Chapter 50

In the academy, the Master is talking about 'Kua Fu Chasing the Sun'.

Feng Langqu said, "Although Kuafu failed to catch up with the sun in the end, the spirit of perseverance is worthy of awe. As the saying goes, perseverance is the most important thing in everything, and those who want to achieve great things should have the perseverance of Kuafu."

The master nodded.

Liu Mu laughed suddenly, and the Master was confused by Liu Mu's smile, so, "Liu Mu, what are you laughing at?"

Liu Mu smiled and said, "Feng Lanmaggot, you really know how to flatter the ancients. If you want me to say that this Kuafu is just out of his mind."

The master scolded, "Liu Mu, you are not allowed to talk nonsense in class."

Liu Mu said, "Master, I'm not talking nonsense. You see, Kuafu ran east in the morning and west at night, and he was exhausted after running around. Every fool knows that the sun is not something that ordinary people can control." You can catch up and catch it. Maybe you want everyone to learn the spirit of Kuafu who doesn’t think long, and does not think about things before doing things. If you only do useless work towards an impossible goal, it will be nothing in the end. Exhausting myself and getting nothing. I really don't understand why such a no-brainer story is worth mentioning."

The face of the master changed several times, "Liu Mu, you go out and sweep the leaves in the front yard."

Feng Langqu looked at Yu Wanran, "Although Kuafu lacked consideration in what he did, I would rather be like Kuafu, in order to pursue what I love, even if it costs my life."

Yu Wanran said, "But knowing it's futile but still doing that, wouldn't it be too stupid."

Feng Langqu looked serious, "Brother Yu certainly won't understand that some people are very important to me, and they are worth my life in vain."

Yu Wanran only smiled politely and ignored Feng Langqu.

Zeng Qing said to Han Ce, "My master is really brainless, but I think Brother Liu's words are very reasonable."

Han Ce nodded, "Although Liu Mu's opinion is a bit subversive of tradition, it's true when you think about it carefully. The sun hangs thousands of miles above the ground, and it's beyond the reach of mortals. If you want to catch the sun, It is futile."

Seeing that the yard was almost swept and no one was paying attention, Liu Mu left the broom and sneaked to the back mountain.

Liu Mu sat by the fire, tore off a chicken wing, and before he could put it in his mouth, he suddenly heard the whirring of leaves around him, and saw a figure running down from the opposite tree as if he was stepping on the trunk and parallel to the ground. As soon as the man stepped on the ground, the leaves on the ground seemed to be blown up by the wind. Before Liu Mu could see what was going on, he saw the strange man squatting in front of him.The man looked to be in his thirties, with loose hair and a tattered monk's robe.The man sniffed hard, looked salivating, and casually brushed his loose hair, "Did you bake this chicken?" Although the man was talking to Liu Mu, his eyes were still on Liu Mu's hand. grilled chicken on.

"Are you... a person?" Liu Mu looked at the strange man in front of him vigilantly, remembering the story that Butler Liu told about wild men in the old forests deep in the north.

The strange man said, "Do you think I look like a ghost?"

"Ha..." Liu Mu tried to stay calm, gave a smirk, and looked at the monk's robe on the other party, "Then you are a monk?"

"That's right." The weirdo nodded.

"If it's a monk, why does he still have hair?" Liu Mu said while pulling at the man's hair.

The weirdo said disdainfully, "The hair is the same as the eyes and ears. They are all skins. It doesn't matter if you have hair or not."

"You are from Huguo Temple? Why have I never seen you before?"

"I...my level is too low, of course you have never seen me."

Seeing that the monk was very sloppy, Liu Mu said, "Looking at your shabby clothes, you must be a sweeping monk or something."

"That's right, I'm a floor sweeping monk. Also, don't tell others that you've seen me."

"I don't even know who you are, so of course I won't tell others. If you break into the forbidden area of ​​the back mountain, aren't you afraid that the abbot will find out and get punished?"

The monk smiled and said, "If you don't tell me, or I don't tell you, who will know?"

Liu Mu smiled and gave the monk half a chicken.

The monk took a hard bite, "Hmm! It's delicious! It's the first time I've eaten such a delicious roast chicken."

"It seems that you are not only a crazy monk, but also a wine and meat monk."

The monk asked Liu Mu again, "Are you a student of Huguo Temple Academy?"

Liu Mu nodded, and the monk said, "Meat is not allowed in the academy, so you came here to steal meat too."

Liu Mu said, "Animals will die sooner or later. If you don't eat them, you will starve to death. Wouldn't that be the same as killing yourself! Besides, the Buddha's heart remains in the heart of wine and meat. It doesn't matter what you eat."

"Good boy, you have the root of wisdom!" The crazy monk took a sip of the wine from the gourd on his waist, and Liu Mu's eyes lit up and said, "There is still wine!" He snatched the monk's gourd, "It's been a long time since I came to Huguo Temple Haven't had a drink!"

