Chapter 225 Monk in the Temple
My voice quickly attracted their attention.
They all looked towards the ancient temple.
But when the two of them took a closer look, the figures there had long since disappeared.
Wang Ergou stared there for a while, maybe he didn't see anyone, so he said to me: "Master Zhuo, are you too nervous?"
This journey has been tiring and stressful.
At this time, the figure had indeed disappeared.
Could it be that I really saw it wrong?
I couldn't help but start muttering in my heart, feeling that something was wrong...
I took a deep breath and couldn't help but look a little more solemn.
"Brother Dog, maybe."
I said calmly.
The sixth person from the Credit Dao Sect also glanced over there, but said nothing.
We started walking towards the ancient temple, which was located on a slope.
The slope seems to be quite steep, but luckily steps have been built here.
What makes me feel strange is that there are not many weeds growing on the steps here. On the contrary, the weeds here seem to have been taken care of by someone.
After going up the steps, I was not the only one to notice this phenomenon. Wang Ergou also apparently noticed it, and he made a muttering voice, "Master Zhuo, maybe there really is someone here."
I hummed.
"But this kind of ghost place has no roads in all directions. If there are still people living in this kind of ghost place, we must be careful."
Both Wang and Gou became wary.
He subconsciously took out a knife in his hand as a precaution.
The sixth son of the Sheng Dao Sect, however, remained relatively calm from beginning to end, and his emotions never fluctuated much.
Entering the ancient temple, the ancient temple was also kept relatively clean. This shows that I must have read correctly just now. There are really people here?
Our eyes searched everywhere.
But no figure was seen.
Wang Ergou immediately shouted at the top of his voice: "Is there anyone there? Is there anyone there? We are just pilgrims passing by. We don't mean any harm."
When I heard Wang Ergou say this, I couldn't help but feel speechless.
A passing pilgrim?
Who would believe this if I say it?
This kind of barren mountains and ridges have no access roads in all directions. To be honest, I find it very amazing how this ancient temple was built.
Will anyone come here to offer incense?
In a place like this, it's okay if there are murderers.
After all, if a murderer escapes to a place like this, he will be safe no matter what.
Wang Ergou shouted a few times, but when no one responded, he was very tired by now, so he took off his bag and sat down on the futon.
I was also a little tired, so I took off the bag on my back and leaned against the door to rest.
Wang Ergou subconsciously took out a cigarette and prepared to light it.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, "Amitabha, donor, this important place of Buddhism, please don't smoke."
A long voice sounded.
We quickly took a closer look, and sure enough we saw a monk coming out. The monk must be in his early forties, wearing a monk's robe, with a somewhat strong build, and his face didn't look like a kind person.
When Wang Ergou heard this voice, he said with a smile: "Master Xiao Zhuo, is this the master you just saw?"
I looked at the monk and briefly thought about it. It seemed that the person I discovered before was not this master.
I paused for a while and asked: "Master, are you the only one in this temple?"
"Oh, not only the donor, but also Pindao's two junior brothers."
As soon as I heard this, I suddenly realized that Wang Ergou was also sensible and did not continue to light up the cigarette.
Instead, he got up immediately and said: "Master, the three of us believe in Buddhism and come here to worship Buddha sincerely. We also heard from outside that there is an ancient temple here with special miraculous effects, and we came here specifically to pray for Buddha.
"
Wang Ergou said these words without blinking an eye now, in one go and without any sloppiness.
After hearing this, the monk said: "Since several donors sincerely worship the Buddha, it is also a blessing for our Buddhist community. Please invite these donors to offer incense."
Wang Ergou got up in a hurry, patted the dust on his buttocks, called me and said: "Master Zhuo, hurry up."
I hummed and walked to Wang Ergou.
The sixth person from the Credit Dao Sect also moved over.
Previously, Mr. Daoliu of Daomen said that this temple might be the entrance to the tomb passage.
There are still a few closed in this temple, and I wonder if these monks may be traveling together.
For example, Xu Pingchun discovered a tomb. In order to hide it from others, Xu Pingchun simply bought the tea garden and started digging for treasures in the name of construction.
And there are several monks living in this temple. Could it be the same?
Thinking of this, I felt a little confused.
It is surrounded by mountains and miasma is everywhere. It would be difficult to maintain a basic life in this place.
When I came in just now, I seemed to see a vegetable field next to the temple.
It seems that you need to grow your own vegetables...
Wang Ergou picked up the incense and lit it, and then said to the Bodhisattva in the temple: "Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva, I am your disciple Wang Ergou. I have been upright and upright in my life, and I look very handsome. I don't have much pursuit in this life.
Seek to be the richest in the world, surrounded by beautiful women, with three or five luxury cars and mansions, and a family full of descendants..."
I:"……"
Is this a pursuit that is not big in a lifetime?
Wang Ergou chattered endlessly, and he did not forget to add: "Of course my good brother, Mr. Xiao Zhuo will live a long life, be in good health, be as blessed as the East Sea, and live as long as Nanshan..."
"The sixth brother next to me will never have any illness or disaster in his life, and he and his wife will always be united..."
"Brother Dog, that's about it. You said so much at once, even a Bodhisattva can't remember it."
I couldn't help but remind Wang Ergou.
After Wang Ergou heard what I said, he said: "Master Zhuo, your warning is reasonable, but we will definitely not be able to leave tonight. We have to stay here for a few days. It won't be too late to talk about this later tomorrow."
Wang Ergou's mentality is quite good.
After finishing the incense, Wang Ergou took out a thousand yuan from his body and said: "Master, this is our incense money. You can arrange some rooms for us tonight and we will stay there."
The monk looked at Wang Ergou, then at us, and said, "Several donors have come from afar, but the conditions of the temple are simple. There are not three rooms. Is it okay to only have one?"
After Wang Ergou heard this, he said: "Just one room. We who sincerely seek Buddha don't have so many requirements. Master, I will ask you to get us some food later."
"Don't worry, the monks and junior fellow apprentices will prepare vegetarian food."
The monk took the money and said slowly.
