C9 Go down the Mountain

Lee Fann found out after practicing for a few days. The book he got looked more like a guide to how to meditate in Buddhism. Although he had improved his spirit after practicing for a few days, he did not feel like he had been reborn. However, it was better than nothing. He spent every day in the temple, apart from sunbathing and meditating. Occasionally, he would walk out of the temple and see the mountain full of yellow leaves, but he was not in the mood to sightsee.

During this period of time, a few things happened that made Lee Fann feel that the temple was interesting. The first was that Lee Fann accidentally discovered that the monks in the temple were drinking, eating, and playing cards at night. He couldn't help but have a new view of the monks in the temple. According to what Wuchen said back then, the temple cultivated the heart. Not the body. For this reason, Lee Fann specifically asked Wuchen if he had a wife and daughter. Wuchen just said "Amitabha. But after this incident. When the monks had the chance to drink and eat meat, they also called Lee Fann over. The second thing was that Lee Fann found out that the monks here were all wine barrels. Seven or eight monks, including him, drank more than ten kilograms of white wine and beer at the same time. He was actually drunk by a group of monks. If Fatty knew about this, he would probably rush to become a monk.

The third thing was that Wuchen accidentally told him about the origin of the temple after drinking. So it turned out that... The temple had originally been established during the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. Its original name was Feng Yin Temple. The Tang Dynasty was the first prosperous dynasty to appear in China after the Great Qin Empire was destroyed. There were countless strange people and strange things. In particular, the famous Master Xuanzang had been personally sent by Li Shiming to search for the origin of the Buddhist Dharma. After Master of Xuanzang returned to Tang, the Buddhist Dharma became even more widespread. At that time, there were countless people who believed in Buddhism in China. After Tang Taizong's death, The generations of the Tang Dynasty all feared the impact of Buddhism on the royal family. They openly supported the promotion of Buddhism, but in the dark, they greatly obstructed it. This aroused a great amount of anger. As the monastery was located in a remote area, The road up the hill was difficult. Many monks came here to hide. Until the Yellow Nest uprising in the year 907. The world was in chaos. The people did not have a good life. Feng Yin Temple was also a place of refuge for many refugees and people who had lost their homes.

As Fengyin Temple was located in a remote area, it had no strategic significance. That was why it was preserved in the flames of war. After the fifth generation of the Ten Kingdoms rebelled, the monks of the Fengyin Temple also came out to join the army. They made a great contribution to China. Until Great Ancestor Song, Zhao Kuangyin, and Chen Qiao's mutiny. He established Great Song. At that time, Zhao Kuang Yin had an eminent monk from the Secluded Peak Temple working for him. After the resurgence of dynasties, every time the Secluded Peak Temple was in chaos, there would be monks coming down the mountain. All the way until modern times. The world was peaceful. Feng Yin Temple no longer had its former glory. However, there would be people offering incense and worshipping Buddha at fixed times every year.

After Lee Fann finished listening to Wuchen, he concluded that there were two points. Firstly, this temple was very impressive. Secondly, this temple was very miserable now. Although Lee Fann was not very clear about it, Until every time the world was in chaos, the Fengyin Temple would appear. However, he vaguely felt that the Fengyin Temple was related to the family that protected the world Chen Xi mentioned.

The days passed by slowly as they drank and meditated every day. In the blink of an eye, it was time for Lee Fann to go down the mountain. However, Lee Fann found that he could not find Huineng, who was holding his contract to sell himself. Lee Fann decided to ignore the contract and sneak away.

"Lil 'Fan, the host has something to do down the mountain. He told me not to stop you from leaving. " But you need to pass our Dharma examinations. " Wuchen held Lee Fann's agreement in his hand. Behind him, seven or eight monks stopped Lee Fann at the entrance of the temple.

Damn you, Lee Fann cursed in his heart. He was the gatekeeper of Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion every day. How could he have the time to learn some Buddhist Dharma? However, he looked at the monks behind Wuchen and asked with a smile, "Master Wuchen, I'm basking in the sun in Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion every day. I don't want to learn the Buddhist Dharma, and I don't want to learn it either. I think I'll pass the exam."

