Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 1794 It Wasn't an Old Monk

Liu Ya said: "I don't know these rules very well, I'm afraid I'll offend the Buddha. I'll add some sesame oil money instead of going in to offer incense." After finishing speaking, she took out a silver ticket and handed it up with both hands.

Unexpectedly, the little novice saw the banknote but did not reach out to take it. Instead, he shook his head, bowed to the Buddha with one hand, and said: "Amitabha Buddha. Please put this banknote away. There are no other shops on this mountain." , what is the use of this bank note?"

Liu Ya was taken aback when she heard this, and then asked curiously: "There is no shop on the mountain, you can go down the mountain to buy it. But there is no money, how can I buy rice and noodles, what to eat, what to drink?"

The little novice recited the Buddha again, and said: "If we need rice and noodles, let's go down the mountain for alms. There is a small vegetable field in the backyard. Master and senior brothers and I can grow it ourselves. It is enough. There is also a mountain spring in the back mountain. The spring water is clear and sweet. You don’t have to worry about food and drink, this silver ticket is really useless. Please take back the love of the female benefactor.”

It was only then that Liu Ya knew that this Shengyuan Temple was not one of those temples that were only for sesame oil money, presumably that Zen Master Ku Mo was also a real ascetic monk.

Cang Qianche stepped forward and pressed the silver ticket in Liu Ya's hand, and said, "Ya'er, take it back. The Zen master and the little master would not want these vulgar things. If you have the heart, I will accompany you to the mountain for a while. Turn around, pick some herbs and bring them back, this is our sincerity to the Buddha."

Liu Ya nodded after listening, then turned to look at the little novice, asking what he meant.

The little novice nodded and said: "The benefactor Cang is right. We don't accept money in this temple, but the food and herbs donated by the benefactor are all needed."

Liu Ya nodded and took the bank note, and bowed sincerely towards the main hall.

The little novice took Liu Ya, Cang Qianche and the others to the Zen room in the backyard to rest.

Sure enough, there is a small vegetable garden in the backyard, which is lush and green. There are many kinds of rapeseed, cauliflower, eggplant, radish, and cabbage planted in it.

However, the garden is not very big, so it can be seen that there are not many monks in this temple.Otherwise, the little novice would not have said just now that self-growing and self-eating are enough.

Everyone sat down, and the little novice brought a pot of white tea.This white tea is actually boiled water, and the word "tea" is used to show respect.

Liu Ya and the others each poured a glass to drink. Although it was just boiled water, it tasted sweet, soft and fresh. It seems that the spring water in the back mountain is really good.

After sitting like this for a while, before half an hour passed, I heard footsteps outside.

The little monk said: "My senior brother is here." He went out to welcome him.

Then I heard someone outside asking: "Who is here?" The little novice replied: "It's the benefactor."

Then I saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old monk walking in.Thin and tall, with a very delicate appearance.

As soon as he entered the door, he clasped his hands together, chanted the Buddha's name, and said, "Everyone, my master just finished his homework, so I'll go and tell him right away."

Cang Qianche hurriedly got up and walked over, saying: "Little Master Yuan Su, please tell Zen Master Ku Mo that Master Qingyu from the Mu family is here. Besides, my wife has something to ask to see Zen Master."

Yuan Su nodded after hearing this, looked at Mu Qingyu, then at Liu Ya, and gestured to them.Then he made a Buddhist ceremony with everyone, and then turned around and left.

After waiting for a while, Yuan Su came back and said, "Master has invited. However, only Lord Cang and your wife are invited."

After hearing this, Liu Ya stood up, gave Qiuying a look, and told her not to worry, just go and see for herself.

Qiuying nodded in response, but she didn't seem too impatient.

After all, Zen Master Kumo is Mu Qingyu's uncle and the head of the Mu family. Even if she is in a hurry, she has nothing to do, so she can only wait here for news from Liu Ya.

The meditation room of Zen Master Ku Mo is not far from the room where they rested. After going out the door, turn right, walk along the wall for a dozen steps, and you will see an independent hut, which is so simple that there is no door or window, and only a few panels are hung. Straw curtains hung over the door and windows.

Because the curtain was drawn down, Liu Ya couldn't see what was going on in the room.But just looking at this hut, which is not much bigger than an ordinary kitchen, Liu Ya couldn't help being curious.

It's strange why this Zen master Kumo wants to torture himself so much?Is it considered pious to cultivate to such a degree?

Yuan Su went forward, stood at the door and called "Master", then raised the curtain and invited Liu Ya and the others to enter.

It wasn't very dark in the room, but it was a bit cool.This house is so cold in summer, I don't know how this Zen master Kumo survived in winter again on the mountain.

Once inside, the room is simple as hell.Needless to say, furniture or something, there are no beds.

There is only a straw mat in the corner, and there are two straw mats on it, which should be laid one by one and covered by the other.Not even the bedding was used, which surprised Liu Ya again.

There are no tables and chairs, and there are a few straw futons on the ground, that's all.

And on one of the futons, a monk was sitting.Because he was sitting facing the wall, he couldn't see his face clearly.Just from the back view, it is very thin, but the shoulders are broad and the figure is tall.Presumably when he was young, he should have been a tall and straight person with a beautiful skeleton.

Yuan Su didn't come in, but after Liu Ya and Cang Qianche knelt down on the two futons, he lowered the curtain and stood at the door.

Cang Qianche spoke first: "Zen Master, I'm here. It's just my wife Guya."

Because Liu Ya has recognized her ancestors, she should have the surname "Gu".But it was the first time Cang Qianche introduced her first and last name formally.

Liu Ya bowed to the monk's back and saluted, "Hello, Zen Master Kumo. I really want to ask for something."

Zen Master Kumo gave a "hmm".Only then did he support the ground with his hands, and sat on the futon without moving, but saw him slowly turning around with the futon.

When Zen Master Ku Mo turned around, Liu Ya saw his appearance clearly, and couldn't help sighing in her heart: What a handsome man!
When Liu Ya heard the title "Zen Master Ku Mo", she naturally thought that this should be an old monk, a well-educated monk.Probably also have long and white eyebrows, wrinkled face, and hands like dead bark.

But when she really saw this Zen Master Kumo clearly, she was really amazed at the peerless appearance of this man.

Although it is disrespectful, the only word to describe this Kumo Zen Master is "peerless".

Although he looked to be in his forties, and he had been a vegetarian all year round, his complexion was bad, and he was extremely thin, but it still couldn't conceal the delicacy and beauty of his facial features.

It is conceivable that this Zen master Kumo must have been a charming and charming young man when he was young and before he became a monk.

　There was a lot of snow in Harbin, especially heavy.Like the fluff of a goose feather, there is a thick layer of white on the ground, which is beautiful and colder.Love you guys, remember to vote.It's so cold, Xiangzi doesn't have a cotton jacket yet.
