C40 (2/2)
He searched the entire village thoroughly but didn't find anyone. He knew whether the people knew it or not. But he did not know why. Thus, a plan formed in his mind, claiming that he had withdrawn his troops. He ambushed the soldiers at every intersection of the village.
Farmer brought people to the Temple of Fengguo and told the abbot about the situation in secret. The abbot was very sympathetic. He got someone to cook and entertain Farmer Farmer to calm the six girls. Not long after, Chen Cheng and his wife arrived, escorted by a waiter. The abbot comforted Chen Cheng and his wife, ”Almsgiver, please be at ease. This place is very quiet and would not attract soldiers. When bandits come, we monks have many people who can protect your daughter. For lodging and food, this poor monk provides convenience. ” Chen Cheng and his wife made a wish on burning incense, their gratitude endless.
Farmer was worried that the little Daoist and the other three girls might be worried, so he managed to stay the night. When dawn had finished eating, Farmer said to everyone, ”The six girls are safe. I also have a little Taoist and three girls, I don't know if they are safe or not. I have to go to the Three Purities Pavilion to meet them. I will take my leave. We'll meet again in the future! ” Chen Cheng said, ”Since this senior monk has matters to attend to, there is no reason for me to force him to stay.” I'll take you to the Three Purities Pavilion on a fast horse. Four hours have already passed. ” Fa Ming thanked Chen Cheng as they walked out of the mountain gate. Fa Ming mounted his horse and came to the Three Purities Pavilion with a shop assistant.
At the mountain gate, when Farmer had finished his explanation to the little Daoist, the nine girls were all safe and sound, and the two of them were all happy. Only then did the two of them enter the courtyard to eat. That's right: the compassionate monk enters the house mercifully, the chivalrous Taoist to the end. Unexpectedly, there was another gunshot in the night.
As for the little Daoist, he had a meal with Fa Ming and the sky turned dark. The little Daoist did not sleep for two days and one night, so he walked for another day. He was tired and sleepy and could no longer hold on. He pulled Fa Ming back and said, ”Master, I'm very tired, so I want to sleep.”
Seeing him walking and swaying, Fa Ming helped him into a meditation room and said, ”This is the abbot's room. No one will disturb you easily. You can sleep here.” The little Daoist took off his shoes and clothes and went to bed. Farmer covered him up and came to the main hall. The abbot was obviously waiting for him. ”I was just making tea for you,” he said. Sit down! ” Farmer sat down and said, ”My little Taoist fell asleep after he finished eating. I put him in your room. ” He then said, ”If fellow daoist linger around for a few more days, the two of you will live there. I'll stay here for the time being. ” This time, Farmer said, I'm not going to disturb you. At dawn, they would return to the temple. There's an emergency in the temple, wait for me to go back. ” ”You always come and go in a hurry,” he said. What urgent matter is there in the temple? ” ”We had a conflict with the guard battalion, and there were some difficult conflicts,” he said. I originally wanted to go to Tieling to ask the ten thousand year buddha to help us resolve the conflict, but I met a little Taoist on the way. He was the Junior Brother of the Guard Battalion Commander. I want him to persuade his senior brother. Although he was young, he was quick-witted and good at speaking. If I go back early for a day, there will be less trouble in the temple. ” Understand and ask the reason in detail. Then he told the story about how Ruo Feng robbed Yuan Shikai's treasure, causing the soldiers to search the temple, and how the monks fought with the soldiers.
”That Battalion Commander Guo Chengliang is the disciple of Buddha Guangliang, who has lived a long life. Why don't you look for the Buddha of Longevity? If he were to go forward, the conflict would be easily resolved. ” ”We are not familiar with the Buddha of Longevity,” he said. I have dealings with the Ten Thousand Buddha. ” He then smiled and said, ”Ten thousand years Buddha, Longevity Buddha and Thousand-hand Buddha are all famous figures. They had a lot of face, and all their private officials were aware of it. You can find any one of them. ” He said, ”The people on the mountain are people from the Central Plains. They have been working against the government for their whole life, making important cases. This person is too old, and can't be restrained. ”
At this time, the overseers of the temples in the mountain came over with a few more, and very quickly, everyone was seated in their rooms. The conversation between Farmer and the others changed again, and they began to amuse themselves. The two of them were both knowledgeable, and their words were like a scripture. In a moment Farmer would tell a story, and in a moment, he would understand the history of the story. After that, he talked about Yue Fei fighting against the gold. Everyone listened intently.
Unconsciously, he began to talk about the current situation. ”In recent decades, the Chinese people have been unfortunate,” he said. The Western powers came in droves to bully us. By signing those unequal treaties, our land was cut and our economic benefits were shared. ”Without expelling the strong, the Chinese nation cannot become rich and powerful.” An old Daoist called the Golden Spirit Child said, ”We've jumped out of the Three Realms and are no longer in the five elements. What's the use of talking about this? We don't have the power to reverse the situation for our country. Why worry about nothing? Why don't you tell a story for fun, like you did just now. Look at my plan. I want to travel all over the famous mountains and rivers, to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Happy life, peaceful old age. but I don't care about the major matters of the country, who's in charge and who's in charge? ” Everyone was silent. Then he left. Jin Ling Zi was extremely embarrassed.
Seeing that the two of them were opposed, he said, ”I understand that something is going on and will be back soon. I just heard from Fellow Jin Lingzi that you are very interested in famous mountains and rivers. This, however, made him feel good, and happy and carefree. I would like to hear from you about the famous mountains and the famous monuments. It's also a quick thing to amuse yourself. ”
The Jin Ling Zi was angry, and was about to not say anything, but he was afraid of rejecting Farmer's face. So he said, ”This humble Taoist doesn't have much experience. This humble Taoist only accepts fellow Taoist's invitation and says a few words. If you don't, Fellow Daoist, please don't take my words lightly. ” Fa Ming smiled and said, ”Fellow Daoist, please do not be modest. I am listening attentively.” Jin Lingzi said: ”For a long time, Northeast China was not valued by the state. The emperors of the Central Plains had always thought that the north-east was a barren area with a sparse population. In fact, the Northeast is rich in materials, mountains and rivers, rich in embroidery, compared to the Central Plains, not inferior. As early as the Yin-Huang Age, the Northeast was developed. There are still many ancient ruins left. According to legend, Shun Feng Mountain was the calligraphy of the mountain and the medicine Wu Lianshan were here. Yao and Shun had both been here before. There was a boulder in the Thousand Lotus Flower Mountain. It was still called the Starry Life Stone. That was because Shun had rested up there and was being called in memory of him. Legend has it that Shun is seventy years old and has the name of a longevity star. Our northeast area is large and our territory is vast. North to the north of the Outer Xing'an Ridge and east to the eastern side of the Cook Islands. ”The peoples of our Northeast live here.” He had always resented it, and he was so angry that he could not go on.
