Chapter 88 1. Become a monk in Shaolin Temple

Chapter 88 1. Go to Shaolin Temple to be a monk

During the Song Dynasty, on the Shaoshi Mountain, a middle-aged couple pulled a child while walking inside and spoke to the child.

"Ying'er, uncle and aunt really can't support you, so she sent you to Shaolin Temple. When you arrive in the temple, you must listen to your master's words!"

"I know." The child lowered his head and said obediently.

"My parents left early and didn't leave you with younger brothers and sisters. Now you also want to become a monk. Isn't this going to break up your father? Alas!" the middle-aged man said with a sigh.

The child raised his head and said, "Uncle is fine. At worst, I can just return to the secular world again. I will still have a future in the Xie family in the future."

Hearing such unscrupulous words from the child, the middle-aged woman hurriedly covered the child's mouth: "Don't talk nonsense, let the master in the temple hear it and will not accept you."

The child quickly stopped talking and just walked up the mountain with small steps.

The middle-aged woman continued, "We Ying'er is so smart, she will definitely be taken as an apprentice by the masters of Shaolin Temple. Wasn't the child of the Qiao family also accepted as an apprentice by the masters of the temple?"

The man shook his head and explained, "He is different. He is a lay disciple. Although he worshipped Master Xuanku, he did not enter Shaolin Temple to be a monk."

Huicong walked in front, and several children followed behind. After walking for a while, he came to a small courtyard.

"I have never learned it, I just wrote down the four words you wrote. My name is Wang Shi, and my parents call me Shi Tou."

While writing, he said, "Phase, Dharma, emptiness, color."

When they saw Huicong coming, the novice monks shouted: "Senior Brother Huicong." It seems that the novice monks here know him.

Huicong said to several people: "You are six people, so there is no need to open another room. You all live here. The people outside are all your senior brothers. They came early and you can ask them if you don't understand anything." After that, he left.

"Yes." Another child agreed.

"Wang Shi, is the stone of the stone? You are very good." Huicong nodded, and then said to the adults behind him: "Dear donors, these children are all very good, and all Shaolin Temple stayed."

"Not bad." HCong nodded.

"good."

"I'm farewell." Huicong clasped his hands together and bowed, then opened the back door and walked in with the child.

Huicong wrote another word "王" to ask Xie Ying. Xie Ying also answered truthfully and received good reviews.

So the three of them were waiting there. After a while, a "squeak" sounded, and the back door was opened, and a monk in yellow walked out of the inside. Everyone waiting outside quickly folded their hands and said, "Master, you are out."

"Why is the master value Ying'er? This child is so smart?" the woman sighed.

Every time Huicong heard hello, he would nod, knowing that he had taken a few children to a meditation room. He pushed open the door and the bed and quilt inside were all complete, and it seemed that he had prepared in advance.

"This is not fate! But when Ying'er enters Shaolin Temple and studies Buddhism well, maybe our Xie family will have another master in the future!" The man began to fantasize.

The three of them walked up the mountain and did not enter through the main entrance of Shaolin Temple but went around to the back door. There were still several children there who were taken by adults and waited there, both of whom were only five or six years old.

Then he took out a lot of silver and handed it to several people, continuing, "I know you are not selling your children, but you have sent them to Shaolin Temple. I guess it is because the family is in trouble. I will give you the money to you to go back and save it! If life is better in the future, you can also take the children back!"

"I'm afraid I'm going to be sad tonight." Xie Ying sighed deeply.

Then the words were erased, and another word "color" was written, pointing to a child and asked, "What is this?"

"Master Huicong, please start!" an adult said to Huicong.

After asking the two children in this way, they answered them, but when they asked the last child, the child did not answer.

The child replied: "Fa."

"Okay, let the children come here." Huicong agreed, then picked up a branch and wrote four words in the open space next to him. And the children stood beside him, watching him write a few words.

There are also many bare-headed little novice monks here, but they are all a little bigger than the ones who have just arrived.

Huicong said to the child, and in fact, to the parents behind him: "Our disciples in Shaolin Temple all need to recite scriptures and chant Buddha's name, so they have to read the first lesson in the temple. If the qualifications are too stupid, they cannot be accepted."

Xie Ying was watching the children chattering and talking, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. When they arrived at night, they found that their parents had not come to pick them up, would they cry loudly? After all, what age they were?

Then he pointed to the four words on the ground and said, "These four words are form, emptiness, law, and appearance. You can write down these four words."

Huicong thought he couldn't, and was about to shake his head, but he didn't expect that the child also picked up a branch and wrote these four words on the ground.

After waiting for a while, he wiped the handwriting on the ground with his feet. Then he wrote the word "Fa" on the ground, pointing to a child and asked, "What is this?"

As soon as Huicong left, the children's nature recovered. They walked in quickly and jumped onto the bed. One child said, "Wow, this bed is so soft, and the family is not so good."

Another child asked Wang Shi: "Your name is Wang Shi, you are so awesome! You have only read it a few times before, and you can write those words."

"Amitabha, I have seen all the donors, and I am Huicong." The monk also clasped his hands together and returned to his tribute.

Since he died of old age in the world of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, he thought he would lose consciousness forever. But in fact, he suddenly woke up again, and it was in a toddler.

Wang Shi said proudly: "That's right, I have a good memory since I was a child. It's enough to read it a few times. It's very simple."

Huicong said in surprise: "Have you known the word? What's your name?"

"Thank you, Master." These adults thanked them all.

"color."

At first, he just knew that he was Xie Ying and had no other memories. As he grew up, he slowly remembered the events of his previous life.

It turned out that I was a second time travel. In my last life, I was the founding emperor of an empire, but those were all the past and now they are just a young child.

Originally, Xie Ying was a child with both parents, but unfortunately her father fell off the cliff later, and her mother died of illness. Xie Ying was picked up by her uncle, but her uncle also had a child and had no spare time to raise the child, so she had to send him to Shaolin Temple to be a monk.

Unlike the world of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, he soon knew this time that it was the world of the Heavenly Dragon Ba tribe, because he met Xiao Feng, one of the protagonists of the Heavenly Dragon Ba tribe, and of course he is still called Qiao Feng.
