That temple that person

All conditioned dharmas are like dream bubbles, dew and electricity, and should be viewed in this way.

In the evening, I thought of this sentence. The cicadas outside the window were noisy for a while and then fell silent. Unlike the misty rain of apricot blossoms that year, the teacher in the twilight could no longer wave his stick at me. I didn’t know he was gone. where.My stomach seemed to be collapsing again, I opened the door and walked out.

With the sunset glow, a gray shadow jumped over the wall like lightning.I stand here and he falls there.My eyes were glued to the bulging thing that the little novice was carrying, and his gaze was fixed on me viciously.The two sides were speechless, and the undercurrent was still surging.I carefully considered my words: "You, this is, stole something?"

I was too blunt after all.The little novice's face turned red and white, as if Sichuan had changed his face, and he snorted heavily as if he became angry from embarrassment. With his small body carrying a mountain of packages, he walked towards the kitchen.

I watched his heavy back under the setting sun, and suddenly had the illusion that I had bullied a child, and wanted to go forward to say something, but I was afraid that he would just say to me without raising his head: Get out.

I sneaked into the kitchen step by step, pretending to look around.The little novice regarded me as nothing, and silently put a bundle of sweet potatoes, a few handfuls of green onions, and a bag of rice on the stove. I glanced at his feet, and a few hot steamed buns rolled down here and there.Taking advantage of the time when the little novice was still taking things out of the package, I lifted the rice bucket in the kitchen to have a look. Sure enough, there was not even a single grain of rice, as clean as if it had been licked.

I don't know what to say.From the standpoint of me, a rice bug, it seems that I should not say anything.I wished I could disappear like a puff of green smoke, but the little novice stopped me angrily: "Hey, don't tell me what happened today."

I rolled my eyeballs: "Then talk to me more politely?" The little devil rolled his eyes and said, "When can you stay away from my elder brother? I will call you a benefactor when I go out." " I spread my hands, looking very innocent: "Why do you always think that I will harm your elder brother?" The little novice no longer bothered to talk to me, and continued to bend down to dig things, seeing that the package would also see the bottom.

At the dinner table, I ate carelessly, picking up wisps of sauerkraut with my chopsticks and throwing them into my mouth, chewing them crisply.Looking out of the corner of the eye, the little novice's knife-like eyes pierced my heart from the edge of the bowl.I didn't care, I was full and courageous.Finally, I wiped my mouth and said, "I'm going out tomorrow, so I don't need to prepare mine for lunch."

Sha Hua gently put down his chopsticks, and made a light ding-dong sound on the rim of the elegant bowl.His face was glowing faintly in the candlelight, he dazzled my eyes, and the look in my eyes couldn't be seen clearly: "The benefactor has something to do?"

I bared my teeth and smiled: "Ah, I've been here for so long without seeing the sun, it's killing me." Shahua remained silent, so I added: "I'll come back after shopping, and soon, it will be everywhere. Just walk around and see."

The little novice could be heard muttering in his ears: "It's better not to come back!"

The sky is bright, the golden sun is covering the world of mortals, and people are coming and going on Fulu Street in Yongchang Town.I patted my quaint Taoist uniform in the dust raised by the occasional passing carriage, and flipped through the almanac in my hand with seriousness, which read: It is appropriate to go out, make friends, and seek business.

The wind blew past, shaking my signboard with the iron mouth broken.

Not long after, a middle-aged man with a sluggish expression sat down in front of me, and muffledly spit out three words: "Ask about marriage." Twisting his beard, he smiled slightly: "Your Excellency, why do you need to ask about marriage? It's hard to resist." The man's eyes lit up immediately, and his words became excited: "Sir, you are really a master!"

I looked into the distance, just smiled, didn't answer, and pretended to be very inscrutable.The man rummaged through his sleeves for a long while, and then he pulled out a few hard copper plates, with a flattering smile on his face: "Sir, tell me more." I put the copper plates away one by one, and said casually: "Your Excellency thinks Which one is a good marriage?" The man's expression became more and more excited, and he shook his swollen pig's head and began to babble: "Sir, you are really clever! You are brilliant! The Hedong lion in my family has been around for two years. I want to take a concubine...and Xiaoyue, who has hanged himself eight times this month, eight times! It's the woman in my family...do you have any good plans, sir?"

