Northeast Night Talk

Chapter 236
The fat monk led us into a hut. The environment of the hut was appalling. The mess was not enough to describe everything. There was a sign on the wall that said 'Iron Mouth Straight Break'. I doubted the identity of this monk. Could it be Are there still fake monks on Mount Wutai?

"Come, come! Two little benefactors, don't be in a hurry to find someone. I know the master Wuhan you mentioned. After I do the calculations for you two, it won't be too late to take you to find that master." !"

Count two hexagrams?His uncle, the monk can also tell fortunes?Why haven't we heard of it?You are not kidding!
Although we doubted the identity of this monk, he said that he knew Master Wukong. We would rather believe it than believe it.Besides, this monk who was able to open an altar to tell fortunes on Wutai Mountain must not be an ordinary person, maybe he really knew Master Wukong.

"Master! What are you going to do to us?"

He Yinyang and I looked at each other, feeling a little dizzy, fortune telling for our two Mr. Yinyang, aren’t you a classmate? Although I am not proficient in divination, I still have some ability to predict danger, which is very useful What about him?

The fat monk naturally didn't know what we were thinking, so he pursed his lips and said, "I see that you two don't raise your brows, and your complexions are flushed but not round, this is a sign of good luck and evil, if it is what I expected If it's not bad, although you two will have some opportunities during this trip, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe in the near future, life and death are unpredictable!"

The fat monk is spitting stars and flying around, quite capable of fooling around, without raising his eyebrows?It's no wonder we can raise our eyebrows when we see you, a fake monk!Ruddy?That was because I slept cold last night, and I still have a little fever now!
However, what the fat monk said later was a bit interesting. He said that we will have some opportunities during this trip, but we will soon face catastrophe.This is true. It would be a good thing if we could get the help and guidance of an expert during this trip, but the emperor will perish in the near future, and we will definitely come forward to stop it. Facing the emperor, life and death are indeed unpredictable.

"Brother Dong, his calculations are quite accurate!" He Yinyang whispered.

The fat monk's ears moved, obviously hearing He Yinyang's words, and the smile on his face was even fuller.

I glared at He Yinyang fiercely, and quickly said: "Then I would like to ask Master, if there is a way to resolve it!"

"Yes! Of course there is!" The fat monk was overjoyed, his fat body couldn't help shaking, he took out a face-sized talisman from the drawer, and spread it in front of our eyes, "This talisman is called 'Daluo Tiangang Meikai The second-degree ten thousand dharma is empty Lingyun Curse'! It has the effect of seeking good luck and avoiding evil, and bringing good fortune in disaster! If you have this talisman in your body, the catastrophe of the two of you can be resolved!"

He Yinyang and I stared blankly at this Lingyun Mantra named Da Luo, and the corners of our mouths twitched for a moment.

His uncle's name sounds awesome, but neither of us sensed the slightest bit of mana. This is clearly a piece of waste paper.

He Yinyang was about to have a seizure, I quickly winked at him, and said with twitching corners of my mouth, "Master! Your talisman is amazing! The two of us are really excited to meet the talisman bestowed by the master!"

The fat monk couldn't close his mouth with joy when he heard me say this, "It's nothing! I only give this talisman to those who are destined, and the two of you are destined to me. It's just... It took me seven to seven days to make this talisman. Now that my vitality is seriously injured, I urgently need the nourishment of panacea, but the little monk is poor! I don’t have money to buy medicine, I don’t know if the benefactor can..."

As he spoke, he twirled his fingers shamelessly towards us.

His uncle!It's clearly a piece of waste paper and it's said that it took seven to seven days of skill. Look at your fat head and big ears, you can't see that you are seriously injured. So you are asking us for money!

I suppressed my anger and took out 200 yuan and handed it to the fat monk, who took it happily.

"Master Oh! Can we go see Master Wukong now?" I said depressedly.

"Don't worry! Let's go to eat first. I'll take you to the back mountain after the vegetarian meal. Master Wukong is in the back mountain!"