The two ate their mouths full of oil, grabbing wine for a while, grabbing meat for a while, and in the end there was not even a chicken butt left.The monk rubbed his stomach and hiccupped, "I ate half of your chicken today, and I will pay you back a hundred times and a thousand times with interest in the future!"

"You pay me back a thousand times, and I don't want to be a farmer raising chickens, so why do you pay me back so much?"

The monk smiled, "What's your name?"

"My name is Willow."

The monk hurriedly turned his head and looked at Liu Mu carefully, "Are you the Liu Mu who burned the wooden Buddha of Jin'an Temple, scraped off the golden paint on the Buddha statues in the Main Hall, and sold the Jade Guanyin of the old man Fa Neng?" The monk nodded again after speaking. He said to himself, "No wonder, I'm afraid no one else would dare to sneak to the back mountain to eat meat except you."

Liu Mu was startled, "How do you know that I sold that Jade Avalokitesvara?"

The monk said, "I have many friends at the foot of the mountain. Of course we can find out about this."

"But the boss in that shop doesn't even know that I'm Liu Mu."

The monk smiled and said, "Of course I can't hide this little trick from me."

Liu Mu asked guiltily, "Then you wouldn't tell Master Jie Kong about this, would you?"

"Jie Kong? Don't worry about that bad-tempered guy who looks like a cesspit, I won't tell him." The crazy monk seemed to have seen his shadow in Liu Mu, and since the first time he saw Liu Mu, he liked it very much, or He said it with a bit of kindness, as if he had known him for a long time.

The crazy monk stood up, stretched his waist, and yawned again, "I'm full, I should go to sleep for a while. Liu Mu, when you come here to roast game again, don't forget to save some for me." The crazy monk walked with procrastinating steps, talking to himself as he walked, "Willow...why does it seem like I've heard this name before..." As he spoke, he didn't know where to go like a gust of wind.

Liu Mu burped, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, "How can the sweeping monk have such high martial arts! And he still has hair!" If it weren't for the bones left on the ground and the smell of wine in his mouth, Liu Mu would have suspected That crazy monk was simply his own illusion.

"Hui Hai, who should be the one with the highest martial arts in our temple?"

"Of course Abbot Motoji."

"Then besides Abbot Benji, who has the highest kung fu?"

"It should be the first uncle of the Arhat Hall to guard against anger. No, it should be the uncle of Xingchi Grand Master!"

Liu Mu knows that Huguo Temple's seniority is ranked according to "honesty, law, discipline and wisdom", but Liu Mu has never seen a monk of the Xing family for so long, and there is only one living person of the Fa family, Fa Neng. Chan Master Neng is over 60 years old now, wouldn't those of that generation be ten or twenty years older than him.Liu Mu asked again, "Then is there any sweeping monk in our temple who is very skilled?"

"The floor-sweeping monks are all made by disciples of the Hui family. Brother Huijing has the highest martial arts in the Hui family. But he is not a floor-sweeping monk, and there are very few of them who have good kung fu."

Liu Mu had met Hui Jing before, and Hui Jing's kung fu was no match for that crazy monk, so Liu Mu asked again, "Are there any monks in the monastery who practice with hair?"

"Practitioners with hair? If they are true monks, how can there be unshaved ones."

Liu Mu thought to himself, isn't that crazy monk from Huguo Temple?

Hui Hai said suddenly, "I remembered, I heard that Grand Master Xing Chi's uncle seems to be leading the practice."

Liu Mu asked, "This Xingzhi master must be very old. I have been here for so long and I don't know that there are still senior monks of Xingzi generation."

"The Xingzi generation is indeed very senior, and the grand master's uncle is not yet 40 years old."

"Shouldn't the line-writing generation be the apprentice of Abbot Benji? Abbot Benji is almost a hundred years old. How can there be such a young apprentice?"

Hui Hai said, "The Grand Master Xingchi's uncle was a child picked up by Abbot Benji at the foot of the mountain. Abbot Benji felt that he had a predestined relationship with that baby, so he took in another closed disciple when he was nearly seventy years old."

"But why haven't I seen it before?"

"Don't say you haven't seen it. I have lived in this temple for more than ten years and I have never seen Taishi Xingchi. I also heard about him from others. Uncle Xingchi Taishi is the most famous abbot Benji. My favorite apprentice, I have been practicing with Abbot Benji since I was a child. The two are called master and apprentice, but in fact they love each other like father and son. Uncle Xingchi Taishi was very smart since he was a child, and he is also a martial arts genius. I listen to the law Uncle Neng said that Grand Master Xingchi's uncle behaved differently from others since he was a child. He often made trouble in the temple. So you can't find any flaws. Many people thought that Grand Master Xingchi's uncle would be the next abbot in the future, but he left the temple suddenly more than ten years ago. When he came back, he became like this. He looks crazy, and his whereabouts are also erratic. No one knows what he has experienced outside, and why he became like this. Some people say that he has become obsessed with practicing kung fu. Come back and meet Abbot Benji, but others can't even catch his shadow."

Liu Mu thought about the appearance of that crazy monk again, could it be that he is the behavior idiot that Hui Hai talked about?
