Just when I was about to fall asleep, I heard a commotion next to my ears. The monks got up...
After asking, I learned that preparations for the worship ceremony were already underway.
After much thought, as a security guard, I can't not show up, right?
But if a very strong alien appears, I can't defeat him...
So I just called Cao Ning over.
Xu Si raised his middle finger towards Cao Ning and said unhappily:
"Do you want to give it a try?"
Cao Ning waved his hand quickly and said with a smile:
"I will never have this blessing in my life! I'd better leave it to you to enjoy it!"
Abbot Lin looked at the two people fighting, a trace of nostalgia appeared in his cloudy eyes, and he looked at the corpse under the white cloth slightly, a trace of mist appeared in his eyes...
Combined with the old and cloudy eyes, it is hard to tell whether this is the mist caused by sadness or the weird metabolism after the body gets old...
Senior brother?
I think we used to play around like this, right?
When we first met, it was like a spring breeze.
When we meet again, it will be the end of summer.
Looking back, it has become the past.
At that time you asked me if I wanted to return to secular life and marry a woman...
In life, filial piety is the most important virtue, and having no descendants is the greatest!
While thinking, he couldn't help but smiled and shook his head, and said in a calm tone:
"My two friends, can you come out with me for a moment?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Ning and Xu Si's faces immediately straightened, they looked at each other and nodded.
Abbot Lin touched the head of the "little living Buddha" and said gently:
"Qingshu, I have something to discuss with these two big brothers. Why don't you recite here first?"
The little boy called Qingshu opened his big eyes, nodded obediently and said:
"Yes! Master!"
When Cao Ning heard the name, his heart sank suddenly. Qingliu and Qingshu?
Are these two siblings?
The three of them walked to the corridor, and Abbot Lin led them to the window. Looking down at the square below where the Tibetan people were rustling around, he murmured softly:
"You all came early?"
Cao Ning took out two cigarettes from his pocket, threw them into the hands of Abbot Lin and Xu Si, and then slowly lit them.
Suddenly, the three of them started smoking in the corridor...
Cao Ning asked curiously:
"Old Lin, do you have anything to say by calling us out?"
Abbot Lin bowed to the two of them and said in a serious tone:
"You two have guessed it, right? My little disciple is not a living Buddha..."
The two of them straightened their faces and nodded to Abbot Lin...
Abbot Lin turned his head and looked towards the square, and said to Cao Ning in a somewhat decadent tone:
"My dear friend Cao Ning, I am already one hundred and three years old..."
The posture he displayed at this moment did not look like that of a strong old man, or a senior monk at all, but more like an old man in his twilight years.
Chapter 108: The weird old man who is looking forward to his stinky daughter getting married.
Abbot Lin casually threw the cigarette butt on the ground, lowered his head and stomped it out with his foot, then raised his old face and said in a heavy tone:
"The Living Buddha must have a guardian monk beside him, and I was the previous guardian monk!"
As he spoke, he looked towards the door leading to the white space, and continued with a slightly hoarse voice:
"And this guardian monk is Qingshu. You are right... Qingliu and Qingshu are siblings, and they are my senior brother's great-granddaughter and great-grandson!"
Xu Si was slightly stunned, but he did not interrupt the conversation between the two and listened quietly...
Cao Ning took a puff of his cigarette and said very rationally:
"Do these two siblings know about the identity exchange?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a solemn atmosphere in the air...
Upon hearing this, Abbot Lin's dry hands began to tremble slightly. He sighed and said:
"Qingliu thought his brother was a living Buddha and that he was protecting the monks. But Qingshu knew his sister was a living Buddha, but he became a living Buddha. Qingshu is different from his sister. He has been very sensible since he was young."
Cao Ning was slightly stunned, and his opinion of Qingshu immediately rose to a higher level. Although he had a noble status, the risks he faced were the same.
If I put myself and Chu Lan in the same situation as the brother and sister...
He would not hesitate to be a victim. To Cao Ning, family members are extremely precious.
However, Cao Ning did not expect that this dead living Buddha actually had descendants...
Then he said to Abbot Lin:
"Old Lin, you wouldn't just talk about this one thing, right?"