To be honest, after climbing the mountain for such a long time, the food we ate in the morning was not enough for our small intestines to wriggle, so we simply went to eat with the fat monk.

It was the first time we ate vegetarian food in the temple, and it felt quite novel. It turns out that monks always eat standing up, and they have to chant mantras before eating. Only the fat monk is unique, sitting on the stone pier with his legs stretched The rice bowl was full of food, and the monks around looked at him with disdain, but no one went up to take care of him.

A steamed bun, a bowl of soup, a tael of pickles, and a basket. This basket contains cooked edamame, which is shared food. Everyone grabs edamame from the box and eats as much as they can, and never wastes it.

Not to mention, this vegetarian meal looks rough, but it tastes quite delicious, with simple dishes and light rice, it has a special taste.

The bell sounded from nowhere, and all the monks packed up quickly, and walked away from the cafeteria in a short while, leaving us with a few pilgrims and lay monks, and the nondescript fat monk.

Hearing from these laity monks, there is a saying in the monks' clear rules and precepts that they will not eat after noon. Seeing that it was twelve o'clock, they had to leave the cafeteria. All are militarized.

Waiting for the fat monk to finish his meal, this guy took us to the back of the mountain with his stomach full. The passing monks avoided him like a god of plague. The more we looked at this guy, the less he looked like a monk. , I don’t know why there is such a freak in Wutai Mountain. I thought that Monk Gohan would be like this fellow, and he would be kicked down the mountain in the end.

"Here! Here it is! The master you are looking for is inside, but I can't take you in. If you want to go, you can go by yourself!"

The fat monk pointed to a temple.

The temple is located in a secluded place in the mountains and forests, there is no incense, and obviously does not accept outsiders, He Yinyang and I can't help but believe it.

Hastily said goodbye to the fat man, and rushed over without stopping.

"Amitabha! This is a forbidden area at the back of Mount Wutai. Miscellaneous people are not allowed to interfere with the practice of eminent monks. Please leave quickly, two benefactors!" Two middle-aged monks blocked us from the courtyard.

"Two masters! We are here to find someone!" He Yinyang and I said hastily.

Two middle-aged monks looked at us suspiciously and said, "Which Zen master are you looking for?"

"We're going to visit Master Wukong!"

The faces of the two middle-aged monks couldn't help changing, and they shouted sharply: "We don't have Master Wukong here, please leave quickly!"

The sudden change of color of the two monks made He Yinyang and I startled for a moment, and then showed a gleam of joy. Their expressions just showed that there was this person in the yard!Otherwise, why act like this?
But the strange thing is, why is the name of Master Wukong always being scolded when the name of Master Wukong is mentioned on Mount Wutai? What is the reason for this!

He Yinyang and I had no choice but to take out the Jade Buddha that Gohan had given us, and showed it to the two masters.

After the two masters saw it, their faces softened a little, and they hesitated for a moment and said: "Wait a moment!" He took the Jade Buddha into the courtyard.

After a while, the monk came out and handed the Jade Buddha back to us, "Two benefactors, Zen master is teaching the Dharma, and we don't have time to meet with you, so please stay in the temple until the Zen master summons you!"

The Zen master he was talking about must be Master Wukong. When we heard that he was in this yard, we couldn't help but smile on our faces, but we didn't expect to see him immediately.But thinking about it, he is a Zen master after all, and he is very busy. If there is no Jade Buddha to prove his identity, he might not be able to meet us.

Two monks led us to the adjacent courtyard and opened up a side room for us to live in. He Yinyang and I had no choice but to wait here to be summoned.

But I didn't expect that the wait would last for three days. We almost visited Wutai Mountain all over, and the Zen master hadn't summoned us yet.

"Brother Dong, Master Wukong must have forgotten us!" He Yinyang said depressedly.

Just when the two of us were about to ask what happened, the middle-aged monk who arranged for us that day suddenly came to the door.

