Chapter 168 Chapter 050 Going to worship Buddha was premeditated

050 Festival to worship Buddha, premeditated

After a long time, they climbed to the top of the mountain.Looking down at the feet, everything becomes ethereal.A ray of clouds rose up, covering the treetops with white gauze, like a fairy.

Although Anxiu was well-known among merchants in the city, the monks on the mountain didn't know about it.They only know those women who give sesame oil money every month.Anxiu doesn't believe in Buddhism, and He Youbao cares about money, so there is no incense case donated by them in this temple.

Everyone worships Buddha with ordinary pilgrims, bowing at three steps and kowtow at five steps.Anxiu, Zhang Zhenzhen and He Youbao learn from each other, and their actions are standard and pious.All the bodhisattvas in the temple are covered in gold and are exquisitely drawn: angry or smiling, or raising their hands or feet, they are all lifelike.

Images of the Eight Immortals are engraved on the door of each temple: Tieguai Li, Han Xiangzi...

Anxiu secretly touched it with her hands. It was indeed not painted with oil paint, but carved step by step with a knife.Surprised in my heart, such an ancient skill has already become precious and rare after being passed down to later generations.But it can be seen everywhere in this age, and craftsmen are also lowly.

After worshiping God, He Youbao and others said to give merit money.Anxiu immediately asked the servant to bring a box over, and inside it were ten envelopes of silver neatly stacked.

If it was normal, He Youbao would definitely be heartbroken to see Anxiu squandering 100 taels all at once.But now he just glanced at it, and then nodded with satisfaction: "Xiu, Dad took it personally, so he looks sincere." This time Anxiu can come back safely, He Youbao will understand that money is nothing but external things, what can you do? Assiduously?It is God's blessing that the children around you are happy and healthy.

An Xiu and Zhang Zhenzhen waited for him outside the hall.

After a while, He Youbao finally came out, and an old monk was with him.He Youbao pointed to Anxiu's side, and said something to the old monk in a low voice. Anxiu hurriedly came over with Zhang Zhenzhen and asked what was going on?

The old monk smiled and said: "Blessing lady, there is a Dharma meeting in our temple today. Master Yijuan personally explained the Dharma. If the benefactor is interested, let's listen to it together."

Both He Youbao and Zhang Zhenzhen looked at Anxiu with joy. They both knew that only those with status could attend the Dharma conference held by the abbot, and this affirmed Anxiu's status.

An Xiu herself didn't want to go, but she glanced at Zhang Zhenzhen who was at the side, and agreed: "Master, please lead the way."

Anxiu wants Zhang Zhenzhen to listen, the child is too hostile.At such an age, with Anxiu and He Youbao treating each other sincerely, why does she have so much hatred towards this world?Could it be that Ling Erhu hated her secretly?
Both Zhang Zhenzhen and He Youbao wanted to listen to the Dharma, seeing that Anxiu agreed, they each smiled.The old monk walked in front, An Xiu and the other three followed behind.Turning around a long corridor, there is an independent small courtyard in the northwest corner, a towering old tree is attached to each other, cigarettes are dense, intermittent beating wooden fish sounds, monks singing in low voice...

The old monk turned to Anxiu and the others and said, "Benefactor, two female benefactors, the Wisdom Hall is in front of you, the three of you will go alone."

Anxiu and the others hurriedly expressed their thanks.

The Dharma conference in the hall had already started, and the young novice who was serving outside the hall saw them coming and hurriedly led them into the hall. A group of people gathered their spirits and held their breath, and quietly entered through the side door.

A monk had already added three futons at the back for them to sit on.

Anxiu He Youbao originally wanted to sneak over and sit down, so as not to disturb the old monk's Zen lecture.Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered, the old abbot suddenly opened his eyes and looked at them, his eyes were like torches, as if he could understand people's hearts.An Xiu was stunned by this gaze, and a chill came down her back.

Could it be that he could see that he was not from this era?
It was at this moment that the old monk opened his eyes, and then continued to talk about Zen.There was no sound in the hall.

Sitting at the back, you can also hear the voice of the old monk slowly soaking into the eardrums.

Anxiu listened hard for a long time, but she didn't seem to understand, so she heard a few more familiar words: "You should have a pure heart like this, you should not dwell on the appearance of the mind, you should not dwell on the sounds, smells, tastes, touches, and dharmas. There is nowhere to live but to live with the heart..."

Zhang Zhenzhen seemed to be able to understand and was quite absorbed.

Anxiu tried her best to make herself understand, but she didn't have much wisdom, Zhang Zhenzhen listened with gusto, while Anxiu was thinking about how to turn the pearls she brought back into more money.

Such beads are the best for making headgear.Pigeon eggs are used as the main bead, and small white pearls are used to assist the surroundings. When combined, it is absolutely unique in this world.These pearls cannot be bought in other jewelry stores.

With the sound of a wooden fish, everyone became solemn, and the hall was completely quiet.

Only then did Anxiu wake up, and looked at the crowd blankly.Everyone including Zhang Zhenzhen was a little nervous, staring at the old abbot closely.Anxiu didn't understand, so she could only push Zhang Zhenzhen, and asked in a low voice, "What did the master say?"

