I swim Bi Jinshan Temple, rushed to the time elapsed Dinghui Temple 13:00 PM. Hot days, people are tired and really walk in, they would spend the night on duty made a request of the novices. Novices talking Bingbaozhike. Find Zhike later, he asked me not lay, I said no, then the next he was embarrassed, because they generally receive only token, but see, I was sweating profusely, with big, it is sympathy, then movement of an old monk talked about my situation, who I have a master looked up, a slight nod. I was arranged to live with a young novices.

To lay down their luggage, settled bed, then sit down and chat with a few small master. Before dinner, a little monks, jokingly said: "We are here to implement the 'communist', food is not limited, eat up." Although I am tired of people, but a good appetite, then filled with a bowl of rice, scoop the a bowl vegetables, sat a very, very long on the table Youziyouwei to eat up. Next to an old monk looked at me, his face devoid of expression. I chose the burning cabbage tofu, Tangtangshuishui, which are not fresh peas and bean sprouts Jigen was estimated to be remaining on the meal. Vegetables without salt is not short, it is delicious. After dinner back to the room, with room for the young novices told me that a long table is used exclusively for the monks, I should sit square on the table meal.

About 1 hour later, Zhongseng have orderly, slowly entered the Vegetarian Hall for breakfast before meals, after meals is also a brief recitation ceremony. It is surprising is that dozens of monks sit together and eat, had not the slightest sound. Two novices to mention the porridge waited barrels back and forth.
