When I stepped into the temple gate and entered the temple late at night, I didn't hear the sound of burning the sound of worship, saw no clouds of incense, and didn't smell the slightest scent of incense candles.
In the silence, bursts of floral fragrance floated, and Xie Fu smiled and said: "Magnolia, Suoluo is in bloom, Wutong, Bodhi leaves are clear, and temples are in early spring."
Visiting the temple late at night is a unique experience. Without realizing it, Mr. Xie kept pace and his mind wandered to the whole temple with the fragrance of flowers and leaves.
Suddenly I bumped into a rock, and I saw a big rock blocking the middle of the path under the dim moonlight.
I don’t know who is responsible for the prank. I can still see clearly during the day, but if my vision is unclear at night, I will hit someone with a black nose and a swollen face.
So he moved the stone aside.
He looked up and found that Cui Sanfei had already followed the monk away, so he quickened his pace and followed him.
When we arrived at a courtyard, we heard the sound of beating wooden fish and chanting sutras.
There were three rooms on one side, and the sound came from the middle room. There were no lights in the room, so only the sound was heard but no shadow was seen.
The monk didn't bother him and led Xie and Fu directly into the wing room on the left, lit the oil lamp and left...
The fifth princess and Shaluo also boarded the South Wutai. The air suddenly became damp and heavy, and it rained softly, melancholy, lightly and quietly in the mountains.
The fifth princess was already sweating profusely from walking, but the rain wet her cheeks, making her even more irritable for no reason.
The rain fell, and the clear moon earlier became hazy and desolate under the rain and mist.
The fifth princess only felt that her body and mind were surrounded by the atmosphere, and she didn't know where to go.
Stepping directly on the stone steps, the two of them realized that they were approaching the mountain gate. After walking more than ten steps, they heard a burst of light but urgent footsteps.
The two women stopped and wondered who was coming in the middle of the night.
A gleam of light came into view, like a door opening from the fog, but it turned out to be a bald man.
A monk stood in front of him, his face filled with joy.
Shaluo said first: "Master, we are here to ask Master Daosheng to give us sutras."
"Master has been staying for three days and two nights. Two female donors, please."
The two girls looked surprised and wanted to ask something. The monk had already turned around to lead the way.
The two followed, and Shaluo asked aloud: "Little master, does Master Daosheng know that we are coming?"
"The young monk doesn't know."
Shaluo asked a few more questions, but the monks cherished their words as if they were gold, and couldn't ask anything.
After entering the temple and walking for a while, the monk took the initiative to speak for the first time: "There is a big stone in the center of the path ahead. I need to walk aside. The two female donors follow my steps to avoid hitting the stone."
Sara asked in confusion: "Why do you put a stone in the middle of the path to block the way?"
"The female donor doesn't know something. This stone is called the Sutra Listening Stone. She has been listening to sutras here for three hundred years and has not changed despite the weather. She is the oldest and most senior disciple in the temple."
Shaluo sneered: "You have the highest seniority, what should you call me, little master?"
The monk smiled, turned around and said: "It's time to go aside. The two female donors should follow my pace."
The man turned back to talk to the two women, but did not stop. He had walked this road thousands of times, and it was engraved in his bones that he should take a detour after taking a certain number of steps.
The fifth princess followed the instructions, but Shaluo looked curiously. She was a master of martial arts, and her hearing and eyes were unusually sharp. She saw that the path was clear, and there was no big stone blocking the way.
Immediately, he was alert: "Where is the stone? Young master, what is your intention in pretending to be a ghost?"
"Could it be that the female donor has an eye problem? There's a big stone there."
As the monk spoke, he pointed toward the center of the path and exclaimed: "Grand Master! Where is Grand Master!"
Shaluo looked at the monk coldly and looked around nervously, trying to judge whether he was really nervous or just pretending.
"Tai Shizu, could it be that you have to go to the Taoist Immortal..."
Although there was only a faint moonlight, it was as clear as day in Shaluo's eagle eyes. Looking around the whole courtyard, he saw a particularly large stone in the corner. He pointed with his hand: "Is that your Grand Master?"
The monk looked over and breathed a sigh of relief: "Grand Master Tai, why did you come here?"
Sha Luo said proudly: "Your Grand Master must have known that a distinguished guest was coming tonight, so he stepped aside."
The monk wondered: "Dignified guest?"
Shaluo thought to herself, my fifth princess is a goddess of auspiciousness and has the same divine status, but she is not just an honored guest. When the stubborn Grand Master like you sees her, she will naturally give way to her.
The monk said: "The donor must have seen the big stone blocking the road, so he moved Taishizu to the corner. It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly to the donor..."
The two girls were in awe, as there was actually someone knocking on the mountain gate like them at this point.
Shaluo asked deliberately: "Little master, are you crazy? Who else will arrive at this point? Could it be that they are remembering what happened during the day as tonight's thing?"
The monk smiled: "Aren't the two female donors here just now?"
As he spoke, he pushed the big stone with both hands. This big stone weighed no more than a thousand kilograms. No matter how hard the monk exerted his strength, the big stone did not move at all. He breathed heavily, "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
Shaluo asked with a smile: "Is it possible that besides us, someone else is here?"
