Faming said: "It is precisely because you have such a misunderstanding of Buddhism that I should promote Buddhism to you even more."

"As for the issue of eating, now, Zhang Juzheng, the chief minister of the court, presided over government affairs. After Shenzong took office, he worked hard to govern, lived a frugal life, and had the style of a diligent and wise ruler."

"How could you be hungry?"

Nan Qingyi put down the tools in his hand, sat at the bow of the boat, and said to Faming: "My little master Faming, Buddhism always says that everyone believes in it, but we ordinary people are exhausted for three meals a day, so how can we have the energy to learn Buddhism?"

"Look!" Nan Qingyi pointed at many fishermen in the distance.

These fishermen are tanned in their skin, harried fishing, or farming on the shore.

Faming said: "But I have never worked hard and I can eat and wear warmth."

"Because you are a monk." Nan Qingyi said.

Faming smiled and said, "So, if you are inconvenient to eat enough to learn Buddhism?"

Nan Qingyi: "But what you eat is planted by people like us who are hard-working."

"The environment in which you preach Buddhism is also guarded by the frontier soldiers."

"If we farmers learn Buddhism and soldiers learn Buddhism, wouldn't we all go hungry?"

Nan Qingyi glanced at him for a few simple glances, but Faming couldn't speak.

Faming is the best among their Buddhist temples. He can calmly answer any questions when discussing Buddhism with others.

When I go to various places, I am also praised by people and countless people treat them as masters to ask questions.

But unexpectedly, the girl asked a simple question that was just a meal, but she couldn't answer it.

Nan Qingyi actually loved Faming quite a bit and said, "Mr. Faming, in fact, during this period, the people who came to you to learn Buddhism were all called by my father."

"He thinks that you are a master of Buddhism, but most villagers actually complain in their hearts that if you have time to listen to Buddhism, it is better to do more things."

Faming frowned slightly, sighed, and shook his head slightly: "It seems that you people here have no connection with me Buddha."

"I'll leave tomorrow."

Nan Qingyi hurriedly said, "I either drove you away, I just wanted to say, I have some, I like you, so why not stay and get married to me."

Nan Qingyi has great courage to take the initiative to say such words.

Faming's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly said, "How can this be possible? I am a Buddhist, how can I have the affection between men and women."

"It is said that before the Buddha became a Buddha, he also had wives, sons and children?" Nan Qingyi said.

"Where did you hear about it?" Faming said.

Nan Qingyi pointed at him: "You have talked about Buddhism before and talked about the Buddha."

"Nothing!" Faming decided to leave.

His ambition is to travel all over the world and promote Buddhism.

Since the people here have no Buddhist connection, they will definitely not be able to stay.

The next day, Faming packed his bags and left.

When he left the village and walked to a small road, he found Nan Qingyi sitting on a stone by the road, as if waiting for him.

Nan Qingyi stood up at this time, looking at Faming's eyes with reluctance.

Faming is a smart person, so how could he not know that Nan Qingyi likes him?

Nan Qingyi is definitely a beautiful and generous girl. After several days of contact, Faming naturally has a good impression of him.

But he suppressed this favorable feeling.

He is a Buddhist practitioner, how can he move his seven emotions and six desires?

Nan Qingyi and Faming looked at each other for a long time before she asked, "Master Faming, when will you come back now?"

She knew that Faming was the one who decided to preach Buddhism, and it was impossible to force him to keep him.

Faming clasped his hands together and said, "When the people from Jiangyan Village believe in Buddhism and have the fate of Buddha, I will come again."

Hearing this, Nan Qingyi smiled and said, "Then I'll wait for you to come back."

Faming looked at her smile and his mind was shaken.

He hurriedly clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name.

He thought to himself, indeed, the seven emotions and six desires in the world are all tests to become a Buddha.

Afterwards, Faming left Jiangyan Village.

After Faming left Jiangyan Village, he traveled through mountains and rivers, but his reputation became increasingly greater.

As for Jiangyan Village and Nan Qingyi, he forgot about it.

He forgot that there was a remote village, and there was a girl looking forward to him going back again.

That's it, many years have passed.

Dharma Ming has become the abbot, and the Buddhist teachings he preaches are spread all over the world.

One day, he suddenly remembered that about fifty years ago, he had been to a place where people did not believe in Buddhism.

Faming thought that his Buddhism was not enough, and it was difficult for the people there to believe in Buddhism.

Nowadays, my own Buddhist practice will definitely make people in the village believe in Buddhism.

Thinking of this, he took his disciples to set off overnight and headed to Jiangyan Village.

On the day back to Jiangyan Village, Jiangyan Village took many disciples to the village.

Decades have passed, and Faming was quite moved when he looked at the village. He also remembered the girl named Nan Qingyi back then.

I don't know how she is now.

Thinking of this, Faming led his disciples into the village.

There are not many acquaintances in the village.

Faming just wandered around like this.

Suddenly, he saw that there was a Buddha temple in the center of the village, and many of the villagers were entering the Buddha temple to burn incense.

A man in his thirties walked out of the Buddhist temple.

Faming stopped him and asked, "This donor, is this Buddha temple?"

The man smiled and said, "What are the instructions of the master?"

Faming said: "I came here a few decades ago, but I didn't see this Buddhist temple, I don't know."

"This was built by Grandma Nan Qingyi." The man said: "Fifty years ago, Grandma Nan Qingyi built this temple, and then sat inside and recited scriptures every day."

"Apart from chanting scriptures, she likes to sit here." The man said, pointing to a stone pier at the entrance of the Buddha Temple: "Grandma Nan Qingyi always sits here and looks towards the entrance of the village."

"According to the older generation in the village, she is waiting for someone here."

"It's a pity that I've been waiting for fifty years but I haven't been able to wait for him."

Faming was shocked all over, and he looked at the Buddha temple in disbelief.

He suddenly remembered what he said to the girl fifty years ago: "I will come again after the people in Jiangyan Village believe in Buddhism and have the fate of Buddha."

Nanqingyi built a Buddhist temple to promote Buddhism.

Just to wait for yourself?

Thinking of this, Faming hurriedly asked, "Where is the man in Nan Qing?"

"Last year, Grandma Nan Qingyi had passed away." The man said: "It's a pity that before she passed away, she always believed that the people she was waiting for would come back. It's a pity, alas."

Farming suddenly felt like a thunder strike.

Because of one word, Nan Qingyi made him wait for fifty years.

Because of my own words, Nan Qingyi was willing to wait for him for fifty years.

Faming looked at the Buddhist temple and said in a choked voice: "I, I'm back."
