Soul Painter

Soon, Lawrence knew that the "ascetic practice" referred to the monks of the Great Ku Temple, who would perform the "Two-hour Toutuo" every year after the 15th day of the eighth lunar month.

Dhuta is asceticism.

Two o'clock refers to the time of twenty-six, that is, according to the twelve hours, six o'clock in the daytime and six o'clock in the evening, that is, the meaning of asceticism throughout the day.

The "Ershi Toutuo" in Daku Temple refers to the monks begging for food along the way, sleeping in the wild, and walking more than 600 miles, which takes about half a month. However, this year's "Ershi Toutuo" is going to Mongolia.

At the second time, only the monks of the Daku Temple can participate in the Thutuo. Of course, there are also lay Buddhists who voluntarily follow.

...

It is two thirty in the morning on the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar.

This year's penance has officially begun.

The monks in gray robes lined up with huge bags on their backs.

Gao Fan was impressively in the queue.

When Lawrence said goodbye to Gao Fan, he held Gao Fan's hand like a little daughter-in-law who was about to be abandoned, very reluctant.

"Little brother, you must come back!" Lawrence urged, "This is the last time, come back to Boston with me when you come back, don't do it, you have done it until your wife and children are separated..."

"Where did I get my wife and son?" Gao Fan was puzzled.

"Xin Wei is your wife, and God is your child. When you really don't want to come back, just think that God is still in my hands, okay?" Lawrence hugged God and said with a sigh.

Meow~ God let out a grievance.

Gao Fan smiled again, turned around and joined the ranks of monks.

Following the call of the Buddha's name by the leader, Abbot Miaochan, the team of monks wearing plain robes and backpacks set off towards the east where the curtain had just been lit.

next half month.

Gao Fan walked from Liao Province to Meng Province together with nearly a hundred monks from Daku Temple. He still only slept four hours a day and ate only one meal, but this meal was obtained by begging, so he left A week later, Gao Fan, who was wearing a gray monk's robe, had already blended into the group of monks. Even Xin Wei, it was difficult to identify which skinny and dark monk was Gao Fan.

...

this time.

The hunting team, which has been tracking the saber-toothed tiger, noticed the action area of ​​the saber-toothed tiger and began to leave the Great Kuji Temple.

...

The environmental protection department of Liao Province has been tracking the saber-toothed tiger 'Bai Yueguang' for more than two months. It has used a lot of manpower and material resources, and it is not without the idea of ​​​​killing it directly. It is easier to plan, but it is still a difficult problem to implement.

That saber-toothed tiger was so smart that the hunting team wondered if it was disguised as a human. However, any traps set on purpose would be avoided. On the contrary, those non-governmental organizations who wanted to take pictures of saber-toothed tigers had their camps repeatedly attacked. Patronizing, lost a lot of daily necessities, and even a photographer was seriously injured by a saber-toothed tiger.

From the mobile phone video provided by the cameraman companion, it can be seen that facing the attack of the saber-toothed tiger, the photographer holding the Nepalese scimitar felt like a scarecrow. He was bitten, damaged, and then thrown away at will , fell into the blood and hissed and screamed.

The saber-toothed tiger leisurely flipped through the supplies in the photographer's tent, while the photographer's companions were so frightened that they lost control of themselves.

This video was widely disseminated. From that moment on, human beings understood the difference between tigers kept in zoos and real top predators. The "sliding shovel dissection of tiger belly" party on various forums was fatally hit. , while the environmental protection department strictly prohibits any private person from approaching the saber-toothed tiger, and issued a document that can be killed.

The search level for the saber-toothed tiger has been raised again. Once helicopters, drones, jeep squads, and military police find its whereabouts, they will set up a net and all human settlements within tens of kilometers of the area where it appears will be issued. Warning, demand All residents must close their doors and windows, and cannot go out alone, and it is best not to go out at night.

Once a saber-toothed tiger is found, the environmental protection department of Liao Province will also start a live broadcast, the purpose of which is to warn citizens in all areas to be careful.

Now, the live broadcast is on again.

The camera of the live broadcast is aimed at a cornfield and a flat plain in the distance. In the distance, along the asphalt road, there is a town vaguely seen. There is no host, but the title of the live broadcast says 'found near Qijia Town, Liao Province' White Moonlight 'Passing Traces'.

...

October.

The weather in the Northeast is already cooler.

Outside Qijia Town.

It was just getting light.

A group of monks had already come by the side of the provincial road, all of them were wearing patched monk robes, they looked like a group of beggars from a distance.

"I'm coming!"

Several reporters who had been waiting here got excited.

They are reporters from the domestic "Artist Guide".

Especially coming here, of course, I am not concerned about the ascetic practice that I see every year at the Great Kuji Temple, but I am here to catch Gao Fan.

"Artist's Guide" has done a topic selection before, about Gao Fan's creation in Daku Temple, but because it was just a candid shot and there is not much information, so I just made a superficial one, but I didn't expect the response after the report was very good good.

So I planned to do another issue, but Gao Fan, who will never be interviewed, made reporters and editors scratch their heads. As a result, just a week ago, a documentary "Master of the Great Power" was broadcast on CCTV. Domestic audiences have paid attention to Gao Fan again.

As the only "master" under the age of 30 in the documentary, and certified by CCTV, this is the first time that Gao Fan has appeared on a domestic TV program for so long, so the domestic audience began to study this young master, and now he is doing Well.

As a result, I saw, ho, have you become a monk?

why?

A young master who can sell over 100 million US dollars for each piece of work, why is he so hard to think about it, because this secular world can't give you stimulation, so you have to go to Buddhism to find inspiration?

What the audience wants to see is what the media wants to report.

So "Artist's Guide" decided to do another special issue about Gao Fan, and it turned out that it just happened to coincide with the artist's "painting" to a new level and started to walk some ascetic roads, so he simply caught up with him all the way.

They drove, and the monks of Daku Temple walked, so naturally they could catch up.

But when they caught up, the monks of Daku Temple had already gone back from Mongolia, and they were only three or four days away from Daku Temple.

When I returned to the Great Kuji Temple, I wanted to interview again, but it was difficult. After all, when Gao Fan returned to China to become a monk, many reporters tried to interview, but they returned in vain.

The reporters were waiting on the side of the road holding their cameras and video cameras. They had already prepared their interview manuscripts. Of course, Gao Fan may not be interviewed, but as long as he took a photo or took a few shots, it could be enriched into an extremely interesting manuscript. , Gao Fan’s own actions have made him a hot topic and hot topic on mobile.

"Excuse me, is Master Gao Fan in the team?" A reporter grabbed the head monk and asked.

"There are only laymen here, not masters." The monk smiled and shook his head.

"Gao Fan, the one who painted the oil painting." The reporter asked, but the monk kept smiling and shaking his head, and the reporters immediately gave up: "Oh...forget it, I'll find it myself."

But how to find it.

All of them are bald.

Because of begging for food for more than ten days, of course, I was not hungry. After all, there were many believers along the way, and they all scrambled to give alms to the monks, but after all, there was such a thing as sleeping in the wild. Thin and wearing a gray monk's robe, it is impossible to tell who is who.

How is this an interview?

A few reporters were frowning when they suddenly heard the slapping sound of "Pu Leng Leng Leng Leng Leng Leng Leng Leng Leng Leng" behind them. They turned their heads in shock and saw a helicopter flying over in the twilight of dawn, broadcasting while flying:

"Attention! Please evacuate the people ahead! Evacuate immediately! There are large beasts appearing nearby!"
