Chapter 200 Country House, Monk's Night Talk
The autumn rain was misting, and the sky was getting late. There were two figures, one behind the other, swaying forward in the misty rain.
The younger one at the head is made of jade and metal, and his monk's robe is as white as snow.
Although I was walking on a slippery country road on a rainy night, there was no trace of rain and mud staining my whole body. It was very leisurely.
The one who followed him was slightly younger than the former, and he was fully equipped with a hat and a raincoat.
I saw this man stumbling forward on the muddy ground with one foot deep and one foot shallow. From time to time, he had to reach out to wipe away a handful of fine raindrops on his face so that he could see the direction of the future clearly.
Suddenly, as if seeing something, the latter hesitated for a while, and suddenly shouted to the former in surprise:
"Senior Brother Sanzong, look, there seems to be a family in front of you! Why don't we go over there to say hello and ask if we can stay overnight and get some lunch by the way."
When it comes to fast food, the person who spoke couldn't help but touch his belly and said with a naive smile.
People who practice martial arts must eat four meals a day, each meal containing rice and meat, in order to maintain their daily martial arts needs.
The two of them traveled for a whole day, and along the way there were some places where birds didn't poop. Not to mention Huazhai, there was no place to light a fire to make food. The little monk was already so hungry that his chest was touching his back.
"Does anyone have a family?"
When the former heard this, he was stunned for a moment. When he saw the lights that were lighting up slightly in the distance, he had a strange look on his face:
"Since you want to go over and have a look, Damo, then go ahead."
The young monk was obviously led by the Third Burial Monk. Seeing his senior brother's consent, he immediately walked toward the light source with joy.
That light looked far away, but was actually very close.
Both of them were martial artists who had worked hard for many years, but in just a cup of tea, they had already arrived at the door of that house.
San Zan stretched out his hand and knocked on the door knocker gently.
"Have the benefactor ever fallen asleep? The young monk and his junior brother were wandering by your house. It happened to be raining heavily. I wanted to borrow a piece of eaves to rest. I wonder if the benefactor could be merciful and take my senior brother in for a night."
There was a moment of silence inside the door, and just when the monk was about to say goodbye, a trembling voice sounded:
"Is this the Grand Master who is passing by to stay overnight? Lian'er, why don't you go and open the door for the elders?"
Immediately, there were light footsteps approaching, and after a while, there was a sound of the door latch being pushed from the inside of the door.
"But elders, it's raining and windy outside. Come in and have a rest."
The woman who was called Lian'er by the old woman tremblingly walked out from behind the door. Her smile and frown seemed to have a hint of innate charm. She walked out of the three burials, and suddenly felt that the world seemed to be much brighter.
I saw that the woman had a hairpin with five phoenixes of the Chaoyang hanging on her head, a short bean green official ribbon on the skirt, a pair of rose pendants for her eyes, and a narrow red satin jacket with gold and butterfly flowers, and a colorful engraved silk outer cover. An azure and silver mouse jacket, with an emerald floral crepe skirt underneath.
Damo just glanced at it, and his attention was immediately attracted, and he looked at the woman blankly.
In comparison, the Third Burial Monk is undoubtedly much better. No matter how beautiful the girl named Lian Er looks, there is no fluctuation in her eyes at all, as if she is looking at a red and pink skeleton.
"Namo Yellow Sky Constellation Buddha, Damo, you are in awe."
Seeing that his junior brother was still looking straight at the female benefactor, San Zan couldn't help but coughed heavily.
"Namo Yellow Sky Star Buddha!"
Damo had just woken up from a dream. He lowered his head hurriedly and silently recited the meditation mantra over and over again, his young face turning red.
"What is the little elder looking at so carefully?"
The woman didn't seem to mind that the foreign man was staring at her, and she even teased Monk Damo with a smile.
"Junior brother may have seen the benefactor's kind face, like seeing a Bodhisattva, and just forgot about propriety for a moment. I hope the female benefactor will not take it to heart."
San Buran silently recited the Buddha's name and rubbed his buttocks.
"The elder is joking!"
Lian'er covered her mouth lightly and couldn't help but snicker. Her eyebrows were like a fox stealing a chicken.
"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. Two elders, come with me. Don't make the mother of the slave family wait in a hurry."
The woman was smiling charmingly, and just about to speak, she suddenly seemed to hear something. She immediately corrected her expression, and with a slight step, she was about to lead the two brothers towards the inner hall.
Walking through the long corridor, you enter a magnificent room with carved beams and painted walls. Milky white cloud beads are dotted around. The center of the hall is covered with unknown orchid leaves. The shadows of the flowers are swaying, as if they are enveloped by festive clouds.
The auspicious mist covers the scenery, making people forget to leave.
In the hall, an old woman was leaning on the chair of the imperial master, looking at the two monks with slightly squinted eyes. When she saw the appearance of the three-buried monk clearly, she showed a kind and kind smile in a blink of an eye.
"I feel a little unwell, so I won't be polite to the two elders."
The old woman spoke tremblingly, and then she did not forget to give instructions to Lian'er.
"Lian'er, go quickly and pour some tea for the two elders, and then go and lay out a table of vegetarian food. There is no village in front of or a shop in the back. The two elders must be starving."
"My grandson knows!"
The woman named Lian'er curled her lips when she heard this. Although she was a little reluctant, she still stepped hard and walked towards the kitchen.
"This kid is so arrogant and spoiled!"
The old woman picked up the crutch and tapped it gently, but her face could not hide the fondness.
"Your love is innocent and full of innocence. This is the result of your good deeds and your kindness to our hometown."
The three-burial monk also responded knowingly.
Perhaps because of his age, the old man especially liked to chatter. The old woman looked at the two monks in front of her, suddenly seemed to think of something, and then smiled and said to San Zang.
"Where are the two elders going this time?"
"This poor monk is heading to Chetuo Kingdom."
"It's normal for Chetuo Country. Ever since that incident happened, I've been able to meet the magicians and elders who make pilgrimages here from time to time."
The old woman nodded and said while recalling.
"That thing?"
Damo couldn't help but said a little curiously.
This trip was originally for Monk San Zang to go home to visit his parents whom he had not seen for many years. The old abbot couldn't resist him, so he had no choice but to ask San Zang to take this young disciple out for a walk and see the world.
"Little elder doesn't know?"
Unexpectedly, the old woman looked surprised when she heard this, as if it was such an incredible thing.
"That was twenty years ago, when the old king's third son was born. The sky was the color of glazed light, and a golden lotus rose from the sky, like a rosette holding a majestic Buddha in the middle. At the same time,
, ten auspicious signs also appeared in the palace: "
"One of them is called nectar falling from the sky, another two is called seven treasures emerging from the earth, a third is said that granaries turn into golden millet, a fourth is said that lotus flowers grow in the courtyard, a fifth of them is said that light fills the room, and a sixth of them is said that chickens give birth to phoenixes.
, the seventh is a horse giving birth to an auspicious lin, the eighth is a cow giving birth to a white calf, the ninth is a pig giving birth to a dragon and a dolphin, the tenth is the appearance of an elephant with six tusks."
