昔、ある大きなお寺にたくさんの小僧がいました。
Once upon a time, there were many little monks at a big temple.
。
There was a very mischievous little monk among them.
。
One day, the head priest scolded the little monk and decided to expel him from the temple.
。
After that, the chief priest said, Under the bamboo is better than at the base of a big tree, and the veranda is better than inside the room.
。
The young monk left the temple and began to walk.
。
Suddenly, it started pouring rain.
。
The little monk tried to stay under the big tree, but remembered the head priests words and went to the bamboo grove.
。
At that moment, a loud thunderclap echoed and lightning struck a tree.
。
Thanks to that, the boy was able to escape danger.
。
You kept walking and eventually arrived at a mountain village.
。
Since it was getting late at night, he decided to stay at the empty temple.
。
The young apprentice remembered the head priests words and slept on the veranda.
。
At midnight, he woke up and looked inside the temple, where he saw a thin woman and a square-faced demon talking.
。
When the square-faced demon left, a round-faced demon appeared.
。
After the round-faced demon had left, only the thin woman remained.
。
A little monk entered the temple and asked, Who are you?
。
The woman answered, “I am the spirit of the pestle.”
。
The square represents the soul of the ichibugin one-bu silver coin, and the circle represents the soul of the ichimon-sen one-mon coin.
。
The next morning, the woman had disappeared, leaving behind only the old pestle.
。
The young monk and the villagers found an ichibugin silver coin and an ichimon copper coin at the temple.
。
After that, they burn the pestle and offer prayers.
。
After that, the little monk became a respected priest and became the head of the temple.
