Chapter 215

Although the days are like years, Huayin is reluctant to leave. People are such contradictions. They are tormented in their hearts and eager to know the situation outside, but they are unwilling to take the initiative to break this rare peaceful life.She always thought, so be it, just go with the flow, she is an insignificant person, without a big heart, she can't do great things, if she continues to struggle, it will only make this muddy water even more muddy.Now that the overall situation has been decided, it is better to chant sutras and pray for peace in the next short years.

This is a small hill that is not well-known. There is a dilapidated temple on the mountain that is almost equivalent to an abandoned temple. There is not even a good Buddha statue in the temple. There are four nuns living in it, all of them are old, because the people below the mountain are poor. , There is not much incense in the temple, even if there are wealthy households who do things, they invite monks from the next town. The temple is large and the incense is very strong. It is said that the Bodhisattva also works.

Therefore, these old nuns, apart from concentrating on worshiping the Buddha, have to work hard for their livelihood. They reclaimed an open space behind the mountain and planted rice, vegetables, melons and fruits. Although their lives were poor, they were peaceful and peaceful.It's just that the years in the mountains have been a bit depressing, so when they rescued Huayin and took her to the mountain to take care of her, they added a lot of laughter and laughter. Later, Huayin woke up and adjusted her body. They became nuns here, but these aunts refused to agree to anything.

Speaking of which, apart from the abbots, these aunts were originally from great temples and had a heart of perfection. The other three monks all had their own sufferings. Although the world is big, there is no place for them. They can only live here. .

The host looked at Huayin carefully for a long time, and said: "Little friend, even if you lose your hair at this moment, it will only disturb the tranquility of Buddhism. If you have nowhere to go, just stay here. It's just this matter of becoming a monk. Don't worry about it." Bring it up again."

Hua Yin thought about it for a while and then gave up. What she wanted was inner peace, and it didn't matter what form it took. She thanked her again and again, and then she stayed.

Because there were no ordinary women's clothes in the temple, Huayin wore the old clothes of those aunts, dressed as a nun, and had the same routine as them, worshiping Buddha and working in the back mountain together.Fortunately, she often went to the mountains to collect herbs in the past, and her physical strength was still good, so she didn't find it difficult to do farm work.The aunts looked at her description and behavior as a lady of a big family, but they all wondered at how well she did farm work, but because she was a Buddhist, it was difficult for them to ask her if she didn't say anything.The days go by in a dull way, with joy in bitterness.

Then one day, a woman came to the mountain to pray for blessings with her little grandson on her back, saying that her grandson had been bewitched by evil spirits, and she begged the Bodhisattva to bless her.Hua Yin looked at his face and saw the disease at a glance, picked herbs, made a decoction, and within half a day, his little grandson came back to life.The old woman kowtowed again and again, and said in her mouth that the living Bodhisattva had manifested.Since the woman came down from the mountain, the news that there is a living Bodhisattva in the Yuyuan Temple has spread like wildfire. The people at the foot of the mountain have a disease, and they gradually ran to this temple, because Huayin's medical skills are really amazing. Unknowingly, this fateful temple became prosperous with incense.

In just one month, even people from the town next door came here, but Huayin only treated people in the temple, and never went outside to do things for people. But much better than before.

The few people were grateful, and they no longer asked her to do heavy and rough work in the temple, but let her concentrate on collecting herbs and treating diseases.

On this day, Huayin got up early as usual, after finishing her morning class, she carried a basket on her back and was about to gather herbs. When she opened the temple door, she saw a tattered basket in front of the door. She opened the cloth bag and took a look. There was actually a sleeping baby lying inside, Hua Yin was startled, and carefully picked it up, looking far away, but there was no one, she chanted Buddha in her mouth, and carried the baby back.

Several old nuns in the temple heard the cry of the baby, and ran over one after another. They fought to hug each other, their faces were full of joy.

Master Qingxin said: "The poverty in our temple has always been worse than that of the poorest people at the bottom of the mountain. There used to be women at the bottom of the mountain who couldn't live on. The days have slipped away again. Because of suffering, not to mention someone who is willing to send their daughter to become a monk, but now someone is willing to put a newborn baby in front of our temple gate, this is a sign of great prosperity!"