Based on the principle that I would rather demolish a temple than destroy a family relationship, I said to him: "I see that Your Excellency's Yintang has turned black, so you should return home quickly at this time, otherwise there may be bloodshed." A sturdy figure in the crowd not far away shrank his neck and fled in a hurry.That look of crawling and rolling is really funny.I sighed leisurely towards the sky of the small town: "Sure enough, no matter how many years have passed, no matter where you are, people's thoughts are still those thoughts, those messy things, they never stop."

As soon as I finished sighing, there was a commotion in the bustling street.Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, there was a gust of wind sweeping in front of the stall.My eyes followed the gray figure running left and right like a monkey, wondering which little thief was caught again.

Before he recovered, another one came after him.He appeared in my field of vision like a light in the darkness.

Not only me, this person seems to be able to attract the attention of the entire street.Is it because he held a bundle of strange noodles high in his hands and swung them wildly above his head?Is it because he looks like a clean boy, exuding a natural nobility in the market?

I sniffed, and it seemed that there was a faint fresh breath of camellia.The voice in the ear gradually flew away: "You have the ability to eat the king's meal! If you have the ability, don't run away!"

The nearby peddlers all whispered: "Even the backboard stalls dare to eat the king's meal, how brave..."

Street anecdote, I heard it by chance.I bowed my head and silently counted my copper coins, converting them into big white steamed buns in my heart.The world is difficult. If you are not in charge of your family, you really don’t know how expensive rice is. All the meals I wasted have become extravagant delicacies.As I counted, there seemed to be something moving quietly under my feet.

I remained calm, put the copper plate into my pocket with one hand, and pulled out the thing underneath with the other, and soon there was a familiar begging voice: "Master, no, Daxian! Please help me, help me! Please let me Just hide, just hide!"

I raised my head and met the man's gaze. The man was taken aback for a moment, and stammered, "It's you?" Then the man quickly hugged my arm, crying with snot and tears: "It's really hard to meet you." Great! My life is saved!"

I was silent for a while, and said: "Wan, Jin, Bao?"

"Hey, it's me, brother, it's great that your eyes can see!"

"Return the food you took along first."

Wan Jinbao pressed the beard that was about to fall off his lips, and pretended to be my nurse: "Hey, master! The calculation is too accurate, thank you so much, master! A small amount of money is not a respect!" Treating real customers After leaving, he came back from a circle outside, tore off his beard, squatted on the ground and looked around, with unconcealable tension in his eyes.I couldn't help joking when I saw the way he stood between his two legs: "I heard that you ate the Overlord's meal?" Wan Jinbao seemed to have a psychological shadow, and his face was full of fear: "Yes, yes, I have never seen it before. He was so fierce, he chased me for several blocks! I just went back and checked, if he is not there, is he hiding somewhere, planning to beat me to death?" Wan Jinbao's face turned pale, fine sweat gathered on his brows The pearl will fall but not fall.

I comforted him: "Isn't it just a noodle seller, who can kill you?" He shook his head, rubbed his hands and muttered to himself: "You don't understand, you don't understand how terrifying that person is!"

"So you are here."

Wan Jinbao and I froze at the same time.I stared at the busy street in front of me, and there was nothing in front of my stall.I look up to the sky.No way, obviously there is sunshine, but in broad daylight can you still see ghosts?

Neither Wan Jinbao nor I moved.A figure swayed towards me, with a livid face: "I didn't expect you to be here to cheat and kidnap." When I met the knife's eyes, I was speechless, but it was a pity that Wan Jinbao couldn't restrain himself. Mouth: "Scared me to death, it turns out that the little master is too short and is blocked by the table..."

