The specific idea is that the boy first climbs up the rope to the temple, ties one end of the rope into a knot on a temple pillar (so that the rope can bear the weight of an adult), and then Ru Hai slowly climbs up by himself.
According to Ru Hai, his ancestor lives in the temple in heaven, so he wants to go up and take a look no matter what.
The busy old man thought he could help, so he asked his grandson to climb up the rope again halfway to determine the location of the temple - it was right above a nearby mountain.
Ru Hai immediately thanked him profusely, but unexpectedly the three of them encountered a group of robbers.
In the panic, Master Ru Hai managed to escape with his amazing leg strength, but the poor grandfather and grandson fell into the hands of thieves.
Then something magical happened, the 'robbers' took off their wigs and it turned out that they were all monks in disguise.
The leading monk called himself "Rukong" and was Ruhai's senior brother.
As for why he pretended to be a robber to scare his fellow apprentice away...
"Ru Hai has evil intentions, we must not let him see the master!"
The great monk Rukong promised a generous reward, hoping that the grandfather and grandson could help him climb up to the temple in the sky.
Seeing that the monks were so numerous and powerful, the old man had to agree.
Everyone immediately changed their route and headed straight for the nearby mountain.
Just when we were about to arrive, something unexpected happened.
......................
"Master Ru Hai brought government officials to arrest the bandits, and the monks all ran away in panic."
The boy looked helpless: "But I don't know what went wrong. The leading military officer arrested me and my grandfather and put them in jail..."
"What happened next?" The car owner was so excited that he couldn't help but urge him.
"Later, that night, Master Ru Hai came to the cell with the key and secretly released us. He wanted us to go up the mountain with him, but my grandfather took me and ran away halfway."
This is really bizarre. A group of monks are fighting for a temple that is floating in the air...?
The car owner suddenly slapped his head and said with wide eyes: "Wow, it turns out that the legend of the Hanging Temple is true!"
Tangtang is from Wu, so of course she doesn’t know what the Hanging Temple is.
The grandfather and grandson traveled around and performed everywhere. They were not locals here, so they didn't know this legend.
Seeing the three people looking at him eagerly, the car owner laughed and signaled the grandfather and grandson to get in the car and hide in the thatch pile.
"I believe you. Don't let those monks catch you again. Get in the car first!"
Chapter 090 Why Not Go Together
In Sang Country where Buddhism is strong, there are many legends of Arhats and Bodhisattvas in various places, and the Hanging Temple is one of them.
According to the legend, there was a monk named "Guangji" who made a great wish to build a Guangji Temple to help all the poor people in Sang Kingdom.
Master Guangji and his followers spent more than ten years of hard work to build the temple.
On the day the temple was completed, countless poor people flocked to it.
Master Guangji personally cooked a kind of "Luohan porridge", which is very filling and will keep you full for three days.
It was originally a good thing, but as time went by, things gradually changed.
Because not only poor people came, but ordinary people also pretended to be poor and came to drink porridge.
Moreover, many people would not leave after drinking the porridge, and would simply treat the temple as an inn or dining hall, lying there doing nothing all day, just looking forward to the meal being served.
One day, when everyone was waiting to eat porridge as usual, the whole temple suddenly shook violently.
The earthquake is coming!
Amidst the panic shouts, everyone rushed out of the temple.
After they all left, the entire temple suddenly rose from the ground, flew into the sky and disappeared without a trace.
"Rumor has it that Master Guangji was so disappointed that he flew away with the entire temple."
"After this story became widely known, the temple that flew to the sky was called the Hanging Temple."
After telling this story, the car owner added: "Later, the followers of the master rebuilt a temple on the original site of the temple, named Jikong Temple. Jikong Temple is very popular, but the monks there have a strong smell of money and do not look like monks at all."
I don’t know if it was because he simply couldn’t stand those monks, or if he had some grudge against Jikong Temple, but there was a hint of disdain in the man’s words.
............
The fields on both sides gradually disappeared, and the road suddenly became wide open.
The little girl had sharp eyes and saw from afar a group of monks blocking the way ahead.
If any ox cart, horse cart, or donkey cart passed by, they would definitely go up and interrogate them thoroughly before letting them pass.
"There are people from Jikong Temple ahead!"
The little girl made this judgment based on the experiences of the grandfather and grandson and the story of the Hanging Temple.
"where?"
"It's right in front. Tangtang can see far, so he can't be wrong."
The car owner nodded and continued to drive forward at a leisurely pace.
"We're going to be caught by them soon, why don't you change the route?" Tangtang asked curiously.
"No need. My temper is as bad as my age. I will get angry if I get whipped. Just wait and see how I get through this."
The man was full of confidence, and the others in the car didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, this old cow had a bad temper. When it got close to the monks, the man whipped it lightly with a whip. It immediately mooed and rushed forward.
"Make way——"
The monks didn't dare to stop the angry ox and could only watch the ox cart pass by.
"Ah, they are catching up." The little girl warned loudly.
"Haha, four legs must run faster than two legs. They can't catch up."
Tangtang thought this made sense, but in fact the monks did catch up with them, and were getting closer and closer.
"bad"
The owner looked back and said anxiously, "They are almost caught up. If my cow was a few years younger, I would definitely be able to shake them off!"
After hearing this, the grandfather and grandson could no longer hide in the thatched pile.
