Hui Nai and Senior Brother Hui Bing, one cat slave and one dog slave, had a good time, but Yun Yanhui decided to ask them to be a pair of partners and lecture on the scriptures together after repeated investigations.
This is really excruciatingly painful, and both of them feel that Yunyan returns to the children to be fooling around, isn't it because they demoted his family's bear
However, clear and unswervingly believed that Yun Yan would return, and also supported the pairing of Hui Nai and Hui Bing, who rehearsed every day, so they caused a lot of jokes, and everyone said they were a pair of happy friends.
In the past few days, when the time is almost up, the temple contacted the largest tile house in Bianliang, Zhujiaqiao Tashi.
This boss Wazi is also stunned, the monk wants to perform? Or the monk of Daxiangguo Temple? Is this an arrangement or not
According to the words of the Daxiangguo Temple, their monks are going to teach the scriptures.
Although it is said that Buddhism was popular in the Song Dynasty, everyone came to the Washe to have fun. If you talk about Buddhist scriptures there, will anyone really like to listen to it
Even if it is a common saying in the Tang Dynasty, the entertainment is not necessarily as high as the jokes in the current washhouse. It is easy to ask the gods to send them off. Ruined the reputation of their washers
The boss struggled again and again, and boldly put forward a request to Daxiangguo Temple, to watch a performance first, and then judge whether he could accept it.
This year, there is a line of rules in one line. The boss asked this, and Yun Yanhui agreed, not afraid of him leaking secrets. After the boss watched a rehearsal, he felt that the level was above the average, and it was more unique and novel, so he nodded decisively and agreed with the monks from the Daxiangguo Temple to enter the Vasse to teach the scriptures.
…
For the people of Bianliang, this is an ordinary day. Many people have nothing to do, so they go outside the Washe to see the tricks today. The tricks will write which people or groups are in the Wazi today, and what kind of programs are performing.
In this way, the people will have an idea.
As soon as it opened, Zhujiaqiao Wazi updated the tricks. The first line was the eye-catching Zhu characters, which clearly told everyone that there was a major new program today.
There are more than a dozen hook bars in the tiles of Zhujiaqiao, which can accommodate up to thousands of people watching the performance at the same time, and it is almost full every day, rain or shine.
The people of Bianliang have seen more and more various artists, and they have also watched performances with various characters, but they have never seen the monk walk into the shed. I want to tell you the last paragraph. Such a combination can be fresh enough.
People filed in one after another, and the shack gradually filled up.
In the golden age, one of the Goulan will usher in the first show of the monks of Daxiangguo Temple.
The stage in Wazizhong is surrounded by railings, so it is called a hook fence, which is not much different from the stage seen in modern times. There is a curtain separating the front and backstage, and the upper and lower stage passages connect the two ends for the actors to enter and exit, which is called "Ghost Road".
In the theater, that is, the backstage, Hui Nai and Hui Bing stood there to move their hands and feet, ready to play. In fact, they don't necessarily need two people to play this part, one person can also play it, but Yun Yan was afraid that everyone was nervous for the first time, so they all matched up.
The two of them were somewhat nervous. Listening to the movement in front of them, Yun Yan suddenly pulled back their clothes, and quickly looked down, "What's the matter, Brother Yan?"
Because he attaches great importance to this matter, he also came, and sat aside to drink tea.
Yun Yan took a look back and said in a low voice, "Later, change the names of the characters in your opening paragraphs."
"Change, what is it?" Hui Nai and Hui Bing listened to Yun Yan's reply, their eyes slowly widened, and they rubbed their hands together and laughed, "This, is this really good?"
"It's all for the sake of spreading the Fa, so the Master will definitely understand." Yun Yan replied.
He told Hui Nai and the two that the monk roles in all the jokes were temporarily replaced by Ran. Knowing that he had been staring at the rehearsal before, so he never said it, but in his heart, using the name of Mingran would have the best effect!
It is clear that in Bianliang, it is well-known to a certain extent, so that the audience can feel a sense of substitution at once, and can enter the atmosphere of the story faster, which will help the new people on the stage to get closer to the audience.
But in the eyes of Hui Nai and Hui Bing, they only thought that Yun Yanhui was playing a prank, and the two of them happened to be very entertaining, so they didn't mind doing it...
…
The gong rang three times, and two young monks dressed in monk robes came out from the gate of the ghost door one after the other and saluted everyone, which immediately attracted a burst of applause, and many other audience members in front of the hook also crowded here when they heard the news. , want to see what the monk has to say.
"Every benefactor, little monk Hui Nai (little monk Hui Bing), from Daxiangguo Temple." Hui Nai greeted everyone generously, but he was not afraid of being seen by so many people, and there were more people doing things in the temple.
"Everyone should know that Daxiangguo Temple is very famous. There are many masters and eminent monks, like our abbot, and our two masters, like Zen master Liran."
