Chapter 57 Master Long Gen
“Ah!”
The old monk looked at Lu Feng with his turbid eyes for a long time, and then said slowly: “So it’s the master.
I don’t know what the master’s name is?”
“Yongzhen”
Lu Feng said.
"Yongzhen?"
The old and frail red monk seemed to be very afraid of the cold. His whole body was wrapped in a thick blanket. Like a dehydrated quail, his red coat was only reflected in the moment he opened the blanket to speak. After speaking, he put the blanket back on himself.
Hearing Lu Feng’s Dharma title, he had no intention of introducing himself, but said slowly: “I wonder who the great monk is leading the team this time, Master Yongzhen?”
While speaking, Zhiyuan and Zhi'an were already approaching Lu Feng. They did not use their guardians, so they were lower than Lu Feng for nothing, but they didn't care about it now.
But Lu Feng still saw the two of them and took the initiative to say: "We are led by my teacher, Elder Mingli. These two are the two monks from the Discipline Academy. This is the monk Zhiyuan, and this is the monk Zhi'an." Monk.
The two monks have pure Buddhism and strict discipline. They are in charge of the affairs of this place and command the cavalry."
When the two monks heard this, they smiled at the same time and said, "Don't dare. I don’t dare.”
Monk Zhiyuan pointed at Lu Feng and said, “This Monk Yongzhen is a disciple of Elder Mingli, the leader of our Discipline Academy.
Why are you here? This?
Why don't you get off your horse when you see a Buddhist monk? Is it disrespectful to Buddha? Or have you never had the intention to worship Buddha? "
When Zhiyuan Monk said this, his eyes widened, and the strange charm on his body washed over these people's horses over and over again, frightening these people to the point where they immediately rolled off their horses, lying on the ground and kowtowing repeatedly. Only the monk in red will not accept it Affected, the horse under him should also be a protector.
When the monk in red heard that he was the disciple of Elder Mingli, the first leader of the Discipline Academy, he just clasped his hands and said, "It turns out that he is the disciple of Elder Mingli. Don’t blame the superior monk.
We are members of the Ganing family and Master Ganing.
When Master Ganing was doing divination yesterday, he had a premonition that Buddha’s messengers were coming from the southeast, so he specially asked us people to come day and night to greet Buddha’s people.
I didn't expect that the leader of the Discipline Academy would come in person. ”
But when he asked Elder Mingli, Lu Feng bluntly said that his “original master” left with a large group of people to find the news brought by Fengma. The old monk smashed his bar. Zui asked if they would wait here for Elder Mingli to come back. Lu Feng said no, our master would wait for us at Master Ganing's manor. In this case, the old monk asked them if they could move and leave now, and rush all night while it was still dark. Rush to the next village
“That is the time for the gods in the wilderness to rest, and the Bodhisattva will protect us. "
The monk in red said.
Lu Feng glanced at Zhiyuan and Zhi'an, and both of them said that they should act according to Lu Feng's words.
"Yongzhen, according to your words, both of us are fine."
The two monks said. They were quite convinced by Lu Feng who practices the Six-Word Great Ming Mantra, not to mention that just now, Lu Feng noticed the "Shengfan" attack before everyone else. How could they not believe that Lu Feng was a person blessed by the Bodhisattva?
A person who associates with scholars becomes a scholar, and a person who associates with thieves becomes a thief. As a disciple of Elder Mingli, Yongzhen Monk must be a natural-born Buddhist with the blessing of Bodhisattva. , is a person who was born to be a monk, and now traveling and eating, it is naturally according to what Lu Feng said, in the wilderness, the blessing of the Bodhisattva is more reliable than the wisdom of all monks.
Aware of the attitude of the two monks towards Lu Feng, the old monk narrowed his eyes slightly. He said nothing and did not urge him. He just wrapped his blanket tightly and waited for them to discuss a charter.
Lu Feng said that since this was the case, he would take action this afternoon. He had to cleanse and bathe in the morning, worship and respect the Buddha. The old monk clasped his hands and signaled his knights to enter Wula Station to repair. He had no complaints about Lu Feng's choice.
"Well, you chabas, act according to this.
You are not allowed to disobey the master's will."
Those "chabas" who are kneeling on the ground also do not If they dared to say anything nonsense, they got up dejectedly and held their horses, trying to enter Wula Station. Monk Zhiyuan stopped them and told them to camp outside Wula Station.
The warriors looked at the red master, and the red master continued: "According to the wishes of the masters, they will be stationed outside."
Lu Feng looked at these situations and took them all in his eyes and heart. He didn't care about them or say anything.
Lu Feng politely asked the identity of the monk in red. The monk in red said that he was called "Master Long Gen" and that he was a monk supported by the Ganing family. He chanted sutras and performed divination for the Ganing family every day. , praying, divination.
This is another kind of ecology of monks. They do not choose to enter a large temple like the Endless White Pagoda Temple to start as Buddhist monks. Instead, they choose to become scripture masters for the owners of large manor, and serve as Buddhist monks. The labor of the large estate owner.
It’s just that under normal circumstances, being supported by the owner of a large manor also means that one is tied to the owner of the manor for the rest of his life. Some cruel manor owners will not listen to the words of the monks supported by their family. If it doesn't sound good, cut off his tongue, gouge out his eyes, and cut off his heels. Even so, the family of the large manor owner has no shortage of monks.
If you cannot become a red monk, your life in the temple is no different from working for the owner of the large estate. In fact, if some monks can please the owner of the large estate, they don’t have to do all the hard work. He can live like a human being by telling jokes for the owner of the large manor.
Seeing this man's half-open eyes and sluggish expression, Lu Feng always had the feeling that this Master Long Gen was extremely extraordinary.
This is an indescribable feeling. Lu Feng believes in his feelings. His heart is as clean as his body at this moment, and can reflect many brilliance that he has never discovered. Since he felt that Master Long Gen was not simple, there must be something wrong with the monk from the Ganing family who came to greet them.
However, he did not say anything. He only told the two monks about these things after returning. The two monks looked at each other and did not dare to turn a deaf ear to Lu Feng's words, but they did not It was impossible to see how Monk Long Gen acted - there was no charisma about him, and he was never seen taking action. He just twisted a long string of rosary beads between his hands.
After returning, Lu Feng also began to check the casualties this time, and found that several acolytes were dead. They were shot to death by Sheng Fan's random arrows and could not be saved.
When he saw Lu Feng and others walking in, Master Long Gen also held the beads in his hand, silently recited mantras, and silently prayed for the monks who had just died here. He lay on his back On the ground, I listened to the sounds on the ground with my ears, then raised my head and saw the condor leaving here.
Inside the yard.
The corpses of the dead attendant monks were piled together, waiting for Lu Feng to chant before being cremated. As for the other two monks in red, they also had their own tasks. Arrows and weapons use the blood on them to curse those who died in their hands or who did not die in their hands.
Curse the demon to take away their lives and kill their souls. This is a ritual that monks from both sides must perform after every battle.
No exceptions.
