As soon as he sold it, the old man became very popular. One day, the old man went out to sell this snack again. Because the road was rugged and narrow before, the old man walked in the middle of the road with two baskets of delicious food.

5. The Iron-bellied Laughing Monk in Hualin Temple

In the late Qing Dynasty, there was an iron-bellied Laughing Monk in Hualin Temple in Xiguan, who was called Master Guangyuan, and was said to be a monk who came down from Luofu Mountain. About one day in the second year of Xuantong, the laughing monk and twelve or three converted disciples had tea in the hall to discuss Buddhism and teach Zen. One of the disciples suddenly talked about the Shaolin Zen Sect, saying that Shaolin Temple conveyed the legacy of Mo, and Zen, boxing and medicine were integrated.

monk Guangyuan nodded and said good, then patted his belly, ha ha smiled and said, "Zen is here!" " A disciple asked curiously, "Master, your belly is so big that it looks like Maitreya. If you are beaten with a mallet, can you stand it?" Monk Guangyuan said with a smile, "If you can't stand it, can Zanjia still talk about Zen here?" This statement made people more curious, and someone immediately offered to give it a try. Master Guangyuan nodded in agreement.

at first, his disciples hit him in the stomach at will, but they didn't dare to contribute. Every time they punched him, they heard a bang, just like hitting an airbag with their hands. Master Guangyuan told everyone to fight hard. With that, he left his seat and walked into the hall, where he opened his horse and was beaten. Everyone punched you and punched me, and they were so tired that they laughed at the monk as if nothing had happened.

Since then, many martial artists have worshipped at the gate of Hualin Temple because they could not knock him down.
