Chapter 215: The Master of Lingtai is Clean, Where Can I Get Dust (Part 2)
Chapter 215: Master Ling is pure, where can dust be caused (Part 2)
Demolition of temples has been a taboo since ancient times, but it seems insignificant in the trend of urban construction. The Guanyin Temple is not a cultural relic, and it cannot be verified in the Prefecture Chronicles. During the Cultural Revolution, the Bodhisattva was smashed, the Main Hall was converted into a kindergarten, and the Guanyin Temple was rebuilt in the 1980s. Twenty years later, the Guanyin Temple was about to be demolished, and the alley in front of the door became a spacious cultural street.
Grandpa Jin said that before the liberation, there was a clear stream in front of the Guanyin Temple, passing through the western suburbs of Wucheng. Tingfeng Junzi said that when he was a child, there was an open ditch in front of the kindergarten gate. Now, under the Cultural Street is a sealed gutter, which has become the main sewer in the west of Wucheng. After the demolition of Guanyin Temple, the original site was to be built with shops along the street, mainly dealing with the four treasures of Wucheng's specialty products. After hearing this news, I wanted to take a look, not to see the temple, but to Mrs. Guan, who sells fruits in front of the temple gate.
The construction schedule of the Wenhua Street is very tight, and the relocation work must be completed in February 2005, before the Spring Festival. Dan Zicheng also went to Wucheng during the winter vacation, saying that he would come to see me first and then go home to celebrate the New Year with his parents, but he was wandering outside every day. Feng Junzi also went back to Wucheng to celebrate the Spring Festival this year, and he was wandering around every day. They had met several times on the street. When I went to Zhuangyuan Street this day, I saw a group of workers demolishing Guanyin Temple, and dust was flying everywhere. However, there was a pure land in the dust. It was a fruit stall across the street. The fruits on the stall were fresh with dewdrops, clean and untainted.
Mrs. Guan is here. Today she is sitting behind the fruit stall and watching the Guanyin Temple being demolished. Her face is calm and unmoved. The fruit she sells today is not golden dates, but big black pears and tangerines. There are probably not many people passing by to buy fruits on the street that is being demolished, but Mrs. Guan is still setting up a stall here. When I came, two customers stood in front of the fruit stall. They were a young man in his early twenties and a bald monk, Dan Zicheng and Shagen. The two of them got together again and walked here. When I walked over, I heard them talking-
Dan Zicheng: "The tangerine looks very good, just like the one I just picked. It's so strange to see it in the twelfth lunar month. Let's buy two to try it."
Shagen: "I have no money."
Dan Zicheng: "I have it, just treat you to eat."
Shagen: "Then I won't eat tangerines, I want to eat big black pears."
Dan Zicheng walked to the fruit stall: "Sister-in-law, give us two tangerines and two black pears."
Mrs. Guan smiled and said, "Others buy by pound, how do you buy by pound?"
Dan Zicheng: "That's right, then I'll buy more so that everyone can try it."
Shagen: "How much do you want to buy? I just need to eat a black pear."
Mrs. Guan looked at Shagen's new green scalp and asked with interest: "My little master, are you a monk?"
Shagen: "Yes, I am from Jiulin Zen Temple."
Mrs. Guan: "Then you don't have to buy it. You can beg for alms from me. I'll give you a black pear."
Shagen shook his bald head: "It's not like this to beg for alms."
Mrs. Guan: "How did begging for alms beg?"
Shagen: "If I am hungry, I will turn into vegetarian food, if I am thirsty, I will turn into bowls of water. But now I am not hungry or thirsty, but I am a little slandered. I cannot beg for alms from lay people because of my desire for the five flavors of mouth and stomach."
Mrs. Guan: "But you still have the desire to eat black pears, you still have to eat black pears."
Shagen smiled: "So what? Will I lose it if I don't eat it?"
This question was stopped by Mrs. Guan. She looked at Shagen and said, "Who taught you this?"
Shagen: "My Master."
Mrs. Guan: "Which master?"
Shagen: "Three Masters."
Mrs. Guan: "Then I ask you, you don't beg for alms with me, but you eat the pears bought by this guy. Isn't he giving alms?"
