There are fox demons at home that are difficult to raise

?Chapter 2

As a young man in the 21st century, Shen Sinian really doesn't want to say that he believes in Buddhism.

The next day he went to the nearest temple, and walked through the winding mountain roads in the downtown area and out of the suburbs before he could see a corner of the temple.It was a very old temple, and there was a dilapidated gilded bronze statue at the entrance, and the red-painted nanmu stakes had begun to peel off, revealing the original dark brown inside.The monk cleaning the courtyard, wearing a yellow cassock, walked around the courtyard full of fallen leaves with a broom, and the strong sandalwood in the air made people dizzy.The strange thing is that even though it is summer, the leaves have already started to wither and fall.The four corners of the eaves are hooked with red walls and green tiles. Inside the house lit by incense candles sits a young monk knocking on wooden fish. In the center of the hall sits a solemn Buddha statue. After crossing the golden edge, the calm and kind eyes seem to look down on all living beings. Life is in his eyes, he is omnipotent, it is this kind of feeling for all sentient beings but high above that makes Shen Sinian believe in it.People say: Buddha picks up flowers and smiles and saves sentient beings.

Shen Sinian had a hunch that this creature beyond his cognition was the calamity he needed to overcome in this life.On the small river, a benefactor came and hurriedly got up to call the abbot. There were no pilgrims in the hall, and even the wind blowing was a desolate and chilling feeling, and the daylight was dim.The abbot is an old man, the purpose of entering is kindness, the only eyebrows and beard that can be seen are long and gray, and the cassock on his body is also old and earthy yellow.The whole temple seems to give people a very unreliable feeling. There are only four people including Shen Sinian, one is an old monk who cleans the courtyard, one is a young monk who knocks wooden fish, and the other is the abbot.

But it was this temple that drastically changed the municipal committee's plan to build a road. It was originally intended to be demolished, but it turned out that it was blocked in the middle when the road was built.The reason is that when the municipal committee announced its plan to demolish temples and build roads, citizens, whether poor or wealthy, dragged their families and signed their names on the banner refusing to demolish temples.

This is not the superstition of one or two people, it is the belief of a group of people.

For the older generation, this temple is their spiritual pillar and their belief during the war. They can pray to the Buddha to bless them and bless them to survive the war.

For the younger generation, the tall sycamore tree in front of the temple was once climbed.In spring, the buds hang all over its branches. In summer, you can see the lush green leaves, enjoy the shade under the tree, and watch the sun shine through the layers of leaves on the mottled ground.In autumn, its golden leaves fall to the ground like a thick carpet.They have also stepped on it with bare feet, listening to the crisp and crunching sound of the leaves.In front of a Buddha statue in the temple, they once brought their beloved to kneel on the futon to ask for a marriage lottery.Although they have grown up and are busy, they no longer have time to visit it, but the memories and happiness they have had will never be forgotten.There is also the old abbot who grows up with them, and he is also aging day by day. Every time he talks to him, there will be a feeling that the sky is bright and the sky is high and the sky is clear. It seems that every word he said is Zen language, which makes you confused. Find the direction in it, understand right and wrong, cause and effect of all things.

Shen Sinian is one of the younger generation.Therefore, the belief in Buddha was deeply rooted in him when he was young.

This is not the chatting and laughing of people after dinner, it is when you have experienced war and pain, and your heart has no place to rest, you have found a place where you can let your soul rest, where there is no pain, no trouble, only peace.This sense of security will make you unforgettable and will leave a deep mark on your heart.Even if the years go by and your heart no longer suffers, and you are placed in another place, you will not forget him.Because it has been deeply imprinted.Maybe you will be busy with work in the future, and you will no longer have time to visit the place where your soul once lived, or maybe you have gradually forgotten its appearance after a long time of polishing.But when one day you hear that it will be destroyed and cease to exist forever, you will also feel uncomfortable like five thunderbolts. You will not want to lose it, and you will think: "Ah, this place that once let me stay, I should To protect."

Although the temple is still deserted, few people care about it.But whenever someone thinks about it, this dilapidated place is still waiting for them in place.

Shen Sinian followed the abbot into a small cubicle, wooden doors and windows, candlesticks with unextinguished candles, dim orange candles flickering, the small space is only big enough to accommodate a small candlestick, a bed covered with yellow velvet A small wooden bed made of soft cloth, and a small wooden table with tea cups.Shen Sinian sat on the small wooden table facing the host, he smiled and motioned for Shen Sinian to speak, for him, Shen Sinian was humble, "A few days ago, my disciple met a monster, and now I don't know whether to keep it or not."

The old host smiled knowingly, his eyes were kind and wise.He said: "You have made a decision in your heart, so go do it." Shen Sinian was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, if he didn't want to stay here, did dogs eat up his time these days?

After a short stay, Shen Sinian went back. The fox demon thought that he had only traveled for one month, but it was outrageously wrong. Since Shen Sinian met him, it had been three years since he woke up.He was fair all over, so Shen Sinian called him Xiaobai.At the beginning, Xiaobai's breath was weak, and he was unconscious all the time.At night, he transforms into a human form.The figure is so pale that it is almost invisible, and he will become the prototype of the fox demon during the day. The old host said that this is the self-healing of the demon.Gradually the figure became clear.So passed a summer and autumn.

Then at a certain period of winter, Shen Sinian noticed that Xiao Bai's figure began to fade again. He asked the host for advice and found out that this fox demon's body temperature is cold by nature, and he was seriously injured, so he couldn't resist the cold.So as long as Shen Sinian is at home, Shen Sinian will hug him, even the night when Xiaobai transforms into a human form. Shen Sinian's habits, fun, hobbies.

Another spring and autumn, Shen Sinian has lived with him for two years, Xiaobai has no sense except breathing.Shen Sinian started to go for a walk with him after dinner again, picking a sunny day in winter to let him feel the warmth of the sun, and picking a cool day in summer, hugging him under the tree to enjoy the shade leisurely.

A month ago, Xiaobai suddenly opened his eyes. Shen Sinian couldn't restrain the joy in his heart and hugged him tightly. Then, he saw the clear fear and contempt in Xiaobai's eyes, and he looked at him quietly. , look around.Shen Sinian suddenly felt funny looking at his little fox demon.He thought, the little fox demon probably thought that he didn't know he was a demon, that he had just transmigrated, and then transmigrated into a little fox, because from then on, even if he was sleeping with Xiao Bai at night, He has never seen him in human form again.

Xiaobai seems to be unfamiliar and afraid of all modern things.He is also unfamiliar with the TV, the floor, and even the colorful light printed through the colored glass on the roof, so in a month, Shen Sinian often sees a snow-white fox, raising his long and narrow red phoenix eyes. Tsundere and curious, wandering around the modern tools, from time to time proudly stretched out his paws to touch them.Shen Sinian's happiest moment is when he takes him out for a walk every day, because at this time of day, Xiaobai's face has the most expressive expressions.He always walked in front of him swaggeringly, watching the cars passing by with a curious expression on his face, then his whole body tensed up when the cars passed by, and then he proudly raised his head and looked in other directions.

Shen Sinian probably guessed that Xiaobai was going to run away, without any reason, just intuition.

So, after he felt that Xiaobai had learned to use all modern tools and was able to understand the tools that threatened him, he picked an excellent night and came home late for the first time in three years.

He let him go because he wanted him to stay willingly.
