Puren, the abbot of Xiyuan Temple, watched Li Yundong and others leave. After a while, Fa Kong came in, put his hands together in a salute, and asked: "Master, why are you helping him like this? This person was with our Xiyuan Temple before.
There have been conflicts, and there has been a lot of criticism among the disciples in private, and he now has a very bad reputation in the practice community. If we interact with him, will it..."
Puren didn't wait for him to finish speaking, then he raised his eyes and glanced at the middle-aged monk. He said leisurely: "Fakong, when you entered my sect, I named you Fakong. The original intention was to let you realize that the four elements are all empty.
meaning. “
"Young disciples are still young in cultivation, and the world is so complicated and confusing now. They can't understand it. I can understand it, but you have been following me for decades and you still haven't understood this. You shouldn't.
Ah, it shouldn’t be!”
Fakong had a look of shame on his face, and he bowed his head and said, "Please teach me, Master."
Puren stood up and said: "Buddha clouds are all empty. The sky is empty, the earth is empty, the mountains and oceans are empty, even your body and mind are empty, but only the great Buddha Dharma is empty."
Really! I don’t care what other people think of us, but I must consider how our Dharma will be passed down and promoted in the future.”
"This Mr. Li, when I looked at his actions, I saw that he was a man who hated evil and acted with integrity. Then I looked at his words, and I saw that he was a down-to-earth person who did not talk too much. Finally, when I looked at his appearance, I saw the stunning beauty around him.
Surrounded by him, he is still a boy with a yang body, and the woman next to him is also a virgin with a yin body. This shows that he is a very determined practitioner and is not greedy or indulged in beauty."
"A person with great concentration and great ambition will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future. No matter what his natural talents are, based on these two points, I can conclude that he will be a great practitioner in the future, and his achievements will not depend on him.
Under the leaders of various contemporary factions."
Puren said, he walked to the window, opened the wooden window, pointed to the big tree in the garden, and said: "However, it is not enough for a person to have great concentration and ambition. Look at this tree,
Even if it can grow into a towering tree, it may still grow crookedly. This is true of trees, and so is that of people. If a person's heart is not right, then his determination and ambition will become the basis for his future evil deeds.
The sins of such people, once they commit crimes, are a hundred times worse than those of ordinary people."
Puren turned around and continued: "So, I carefully observed his face. I saw him looking straight at me twice. His eyes were clear and bright, and there was no evil or crooked thought in his eyebrows.
He is even more upright and awe-inspiring, so I believe that this person will definitely be a great practitioner in our righteous path in the future."
Puren glanced at Fakong and sighed: "Fakong, you are not the abbot, so you don't understand my difficulties. Although our Xiyuan Temple is well-known in Soochow City, compared with the four famous temples, it is not.
It is far inferior, and Taoism is extremely powerful in Soochow City. The forces of the Zhengyi Sect and the Six sects are spreading here. In the near future, they will hold a lotus picking conference held every four years in the spiritual world here. We in the West
If Yuan Temple does not make some strong foreign aid, it will not only be unable to cope with the erosion of these sects, but it will also be unable to survive the catastrophe in the spiritual world in the future."
Fa Kong looked puzzled and asked, "Master, why don't we ask for help from other Buddhist schools?"
Puren shook his head: "Since ancient times, there has been no first in literature and no second in martial arts. The same is true for our Buddhist sect. Today, Xiyuan Temple has asked other Buddhist sects for help. In the future, when we discuss Dharma and Dharma, they will still have gossip even if you win them.
Want to say."
"Let me tell you something. There was a woman who asked for help from Guanyin. She devoutly chanted the name of the Great Merciful and the Great Compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva in front of the Guanyin statue every day. She chanted it thousands or even tens of thousands of times every day, but her
One day, her son suddenly asked her: You pray to Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva every day, but if Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has something to do, who should she seek help from?"
With that said, Puren looked at Fakong with a smile on his face: "Fakong, if you were Guanyin Bodhisattva, who would you beg for?"
Fakong suddenly understood, clasped his hands together and said, "It is better to seek help from others than from yourself!"
Puren clasped his hands together and said with a smile: "That's good, that's good! That's exactly what it is! Instead of begging other Buddhist peers in a low voice, it's better for us to find some strong support ourselves. This Zhenren Li is now in the stage where he has just emerged from the trap.
I dare to conclude that he will be a hero in the future and will be an earth-shattering figure. If we don’t make friends now, then when will we wait?”