Dan Zicheng listened to him for a long time and couldn't help but want to talk. He interrupted and said, "This is not a gift. He and I are friends. Friends are treating guests and communicating with respect."
Mrs. Guan asked Dan Zicheng again: "Your friend is a monk. Do you also pay attention to etiquette and exchanges between inside and outside the Hunting Sect?"
Dan Zicheng: "Of course, otherwise why do you have to do the door? Isn't the door just for people to interact with each other?"
Mrs. Guan nodded: "It's very good, you can just take this car of fruits, and you won't charge you for money."
Dan Zicheng laughed out loud: "Sister-in-law is joking with me? Are you not afraid that I will push your car away?"
I was about to come forward to say hello, but someone on the other side yelled: "Hi! Brother, don't push the car away, leave some for me, I also want to buy fruit...Sister Guan, you are still setting up a stall here?"
Mrs. Guan looked up and said, "Xiaofeng is you, long time no see." The person who came was Feng Junzi. Why did he come here so coincidentally?
When Zicheng and Shagen saw Feng Junzi, they both stood respectfully and stood beside each other without saying anything. Feng Junzi didn't pay attention to them, and just said to Mrs. Guan: "It's rare to meet you setting up a stall, weigh five kilograms of oranges for me."
Mrs. Guan: "Look carefully, I sell tangerines, not oranges."
Feng Junzi: "Can I just eat it as an orange?"
Mrs. Guan: "Yes, you can do it, whatever you want...... Five pounds of oranges, you can take it."
Feng Junzi: "How much does it cost?"
Mrs. Guan: "It's the New Year soon, I'll give it to you, and I won't charge you any money."
Feng Junzi: "How can that be done? Ten dollars are so big! It's not easy for you to set up a stall. It's dusty on all sides and you're out to do business. Why do I have the nerve to take your fruit for nothing?"
Mrs. Guan: "Dust? Why didn't I see it?"
Feng Junzi looked at Mrs. Guan with a look and said in surprise: "Yes, your hair is not gray at all, and the fruits are so clean... But I just walked over and got dust all over." As he said that, he reached out to dust his clothes.
Mrs. Guan said with a deep expression: "You are going to walk in the dust."
"Before eating the fruit, eat it first. Without dirt and dust, how can I plant black pear tangerines? It's not that anyone wants to walk in the dust, but that there is dust in this world. Can you find something that you don't have?" As I said that, I walked over.
Feng Junzi: "No? That's not something! ... Ishino, why is it you?"
"Is it okay for you to go shopping or not? I happened to pass by."
Mrs. Guan nodded at me and said, "Of course there are no things to be found, and they are everywhere. May I ask, are you originally there in this world?"
Before I could answer, Feng Junzi frowned and said, "God, what are you saying? Why do I think it's weird? Don't you just buy a fruit? As for what's so complicated? Mrs. Guan, do you sell oranges?"
Feng Junzi was a little confused. Dan Zicheng didn't say much in front of the master, but Xiao Shagen said to himself: "Before there was no me in the world, then I was not the so-called me."
Feng Junzi heard this and smiled and said, "This little monk is quite interesting!... Master, will I invite you to eat fruit?"
Dan Zicheng finally found the opportunity to speak: "You don't need to invite me, I've already invited this little master."
Feng Junzi: "There are people who can grab such a thing? Then please... Shi Ye, I will come back to drink with you, I will leave first." After that, he put down ten dollars and left with a bag of tangerines.
Mrs. Guan looked at his back and said, "The Supreme Daluo Golden Immortal is willing to fall into this place."
"A good Bodhisattva, the temple was demolished, but he turned into a scattered pears in dust. So what do you say? You are clear in your heart. Do others be confused? I don't think you are like him." As I said that, I didn't wait for Mrs. Guan to answer, and ignored Zicheng and Shagen, and walked away to chase Feng Junzi.
At the intersection, he stopped shouting, Feng Junzi turned around and said, "What are you asking me to do?"
I stepped forward and grabbed his arm: "How about accompanying me to go shopping in the mall?"
