Vol 9 Chapter 178: Hannyaji Temple

The door squeaked open, and an old monk was standing in the door. The old monk looked like he was more than sixty years old. He was wearing a washed white monk robe, a beard, a bald head and his hands. There was a Sawba in his hand. He opened a pair of muddy eyes and glanced at Zhao Hai who was standing outside the door. Then he hurriedly said in an eleventh ceremony: "Junior Brother, please, what's the matter, please?"
Zhao Hai hurriedly replied: "Brother invited, little monk Zhiming, I want to come to the temple to place an order, don’t know if it’s okay?"
When the old monk heard what Zhao Hai said, he hurriedly said: "Yes, of course, you don’t have to be polite, you call me Huixing, please." After Haidao thanked him, he entered the temple.
Zhao Hai has already seen that this Hui Xing is not a monk. The reason why he is so affirmed is because he discovered that Hui Xing has been so old, but he can only practice on the second level of Qi Realm. This is clear. Not a monk.
This Prajna Temple is only a small temple, and the whole temple is no more than a big hall with two penthouses. Na Huixing led Zhao Hai to a penthouse first, and then opened the door. It was a clean one that was cleaned. In the room, there is only a wooden bed with a thin quilt on the bed. There is nothing else, and it looks very shabby.
Na Huixing said to Zhao Hai: "Senior brother, the conditions in the temple are simple, please don't dislike it."
Zhao Hai quickly said: "Brother is polite, this is already very good, thank you, brother." Hui Xinghe gave a salute and made a low voice of the Buddha's horn, and Zhao Hai also entered the room, and then put the convenient shovel on the bed. Then he came to Huixing and said to Huixing: "Brother, please." Na Huixing answered, and then led Zhao Hai to the hall. After reaching the hall, Zhao Hai charged the Buddha and recited the sutras with Huixing. The two went out to chat outside the hall.
Zhao Hai glanced at the small temple, and he found that the small temple was also a bit dilapidated. Although Hui Xing often cleaned it, it seemed that he was old after all, and there should be no incense in this small temple, so Hui Xing My life is not very good, so it seems a bit run-down.
Zhao Hai turned his head to Huixing and said, "Brother, are you alone in this temple?" Zhao Hai is really curious. It seems that there is only this Huixing in this temple. This doesn't happen in ordinary temples. In this case, this made Zhao Hai a little surprised.
Na Huixing nodded and said, "Yes, I am the only one in the temple now. There were a few brothers and sisters before, but then they either left or sat down, and now only one of me is saved in the temple. If I die later, there will be no one in this temple."
Zhao Hai has also traveled to some places these days, and he has some understanding of the things here in the God Realm. In the God Realm, there are not many ordinary people who are monks. Ordinary people generally get married and establish a business and inherit their ancestry. , Very few people become monks. Although there are many temples in the God Realm, many temples are actually controlled by monks.
Those big temples are generally branches of the big sects, and those small temples are generally all controlled by casual practitioners. Although they can't establish sects, they can still be a presiding officer in a small temple. He can. I teach a few disciples and invite a few ordinary people so that they can receive some pilgrims in this temple. In addition, there are casual monks who come to place orders from time to time, and they can also have some income. Therefore, these small temples can really be There are not many things that ordinary people control.
And like this Prajna temple, there is only a small temple guarded by ordinary people. It is really rare in the gods, because there are many temples that were originally controlled by ordinary people, even those established by ordinary monks. , But because they do not have the strength to guard, these temples will often fall into the hands of casual practitioners. It can be said that as long as some temples are well located and can have some income, almost all of them will be like this, and the reason why this Prajna temple It's okay, probably because the location here is not good, and there is no income, so this has been guarded by this Hui Xing, and has not been snatched by the casual repair.
Zhao Hai whispered the Buddha's horn, and then said: "The brother can always stay here, showing that his wisdom is firm, and the little monk admires him."
Hui Xing Hui Xing smiled bitterly and said: "Hui Xing also regrets it, but now Hui Xing has nowhere else to go, so he stayed. But Hui Xing recently felt that his time limit was approaching, and I was afraid that he would soon die. At that time, this temple will really become a wild temple."
Zhao Hai was taken aback, and then he took a look at Huixing and found that Huixing had indeed reached the point where the oil was exhausted and the lamp was dry. He couldn't help but sighed slightly. He didn't mean to save Huixing, Huixing. At this time, he turned his head and glanced at Zhao Hai, and then said, "Junior, but I don’t know where you are going? If you don’t want to leave, how about staying? Huixing can write down the teachings of the younger brother on the monastery’s roster. No. When Hui Xing sits and turns, brother, you are the abbot of this temple. Although there is nothing in this small temple, there is still 500 acres of land outside the temple. It is for the temple. Now there are some good men. Helping to cultivate, it can be regarded as some harvest."
