96 Uphill(1/2)
Not long after the monk left, the rain stopped and Gu Jiao went to the temple to pick up Xiao Jingkong.
Xiao Jingkong spent a pleasant and fulfilling day at the temple, to be exact, half a day.
He met the gentle and considerate Senior Brother Jingchen, several other Senior Brothers, the abbot, and his former playmate Jingfan, Jingxin, and the young monk Jingshan.
Because the abbot and his senior brothers had something to do, he spent the longest time with the three little monks.
Because there was no Qingkong to grab food, the three little monks had sufficient nutrients, and each one was better than before.
Xiao Jingkong was not the original Xiao Jingkong - he changed out of monk's clothes and wore folk children's clothes, and small hair stakes also grew on his bald head.
Among the young monks, he was actually the youngest, but he spoke the earliest and best, and even the abbot of the abbot could not say anything about him later.
He showed his little face to the little monks with great pride: "Did you see Xiaoyaya? It was given to me by Jiaojiao!"
"I saw it, I saw it!" Jingfan said.
"I saw it too!" Jingxin said.
Jingshan thought for a moment with a confused look on his face, and said slowly: "Then... I saw it too!"
Xiao Jingkong is very satisfied.
"Will that bud sprout grow into small hair (Huahua)?" Jingfan asked pointing to his little face.
Xiao Jingkong paused and shook his head: "It shouldn't be, they will only grow into kisses and always be on my face!"
"Can you eat it?" Jingfan asked.
"Can't eat it." Xiao Jingkong said.
They could neither grow into beautiful hair or eat it. The three little monks instantly lost interest in kissing Xiaoyayaya.
But Xiao Jingkong has something else here.
Xiao Jingkong decisively took out a can of vegetarian meatballs that Gu Jiao had packed for him. After opening the lid, a scent of scallion and crispy wafted out, almost filling most of the yard.
The little monks were all shocked.
Jingfan widened his eyes: "What, what is so fragrant?"
The saliva of the three of them flowed down.
Xiao Jingkong wanted to eat meat but couldn't eat it. So Gu Jiao thought of a way to make vegetarian meat with tofu and other ingredients.
He can eat whatever he eats at home - for example, when he eats roast duck at home, he also has "roasted duck"; when he eats sausage at home, he also has "raised sausage"; when he eats braised pork at home, he also has "raised pork".
Recently, he was eating meatballs at home, so he had his own exclusive Jingkong small meatballs.
Xiao Jingkong ate a small meatball in front of his friends, and his strength shocked his friends!
The little monks were shocked again!
"You, you... are you eating meat?"
"Aren't you dizzy?"
"God, it's so scary! Senior brother, I want to go home!"
Xiao Jingkong is not a child with a bad taste. After showing off his might, he confessed the truth about the meatballs: "It's vegetarian meat, Jiaojiao said that monks can eat it too!"
The three little monks were hesitant at first, afraid that they would be deceived by Jingkong to break the precepts. In the end, the little brother Jingfan of the three tasted it with the spirit of sacrifice that I would not go to hell, and then it was out of control.
Xiao Jingkong, who has never been able to grab food for others, encountered the first wave of grab food in his life!
He was stunned for three seconds!
He is a little expert in snatching food in the temple and has been focusing on snatching food for three and a half years. One day, he was actually snatched food by someone else?
Not only were the meatballs robbed, but even the snacks and wild fruits were not spared.
The three former defeated generals seemed to have their skills filled in an instant, robbing Xiao Jingkong without any defense.
Xiao Jingkong's little fist hit his chest sadly, and he came out to make a fuss. He really will pay it back sooner or later!
The three little monks only realized today that the things at the foot of the mountain are so delicious!
What should they do if they suddenly want to go down the mountain?
After all, the four of them got along quite harmoniously.
Xiao Jingkong described his life at the foot of the mountain to several people. When he learned that he was taking in his brother-in-law every day, the little monk Jingfan asked: "Who is your brother-in-law? Is your father?"
They are still young, but they don’t look like Xiao Jingkong, so they don’t understand what their brother-in-law means, but the male owner in the family seems to be his father.
Xiao Jingkong sighed: "You're a temporary father, Jiaojiao may have changed him at any time."
Xiao Jingkong called Jiaojiao in his mouth, and thought that Gu Jiao was his mother in his heart, but he couldn't guarantee whether Xiao Liulang was his father.