"Two benefactors! The Zen master asked me to tell you that I will meet you in the other courtyard at midnight tomorrow!"

Third watch?

He Yinyang and I were first happy and then surprised. We were happy that Master Wukong was finally going to meet us, and we were surprised that he actually met us in the middle of the night. What kind of routine is this?
We didn't dare to question it, it was for our face that they could meet us, and we both nodded in agreement.

After the middle-aged monk left, we were both at a loss. I don’t know what the meaning of Master Wukong is. Is it because he was so busy that he couldn’t get away, so he met us in the middle of the night?Not so!
If you don't understand it, don't think about it. Anyway, we will see him tomorrow. We really want to see what kind of character this legendary Master Wukong is.

...

We didn't sleep all night, and He Yinyang and I persisted until the third watch, and then we couldn't wait to go out and walked towards the other courtyard.

As soon as he entered the other courtyard, he saw a huge incense burner, and there was still incense burning in the incense burner. Judging from the length of the incense, it was obvious that it had not been lit for a long time.

Just in front of the incense burner, we saw a monk in cassock. This monk sat on a futon with his back facing us. His back was as straight as a pine. Although he didn’t have a sharp aura on his body, it made people feel frightened. Feeling, my intuition tells me that this person is not simple.

Could this be Master Wukong?

Standing not far away, He Yinyang and I cupped our hands towards the monk and said, "My junior pays homage to Master Wukong!"

After the cry, 'Master Wukong' didn't respond, and we both shouted again quickly.

Still no response.

"Brother Dong, Master Wukong can't be deaf~!" He Yinyang whispered.

"Don't talk nonsense!" I gave him a hard look.

Since he is an expert, how can he not have a weird temper?The weirder he is, the better he is.

I pulled He Yinyang and let the monk pass quietly, only then did I see the monk's appearance clearly.

At first glance, this monk's face is thin and thin, neither happy nor sad, with deep lines and vertical and horizontal lines. The most noticeable thing is his slender and thick beard, which hangs down from his lips and nose in a black and white posture, covering the whole body. The human temperament is quite solemn.

This master and student is quite old-fashioned, with an apparent age of around fifty, but the actual age of ordinary cultivators is often much different from the apparent age. From the hidden atmosphere, I am sure that this old monk must have a certain age , still an old monk!
At this moment, his eyes are tightly closed, his lips are moving slightly, and he doesn't know whether he is chanting sutras or mantras, but thanks to his eyes being closed, otherwise we would really be ashamed to look at him so carefully.

There is a washbasin in front of him, and there is a slender chicken feather in the washbasin. We don't know what tricks this old monk is doing, or what kind of kung fu he is practicing?

After watching it for a long time, I couldn't figure it out, but the incense in the furnace was still burning slowly. The old monk didn't respond at all except for the slight movement of his lips. He Yinyang and I were bored waiting, so we simply followed his example. Sitting on the futon, he stared blankly at the incense burner in a daze.

The incense burnt out gradually, and when it was about to burn out, it was almost the fourth watch, and there was an inexplicable warmth in the air, I don't know if it was because the vagina was closed, or because the sun was about to rise from the east.

The white belly of the sky is still far away, but a white line is exposed on the horizon, the night sky is getting deeper, and the sky is full of stars shining exceptionally.

What a beautiful time, I secretly sighed in my heart, as lazy as our generation, I rarely get up early at this time, I don’t know how many such beautiful scenery I missed.

The incense is about to burn out, and the warmth in the air is getting stronger and stronger, just like the rice water in the warm pot, as if it will boil in the next second.

The incense ash fell, and just as the last spark fell, the old monk who had been motionless for a long time suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were shining brightly, and he looked straight at the basin in front of him.

I only heard an old sigh coming from that skinny body, "Oh... it's spring!"

As soon as the words fell, the chicken feathers in the washbasin stood up suddenly, and shot up into the sky like a sharp sword, leaping to a height of several feet!This miraculous scene can't help but make us grow our mouths!
