Chapter 25
Chapter 25
Ji Fuchen came out of Nanyin Temple, and ran non-stop for a day, took a rest in a ruined temple, and continued on his way after it was daylight.Due to the loss of internal strength, lack of money to hire a groom, and inconvenient legs and feet, he couldn't run very far.
Today, I walked another day, and when I arrived at a forest, I heard a loud voice from behind: "Ji Fuchen, stop!"
Ji Fuchen turned his head and saw a group of monks chasing aggressively, and the leader was senior brother Yin Yuan.After a brief shock, he quickly calmed down, his thoughts changed sharply, and he stood still with his back against a big tree.I didn't expect them to catch up so quickly. We are outnumbered, and we can't run away unless Yin Yuan lets me go!But this elder brother is notoriously a stickler in the monastery, and he doesn't usually get close to me. If he wants to let me go, it's as difficult as going to heaven.
"Let me ask you, did you kill Brother Jiezhen?" Yin Yuan raised his thick eyebrows and asked forcefully.
Ji Fuchen remained silent, looking at him coldly.
Yin Yuan was even more angry, "It seems that you have acquiesced. Since ancient times, killing people pays their lives, and debts are repaid. Monks are merciful, but it does not mean that they can let the murderer go. Brother Jiezhen must not die for no reason! You are just a lay disciple, and I have to take you back to the Discipline Hall to confess your guilt. As a senior brother, I have the responsibility and obligation to seek justice for the dead junior brother!"
"Dare to ask senior brother Yin Yuan, did you follow the orders of the abbot master?" Ji Fuchen said without changing his face.
Yin Yuan's expression flickered, and then he said firmly: "You don't care who called me here, you murdered and violated the great precepts of Buddhism first, if I don't take you back to the Discipline Hall, how can I be worthy of the brother Jiezhen who died in vain? How can I be worthy of Nan The name of the senior brother of the Yin Temple?"
Ji Fuchen frowned, looked around indiscriminately, after a while, made a decision in his heart, and sneered, "Since that's the case, why should Senior Brother Yin Yuan mobilize the crowd? I'll go back with you." He was still concerned about Nanyin Temple He didn't want to make a big deal out of his reputation. Now it seems that in order to protect himself, he has to selectively announce some truths.
Yin Yuan glared at him fiercely, "For you know the current affairs!" After saying that, he tied him up and turned back to Nanyin Temple with the lead.
Within a few miles, there were two familiar figures sitting on the tea stand at the branch road.
Ji Fuchen never expected that Abbot Huijue and Yin Shan would wait for him at the intersection he must pass.
"Amitabha!" Abbot Huijue stood up, put his hands together and recited the Buddha's name, and walked from far to near, followed by Yinshan.
Yin Yuan was slightly stunned, and instinctively took two steps back, but gritted his teeth and stepped forward, pushed Ji Fuchen in front of the abbot, and saluted reverently: "Disciple Yin Yuan has met the abbot and master."
Abbot Huijue shook his head, and said sternly, "Yin Yuan, why did you come here to embarrass Master Ji regardless of your master's order?"
"It's not that the disciple deliberately disobeyed the abbot and the master, it's that the disciple can't shield the sinner who broke the precept." Yin Yuan bowed his head and didn't dare to lift his head.
"I won't say much about you as a teacher, you go back to the temple and accept the punishment yourself!" As Chao Ji Fuchen came towards him, his two fingers caught his pulse unexpectedly, and when it turned out that his inner strength was exhausted, he withdrew his hand and let out a long sigh Said: "Amitabha, everything has its own karma and retribution, and what you sow will reap the results. The thing of precepts is an unhappy cycle, and you should eat the evil results yourself. Untie the rope of Ji Ji."
"Master..." Yin Yuan stepped forward and said eagerly.
"You don't need to say any more!" Abbot Huijue frowned and interrupted him, then turned sideways and said, "Master Ji, although you were once a disciple of Buddhist laymen, from the moment you broke the precept of killing and left privately, you have been with me at Nanyin Temple. Nothing to do with it anymore! You go on your own, and you can do it yourself in the future."
"Thank you, Master Abbot." Ji Fuchen nodded.
Yin Shan looked at him reluctantly, took a step forward to untie his rope, and passed the burden on his hand to him, his black and white eyes were shining brightly, "This is something I prepared for you, it's not worth it A few dollars, but you can use them. No matter where you are, remember to write to me." As he spoke, his throat moved, his eyes were rippling, and he looked at him intently, as if he wanted to make every move on his face Every detail is engraved powerfully.
Ji Fuchen nodded, clenched the heavy burden he had handed over to him, and said a little sourly, "Take care, don't be too honest, don't let people bully you all the time!" Wanting to tell him something, he glanced at the few girls behind Yin Yuan from the corner of his eye. The unwilling monk swallowed the words again.
Thousands of waves surged in Yinshan's heart, his eyes lingered on his face for a long time, and finally he gave a wry smile, he took a last look at him, concealed all his emotions, recited the Meditation Sutra, and retreated behind Abbot Huijue.
