Chapter 105 Strategies
When he returned to his residence, the fat man was sitting by the kang dozing off. When he saw Nanfeng coming back, he hurriedly went down to the floor and lifted the pot, "Why did you come back? The food is cold."
"It's not too late to get the third update." Nan Feng said casually.
The fat man was serving the meal. When he saw Nanfeng trying to reach out into the water jar, he quickly stopped him, "There is a basin in the west, which is for washing hands."
Nanfeng moved a few steps westward and scooped water from the broken basin to wash his face.
The fat man brought out the food and handed Nanfeng a towel, "Are you tired?"
"It's still done." Nanfeng took the towel and wiped his face.
The fat man knew that Nanfeng worked so hard for him, so he was very sorry and served him very attentively. After Nanfeng sat down, he immediately handed over the chopsticks, "Why don't I go with you tomorrow."
"What are you doing? You are so big, where are you hiding?" Nan Feng shook his head, "Don't worry about anything, just stay at home. I will tell you what you need."
"I have to do something." The fat man was embarrassed to sit down and enjoy the fruits.
"Go and catch the raccoon cat called Lamb outside." Nanfeng thrust his mouth into the back window.
The fat man tilted his head and looked at the back window, "We don't have mice, why are we catching them?"
"I have my own use." Nan Feng smiled.
The fat man didn't ask much, and went around to catch the cat. Not long after, he shouted from behind, "I've chased it up to the tree, come quickly."
Nanfeng put down his chopsticks, went out and jumped up the tree, grabbed the back of the cat's neck and carried it back.
After returning, Nanfeng locked the cat in the west room and continued to eat.
The cat was a male, and after being locked up, he screamed very badly. The fat man was so annoyed, "What the hell do you want to do?"
Nanfeng did not answer the fat man's question, but said casually, "You are idle and you are idle, and then go out to catch your mother's back."
"If you don't tell me what you want to do, I won't catch it." The fat man was confused and felt uncomfortable.
"In the future, I have to rely on it to distract the attention of the monks in the Buddha Guang Zen Temple, and also rely on it to protect me." Nan Feng said.
Although the fat man didn't know the details, he finally knew what Nanfeng wanted to do, so he went out to find the cat.
This is the spring season for cats and dogs to start, and they can be seen everywhere at night, but the fat man can't catch them, so he can only chase them to a high place, and finally he has to catch them up in the south wind.
One male and one female were kept in the west room. At first they still called, but not long after, they stopped calling, and there was no need to call each other.
The next day at Mao hour, Nanfeng left again and continued to squat at the west mountain of Foguang Temple.
While squatting, Nanfeng did not waste time. Instead, he meditated under the tree to practice Qi. As long as he did not use spiritual energy, his complexion would not dissipate when practicing Qi.
The talent and opportunity of practice are important, but it is also necessary to persist in practicing without encounters. Over time, there will always be improvements. We cannot completely rely on the help of encounters and external forces.
The monks in Foguang Temple follow the rules and basically repeat the yesterday's daily life, which is boring and boring. Of course, it can also be understood as quiet and peaceful.
The monks living in Foguang Zen Temple rarely go out on weekdays and spend most of their time meditating in the room. However, monks are also humans, and they have to go to the toilet if they are humans. Through careful observation, Nanfeng not only remembered the order of the nineteen monks' rotation, but also understood the rules of their use of the toilet.
In addition, we can also understand who lives in which building, who lives with whom, and whom, and who is in which building.
In addition to the detailed observation, Nanfeng saw the most common stone tower every day. The stone tower only has one door, which is a red-lacquered wooden door with a lock on the door. This lock is nothing to him. He could poke it with copper wire when he was eight years old. What he was worried about was the door pivot. The door pivot of this wooden door was all sitting on the stone mount, and it would make a creaking sound when opening the door.
After thinking about it carefully, he thought of a way to lubricate it with oil. When doing it, he should bring lamp oil to fully lubricate the lower part of the door pivot. The upper door pivot is inconvenient to lubricate it. You can try to press the door leaf down when opening the door so that there will be no sound when opening the door.
But this is not enough. The sound of opening the door is very sensitive. Once it is made, it will immediately arouse people's alertness.
