Chapter 22 Chinese New Year(1/2)
The feeling of happiness can always shorten time into fragments.
————————————————
The happy life in Gaoyang County passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day before the Lunar New Year. During this period, Yi Tianxing went to the manor by the river and had a long and unsuccessful debate on the method of entering the world to practice. In addition, the couple attended several gatherings of former high school classmates with openness. In the envious eyes of others, Yi Tian exercised the ability to use wine barrels and drank those jealous boys to a crushing defeat.
Once in the Sanwu Hotel, Hu Yun, who was always staring at Leilei, drank it into a drunk shrimp. That night, Hu Yun squatted at the door of the hotel and counted his own money. His eyes were red and the smell of wine was heavy. He muttered in a confused manner: "If you drink too much urine, you will have a lot of wine."
The New Year's Eve of 1995 happened to be January 30th. After lunch that day, Yi Tianxing and Zou Leilei dragged the fat director and Teacher Zou downstairs and set off a few firecrackers. The crackling sound of the Spring Festival atmosphere suddenly appeared. Slapping off the red paper scrapes off your body and smelling the aroma of bacon coming from the residential building. Yi Tianxing suddenly thought of an important thing and couldn't help but sigh.
Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Director Pan from the provincial capital will take a big man who is unknown to the depth to Guiyuan Temple to light incense. He turned around and said to Leilei, "I have to leave today."
"Ah?" Lei Lei opened her big eyes, full of surprise.
"The master is still alone in Guiyuan Temple. Today, I have to go to be filial." Yi Tianxing suddenly thought of the lonely back of the old monkey in the hut, and filial piety began to spread.
Lei Lei did not show off her sad expression like an ordinary woman, but smiled refreshedly: "Go." After a while, she remembered something and said sadly: "It's already two o'clock in the afternoon, where can I still have a car? Besides, how can I get it?"
"Not afraid." Yi Tianxing said: "Your little Yi can run away."
So Xiao Yi started running again. While working hard and bored, he couldn't help but remember the last time he ran to Wudang Mountain with Qin Zier. However, now his heart has been planted in his body, and his cultivation is getting deeper and deeper, and he no longer looks reckless and savage that day. His body gently swayed through the mountains, and he really felt a little floating.
His physique is evil and his true energy seems to be endless, so he can support this long journey. If it were any cultivator in the human sect, he would have been exhausted and collapsed halfway. In just over two hours, the gray outline of the provincial capital appeared in the distant sky.
After getting off the barren mountain, I stopped a car on the road and entered the city, and then took a taxi to Guiyuan Temple for a high price.
It snowed again in the provincial capital, and the snow on the ground was paved like a layer of pure white felt outside Guiyuan Temple. The red temple walls, yellow eaves, and vertical plaques formed a sharp contrast with the overwhelming snow-whiteness. The light trees that had already fallen leaves outside the temple were shaking in the cold wind, and a few clouds in the sky were slowly floating weakly.
While slapping the snow and walking into the mountain gate, Yi Tianxing smiled at the monk who was greeting him and said, "It's New Year's Eve today, there's no preparation in the temple? It looks so deserted."
"The monks will not prosper the New Year." The monk responded with a smile.
"That brother Ye Xiang is still playing in the meditation room?" Yi Tianxing teased.
The monk Heshi replied: "The master said that the eldest brother has a great blessing a few days ago. This is the time to experience it in peace and experience it. We are not allowed to disturb us."
Master Bin Ku greeted the surprised old monk, then picked up the phone and called Xiao Jinsong. In the past few days, Yuan Ye has returned to Gaoyang County to accompany the old man. He handed over Pengfei's industrial and trade affairs to Xiao Xiao and Zhou Xiaomei first. He asked him to help buy some New Year's goods on the phone and asked him to deliver them earlier. Then he took a breath and turned to Bin Ku and said, "Host, how to prepare for that matter tomorrow?"
Master Binku knew that he was talking about the incense stick of the head, and his eyelids drooped slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking: "Light incense and tribute to Buddha, what he is doing every day, there is no need to prepare anything."
Yi Tianxing thought for a while and said, "That person has a noble status, and it may not be good to be too lazy."
"It's okay." Bin shook his head, "Substantially people all have a problem. If you value him too much, he will not care. If you have a sincere heart, you will be aware of it. This is what it is."
"Gaoming." Yi Tianxing nodded: "No wonder you can be the vice chairman, but you can only spend time in the world."
After leaving the Zen room, he went to the back garden with white snow, entered the back garden arch dyed black by snow water, and walked past the temporary prison house where the big men in the provincial capital were locked, but he heard some very strange sounds coming from it, and it was crisp and like something hard fell to the ground.
Yi Tianxing stopped, listened with his ears. After listening for a while, he suddenly sighed quietly, "I am willing to fall to the ground."
