The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 19: Hook column debut

Hui Nai and Senior Brother Hui Bing, one is a cat slave and the other is a dog slave. They were pinched. After repeated inspections, Yunyan decided to ask them to be a pair of partners and give lectures together.

This is really painful, and both of them feel that Yun Yan returned to the children to behave, isn't it that they derogated his bear?

However, those who firmly believe that they want to listen to Yunyan's reply also support the pairing of Hui Nai and Hui Bing, and they rehearse every day. This has caused a lot of jokes, and everyone says they are a happy couple.

So recently, as soon as the time was up, the temple contacted Zhujiaqiao Wazi, the largest washhouse in Bianliang.

This Wazi boss is also dumbfounded. The monk is going to perform? Or a monk from Daxiangguo Temple? Is this an arrangement or no arrangement?

According to the words of Daxiangguo Temple, their monks are going to give lectures.

Although Buddhism was popular in the Song Dynasty, everyone came to the wash house for fun. You can talk about the Buddhist scriptures there. Would anyone really like to listen to it?

Even if it was the common saying of the Tang Dynasty, the entertainment is not necessarily as high as the slander in the washers now. It is easy to ask the gods to send them to the gods. If the monks go to the washers and get cold, wouldn't it be rushing guests? Broken their reputation?

The boss struggled again and again, and boldly made a request to Daxiangguo Temple to watch a performance first and then judge whether it could be accepted.

In the first line of the year, there was a line of rules, and Yun Yanhui also agreed to the boss's request, but he was not afraid of leaking the secret. After watching a rehearsal, the boss felt that the level was above the average and had more unique and novel features, so he nodded decisively and agreed with the monks of Daxiangguo Temple to give lectures in the tile house.

For the people of Bianliang, this is an ordinary day. Many people have nothing to do, so they go outside the wash house to see today's tricks. The recruits will write about who or groups are in Wazi today, and what kind of programs are performing.

In this way, the people know it in their hearts.

As soon as it opened, Zhujiaqiao Wazi updated its tactics. The first line is the eye-catching Zhu word, clearly telling everyone that there is a new blockbuster show today. Performers: Daxiangguo monks, performance content: narration.

There are more than a dozen hooks in the Zhujiaqiao Wazi, which can accommodate thousands of people at the same time to watch the performance at the same time, and it is almost full every day, regardless of rain or shine.

The people in Bianliang have seen more artists of all kinds, and have watched performances with all kinds of characters, but they have never seen the monk walk into the shed. I want to give everyone a paragraph. This combination can be Fresh enough.

The people filed in one after another, and the washroom gradually became full.

In the golden age, one of the hooks will usher in the first show of the monks of Daxiangguo Temple.

The stage in Wazi is surrounded by railings, so it is called goulan. It is not much different from the modern stage. There is a curtain separating the front and backstage, and the upper and lower stage passages connect the two ends for the actors to enter and exit. It is called "Ghost Road".

In the theater, which is the backstage, Hui Nai and Hui Bing stood there flexing their hands and feet, preparing to play. In fact, they do not necessarily need two people to perform this section, one person can also perform it, but Yun Yan was afraid that the first time everyone was nervous, so that they would all match up.

The two of them were somewhat nervous. Listening to the movement in front, they were suddenly pulled back by Yun Yan's clothes, and quickly looked down, "What's wrong, Brother Yan?"

Because I took this matter very seriously, I came here too, and just sat and drank tea.

Yun Yan glanced back for a clear look, and whispered, "Later, I will change the names of the characters in your opening episodes."

"Change, what?" Hui Nai and Hui Bing listened to Yun Yan's reply, their eyes slowly widening, and they rubbed their hands and laughed, "This, is this really good?"

"It's all for the purpose of spreading the Fa, the Master will definitely understand." Yun Yan said back.

He told both Hui Nai that all the monk roles in the script were temporarily changed. He always stared at rehearsals before, so he never said it, but in his heart, using a clear name is the best!

Obviously, in Bianliang, there is a certain degree of popularity, which can make the audience feel substituting and enter the atmosphere of the story faster, which will help the newcomers on the stage and the audience to get closer.

However, in Hui Nai and Hui Bing's eyes, they only thought that Yun Yanhui was playing a prank, and they both happened to be very entertaining, so they didn't mind doing this...

The gong rang three times, and two young monks in monk clothes walked out one after the other from the ghost door and joined together as a salute. They immediately drew a burst of applause. Many other spectators in front of the hook also squeezed here when they heard the news. , I want to see what the monk has to say.

"Dear benefactors, Little Monk Hui Nai (Little Monk Hui Bing), from Daxiangguo Temple." Hui Nai Luoluo generously greeted everyone, but he would not be afraid of being seen by so many people. There are more people doing things in the temple.

"Everyone should know the Daxiangguo Temple. It is very famous. It has a lot of masters and monks, like our abbot, and the master of the two of us."

The audience nodded, yes, it is clear that everyone knows, a good monk, with excellent medical skills, every time he takes the monks to treat the disease on behalf of the Daxiangguo Temple, it is also in the minds of people who have seen it. His face immediately emerged.