Zhao Hai was really stunned at this moment. He really didn't expect that when he met this Huixing, this Huixing was going to give him the temple, but he would understand after thinking about it. , Hui Xing was really going to die, and originally no one would come here. This time Zhao Hai happened to bump into him. This Hui Xing was just the last bit of effort he had made.
When he thought of this, Zhao Hai looked at the Xiyi expression in Huixing's eyes. When he refused, he suddenly couldn't say it. After a while, Zhao Hai sighed lightly and said: "Monk Amitabha, the little monk promised to do that. "
When this Hui Xing heard Zhao Hai say this, he couldn't help being overjoyed. He quickly said: "Okay, great, please come with me, Junior Brother, I will add your name to the golden book in the temple now." He stood up, took Zhao Hai, and walked into his room.
When his eyes came to Huixing’s room, Zhao Hai discovered that Huixing’s room was actually very simple. It was nothing more than a bed against the wall and a small bookcase in the middle of the house. , There is a futon behind the small book case, and on the wall next to the book case, there is a small bookshelf. There are not a few books on the bookshelf. On a grid of the bookshelf, there is a wooden one. The box, but that box looks simple and natural, it seems that it has been used for some years.
Hui walked over, took the box down, placed it on the small book case, and then opened the box. Inside the box was a booklet. These booklets were all nailed with a kind of yellow paper. Huixing took out from the inside. There are five booklets in total. The top ones are very old, and only the bottom one looks newer.
Hui Xing took out the new booklet, then opened it carefully, and finally he said: "This booklet has been around since the temple was built. It contains all the monks in our temple. Just record your name. Go up, you are considered to be a person in the temple." After speaking, he opened the booklet and turned it all the way to the back, then took the pen and wrote the words Zhiming on the booklet.
After he finished writing, he showed Zhao Hai the pamphlet. Zhao Hai also saw the word Huixing and some other dharma titles. It seemed that what Huixing said was all true. The name is added to the booklet, and he is indeed a man in the temple.
Hui Xing then put away the booklet again, put it in the box again, and then said: "If one day I pass away, you can take this box away. If there is a newcomer in the temple in the future, remember to put it The name is also written on it." Zhao Hai quickly responded.
Hui Xing then nodded at Zhao Hai, then pointed to the bookshelf, and said to Zhao Hai: "The books on this bookshelf are collected in the monastery over the years. Some of them were copied from other monasteries. Buddhist scriptures, and this." After saying that Huixing took out a box from the bottom of the bookshelf, and said to Zhao Hai: "This box contains the deeds of the house and land, and the income from the temple over the years." After he opened the box, there were scattered pieces of gold and silver in the box, as well as some copper coins, which didn't seem to be much. As for the spirit stone, Zhao Hai only saw one piece. Under these things, there are two pieces of paper.
Hui Xing took out the things one by one, and carefully confessed to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai looked at Hui Xing and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He already knew that Hui Xing was indeed about to be unable to hold on, maybe he also had a hunch. , That's why he told Zhao Hai all these things directly. He is a dying person, what else is there to be afraid of, afraid that Zhao Hai will lie to him? Are you still afraid that Zhao Hai will kill him to occupy Prajna Temple? Regardless of the situation, he is nothing more than a death, he is about to die, and there will still care about this.
After the confession, Huixing handed the box to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai was taken aback for a moment, and then he waved his hand quickly and said, "No, it's better to put it here." Now Huixing is still alive. Well, he just took these things, it was really very inappropriate, that's why Zhao Hai said so.
Hui Xing glanced at Zhao Hai and smiled slightly: "I can feel it, I'm going to die soon. Sooner or later, these things will be handed over to you. You can keep them, and then go back and rest. Tomorrow morning, I will take you there. Seeing the good men who are planting the ground in the temple, tell them, even if I die in the future, they will hand over the rent to you."
Zhao Hai looked at Hui Xing's appearance, and finally took the box and bowed to Hui Xing. Then he left the room, then took the box and returned to his room. Zhao Hai really didn't know. Whatever you said, he just came to place an order for lodging, and there would have thought that it would turn out to be like this. He didn't think about it. He wanted to save Huixing or prolong his life, but it would turn him into death. The spirit family, but he still didn’t do it in the end. Huixing’s body really did not work anymore, and many people would know about his situation. If those people saw Huixing who was about to die but were still alive, they would doubt it. He, so he didn't do this. It wasn't that Zhao Hai was cruel. Although he was powerful, he never regarded himself as a god. Hui Xing was because he was old and naturally died of old age, so Zhao Hai never thought about saving him.
As soon as he returned to his room, Zhao Hai looked at the box in his hand, and finally sighed slightly, and put the box away. After he put the box away, he began to sit on the bed and mutter the scriptures in a low voice. In the middle of the night, he sighed lightly and stood up. Then he opened the door and walked out. He came to the outside of Huixing's room without knocking. He opened the door and walked in.