Feng Junzi: "What shopping mall are the two big men going to? I still have to go home!"
"Don't do this. You used to take me around less when you were wandering around? Can't I just take you around for a while?"
Feng Junzi: "Then I'll go shopping with you. You have to carry this orange for me, it's so heavy."
I walked a short distance away and arrived at Wucheng Commercial Center. I didn't wander around. I pulled him directly to a corner of the jewelry counter, which sold jade. Feng Junzi was still interested in these things and pointed at them and said that, as if he was still a little bit of researching jade. I told the salesperson that I wanted to buy rings, but the salesperson picked several times and picked them up and none of them were suitable, mainly because the size of the fingers was not suitable. Feng Junzi saw me trying there, and he also joined in the fun and reached out to try it. We tried all the jade rings on the counter regardless of their value.
"Do you think it's a bit strange? There are dozens of rings, just one is suitable, just like what I did as specified by my hand?" Feng Junzi raised his left hand and put a blue-white jade ring on his ring finger.
I looked at him and smiled: "Yu is homophones with 'emotion', and it also pays attention to the word "fate". It seems that you are destined to be with this ring and should buy it."
Feng Junzi: "It seems that there is a saying...how much does it cost?"
The salesperson looked at the label and said a little disappointed: "What you wear is the cheapest, the original price is 40 yuan, 66 yuan off, a total of 26 yuan and 40 yuan."
Feng Junzi: "So cheap? I bought it!"
I used a little trick to trick Feng Junzi into buying the spirit lock ring. This kid has encountered many strange things in the world recently. Once, he even got into the ghost hut where ghosts gathered. Although he sealed his spiritual consciousness, he had a trace of spiritual awareness, and his experience in the world was not calm. I know he was not afraid of these things, but it was not good to be frightened. After all, he was still half a mortal body. Liu Yiyi's cultivation has improved now, and the Yin Spirit has been condensed and formed without any use. You can no longer use the spirit lock ring. Although this is a good thing and has many other wonderful uses, I feel more at ease when wearing it in Feng Junzi's hands.
When I walked out of the mall, I told him specifically: "Feng Junzi, don't underestimate this ring. Although it is cheap, it is different from other things. According to my observation, this is a magic weapon. The outer ring can drive away evil spirits and the inner ring can calm the spirit."
Feng Junzi: "Magic tools? When did you start studying these things?"
"Actually, I've been studying since I was in high school, and I still have some experience. I'm right to listen to my words."
Feng Junzi looked at the ring and said skeptically: "Is that so? If it is really like you said, then I'll take a big advantage today. Thank you, I'm really going home now."
Feng Junzi broke up with me at the entrance of the mall. He took a few steps and I shouted from behind: "Wait, I forgot to take your orange!"
...
Zhou Chun and I agreed that the meeting time for the two Kunluns to establish a new contract in the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2007, on September 25, the location was Wenzuishan Immortal Palace. This is the top priority for the two Kunlun practitioners in the past thousand years. All major sects attach great importance to it. Many masters and predecessors arrived at the Sumi Cave Heaven in Mangdang Mountain early this year.
The Mangdang Mountain Cave Heaven is planned to be given to the Miaoyu Gate of the West Kunlun after the two Kunluns are opened. It will also be a foothold and liaison place for the West Kunlun colleagues to walk in East Kunlun. The temple is built by various sects, designed by Mr. Zhang, and supervised by Fei Yan, and was completely completed three years ago. On the Dragon Boat Festival in 2007, I issued the order of the leader of the alliance, ordering the heads of the major sects to settle the affairs of the sects and lead the masters to meet in Mangdang Mountain before the thirteenth day of the eighth lunar month. There should not be too few or too many people going to West Kunlun. I decided to bring a hundred people and need to discuss with fellow gangs in the world.
Before the formal gathering of the two Kunluns, an envoy needs to be sent to Xikunlun to discuss the meeting matters and rules, and also check the dynamics there. I went back to Shizhu Village to see my parents, and I also went to Shili Golden Garden to discuss with Grandpa Jin, who to send as the envoy? The most ideal replacement candidate in my mind is Hexi from Zhengyimen, and I need to ask for the opinions of the head of Shouzheng. Grandpa Jin seemed to have known that I was coming for a long time, so he arranged tables and chairs in the Zaoyuan and soaked two cups of green snow tea given by Liu Yiyi for me.