Fa Kong showed admiration on his face: "Master has far-reaching thoughts, Fa Kong is far behind." But after he finished speaking, he remembered something, and he couldn't help showing a strange look on his face, and said: "But, Master, you are not afraid of your
Did your apprentice cause any trouble for you again?"
When Puren heard this, he couldn't help but look a little embarrassed. He stayed for a while and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Amitabha, I have to let Master Li seek his own blessings."
Li Yundong was following a young disciple of Puren to the outside of the temple. He talked to the monk named Faneng and said, "Excuse me, master, where are we going?"
One of Zhou Qin and Su Chan is a stunning beauty in the world, and the other is a gorgeous demon fox. No matter which one of them, they have a great impact on men, especially this kind of young monk with insufficient cultivation.
Faneng kept his eyes straight along the way, not daring to look at Su Chan and Zhou Qin at all. He looked at his nose and his heart, as if he wished he could seal up all his seven orifices. At this time, he saw Li Yundong and Zhou Qin.
He spoke to himself, so he had to return the courtesy quickly: "I don't dare to be a master, just call me Faneng. I don't know where I am going now, but my senior brother is very bohemian and his whereabouts are always elusive. I wonder if it will cost a lot to find him."
Less effort.”
Li Yundong asked in confusion: "I see that all your abbots are using mobile phones. Doesn't he have a mobile phone or any contact information?"
Faneng smiled bitterly and said: "Any valuable thing that my senior brother has on him will be pawned immediately."
Li Yundong was surprised: "Could it be that your senior brother is a gambler?"
Faneng shook his head and said: "No, no, my senior brother is not good at gambling."
Li Yundong looked puzzled: "What's the reason?"
Faneng said with a strange face: "You will know when you go there."
The group got into a taxi. Faneng sat in front of the car and said to the driver: "Master, go to Mudu Hong Kong Street."
Li Yundong was startled when he heard the name of this place. He thought he heard it wrong and quickly asked: "Where are you going?"
Faneng coughed dryly: "Mudu Hong Kong Street."
Li Yundong chuckled and said, "Here, isn't this from the red light district?"
Fa Neng's expression became even weirder: "Exactly!"
Li Yundong was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth: "You, your senior brother is in a place like this?"
Fa Neng looked shy: "Yes!"
Li Yundong's eyes widened, and he suddenly had a bad feeling. Zhou Qin on the side also had a surprised and weird look on his face, and was also speechless. However, Su Chan comforted him: "Yundong, not necessarily everyone there is."
You debauched people, maybe this master is over there, um, over there..."
Later, she couldn't talk anymore.
What is a monk doing in a red light district?
Su Chan said and smiled dryly: "Maybe he is practicing in the world."
When Li Yundong heard this, he nodded quickly as if to comfort himself: "Yeah, it's possible! Experts are naturally a bit unique."
It was morning at this time, and the road was not blocked. About twenty minutes later, the group arrived at Mudu Hong Kong Street.
This time in the morning is the closing time for most of the entertainment venues here. The streets are very deserted, which is in sharp contrast to the bustling entertainment scene that Li Yundong came to last time. Faneng took Li Yundong around here for a while, and he said with a wry smile:
"It's not time yet and I can't find him yet."
Li Yundong asked in confusion: "Then when can we find him?"
Faneng said with a strange expression: "Probably after four or five o'clock in the afternoon."
Li Yundong asked curiously: "Why this time period?"
Zhou Qin on the side couldn't listen anymore. She pulled Li Yundong aside and said with a slightly red cheek: "The entertainment city here opens at four or five in the afternoon."
Li Yundong asked: "Why is this? Why are you opening the door at this time?"
Zhou Qin, a girl, came to explain this kind of thing to a boy. It was really embarrassing. She coughed dryly and said unnaturally: "Because this is the time when most men are off work. To come to a place like this at this time,
Even if they are asked by their wives at home, they can pretend that they are working overtime. During this time period, their family members will not become suspicious. Therefore, many of these men choose this time period... Ahem, you know...
…”
Li Yundong suddenly understood, and he said strangely: "I don't understand, but you understand it very well!"
Zhou Qin's face turned red and he said angrily: "Aren't I explaining this to you? I hate it. I won't tell you next time!"
Li Yundong quickly apologized and smiled: "Don't worry, I just said it casually, don't worry about it."
