Chapter 162 Xiao Meng’s “part-time job”
"Senior Brother Zhang Yuanshan?" Fu Zhenzhen asked with a pale face and frighteningly bright eyes, as if he had heard wrongly, seeking the last glimmer of hope.
The Taoist priest vaguely felt a little strange, but he was a monk and did not think about the emotional entanglement between men and women for the moment: "Zhang Yuanshan is one of the seven sons of the Zhenwu sect. Although he is only ranked at the bottom, he is also highly valued. If you want to get married, Only he can satisfy Song."
He thought that the two of them doubted the necessity of Zhang Yuanshan as a marriage partner.
Meng Qi next to him tried to stop him from answering, but it was too late.
"Okay, very good." Fu Zhenzhen turned around in despair, left the team, and headed in another direction outside the city.
She used Qing Kung unconsciously, as fast as a thunderbolt, as if she wanted to put this unacceptable fact behind her.
At this time, of course Meng Qi couldn't go up the mountain on his own. He sighed, started "catching wind and shadows", and chased after him.
The rest of the team looked at them in surprise, not understanding what happened. Some speculated that the two had a quarrel, and some felt that it was related to Zhang's reception not being grand enough.
The Taoist priest frowned and said secretly: "Could it be that Zhang's boy caused the romantic debt?"
Fu Zhenzhen saw mountains and rivers, running randomly in the wild, not knowing where he was going, but subconsciously trying to escape.
Meng Qi stayed with her and did not go up to persuade her. In this situation, he really didn't know what to say, so he had to follow her silently to prevent her from having an accident, which was also considered as fulfilling his duty as a small partner.
After running for a long time, Fu Zhenzhen finally ran out of energy, and his speed slowed down, getting slower and slower. In front of him was a quiet hill, on which he could vaguely see the monastery.
She covered her face with her hands and let out a whimpering sound. Meng Qi sighed and decided to go up and persuade her. Without her lover, she still has her family and disciples, so don't give up on yourself.
Suddenly, a burst of solemn drumming reached their ears.
when!
The sound of the drums is followed by the melodious and far-reaching sound of the bells, which seems to ring in everyone's heart, shaking away worries and attachments.
Fu Zhenzhen was shocked, his hands slid down, and he stared blankly in the direction where the bell was coming from. He stepped forward and walked up the stone steps of the hill, searching for the origin of the bell.
Meng Qi shook his head and followed slowly, organizing his words in his mind and thinking about how to persuade him.
There are several temples on this hill, and it is a tenacious Zen forest near the Taoist gate. It is full of incense, and the monks who come and go all seem to have ordinary skills.
Fu Zhenzhen walked up the road, passed several Buddhist temples, and stopped in front of a nunnery.
She turned her head, with a few tears still hanging on her face, and looked at Meng Qi with a slightly hollow look in her eyes: "Master has always asked me to become a monk, to become a true descendant of Yinghua Temple, to get rid of the temptation of the world, and to study "Saving People" with great concentration. Sutra", but I always want to find a good husband, with red sleeves to add fragrance, thrush eyebrows and forehead, to travel together in the world, just like my parents, so I insist on being a lay disciple. "
"Until today, I know that what Master said is true. How many couples in the world can be as loving as my father and mother? The oaths made by each other are empty, and the rubbing of the temples together is empty. The words are still in my ears. I am already married to another person. The world of mortals is full of sufferings. It’s an illusion, why can’t you become a monk?”
Meng Qi opened his mouth. The words of the organization just now were of no use again, but he was slightly relieved. It was better to become a monk than to retaliate against society. With Fu Zhenzhen's ability to use poison and medicine, Zhang Yuanshan might have to marry under the sun. .
Fu Zhenzhen just told the story, not expecting Meng Qi to answer at all. He turned around and walked into the nunnery to look for the hostess.
Meng Qi breathed out and followed him in.
This is a small nunnery with outdated furnishings. There are only about a dozen bhikkhunis, some young and old, dressed simply, with peaceful expressions, which fills the hall dedicated to the Bodhisattva with a pure atmosphere.
"Do you want to become a monk?" The hostess did not appear happy or excited because someone had converted. Instead, she asked solemnly.
Fu Zhenzhen lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, kneeling on the futon: "Yes."
"You have tears in your eyes, and you are followed by a man. You must be emotionally hurt. If you are impulsive, it is better not to become a monk." The hostess advised Fu Zhenzhen.
The corner of Meng Qi's mouth twitched. I'm just an enthusiastic friend. This matter has nothing to do with me!
Fu Zhenzhen repeated what he had just said to Meng Qi, and looked at the hostess with misty eyes: "Love is false, so please make it true."
The presiding master sighed: "Since you are a disciple of Buddhism, I will comply with your wishes. I hope you can study Buddhism calmly and truly achieve enlightenment."
Fu Zhenzhen was from Yinghua Temple, so he would definitely go back and get the naming certificate and so on. Therefore, there were not too complicated steps here, and Fu Zhenzhen was soon kneeling in front of the Bodhisattva statue.
The presiding master glanced at Meng Qi and did not ask him to leave. He let him watch and walked up to Fu Zhenzhen with a razor in hand.
"I ask you again, do you really want the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha?" Her expression became solemn.
Fu Zhenzhen looked at the green lantern in front of him and nodded slightly: "Yes."
Meng Qi took a step subconsciously and opened his mouth, but in the end he did not speak to dissuade him. He watched the hostess put the razor on Fu Zhenzhen's head and watched the strands of black hair falling.
