Chapter 1356 Taoist Master
Chapter 1356 Master Dao
Just as the convoy was moving quickly along the official road, Yongcheng, which was sixty miles ahead of the convoy.
At the gate of the city, an old monk was sitting cross-legged on the ground, with his kind eyebrows hanging down to his earlobes. As soon as he appeared, he attracted the attention of many ordinary people.
However, no matter how the people around him watched and talked, he just sat still.
And next to him, a divination stall was set up.
The stall was set up by a middle-aged Taoist priest with long beards and beautiful beards, and his fairy-like style was very extraordinary.
He had no business in this divination stall, and the middle-aged Taoist priest didn't care. He just looked at the old monk next door from time to time, smiling.
One Buddha and one Tao, this wonderful combination makes many people curious.
At this time, several ragged people came from outside the city. They were a middle-aged couple. The woman was holding a child of four or five years old in her hands, and her husband was carrying an old woman who was so angry that she was so angry.
The family met the monk and the Taoist priest. After hesitating for a while, they didn't know where the courage came from, so they suddenly ran to the monk and knelt down.
The woman cried and said, "Master, you are a monk. Can you save us?"
The old monk opened his eyes, looked at the family, and said slowly: "Amitabha, my Buddha is merciful, is this donor in trouble?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest next door couldn't listen and said, "Is Wuliang Tianzun, bald donkey, are you blind or have nothing to say? The family is so poor that they are wearing torn clothes and pick them up. The one who is with his family is obviously fleeing. You ask them if they are in trouble?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest who was struggling with one leg on the stool said to the family of four with a smile: "The bald donkey is the most shameless. If you beg him, it is better to come and ask Master Dao. At least Master Dao will not care about your donations."
The Taoist priest's words made the family of four hesitate.
The old monk said lightly: "If the donor is in trouble, just say it. Meeting me is a destiny. If I can help, I will definitely help."
The woman mustered up the courage to say, "Master, we are coming to flee from the border. The Liao army over there is fighting with the court, which has made us, the people who live on the border, really unable to survive now. I would like to ask the master to take my child in and let him become a monk than to starve to death with us."
The old monk glanced at the girl standing in front of his mother, looked at her girl timidly, frowned slightly, and said, "The Buddhist silence is so quiet that I can't stand the suffering, but this girl is really not suitable to enter my Buddhist sect."
The middle-aged Taoist priest next to him sneered and said, "I said you are interesting, so how could you send your daughter to be a monk? It's almost the same to find a sister-in-law. It's really not possible. I'll send me to Taoism, learn the Taoist Taoist Taoist Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master, and become immortals to seek happiness. It's also a good thing."
The family looked at the Taoist priest and felt that the middle-aged Taoist priest was really unreliable, so they had to look at the old monk with eager eyes.
The old monk raised his hand and touched the girl's head, sighed, "If you make up your mind, I will take her away and place her in a nunnery. When she grows up, returns to secular life, becomes a monk, or seeks relatives, and all of them will follow her own wishes, okay?"
The family immediately knelt down when they heard this, and burst into tears of gratitude.
The old monk reached out to hold the girl, but he didn't expect the girl to hide behind. She pointed to the Taoist priest next door and said crisply: "I want to go with him."
