    [1] "Er Sha. Yuan Yu Shen" Wang Shifu. Yuan Song

    The courtyard is deep, the pillow mat is cool,

    ? A lonely shadow shakes the front of a book.

    ? Even if you get paid for your ambition in this life,

    It's a long night.

    ?It is rare to fall asleep like turning your palms,

    Ten thousand long sighs,

    Pound the pillow hammer bed five thousand times.

    Ever since Wan Zhedu sang against the wall at night, he didn't know how he got back to his residence.

    He sat blankly at first, then leaned against the screen, and then lay down on the bed, sighed, tossed and turned, beat the pillow, and patted the edge of the bed, almost without sleep all night.

    He scolded himself fiercely: "Wansheng, Wansheng, you who can't achieve great things! Who taught you to be so impatient and scare people away when you get up? Tell me, when will you wait?  To see her?

    There is only one chance now, and that is the three-day dojo starting from tomorrow, but I don’t know when the lady will go to burn incense?  Go under the peach tree and wait, hurry to the merit hall and wait, it doesn't matter if you wait for three days or three nights.  "

    In the early morning of the next day, Wu Chen came to the "Rong Knee Mountain House".

    Wu Chen is a young monk who is less than ten years old. He came to Zhe Du out of kindness and curiosity: first, he asked Zhe Du if he would go to burn incense, and second, he wanted to know what Zhe Du had gained last night.  .

    Excitedly, he pushed open the door with one hand, and saw Zhe Du sleeping on the bed, but well dressed, knowing that Zhe Du slept with his clothes on last night.

    He walked lightly to the bed, lowered his throat and shouted: "Mr. Wan, Mr. Wan!"

    Wan Zhedu was in a sleepy haze, his mind was filled with the "moon" of last night, and he whimpered and said: "Junior Sister, Junior Sister, how are you going to punish Xiaosheng?!"

    Wu Chen was taken aback, why did another junior sister come out, hurriedly raised his throat and shouted: "Mr. Wan, Mr. Wan! Wake up!"

    Zhe Du heard someone calling, opened his hazy eyes and saw that it was Wu Chen, and asked, "Little Master, what's the matter?"

    Wu Chen noticed that Zhe Du's eyes were red, and asked, "Mr. Wan, are you sick?"

    "No, I'm fine!"

    "Where is the junior sister from?"

    "Oh, it happened when I was young."

    Wu Chen was not interested in his youth, but only wanted to know what happened last night, so he asked, "Sir, did you stay up late last night? Did Miss come out to worship the moon?"

    Zhe Du said listlessly: "Here we come!"

    "Have you gained anything?"

    Zhe Du said sadly: "Yes and no!"

    "What does it mean to have or not? Is there anyone who talks like that? Is there or is there not?"

    Zhe Du sighed, "Oh! Miss was scared away by me!"

    Wu Chen was confused and worried. Could it be that the nerd did something indecent to the young lady last night, which scared the young lady away?  If the old lady finds out, there will be big troubles!  Hastily asked: "Sir, how did you scare the lady away?"

    Zhe Du already regarded Wu Chen as a confidant, so he told Wu Chen the details of last night's situation:

    How he lay on the rockery last night, how the lady burned incense and worshiped the moon, how he recited poems, how the lady answered poems, how he leaned out of the rockery over the wall, and how he was scared away after being spotted by Ruyan.

    When Wu Chen heard this, it turned out to be the case, and he relaxed his heart, saying: "Sir, don't be sad, the opportunity to meet is right in front of you!"

    After hearing this, Zhe Du felt refreshed and hurriedly said, "Little Master, please speak quickly!"

    "Isn't the Yu family running a dojo [1]? You also spent five thousand dollars for fasting. Can't you meet the young lady in the dojo?"

    "I also want to meet the lady in the dojo, but during the three-day Buddhist ceremony, the lady will not come to burn incense every day. Do you know when she will come? I have to go there every day and wait."

    Wu Chen said mysteriously: "Sir, come here with your ear and tell you a piece of good news!"

    Zhe Du put his ears closer.

    Wuchen said in a low voice: "On the 18th, the merits and virtues will be completed. On this day, the lady will come out on time to burn incense. Don't delay, sir!"