As soon as I pushed the door, I saw a mahjong piece jumping on the bluestone floor. After a while, it stopped. It happened to be a card facing upwards, and it was indeed an eight-tube.
The four people next to the mahjong table were all paying attention to this card. When they heard the sound, they saw the boy's ordinary face, which seemed to be smiling.
The four of them all frightened, their hands shook, and the green and charming bamboo-backed mahjong pieces rolled everywhere on the table.
Yi Tianxing stepped into the threshold and looked at the four famous figures in the provincial capital. After a while, he finally spoke: "Happy! You all live happier than me."
At first he once made a joke, saying that he would catch four people and just gather a table of mahjong in Guiyuan Temple. Who knew that these four prisoners who should have repented in the meditation room today... were really playing mahjong!
...
...
"Don't scare them, I ordered the little novice monk to do this. These four people are so pitiful." A somewhat compassionate voice came from outside the door.
Without looking back, Yi Tianxing also knew who it was, and shook his head with a wry smile: "The retreat is over? Compassion is not like this. Do you have to know how much blood is on the hands of these four characters?"
After being locked up for many days, the four gangsters who had faded out of their mouths suddenly had mahjong today. They thought it was a Spring Festival benefit, but they didn't know that the "Buddhist" in front of them was not aware of it. It turned out that the handsome monk was making his own decision. The four of them thought of the consequences and Yi Tianxing's methods, and they couldn't help looking at each other. The expressions on their faces were fearful, expectant and dodged, which was extremely wonderful.
Ye Xiangseng stood at the door wearing a coarse cloth monk's robe. The faint sunlight in winter shone on him, as if he had a holy halo.
Yi Tianxing turned around and saw him slightly, and was surprised to find that the monk had some inexplicable changes, and a faint Buddha breath enveloped his body.
"You keep playing, just don't drop the eight tubes to the ground again. It's New Year's Eve, and it's unlucky to land on the coffin." Yi Tianxing said this and left the house, closed the door with his back hand, and walked side by side in the back garden with Ye Xiangseng, who was smiling.
"Why do you scare them?"
"It is only useful to deal with evil people." Yi Tianxing raised his eyebrows and asked puzzledly: "What happened to you this time in seclusion? It seems like you got a good deal."
Ye Xiangseng put his hands together and bowed to the west: "I ask Senior Brother Yi to protect you. Ye Xiang saw the treasure statue of Manjushri's Wisdom Bodhisattva in the Wenshu Court Dharma Hall. He felt something, and he pondered for half a month, and had some insights."
"The treasure statue of Manjushri Bodhisattva?" Yi Tianxing looked at him with a slanted eye. He didn't believe that the Bodhisattva's clone would appear in the human world. He thought that this kid would have become an idiot by Elder Qingjingtian's God-Snatching Method that day, right? But Ye Xiang's state at this time was obviously different from usual. His faint Buddha breath covered his whole body, making people unable to see what realm he had reached.
"Come on, tell me what have you realized?" He leaned into the place very close to Ye Xiangseng and asked. Suddenly, he realized that this monk should be quite old, but the one who was inexplicably Li Chen Qingjun.
Today, Ye Xiangseng looked much more calm. Once he joined the slightest smile as snow lotus appeared on his face: "There is so much suffering in the world, and he should be transformed with compassion."
"So you have started to become a good person and started to play mahjong for those evil people in the eyes of the world?" Yi Tianxing said without hesitation: "Manjushri Bodhisattva holds the green lotus in one hand and holds the Vajra Prajna Sutra. This is wisdom, and the other hand is a Vajra Sword, killing all troubles in the world. This is true compassion. Your compassion makes me very troubled and the level is lower."
Ye Xiangseng did not quarrel with him, but instead grinned, and a childish pure intention came to him: "Senior brother is joking."
Yi Tianxing smiled and shook his head. There was nothing he could do with the Qingjun monk who suddenly stopped talking.
"The treasure statue of Manjushri Bodhisattva enters the heart, Ye Xiang, what should you do if you want to pass on the world with great compassion?"
"Follow senior brother, do it." Ye Xiangseng replied as if it were natural.
Yi Tianxing was shocked and waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't have that great aspiration. If you go to practice hard, I will not be with you." After saying this, he ran to the other side of the lake.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xiangseng was determined to leave him and followed him to the other side. He didn't see how hard he used, and his speed was not slow.
"Senior Brother, you are a person with great wisdom. Ye Xiang I only know compassion, but I don't know how to pass on the transformation. The Bodhisattva preached the Dharma and asked the little monk to pass on the world with the senior brother..." Ye Xiang monk nagged behind him, and Yi Tianxing covered his ears in front: "Don't listen, Prajna Paramita! Stop your mouth!"
"Senior brother is very smart, but he only cultivates his own body. Prajna Paramita is to reach the other shore with supreme wisdom. The little monk has no such wisdom..."