"The master said to choose someone to teach Buddhism alone..." Zhang Zhenzhen looked forward to it, "But you have to be sincere, and only those who have a relationship with the Buddha are good. I'm afraid I can't go..."

Here, the master has already selected a person, and handed a small wooden sign to the little novice, and asked the little novice to give it to the predestined person selected by the master.

The little novice walked back slowly, disappointed by the faces of the people he passed by, and finally, his footsteps were heard in front of An Xiu and others.

Anxiu looked at him in astonishment, thinking don't choose me, otherwise it would be too bloody!
Just thinking about it, the little novice held up the wooden sign in front of Anxiu: "The benefactor..."

Anxiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, her face was bloody.

The Dharma Conference has finished speaking, and everyone left the hall.Anxiu was waiting at the side, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Qin were also listening. Seeing Anxiu, they looked at her in astonishment, and then smiled back.Qin Yiran also smiled politely at her, and when she saw Zhang Zhenzhen at the side, she immediately blushed.

Zhang Zhenzhen kept smiling and went out with Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Qin.

After everyone left, only An Xiu and the old abbot were in the hall.The old abbot still squinted his eyes, rolled the beads in his hands, and tapped the wooden fish lightly.Anxiu was at a loss, sitting cross-legged on the futon opposite the old abbot.The old abbot didn't speak, and she didn't dare to speak either.

After a long while, the old abbot said, "Female benefactor, the Buddha's Dharma says: Innocent and solemn light, every thought lasts for a moment. Do you know what it means?"

Anxiu naturally didn't understand, so she said honestly: "Anxiu doesn't know, I hope Master will clarify."

The old abbot sighed, speaking slowly, Anxiu still didn't quite understand, and finally summed it up, roughly saying that she had too many distractions in her heart, which bound her hands and feet instead.It should be cultivated in meditation, so that you can reach bliss in the future.

All in all, I hope that Anxiu will give up some mundane trivial matters, and don't worry too much, so as not to hurt her heart.Desires and desires are fundamental.

An Xiu respected such an old monk very much.No matter what his purpose in saying these words was, An Xiu didn't refute, just listened quietly and nodded quietly.Finally, the old monk asked: "Female benefactor, my Buddha is merciful, don't do evil, you have to forgive others and forgive others!"

Anxiu thought, she is not aggressive, what is this old monk saying?But nodded and said he remembered.

When did she respect Buddha so much?
Coming out of Prajna Hall, Zhang Zhenzhen and He Youbao waited outside the hall.Busily asked what the master told her.

Anxiu pretended to be mysterious: "Master taught me some unique insights into Buddhism, and warned me not to let outsiders know. Dad, Zhenzhen, don't ask, it's disrespectful to the Buddha!"

Zhang Zhenzhen and He Youbao were startled, and they stopped asking.

******
Anxiu came out from the Prajna Hall, the little novice closed the door, and a man walked out from behind the Buddha statue.He is Xue Tanzhu, owner of Xuetan Silver Jewelry Shop.From his appearance, he was only in his early forties, with big ears and a very lucky face, and his facial features were peaceful. He didn't look like a businessman, but like an official.

It is also a skill not to be angry and arrogant!

Xue Tanzhu looked at Master Yijue and asked, "Master, what do you think of her reaction?"

"Benefactor, I just told the Anton family all these things as you ordered. Whether she can understand is due to your good fortune!" Yi determined to say painfully.What he said just now was just taught by Xue Tanzhu to An Xiu, hoping that An Xiu would not cause any further disturbance in the jewelry store.

Her rice shop broke the rules of the rice shop and caused headaches for many people, so Xue Tanzhu hoped that through the old monk's words, Anxiu would believe that if she didn't restrain herself, she would suffer retribution sooner or later!

"Thank you, Master Yijue, I accept your order. It has been delivered, and Master will check it later." Xue Tanzhu said.

In front of the Buddha, Master Yijue only felt pain in his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he said in a muffled voice, "Thank you benefactor. I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you. Benefactor please!"

Yijue became a monk at Hejue Temple at the age of eight, and every plant and tree this time has been with him all his life.Now he is more than 80 years old and has been clean all his life.But the incense in the temple is getting worse day by day.The world is peaceful and just, and people feel less injustice and pain in their hearts, and they don't need the support of Buddhism.We are all busy earning money to earn a living, so who is still devout to chant Buddha?

Since no one recited the Buddha's name, the incense in Hejue Temple decreased a lot, and it gradually became unable to maintain daily expenses.The southeast corner of the main hall has long been in disrepair and is about to collapse.

Master Yijue went down to Huazhai in person, hoping that the wealthy people in the city would pay for the repair of the main temple.But everyone was very indifferent, and talked about the difficulties of the world, and their life was not easy, so they sent him back after giving him a few taels of silver.

I happened to go to the Xuetan Silver Jewelry Shop yesterday, and talked to Xue Tanzhu about repairing the main hall, Xue Tanzhu immediately promised to give 5000 taels of silver.But he needs a master to help him do one.

It is to persuade Anxiu to put down her hostility, do business well, and don't try to dominate her business.

After weighing again and again, he finally agreed.But he spent his whole life in cultivation, but when he grows old, he has to do such mundane things, isn't it heartache like a knife?
