"It can be seen from his face that although he has been serving the world all his life and giving a lot of kindness, he was quite lonely in the first half of his life. His parents passed away one after another before he was a year old. Although he married a wife, his wife also passed away early. , although the child has incense, but the child also has problems after he grows up..."
Following Fakong's words, Ge Jiren's expression slowly changed, obviously being caught by Fakong's words.
After Fakong finished speaking, Ge Jiren couldn't help asking:
"Could it be that my parents, wife, and children are all because of my fate..."
Listening to Ge Jiren's words, Lian Ge glanced at Fakong, then turned his gaze, and shook his head at Ge Jiren,
"Doctor Ge, the matter of facial appearance is like a file. It happens first, and then it is recorded. That's why Master Fakong only talks about your first half of your life."
"What benefactor Lian said is true." Fakong put his palms together and said to Ge Jiren.
Hearing this, Ge Jiren heaved a sigh of relief,
"I'm sorry, Brother Lian, Master Fakong, I lost my composure, old man."
Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head, looked away,
And Fakong looked at Lian Ge again,
"...Benefactor Lian, as I said before, even a person like Benefactor Ge can see some clues, but benefactor Lian, I can't see anything on your face, benefactor Lian."
Hearing this, Lian Ge didn't answer, didn't turn around, and still stared into the distance.
"From the feeling, it's like..." Fakong hesitated, and turned his head to look at the Jizu Hall on the front side, "It's a bit like the statues in temples and Taoist temples, but there is a big difference, it seems to be more... 'Tall' a lot."
Hearing this, Lian Ge turned his head and glanced at Fakong, but still didn't answer.
"My little monk is so bold that I ask Master Lian to help me out." Fakong clasped his hands together, bowed and said to Liange.
Lian Ge glanced at Fakong and shook his head slightly.
On the side, Ge Jiren's grandfather and grandson looked at Fakong and Liange, but did not dare to make a sound.
"Please benefactor Lian, please clarify your doubts." Seeing Lian Ge shaking his head, Fakong continued to bend down, ready to kneel down on the ground.
Seeing this, Lian Ge stretched out his hand and did not let him kneel down.
"It's not that I don't want to explain your doubts to you, it's that you're talking about facial features, and I don't know the reason."
Hearing this, Fakong didn't forcefully kneel down, but his face became more puzzled.
"Benefactor Lian..."
Seeing that Fakong wanted to ask more questions, Lian Ge shook his head.
Seeing this, Fakong had no choice but to give up.
"...Na Lian benefactor, Ge benefactor, I will continue to take you to other places..."
Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head, glanced at the tourists not far away who were about to surround him because of the previous movement,
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge looked at Fakong,
"No need, I've read the Lectures and Jingci Temple, so it's time to leave." Lian Ge turned his eyes to Ge Jiren's grandfather and grandson,
"Doctor Ge, do you want to go together?"
Hearing this, Ge Jiren nodded, then hesitated for a while, and said to Lian Ge:
"Brother Lian, Tianshou and I are also going back to the clinic, do you want to go and have a sit down, Brother Lian?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled slightly, then nodded in response:
"It just so happens that there is some time. Since Doctor Ge invited you, let's go and have a sit."
Ge Jiren then nodded.
On the side, Fakong saw this and immediately said:
"Sponsor Lian, Donor Ge, can I join you, little monk?"
Hearing this, Ge Jiren hesitated, glanced at Lian Ge, and then nodded to Fakong,
"Since Master Fakong is willing, it is naturally possible."
Hearing that Ge Jiren agreed, Fakong immediately answered and asked:
"Where is Benefactor Ge's clinic? I'll ask my nephew to drive us there."
Fakong still clasped his hands together, looking a little attentive.
"Master Fakong, will this be too troublesome..."
"No trouble, no trouble, benefactor Lian, benefactor Ge, wait a moment, I'll call my nephew right away."
After speaking, Fakong took a few steps back, turned around and ran towards the backyard.
It attracted a lot of pilgrims and tourists in the temple to look sideways.
"Caution, hurry up and drive your car to the gate of the monastery..."
Lian Ge couldn't help shaking his head with a smile when he heard the voice coming from a distance.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge glanced at the Jingci Temple, the smile on his face gradually faded.
Looking at the direction of the meditation room in the backyard, Lian Ge's eyes slightly blurred.
Chapter 123 Lost Soul
Lian Ge and others went down the mountain in the car of Nephew Fakong and approached Ge Jiren's Xuanhu Hall.
Along the way, Lian Ge watched the passing scene outside the window and didn't say much, and Fakong and Ge Jiren's grandson naturally didn't say much.
Inside the car, it remained relatively quiet.
After a while,
The car carrying Lian Ge and others drove into a street.
On both sides of the street, the mottled traces on the shop facades indicate the years that this street has experienced.
"...It's here."
Ge Jiren sat up straight and said aloud.
