Mu Fusheng's ethereal and Zen-like voice sounded again, and the familiar scriptures read from his mouth gave people an indescribable sense of cleansing the soul.
Everyone was unknowingly brought into the Buddhist world by Mu Fusheng, except of course... except Utanhua.
Youtanhua had only sat down for less than a quarter of an hour, but his eyelids were already fighting crazily.
She was extremely depressed and thought to herself: "Is it because I was used to being coaxed to sleep by the young monk chanting sutras before? Why do I feel so sleepy as soon as I hear sutras?"
Youtanhua steeled herself again, shook her head, and thought to herself: She couldn't fall asleep in front of so many people. If word of this spread, how would she be able to establish herself in the world in the future?
But after holding on for a while, her eyelids drooped involuntarily, and her head began to peck at rice bit by bit.
On the stage, Mu Fusheng was still continuing to explain, but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of You Tanhua next to him, and he couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth, feeling a little helpless.
When Udanhua's head finally lowered completely and he was about to fall forward, Mu Fusheng gently grasped it with one hand, and Udanhua followed the force and leaned directly on Mu Fusheng's shoulder.
Mu Fusheng's face remained calm and he continued to speak the scriptures. It seemed that everything that had just happened was just everyone's illusion.
The witch Youtanhua and the Buddhist disciple Mu Fusheng were both sitting on a high platform. One was in red clothes, the other was in a golden robe. One was sleeping soundly, and the other was chanting devoutly. Everyone stared blankly at the scene on the stage, not knowing.
What reaction to do.
Isn’t Master Mu a disciple of Buddhism? Is it true that he and the witch Udanhua are as rumored...
But the scene on the stage is so harmonious, as if everything in the world is worth mentioning in front of them. If it is only defined by the love between a man and a woman, it is simply a stain on them.
The commotion in the audience did not affect Mu Fusheng's chanting at all. As the chants were heard, the believers in the audience gradually returned to calm.
The Water and Land Dharma Assembly ended, and all the believers reluctantly had no choice but to leave. When they stood up, they saw Master Mu on the stage glance at You Tanhua on his shoulder, and then put an index finger on his lips in a meaningful way.
forward.
"Is this a signal for us to be quieter?"
"God, Master Mu really loves the witch so much!"
"Shh, please keep your voice down and leave quickly. Didn't you see Master Mu frowning? You are disturbing the witch's sleep."
After the two were watched for several more rounds, the female believers were finally satisfied and left one by one with red faces.
At this moment, Youtanhua was still sleeping soundly on Mu Fusheng's shoulder. Mu Fusheng chuckled and continued to chant sutras.
It wasn't until the sun set that Udanhua finally woke up from a dream. She opened her eyes and reacted for a few seconds before she realized what a stupid thing she had done!
She jumped up excitedly and said depressedly: "You little monk, did you do this on purpose? With so many believers watching, you just let me sleep like this?"
"Amitabha." Mu Fusheng stood up calmly, with a hint of regret in his tone, "The junior monk also wants to take senior back to sleep, but the Dharma gathering has already begun, and the junior monk cannot leave them alone, right? Senior, please don't be angry.
Already."
Youtanhua said speechlessly: "...Can't you wake me up?!"
"Why? Senior, didn't you sleep well?" Mu Fusheng looked confused and thought to himself, he just heard senior smacking his lips, didn't he sleep soundly?
"...Stop talking and let me be quiet."
And since the end of the water and land ceremony, the portraits of Mu Fusheng and You Tanhua cuddling together that day were embroidered on the handkerchiefs by shy girls, and were secretly given to their lovers.
In addition, many literati compiled many stories for the two of them based on what they heard from hearsay, and for a time it became a best-seller, attracting people all over Nanyang to spread the word.
