Chapter 226 One Finger Temple Family
Fangzheng said: "Of course, you can share happy things with the ancestors, and he will be happy too. Remember, come here to worship the ancestors, complain less, and say more good things. If the ancestors are happy, you will naturally be happy too. Your ancestors will protect you, and it will only get smoother in the future."
"Really?" Monkey asked in surprise.
Fangzheng said: "This is a kind of confession. Happiness is contagious. If you think about happy things every day, you will feel happy; if you think about sad things every day, you will only become sadder, depressed, and even in a trance. Such people are prone to problems. Therefore, whether a person is happy or not depends on his mentality. The rich are happy, the poor are happy. And offering sacrifices to the ancestors is to share the happiness with the ancestors. If the ancestors are happy, you are also happy. , happy in the heart, naturally turn danger into good luck."
The monkey scratched its butt, but stopped halfway, scratched its head instead and said, "Although I don't quite understand it, it seems to make sense."
Squirrel tilted his head and said, "I never thought that there would be so much refinement and knowledge in a few actions and a few words."
Fangzheng said: "This is the cultural inheritance of China for thousands of years, but many people have forgotten it and discarded it as dross. But these years, some people have begun to pick it up, which is a good thing."
While speaking, Fangzheng stepped aside and said, "Temples are different from lay people. The principals of the temple are counted according to the time they enter the temple. The lone wolf is the first, the squirrel is the second, and the monkey is the last. According to this order, you also come to offer incense and kowtow. The incense of the lone wolf The poor monk helps him, the squirrel's incense poor monk assists, and the monkey's incense comes by himself."
The three little fellows had no objection, and the lone wolf was even more eager to try. Holding the incense in his mouth, he stood up and imitated Fang Zheng's appearance of clasping his front paws together and worshiping, but he fell forward as soon as he bent down.
Fangzheng said: "One finger to daddy, this wolf is not human after all, it is already the limit to be able to do this, don't blame me if you've made up your mind."
Sure enough, after the Lone Wolf made three prostrations, the blue smoke rose and reached the sky. Obviously, Zen Master Yizhi received the incense and was quite satisfied.
Fangzheng helped the lone wolf insert the incense, and then signaled the squirrel to come forward.
It's difficult for the squirrel. With such a big bundle of incense, it's okay for him to stand up and kneel down? The squirrel looked at Fang Zheng in despair.
Fangzheng took the incense and said: "The poor monk will help you worship."
The squirrel nodded again and again, and hurriedly bowed, Fangzheng followed suit, and said at the same time: "One finger to daddy, this kid is too small, I'll help you, don't blame me."
Another line of green smoke rose to the sky, and the squirrel breathed a sigh of relief seeing this.
Then Fangzheng helped the squirrel insert the incense, and the squirrel kowtowed obediently.
When it came to the monkey, it was even easier. The monkey bowed, inserted incense, and kowtowed by himself. The set looked good, and the cigarettes also went up to the heavens, and the monkey heaved a sigh of relief.
Fangzheng nodded secretly when he saw it, and said, "Yizhi Daddy is a spirit monkey who seeks Buddha from thousands of miles away and has the heart to Buddha. It's just that the temper of a monkey is hard to change, but the poor monk believes that with time, he can become a qualified monkey." monk."
After all the worship, Fangzheng took out the fruit and placed it in front of the grave, saying: "This poor monk came from the foot of the mountain for alms, it's the poor monk's wish, and it's also the wish of the villagers. Just point at the old man and taste it, it should taste good .”
Then Fangzheng took out the hemp money paper and said to the three little guys: "Tear them apart one by one, remember, don't break them, it's not easy to spend if it's broken."
The lone wolf was forced again, he was really powerless, his claws were not working well...
Fangzheng didn't make things difficult for him and asked him to watch from the sidelines.
Fangzheng, the squirrel, and the monkey separated the mochi papers and stacked them one by one. Then Fangzheng lit the fire, and at the same time knelt down and kept chanting: "Amitabha", thinking about the kindness that Zen Master Yizhi had given him. Well, this is a kind of longing, and it is also his way of offering.
The fire started, but there was a lot of hemp money paper, and it seemed that it would not be finished in a while, but Fangzheng was not in a hurry, so he just knelt here and watched.
But the monkey was a little anxious, took a stick, and wanted to pull the fire to make the fire burn faster.
Fang Zhengze cast a stern look, and the monkey threw the stick in fright. Fangzheng said: "I only come to worship once a year, so I have to be patient. Besides, if you go down with this stick, you don't know how many hemp money papers will be smashed and damaged. When you get there, it will be broken money. How can the broken money be broken?" flower?"
The monkey nodded again and again to show that he understood, and obediently squatted by the side and waited.
It's just that Fangzheng didn't say something, and there was another meaning in not letting the monkey poke the fire. The wind is strong, once the fire is jumped, the sparks will be scattered, and it is easy to be blown away by the wind, causing a fire. As for waiting by the side and watching the hemp money paper burn out, it also meant to watch the fire and prevent it from causing a fire. This is not just to accompany and respect the ancestors, there are also many life-level things in it.
One person and three animals guarded silently until all the money paper and incense were burnt, then Fangzheng got up and bowed to the grave again: "One point to daddy, we left , I will come to see you more in the future. Amitabha..."
After finishing speaking, Fangzheng collected all the ashes from the grave, and all the plastic bags left behind, including the tribute.
Looking at the three eager little guys, Fangzheng asked, "Want to eat?"
The three little guys nodded repeatedly.
Fangzheng said: "You can eat it if you want, follow me to worship Zen Master Yizhi, tell him, he will agree."
The three little guys hurriedly followed Fang Zheng to worship Yizhi Zen Master, Fangzheng said: "Father Yizhi, it's a waste to keep the tribute here. After you finish eating, share it with everyone. Here, I will thank you on behalf of the three little guys." gone."
After saluting, Fangzheng distributed apples, bananas and other fruits to the three little things. The three little things hugged each other excitedly, neither daring to eat nor laugh. The appearance is also difficult for them.
Leaving Yizhi Zen Master's grave and returning to the monastery, Fangzheng said, "Okay, you can relax now. The serious time has passed..."
"Squeak!"
"quack!"
"Aww..."
The three little guys were obviously suffocated, screaming one by one, and it turned out.
Boom boom boom!
Fangzheng raised his hand, one by one, and said: "It is forbidden to make loud noises in the monastery!"
The three little guys looked at Fangzheng with tears in their eyes, feeling extremely wronged, it was obviously you who made him relax...
Fangzheng smiled and said, "Okay, let's eat. The poor monk hasn't eaten fruit for a long time... try something new."
Fangzheng's words are true, he almost forgot when he ate last time. After washing a big apple, he flicked his sleeves and went out. His ancestor worship activities are over today, but there are still a lot of people waiting for him at the foot of the mountain.
Look at the time, it's seven o'clock, the time is just right, neither early nor late.
As Fangzheng was going down the mountain, the monkey immediately followed, while the lone wolf and the squirrel looked after the house.
