At night, I didn't return to the office either. Maybe I was a little bit scared in my heart, maybe because I was afraid of being hurt. I found a hotel nearby and just stayed overnight.
When I waited the next day, I didn't enter the office either. Instead, I drove to the temple and drove directly to the entrance of the store.
When I opened the car door, there were leftovers from the night I ate and drank with Brother Zheng, and the red envelope he gave me. There was a full five thousand yuan in it.
With this wad of money, I really didn't feel good about it. Not only did I fail to help, but instead caused Zheng Ge to lose an arm and this supermarket.
It's useless to feel guilty. When you get the chance, go to his country to visit him.
Although Brother Zheng took me to the temple last time, I still remembered the route. It took about 30 minutes by car to get there.
"Om... Om..." As soon as I arrived at the door, a group of people were chanting.
Strange, today is not Sunday, how can it be so lively.
With doubts, I walked into the temple again, and as soon as I entered, a strong scent of sandalwood came to my nose, and an incomprehensible buzzing sound came from my ears.
"Amitabha Buddha, benefactor, it is not convenient for my temple to pick up guests today, so please come back tomorrow." Before I took two steps, a master came to me under the name of Buddha and directly gave me an order to evict guests. When he said that, his face was very gentle. Calm, I don't know how to answer the conversation.
I came here deliberately all the way, how could I go back to the house because of his two sentences, but I am a guest after all, and here is a Buddhist pure land, I can't always look around, so I am also very polite I slapped him in Buddhist language and said, "The master is bothered, but I came here today to find a master who gave me Buddha jade a few days ago, and I asked the master to be accommodating and accommodating." Take out the jade fragments I wrapped from my pocket and show it to the master.
When the master saw the jade fragment, his eyes suddenly became a little sad, but it was fleeting, and immediately returned to normal, and then said to me: "So you are Lin Shizhu. Please also come with me."
He knows me? What's the matter, even if he knew me from the master who gave me the jade, I didn't tell the master my name.
In my doubts, I was taken to a side hall by the master.
This is not a monk's room, not a Buddhist hall. Why do you bring me here? So I hurriedly asked him: "Master, I'm here to find this master, please let me know."
"Amitabha...Lin donor, our abbot has passed away three days ago. Today is his death ceremony. This is the letter he left to the donor, Amitabha..." The master read from the drawer of the book in the room. He took out a letter to me, and after typing a Buddhist language to me, he retired. Leaving me dull and stupefied...
He turned out to be the abbot of this temple, and he passed away unexpectedly. Although I don't believe in Buddha, I still know what it means to pass away. How could this happen, how could this happen.
My mind is suddenly dizzy. I feel how I am like a plague now, as long as people who are a little involved with me will have troubles one after another.
"Shit... Shit..." The clenched fist caused the envelope to make a harsh rubbing sound in my hand.
I didn't open the letter immediately. I was afraid that I would not be able to stand the stimulus, and I shed tears here. With sorrow, he walked out of the temple, and when he walked to the gate, he knocked his head three times at the place where they were chanting. After returning to the car, I opened the letter and read it:
"Boy, if you will come to me again, it seems that Yu has already blocked you, and at the same time I am considered to have completed the merits. You don't need to be sad, you are a stranger of the ages. If you can meet you, it should be me. It’s an honor to be able to help you, and it’s the blessing of my third generation. Finally, I’ll give you a piece of advice. If you really encounter a catastrophe that cannot be avoided, then use the blood on your forehead to write yours on your chest. Birthday horoscope. Okay, boy, I'm just a bald donkey monk after all, and I can only help you to this point. The next road, you have to go on by yourself."
Although I can't feel a trace of sadness from the letter the master left me, I can see that my eyes are moist. It turned out that he had seen through me that day, and it was considered that I would be fatal, but he still helped me regardless of his own safety. I don’t believe in any kind of consummation, if a person has to use his own To complete this last task is simply nonsense. What is the difference between this and a cultist? On the contrary, I prefer to accept that he was condemned because he helped me.
After I drove away, I didn't return to the office, but went to a remote place. I decided to take a trip outside to release my dull mood. I went to Shanghai, Lijiang, and various places of interest. When I came back, it was already half a month later.
……
After the transfer, Zheng's supermarket has also become a new face, a new look of fruit shop. After this period of baptism, my mood has almost recovered nine out of ten.
"Huh... Ah... The air in my place is comfortable." Standing outside my store, I stretched out a lot.
"Boy, do you like to play missing now? Every time you go is ten days and a half months, so next time you can say hello to me early, so I don't have to come here every day. "
The one talking to me is still the old Mei who loves to joke with me. It seems that everything has changed a little bit, but the postman who has remained unchanged for thousands of years will not change. After seeing his familiar ridiculous smile, I also revealed a sweet smile from my heart and smiled at him. : "Oh... I'm really sorry, every time you go out, you always have your old concerns. Come and come... Don't be angry, just smoke a cigarette and calm down."
"Smelly boy, you still have a conscience. If you can do it right now, you can go out twice, and even the luxury car has been driven..." Lao Mei took my cigarette and pointed to my Xiaobai appreciatively. .
"I don’t pretend to be old when I’m old with you. This car is not mine. I am only temporarily practicing for others." Although I was telling the truth, Lao Mei used a pair when I heard it. He looked at me with a completely unbelieving look: "I bought it and bought it. Young people make money for spending. If there is anything I dare not admit, I won't ask you to borrow money. Okay, I won't talk to you. Now, I have to work. Take it, this is your newspaper for half a month." After being despised by Lao Mei, he rode away on his little electric donkey.
Seeing a dozen thick newspapers in my hand, I was really a little scared. The last time I got the Lao Mei newspaper, Brother Zheng came to the door. I couldn't help but smile. When did I become so nervous.
I didn't use firecrackers to celebrate the opening this time. Instead, I went to the newly opened fruit shop next door, bought some fruit, and recognized the door by the way. The owner of the shop is a beautiful woman in her early thirties, nodding her head, she looks pretty good and looks pretty.
And I also seemed to be returning to an ordinary life again. On the afternoon of the opening day, the neighbor next door came to remind me that several people had come to look for me in the days I left. So after getting the contact information from the neighbor, I also called back. They are all the same, not investigating and collecting evidence, or just waiting for the task. It's boring, it's boring, and it's not profitable. But it keeps me busy and at ease, maybe this is the day I really want to live. (End of this chapter)
