A scholar becomes a landlord

"Thank you, master host, and thank you layman. ="

The father and son saluted the host and Wei Le. It seemed that they had found out Wei Le's identity, and he was not a monk.

"It really works?"

Wei Le walked around the young master a few times, and even patted him on the shoulder.

"Layman~~"

The young master's face was so red that he could bleed.

"The layman was joking, and it really works. After eating the white lotus that day, Quanzi's body became better at a speed visible to the naked eye. It is no longer the physique of panting after walking a few steps, and fainting after walking a few more steps."

The middle-aged man thought that Wei Le was joking, so he didn't take it seriously.

Little did they know, Wei Le was really skeptical!After the father and son gave the gift of thanks to the Golden Buddha Temple and Wei Le, they didn't dare to disturb the presiding officer and the layman's Qingxiu and left.

After sending them off, Wei Le turned around and looked at the host.

"Is there something you didn't tell me, Grandpa?"

Since Wei Le admitted the identity of the other party's grandfather last time, he can occasionally call the host grandpa.

"Yes." The host readily admitted.

Wei Le moved a tuanpu to sit beside the host, intending to listen carefully to what he had to say about the white lotus.

"It all started with the first generation of the abbot of the Golden Buddha Temple..."

The ability to host and tell stories is not bad, Wei Le quickly understood.

It turned out that the first director of the Golden Buddha Temple was a powerful man, not only profound in Buddhism, but also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and medical skills.Among them, apart from Buddhism, the best is medicine.Moreover, the host was from a family. He raised a pond of white lotus in the monastery, all of which were boiled with the most precious medicine.

It's a rare thing that Bailian didn't die after going through all his troubles!But what the monks in the temple never imagined was that the white lotus has a miraculous effect on curing diseases. Many people in poor health can recover after eating the decoction boiled with white lotus.

At the beginning, the host didn't care too much. Since Bailian has this effect, it is of course good, and it can save many people.But I don't know from which day, a few turtles and a few goldfish suddenly appeared in the white lotus pond.Once someone goes to the pool to pick flowers, they will attack in groups.

Those who didn't believe in evil were bitten when they went down to pick the flowers, and they couldn't get sick after returning. Those who dared to pick white lotuses in the pond disappeared, and as time passed, the white lotuses in the pond could not be picked casually.

I thought this white lotus would be useless in the future, because no one dared to go down and pick it!Those turtles and goldfish in the pond are not vegetarians. They get sick after being bitten, and die after being bitten again. I don’t know what kind of infectious disease they have in their mouths. Anyway, if you are not afraid of death, go pick lotus flowers and see if they can Got a few bites.

In this way, several generations passed, and there were more and more white lotuses in the pond, and there were no more flower pickers.Until a certain generation, there was a dutiful son, because his mother was ill, he tried all kinds of famous doctors but failed, so he came to this Golden Buddha Temple to try his luck. Get a lotus flower for my mother.

He persisted in this way for a year, and then he took off his shoes and went down to the pond to pick flowers. He didn't dare to go to the center, but only picked the edge of the flower and came up. As a result, no turtles and goldfish attacked him.

Seeing this situation aroused the greed of many people. They thought that there were no more turtles and goldfish in the pond, so they all jumped down to pick lotus flowers. As a result...

They were all bitten, and no one got up again after going back.So the white lotus in the Golden Buddha Temple became more famous, and the monsters in the pond, namely the turtle and the goldfish, became famous again.

Everyone was surprised, why the filial son went down to pick it and it was fine, but other people got into trouble after they went in?This question was asked by the hosts of that generation at that time.

The other party replied: "Where the opportunity comes, gold and stone will open."

So everyone understood that this white lotus can only be sought by those who have the chance.

The father and son had no chance at all, but when their father and son came to beg for Bailian, the presiding officer begged for them for the sake of their family’s good deeds, and found that they really had no chance to pick lotus, but God didn’t either. Instead of cutting off their way of life, they left a glimmer of life for them.

So the host told them that the opportunity had not come, and they couldn't ask for it now.

Over the past year, the father and son insisted on taking chances whenever they had time, and often did good deeds, so when they were getting more and more desperate, Wei Le appeared.

When the host found out, he sighed and said, if the father and son didn't show up that day, their only chance of life would be cut off, because the white lotus would only be effective if it was picked off and cooked on the same day. When the news came, the white lotus had no effect, and the host would only let Wei Le take over.

"That is to say, I gave them my chance, right?"

Wei Le lay on the table and said weakly.

"Regret?" The host asked him with a smile.

"This is not."

That boy seemed to need Bai Lian more than he did. Fortunately, they showed up that day, otherwise I really doubt whether the boy can survive this month.

"Sow kindness and reap good fruits. You have to believe that the decision you made is not wrong. If you insist on taking the white lotus wrongly on that day, the chance will not be transferred to their father and son."

After all, the good causes planted by their father and son were enough, which made them bump into this only chance of life.

"Even so, I still feel so depressed when I think about it!"

