Jingyun held Jiang Maihua and supported Jiang Mixia, and they walked down slowly like this.
"This Deyin Temple is really lively." Jiang Mixia sighed as she saw that it was already noon and there were still a large number of people going up the mountain.
"There are quite a lot of people here." Song Jingyun nodded, "So we have to be careful."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Mixia tilted her head, surprised why the young son-in-law suddenly said that.
"Just now you, mother and sister-in-law went to burn incense. Maihua and I were waiting for you in the yard. Someone came to talk to me and asked me to go somewhere else. I saw that the man had shifty eyes and didn't look like a good person, so I ignored him."
Song Jingyun answered truthfully, "When the man saw that I ignored him, he left. Before leaving, he looked back several times."
"How could such a thing happen?" Jiang Mixia frowned, but praised Song Jingyun, "You did a great job."
Temples seem to be peaceful and quiet places for Buddhism, and everyone is in awe of them, but this is only true for ordinary people.
Some evil people don't mind this.
Just like what Song Jingyun said, the man who took the initiative to chat with him might be a bad guy who saw that he was a man with a child and had evil intentions and wanted to seduce the child.
The young son-in-law is still very vigilant.
good.
After receiving Jiang Mixia's praise, Song Jingyun chuckled and raised his chin, "I remember my wife's instructions, don't talk to strangers, and don't walk around with strangers."
"Excellent." Jiang Mixia nodded with satisfaction. "When we went up the mountain just now, I saw your favorite wontons and minced meat pies at the bottom. Eat more later."
If you do well, you need to be rewarded.
As for the reward, you have to cater to the person's preferences! "Hmm..." Song Jingyun thought for a moment, "I also want to eat three-shred spring rolls."
"No problem." Jiang Mixia agreed readily.
Song Jingyun smacked his lips, his face full of smiles.
On this side, Jiang Youcheng and Jiang Chunshi were also quite busy at the market.
The needlework baskets are exquisitely made and reasonably priced. Most of the people who come to burn incense are women and children. When they see such things, they are willing to take a look. If they find that the quality is good, they will buy one or two.
Grasshopper cages and bamboo balls are children's favorites. They can't take their feet away when they see them and just beg adults to buy one for them.
Most of the people who come to the temple to burn incense want to bring their children out to play, and katydid cages and bamboo balls are not expensive, only about ten cents each, so they are willing to buy one for their children to play with.
Therefore, Jiang Youcheng's business is very good.
Jiang Chunshi's side...
