Chapter 163: Do good deeds and don’t ask about your future!
"Xiaoran, what exactly did you say to the master?"
After leaving the temple, Mother Lin couldn't wait to ask her doubts.
The same is true for Lin Wanjun. Both mother and daughter wanted to know where Lin Ran ran when they were praying just now, and how he could sit with the abbot and be praised by the abbot.
Lin Lan smiled and told them exactly what happened.
They knew about the discussion between Lin Ran and the old monk during the meal.
But he didn't take it to heart. After all, Lin Ran liked to read extracurricular books, and it was normal for him to have some knowledge outside of books.
But he didn't expect that Lin Ran's knowledge of Buddhism could actually be discussed with the abbot!
Mother Lin's eyes changed when she looked at Lin Ran. Her son was really omnipotent and could surprise him every time.
Then Lin Ran mentioned that he wanted to help the temple repair the ancient temple. He originally thought that his mother would refuse and asked him to focus on his studies and family.
Unexpectedly, his mother agreed and praised him for his great merits and that he must help the temple to be repaired.
"Don't worry, mother, I will definitely help you accumulate merit." Lin Ran smiled.
But Mother Lin said seriously: "Xiao Ran, I asked you to help repair the temple, not to accumulate merit for us."
She continued: "This temple was built for our poor mountain villages to keep us safe. If we can help rebuild it and keep the people in good weather, it will be considered a good deed."
Immediately afterwards, Mother Lin said solemnly, "Xiao Ran, you must remember one thing when doing things in the future. Not everything must be repaid, but do good deeds and don't ask about the future!"
Lin Ran was a little surprised that his mother, who had never read a book, could actually tell him this truth, and he couldn't help but sigh a lot.
Such original intention is so valuable in this age of materialistic desires!
He nodded and said: "The child will definitely remember the mother's teachings in his heart!"
Seeing Lin Ran agree, Mother Lin seemed very pleased, and said with concern: "But Xiaoran, you must also pay attention to safety. I also took a look at the ancient temple. There is a danger of landslide at any time, so you must not get hurt. .”
"Don't worry, Mom, I'm sensible." Lin Ran agreed.
When we went back, we were empty-handed and it was time to go down the mountain again. The family felt a lot more relaxed.
But after all, I had gone out early in the morning and had been climbing and descending mountains. When I got home, I felt exhausted.
My sister even lay down on the bed directly when she got home, and soon she snored slightly.
Lin Ran also tidied up and prepared to lie down on the bed for a while while waiting for dinner.
Lin's father was alone at home and walked towards Lin Ran in the yard. Lin Ran thought his father had some teachings and stood up just to ask.
Unexpectedly, his father patted Lin Ran on the shoulder and told him to sit down: "Yang Jianlong came here in the morning. He has something to do with you."
"Do you have anything to say to me?" Lin Ran asked. Yang Jianlong has been visiting him too frequently recently, but it also shows that the other party regards him as one of his own.
"It seems that the boss named Chen wants to ask you for help." Lin's father repeated what Yang Jianlong told him.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ran suddenly realized.
It turned out that Chen Cheng wanted to find him, so he used Yang Jianlong's connections to invite him.
But the other party didn't say what it was specifically.
Lin Ran nodded and said, "Okay, Dad, I understand."
"Xiao Ran, if you're too tired, don't go." Father Lin said.
During this period, you can imagine the pressure on your children as they go out early and come home late, and often deal with big shots.
Rather than his son succeeding outside, he actually hopes for a happy and harmonious family.
If my son doesn't go, he can naturally rest for a while.
"Fortunately, I can't say I'm tired." Lin Ran replied with a smile.
Lin Ran was also very interested in the Chen Cheng family's jewelry business. He would ask him for help, but he would come across jewelry that he had never seen before or jewelry whose quality was difficult to confirm.
Lin Ran naturally wanted to taste such treasures.
The most important thing is that Chen Cheng, this fast ship, will definitely be of great help to him in the future!
Don't give up this kind of favor!
"That's good, Xiaoran. Rather than making a lot of money outside, dad just wants you to be safe and healthy." Father Lin said seriously, putting his hand on his shoulder.
Feeling these thick, calloused hands.
The two men just sat by the well in silence, but Lin Ran felt a sense of trust and felt warm in his heart.
Even the fatigue from climbing the mountain has disappeared a lot.
Then his father left and Lin Ran returned to the room alone.
Based on my memory, I began to recall the ancient methods and characteristics of temple architecture in the Tang Dynasty. Then I took out a piece of paper and started drawing according to it.
Although Lin Ran is an expert in literature and entertainment, he also has some research on ancient architecture.
But after all, he is not an architecture major and wants to learn some architecture-related knowledge so that he can help with the temple repair work tomorrow.
So he drew the image of the ancient temple in his mind on paper.
In fact, black tiles and red walls are simple and obvious, and tungsten wood is also easy to obtain.
But what is really difficult to figure out is the internal structure. The beams and weighing stakes from the Tang Dynasty need to be designed in a large and small form.
How to prop up the temple and how to design the weight of the roof were issues that Lin Ran had not yet solved.
Lin Ran also realized something at this time. As early as the Tang Dynasty, construction technology had already been so developed.
Nowadays, it is rare to see Tang Dynasty architecture in China. On the contrary, overseas Chinese often like to build Chinatowns in their cities and retain the style of Tang Dynasty architecture.
Moreover, Neon Country also retains a large number of Tang Dynasty-style buildings, but most of them are black and white buildings, lacking the nobility and elegance of the black and red colors of the Tang Dynasty.
Elegant design is also very important. Restoring a historical building is not just as simple as repairing it according to its original shape.
The places that can be preserved should be preserved as much as possible.
If it cannot be retained, it must be replaced with the same type or similar materials.
Lin Ran wrote down relevant materials and replaceable materials on paper, took detailed notes, and the afternoon passed.
Looking at his sketch, Lin Ran breathed a sigh of relief and felt somewhat satisfied.
Being able to restore such exquisite drawings in one afternoon is already commendable.
Of course, if Lin Ran hadn't had a lot of knowledge about the Tang Dynasty in his mind, and with the information transmission methods of this era, he would never have been able to design it so perfectly.
Lin Ran looked at the drawings and smiled.
Help Gexian Temple repair the ancient temple. On the one hand, you can restore the historical buildings. The most important thing is to gain the trust of Gexian Temple and get a peek inside!
Before seeing Gexian Temple, he thought the cultural relics preserved by the villagers were porcelain from the late Qing Dynasty, and was not very interested.
But now he is a little excited!
Since it is a temple from the early Tang Dynasty, there must be a large number of Tang Dynasty cultural relics inside. As long as you have the opportunity to dig inside, you might really get a "big opportunity"!
Thinking of this, Lin Ran became even more motivated, and most of the fatigue from the day had disappeared, and he was even more looking forward to the arrival of the next day!