As he said that, he suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Faneng with a strange look on his face: "Master Faneng, it's you, you know it very well!"
Faneng's face was full of embarrassment and shame. He was originally from Jiangnan and was born fair. Now he turned red and looked like a ripe prawn. He hesitated and said: "I also heard what my senior brother said.
"
Li Yundong took a breath of cold air and couldn't help but sigh: "This senior brother of yours is really a weirdo in the monk world! I just don't know what to call him?"
Fa Neng clasped his hands together and said, "My senior brother's original name is Ding Zonglei, and his dharma name is Wuhua."
Li Yundong asked curiously: "Since your senior brother is a disciple of Master Puren, shouldn't he also be a disciple of Dharma Master?"
Faneng smiled bitterly and said: "Theoretically, this is the case, but my senior brother thought that the name given by the master was not pleasant, so he changed it to Wuhua, taking the meaning of Tang Bohu's poem "Without flowers, without wine, we hoe and make fields."
Li Yundong also smiled bitterly and said: "This is the first time I heard that there is such a maverick monk in the world."
Zhou Qin, who was on the side, saw a hint of sadness in Li Yundong's brows. She was obviously worried that the flower monk was in name only, so she comforted him and said: "You don't have to worry, maybe this master is a first-class person in Ji Dian. After all the wine and meat, the Buddha is here."
Where is your heart sitting?"
After hearing this, Li Yundong was indeed relieved. He nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, what you said makes sense, but I am overly worried."
Faneng said: "It's too early to come now. Why don't we come back in the evening? My senior brother always fails to see the end of the dragon, so we can only find him here in the evening."
Li Yundong said helplessly: "Okay, that's all."
In this way, until four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yundong and others came to the streets of Hong Kong again. At this time, they saw that all the entertainment venues had opened their doors, decorated with lights, and most of the sexy and beautiful women were standing at the door.
, greeting the visitors respectfully, the traffic volume on the street has also increased significantly at this time, and well-dressed men are constantly coming and going.
Li Yundong looked at the many entertainment venues on this street and smiled bitterly: "There are so many stores here, how can I find them?"
Faneng also smiled bitterly and said: "There is no other way. Let's search from house to house."
Li Yundong was so depressed. He never dreamed that he would come back to this red light street and have to go door to door looking for someone.
Zhou Qin and Su Chan looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces. The two girls followed Li Yundong with pretty faces, pretending not to look away.
Li Yundong and others searched from house to house until they found about ten shops. Li Yundong was struck by the strong smell of makeup and powder on the young lady here. He couldn't help but ask: "There are at least dozens of shops here."
, when will this be found?”
Faneng said helplessly: "There is no other way, so when my master asked me to come, I didn't want to come."
Li Yundong opened his mouth and was about to speak, but suddenly there was a noise from a store not far away.
He turned around and saw that the store was of extraordinary style, built like a hotel, and above it were several shining golden characters "Crystal Love International Entertainment City"!
Oops, this store looks familiar!
Li Yundong took a closer look and saw a few security guards walking out. The security guard was holding a man, and behind these people was a flirtatious woman. Li Yundong looked again, oh, these are also acquaintances, isn't this Mei Niang?
He was about to speak, but when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw Faneng next to him staring straight at the man who was being held out.
Li Yundong thought: Could this guy be Wu Hua?
Li Yundong took a quick look and saw that this man was taken out by several tall and thick men and thrown to the ground with a thud. He was wearing a gray monk's robe, with a bald head and several ring scars.
Mei Niang stood at the door of the store with her hands on her hips and yelled: "You are a bald donkey who wants to play with women and you still want to get credit. You are so confused that you have turned to a woman's belly for alms. Are you tired of living? If I hadn't seen you hanging around here all the time."
, I will break your middle leg today!"
Mei Niang's voice was high-pitched and crisp, and the monk's clothing was also extremely eye-catching, attracting countless eyes at once.
Li Yundong, Su Chan and Zhou Qin were all stunned. They saw that the monk was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He threw himself on the ground with a disgraced face. He didn't look like a master at all. Li Yundong couldn't help shouting in his heart: Damn, this guy is not.
Wuhua, this thing is not Wuhua!
But at this time, Faneng suddenly shouted in surprise: "Senior Brother!"
This sentence sent Li Yundong into hell, and he suddenly burst into tears: "Go, this guy is really Wuhua! Master is really wet! Wuhua? I think he is greedy for flowers, right!!!"