Wei Le has no regrets, but is a little depressed.He worked hard and got nothing, and even gave up his chance.Let Yi Feng know about this, and he will definitely feel sorry for him.

"But you feel very relaxed, right? Because you saved three people."

"Three people? Isn't it just teenagers?"

"Yes, three people. If something happens to the boy, his parents won't live long. Do you think you have great merit? Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. You saved the lives of three people, and you can do it yourself." How many levels of pagodas are there?"

"Hahaha, Level 21 Buddha, I am indeed a great kind person with immeasurable merit~~"

Wei Le felt very comfortable listening to the host's words, stood up with his hands on his waist and laughed.

"Amitabha, image image."

The host couldn't help persuading him to restrain himself a bit, so that outsiders would lose all his demeanor of a future hermit as a great talent.

"It's okay, this is where grandpa lives, and outsiders can't come in."

Do you think Wei Le didn't think of it?He can take his own image into consideration. He said that to be a hermit, he must maintain a superior demeanor. Although in the eyes of acquaintances he does not have the word demeanor at all, it is enough to be able to bluff outsiders.As for his own family, it is better for him to be more casual.

"..." So you just laughed out loud regardless of your image, right?A drop of sweat dripped from the host's head.This grandson can always do something unexpected.Just like he never figured out that the person who picked the flowers was his grandson, when he saw Wei Le, he saw purity from him.

Yes, it is pure, his soul is very clean.This is the best candidate to pick the lotus, and the host is willing to give the fathers a chance, it's up to them whether they can seize it.

If it's your own, you can't escape, and if it's not your own force, it may not be useful.

Of course, some people can work hard, but the premise is that they must do good deeds in exchange for the help of the host.And Wei Le was also moved by the feelings between their father and son, so he voluntarily gave up Bai Lian and gave up his chance.

It can only be said that as the host said, everything has a cause and effect, and good deeds reap good results.

But after Wei Le heard the story, he was really curious about the white lotus in the pond, so he sat by the lotus pond every day and recited scriptures, no matter what scriptures, even the Four Books and Five Classics, he also read together, and ended up hiding at the bottom of the pond. The fish and the turtle swam quietly to the stone under him and listened to his chanting.

Wei Le also brought steamed buns, and when he saw them coming, he would occasionally crush the steamed buns and sprinkle them in. The goldfish and turtles ate happily, and the distance between them and Wei Le was shortened. When Wei Le reached out to touch them , They not only won't avoid him, but sometimes rub his hand in a very human way.

"Oh, you guys are so cute."

Whether it's animals on land or creatures in the water, the cuteness of the little guys can soften the hearts of humans.Wei Le was infatuated by them in this way.Although these little guys would hide every time Zhizhi and the others approached, Wei Le was still very happy to find an opportunity to tease them and read scriptures to them along the way.

For some reason, Wei Le was always right, as if they could understand.Hehe, he must have had an illusion, how could he have such an idea?It seems that he should go home after July, and if he stays any longer, he might spread superstition.

But on this day, Wei Le would come here to recite sutras for them for a day, no matter what sutras he recited, he also found that these little guys were more lively when he recited some Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures.

Let me go, everyone said that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, goblins are not allowed to become fine, so why do they want to become fine?

But after thinking about it, Wei Le patted his forehead again. He is now in ancient times, when goblins can become spirits, so are they really going to become spirits?

Wei Le returned to the meditation room a little dizzy and meditated.

Namo Amitabha……

Reciting scriptures while knocking on the wooden fish is his newest way of reciting scriptures. He found that hypnosis is particularly effective, and he fell asleep after knocking on the wooden fish in a short while.

At this time, Wei Le would be woken up by the host with a wooden hammer.

"Grandpa, my head is not a wooden fish! It will hurt~~"

Rubbing his head, Wei Le said that it must be swollen, and the host did not show any mercy

"I tell you to chant scriptures, not to let you sleep."

The host's calm voice came faintly, and the wooden fish in his hand never stopped.

"But its sense of rhythm is so strong, I feel sleepy when I hear it!"

The beads in his hand kept spinning, even this couldn't stop Wei Le's drowsiness.

"If you can't sleep, you can't sleep. Keep reading."

The host refused him to find a reason, this was the result of his inattention, if Wei Le had been specially appointed, he could easily enter the meditation.Maybe it's almost time to go back, so Wei Le's heart has been a little impetuous these two days, and he can't calm down when doing anything.

"Why bother?"

the host asked.

"Can you really say it?" He was a little hesitant, afraid of being beaten up if he said it.

"There is nothing to say."

There is nothing you can't say, he is not a tyrant, and the other party is his only blood relative in the secular world.

"Do you want to go back with me to live for a while? Anyway, you burn incense and chant Buddha in the temple. The environment in my place is not bad, and you have a place to chant scriptures!"

Wei Le intends to persuade him to go back to live with him for a while, after all, the host is not too young, although he is in good health, he looks stronger than him.But given his age, Wei Le lived an hour away from Guo Xiangzhang, so it would be too late to come back if there was any news.
