Tian Jingling and Yun Miaomiao have been staying in the house.
So I didn't know about the master's illness.
After the two of them looked at each other, they were both a little surprised.
"Mr. Ye, besides Miaomiao, are there other guests on the mountain?"
Tian Jingning couldn't help but ask.
Otherwise, besides the two of them, there are only three monks in this temple.
Where did the second patient come from?
Yun Miaomiao even felt so sweet that she thought Ye Ao was telling a lie just to stay here and take care of herself.
Ye Ao could soon think of the thoughts in the minds of these two little girls, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"What are you thinking about? I can't tell you who the patient is. I said you can ask after Yun Miaomiao recovers. Anyway, I will be staying on the mountain these days."
"You don't have to feel guilty."
No matter what Ye Ao said is true or false.
But both Tian Jingning and Yun Miaomiao felt relieved.
If even Ye Ao left, the two of them would be unfamiliar and weak women.
I'm afraid I'll have a black eye!
After Ye Ao communicated with Yun Miaomiao, he stood up and said lightly.
"By the way, I have already paid for the incense, so the meals for the past few days will be provided by the temple."
"But those are vegetarian dishes, which are not very good for Yun Miaomiao's recovery, so I'll catch some game for you later."
When Ye Ao was treating the master in the cave just now, he heard the sounds of many animals.
There are pheasants, hares and the like, so there must be a lot of game in the mountains.
So Ye Ao was thinking.
After hearing Ye Ao's words, Tian Jingning and Yun Miaomiao's eyes lit up.
I have been a vegetarian for the past two days and my mouth feels tasteless.
Now that Ye Ao is willing to catch some game, they are naturally happy.
"Mr. Ye, let me go with you." Tian Jingning stood up and said enthusiastically.
Ye Ao was speechless for a moment, looked Tian Jingning up and down and asked.
"What can you do if you come with me?"
At first glance, Tian Jingning seems to be the kind of pampered person who can't run or jump. She might even run away wild game because she makes too much noise.
Ye Ao secretly didn't want to take Tian Jingning with him.
However, Tian Jingning was very curious about what it was like to hunt, so she immediately patted her chest and assured Ye Ao.
"Mr. Ye, don't worry, I will never cause trouble. If I am unsure about something, I will just stand there and do nothing."
"Although I can't catch the prey, I can still help you get something."
After hearing Tian Jingning's words and meeting those longing eyes, Ye Ao could only nod helplessly.
"Okay, but you have to listen to me later and don't run around, otherwise I won't be responsible for anything that happens."
After receiving Ye Ao's permission, Tian Jingning almost jumped up with joy. She nodded sharply, patted her chest, and promised that she would never run around.
The temple is still a little far away from the back mountain.
Ye Ao first made a simple long bow by himself, and then slowly led Tian Jingning up the mountain.
Except for the cave, where the meat-and-potatoes monks often go to deliver meals and check on the master, the back of the temple is basically a wilderness in the true sense.
There weren't even any footprints, let alone any human figures.
The animals here are also very bold. When they saw Ye Ao and the two coming, they not only did not run away, but even stood there and looked at them curiously.
I must be thinking in my heart, what kind of animals are these two? They look really strange.
Among these animals, Ye Ao immediately stared at the colorful pheasant.
He immediately raised his hand and made a still gesture to Tian Jingning.
Then he approached quietly.
That pheasant still doesn't know its impending doom.
While pacing in place proudly, flashing his big red crown, he made a cooing sound.
"Cuckoo!"
Ye Ao quickly reached out his hand, grabbed the pheasant's legs, and turned it upside down.
The pheasant made a pitiful cry, and its two big wings began to flap continuously.
Unlike domestic chickens, whose wings have basically degenerated, the wings of pheasants are still large and brightly colored.
It can also flutter twice when fanned.
It's just that in Ye Ao's hands, its pair of big wings have no use.
He was pronounced dead after being grabbed by Ye Ao's legs.
Other small animals were also frightened and fled away.
Ye Ao found a random vine and tied the pheasant's legs.
Just in this short period of time.
Those little animals didn't seem to notice Ye Ao's harmful behavior, so they gathered their courage and surrounded him.
Tian Jingning couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Why are the game in this mountain so stupid?"
Even if you don’t know what kind of animal a human is, as an animal there will always be natural enemies. Don’t these little animals never have natural enemies that they can’t avoid?
Ye Ao smiled softly.
"This is not stupid, their life is too comfortable."
Isn't it? There are no wild beasts in this mountain.
Basically, they have been cleaned up by the fair-weather monks.
After all, if there are wild beasts, not only will the lives of temple guests be endangered, but there is also an attraction called Goddess Peak below.
It would be bad if the beast was allowed to run away.
These little animals have no natural predators, and they are hidden in deep mountains and forests, and there are no humans to catch them.
Naturally, I no longer know what fear is.
Ye Ao looked around and found that this pheasant was the fattest.
Although other small animals seem to be heavy in weight, they are basically covered with hair. Even if they are caught and shaved, they still don't have much meat.
At most, it only satisfies the craving.
So Ye Ao showed great mercy and let other animals go.
Caught the flapping pheasant and returned to the temple.
The wine-meat monk happened to be serving the master and fell asleep. When he saw the pheasant in Ye Ao's hand, the wine-meat monk's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Tell me, why did the donor ask me to make a long bow out of bamboo? It turns out he went hunting."
"Those who see the flesh must have a share."
Ye Ao glanced at the fair-weather monk and was speechless for a moment.
He put the pheasant behind him and taught him a lesson.
"What's wrong with you, a monk? It can be said that you broke the precepts in the past just to bear karma for your master."
"Now that your master has no karma, you don't need to share it anymore. Why do you still think about eating meat?"
Hearing Ye Ao's words, the fair-weather monk scratched his head in embarrassment.
There is a saying that desires are hard to satisfy.
That's the truth.
If a monk who eats meat and drinks has always strictly abided by the precepts and refrained from touching meat and fish, and practiced diligently.
I guess I’m not that obsessed with meat yet.
But after several years, the meat-and-wine monk drank and ate meat. He had long been accustomed to this kind of life, and it was difficult to change.