Then, the car stopped again.
Lian Ge and others got out of the car one after another.
Slightly stamping his feet, Lian Ge glanced at the Xuanhu Hall in front of him. This is an older building, the wall on the side facing the street is made of wood, and there are two wooden pillars erected at the eaves and on both sides of the door.
The red paint on the wooden pillars has long faded, with scratches and potholes, and the marks left by some years are clearly visible.
On the plaque hanging on the door frame, the words "Xuanhutang" are engraved.
At this moment, the door of Xuanhu Hall is open, and there are several old people sitting in the room, chatting and laughing.
Seeing Ge Jiren's grandfather and grandson come back, several old people got up one after another and greeted them.
"Doctor Ge, I don't know what's wrong with my waist these days, and it hurts a little, so I need to trouble you to take a look..."
"Wait a minute." Ge Jiren nodded in response, then turned back to greet Lian Ge and the others,
"Brother Lian, Master Fakong, please sit down first, I'll let these guys have a look and we can talk."
"Okay, Doctor Ge, you should be busy." Lian Ge retracted his gaze, stepped into the Xuanhu hall, and nodded in response.
Fakong naturally followed suit and nodded, and stepped into the Xuanhu Hall.
"Chengde, go get two cups of tea."
After leading Lian Ge to sit down, Ge Jiren turned his head again and shouted in the direction of the medicine cabinet on the side of the medicine hall.
Lian Ge and Fakong followed Ge Jiren's gaze and looked in that direction.
In front of the medicine cabinet, a man in his thirties was sitting, with no expression on his face, staring blankly at the ground in front of him.
Even though Ge Jiren's voice fell, there was no reaction at all.
"Chengde, go get two cups of tea."
Ge Jiren tirelessly shouted again,
This time, the man sitting at the medicine cabinet finally reacted, and slowly turned his head to look at Ge Jiren.
After pausing for a few seconds, he stood up without saying anything, and walked towards the water dispenser placed in the corner of the room.
Seeing this, Ge Jiren sighed slightly,
"Tianshou, go help your dad."
"it is good."
In response, Ge Tianshou ran over, while Ge Jiren turned around and said sorry to Lian Ge and the others.
"Sorry to make everyone laugh."
Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head slightly and looked towards the water dispenser.
I saw that the man whom Ge Jiren called Chengde walked to the water dispenser, then stood there again in a daze, just looked at the water dispenser in a daze, raised his right hand slightly, and then lowered it again.
At this time, Ge Tianshou had already run over,
Standing beside the man, he opened the water dispenser door, held the man's hand and said:
"Let me teach you, if you want to receive water, first open the door of the water dispenser, like this..."
In the medicine hall, Ge Tianshou's crisp voice resounded,
"Then, you need to take out a paper cup, like this... Come on, you hold the paper cup with your left hand."
As Ge Tianshou said, he took his father's left hand and put the paper cup in his father's hand,
"Because we are going to make tea, so after taking the cup, we need to put tea in it..."
The man stared at Ge Tianshou blankly, and followed Ge Tianshou's words step by step.
"Well done, the tea has been poured..."
There was some joy in Ge Tianshou's tone, perhaps feeling the change in Ge Tianshou's tone, a smile appeared on the man's stunned face.
"In the end, we just need to turn on the switch of the water dispenser and pour water. Like this, put the water cup under the spout, and press the switch with the other hand..."
While talking, Ge Tianshou held his father's hand and drank the hot water from the water dispenser.
suddenly,
Perhaps the hot water was too hot, the man's hand holding the paper cup shrank back suddenly,
In an instant, scalding hot water splashed onto Ge Tianshou's hands.
Ge Tianshou couldn't help but also retracted his hand, his expression was a little painful, but he suppressed the pain and didn't cry out.
And the man looked at Ge Tianshou, his expression on his face changed a little bit, his eyes showed pain, he raised his right hand slightly, but immediately put it down again.
"...It's okay, let's try again."
Ge Tianshou blew a few breaths on the back of his red hand, and then smiled at his father.
……
"Tian Shou, are you alright?"
"It's okay, it's okay..."
"Doctor Ge, Chengde is still like this after so long?" The old man with backache pulled up the clothes on his waist, looked at the two people beside the water dispenser, and said aloud.
Hearing this, Ge Jiren didn't say anything, just shook his head.
……
On the side, hearing the voice of the old man beside him, Lian Ge looked back, and then turned his gaze to the two people next to the water dispenser.
Seeing Ge Tianshou's father, Ge Chengde's sluggish movements and reactions, Lian Ge's eyes slightly blurred,
"Sponsor Lian, this is... the disease of losing one's soul."
On the side, Fakong, who was also watching the scene next to the water dispenser, hesitated, and said to Lian Ge.
Hearing this, Lian Ge turned his head to look at Fakong and nodded.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge continued to look at Ge Chengde beside the water dispenser.
