The old monk's footsteps were getting closer and closer, his steps were slow and unhurried. The tattered cassock wrapped around his body was shiny and shiny, as if it had never been washed!
His eyebrows and beard were already gray, swaying in the wind on the way, and coupled with a big bald head, he looked a little funny!
The old monk was getting closer and closer to me. As he got closer, I could clearly see that his face was full of smiles, and he looked... actually a little wretched!
The old monk walked up to me step by step, bowed to the ground, and then said with a smile: "Little donor, have we met again?"
again?
He actually told me again and again, and at this moment, I suddenly understood!
And at this moment, I was completely sure that the dream last night was caused by this old monk!
I responded with a smile: "Master, it seems that you intend to guide me!"
The old monk smiled wretchedly, without the airs of an enlightened monk at all, and said: "Little donor, don't you have such a mentality? Do you think falling into a dream is easy? I'm very tired. The dreaming last night made me white again. A few beards, look at them if you don’t believe me!”
As he said that, he stretched his chin towards him without any shame.
I repeatedly excused myself and said directly: "Tell me, who are you? How do you know my name? What is the purpose of coming here? You go to all the trouble to enter my dream. I don't believe it's just for fun, right?"
My soul asked. The origin of this old monk was so mysterious that I had to be careful.
The old monk nodded, frowned and shook his head, obviously thinking that I had too many questions. Then he looked at the moat beside him, bowed and said, "Of course, I am here to help the little donor!"
"As for my name? The abbot of Lao Na's Xuankong Temple has lost his Buddhist name!"
Empty?
Hanging Temple?
I had never heard of this temple. Obviously, this temple is not famous.
I really didn’t want to have a good impression of this monk, but out of politeness, I still raised my hands to him and said, "Master... Master? Right?"
When the old monk heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Yes, the little donor is very good! Your name is Lin Jiu, right? Is it the same as I guessed?"
"How did the master know my name?" I asked with doubts.
The monk pretended to be mysterious and said: "The name is just a code name, it is not important. Don't pay too much attention to such an unimportant thing, as it will make life very tiring!"
I also smiled and shook my head. It seemed that the old monk had installed it!
I don't worry too much about this kind of thing. It's not difficult to know my name!
"Master Liokong, you just said that you are here to help me, what's going on?" I didn't dwell on this matter, but asked directly.
The old monk immediately replied: "There is a good fortune here. I came here specially to give it to the little donor! Aren't you curious about what is in this moat?"
good fortune?
I suddenly remembered the last words the old monk said to me in my dream yesterday.
"The moat outside Tai'an City, the fate of the river is not up to me!"
Is this the creation he was talking about?
"What kind of fate is it?" I said directly without thinking.
The old monk waved his hand and said: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, everything has its own rules, it can't be said, it can't be said! All the good fortune is in this moat!"
In the moat?
Only then did I realize it and hurriedly asked: "Master, do you know what kind of thing in the moat is using the wind and waves to kidnap people?"
The old monk nodded, but there were a lot of unintelligible words: "Yes, I do know, but I believe that everything has its origin and cause, and the cause and effect in this moat can be traced back five hundred years. Years ago!”
I almost jumped in fear. This old monk was talking like this outside. Hasn't he been beaten before?
Chen Yaojie on the side was even more impatient. He pointed directly at the old monk and said: "Hey, great monk, stop making excuses. If you want to know, just tell us quickly. Let us worry here. If you know what's hidden, Help our police solve the case and the police will be grateful to you!"
The old monk rolled his eyes at Chen Yaojie angrily, and then said: "Young man, keep your composure. You can also ask me to help you. This is also the purpose of my visit this time. But with so many of you around, I But it’s a bit difficult to handle! After all, some things you see are not good things!!”
This is very clear. There are too many people and it is difficult to handle.
Chen Yaojie also immediately understood the meaning. Anyway, there is nothing to do now. I believe that this old monk will not suffer any loss anyway.
Then Chen Yaojie immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said: "Everyone evacuate the scene and evacuate all the onlookers, quickly!"
Once the order was issued, police officers from all directions began to take action!
In just a few minutes, there was no one anywhere as far as the eye could see.
Of course, if you look carefully, you can also find that far away, some police officers are observing this place with cameras and binoculars!
Seeing that the evacuation was almost done, Chen Yaojie said to the old monk in a deep voice: "Master, do you think it's okay now?"
The old monk looked at me with a smile and said, "You don't need to ask me about this. You have to ask our little benefactor Lin Jiu!"
Ask me, ask me for what? I immediately looked at the old monk with a puzzled look.
Immediately, before I could ask any questions, the old monk gave me a weird smile just like he did in his dream last night, then pushed me away and shouted: "Little donor, I am doing you a big favor!"
After he finished speaking, I saw his hands forming mudra quickly, but the mudra he formed was completely different from our Taoist mudra!
Following several low mantras, he recited in his mouth: "Om Shawani Wana is better than Pini hum bah!"
"Mantra of Obstacle-Removing Bodhisattva!"
After the sound ended, a "swastika" shaped light pattern slowly appeared in his hand!
Then, I saw him showing me his white teeth and saying, "Little donor, are you ready?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed the light pattern in his hand into the moat, and then... he retreated straight away...