Abbot Huijue glanced at Ji Fuchen, followed his gaze to look at the ugly disciple he expected the most, shook his head, stroked his long beard knowingly, turned around and stood for a moment, waited for Yin Shan to follow, and then moved away Step back to the temple.
Ji Fuchen squeezed his cane tightly to watch them leave, and suddenly bowed to Abbot Huijue three times.
Abbot Huijue seemed to have sensed something, tilted his head, turned slightly sideways, avoided his worship, chanted a Buddha's name, and walked away.
Ji Fuchen couldn't calm down, since Master Huiming who brought him back to Nanyin Temple passed away three years ago, he has transferred all his admiration for Master Huiming to Abbot Huijue.
At Nanyin Temple, he originally thought that he would come to Nanyin Temple without any emotion, but at this moment, when he witnessed a teacher and a friend disappear in the forest, his heart couldn't stop. Waves rise and fall.Nanyin Temple is a good place, maybe he will come back here after finishing those things.Who can tell what will happen in the future?
He straddled the burden on his shoulders, glanced at a luxury carriage that had been parked for a long time, and strode away.
Ji Fuchen hadn't gone far when a person jumped out of the carriage.The man was dressed in blue, stared at his shrinking back with a smile, moved his figure, and said to the boy in gray next to him, "What an interesting scene! Hide, I want to tell you some good news."
The boy who was called to hide covered his face and said, "Master, you want to tell me that you have taken a fancy to him again?"
The man in blue blinked and sighed, "Hide, you've become a roundworm in my stomach."
Hiding and turning a deaf ear, he said earnestly: "Master, although he is a man, he is just right for you, but you can't just fall in love with him just because you are a man."
The man in blue looked at Hidden with a half-smile, and looked at him from the beginning to the end, "Oh? Are you trying to tell me that you are not a man?"
Hiding for a moment, he immediately realized the meaning of his young master, hurriedly bowed to the sky, and said with a happy face: "Thank God, I would rather be a woman than being favored by the young master."
The man in blue looked at him with a smile, "Is that true?"
Hiding and shrinking his neck, he took two steps back, knowing that he could not get entangled with this topic, and then brought the topic back to the man in blue, "My lord, when did your taste become so unique? Didn't your lord see him?" With a cane in your hand?"
"I'm not blind!" the man in blue complained, "He's good-looking."
"Yesterday, that Xiangling was prettier than him. The young master said yesterday that he fell in love with Xiangling. I think that person is also very pitiful. The young master should accumulate virtue and stop harming others!" Alas, I don't know this flirtatious person. Who will my master look at tomorrow?According to this trend, I hope I don't fall in love with a psychopath!
"But Xiangling is a young lady," the man in blue clasped his chest, seemingly in pain, "If I take a young lady back, the old man will jump out of the coffin and take me down!"
"It's good that the young master knows, so the young master should marry a decent family and give birth to a big fat boy earlier, so as to save the wife from worrying about this and that every day when she is old, so she can live a peaceful life."
The man in blue squinted at him suddenly, leaned on the carriage with his chest folded, and said slowly: "Seeing how loyal you are to your wife, how about I send you to serve her?"
Hidden withered, salivating, he pretended to be a child, "Your Excellency doesn't care about the faults of villains, and the younger one will definitely obey your orders. Even if you run to chase the cripple now, the younger one will never complain to the wife!"
"I didn't force you."
"No, no," Hidden quickly waved his hands, wanting to say something, but his smile froze on his face, looking at the man in blue walking away, "Where are you going, young master?"
The man in blue didn't turn his head back, "Go and find a decent person for you!" That person should be a decent person, right?
Hidden stomped his feet anxiously, and shouted to the master: "I still have to go to the Yuelao Temple to seek marriage, if my wife knows that the son has not gone..."
"If you go, I will go. You first ask yourself a wishful lady, and by the way, help me beg Yuelao, let him take the lead, and lead a red line for me and that young man just now..." Lan Yi The figure was extremely fast, and the sound became farther and farther away, and finally disappeared, leaving only a few echoes in midair.
Looking at the smaller and smaller figure, he hid himself and looked up to the sky and sighed, full of resentment that had nowhere to burst out, his neck and ears were red from holding back.
Ji Fuchen felt that something was wrong, turned around a few times, but it was normal, and found nothing, guessing that he might be overwhelmed, so he forcibly concealed the uneasiness in his heart, and walked into an inn at a faster pace.
Probably because he was used to being on guard, Ji Fuchen chose a seat with his back against the wall, and only ordered one vegetarian dish and two steamed buns.There are ten taels of silver in the bag that Ah Chou gave him. When he goes out, he talks and talks about silver. If he doesn't save some money, he will drink the northwest wind soon.
Just after two mouthfuls of food, a strange man in blue suddenly looked around.
The man in blue glanced at him nonchalantly, with a weird smile in his eyes, walked over several empty tables, and sat down directly beside Ji Fuchen.
The author has something to say: Xiaogong is finally here, everyone has been waiting for a long time\(^o^)/