The audience nodded in succession, yes, it is clear that everyone knows him. He is a good monk with excellent medical skills. Every time there is an epidemic, he takes the monks to heal and distribute medicine on behalf of the Daxiangguo Temple. Immediately, his face appeared.
When the backstage person heard this, he thought it was an example of on-the-spot performance.
Hui Bing: "Everyone should have participated in the Lantern Festival in Daxiangguo Temple. At that scene, all the lights were on, and the whole Bianjing Jing was splendidly illuminated. But this year's Lantern Festival, we know that the teacher encountered one. Interesting thing."
Hui Nai: "That's right, maybe everyone doesn't know. That day, a female benefactor came to see the lanterns. When she met Uncle Ran, she stopped him and asked, which of the many lanterns in this temple is the brightest."
Having said that, the listener has been aroused by interest, and secretly thought about the memory in his heart, which light will be on.
Backstage, with a confused look on his face, "???"
Hui Bing: "Who is my uncle? Without blinking, he immediately replied: The lights on the Buddhist temple are the brightest."
Hui Nai: "The female donor asked again: The Buddha lamp is in front of the Buddha, where is the heart lamp?"
Hui Bing: "Understood, the uncle said: "Old Na doesn't need to look at his lamp, and his own spirit will light up first. When the sky shines on the ground, the sky and the earth are all bright."
There were a few cheers from the audience, and everyone heard a little bit of energy, and they didn't know what to do next.
Hui Nai imitated the aggressive tone of the female benefactor: "Can you illuminate the world, can you illuminate all surnames? Heaven and earth are all clear, can everyone understand it?"
Everyone held their breaths to listen to the answer, but heard Hui Bing's answer in a series of loose voices: "Yes, yes, yes." Like an old monk, and slightly exaggerated, there was a chuckle immediately.
This is also Hui Bing's on-the-spot performance. Hui Nai almost did not laugh, and asked again, "How many people have you seen?"
At this point, it has been transformed into imitation without a trace, and there is also a "Master's answer" in front of it.
Hui Bing: "I saw one, and half."
Hui Nai: "Who is one and who is half?"
Hui Bing: "One is me and half is you."
Hui Nai: "By my teacher's seat, I will be with you."
Hui Bing raised his hand: "Go find a man!"
Everyone thought that it was a sharp machine in the end. Who knew that Hui Bing said a joke at the end, and it was just right. When he thought that it was said by a monk, his belly was bursting with laughter.
Even if it is very good and very choking, how can a monk ask a letter girl to find a man? It's too rude!
However, many people laughed and laughed, and felt that this was not a joke, but a wonderful tactic. It seemed vulgar, but it was not blasphemous.
What a monk is doing is indeed a serious matter. Although it makes you laugh at first, it does contain Zen principles when you think about it. So at this time, laughing again, is knowing and admiring, and whispering to explain to those who don't understand.
In short, from here, the place can be said to be completely hot.
Yun Yanhui listened carefully in the background, and felt that the effect was good, at least the people in the audience understood. This paragraph just now is a classic excerpt from the historical reference book "The Story of a Lotus Woman in a Flower Lantern Sedan Chair", with a little adaptation.
The core of this story is actually the story of the dragon girl offering jewels to the Buddha in Buddhism, and then transforming into a man and becoming a Buddha on the ground. The earliest Buddhism was sexist and believed that women could not become Buddhas. Later, Mahayana Buddhism had the concept of equality of all beings, but it did not allow women to become Buddhas directly, but women first turned into men and then became Buddhas.
Therefore, in the dialogue between the Zen master and the woman, she said that the woman is "half", which means that she has only a female body. If you want to become a Buddha, you need to "find a man."
If you have a little understanding of Mahayana Buddhism, you will naturally be able to understand the meaning behind these seemingly rude words. If you don't understand it, you will have a sense of reversal suddenly knowing after the fact.
The opening was very good, and Hui Nai and Hui Bing told three or two similar stories one after another, and they all used Mingran as the protagonist. Although they all received good responses, they were not as "powerful" as the first content.
This first one was specially chosen by Yun Yanhui, telling them to use it first.
In the third paragraph of the story of "Knowledge", everyone listened to them again, "Speaking of our uncle, we know clearly..." Although he didn't know what was going on below, he couldn't help but laugh for some reason.
After the two of them finished talking about the content of the invitation, the audience was still not satisfied. At this time, they should have changed the pair to speak the scriptures. However, when they looked back at the ghost door, Yun Yan opened the curtain and gestured to them. Because I feel that the atmosphere is right now, and they are also in a state, don't stop at all, and say a passage of scriptures, they are all practiced anyway.
So Hui Nai and Hui Bing confronted each other and told a story derived from Buddhist scriptures. Compared with the previous paragraphs that made people laugh or smile, the core of this story is compassion.
The audience, who had been expecting to continue laughing, were surprised again, but they were also infected by the story, and most of the time, tears came down.
"Don't do evil, do good. Purify your mind. It's all Buddhism."
The audience under the hook bar was silent for a moment, cheering loudly.