After all, according to his observation for so many days, this father has not yet officially taken office and is at risk of being laid off at any time.
As the few people talked, they somehow talked about their respective homework.
Little Monk Jingfan: "We have memorized a lot of Buddhist scriptures during the period when you went down the mountain! You haven't recited them!"
Jingxin agreed: "That's it!"
Jingshan nodded!
Xiao Jingkong raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What have you all carved?"
Little monk Jingfan: "The Heart Sutra of Prajna Paramita!"
Xiao Jingkong spread his hands: "I was cared for me as soon as I was two years old."
The little monk Jingxin: "The Buddha's Sutra on the Original Vow of Medicine Buddha!"
Xiao Jingkong shrugged: "I have been memorized in two years and three months."
The little monk Jingshan: "Ling, "Ling Yan Sutra"!"
Xiao Jingkong took out his little ear and sighed helplessly: "It's the "Lingyun Sutra", a fool. The name is wrong. Do you really recite it?"
Several young monks turned red.
Did they really memorize it? They just remembered the names. They remembered these difficult names for several days, and they were so tired that they were so tired!
"Oh, it's meaningless to talk to you. I'll go find the abbot." Xiao Jingkong jumped down from the steps and walked with his short legs to find the abbot.
The abbot of the presidency had just sat down in the sutra hall and was about to preach to the monks, but suddenly, a little novice monk hurried over: "The abbot is not good, Jingkong is here to find you! He wants to talk about sutras and treatises to you!"
The abbot of the host shook his body, and the Buddhist beads in his hand were scared away.
Then, that little slut is coming to him to discuss Zen?
It's a life!!!
Xiao Jingkong has been studying Buddhist scriptures since he was a child and is full of curiosity about everything about Buddhist scriptures. The abbot said one thing, he could ask ten questions, but in the end he could never answer the abbot!
"'All appearances are false'. If there is a look, they are false. Is the abbot also false? Since the abbot is false, what the abbot said to me is false! In this way, I cannot believe in the abbot! If I cannot believe in the abbot, I cannot believe in the Buddhist scriptures spoken by the abbot and I! The Buddhist scriptures are also false!"
Abbot: Although you are unreasonable, I actually think there is a little reason...
The abbot came back to his senses with his super high professional qualities and explained patiently to him.
After hearing this, he said, "I think what you said is wrong!"
Abbot: "Why is it wrong? You are too young and don't understand!"
Xiao Jingkong: "The Buddha is so smart, he must have a way to let me understand. It's because you didn't convey his meaning well. This is not my problem, it is the abbot's problem!"
There are countless conversations like this. Often, the abbot did not convince him. Instead, he used his logic to perfectly lead the monks who entered the temple.
The fear of being dominated by Xiao Jingkong surged into his heart, and the abbot was in a bad mood.
When Gu Jiao finally came to pick up Xiao Jingkong, Xiao Jingkong had already successfully asked the monks in the scripture hall with his own strength, so that black smoke came out of his head!
"Abbot, I'm leaving. We'll discuss this issue next time!" Xiao Jingkong was held by Gu Jiao with one hand. He turned his head and waved his other hand at the abbot.
The abbot who wished he could pass away on the spot was ashamed: Please, don't come here, okay...
The siblings went down the mountain hand in hand.
Xiao Jingkong was ready to move and wanted to spread his feet and run down.
However, it had just rained and the road was slippery. Gu Jiao was worried that he would roll down like a little winter melon and never dared to let go.
"Did you have fun today?" Gu Jiao asked suddenly.
"Happy!" Xiao Jingkong said cutely, raised his little hands and counted, "Today I saw Jingxin, Jingfan, Jingshan, Senior Brother Jingchen and the abbot..."
He said a lot, and basically he counted everything he saw in the temple.
"Didn't you see your master?" Gu Jiao asked.
Xiao Jingkong sighed: "He is elusive and rarely stays on the mountain."
Old man?
Gu Jiao thought of the strange monk in the forest. That monk was very young, so it shouldn't be the old man in Xiao Jingkong's mouth?
What Gu Jiao didn't know was that the old man was just a title given by Xiao Jingkongbi to his age. His master was actually not very old, and he was more than 20 years younger than the abbot!
Gu Jiao said again: "Then... are there any very good monks in the temple? The best ones."
