Shao Min smiled bitterly and said: "I know...I won't do it anymore. I will investigate clearly before I do anything in the future. I will never make arbitrary conclusions about things I don't understand."
Fang Zheng said: "Amitabha."
"Abbot Fangzheng, you are holding a mooncake party tonight, can we join in the fun?" Zhao Gang was obviously more interested in this event.
As a result, before Fang Zheng could speak, someone next to him patted Zhao Gang on the shoulder and said, "If you want to participate in the mooncake conference, just follow me and get your own stool!"
Zhao Gang was stunned and looked at Fang Zheng.
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Welcome the donor."
Zhao Gang immediately laughed. He liked this kind of simple and simple folk customs, without any commercialization, simple, straightforward and happy! So Zhao Gang immediately walked away in a hurry.
Xue Zong saluted Fang Zheng and said, "Thank you, Abbot." Xue Zong tried to put himself in Fang Zheng's shoes. If he were Fang Zheng, he would definitely hate them from the bottom of his heart and would definitely not keep them if he could send them away. But judging from Fang Zheng's performance, he did not force a smile, there was no mask, there was only honesty in his eyes. He was really not angry, he was just a little helpless towards Shao Min before. This shows that the monk in front of him really has a heart that can accommodate all rivers. He has only seen this kind of mentality in abbots of major temples or eminent monks.
"No wonder he became the abbot of Yizhi Temple. Buddhism is indeed profound." Xue Zong sighed in his heart.
Xue Zong took Shao Min and left, but before leaving, Shao Min still asked: "Abbott, is this tree really not afraid of the cold?"
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Yeah."
This time, Shao Min did not follow the nonsense, but left happily, obviously he truly believed it.
It was noon now, and there was still an afternoon before evening. Everyone was not in a hurry and went back to have lunch.
After everyone dispersed, Monkey, who was originally serious, quickly took a pack of mooncakes in his hand. He had just turned around so many times and already had his eye on which flavor he liked the most. Naturally, he would take action quickly and accurately at this time!
Red Boy even rushed out with a cry, and rushed into the pile of mooncakes, rolling all over the floor. Fangzheng hurried over and slipped the naughty kid out. The mooncakes were crushed for this prodigal kid.
The lone wolf who was lying there with a lazy look suddenly became energetic. However, with the red boy's lessons learned, this guy gave up the urge to rush in and roll around together, and instead leaned towards him. Smell them one by one to find your favorite scent.
Red Boy was thrown to the ground by Fang Zheng. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly turned his head and saw a figure flashing past on the Bodhi tree. He chuckled and said, "Master, someone is peeking."
Fang Zheng also smiled, took a five-nut mooncake, came under the tree, tore open the package, and the fragrance of the mooncake wafted out.
Fangzheng mouthed, "Oh, it smells so good."
When Honghaier heard this, he immediately laughed. He quickly took a black sesame-flavored mooncake and came under the tree. He opened the mooncake and a smell of black sesame floated up. Honghaier sucked it hard and let out a comfortable and satisfied sound. Laughter: “It smells so good!”
Seeing this, the monkey and the lone wolf looked at each other and laughed. The next moment, the two guys also ran under the tree. The monkey helped the lone wolf open the box, and then a few unscrupulous guys sat under the tree and ate. While clicking his lips, he also sighed that this moon cake is delicious and that moon cake is sweet...
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at the squirrel villa in the tree.
Sure enough, they had a great time eating. A certain little guy secretly opened the window and looked over in a furtive manner. He kept sniffing with his little nose and his saliva almost flowed out.
Fang Zheng raised his head and the window closed.
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Jingkuan, the moon cakes are delicious. Do you want some?"
"Humph! Don't eat it!" the squirrel said angrily, but he was about to cry while squatting in the house. It smelled so good... he wanted to eat it!
"Jingkuan, it's really delicious! Even better than your pine nuts. If I were you, I would save a few big mooncakes. Wouldn't that be much better than your pine nuts?" Hong Boy shouted.
The squirrel was a little tempted. Yes, although he was cheated of pine nuts, he could get more mooncakes, so it didn't seem like a loss. The squirrel's little paws scratched back and forth on its chest, and various thoughts were constantly fighting in its big eyes.
"Jingkuan, guess what I ate? It was just pine nuts! Haha, it tastes really good! Roasted pine nuts are better than raw ones." Lone Wolf shouted excitedly.
The squirrel swallowed and muttered: "I'll just take a look. I'm not greedy, I won't eat, and I won't compromise."
So the squirrel opened the window again and looked over with a sly look. As a result, a big hand reached over and grabbed it out.
"Ah... let me go! Let me go! You can't even try to calm my anger!" the squirrel howled.
The next moment, a piece of moon cake was stuffed into his mouth. The squirrel subconsciously licked it. It tasted so good...
A few minutes later.
The squirrel touched its round belly and shouted: "Master, this moon cake is delicious, I want to eat it again."
Everyone laughed when they saw this foodie who immediately forgot about everything after having something to eat.
"Take it, it's enough." Fang Zheng also smiled. The squirrel is so big, and it can't eat much even if it eats hard. But Lone Wolf, the big eater, has already eaten the second pack!
Fang Zheng raised his hand and shuddered: "You stupid wolf, be careful, we are holding a mooncake party tonight. If there are not enough mooncakes, I will throw you to everyone."
The lone wolf smiled, then opened his mouth and swallowed the moon cake in one gulp.
Fangzheng raised his leg and kicked it, but this guy still ate it, one bite at a time!
The lone wolf ran away with his tail between his legs, but he ran so hard that he choked...
"Ahem..." The lone wolf hurriedly ran to the backyard to drink water.
Fang Zheng was helpless towards these useless apprentices. Is it because he likes to eat that all the disciples he accepts are foodies
In Buddhism, gluttony is a major precept, but Fang Zheng is uncertain that he may not be able to quit it in this life. Moreover, he was also surprised that the system seemed to have no intention of controlling his mouth.
"Do you want me to take care of it?" As soon as Fang Zheng asked, the system immediately asked back.
Fang Zheng said: "Why don't you care?"
The system asked: "Why do you think you should stop eating?"
Fang Zheng thought for a while and said: "First, gluttony is desire. If you have desire, your mind will be restless. If your mind is restless, you will not be able to meditate on Buddhism with peace of mind. Second, as I said before, just like shaving your head, you will experience pain. Show it to others, let everyone see that we can still be happy like this, so what should they have to be unhappy about? Thirdly, originally monks were not very taboo, but history made trouble, so it became a rule. No?"
The system chuckled and said: "This is indeed the case in your world. But in the Buddha's world, people also abstain from eating, but the Buddhas abstain from living flesh and blood. Buddhism believes that the body can die, but the soul is immortal. There are six reincarnations in the world, and the soul Reincarnation is endless, life is endless. And above this is cause and effect. If you kill and take meat, the other person will have resentment in his heart. After reincarnation, he will definitely take revenge on you. No one knows what the other person will become after reincarnation. Such an existence. If you become an unparalleled genius, your life's efforts will be in vain. Therefore, monks try not to eat the flesh and blood of living beings, so as not to be contaminated with cause and effect, cause trouble, and delay practice. And I follow the rules of Lingshan I don't care about you, I won't care about your greediness. But you are right, gluttony is desire, and when desire is great, you will make mistakes. So, you have to control yourself, otherwise you will be struck by lightning one day, don't blame me for not reminding you .”