Master Jingxin also echoed: "After a while, we have saved enough money. Let's reshape the golden body of the Bodhisattva, and then ask the craftsmen at the foot of the mountain to repair the gate. The temple is about to flourish..." She was talking happily, but the host suddenly interrupted her, chanted the Buddha's name loudly, and said, "Yinshan, go to my room and put the second one on the right side of the chest of drawers. I took half of the money for the sesame oil in the box."

Huayin responded and took it in a short while.

The presiding officer personally took the baby and handed the child to Master Zhenzhen, and said, "Zhenzhen, you go down the mountain with Yinshan, and ask from door to door to find out who lost the child and why it was discarded. The family is poor and unable to support them, so I gave the money to them."

Qingxin and Jingxin shouted "host" at the same time.

The host glanced at the two of them, sighed, "You guys..." Yan Bi turned and walked towards the main hall.

Both Qingxin and Jingxin felt reluctant to part with this little baby, and sent Huayin and Zhenxin to the gate all the way, still saying in their mouths: "Junior Sister Zhenzhen, Master Su usually likes you the most, why don't you persuade me? See How lovable this child is, our old sisters-in-law's life will be less and less every day, if there is such a lovable child jumping around, the days will not seem dull and boring."

I really sighed helplessly, "Senior sister, can't you see the painstaking efforts of the master?"

"I don't understand why," Qing Xin said with a dejected look on her face, "To be disrespectful, I didn't think about becoming a monk back then, but I was forced to do nothing by life. Although I am in Buddhism, I am still a layman. I just want to have grandchildren around my knees, call me mother-in-law, and even if I die, I will close my eyes."

Sincerely no more words, shook his head, and went down the mountain with the baby girl in his arms.

Huayin followed Zhenxin down the mountain, walked a long way, looked back, and saw Master Qingxin Jingxin at the gate of the mountain still standing still, looking at each other from a distance.

Seeing them, Huayin felt a sense of loneliness inexplicably, and she couldn't help thinking, if she escaped into Buddhism, would she feel as empty and lonely as they did when she was old?Will you regret your original decision?
Zhenzhen and Huayin went to the foot of the mountain and asked each household, and sure enough, they found one family. The man had just died in that family, and there was a blind mother-in-law, a lame father-in-law, and two and a half children. The baby cried so hard that he couldn't make a sound.

Sincerely chanting the Buddha, he gave her the baby girl and the sesame oil money, and said: "Almsgiver, no matter how difficult it is, the child should not be abandoned easily. Since this child has been thrown into your belly, you are destined to live in this life." Yes, children are the debts of their parents, and since they are debts, there is no reason not to repay them."

The woman just cried and didn't speak.

Huayin endured it, and said: "I see that you are also very reluctant to part with this child, just because your family is too poor to support it. If you really have more than your heart but no strength, you still want to throw it away. You should send the child to the temple. At least when the child grows up in the future, no matter whether she goes or stays, she will know who her parents are and understand what their parents have to do, so she won't feel resentful."

I really looked at Huayin and didn't speak.

On the way back, I sincerely said: "Although we monks think that the four elements are all empty every day, who can really do it? A baby has invested too much emotion and energy since it was raised up from being fed and pissed. When she grows up, when her mother comes and says she will take her back, how many people can truly have no sorrow or joy, it doesn't matter..."

Hua Yin was startled, feeling complicated.

Zhenxin said again: "After all, we are all human beings. If they are not gods and Buddhas, they are gods and Buddhas. There must be demons to set off gods and Buddhas. Yinshan, I only heard you said that your master is the teacher of Yuehua nunnery. Since you were young, you have made up your mind to become a monk and worship the Buddha, and if you insist on becoming a monk, you must be well versed in the principles of Zen, so tell me what your Zen is?"

"My Zen?" Hua Yin was taken aback,
Smile sincerely, "Although Buddhism is boundless, I always feel that everyone should have their own Zen. Only when they understand their own Zen can they use their own Zen to look at the world. This kind of statement is also like the Tao of the Taoist school. I am not a People who I have no doubts and believe in what other people say, I prefer to use my own understanding to look at this world of mortals."

Hua Yin felt that this statement was quite new, so she cupped her hands and said, "I would like to hear more about it."