    With such a definite news, Zhe Du became a little skeptical, and said: "Is the news reliable? What if the lady comes to burn incense another day, what if she doesn't come out? What if"

    "Sir, where did you get so many contingencies? The news is absolutely reliable, and you don't even think about it. Miss is doing meritorious deeds for her father, so why not come out?!"

    Zhe Du was overjoyed when he heard that, he bowed to Wu Chen and said: "Yes, yes, the little master is merciful and merciful, and he will be reborn with kindness. After the matter between me and the young lady is completed, I will definitely thank you very much!"

    Gongde said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I don't eat meat, I don't drink alcohol, and it's useless to ask for money. Your thanks, sir, is considered a congratulatory gift from the monk—I hope all lovers in the world will be married!"

    "Thank you so much!"

    Wu Chen got up and said goodbye after learning about last night's situation.

    [2] "Happy Eyes" by Fan Chengda. Poem

    In front of the window, the plums are ripe and the stalks are falling, and the bamboo shoots are growing out of the forest under the wall.

    ?I don't know the end of spring even when it rains, only when it's sunny can I feel the depth of summer.

    Wan Zhedu was happy, afraid and uncomfortable in his heart: he was happy that he could see his junior sister again soon; he was afraid of seeing his wife; the sad thing was that the two long days on the 16th and 17th could not pass.

    Today, the weather is not beautiful, and it is raining lightly.  Otherwise, the moon is sixteen round on the fifteenth day, maybe the junior sister will come out to worship the moon, and there is still a glimmer of hope to see the junior sister.  But now when it rains, everything is over. I really want to scold the Jade Emperor and Master Yu Fengbo severely, so I won't do nothing in vain!

    Guo Jing saw that his master had not thought about tea or food for the past two days, wandering around like ants on a hot pot.  Although he knew his master's temper very well, he had never seen such a lost soul.  I was afraid that the master would get sick, so he tried to persuade him: "My lord, I'm so flustered that I can't eat hot porridge, I'd better calm down"

    Before Guo Jing finished speaking, Zhe Du interrupted him and said, "Hey! Teach me how to calm down!"

    "My lord, you should settle down, as long as twenty-four hours later, you can see the young lady!"

    Zhe Du said anxiously: "What can we do? Guo Jing, come up with a magic formula for your young master. How can we survive these hateful twenty-four hours?"

    Guo Jing was very proud, "My lord, I have already thought of several good ways to pass the time, which one do you choose?"

    Zhe Du said impatiently: "Goutou, what are you talking about! Why don't you tell me quickly!"

    "Yes! The first one is to go to the front and play seven or eight games of chess with the old monk."

    Zhe Du hurriedly said: "No, no! I don't have the leisure to play chess. Besides, the elder is busy with Buddhist affairs, so he doesn't have time to play chess with me."

    "Then practice swordsmanship, train your body, and refresh your spirits. Miss will like you even more when she sees you."

    Notes

    [1] To be a dojo: invite monks and Taoists to do rituals.

    Zuo Daochang also generally refers to the large-scale chanting and worship rituals in Buddhism and Taoism.  Such as Water and Land Dojo, Mercy Dojo, Celestial Master Dojo, etc.  Buddhists chanting scriptures, prostrating, cultivating the Tao, performing pujas to save the dead, etc.

    A place for Buddhist and Taoist chanting, worship, and Taoism.  The behavior of Buddhists chanting, worshiping, and practicing Taoism.

    Tang Liu Zongyuan's "The Second Stele of Nanyue Banzhou Monk": "Master Yuan cultivated the essentials of enlightenment, and was able to observe Buddha, enter the sea of ??love, open the source of truth, and specialize in the Taoist temple."

    In addition, Dojo is also used as another name for temples.  Doing Buddhist rituals in a monastery is also a dojo.  In short, the place where the Dharma is practiced is the Dharma field.  Dedicating the merits of practicing the Dharma to someone is to serve as a dojo for others.

    Do meritorious deeds: Doing meritorious deeds originally means inviting monks or Taoist priests to recite scriptures and repent to save the dead, and it is extended to say good things to cheer you up.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
