Chapter 897
In just a blink of an eye, Li Qianlong found that the old man was missing. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, thinking that he had read it wrong.
A voice came from the sky, and the voice said, "As long as your faith does not die, everything will not end. You can still have the opportunity to try and let you fight for a month's ration, which means that the test period is one month."
Hearing Fang Tianxing's words, a flame ignited in Li Qianlong's heart, and he immediately said, "I will definitely do it."
He quickly ran back to the boat to catch fish. He was full of hope and had endless power. Such things were so bad that he could only make his own situation even more helpless.
This is a bit helpless. When facing one's own situation, no one can untie it.
When a large ship goes to sea, most of the fishermen hire it. Most of their fishing boats are damaged by the wind and waves, and they can only work for others. They have been free and easy, but now they have become like this. What is that?
They have been rich before, so naturally they don’t look down on the things in front of them, and they can’t put down their former airs, so they can only just live by themselves.
Li Qianlong is just a novice, so he naturally doesn't have that much thought. Instead, he feels full of energy and can see the light after passing through a period of darkness.
What's the matter? People's situation is a bit bad. Once they went to sea, the owner of the ship was bitten by a sea snake. Li Qianlong helped him suck out the poison, so he was grateful to the owner and gave him all the fish he harvested that day.
Li Qianlong didn't expect that he could get these, which was enough for the family to eat for a month.
He decided to look for the everlasting lamp. He asked the captain for advice. The old captain took a few sips of cigarettes and quickly said, "I have heard of this everlasting lamp. The eternal light in front of the Buddha is never turned off all year round."
Li Qianlong knew what his goal was, so he quickly bid farewell to the old captain and went to seek the lamp that would never go out.
He embarked on a journey, left his home on the sea for the first time, and went on the land. Such things made people laugh. No one would think it was ridiculous, and no one knew his helplessness.
Li Qianlong had no familiarity with the place, so he could only sleep all the way. After walking for a long time, he came to a temple. He wanted to go in, but when he heard the fingers and fingers of the people around him, he was a little concerned about his situation.
After several days of traveling, his clothes were not washed, so he was naturally dirty and torn. He didn't want to enter the temple like this, so he immediately turned around and left.
How could he get clean clothes without money? He had no choice but to borrow a set of clothes from others.
He didn't dare to go to those families who seemed rich, so he could only go to those small households and try to borrow a piece of clothing. He came to a yard, but the door was not closed, and he shouted outside for a few times but no one replied.
What's the matter? His strength is a bit bad. He walked in and saw that there was no one there. There were a few clothes hanging in the yard, but he couldn't take them away silently.
He had to tell the owner here and then borrow the things, otherwise he would steal them without asking for it.
When he walked to a wing room, Li Qianlong heard some strange sounds. He had never heard such sounds before. It seemed to make people feel a little panicked. He had heard them in front of his parents' room.
Li Qianlong was not easy to disturb him, so he took a few pieces of clothes from the drying and left a few salted fish he brought.
He found a bush to change his clothes and went to the river to wash it. It was almost the same, at least it wouldn't look so strange.
When he entered the temple, he was not expecting to be seen by the monk, and said to Li Qianlong: "Are you here to worship Buddha?"
Li Qianlong nodded, then shook his head again, which made the monk in Zhigu feel very puzzled. Li Qianlong immediately explained: "I am not here to worship Buddha, I am asking for an eternal lamp in front of Buddha."
"What do you want to do? This eternal lamp has no special effect." Zhike Seng said in confusion.
"I really work. I need a lamp that never goes out. I can return it after using it." Li Qianlong said quickly.
The monk next to him smiled and said, "Never extinguish, there is no lamp in this world that will never extinguish."
Li Qianlong immediately said, "I want to go in and take a look."
The monk Zhike said to him: "Of course you can burn incense, please."
Li Qianlong quickly went in and saw the tall Buddha statue with gold paint on it, but it was a little mottled. It seemed that no one had ever made a golden body for the Buddha statue for a long time.
Seeing Li Qianlong's appearance, the monk in the temple said, "There have been wars over the years. No one has come to shape a golden body for the Buddha statue for a long time. The misfortune in the world is also the Bodhisattva."
In fact, judging from his pale face and thin skin, everyone knows that he is not complaining to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, but to himself.
Li Qianlong also knew some things outside. Now there are messes everywhere, with heroes separating and people living in poverty. How can there be any good life?
He felt that this was not something his ability could control. He bowed to the Buddha statue, as if he saw the Buddha statue smiling at him. After sipping the incense, he looked at the eternal light on the shelf.
In fact, it is no different from ordinary oil lamps. It relies on sesame oil to burn, and there is no magical aspect.
Lighting oil lamps in temples is a manifestation behavior, indicating that the Buddha's wisdom and light shine on all sentient beings and can break the ignorance and darkness in the hearts of sentient beings.
Seeing Li Qianlong's appearance, the monk had no choice but to say to him: "If you really want to go there, then. We don't have enough sesame oil to offer you. It would be better to give you an oil lamp, which can be considered a good relationship."
Li Qianlong held the oil lamp and said gratefully: "Thank you. When I have money, I must reshape the golden body for the Buddha statue."
The monk smiled indifferently. The clothes Li Qianlong wore were all borrowed. What could he do to mold a golden body for the Buddha statue?
Li Qianlong felt that he could do it, so that people would know that he had the ability to repay kindness.
Li Qianlong happily left with the oil lamp. He thought that as long as he protected the oil lamp, he would go out, he would not be considered forever. What was that? Things were not as easy as he thought.
It was not easy to walk on his legs and protect the oil lamp from extinguishing it.
He had just started walking for a day and found a problem. He had eaten the salted fish he brought, and there were at least five or six days left. How could he get food?