Sincerely looking at her masculine behavior, she raised her voice and continued to say with a smile: "My Zen is that I never think that the world is either black or white, right or evil, and people live for a lifetime, both good and evil, with different positions. , Good and evil are also different. What is a devil in your eyes may be a Buddha in the eyes of others, and the Buddha in your eyes may be a devil in the eyes of others. Therefore, it does not make much sense to persistently pursue right and wrong. Sometimes, all we have to do is try to understand and find a balance between the two, a balance point where good and evil coexist in black and white, just like this day and night, day and night always alternate, and this day can continue go down..."

Huayin was dizzy by what Zhenxin said, if she hadn't been convinced that she hadn't told anyone about her past, and since she had known her during the time spent with Zhenxin, she would have suspected that Zhenxin was beating around the bush to preach to her .

The two walked all the way to the middle of the mountain, and sincerely brought water to her and said: "Drink some water and take a breath, don't worry about this moment, the host must have left us something to eat."

"If the little master is hungry, there is something to eat here!" Suddenly someone shouted, the voice was rough.

Zhenzhen frowned, originally he didn't care much, but after seeing Huayin, his expression suddenly changed.

She is an old sister-in-law who has neither money nor good looks, so naturally she doesn't worry about anything, she just thinks that the local ruffians at the foot of the mountain are quick to talk.But Huayin is different, even though her face was smeared black and yellow when she came out, she is still a young woman with a graceful figure, which cannot be concealed no matter what.

While speaking, two men came out, one was tall and strong, the other was thin and short, but their faces looked very wretched and cunning.

Zhenzhen slowly moved to stand in front of Huayin, grabbed her with the back of his hand, and motioned for her to go first, but he began to deal with the two men with his mouth.

The two men obviously came for Huayin, and the thick man said: "You are the new nun from the Jieyuan Temple, and you can cure diseases and save lives?"

Zhenzhen didn't wait for Huayin to speak, and rushed to reply: "No, the two benefactors have admitted the wrong person."

"You old nun!" The burly man grabbed her by the collar, "If you are a nun, you don't tell lies. I see that you, a nun, are dishonest. You'd better return to vulgarity early and marry a man."

Yan Bi threw it hard, and Zhenxin's forehead hit the stone, and blood immediately covered his face.

Huayin exclaimed, and was about to step forward to check, but the burly man wanted to catch her.

After all, it was a young woman with a flexible figure. It was not so easy for the man to catch her immediately. Later, the thin man became anxious and joined the ranks of chasing and intercepting her. Finally, the two of them worked together to capture Hua Yin. Hua Yin struggled desperately , indiscriminately tore off the thin man's cloth cap wrapped around his head, and saw the ring scar on his head at a glance.

"You have ring scars on your head, you are a monk!" Hua Yin shouted loudly.

He listened sincerely, looked up abruptly, and immediately said, "You two are from Guangyuan Temple, right?"

The faces of the two changed at the same time, with murderous intent in their eyes, and the thin man said sinisterly: "At first we only wanted to scare you, but since you recognized it, don't blame us for sending you to see the Buddha." .”

Sincerely furious, "You are also from the Buddhist sect, how dare you!"

The burly man laughed loudly, "It's all your fault, old nuns, who didn't keep their duty. They would have guarded your few acres of vegetable gardens for the rest of their lives, but you even robbed us of pilgrims, and you snatched away all the believers. What do we eat and drink in a temple as big as ours? When you go to Xitian... ouch..." Hua Yin took the opportunity to bite him, and then escaped from his grasp, because she saw her sincerity and could argue clearly, knowing that she was hurt and not It wasn't heavy, it just looked scary, so I grabbed her and ran away.

The stout man was furious, but excitedly said: "Kill that old one, that young one is strong enough, let our brothers be happy first, and then sell it for money."

The thin man's eyes lit up and he was very excited.

Not long after, Huayin and Zhenzhen were driven to a desperate situation. Huayin had experienced life and death several times, and he had long tempered his stability in the face of danger. Just as he was about to escape, there was a blur in front of him, and suddenly a person flew over.

She thought she was dazzled, but when she came back to her senses, the two Hua monks were already hugging their hands and feet and rolling into a ball.

One person holds a sword, stands tall and tall, travels and dusty, looks haggard, but looks undiminished, it is Feng Junmo.
