Chapter 166 (2/2)
At the back of Tianchi is a big banyan tree full of red wooden cards. In front of him is a little monk in his twenties, wearing a shabby cassock, sitting cross legged, chanting scriptures and playing seats.
Jingning did not know what this meant, and quietly asked Lu Jingshen, ”what is he doing?”
”Practice.” Lu Jingshen said in a low voice.
”Practice?” Jingning a little surprised, Lu Jingshen see she does not understand, then continue to explain.
”They are ascetic monks. Different from the Mahayana Buddhism in China, the Buddhist culture here is more popular with Hinayana Buddhism and self-cultivation. There are many monks who have become monks since childhood. With a heart of devout pursuit of Buddhism, they walk all over the motherland with a pair of feet. No matter in winter, in summer or in summer, they will never stop practicing hard and hope to get rid of it soon.”
Jingning slightly Leng for a moment, this just suddenly.
Then he asked, ”what's wrong with these mahogany signs?”
Lu Jingshen frowned slightly, ”I don't know. I guess it's the common people who see monks here and want peace. Do you see the soil under his seat? It's dry all around, but he's a little wet there, and there's a lot of dents in it. He should have been sitting here for a few days
”How many days? Can't he eat, drink and sleep? ”
Lu Jingshen shook his head. ”I know a little bit about these things, but I don't know much about them.”
Jingning immediately smile flattery, ”fur also know more than me, give you a compliment.”
Lu Jingshen shakes her head helplessly as she looks like a dog leg, and they continue to walk up the mountain.Until it was completely dark, they climbed to the top of the mountain.
Jingning was so tired that she didn't want to move a finger. Lu Jingshen dragged her to a restaurant on the top of the mountain to eat. After eating, she recovered some strength.
”Girl, sir, do you want a concentric lock? Go outside and tie a concentric lock
At this time, a white haired old lady came over and hung many locks of different sizes and shapes to sell to them.
Jingning curiously asked: ”concentric lock? What? ”
”Write down your name and hang it on the marriage bridge outside. You can live together forever and never part.”
Jingning's eyes brightened slightly.
Turning around, he asked Lu Jingshen, ”shall we have one?”
Lu Jingshen nodded. Jingning took one from the old lady and asked, ”how much is it?”
”Twenty dollars.”
Lu Jingshen paid a hundred, indicating that she didn't need to change it.
My wife was happy and grateful, and gave them a small lock, saying that it was a lock for hundreds of children and thousands of grandchildren. If you lock it on the bridge of marriage, you will surely have hundreds of children and thousands of grandchildren.
Two people very affectionately took over, after settling accounts, they went together to the marriage bridge that the old woman said.
After walking about half a kilometer, I finally saw a soft bridge across the dry waterfall in front of me.
The bridge should be some years old. It is full of different concentric locks of different sizes. Jingning rushes to the bridge and sees that all the locks are written with names and some love words.
”It turns out that there is such a way to play. It's so fresh!”
Lu Jingshen slightly pulled his lips and went over to ask her, ”where do you want to hang up?”
Jingning pointed to a place, ”here! It's not easy to come across here. It's kept longer. ”
Seeing this, Lu Jingshen took out his pen from his pocket and wrote their names on the lock.
