[Journey to the West] So I am Monk Tang

Master Fa Ming didn't agree to me, he felt that I was just heartbroken at this time, and the decision I made was a bit hasty.The pure land of Buddhism should not be a place to escape.

But Master Fa Ming is my real master after all. He raised me from a young age, but he said it harshly. He didn't agree with me to become a monk, but he took me by his side, just like before, as if my winter came and went, and spring went away. It seemed that the half a year that Qiulai spent at the foot of the mountain did not exist.

It's just that something has changed.

In addition to reciting scriptures, I spend most of my time thinking about that cute and cute girl. Even when I was carving amulets, I would unknowingly make the eyebrows and eyes of the Buddha statues look like her.However, I stopped making amulets with Buddha images when I first found out about it.

This kind of behavior made me feel that I almost became Li Xunhuan. I am not as talented as him, but I don't want to sacrifice myself like him.

Yes, even though I said goodbye to my sweetheart, I still feel that I am luckier than Li Xunhuan who gave up his sweetheart.If I change my background, I wouldn't be so ignorant, but don't forget that the era I'm in now, even though it's the Tang Dynasty, is full of gods, ghosts and ghosts.If I never see each other again, I might not be as calm as I am now, but if I can communicate with Yin and Yang, enter the underworld, isn't it just around the corner to see my sweetheart again?

My master was right in rejecting me at the beginning, because at that time I lost my sense of proportion because of the accident of my sweetheart, and my mind was full of becoming a monk, gaining fame and hugging my thighs, and then finding a way to meet my sweetheart in the underworld, which was extremely utilitarian.

But now I was thrown into the Jingge by my master to meditate, and I have calmed down a lot.Although my plan has not changed, but I am not so impatient.

But in my Master Faming's mind, my performance probably still failed.He became stricter with me. In addition to homework in the morning and evening, he also picked out many scriptures in the Jingge for me to copy.

What I believe in is that one trick is eaten all over the world. Although I have memorized all the scriptures in the Jingge, but with Master Faming's half-volume fragments of scriptures in front of me, my understanding of these scriptures is only limited. Memorized above.At this time, being locked up in the Jing Pavilion and copying word by word gave me a slightly different experience.

Most of these scriptures talk about how to save oneself, but the half volume of the scriptures written by my Master Fa Ming talks about how to save others.

This is probably the reason why we can gain fame after repeated successes when we go out to do things.

I am not the only one copying scriptures in Jingge, besides the original monks in Jinshan Temple, there are also several scholars.They each have their own worries, and they are not rich in money, so they borrow to live in the temple and do some copying work to subsidize their living.At that time, there were woodblock printing, and there were such scriptures in Jinshan Temple. However, many pilgrims prefer to copy the scriptures word by word with a pen and then bind them into books, or enshrine them at home, or read and recite them. This is more pious.

Most of the handwritten scriptures are completed by such scholars. What if they were copied by famous monks in the temple?Alas!It would take a lot of money to bring them home.

I used to be my Master Faming's follower, either following out to do things, or carving amulets in the temple. Later, Master Fahai became the host, and I didn't have to do the work of carving amulets. I only needed to be responsible. Consecrate the Buddha cards carved by others.Therefore, I have never done such a serious job of copying scriptures.

I think my handwriting is good, but I don't know what price I can get.Of course, even if the selling price is paid, it is still the public property of the temple, but this is also an important indicator of status evaluation.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the winter here is not very easy, the cold and damp wind can almost penetrate into the bones of people.On this day, I was sitting in the scripture pavilion, and I had to rub my fingers after copying a page of scriptures. My fingers were a little red from the cold, but fortunately there were no sores, but in this way, the efficiency plummeted.

But Master Fa Ming asked me to come here to cultivate my mind, not abuse my body, so I feel at ease for being lazy.

The door of the Scripture Pavilion was pushed open, and a scholar walked in eagerly. He looked around a few times and found that I was the only one in the huge Scripture Pavilion, and walked towards me without hesitation.There was still a coldness on his body, and a faint smell of wine and meat.

I blinked my eyes and didn't say much. After all, this is just a scholar who spends the night in the temple to copy scriptures to subsidize his life. He is not a monk in this temple, so he doesn't have so many precepts.

But when it comes to wine and meat, do you still remember that when I was a child, I had an infinite yearning for eating meat?In the previous six months of my life at the foot of the mountain, I also tried to relapse, but how should I say it?After being a vegetarian for 16 years, I actually don't have that desire for meat anymore, but there is still a little urge to move in my heart.However, when I put the first piece of meat in my life with a chopstick, I just chewed it and almost spit out the bile.

I can't look back on the past. I never knew that meat was such an unpalatable thing.It's not from poor workmanship, but my body is saying no.

At that time, my sweetheart cooked a little bit of broth for me to let me get used to it slowly, but in the end...

"Master Jinchan." He walked in front of me, with eager excitement in his eyes that couldn't be concealed, which made me curious.

"What's the matter?" I sat up straight, looking indifferent.

In front of outsiders, I pay great attention to image engineering.

He seemed embarrassed to say something, but the desire in his heart overwhelmed the embarrassment, "I want to save some money, I don't know..."

Oh, I see, he is short of money.This is nothing, I got up, took him upstairs, and pointed to the row on the bookshelf, "These are scriptures that need to be copied, and the rest are old rules."

"My money is quick to bite..." He was still a little embarrassed.

I was stunned for a moment. I have a good impression of him on weekdays. I remember that he is a down-to-earth person, but now he is in urgent need of money.I pondered for a moment, "But something urgent?"

He nodded, "Your Majesty will post the recruitment list again. I want to go to Chang'an for the exam, and I need travel expenses."

"This is a good thing." I suddenly realized.

The recruitment list here is just a unified statement, and the talents recruited are different every time, but what can make scholars so excited is probably the imperial examination.I don’t know if my memory is wrong or the situation is like this at this time. The so-called imperial examinations are not held at fixed times. If there are fewer people working, then they will be held more frequently; if there are enough people, they will be held once every ten or eight years. Not surprising.If I were a scholar, I'm not sure that I would have been waiting for a little chance, but surprisingly, among the scholars I know, no one complained about this, but felt that the emperor Shengming gave them such poor children A chance to get ahead.

I decided to lend some money to the scholar so that he could study and prepare carefully, and not be distracted by copying scriptures.

He was very grateful, and he didn't rush to leave. He pulled me to talk about his role model, who is also the governor of this place, Chen E and Chen Guangrui.This person was the number one scholar in the 13th year of Zhenguan, married the daughter of the prime minister's family, and became the governor of a state. He is really a model for scholars in the world.

I do know that person, but that person was already the governor of Jiangzhou when I was born, and I am seventeen now, and he is still the governor of Jiangzhou, and there is no sign of promotion. I have to doubt that this Is he a guy with high scores and low energy?
