"Thousands of families irrigate rice, full of rivers and fields." This is a poem by Fan Zhongyan in the Song Dynasty describing the scene of the rice fields of the Jin Temple in Shanxi. The rice of the Jin Temple has a long reputation as a tribute, and is known as "a unique rice in the north".

It is now the golden autumn of September, the wind is cool, the rice in the farmland has been cleaned up, and the joy of the harvest is still vaguely left in the field. At noon, on the field road at the head of the village, two people came, a monk in front and a child in the back, who were Haizheng and Ah Guang.

"Light, it's getting colder, I'm going to have to put on a thick coat for you. If a benefactor would give a few feet of cloth, I will sew one for you to make it fit better. ”

"It's good to tear the cloth and sew it, it's not tattered! I don't want it, like Hanako! ”

"This kid! Whoever gives to the Lord shall not be selective, nor shall he be disliked. ”

"Anyway, I don't want to be called Hanako, and you don't accept me as an apprentice, and I'm not a monk, I just eat and drink with you, don't expect me to listen to you for everything!"

"Amitabha, take people with short hands and eat people with soft mouths, haven't you heard of it, follow me to eat and drink, you have to listen to me, don't accept you as a disciple, you haven't been honored by the master yet......"

"Master Haizheng, you can also put yourself into a robe, I am cold, you are cold!"

Haizheng laughed and said: "You kid, difficult is difficult, your heart is not bad, but you care about me, the poor monk is not afraid of the cold, the cold winter is nine, this single dress on the body is enough." Wear thick clothes, one is to be inconspicuous, and the other is to save food. ”

"Master Haizheng is such a high martial artist, why can't I learn it? Why did the inner strength and mental method you taught me not work at all? ”

Haizheng Zhengse said: "It's only been a few days!" There is no such quick effort in the world! Practitioners are most afraid of rushing for success. You listened, the most important thing to practice martial arts is to bear hardships and stand hard work, step by step. I practiced martial arts at the age of seven, and only peeked at the door after ten years, but I had to see the master's strong recommendation, entered the Dharma Academy, and practiced for seven years before I had the feeling of entering the house. I'm still one of the best among all the senior brothers, and many senior brothers have practiced for forty or fifty years without peeping into the door...... You, you have to remember that practicing martial arts is like climbing a mountain, and you haven't even started to take the first step! You first learned the mental method I taught you, and then you took the first step to move, and you are far from the time to covet the beautiful scenery on the mountain, understand? ”

Ah Guang nodded silently, and after a while, he said, "Master Haizheng, I'm so hungry, I have no strength, and I can't walk." ”

At this time, the rice fields had passed, and a small river more than two feet wide was seen running through the countryside. I followed the river to the head of the village and saw a farmhouse. The ground around the farmhouse is a little higher, and there are farmers who have reclaimed the wasteland and made a vegetable field, and a peasant woman is hoeing grass in the vegetable field, and a little girl of seven or eight years old is playing next to the peasant woman.

"After walking for a long time, you should be tired, you rest here, I'll go to the village to make a relationship." Haizheng said, striding towards a row of farmhouses not far away.

Ah Guang found a stump in the shade of a tree and sat down, pinched his legs, and rested for a while.

The little peasant girl hid behind a tree and stared at him secretly. Ah Guang beckoned to her, the girl hurriedly turned around, pretending not to see, and when she secretly turned to look, Ah Guang beckoned to her again, the girl hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage and walked over slowly.

Ah Guang said happily: "Little sister, play with me!" How old are you? The girl said, "Seven years old." Ah Guang asked again, "What's your name?" The little girl hesitated for a moment, and Ah Guang continued, "My name is Ah Guang." The little girl said in a low voice, "My name is Haruka." Ah Guang said: "Your voice is so good, do you all talk like this?" The little girl bowed her head and did not answer.

