âEn- enlightenedâŚâ Father Chen was stupefied by this masterâs statement. In all his years, it was the first time he had heard that a human body could be enlightenedâŚ
âI donât usually give people this sort of whole body enlightenment service, but this kidâs situation is unusual. Saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda. As for the cost, thereâs no need to pay.â The master smiled and said, âWhen the child is fully recovered, I hope youâll bring your family here to the monastery and join me in seclusion for half a month.â
Father Chen touched Super Chenâs forehead. Although Super Chen still looked very weak, his fever was indeed gone.
Master Jin Dengâs âBody Enlightenment Spellâ just now had indeed dispelled the curse.
Father Chenâs expression was full of reverence. âWhat is honorable masterâs name?â
âThis old monkâs Buddhist name is Jin Deng.â
Master Jin Deng said in a clear voice, âThe reason I asked you to join me in seclusion isnât because I want you to work for me, but because I have a feeling that in the next fifteen days, the wicked character behind this will attack you again. My monastery is a little shabby, but it can protect you against evil and turn ill luck into good.â
âMany thanks, master!â
Father Chen nodded solemnly.
This incident was too insidious.
Super Chen, who had always been in good health, suddenly caught a cold, and the hospital couldnât discover what was wrong with his body. In the end, it was revealed that he had been cursed⌠If it hadnât been for Dr Liu and Master Jin Deng, Super Chen might have fallen ill and died from this curse this time.
Father Chen couldnât help the cold sweat that burst out on his forehead at this thought.
Liang HengâŚ
Apart from his endlessly scheming and competitive senior brother, Father Chen truly couldnât think of anyone else he knew who would do such an evil thing.
Father Chen never thought that Liang Heng wouldnât cherish even a bit of their brotherhood ties.
âThe matter of seclusion cannot be delayed. The best would be if youâre able to come tomorrow.â
These were Master Jin Dengâs last words to Father Chen before the latter left.
âThank you, master. After Iâve organized everything, Iâll come over tomorrow.â Father Chen nodded.
His next job was to persuade Mother Chen.
Furthermore, Father Chen was also very worried about Xiaolingâs mom, so he persuaded her and Xiaoling to go with them to the monastery for seclusion. To Father Chenâs surprise, he actually succeeded. This was because Father Chen was originally an atheist who had never prayed to Buddha for help before. Now, he suddenly planned to go into seclusion. Moreover, his attitude was so grave and serious⌠Mother Chen and Xiaolingâs mom were instantly alarmed.
âMaster Jin DengâŚâ
Before she retired to be a housewife, Mother Chen used to do the census.
She repeated the name and pondered over it, somehow feeling that this Buddhist masterâs Buddhist name sounded familiar.
âŚ
On the first day of seclusion, Father Chen brought Super Chen, Mother Chen, Xiaolingâs mom and Xiaoling to that slightly time-worn monastery. The martial arts dojo was temporarily closed, with Father Chen notifying the students beforehand and telling all of them that he was going on a trip. In order to avoid losing students during this period, he gave each of them two extra free classes.
Actually shutting their business for half a month would have a pretty big impact on the Chen familyâs income.
But health was more important.
Even if they knew that the person who had cast the curse was Liang Heng, they didnât know how he was doing it or how to ward against it. Fortunately, they had Master Jin Deng to guide them.
âBenefactors, this house is for you. I hope you can cultivate your mind and live a happy life for the next half a month.â A young monk led them to a square courtyard house inside the monastery. Father Chen saw that it wasnât just them, but other people had also come for seclusion.
âThank you very much, little master.â
Father Chen made a Buddhist salute. âOh, by the way, where is master?â
âShifu is teaching people about Buddhism in the main hall. This is part of his regular âTodayâs Teachingâ session. If youâre interested, you can sit in.â The young monk smiled.
Todayâs TeachingâŚ
For some reason, Father Chen thought the name sounded a little familiar 1.
It was Master Jin Deng who was responsible for arranging all the classes during seclusion. Since he was teaching at the moment, it naturally wouldnât be good for Father Chen and the others to disturb him, so Father Chen took everyone to the main hall to sit in on the lesson.
There were also a lot of people there.
They found mats on the side and sat down to listen with great interest.
Father Chen later learned that people regularly came to Master Jin Dengâs monastery for seclusion. During this period, you could stay as long as you wanted as long as you paid for water, electricity and accommodation. Besides, accommodation was very cheap.
This Jin Deng Buddhist Temple had many devotees. From this point, it could be seen that this Master Jin Deng was indeed a man of ability.
Every day, there were a lot of people who attended the âTodayâs Teachingâ session, and there were also a lot of questions asked.
Some of them were disciples in seclusion inside the temple, who would come and ask questions whenever they had doubts, and some came from far and wide seeking guidance. All types of questions were askedâŚ
A monkey coder with a bald head asked, âMaster Jin Deng! The day before yesterday, two options suddenly popped up on my computer screen, asking me to install a patch or choose to skip⌠I donât know what to doâŚâ
âIs it a security software prompt?â Master Jin Deng smiled faintly.
âMaster has such foresight! Itâs a 360 Total Security pop-up⌠Master, please tell me what I should doâŚâ
âBenefactor, youâre thinking too much. In fact, you have a third option: uninstall 360 Total Security.â
âMaster⌠is wise!â
Everyone: ââŚâ
âŚ
The second question came from a married woman who was in seclusion at the temple. Father Chen heard that she had been waiting in line for a long time to ask a question, and only today was it her turn.
Finally, it was her turn to ask a question, and her eyes were full of tears. âMaster⌠My son is insistent on debuting as an idol. What should I do?â
âAn idol? Most children nowadays have this notion; little do they know how deep the waters are, and they canât wade in so casually.â Master Jin Deng sighed.
âMaster is right! But my son wonât listenâŚâ The woman was helpless.
âHow about this, Iâll write you a poem and you can put it on your sonâs headboard.â
The woman asked, âWhat sort of poem?â
Taking out a golden sheet of paper, Master Jin Deng recited as he wrote, âAn idol, hair parted down the middle, he gets dizzy from fancy dribbling; smokey eye makeup and hand cream, he panics when he plays basketball; suspenders and platform shoes, pants tied with a bow at the waist; he can sing, he can dance, is he male or female 1⌠Done, this is the poem.â

The woman: âMaster⌠youâre so powerfulâŚâ
Everyone: âMaster is amazingâŚâ
âYou flatter me.â
Master Jin Deng chuckled. âI summarized the current situation of male idols nowadays. I imagine your son is still quite young, and this is the age when he should be studying. If he is diligent and studies hard, he will certainly be successful in the future. One should be down-to-earth at all times.â