Wan Jinbao rubbed his head, squatted on the ground in pain and wrinkled his face into a persimmon skin.I shook the money bag in front of the little novice a couple of times, and said, "Hey, enough for half a month." The little novice didn't speak, but looked at me with contemptuous eyes.I sighed: "Otherwise? You can't steal too much when you are outside. If you are found out, report it to your senior brother. It will be very difficult."

Two hours had passed since noon.Wan Jinbao fell asleep on the table, drooling.Sitting next to me, the little novice slapped me cheekily with his eyeballs: "Why is there no one here? Is it because your tricks have been seen through?"

I shook my head and said that if someone found out, the stall would have been smashed.Seeing Wan Jinbao snoring soundly, I pushed him to wake up, his misty eyes met and we both woke up immediately, the little novice pointed at him: "You, go and see what's going on." After a while, Wan Jinbao ran away. He came back and said, "No, there's a steamed stuffed bun shop in front of you, and there's a fortune-telling stall." After speaking, he burped.

I surveyed the terrain this morning, and I came here only after seeing that no one had a fortune-telling stall on this street.Why did one pop up all of a sudden?This is really a Cheng Yaojin halfway through.Sitting here is also boring, so I simply followed Wan Jinbao to the front to have a look at the scenery.The little novice at the back looked very awkward, saying that he would not go, but his eyes were still fixed on the direction we were going.

I don’t know if I don’t look at it, but I’m startled when I see it.The stall is not big, but surrounded by a bunch of men, women and children, as devout as worshiping Buddha.Wan Jinbao and I lined up behind, Wan Jinbao whispered to me: "Brother, don't be afraid, this must be a charlatan!"

When it was our turn, our legs were already sore.The fortune teller raised his face, a pair of big eyes shining like stars on his white face.For some reason, I somehow felt a little familiar, especially the smile hidden in those eyes, which made my hair stand on end and made me very uncomfortable.I suppressed this strange feeling and sat down calmly. Wan Jinbao behind me slapped the table in a rough voice, and said fiercely: "My elder brother asked about the marriage. If there is half of it wrong, be careful of your dog's life!"

Hearing this made me feel embarrassed.The fortune-teller glanced at his fierce face, and said with a smile, "Let's talk about you first. I see that your seal is black, and if you don't leave quickly, there may be bloodshed." Wan Jinbao looked around twice, muttering: "Who are you scaring..." Suddenly I saw something, my whole body trembled violently, and my mouth began to lose control: "Brother, I'm sorry, I, I, I, I need to pee, I'll walk first..." The whole person is like a buttock As if on fire, Fei Ye got into the crowd and quickly disappeared.

"After talking about his, let's talk about mine." Xiao Tianlong appeared out of nowhere, and threw two copper coins onto the table.The fortune teller looked at Tianlong with a smile, with an interesting look purely at children.I don't know why, but it still makes me uncomfortable.The man slowly put away the copper plate: "Little master is not suitable to stay in the pure place of Buddhism. You may be happy in the rivers and lakes, so you can let the dragon roam." After finishing speaking, he handed the copper plate to Tianlong, and said with a smile: "Today is fate, no money for fortune-telling , Little master, don't smash my stall."

Xiao Tianlong seemed to want to say something, so I stood up and coughed twice: "It's getting late, don't forget." I turned around to leave, and the man said slowly: "About your marriage, hehe, or Go to the Buddha and ask for it, don’t lose it, don’t forget it.”

After walking a long distance, I turned around and saw the man crossing his legs, and an old potato seller sitting in front of the stall, chatting very enthusiastically there.I still can't figure out where I saw this person, maybe it's my own illusion, maybe it's just because that person has bad intentions when looking at people, just like the teacher I used to teach.

Before the Bai family was ransacked, he also said that he would go back to the countryside to see his grandson. When the house was ransacked, he didn't know if he had time to run away.

The setting sun paved the stone steps in front of the mountain, and there was a figure on the stone steps.The little novice and I were lingering in the sunset, Tianlong held the money bag in his hand, my hand shrank back, and the package in my hand was full of my business.I looked at Sha Hua, and I pulled my stiff lips, wanting to smile.

Sha Hua said nothing, turned and entered the temple.
