Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 121, Traveling the World, Seeking Zen Principles
After arriving at the guest room, Monk Jiushan was a little curious, and slept in this guest room by himself, so where did the little girl sleep?
You must know that there are only three rooms here, and one of them has been transformed into a firewood room. It is impossible for the temple master to let the little girl sleep in the firewood room.

Is it
Monk Jiushan suddenly thought of something, his face turned red immediately, and he hurriedly recited the meditation mantra to clear his heart.

Looking at Monk Jiushan's expression, Li Yun also guessed something, and couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry.

"Little Junior Sister, she doesn't live in the Taoist temple"

"It's a sin, it's because the little monk has delusional thoughts, I hope the Buddha won't be blamed." Monk Jiushan folded his hands together, and hurriedly recited the sin.

After Li Yun made the old mattress out, he said curiously: "You are proficient in Buddhist philosophy, how can you commit false thoughts? Of course, Pindao is not blaming anything, but just curious."

This Jiushan monk looks about seventeen or eighteen years old, and he is at the age of youth. It is normal to have some mortal heart. If he is really like the 80-year-old monk, everyone will look at the stone. If so, that's not normal.

"I am not afraid of the Taoist priest's jokes when I say it. The monk is a monk who became a monk halfway. He became a monk because of some personal reasons." Monk Jiushan scratched his head and said, "As for the monk, I am an old man. When I was 14 years old, I became a monk. Parents died of old age, no relatives, no wealth, just a little beggar, living a muddle-headed life. Later, when begging, he was taken in by an old monk in the temple, and he became a monk logically. The monk also passed away, and the temple was given to my uncle, and myself, I also wanted to pursue my own Zen principles, so I started to travel around the world."

It is easy to say, but it is difficult to do. With a tin staff, a cassock, a string of beads, and some daily necessities, you dare to travel the world to seek Buddhist principles.

Li Yun admires such a person very much. For the goal in his heart, he walks the world without fear.

At this time, when Jiushan was sorting out the package, he still had a notebook and a ballpoint pen that was about to run dry.

After picking up the book, Jiushan opened the notebook, and there were rows of densely packed text on it. From Li Yun's point of view, these were undoubtedly rows of names.

After turning to many pages, Monk Jiushan wrote down six big characters [Sanqing Guanyun Daoist] on a blank page.

"This notebook records the people who have helped me, and there are people who have helped me. Only these, I dare not forget." Monk Jiushan smiled and said: "Speaking of it, there is also a paragraph in my dharma name. As for the story, when the master gave this dharma name back then, he said that I am a good person of the eighth generation. If I do great good deeds in this life, I will become a Buddha immediately. It’s really comfortable, and so is being helped.”

"Of course it's excellent." Li Yun smiled lightly.

Walk around the world, experience the various states of life, help others, and do good deeds to accumulate virtue.

Li Yun felt that in this world, there were not only people who showed kindness to Monk Jiushan, but also many people who did malicious things. After all, strictly speaking, the difference between alms and begging is that it sounds a little nicer.

But this monk Jiushan only remembered the goodwill of others, not the malice, and walked the world with a pure and natural heart all the time.

"Tomorrow morning, the poor monk will leave the Taoist temple, and won't cause too much trouble to Taoist Master Yun." Monk Jiushan put his hands together and said.

Li Yun also nodded, and then said: "Then you should rest early."

Jiu Shan smiled kindly.

Looking at the Nine Virtuous Monk, Li Yun suddenly remembered the origin of his Dharma name, Nine Virtuous Nine Virtuous Ones, one more good deeds in one life can immediately become a Buddha.

Is the eighth generation a good person?
Li Yun didn't intend to resist his curiosity, so he quietly opened his eyes and looked at Monk Jiushan who was arranging his clothes and quilts.

I saw the golden light of merit and virtue surrounded my body, piercing Li Yun's three eyes with slight pain, and the bursts of Sanskrit sounds were like a big Lu Hongzhong, shaking people's hearts.

And behind this golden light of merit
It is a big Buddha, a golden Buddha!

Li Yun's expression was a little stunned.

He is really a benevolent person of the eighth world!

In the early morning of the next day, Brother Ji crowed, and after Li Yun got up, he saw Monk Jiushan, not wearing cassock, just a white inner lining, doing some unknown actions in the backyard.

Li Yun knows this set of movements, because he has done it before. It is the "Eighth National Radio Gymnastics for Primary School Students".
"Daoist Yun, you woke up, it's quite early." Monk Jiushan also smiled slightly after seeing Li Yun, but his body didn't stop moving, he was still exercising.

"Getting up early and exercising is good for your body." Li Yun smiled. After morning exercise, it's time to read Taoist scriptures in the morning.

"That's right. This set of moves was taught to me by an old boxer I helped. He said that it can strengthen my body. I got used to it after practicing. My body is getting better and better, and I have never been sick. Well." Monk Jiushan said happily.

Li Yun complained silently, the lack of illness is probably due to the merits added to the body, okay?
"Okay, I'm going to go down the mountain. This time I want to thank you for your hospitality. I didn't meet many good people who could take me in." Monk Jiushan said with emotion. There were many kind people who gave him food before, but they were willing There is not much room for him.

However, Monk Jiushan also expressed his understanding. After all, to others, he is just a stranger, and trust is not a cheap thing in most cases.

"It doesn't matter, we can go down the mountain together later." Li Yun said with a smile, the exercise of physical training is best practiced in the process of going up and down the mountain.

Monk Jiushan nodded, and after finishing a set of exercises, he packed up his things unambiguously.

Tin rods, rosaries, parcels.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.

"The Daoist Master Yun's Daoist Temple seems to have spirituality. The little monk was attracted by his heart before, so he climbed the mountain to find it, but he didn't expect to encounter the Taoist Temple of Lingshan Mountain." Monk Jiushan said with emotion.

"Mountain and wild Taoist temples are not worth mentioning." Li Yun said.

There was dew in the early morning, and the sky was still gray and slightly bright at this time, not fully reaching the level of the sun going up the mountain.

The road down the mountain was quite rough at first, but now that the road has been repaired, it is not a big problem to walk in the early morning.

Soon, the two were about to reach the foot of the mountain.

"I hope to see you again in the future." Monk Jiushan said with a smile.

"See you by fate." Li Yun also smiled.

Just when the two were about to part ways, a voice came from the other side of the bushes.

Yes.
cry?

And cries for help!
