Bab 296: Eye of the Sky

The two observed these Śramaṇa younglings; each of their eyes gleamed in spirit, hinting at the extraordinary intelligence hiding behind them.

They arrived before the house pointed out by the old monk.

The house was not a particularly large one. The door had already lost a few patches of its original paint, its structure was old and weary. The gap below the door was too wide, and there was no way that it was able to protect its occupants from the wind.

The two were about to knock on the door, but instead, the door opened on its own. His Holiness Kong Hai stepped out from the house with a smile as he greeted in Anjali Mudra. "Greetings Almsgiver Gu, and to this other almsgiver as well."

"Your Holiness, this is brother Ding, Ding Jian. We have come to ask for teachings, Your Holiness." Gu Yue greeted again in Anjali Mudra.

Kong Hai, who was smiling with Anjali Mudra in return, beckoned the two to enter the house.
