1.59 Mentorship and apprenticeship
Ximen Qing sighed and knelt, seeing and listening to Master Wufei's eyes and ears, the old monk also had mixed feelings, regrets, and likes.
At that time, Ximen Qing was a good talent who practiced martial arts, and his mind and understanding were all the first talents, if he were not a lay disciple, the mantle of Longtan Temple would have been passed on to him.
Therefore, the degenerate Ximen Qing made the old monk sigh many times, and deeply regretted that he had no way to be a teacher, and only cared about teaching him martial arts, but did not teach him more in virtue.
Ximen Qing, the most outstanding disciple of Longtan Temple, has always been a deep illness in the heart of the old monk.
Who knew that not long ago, a guest who entered the incense came with a message, saying that the official of Qinghe Ximen was the reincarnation of Tianxing, and the merit cake launched by his person saved the suffering like a god. Others will be skeptical when they hear it, but Master Wufei suddenly realized that it is no wonder that Ximen Qing practiced martial arts when he was a teenager to touch the bypass, and he can understand the mystery of the tricks after seeing and passing through his hands.
Since then, Master Wu Fei has paid attention to it, Ximenqing's news, day by day, said that after he returned to the soul of the underworld, he changed his mind, as if he had changed another person, not only the previous bad habits were all quit, but also did good deeds and spared no effort, after the porridge shed and medicine shed at home was opened, I don't know how many poor families in the neighborhood were killed.
After Master Wufei listened, he couldn't sit still anymore, and after the New Year, he went to Qinghe, carefully inspected, heard and saw, and then believed that Ximen Qing turned back from the bitter sea, but it was a sincere one.
Therefore, Master Wu Fei appeared to see him. At this time, I saw Ximenqing kneeling on the ground, claiming that his former Dharma name was colorless, although the old monk regretted in his heart that he had wasted ten years, how many decades could he have in his life? However, seeing Ximenqing's real reform made Master Wufei even more happy.
At that moment, the monk's robe was flicked, and a soft force lifted Ximenqing's body up, and Master Wufei sighed: "Alas! Colorless! You've finally grown up! ”
Ximen Qing was speechless, and the master and apprentice just nodded to each other. But Ximenqing reacted immediately, and immediately drank the family members who were still kneeling on the ground, and invited Master Wufei in respectfully.
Entering the study, Ximen Qing let Master Wufei sit down in the center, and he wanted to pay a big salute, he thought that although the man had gold under his knees, this master was a real virtue and art, and he knelt down to him, and he should be.
Master Wufei flicked the sleeves of his robe, supported Ximenqing's body again, waved his hand and said: "Monks, not limited to vulgar etiquette!" Sit down, and the teacher has something to ask you! The old monk said in his heart: "My disciple is a reincarnated celestial star, if you eat him, I am afraid that the old monk will not be able to bear it!" ”
Seeing that Master Wufei didn't let him kneel down and kowtow, Ximen Qing complied with his wishes, so he immediately sat down on the next chair and said respectfully: "If the master has something to ask, the disciple knows everything." ”
Master Wu Fei asked: "After the New Year's sting, everything recovers, what will happen to your porridge shed and medicine shed at that time?" ”
Ximen Qing said: "Master, there is no day in the world that is not sick, and there is no day when there is no poverty, but the apprentice can help heal the sick, but he cannot help the poor." Why? For those who are sick and sick, the patient is also unable to do it independently, so it is natural for the child to apply medicine to save people; However, if the poor are given fish all day long, and their bodies are safe and their limbs are strong, will not they invisibly stifle their people's self-reliance? Therefore, after the spring, the medicine shed for the disciples will still be opened, but the porridge shed will be suspended. ”
Master Wu Fei muttered: "Although your words are reasonable, but those hungry people are waiting to be fed, if you don't do anything, it is not my Buddha's mercy." ”
Ximen Qingheshi said: "Master, the disciple is not hard-hearted, he does not give the hungry people fish, but wants to teach the hungry people to fish!" In the past few days, I have bought all the wilderness land outside Qinghe County, and the title deed will be available in a few days. As soon as spring arrives and the ground is warm, these hungry people will be allowed to take hoes, rakes and plows to open up the wasteland and cultivate the land. With the power of one husband, it is enough to support a few people, and the word poverty is no longer enough to worry about at this time, and the only people who are worried about it are the homeless people who are not diligent and idle. ”
Master Wu Fei said: "Amitabha! In this way, the merit is not small. It's just that I don't know that after the autumn harvest, what is your land rent? As he spoke, the old monk's two awe-inspiring eyes fell directly on Ximenqing's face and shone into his heart.
