Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 227, Rebuttal

"Uncle is not a bad person!" There was a stubborn expression on the small face, wearing a red dress, even though he lost his legs, his face still gave off a strong feeling.

"Are you Lao Caizhang's daughter?" Zhizhi recognized the little girl in front of him, and after thinking about it carefully, she was the daughter of a vegetable vendor who was responsible for delivering vegetables to Dalin Temple.

Although Dalin Temple does not eat fireworks in the world, it also has its own vegetable land, but it is impossible to grow vegetables completely self-sufficient. After all, in this mountain, there is little land that can be used for farming, and there are staple foods such as rice noodles, some of which are not enough Everything will be purchased from down the mountain.

Zhizhi looked at Xiaoya, and said with a serious expression on his face: "Little girl, you are a fool. A person's appearance cannot determine a person's good or bad. Clothes and clothes are beasts. This is the truth since ancient times. .”

While looking at Xiaoya, Zhizhi was still searching for Xiaoya's father, thinking that he was too ignorant to let your daughter mess up the situation.

Soon, outside the door, wearing a plain gray shirt, the ordinary-looking middle-aged man came out and apologized.

"I'm sorry, wise Zen master, it's my daughter's fault. Xiaoya, how can you disturb the master to open the altar?"

Zhang Hui regrets this now. He wanted to take his daughter to see the world, and quietly listened to the master's lecture at the door when delivering the food. Unexpectedly, his daughter jumped out suddenly and even refuted the master of Dalin Temple. !
Although Zhang Hui doesn't rely on Dalin Temple's food for a living, one can imagine the reputation of Dalin Temple in the surrounding area. If it spreads to provoke Dalin Temple, don't mess around here.

"Benefactor Zhang, you must discipline your daughter well in the future. The son will not teach the father's fault. Sometimes the parents are responsible for the children's remarks. Don't make a mistake that will cause eternal hatred." Zhizhi gave Zhang Hui a deep look. .

Zhang Hui could only lower his head and quickly said yes.
However, at this time the silent Xiaoya spoke out.

"Uncle saved me twice on the road just now, once by helping me so that I didn't fall, and once when Xiaoya was crossing the road." Faced with Zhizhi's condescending eyes, Xiaoya looked at Zhizhi stubbornly and said : "Uncle is definitely not a bad person."

"Xiaoya, you said he saved you?" Zhang Hui couldn't help looking over there and said.

At this time, Xiaoya's mother, that is, the middle-aged woman with a fierce face, but honest and honest, also stood up and said.

"It's true. If it weren't for this Taoist priest's supernatural powers, I'm afraid. I'm afraid we won't be able to see our little daughter. Taoist priest is definitely not a bad person."

Zhang Hui was silent. Although he didn't understand the stereotypes of knowing people and faces, what he knew was that the Taoist priest saved his daughter.
"I'm sorry Zen master." Zhang Hui took a deep breath, and then said: "I take back what I just said. It wasn't my daughter's fault just now. That priest saved my daughter. He is not a bad person."

There was an uproar.

Zhizhi was made to feel a little embarrassed, and the feigned kindness and kindness on his face disappeared, replaced by a ferocious look of anger.

"Lady Zhang, don't be fooled by appearances. Some people seem to be doing it for your own good, but they don't know what's going on behind the scenes. For example, the choy sum you sent me from Dalin Temple looks very good on the outside, but in reality? That would be different."

The words are not very cryptic, and they are talking about Cai Xin from Zhang Hui's family. If the news that Cai Xin is not approved by Dalin Temple is released, I am afraid that her reputation will be bad. If her reputation is bad.
Zhang Hui couldn't imagine.

"That's right. What a crippled girl said is just one-sided words."

"I think Master Zhizhi is right. Knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing one's heart, who knows if this has been bribed."

"This Taoist leader brought a beautiful girl into the temple. How decent is that? Just now Master Zhizhi gave him a step down, but he didn't keep it. Now it's all right."

The thin and broken voice reached Wise Wise's ears, Wise Wise felt a little complacent, but still sighed on his face, and said: "Don't be impatient, everyone, it is true that the poor monk did something wrong just now, and remembered the Buddhist scriptures wrongly. The content of the article is different from one thing to another, at least in this matter, it is not his fault."

"Yes, a wise master is a wise master, if you know your mistakes, correct them."

"Sure enough, Master Wise."

"Master Wise is indeed the most promising to be the next host."

Host
This is the owner of the temple. Hearing the word wise, he is a little excited. The person in charge of the temple controls all the resources of the temple.
Beautiful!

However, the current host, Master Kong Jian, folded his hands and sat cross-legged on the spot quietly. There was no sadness or joy on his face, and there was no fluctuation, but the corners of his mouth were still muttering Buddhist scriptures to himself.

At this time, standing in the middle, Xiaoya, who had been ignored for a while, said in a slightly downcast voice.

"Father, did Xiaoya do something wrong? Why are everyone's eyes full of tears when they look at you?"

People around looked at his family with gloating eyes. Although Xiaoya was used to such eyes, seeing her father being despised because of this made her feel uncomfortable.

"Xiaoya did nothing wrong, people must learn to be grateful, that Taoist priest saved you, you can say it, tell everyone loudly, you can't be ungrateful, and you can't let people wrong a good person, Xiaoya, you are the best" Zhang Hui touched Xiaoya's head, but in his heart he was thinking about what's the big deal, the vegetable seller still cares about this Dalin Temple?

Is it okay to sell it elsewhere?
If you don't stay here, there must be a place to stay!
Is it possible that your one Buddhist temple can influence the whole city not to buy your own food?
Zhang Hui has already decided that as long as there is any trouble in Dalin Temple, he will go to another town to buy vegetables. Anyway, the rent is about to expire, and it is not difficult to find another rent.

After being praised by Zhang Hui, Xiaoya nodded happily.

The middle-aged woman on the side also expressed relief.

It is precisely because of Zhang Hui's personal education that Xiaoya did not give up on herself and was always so optimistic
At this moment, Li Yun, who had been silently eating melons in the corner, stood up. Li Yun ignored his wise eyes and looked directly at Zen Master Kong Jian, expressionless.

"Did you see it? This is desirelessness. Self-abnegation brings about the infinite expansion of other people's desires, and the infinite expansion of desires hurts others."

Zen Master Kongjian looked at Zhizhi, and then at Li Yun, his face still had the expression of neither joy nor sorrow, but now there was a little more indifference on this expression.

It's not indifference to someone, but indifference to everything in front of you
"Amitabha."