After hearing my purpose, Grandpa Jin held the teacup and pondered: "He Xi is not the most suitable messenger. He has never been to Xikunlun and is not familiar with the situation. The first step here is to go to Wenzuishan Immortal Palace to contact Tao Ranke to understand the ideas of the various sects of the West Kunlun sects. He should be an acquaintance that Tao Ranke can trust."
"Acquaintance? The only ones who have been to Xikunlun are you, me, Feng Junzi. What do you mean by old means to let me go?"
Grandpa Jin: "You are the leader of the alliance, how can you be your own person? Of course, Feng Junzi's current situation is not good. Even if you awaken his spiritual consciousness for a day, it is not enough. I, the old man, have to go there."
"You? Are you going to go on the mission to Xikunlun in person?"
Grandpa Jin: "Why, you can't trust me? If you can think of my apprentice and Xi, you can't think of me, the old man?"
"No, no, your elderly person is the most reassuring thing in the world. I just don't dare to trouble you."
Grandpa Jin smiled: "It's not that you don't dare, but you wait for me to say it myself, right? Ten years ago, outside the Yaochi, the three of us agreed that the two Kunlun affairs will be led by you. You are commanding the world's sects in Mangdang Mountain. I am the head of the Zhengyi Sect, so I must set an example first."
"Grandpa Jin, you said it yourself, it's not me who took the initiative to trouble you."
Grandpa Jin: "It's time for me to go out and walk around. If Feng Boy is here, he will definitely compete with me for such interesting things. When he is not here, go for a walk around... You can wait for me in Wucheng. Xi Kunlun will also send an envoy. I will bring him to see you and lend you the Thunder Sword."
"When you come back from Western Kunlun, it is not far from Mid-Autumn Festival. I have to go to the coast to find Feng Junzi to borrow the black Ruyi."
Grandpa Jin: "Is your master good in the world?"
"It's very romantic and carefree!...You know that he is a man who is hard to reach. I deliberately put the spiritual intent in the teapot beside him. But the two years ago, he accidentally smashed the purple-qi red cloud-spirited chrysanthemum sand, which made me not very clear about his situation. Do you think he did it on purpose?"
Grandpa Jin: "If it is intentional, he will not damage the things in the Forgetful Palace. If it is unintentional, I am afraid it will not be so coincidental. I think that when it is intentional or unintentional, his worldly practice state may have achieved success and I don't know."
The true man of the Shouzheng was an envoy of the East Kunlun and visited Xikunlun before the two Kunlun meetings. The first stop was Wenzuishan Immortal Palace. He first met Tao Ranke and the various scattered cultivators in the Kunlun fairyland. Then, accompanied by Tao Ranke, he visited Miaoyu Sect and conveyed the greetings of Dong Kunlun. Finally, accompanied by Tao Ranke and Yu Ling, the head of the Miaoyu Sect, to the Taidao Sect, where he was warmly received by the practitioners of the West Kunlun led by Zhou Chun.
Although the people of Western Kunlun have not traveled to the world for thousands of years, everyone knows the power of a god, Zhengyi, and the head of Zhengyi sect comes to visit and pay attention to it no matter what. Moreover, ten years ago, the masters of Shouzheng cut off Wen Zuishan with one sword. All the masters present admired him and naturally did not dare to underestimate him. Shouzheng came to make a covenant meeting for the two Kunluns. No matter what Zhou Chun thought in his heart, he would also summon everyone to treat him with courtesy in his face.
Whenever the true man goes, he talks and demeanor shows his peerless style. At the same time, he is not arrogant at all. Whenever he talks about the two Kunlun appointments, he describes the various reasons inside and outside the world, but does not talk about the affairs in the Kunlun fairyland. This job is really the most suitable for him. He Xi and others are still almost the same. Even if Feng Junzi is tempered, he can do it well. He is old and cannot accept it!
