Mu Xi didn't know whether to express admiration or to be speechless for his young master's strange ideas that popped up from time to time. Although it was said that every time he really decided to put it into practice, the effect was still remarkable, but he mentioned The suggestion sounds weird every time.
In fact, Mu Xi has always been curious about why the young master has so many strange ideas in his head. Sometimes his ideas feel risky, but sometimes they also feel fun.
He didn't know that Lin Chong, a new young man in the 21st century, had heard and heard much more than he imagined. Most of his messy ideas came from various sources. He picked it up from the novel, plus some of his own ideas based on the actual situation, that is, it is almost enough to fool ancient people like them.
Take his idea this time, for example. Although Mu Xi felt that this idea was a bit childish and would be very embarrassed if it was directly exposed by others, for a while, he couldn't think of anything more direct and effective than this. There's a solution.
After all, their current situation only seems to be calm, but in fact it is already full of dangers. Let’s not talk about the threat from Emperor Chongzhen, just talk about the vassal kings who are hiding in the dark and ready to make moves, as well as those Manchus who don’t know when they will come over. People, their current situation is very critical.
If by this time, the two confidants the young master trusts so much cannot work together to assist him, the probability of something happening to him will be greatly increased.
Extraordinary times call for desperate measures. Even if they are discovered, nothing will happen. If these two people can really understand the young master's painstaking efforts, then they should seize this opportunity to shake hands and make peace.
Besides, the young master has always had a very accurate eye for people. Since he is willing to take these two people under his command, then these two people cannot be wrong. Judging from his observations during this period and the long time they spent together before , both Wei Changqing and Mao Bijiang can be regarded as leaders with both political integrity and talent, but I don’t know why the Wei family was so infamous before.
Lin Chong's idea was actually very simple. Since the two of them couldn't sit down and talk calmly, then create an opportunity for them to have to sit down and talk, and this opportunity was at Qixia Temple.
As early as not long after he moved to Qixia Temple, he had gone to Qixia Temple and had a good talk about life with the abbot there, old man Jueming. After returning, he always seemed to have a lot of insights.
Mu Mu followed them the whole time, and when he came back he asked him what the two of them were talking about, but he hesitated and couldn't answer. Let's talk about Buddhism, the young master really doesn't understand anything about Buddhism! Sometimes he feels like he has two The personal chat was obviously full of nonsense, but they were able to continue chatting happily, and they chatted for a long time. If you really asked him what Lin Chong had realized, he would not be able to answer.
Because of this friendship, Lin Chong would occasionally go there. Especially when he was upset, listening to the sound of chanting would really calm him down. He also knew that this was just a psychological effect, but I can't help but feel awe of these gods and Buddhas in my heart.
He once asked Jueming: "Old monk, you people here believe so much in Buddha, but has anyone really seen him appear?"
"In fact, I have seen a lot of people. Not only my father has seen it, but my little friend has also seen it."
"Hey, don't lie. When have I ever seen a monk who doesn't lie?"
"Maybe you can't understand it now, but you will naturally feel it when you need it."
"Will the Buddha help all those in need? Aren't they very tired? They have to do many, many things every day, and they probably have to work overtime until very late." Lin Chong touched his chin and sighed. It seems that what kind of work is he doing these days?
It's not easy.
The old monk shook his head and smiled without saying a word. The two sat facing each other in silence for a while, and then he seemed to remember to ask Lin Chong the purpose of his trip: "My little friend, what do you want when you come here?"
Lin Chong raised his eyebrows: "How do you know that I am asking for something from you instead of just giving you some extra money?"
The old monk squinted his eyes and looked at him with a smile: "Amitabha, I have said before that you will naturally see him when you need him."
Lin Chong couldn't help but laugh. The old man was so thick-skinned that he now thought of himself as Buddha.
"Although you are also an accomplished monk, you haven't become a Buddha yet, so you are trying to act like a Buddha to me first." Lin Chong looked at him condescendingly.
"I am a Buddha, and my little friends are also Buddhas. All living beings can become Buddhas." The old monk turned the beads in his hand, still as kind as ever.
The chat between the two of them was often like this: You don't know what I said, and I don't know what you said. It might be that Lin Chong was the only one who didn't know what Jueming wanted to express.
But he somehow felt it made sense. Every time after chatting with him, the depression in his heart seemed to disappear a lot, and Lin Chong unceremoniously regarded the old monk Jueming as a free psychiatrist.
"My little friend, you haven't told me what you want here this time?" Jueming walked with him for a few steps.
"You haven't told me yet, how come you think I want something?"
Jueming stopped, pointed to the bustling crowd below and said to Lin Chong: "Look at all the living beings who come here for something. Those who want nothing will not come here."
Lin Chong let out a long breath: "Forget it, I really don't want to tell you whether this is true or not. Anyway, I can't tell you the truth every time. You get around me with these incomprehensible words. Why don't you still?"
Why don't you tell me directly that the secret must not be leaked, so at least I will feel more comfortable listening to it."
Jueming was also amused by him and laughed out loud: "If you like hearing this, little friend, then I will say this next time." While saying this, he clasped his palms together very seriously and murmured to himself.
Said: "The secret of heaven must not be leaked."
"Ahem, I'm not joking with you. I really want to ask you to do me a favor this time, but this favor shouldn't be difficult for you."
"My little friend, you might as well tell me first and let me know what kind of work it is."
"It's like this. In two days, I will bring two friends over. These two people are amazing. One is a famous writer and the other is a famous wealthy businessman. If you can convince them both, then
By then your Qixia Temple will be famous." Lin Chong said as he touched Jueming's shoulder.
