Chapter 103 The little monk wants to hold a Buddha bathing meeting
Fang Zheng didn't care what the other party was thinking. Blocking the other party's mobile phone number was the real thing. He was a monk, so what kind of car did he drive? If there were planes, he might consider it.
The next two days passed peacefully. After three days, Fang Zheng could indeed see things, and these things became particularly clear in his eyes! It felt like a black and white TV was suddenly replaced by
It feels like a 4K high-definition TV, and it feels great!
Time passed very quickly, perhaps because of the calligraphy competition, or because several couples came to the mountain to seek children, and their dreams came true. The reputation of Yizhi Temple began to spread.
In short, people started to come to the small, square temple one after another! Although it was winter, the weather was cold, the snow was heavy, and the mountain road was difficult to walk, so the people who came were all nearby villagers, but Wang Tian was still very happy.
Cleaning the temple every day, watching the occasional pilgrims, chatting a few words, burning incense and making wishes.
Fang Zheng would watch the other party leave very happily every time, then close the door and look around the futon to see if there was anything left behind...
However, most founders come back disappointed, with no money! Not even a dime!
Moreover, none of the high-grade incense sticks came out. They were basically ordinary incense sticks. Regarding this, Fang Zheng could only shake his head slightly. But he couldn't force people not to burn high-grade incense, right? So besides shaking his head, he couldn't
What can be done?
A month passed like this, and the number of incense sticks reached 20 for the first time. Fang Zheng looked at the number of these incense sticks and smiled crookedly! This was the harvest of Yi Zhi Temple in that year! Now it is done in one month, one hundred
Zhuxiang's task, he found, was not that difficult.
I walk the dog and play with the squirrels every day, and my life is quite relaxed.
December, the village likes to call it the twelfth month.
In the twelfth lunar month, the incense in Fangzheng Temple became even more intense, with people coming almost every day! Fangzheng also felt like the abbot for the first time. He stopped at the door every day and was greeted by everyone. How refreshing it was.
have to?
At this moment, Yang Hua came up the mountain. When he saw Fang Zheng, he laughed loudly and said, "Fang... Abbot! Uh, that's what he's called, right?"
Fang Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Donor Yang, you can call me whatever you want. Why is it so awkward to hear you call me abbot."
Yang Hua chuckled and said: "Well, your aunt is not pregnant for more than three months, so she can't come up to the mountain. No, let me ask you. It's already Laba. The Hongyan Temple next door has already announced
, this year the Laba Buddha Bathing Ceremony will be held, and Laba porridge will be served widely. Can you do it in this finger temple? If you can, your aunt is afraid that you don’t have enough manpower, so she asked me to give you a hand."
When Fang Zheng heard this, he was immediately stunned!
Laba? Buddha Bathing Party?
Then it dawned on me that I had almost forgotten this incident just by looking at the incense these days!
The so-called Buddha Bathing Party is a grand event in Buddhism, usually held on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. This day is called Laba Festival among the people, and it is called Sakyamuni Enlightenment Day in Buddhism, which is the Enlightenment Day of Sakyamuni or the Buddha’s Enlightenment Day.
, you can tell the meaning by looking at the name. This day is the day when the Buddha Sakyamuni practiced cultivation under the Bodhi tree and became a Buddha. So Buddhists all over the world celebrate it on the same day!
As an indispensable part of the Buddha's Enlightenment Day, in addition to bathing the Buddha, everyone in the world is invited to eat Laba porridge. Folks call it Laba porridge, but Buddhists call it Qibao and Five-flavor porridge.
Later, Buddhism influenced the secular world, and the custom of drinking Laba porridge during the Laba Festival came into being.
However, Yi Zhi Temple is a small temple. In the past, my family had to struggle to eat, so naturally I could not hold a Buddha bathing party. For so many years, the old monk Yi Zhi has never held a Buddha bathing party. On the contrary, every day, he would mutter: "
It would be great if one day, Yizhi Temple could also hold a Buddha bathing party...ah..."
Thinking of the long sigh from the monk Yi Zheng, Fang Zheng said without thinking: "This year's Laba, the poor monks will not only give away Laba porridge, but also hold a Buddha Bathing Ceremony to cleanse the soul and purify themselves with the world!"
"What? Are you going to hold a Buddha bathing party? It seems like... you have never held one before, right?" Yang Hua stared at Wang Tian and asked.
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Of course the poor monk has never held one, but he has never eaten pork and seen pigs running away? There is nothing difficult about the Buddha Bathing Party."
"Fang...Fangzheng, Guangshi Laba porridge, do you know how much it costs?" Yang Hua asked.
When Fang Zheng heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded! He almost forgot that this meeting was not in vain. Guangshi Laba Porridge, if only three or two people came, forget it, but if he came, Fang Zheng estimated that this point of his
The family may not have enough money!
Just when Fang Zheng felt guilty...
"Ding! During the Buddhist festival, the system will give away all the materials. In addition, the secret formula and production method of the Buddhist Seven Treasures and Five Flavors Porridge will be given away. All the ingredients are selected from the foot of Lingshan Mountain and grown by the Buddha! So, you don’t have to worry about the ingredients of the Laba porridge. You should
What I worry about is whether someone will come one day."
When Fang Zheng heard this, he almost cried, and said in his heart: "System, that's interesting! When I return to secular life, I will reward you with a girl!"
System: "2#¥@..."
With the backing of the system, what did Fang Zheng have to fear? He immediately became rich and wealthy, but his face remained calm and enigmatic as he smiled and said, "This donor does not need to worry, the poor monk has his own solution."
"Uh, are you serious? Okay! I support you! But I may not be enough on my own. Later I will call Yang Ping and his wife to help. See who is idle, and pull them all over!" Yang Hua heard this
Fangzheng was about to do it for real, and he immediately became energetic and said excitedly.
When Fang Zheng heard this, he was also moved in his heart. If the ingredients were prepared early and the cooking method was taught, wouldn't he be able to have some leisure? Fang Zheng, who was lazy and had a recurrence of cancer, was about to nod his head.
result……
"Ding! You want to hold a Buddha Bathing Ceremony and spread Laba porridge. This Laba porridge has to be made by yourself to make sense." The system said.
Fang Zheng rolled his eyes and said: "Brother, do you know how many people will come then? If there are hundreds of people coming, are you sure you want to cook porridge and not stew me? If I am exhausted, just pat my butt and leave.
.what about me?"
The system continued: "It's just a friendly reminder. You can ask them to help. But I want to remind you that the Laba porridge the system gives you is not just for eating. This porridge can cleanse people's soul and sort out their blood, essence, and spirit."
, make people radiant and get rid of hidden diseases! Treat diseases if they are sick, and prevent diseases if they are not! However, if someone else makes it, this bonus will be gone. It’s not that I look down on you, but I hope you can see the reality clearly and use the current one-finger temple
Judging from its influence, it’s hard to say how many people will come that day.”
Fang Zheng thought that this was the case. Besides, most of the people who could come were villagers at the foot of the mountain. Everyone was kind to him. It would be too much to not eat the original Laba porridge for a meal.