Facing Master Wufei's gaze, Ximen Qing said proudly: "Master, the disciple's move is to atone for the sins of muddling and insensitive in the past, how can he use it to make profits, eat the ointment of the hungry people and fatten himself?" If the hungry people reap the harvest and let it go their own way, the more joy they have on their faces, the more I have lessened the one of my past wrongs! ”
The master and apprentice looked at each other, Master Wufei's eyes were as cold as electricity, and Ximenqing faced calmly and talked eloquently, without falling behind at all. Master Wu Fei sighed in his heart: "I am a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, and those who have ghosts in their hearts dare not face it like this." My heart has changed in vain, but I am also very religious! ”
How did Master Wufei know that since Ximen Qing got Ye Zhiqiu's nine-character mantra of "don't deceive, don't lie, and keep honest and shameful", he has always kept it in mind, and at this time, he told the truth, since he was able to reach in his heart, he was naturally not afraid of the gods of Buddhism like electricity.
Master Wu Fei chanted the Buddha's name at the moment, stood up on the chair, and sighed: "Colorless, your little benevolence today is enough to atone for a thousand sins in the past." The master didn't look away back then, you are really still that good boy like gold and jade! It has taken seven or eight years to teach you a lesson! ”
Ximenqing felt the warm eyes of the old monk, and suddenly felt an indescribable emotion in his heart, and said secretly: "The people I have made friends today are all more for me and less for me. I, Ximen Qingtang, a man, must not live up to the trust in this vision! ”
Thinking of the earnestness, the heart of admiration arose, and suddenly bowed down, and said respectfully: "Master! This voice is sincere, and it really melts into the fiery true temperament after being alone in this other world.
At this moment, the master and apprentice had the same mind, and Master Wu Fei personally helped Ximen Qing, who was prostrating, and stroked his head, with tears in his eyes: "Alas! Colorless, colorless! Fortunately, you are lost, otherwise, if you let the teacher clean the door with your own hands in the future, how can you let the teacher do it?! ”
Ximen Qing also choked up and said: "In the past, all kinds of rights and wrongs were all Ximen Qing should die!" "What he said is not bad at all, the Ximenqing in the past has nothing to do with him now.
Master Wu Fei is the boundless Dharma, how can he hear the deep meaning of his words? The old monk patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Colorless, when I visited the teacher, I heard that you once got rid of a quack doctor and called Zhao Troublemaker, when he was apprenticed, you once said that sixteen words are not sages, how can you be without fault?" The bitter sea turns back, and the good is great! This remark has won the heart of a teacher, and it can be seen that your repentance is full of Western bliss. From now on, there is no need to dwell on the past, just look forward! ”
Ximen Qing said respectfully: "The disciple respectfully obeys the master's teachings!" ”
Suddenly, Ximenqing's heart moved, and he thought: "I have been in good hands for all the things during the Zhenghe period, but it is useless to stay at home." Today's arrival of the master is a great opportunity, why don't I take this opportunity to achieve a great thing in my heart? "This is exactly what it is:
There are many people in the world, and there are also lantern bearers in Buddhism. But I don't know what Ximenqing is asking for, and listen to the next decomposition.