The two men immediately jumped under the car. The grandfather was fine and stood firm after staggering a few steps. However, his grandson sprained his ankle and sat on the ground crying loudly.
..............
"You bunch of monks always bully us, an old man and a child!"
The old man glared at Ru Hai who was chasing him. Ru Hai waved his hands and said, "Ru Hai wanted to ask you two for a favor from the beginning. If it weren't for my senior brother getting in the way, things would never have gotten to this point."
"My grandson has broken his foot. Master, please have mercy on us and let us go. We don't want to get involved in the affairs of Jikong Temple."
After the old man scolded angrily, he begged for mercy in the blink of an eye.
These days, he has been involved in robbery and jail. He is already old and can't stand any more trouble.
"This..." Ru Hai looked embarrassed. At this time, Tangtang also jumped out of the car and ran over here.
"Stop arguing and send him to town to see a doctor first!"
Pointing at the boy who was still crying, Tangtang said angrily.
"Yes, yes, yes, let's send the little donor to see a doctor first."
Ru Hai called on the monks to help the boy onto the ox cart. At this moment, another group of monks rushed over aggressively.
"Like the sea!"
"Like the sky?"
As soon as the two brothers met, the atmosphere became tense.
"Rukong, you are so shameless. A monk actually pretends to be a robber and robs people!"
"You have no shame. You bribed the soldiers and the jailers. Bah."
Ru Hai was immediately furious: "I bribed the soldiers? Ha, after General Ma recognized you, he didn't arrest anyone and sent the two donors to jail. Who is he......"
"Stop making noise!"
Tangtang punched Ruhai and Rukong with her little fists: "Send him to see a doctor first—"
...........
It would be best if we could decide the winner on the spot, and then the winner could take the person away.
But the number of monks coming from both sides is almost the same, and Ru Hai and Ru Kong are not sure, so they should send the boy to see a doctor first.
They were silent all the way until they arrived at the clinic and saw the doctor. The little girl couldn't help but ask Ru Hai, "Since you all want to see the master, why don't you go together?"
"Rukong is like a bandit. How can such a person go to pay homage to the master?" Ruhai said with great displeasure.
"Hahahaha, Junior Brother, you are so hypocritical!"
Rukong said disdainfully: "I won't hide it anymore now. Actually..."
In fact, a few days ago, an evil star came to Jikong Temple. Not only did he beat up the abbot as soon as they met, but he also refused to leave the temple and boasted that he wanted to meet Master Guangji.
Just when all the monks in the temple were suffering, Ru Hai went outside to relax and unexpectedly saw a performance of the rope show.
After the boy climbed up to the sky, he actually saw the Hanging Temple. Ru Hai, who had originally just treated the story of the Hanging Temple as a story, was suddenly overjoyed.
Under the pretext of inviting the old man to be a guest in the temple, he kept hinting at the old man halfway through, asking him to take the initiative to display his unique skill of pulling the rope to the sky, so as to truly determine the location of the Hanging Temple.
If everything had gone well, Ru Hai would have climbed up to the Hanging Temple to ask the founder of the temple to drive away the bad guys, and then his own reputation would have soared, and he would have become the next abbot a few years later.
But it happened that Ru Hai was not the only monk watching the performance at that time. When Ru Kong got the news, he led the monks to put on wigs and kidnapped the grandfather and grandson without saying a word. This led to a series of events that followed.
"Tangtang thinks that you should climb up together."
“Then whoever can invite the master back will be the winner,” the little girl said seriously.
Chapter 091 Flying to the sky
What the little girl said was indeed a method. Ru Hai and Ru Kong looked at each other and couldn't help thinking about it.
"That Rukong has a bandit-like air, he doesn't look like a monk at all. What kind of person is the Patriarch? There is no way he would invite him back."
"That Ru Hai is so hypocritical that it makes people hate him. The master is so wise! He must have seen through him at a glance."
Seeing that the two were silent, Tangtang couldn't help but ask, "How about it, do you think Tangtang's method will work?"
"row x 2"
That's good, the problem is finally solved.
When Tangtang was thinking this, Ruhai suddenly looked at her with a smile.
"Little donor, we still need your help."
The boy sprained his ankle and couldn't climb the rope. There happened to be a Tangtang here, so Ruhai wanted to ask her to do it for him.
"Tangtang can't climb the rope, and doesn't want to help you."
The little girl has always been willing to help others, but she couldn't stand Ru Hai and Ru Kong's bad behavior, so she didn't want to help them this time.
"No need to climb. In fact, just tie the rope around your waist and I can play the flute to take you up...ahem, to the Hanging Temple." The old man said quickly.
Before, Tangtang had always insisted on sending people to see a doctor first, so the old man’s grandson could receive treatment in time.
From this point of view, the little girl helped them.
But there are only a few people in the world who can clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment. Although Tangtang helped, in order to resolve this troublesome matter as soon as possible, the old man chose to speak for Ruhai.
"Why not tie a rope around their waists and send them up to heaven with the flute?"
Why is this so weird?
Ru Hai's mouth twitched, and then he smiled and said, "We are too heavy, and the rope can't send us up. Little donor, if you miss this chance, you will never see such a wonder as the Hanging Temple again in your life. Don't you really want to see it from the sky?"
............
Tangtang has had several flying experiences, but the most amazing one was just flying down from a mountain.
