A rain slowed down the pace of the entire village.
The biggest rain front was over last night. Although the rain was drizzling, it was not a disaster. It looked more poetic and picturesque. Over the past month, the village has been very tense, and most of the villagers have
Being addicted to making money,
Either going into the sea or farming. When the heavy rain came, it seemed to be poured into the hearts of the big guy. For a moment, it became quiet. Zhou Qishan came all the way and saw many villagers gathering together.
The guy thought it was simple. This was a rare leisure time, so he cooked tea and played mahjong and cards.
The sound of rain outside the window was very hazy. Even due to the climate, the rain in the entire mountain seemed to become a light fog shrouded on the mountain, like a silk yarn, beautiful.
Zhou Qishan went to Uncle Liang's home.
Work has not started today. Uncle Liang draws drawings at home. He is getting older and lights an incandescent lamp in the house. Uncle Liang wears a pair of reading glasses. When he sees Zhou Qishan coming in, he smiles, "Xiaoshan, you are here."
It just so happened that even if you don't come, I have to go find you. Recently, there are many jobs, and everyone under my command said that I can't be busy. I want to ask you which one is more important. I'll start
Help you get there.”
Zhou Qishan thought for a while, "The main thing is the dock. After the rain stops, the water will be able to make trouble. Get it done earlier and take everyone into the water to go fishing one day earlier. This is a big event in the village, so it's not easy to be careless.
.” Zhou Qishan also started from the perspective of the village.
"That's true, that's OK, I know it. In addition, we still can't do the elementary school project, and there are too many things to do. The workers below told me that I don't think I can eat this project.
"Uncle Liang is a very real person. If he can't do it, he will naturally say that he is different now than in the early years.
Uncle Liang has been working on a project for a lifetime. He went out to run a factory at the age of fourteen. He used to work hard. He took on any project he could eat. No matter whether his body could handle it or not, it was perfect.
The desperate Saburo.
According to Uncle Liang himself, in the earliest days, he worked hard to make money for himself, for his family, and for his parents. After that, the next job gradually became more and more. He worked hard to make his fellow villagers and elders. Uncle Liang felt that
The elderly in the village have kindness to their family, which he thinks is appropriate.
He built the house in the village hard and good-looking. Over the years, the house has neither broken nor any problems. Not only that, it seems dirty, but the villagers themselves do not have it.
Take care of it, but there is no problem with the house.
Now that I am getting older, the houses in the village are already built, so Uncle Liang has been able to see it, so why bother to work hard?
Zhou Qishan asked with a smile, "I just heard from my aunt outside, uncle, have you recently said you want to go to the temple?"
Aunt Liang mentioned this matter to Zhou Qishan just now, saying that it was because Uncle Liang seemed to have a little like converting to Buddhism recently. Old people went to a nearby temple. It is not very strange for this age to go to the temple. Zhou Qishan
Just ask casually.
"Yes, but I'm not considered worshipping Buddha too much. Do you know there is a Miaoyuan Temple nearby?" Uncle Liang also felt energetic when he mentioned this and asked with a smile.
"Oh, isn't that at the mountain pass here?" Zhou Qishan had heard of it. He had passed by before. This place is a temple and the Maitreya Buddha is worshipped. However, it was not very convenient before, so it is relatively deserted here.
It's right.
"The master of Miaoyuan Temple, Zhichen, is a good person. He has taken in many children over the years. You also know that there are several villages nearby that are very backward. If the children cannot be raised, they will be lost. Zen Master Zhichen will be given all of them.
Go back,
Miaoyuan Temple is not big, and the buildings are in disrepair in the past, and the temple has no money. I passed by when I was working on a project. Zen Master Zhichen was willing to make a good relationship for us. I thought about it and renovated it a little, but
I am old and want to give the children some peace of mind, but the place is really too broken, and the progress of repair is not very fast." Uncle Liang was happy when he mentioned this.
Zhou Qishan nodded. In fact, many monks in the temple are purer. After all, for them, they practice Buddhist scriptures, which is different from those in larger temples. Other temples have basically been completely commercialized.
Their monks are all recruited by foreigners. Generally, they don’t have a master’s degree and are not favored by others. They are like the most ordinary public institutions.
But the monks in these temples have been passed down from generation to generation. The master brought his disciples little by little. These disciples are simple-minded, and many of them are just ordinary farmers who eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha's name all their lives, and have the natural enlightenment of Buddha nature.
This thing is not found by intelligence. Many times, smart people have a lot of mind and cannot calm down.
"But the master of Miaoyuan Temple said that the older generation of people are gone. In the past, there was a Jinglong Temple in Jiulong Rock, and there were many Taoist True Lords. However, this place is there, and Master Zhichen didn't know...
...I just heard from his master." Uncle Liang was really talking a little when he mentioned this.
Zhou Qishan suddenly remembered the Taoist temples in the mountains behind the Liangdong Cave. Perhaps these things are closely related to this land.
Uncle Liang has been running around over the years, and now he wants to be stable. As the old people always think about some faith and give themselves psychological comfort. Most people are like this.
Even Zhou Qishan had seen the old village chief worshipping Guanyin at home, which was normal.
Zhou Qishan chatted with Uncle Liang for a long time. It was raining and the time was very casual. Before he knew it, it was noon. Zhou Qishan yawned, and Aunt Liang came in with the same old and young man.
He said, "Xiaoshan, you can stay at home for lunch today."
Zhou Qishan smiled and said, "I'll bother you, aunt. I'm so lonely, I'm too lazy to clean up my food and drink."
"You young people don't like making these things. We all know that, just tell me that Brother An, he doesn't know how to cook, and he will come to eat at home if he has nothing to do." Aunt Liang has a good mentality, Brother An is their family.
His son is not bad. He inherited his father's business and was engaged in engineering. He was very prosperous and could not hide it. Now he is going to do things in the city.
"Your grandpa should be very happy to see your child so sensible. By the way, before your grandpa passed away, he asked me to repair something and kept it with me. I didn't have time to give it to you. When you come, I'll stop by.