After observing, Nanfeng thought of a solution. The monk here went to the vegetarian hall for dinner. He would return after a little more than a quarter of an hour. The two monks who stayed behind would go to vegetarian food, and the time was also a little more than a quarter of an hour. The period from 3:00 to 5:00 is the time when the monks in the Foguang Zen Temple were most relaxed.
These monks are accustomed to meditation at night and to protect the relics, so they are most alert at night. However, they usually take a nap from the time of lunch until noon. People are usually sleepy in the afternoon, because people eat at noon, while monks eat vegetarian food at midnight, and when they are full, they are the blue sky and the sun. They are the most relaxed and sleepy.
The monks in the Foguang Zen Temple usually go to the thatched cottage at this time. The thatched cottage is located in the southeast of the Zen Temple. Since there is only one thatched cottage, nineteen monks will go to the thatched cottage at different times. There are three monks living in the wooden building in the northeast. The door of the wooden building they live in is louder when the door is opened. After they come out, they go to the thatched cottage and walk behind someone else's house. They can open the red-lacquered gate of the stone tower while they open the door, which is relatively safe.
When he returned to his residence to rest, Nanfeng would personally feed the two cats in the west room. The fat man was only responsible for finding food for the cats, but when he was feeding, he did this to cultivate feelings for the cats.
"You are so stingy, you can't buy some fish and come back." Nanfeng pinched the mouse's tail. The food the fat man looked for for the cat was rat. In spring, food was short of food and people couldn't eat enough, so the mouse naturally lost weight.
"They love to eat this." The fat man was rubbing his clothes from outside the door, which were from the south wind.
After feeding for a few days, Nanfeng got along with the female cat, and took it to Xishan and stayed from different locations in Xishan to tease the cat with food, so that the cat could make a scream, so that the monks in the Zen temple would familiarize themselves with the existence of the cat so that a cat would appear abrupt when the action was taken in the future.
For a month, Nanfeng ran to the west every day. He was not in a hurry. The fat man was anxious. "It's been a month, and you haven't figured out the trick yet."
"Now is only 20% sure." Nan Feng stretched out a finger.
"Twenty percent?" the fat man grinned, "I've been busy for a month, only 20 percent."
"If I have Taixuan's cultivation level, I can just go in and grab it for you, but I don't." Nan Feng shook his head and said. Whether a thing is easy or difficult does not depend on the matter itself, but on the ability of the person doing it.
The fat man was very conflicted. He wanted to learn the eight golden bodies, but he didn't want Nanfeng to work so hard. The most important thing was that he couldn't help at all. He wanted Nanfeng to stop, but he was afraid that Nanfeng would scold him for being unwilling. After hesitating, he said some kind words of thanks.
Nanfeng continued to carry the female cat to Xishan. Seeing that it was big, he left the male cat, leaving only one.
The fat man still catches mice every day. Nanfeng took the mice to the west mountain, searched for a natural gap from the bottom of the outer wall, and put the mice in. These little things would run around and make noises, which could create some trouble for the old monks who were as calm as water, and get used to and ignore the slight abnormal movements. They could also make them uneasy at night and become more sleepy the next morning.
He has limited ability and cannot do big things. He can only accumulate one by one to slowly expand his chances of winning.
Over time, the female cat became familiar with the environment of the West Mountain, and the south wind left it there. She brought some food for it every day. The purpose of bringing food to keep it close to the cat, but he didn't bring it much. He had to leave sooner or later, so he could not let the cat rely too much on him.
Through long observation, Nanfeng determined the time to take action, the second hour of Si.
The route is to climb over the wall from the West Mountain, go to the Zen Temple via a trail, start from the thatchin temple, move northwest through the southeast wooden building, and approach the stone tower.
Then open the red lacquer door and take away the relics.
The time is too short and there is not enough time to copy the layers, so he can only take the relics away. With Gao Xuan's cultivation level, it is not difficult to carry a hundred pounds of objects.
The distance from the cottage to the stone tower was to walk at a special pace, and the left foot had to mop the floor. This was because he wanted to imitate the steps of one of the old monks living in the Northwest Wooden Building, so as to confuse the audiovisual of the monks passing by the Wooden Building, making them think that the old monk from the Northwest Wooden Building returned from the thatched building.