"All worries are over, and the world of mortals is far away." The hostess recited these words to Fu Zhenzhen while shaving her hair.
Fu Zhenzhen gritted her teeth. As her hair gradually fell, she relaxed a little, showing a look of relief.
Listening to the words "The troubles are gone, the mortal world is far away", Meng Qi seemed to have returned to the time when he first came to this world. He thought of his master and younger brother, and suddenly felt sad in his heart.
Soon, Fu Zhenzhen finished losing his black hair, went to the back hall, changed into ziyi, put on a monk's hat, and walked to Meng Qi calmly.
Seeing her dressed as a nun, and seeing the green lights in the meditation hall like beans, Meng Qi felt something in his heart. All kinds of emotions surged up, and he sang in a low voice: "The sound of prosperity escapes into the empty door and disturbs the world, but the dream is cold." How many love debts have I had in my life..."
Fu Zhenzhen originally wanted to force a laugh at the country slang song sung by Meng Qi, but after listening to it, she gradually became obsessed with it and shed two more lines of tears.
The green lanterns flickered, and there was an indescribable loneliness and coldness.
Meng Qi calmed down his emotions, stopped singing, and sighed.
Fu Zhenzhen forced a smile and said, "Why did you suddenly sing a country slang song?"
Meng Qi looked at him and smiled: "If you don't want to sing this, I'll recite Buddhist scriptures to you."
"From love arises sorrow, from love arises fear. If you are separated from the one you love, there will be no sorrow and no fear."
His voice was calm, and the Buddhist sutras echoed in the meditation hall, making him feel like the mortal world was like a dream.
"From love comes sorrow, from love comes fear. If you are separated from the one you love, there is no worry or fear..." Fu Zhenzhen repeated it several times in a low voice, becoming more and more crazy.
Alas, idiot, Meng Qi sighed again in his heart.
After a long time, Fu Zhenzhen came to his senses and deliberately changed the subject: "I thought you would help him prevent me from becoming a monk."
After all, Meng Qi and Zhang Yuanshan have known each other for a longer time and have a deeper friendship. She has no doubt that Meng Qi will side with Zhang Yuanshan.
"If the heart is impure, even if all the black hair is gone, being a Buddhist monk is just a superficial effort and does not count as a monk at all. You can return to secular life at any time. If the heart is empty and you have seen through the world of mortals, even if you sing and sing every night and enjoy all the glory, You are also a monk." Meng Qi said with a serious expression, "There is no Buddha in your heart. The worldly world and the world of Buddhism are all in your heart. How can I stop you?"
Fu Zhenzhen listened with rapt attention, and at the end he smiled bitterly: "I always thought you were a not-so-serious monk. I didn't expect that after you left Shaolin, you turned out to be like an eminent monk."
"Of course." Meng Qi was not "modest", "So, tonsure is nothing. If you figure it out, you can naturally return to secular life like me. If you feel sad and desperate again, you can find a nunnery anywhere and continue to become a monk. It’s that simple to get in and out, but it’s hard to grow hair.”
Even though Fu Zhenzhen was heartbroken and soul-broken, he almost laughed out loud. Just a moment ago, he praised him for being like a monk, but in the next moment he became serious.
However, this is the familiar Xiao Meng.
Meng Qi glanced at Fu Zhenzhen and suddenly sighed: "After thinking about it, it's not a good idea to become a nun."
"You want to stop me now?" Fu Zhenzhen asked dumbfounded.
Meng Qi nodded solemnly: "Anyway, we are far away from the mortal world, so why bother to become a nun? A Taoist nun is also a monk. She doesn't need to lose her hair. She looks much better than you do now, and it will be easier to come in and out in the future."
Phew, Fu Zhenzhen finally couldn't help but laugh. Xiao Meng was so funny. He could make jokes about such serious and sad things to lighten the atmosphere.
Smiling and laughing, her tears came out again.
After a while, she sighed quietly: "Meng Qi, thank you for your explanation. I feel much better now."
"I speak from my heart." Meng Qicai said seriously without admitting that he was comforting Fu Zhenzhen just now.
At this time, a familiar male voice sounded outside the door: "Master, have you ever seen a woman and a man? The woman is so tall..."
Is Senior Brother Zhang chasing you? Is the engagement party over? Meng Qi was stunned.
Fu Zhenzhen's face changed drastically, and he turned pale and said to Meng Qi: "I don't want to see him! Send him away for me."
"I will talk to Senior Brother Zhang." Meng Qi knew that Fu Zhenzhen was very emotional at this time, and Zhang Yuanshan's coming in was probably another Qiong Yao love drama, and it might even be counterproductive, so he planned to go out and pull Zhang Yuanshan away to let Fu Zhenzhen calm down. Jing, I also want to figure out the engagement myself and see if there are any misunderstandings or things that can be remedied.
After finishing speaking, he suddenly remembered something, and felt a little sad in his heart. He sighed and said: "My dream has always been to become a swordsman in white clothes, free and unrestrained. Who knows, now, now, I look like a neighborhood committee aunt!"
Specializing in mediating emotional, marriage and family issues... This style of painting is getting more and more wrong...
"Auntie from the neighborhood committee?" Fu Zhenzhen was confused.
"Forget it, you don't understand." Meng Qi covered his face and walked out of the nunnery to face Zhang Yuanshan.
"Really, Junior Brother Meng, is it really true?" Zhang Yuanshan asked excitedly and pleasantly when he saw Meng Qi coming out.
"Let her calm down for a while." Meng Qi breathed out, "Let's go drink, you say it and I listen."
