Thunder God looked up at the sky and saw that it had been too long since he had been down to earth, so he and Lightning Mother said goodbye to everyone and returned to heaven. It was a rare occasion for Mr. Long Wu to meet Fairy Cuckoo, so he took the opportunity to say goodbye and go to their sweet world. The elder also said goodbye to Zhang Shaofei and rode the little donkey down the mountain.
Zhang Shaofei watched the elders pass a mountain col, looked at the monks such as Huaicai and Fawu in front of him, and said sheepishly: "Everyone, please leave. As the saying goes, 'We meet in mountains and rivers.' If we are destined, we will meet each other no matter where we are." We met."
Huaicai and Fawu reluctantly begged Zhang Shaofei to take them in and serve them around.
"This... let's do it. Huai Cai and Dharma Enlightenment. It's rare for you to travel thousands of miles to the mountains to seek Buddhist teachings. You two will go to Tianlu Temple first to register. The presiding officer Rude is also an accomplished monk. Climb up the mountain in front. Tianlu Temple." Zhang Shaofei saw that the opportunity had not come yet, and besides, he was still living in Lejia, which was inconvenient, so he pointed out a way for them.
After Le Zhidan saw Huaicai and Fawu reluctantly leaving, her phoenix eyes kept looking around. She was surprised to find that Zhang Shaofei was sorting out the cassock.
Zhang Shaofei wrapped the cassock, and Le Zhidan, who had been quietly observing, asked curiously: "Brother A Fei, are we going home?"
The reluctant pleas of Huaicai and Fawu inspired him to find a place with quiet mountains and rivers to build a temple.
After Le Zhidan knew Zhang Shaofei's thoughts, he muttered "Yes, but..."
Le Zhidan stopped talking. Zhang Shaofei asked: "Are there any problems that are difficult to solve?"
Le Zhidan said: "Almost every mountain and every piece of land in the entire Tianlu Mountain is blessed by a wealthy man. He is extremely shrewd and has never given away a penny. I'm afraid..."
Zhang Shaofei said with a smile: "How could he have accumulated such a large fortune if he was not smart and stingy? Don't even think about asking for alms from such a person. He doesn't even know how to give away a grain of rice. How can he give up a large piece of land? Let's first Go meet this person who wishes you wealth and spend money to buy his mountain farm."
Le Zhidan hesitated: "But...where do we get so much money?"
Zhang Shaofei said: "It's hard to buy people what they want." Let's go.
Le Zhidan took Zhang Shaofei along the mountain road to Zhu Fugui's house.
On the road, Le Zhidan was jumping up and down. She was sniffing wild flowers and chasing butterflies. She was extremely happy. Even Zhang Shaofei was infected by her innocence and looked much younger.
Le Zhidan blew away a dandelion seed, and the seeds carried small umbrellas and floated in the wind. Seeing this, Zhang Shaofei couldn't help but chant a verse from the Fourth Patriarch Daoxin:
Flower seeds have vitality, and they can grow if they get the ground. If the causes and conditions are not consistent, nothing will happen.
Le Zhidan said: "Brother A Fei, what you are reciting is the gatha of your great master and fourth ancestor, right?"
Zhang Shaofei nodded and praised: "Little Zhidan is not only playful now, but also knows how to work hard!"
"Brother A Fei, you are in such good spirits today, you will definitely take me on a mountain tour."
Zhang Shaofei said seriously: "Who said it was a sightseeing tour? We are going to beg for alms."
Le Zhidan said angrily: "Do you need Master Zhang for alms?"
Zhang Shaofei laughed and said, "We have a great affinity today, and I, Master Zhang, have to come forward."
Le Zhidan asked excitedly: "How big is the fate?"
"The entire Tianlu Mountain. We have to ask Zhu Fugui to donate all the mountains, rivers, trees, land and buildings in Tianlu Mountain to the temple we built."
Le Zhidan suddenly covered his stomach and screamed, as if his stomach hurt.
Zhang Shaofei ignored him and walked forward.
Le Zhidan squatted on the ground and shouted: "Master Zhang, Master Zhang!"
Zhang Shaofei kept kicking and without looking back, said: "Le Zhidan, do you want to say, 'Master Zhang, I have a stomachache. I have to go back first. You can go and beg for alms yourself!'"
Seeing that his secret was revealed, Le Zhidan stopped pretending to be stupid and asked, "Master Zhang, how did you know?"
"You, you, how have you ever deceived me in these years?"
Le Zhidan pushed up his sleeves, spitted on his hands, and said, "Master Zhang, should we go with Village Chief Wang and the others?"
"What are you doing? We are going to beg for alms, not to quarrel."
"But, but... Zhu Fugui, the rich man, is the most hateful. He often lets vicious dogs bite the beggars who come to his house to beg for food. When monks go to beg for alms, he doesn't even give alms, and doesn't even give them a good face. It's true. He's an iron rooster who doesn't pry his hair. We want to take away all his family property, but he won't fight for his life with us!"
Zhang Shaofei said with a smile: "It's so ugly to talk about robbing and snatching! Being a monk means asking people to give alms voluntarily."
Le Zhidan was puzzled: "Can he volunteer? In the past, Village Chief Wang made countless trips to buy his land. He almost wore out his good words, but he didn't agree. He wouldn't even sell it, so he didn't want to give it up. Give it away for free?”
"When I go to treat him, he has to give me some medical expenses, right?" Zhang Shaofei said jokingly.
Le Zhidan was excited: "Oh? Is Zhu Fugui sick? You deserve it! Brother A Fei, why didn't you say you were going to get treatment earlier, but you gave Le Zhidan a stomachache in vain."
Zhang Shaofei smiled mysteriously. While they were talking, Zhang Shaofei and Le Zhidan had already arrived at the gate of Zhu Fugui's house.
Since it was the daughter of the head of Lezhai who came forward in person, Zhu Fugui had no choice but to let them into the living room despite a hundred reluctances.
After the maid served tea, Zhu Fugui got straight to the point and said: "Miss Le came to the humble house in person, and she must have come here to buy land. To be honest, our Zhu family only has the habit of buying other people's land, and has never pawned a house. , Selling land and other wasteful things, so..."
Le Zhidan interrupted him unceremoniously and said, "Don't look down on others. I, Master Zhang, am here to treat you!"
Zhu Fugui laughed: "Haha... I'm sick? Miss Le, you don't have a high fever, do you?"
Le Zhidan scolded: "You just have a high fever!"
"You don't have a high fever, so why are you talking nonsense? I'm sick! Do you think I'm sick?"
Le Zhidan looked at Zhu Fugui. His face was red and full of vitality, and he did not look sick.
She looked at Zhang Shaofei in confusion.
Zhang Shaofei said with certainty: "Uncle Zhu, you are indeed ill, and the illness is extremely serious. It can be said that you are terminally ill. Looking at the world, I am the only one who can save you."
Zhu Fugui was unhappy: "Master Zhang, are you a disciple of Buddhism? But why are you lying? I don't know whether you are sick or not?"
Zhang Shaofei said solemnly: "There are some diseases that patients can feel themselves; there are also some diseases that are difficult for patients to detect until the end of their lives. But once they feel it, it's too late."
Zhu Fugui was doubtful: "Hey, tell me, what disease do I have?"
"Doctors diagnose diseases by looking, smelling, asking, and feeling. Before diagnosing the pulse, I don't dare to make a conclusion casually."
Zhu Fugui also heard that Zhang Shaofei, who was sent to Lejiazhai from the imperial court, had all kinds of incredible magical powers. Now that he saw him being serious, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