The backstage heard this clearly and thought it was an example of on-the-spot performance.

Hui Bing: "Everyone should have participated in the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival at Daxiangguo Temple. In that scene, thousands of lights were on, and the whole of Bianjing was shining brightly. But this year’s Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, we knew that Uncle Master encountered one. Very interesting thing."

Hui Nai: "Yes, maybe everyone doesn't know. That day, a female benefactor came to see the lamp and met Uncle Ran, but she stopped him and asked, which of the many lanterns in this temple is the brightest."

Speaking of this, the listener has already aroused interest, and in his mind he remembers which lamp will light up.

Backstage, with a clear face, "???"

Hui Bing: "Who is my uncle? Without blinking my eyes, Dang Even replied: The lights in the temple are the brightest."

Hui Nai: "The female donor pressed again: Where is the light of the heart when the Buddha lamp is in front of the Buddha?"

Hui Bing: "Understandably, the uncle said: Lao Na doesn't need to look at his lamp, he has a clear light first. If the sky shines, the sky is clear."

There was a few applause from the audience, and everyone heard it with some spirit, and they didn't know how to play the front.

Hui Nai imitated the aggressive tone of the female donor: "Can you illuminate the heavens and the earth, can you illuminate the surnames? The heavens and the earth are clear, can everyone know?"

Everyone held their breath to listen to the answer, but heard Hui Bing replied loosely: "Yes, you can." Like an old monk, with a slight exaggeration, a chuckle suddenly sounded.

This was also Hui Bing's on-the-spot performance. Hui Nai was so risky that he didn't laugh, and asked, "How many people have you seen?"

At this point, it has been transformed into imitation without a trace, and the "uncle teacher's answer" must be added in front of it.

Hui Bing: "I see one, half."

Hui Na: "Who is one, and who is the half?"

Hui Bing: "One is me, and the other is you."

Hui Nai: "I will use my teacher's seat to teach the Fa with you."

Hui Bing raised his hand: "Let's find a guy!"

Everyone thought that it was a sharp machine front in the end. Who knew that Hui Bing said something ridiculous at the end, and it was just right. When he thought that it was the monk who said it, he suddenly laughed and broke his belly.

Even if it is very good and choking, how can a monk ask a believer to find a man? It's too rude!

However, many people smiled and felt that this was not a slander, but a wonderful machine. It seemed vulgar, but in fact it was not half blasphemous.

What the monk does is really serious. Although it makes you smile at first sight, it does contain Zen principles when you think about it carefully. So when you laugh again at this time, it is a knowing and admiring smile, and whispering to explain to someone who doesn't understand.

In short, since here, the venue can be said to be completely hot.

Yun Yanhui listened carefully in the background, and found that the effect was good, at least the people in the audience understood. This paragraph just now is a classic excerpt from the historical reference book "The Story of the Flower Lantern Sedan Carriage Girl Becoming a Buddha", with a little adaptation.

The core of this story is actually the Buddhist story of the dragon girl offering orbs to the Buddha, transforming her **** into a man and becoming a Buddha. At the beginning, Buddhism was gender-discriminatory and believed that women could not become Buddhas. Later, Mahayana Buddhism had the concept of equality of all beings, but it did not allow women to directly become Buddhas, but women first became men and then became Buddhas.

Therefore, in the conversation between the Zen master and the woman, the woman is "half", which means that she has only a female body. If you want to become a Buddha, you need to "find a man". It is vulgar on the surface, but in fact it is pointing out the way to become a Buddha.

If you have a little understanding of Mahayana Buddhism, you can naturally understand the meaning behind this seemingly nasty word. If you don't understand, you will feel a sense of reversal when you know afterwards.

The opening went well, and Hui Nai and Hui Bing told three or two similar stories one after another, and they used them all to be the protagonists. Although they all responded well, they were not as "mad" as the first content.

The first one was specially selected by Yun Yanhui, asking them to use it first.

In the third paragraph of the "knowledge" story, everyone heard them again, "I know what our uncle is saying..." Although they didn't know what was below, they couldn't help but laugh for some reason.

After the two had finished talking about the content of the invitation, the audience was still not satisfied. At this time, they should have exchanged a pair to give a speech. However, looking back at the ghost way, Yun Yan opened the curtain back and gestured to them. Because they feel that the atmosphere is right now, and they are in the same state, so don't stop. Let's talk about a scripture. Anyway, they have all practiced.

So Hui Nai and Hui Bing got right and told a story derived from Buddhist scriptures. Compared with the previous paragraphs that were hilarious or smiling, the core of this story is compassion.

The audience who was holding on to the expectation of continuing to laugh was surprised again, but they were also infected by the story, and they shed tears in all likelihood. Fortunately, the ending is good and evil and evil is rewarded.

"All evils do not do, all good practices. Purification of their meaning is all Buddhism." After summing up with the Buddhist scriptures, the two Hui Nai and the opening ceremony once again joined the eleventh ceremony and walked into the door of ghosts.

The audience under the hook was silent for a moment, cheering loudly.