Abbot Lin turned his head and looked at the vast night. The miserable moonlight continued to cover the entire square. He said in a heavy voice:
"My senior brother... the deceased living Buddha, was originally called Qingwu, and was not a native of Tubo. He was from Xishan before entering Tubo, and chose to become a monk after his wife died."
Cao Ning rubbed his chin. No wonder the sisters’ surnames were Qing. This was not surprising.
A trace of nostalgia rose in Lin's eyes, and he clasped his hands together and said slowly:
"When my senior brother first came to Tubo, the master was unwilling to accept him as a disciple because he still had attachments to the secular world. He knelt in the center of the square for three days without eating a drop of water or a grain of rice."
"What all the masters and uncles didn't expect was that Senior Brother could actually feel the Buddha's light. This identity means that Senior Brother is the next Living Buddha!"
"The inheritance of the Living Buddha has been broken for three or four hundred years, and the inheritance of Tubo has also been lost bit by bit because the Living Buddha cannot be found! Because only those who can perceive the Buddha's light can understand the mysteries in the murals!"
"Finally, for the sake of Tubo... the master accepted me as his disciple. Because of my age, I became the eldest disciple! In these hundred years, I have witnessed the unprecedented prosperity and revival of Tubo!"
As he spoke, Abbot Lin pointed to the Tibetan people kneeling in the square and said with a relieved tone:
“This is his story…”
Cao Ning nodded and said bluntly:
"Old Lin, let's get to the point. I'm not interested in listening to your useless stories."
The inheritance of the living Buddha of Tubo is not important to him at all.
What will happen to Tubo in the future has nothing to do with Cao Ning. He came to Tubo just for the relics and does not want to get involved in these old matters.
Besides, his relationship with Old Man Lin was not so close that he had to do this.
Moral kidnapping has no effect on Cao Ning.
Because of the so-called moral standards...
It’s Cao Ning’s own standard!
Abbot Lin looked at Cao Ning with his cloudy eyes, like an old man in his twilight years, and said with a feeble sigh:
"In the past 103 years, I have experienced all the ups and downs of life, and seen the fickleness of the world. In this world..."
As he spoke, he pointed his finger at his face covered with age spots and said slowly:
"The scenery I was looking forward to is also kept in my mind. Even if I die now, I will have no regrets. But what I can never let go of is the Tibetan revived by my senior brother! And the bloodline of my senior brother."
He put his hands down in front of Cao Ning, stared at him with his cloudy eyes, and said in a humble tone:
"I thought a lot yesterday and realized that leaving Qingliu in Luosi not only restricted her own life, but also realized that this matter would be exposed sooner or later."
Cao Ning guessed hesitantly and said:
"You want me to take Qingliu down the mountain?"
Abbot Lin bowed deeply to Cao Ning. His 103-year-old body looked like a burnt-out candle in the wind, as if it would go out at any moment.
Abbot Lin stood up straight, looked straight at Cao Ning, and said in an excited tone:
"Yes! I'm begging you now! As a grandfather, can you bring Qingliu down the mountain?"
As he spoke, he pointed his dull thumb at the entire square and said sincerely:
"As long as you agree to this request, and as long as I am alive, and do not endanger the lives of the Tibetan people, the entire Tibetan people will always be your backer! Even if you want to be the chairman of Nadutong, I will be the first to stand up and support you!"
This consideration must be made after careful consideration!
There are so many people from outside who are spying on the Living Buddha!
This broken body has not been able to protect the siblings for several years. If anything unexpected happens, not only will the inheritance of Tubo be cut off...
How will I face my deceased senior brother after I die?
This is his only bloodline!
The little girl following Cao Ning and calling him "husband" and the terrifying guard beside him can definitely protect Qing Liu's safety!
And that little girl seems to like Qingliu very much, so...
I feel relieved now!
Xu Si was immediately frightened by this action. Abbot Lin's words and actions sounded as if he was about to die.
If you really think so, you are too naive. After all, he has practiced for more than a hundred years...
Although the Qi in this body may have declined a little due to age, it is definitely not much!
