With his mind wandering, he went down the mountain. As expected, Fang Zheng saw groups of people carrying wood and stones up the mountain. On this high mountain, if machines can't move up the mountain, they can only rely on manpower.
Unfortunately, the manpower is a little short, there are only about twenty people. At this rate, Fang Zheng estimates that the bell tower will be built.
Fang Zheng greeted these workers, moved out of the way, and then ran down the mountain.
As a result, there was chaos at the bottom of the mountain. A large group of villagers gathered at the bottom of the mountain. Women were pouring water, and men were carrying bricks, stones, and wood. The children also played along, holding a few bricks and following the adults in a decent manner, laughing and joking.
of.
"Song Ergou, please use more force." Sun Qianjin shouted.
"What are you shouting for? My pants have fallen off and I have to lift them up!" Song Ergou shouted, holding up his pants with one hand.
"Chen Jin, once you're old, stop getting involved." Yang Hua and Yang Ping shouted as they looked at a piece of wood passing by.
"Bah, I'm in good health. Let me tell you, I went up the mountain, and you... Hey, you're probably still halfway up the mountain." After Chen Jin finished speaking, he shouted: "Son, use a little more force, work harder, and surpass them!
"
Chen Jin's son Chen Long laughed loudly and said: "Don't worry, let's go!"
Then the two men picked up the wood and chased after him. The two groups actually started a competition.
"The one, two, three... Hey! The one carrying the wood... Hey!" On the other side, Tan Juguo was also there, and he actually sang a folk song. Along with the rhythm, a large group of men in the village shouted in unison.
Saying the trumpet, he picked up the pieces of wood and walked forward.
Moreover, Fang Zheng also saw many people from other villages running to help, and they all looked cheerful, as if they were not here to do hard work, but to enjoy the blessings.
Looking at the heated scene in front of him, Fang Zheng grinned, scratched his head, and laughed. He liked this feeling of being cared for.
"Abbot Fangzheng, why did you come down the mountain? You don't have to worry about this, we just come." Song Ergou shouted immediately when he saw Fangzheng.
Everyone looked over and shouted: "Just recite the sutras carefully. We will take care of this work for you! We will build a bell tower for you as quickly as possible!"
Tan Juguo recalled with a look on his face: "I think there was a bell in Yizhi Temple back then, but the bell was a little small, but the sound was nice. Every day, Yizhi Zen Master would ring it, hey... I was listening to it at the foot of the mountain at that time
When the bell rings, you know it's dawn and it's time to go home for dinner. That feeling... is full of memories."
"That's right. Then the clock broke and there was no movement. I didn't get used to it for a long time." Another old man said.
"It's good now. There is a bell on the mountain again, haha... Abbot Fangzheng, this is your blessing and our blessing. Building the bell tower is a matter of merit. We all follow the merit. You have to let the Buddha bless us.
Oh." At this time, Chen Jin's wife Su Hong came over and said with a smile.
Fangzheng clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds. The poor monk will pray for the donors day and night."
Everyone laughed and continued working.
Fang Zheng couldn't be idle, so he picked up a piece of wood and started walking behind him, which immediately caused a cry of exclamation. However, after seeing the strange kid in Honghai'er, everyone's ability to accept Fang Zheng was obviously stronger. After all, he was an adult.
Are you alive...?
After going up the mountain, Fangzheng naturally couldn't be stingy anymore. He couldn't take care of the food, but he had to take care of enough water. It was just a hardship for Hong Boyer. Basically, buckets of water were transported up the mountain without stopping.
However, after drinking the Wugen purified water, all the villagers expressed their satisfaction, as if the sun in the dog days was no longer so harsh! They felt less tired and full of fighting spirit.
One day passed with the help of the villagers.
However, the villagers also have their own farm work to do, and it is impossible for the whole family to go into battle together. The tasks completed on this first day are not too many, but compared to the speed that the masters hired by the fat man can do it on their own, it is several times faster.
Those masters were also puzzled. They had built many temples, but this was the first time that people had volunteered to help with the repairs! In the past, the temples had to pay more or less, and even the worst ones had to take care of the food.
. And the small temple in front of them only cares about water... They really can't understand why this small temple is so magical?
"I heard about it. It seems to be that the abbot grew up eating hundreds of meals at the foot of the mountain when he was a child. The villagers raised him as half a child. Now that the child has to build a house, he will naturally contribute." At night, a person was sitting on the bed.
,road.
"I see, I'm just saying, no matter how powerful a young monk is, he can't be so supported by a whole village." A thin-faced man said with a smile.
"Okay, what are you talking about? Let's just work hard and leave after getting paid." Another man with a simple face said while lying on the bed.
"Isn't this just saying, but to be able to become an abbot at such a young age is not an easy thing for this kid. Moreover, there are funders investing money in him, which is even more amazing."
"Come on, I've seen a lot of monks. There are still a few young monks who can abide by the rules and regulations. They chant sutras on the mountain, drink wine and eat meat at the foot of the mountain, and pick up girls. By the way, isn't there a group of monks who are allowed to do so now?
Marry a wife and have children? Let me see, Fang Zheng is almost the same." A young man with short hair and dark skin hummed.
"You know what the heck, those are not monks, they are just students who graduated from Buddhist colleges. The purpose of becoming a monk is just to study Buddhist scriptures. In fact, they are not a monk at all. After leaving the temple, they are ordinary people. There are still real monks.
I've seen a lot of them, and real monks give people a different feeling, as if they have auspiciousness, and they feel comfortable just looking at them." said an older man.
"Master Ma, what you said sounds like a myth? Then look at the auspiciousness of the Founder Abbot?" The young man didn't believe it at all.
"Luo Yang, don't you know how to read it yourself? Well... Anyway, I think this monk is different from other monks. Others are so gentle that people can feel at peace just by looking at them. He... is like a round monk.
It's like the sun, very bright. When I see him, all the troubles in his heart disappear, and I feel that my whole person feels brighter. I can't explain..." Master Ma said.
"Hey, me too." Someone immediately echoed.
Luo Yang rolled his eyes and said: "I don't feel that way. Let's forget it. We still have to work tomorrow. I guess no one will help us move things tomorrow. Today they just acted on a whim. Tomorrow will be hard...
"
At the same time, Fang Zheng was also worried in the temple.
"Master, why don't you give me your magic power and I'll get all the materials up overnight, and that's the end of it?" Hong Hai'er said.
Fang Zheng rolled his eyes at him and said, "You made it easy, but how will you explain it when the time comes? You said you flew down and used your magical power to solve it? There are too many troubles, it is difficult to explain, and this way is blocked."