Wuchen stared at Lee Fann with a smile, which made Lee Fann's hair stand on end. "Lil 'Fan, the host knew about it a long time ago. So, as long as you can read everything that you have read in Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion these past few days. The abbot felt that it was fine, so you can go down the mountain.

What? Do you mean you want me to wait a few more days until that old man comes back?" Lee Fann was furious. He almost said the word 'old bald monk'. He quickly changed the way he addressed Lee Fann.

Wuchen smiled. He raised his kasaya as if he wanted to pee. Under Lee Fann's gaze, he did not take out anything under his crotch. Instead, he took out a phone like a magic trick. "Could it be that Lil Fan has stayed on the mountain for a long time and doesn't even know his phone?" Wuchen looked at Lee Fann's stunned expression and laughed.

"Didn't you say that the video was over? I didn't think that you guys would go online besides drinking and eating meat." Lee Fann sighed with emotion. As expected of a monk who had crossed paths with the times.

After Wuchen and Huineng connected the video call, Lee Fann was invited into a separate room. Lee Fann could not help but ask when he saw Huineng's bald head, "Master, did you go down the mountain to have fun?"

Huineng's bald head shook in front of the screen. "Haha, it seems that Lil Fan still misses This Penniless Monk. Could it be that you don't want to go down the mountain?"

Lee Fann hurriedly waved his hand and hurriedly said," No, no, Master. Let's hurry up and start the exam. "

Huineng nodded slightly and put on a formal expression. "In that case, Lil Fan, tell us about your learning experience in Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion these days."

Lee Fann took a deep breath and took out the strength to brag in his dormitory. He began to brag endlessly.

"Lil 'Fan, stop!" Huineng stopped Lee Fann after listening to the video for a while. "This poor monk doesn't want to hear this."

"It's not that." Lee Fann was a little confused. "Master, I don't read any Buddhist books other than that. " Don't tell me you want me to recite some Buddhist scriptures? "

Huineng touched his bald head on the other side of the video and smiled meaningfully. "Why didn't you tell me the contents of the book you found under the shelves of Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion?"

"How did you know?" Lee Fann was shocked.

"The Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion is the most important place in the temple. Why didn't we take precautions?" Huineng couldn't help but feel proud of himself.

The sun had risen. So you guys still have cameras? Lee Fann thought gloomily, "I saw that book was ruined. Nothing special about it. It's nothing more than a book that teaches people to meditate and meditate."

Hearing this sentence, Huineng looked a little angry when he heard this." Nothing special. That book was left from the temple. The entire Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion is not as important as him. How dare you look down on it so much?"

"Alright, alright. It's the most important." Lee Fann saw that Huineng was about to explode and quickly changed his words. He did not want to stay here anymore. "Do you think I can leave as soon as I memorize the things in the book?"

Seeing Huineng nod his head, Lee Fann slowly memorized it. Although he loved reading books and sleeping, he had read this stupid book almost a hundred times. It had been engraved in his mind long ago.

When he heard Lee Fann memorize the complete book without missing a single word, Huineng nodded with a smile. "Not bad, not a single word is missing. It seems like he really has an affinity with Buddha. "

Lee Fann almost fell down when he heard that. It was fate that a student like him could recite a book. If he found a genius, he wouldn't be the reincarnation of Buddha. Just as he was about to open his mouth and ask. Huineng said in advance, "It seems like you didn't stay here for two months for nothing. Alright. You can go down the mountain now." After Huineng finished speaking, the screen in front of Lee Fann turned dark. Huineng had cut off the video.

The mysterious old bald donkey, Lee Fann said. Finally, they could leave.

After receiving his final salary from Wuchen, Lee Fann quickly turned around and ran out of the temple. He didn't pay any attention to Wuchen's shouts.

Leaving the temple gate far away, Lee Fann turned his head and looked back. He saw Wuchen still looking at him at the entrance of the temple.

"I will never come here again." Lee Fann shouted. "Goodbye, old bald donkeys!"