"Oh!"
Yi Tianxing ran three times along the lake in the back garden. Unexpectedly, the monk behind him followed easily. He finally couldn't help but listened to the nagging. He stopped and put his hips on his hips: "You monk is so unreasonable, so long-winded, what is your intention?"
This anxiousness even made the singing voice come out.
Ye Xiangseng stood in front of him and smiled sweetly, "Senior brother, let's let those four poor people go. I am merciful, how can I give up the separation of flesh and blood in the world..."
"Stop!" Yi Tianxing opened his eyes wide, "It's true that you've been trying for a long time to make a living for this?"
Ye Xiangseng smiled and said, "This is the first thing."
"What should I do if I don't agree?" Yi Tianxing began to act like a rogue.
"Senior brother has agreed in his heart." Ye Xiangseng reiterated and bowed down and bowed to him.
Yi Tianxing was stunned, and then he remembered that he had already prepared to let go.
After all, it is impossible for the Gu family to occupy the rivers and lakes of the provincial capital, which is a very taboo thing. Moreover, Lei Lei was convinced at that time. This time, he was prepared to release the four black monks when he returned to the provincial capital. He was just clicked out by the monk in front of him easily, but he was not in a good position. He hummed for a long time before saying, "I will give you face, so I won't be an example."
Ye Xiangseng looked compassionate: "The senior brother is the real great master who is compassionate."
"That's all? If you have nothing to do, go and let the person go. People are still waiting to go home to see their son hold their grandson." Yi Tianxing was a little afraid of this guy's behavior.
"There is one more thing." Ye Xiangseng Yishi.
"What's the matter?"
"The Bodhisattva will enlighten him. In the future, Ye Xiang will practice Buddhism and enter the world. I will also ask my senior brother for more advice."
Yi Tianxing savored the meaning of this sentence, and was stunned for a moment, and then murmured for a while: "Are you going to tell me that you want to return to secular life and play in society with me?"
"Why do you need to return to secular life?" Ye Xiangseng opened his innocent big eyes, "But wherever my senior brother goes in the future, I will naturally go wherever I go."
"Do you want me to bring a big monk to open a bookstore?" Yi Tianxing's eyes at this time could burn the entire provincial capital.
"Yes." Ye Xiangseng's face was quiet and his whole body was holy.
"God, the earth...my Manjushri Bodhisattva!" Yi Tianxing jumped up and cursed at the winter sky in the provincial capital: "Look at what you have done this child!"
...
...
The sky was blue after the snow was washed, and occasionally a few white clouds were floating slowly. At some point, it would cover the faint sun. The sunlight oozed out from the gaps of the clouds, just like Buddha's light. The sunlight outlined the white clouds. If someone looked up at this time, he would definitely find it leisurely, like a face that looked down at the world with compassion.
—————————————————
Humans' adaptability is always stronger than they imagined. Within an hour, Yi Tianxing adapted to the fact that he had a more tail. Fortunately, Ye Xiangseng was just smiling and not talking much. He followed the New Year's goods sent by Xiao Jinsong outside the temple gate - a big cardboard box like last time - and he carried the box into Guiyuan Temple alone.
Enter the back garden and walk into the prison room of the four "poor people".
"Let's go."
The four gangsters were stunned for a moment, not knowing how to deal with it. After all, Old Xing would have to stay for one more day. After thinking for a while, he said, "If you have anything, please tell me clearly."
"It's the New Year, let you go back for a reunion dinner." Yi Tianxing was still holding the big cardboard box and stood lazily at the door, as if he didn't take this matter seriously at all.
When Lao Xing heard this, he almost burst into tears. Life in the monk temple is really hard. He eats white water vegetables and it is even more impossible to have a sauna massage. The most important thing is that the four people living in this room don’t know how much hatred they have on weekdays. They are not at all worried about sleeping, for fear of being slaughtered. It is really harder than living in prison. It is not an exaggeration to live like a year. At this moment, you can leave at first, why don’t you feel happy?
"Not that simple." The most sinister among the four people spoke, "What do you want to do?"
Yi Tianxing looked at him with a look: "You are the third one I caught, surnamed Shu? You were drunk that day and were on the bed with the mistress Hu Tian and Hu Di, and didn't bring a bodyguard, so you are not convinced?"
In fact, after hearing the experience of the other three, this person was already heartbroken, but he was still tough: "I know Gu Sanli is so good."
"You don't know how powerful I am." Yi Tianxing snorted coldly, and the heart of Tao in the True Fire Life Wheel swelled slightly. He tried the Shangqing Thunder Method that he had seen from six places, and his mind turned into a momentum and pressed towards the man.
The man named Shu turned pale and opened his mouth to speak, but couldn't say a word. He covered his throat with his hands, making a roar.
