Chapter 80 The seventy-ninth walk sideways guard against arrogance

I remember one time when I was watching TV, I heard a piece of news saying that there would be a solar eclipse in a few days, and the areas where the solar eclipse was announced on the TV included Miaozhen. Jie Chen talked about this with Jie Ao in the Buddhist hall, and Jie Ao was very happy. He said that solar eclipses are not common at ordinary times, and he should observe them carefully when the time comes. When I saw Jie Ao in the afternoon, I saw him standing in front of Master Zhihui's desk, holding Master's brush and not knowing what he was writing.Jie Chen is a little strange, because except for a few masters, no one else in the temple uses a brush to write. The last time Jie Ao used a brush, he painted panda eyes on Jie Chi's face while he was sleeping.

Jie Chen leaned over to look, and it turned out that Jie Ao was not writing on paper, but was smearing with black ink on several pieces of glass. Jie Chen asked Jie Ao what he was doing, and Jie Ao said that looking at the solar eclipse directly with the naked eye would burn the eyes, so applying some ink to filter the light can protect the eyes. After Jie Ao finished painting the glass, he ran outside the temple gate to look at the sun.A young benefactor who works in the town government happened to pass by us, and asked what we were doing, and Jiechen briefly told him about watching the solar eclipse.

The benefactor smiled and said, Speaking of the solar eclipse, I have a good place to observe it. There is a telescope in our town government, which is the most suitable for viewing the sky. If you are interested, you may wish to come to our place to watch the solar eclipse, it will be much clearer . We were a little worried that going to their place would interfere with the work of the benefactors. The benefactor said, it’s okay, watching from the roof will not disturb other people, so we were very happy to make an appointment with the benefactor, and made an appointment on the day before the solar eclipse. Hours meet in front of the government office building.

On the day of the solar eclipse, Jie Chen went to the town first because he had something to do, so he stopped by the government office building ahead of time. The government office building has three floors, and the benefactor led Jie Chen to the top floor of the office building, which is almost the tallest building in Miao Town.The solar eclipse has not yet started, Jie Chen is curiously looking around with the donor's telescope, the donor is very enthusiastic to teach Jie Chen how to use it, the telescope works well, and the distant landscapes in the town can be seen clearly. After a while, Jie An saw Jie Ao coming from the direction of the temple from a distance, so he adjusted the focus of the binoculars a little further. Although Jie Ao in the lens was far away, he was very clear.

Jie Ao walked towards the office building, and suddenly stopped at the edge of a field, with his head down, wondering what he was thinking.Jiechen is a little strange, because there is a field in front of Jieao, you only need to walk along the middle of the field, and you can save a lot of travel, I don’t know why Jieao stopped suddenly. Jie Ao looked at it for a while, and suddenly stopped moving forward, but walked sideways along the edge of the field.Jie Chen doesn't know what Jie Ao intends to do.Jie Ao and I often walk this field ridge, so it is reasonable to not know that the road along the middle is the shortest.

Jie Chen stared at Jie Ao with binoculars, he walked farther and farther, until he circled the edge of the field, turned behind several houses, and suddenly disappeared. Jie An waited for quite a while before seeing Jie Ao climbed to the top of the building, and was about to ask Jie Ao why he went the wrong way just now, but the solar eclipse had already begun, so he suppressed the question. When returning to the temple after watching the solar eclipse, passing the field, Jie Ao suddenly said that it might rain today, let’s put away the clothes when we go back later. Jie Chen asked him why, Jie Ao said, when he came here just now, he saw many ants queuing up to move on the ridge of the field, which was a bit like a harbinger of rain.

Suddenly he understood the reason why Jie Ao went the wrong way just now, it turned out to be to avoid those ants. We often can't understand other people's words and actions, thinking that it must be wrong, but in fact, if we can understand more, we can understand others' behavior more. Mistakes may not necessarily come from the incorrect thinking of others, but may also be due to our own ignorance.