Ah Guang took the little girl's hand and said, "Let's be friends, I haven't had a friend since I was a child, and you will be my good friend in the future, okay?" The little girl snorted. Ah Guang was very happy, patted the little girl's shoulder, and said, "You are so good!" Come, I'll play with you, what do you like to play? ”

The little girl took out five round stones the size of her finger from her pocket, found a clean and flat ground, sat on the ground, threw the stone to the ground, twisted a stone, threw it into the air, grabbed a stone on the ground with her hand, and turned it over to catch the falling stone. So she threw one in her hand, and grabbed one on the ground, and caught the stone, so that she had three stones in her hand, and two more on the ground. This was repeated two more times, and all five stones fell into the hand. She threw all five stones to the ground again, picked up another one, and threw it into the air, this time her hand grabbed two stones at a time on the ground, and then caught the falling stones, just threw the stones up, grabbed the remaining two again, Ah Guang grabbed the stones in the air, and said: "It's not fun, it's not fun, the girl's family loves to play so naïve, come on, let's go to the river to catch frogs!" ”

The little girl shook her head.

Ah Guang unfolded the stone in his hand and said, "Let's go, I'll return it to you when I go to the river." The little girl said, "My mother won't let me go to the river to play." Ah Guang glanced back at the peasant woman, who was concentrating on hoeing, did not look at this side, and said in a low voice: "Let's go secretly, your mother won't know." The little girl shook her head.

Ah Guang threw the stone in his hand at the little girl's feet and said, "Coward! Don't dare, if you don't go, I'll go! The little girl picked up the stone and was about to cry. Ah Guang didn't go alone, he pulled the little girl's hand and said, "Let's go!" ”

Ah Guang made a lot of effort in his hand, and the little girl cried and cried: "I'm not going, I'm not going, woo woo, I won't be friends with you anymore!" Woooooo When the peasant woman heard the commotion, she cried out, "Chunxiang! Haruka! The little girl answered, and ran away.

Ah Guang hurriedly walked to the river to avoid the peasant woman coming to kill him, and when he reached the riverside, he squatted down, thinking that the peasant woman could not see himself at a glance, stared at the water surface for a while, and muttered: "Don't play with me yet, I don't want to play with you yet!" Not a good thing! Don't be friends with me, I'm not friends with you yet! Phew! ”

He "phew", alarmed a frog next to him, jumped up, fell into the water, and slowly floated up, sat on a branch, and looked at Ah Guang. Ah Guang didn't see this frog at first, he was startled, and scolded: "Dead thing, the weather is getting cold, don't hide yet, still jump high here!" How can such a small thing jump so high, if only I could jump like this...... Wouldn't it be okay to jump up a tree or a roof? ”

He felt a pebble on the ground in his hand, and was about to go hunt the frog, when suddenly it occurred to him something more fun. So he stood up on tiptoe, gently took off his shoes, pretended to put his feet into the river to wash his feet, and tried the bottom of the river with his feet. Suddenly, he lunged at the frog and grabbed it in his hands with both hands.

He smiled and said, "You jumped so high!" If Master Haizheng hadn't let me eat meat, I would have skinned you and scorched you, hehe! Jump so high, right, I told you to jump! He took the frog in his hand, picked up a few straws on the ground with the other hand, put the pebbles on the frog's back, tied them with straw, tied them up after a while, tied them in a dead knot, and put the frog on the ground. A few stumbles and paddled into the water, and Ah Guang laughed.

Suddenly, Haizheng's voice sounded behind him: "Amitabha! Ah Guang looked back, stood up and shouted, "Master Haizheng! You're back! Haha, look! It's fun! Haizheng chanted "Amitabha" repeatedly, picked up a stone chip on the ground, and with a flick, the stone chip shot out, cutting the straw on the frog's back, and the pebble slipped away, and the frog "cooed" and jumped into the aquatic weed, running away without a trace.

Haizheng's face was solemn, and he said: "My Buddha is merciful, God has the virtue of a good life, you must not kill, and you must not mutilate living beings." Ah Guang said: "A frog, is it worth it!" Pull a face! Every year, I don't know how many I caught, peeled, cooked, and eaten! What are you going to do? You can still disembowel me! So fierce! That's how I just want to play, what! You go to the blackboard all day with a face, I don't have any playmates, I'm going to play like this, and then I'll catch one and tie one to one, fish, shrimp, cat, dog, all tied to stones! Don't let you play yet! ”