The monk had no time to respond and just kept saying "Uh-huh-huh". In this moment, sweat was pouring down on his forehead.
Shaluo walked over and gently stretched out her hand, and the thousand-jin boulder flew down to the center of the path.
The monk was startled and walked quickly to the big stone. He touched it here and there, as if he was afraid that it would crack.
Shaluo followed up and asked: "Little master, you haven't answered my question yet."
The monk knelt down, touched the stone, examined it carefully, and said, "Yes."
The fifth princess said softly: "What a coincidence."
The monk smiled casually: "This is called telepathy."
The fifth princess asked: "Are you here to stay overnight?"
“I came here specially to listen to the scriptures.”
The fifth princess's heart trembled...
"Female donor, can you help me move my Grand Master to the front position?"
Shaluo raised her leg, and the monk quickly opened his hand to block it: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. The female donor, please don't hurt him. Just move her gently and slowly."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When you come to a courtyard, you can hear the sound of beating wooden fish and chanting sutras.
There were three rooms on one side, and the sound of chanting came from the dark room in the middle, but the lights were on in the room on the left, and the lights reflected a huge shadow.
The fifth princess stared at the shadow, curious about who he was and why he chose this day and this moment to listen to the scriptures.
Shaluo also looked at the shadow, leaned close to the ear of the fifth princess and laughed softly: "Looking at his body shape, he looks like a super fat man. He can't lose weight by listening to the sutras."
"Don't talk nonsense. If you can listen to the sutra with your back to the moon, you must be enlightened by wisdom and have a clear and pure nature."
"Two donors, please come this way."
The monk led the two people into the right wing and lit the lamp.
The fifth princess took the initiative to ask: "Little master, who is in the left compartment?"
"Young monk, you don't know either." The monk responded and left.
The fifth princess was sitting upright. When she saw Shaluo looking around, she said softly: "Shaluo, you also sit down and listen. Maybe you have some understanding and can help me understand my confusion after listening."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and concentrated his mind. Although the sound of chanting sutras was fast, the words fell clearly in the ears of the fifth princess, and the Brahma and Brahma were pure...
Separated by a wing, each listens to its own business without disturbing each other, only the sound of chanting sutras can be heard...
At the last hour before dawn, with a crack, the sound of banging stopped and the sound of chanting sutras also disappeared.
The fifth princess also woke up from a dream and opened her eyes. There were three ways to listen to the sutra: the first was to sit upright and observe the precepts, the second was to practice pure meditation, and the third was to open up and gain bodhicitta.
At this moment, the fifth princess's dark blue eyes were filled with doubts and she had no idea.
At this time, Shaluo exclaimed: "Fifth Princess, you are bleeding again!"
The fifth princess looked down and saw a pool of blood where she was sitting. She couldn't help complaining: "Why is it bleeding again? It has defiled the Holy Land of Shimen. Come and wipe it clean with a cloth."
The leno screamed, but the room was clean. There were only tables, chairs, and magic tools. There was nothing to wipe them with...
As the chanting stopped, Xie Fu also opened his eyes. His eyes were as bright and clear as his mind, and he said softly: "Everything is natural."
Cui Sanfei asked: "Brother, have you had an epiphany?"
Xie Fu asked: "So what if there is an epiphany?"
"Sudden enlightenment can relieve mental illness."
Xie Fu smiled: "The Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao. Even if you have a sudden enlightenment, you still need to persist for a long time before you can determine it." The mind is not cultivated in a short time, and the nature is not determined in a day.
"You and I are ordinary people. We cannot receive the influence of Fenyin Classics here every day. It can only relieve the temporary pain in our hearts."
This principle is just like water that can turn from turbid to clear, and also from clear to turbid. If you want to stay clear, you must always live in a clear place.
"Haha, even if it relieves the pain in my heart for a while, it's enough for you and me."
At this time, the monk opened the door and walked in. He thanked the master and saluted: "Thank you, Master Daosheng, for giving me the sutra. Can you introduce me to me, young master, so that I can thank you in person?"
The monk's face was calm: "The master has passed away and returned to the west."
The two of them were shocked when they heard this, and a legendary master left at this point!
The monk took out half of a wooden fish and said, "My ancestor had already made his last words, and I would like to give this thing to someone who is destined to do so."
Xie Fu took it: "Thank you very much."
Cui Sanfei glanced at it and asked, "Why is there only half one?"
Mr. Xie had read through the scriptures at Daming Temple in Yangzhou in the early days. His understanding was not comparable to that of Cui Sanfei. He patted Cui Sanfei on the shoulder and said, "Stop asking. If you ask clearly, you and I will become Buddhist monks."
Partly with the intention of cultivating a predestined relationship, they were fortunate enough to listen to Master Daosheng's last recitation tonight, all because of the word "destiny".
I think Master Daosheng hoped that his life-long study of Confucian classics would be passed down, but I don’t know if his conjecture is correct or not.
"Two donors, please."
After listening to the sutra, it’s time to see off the guests.
After walking out of the room, Xie Fu saw the light in the wing on the right and said, "Who lives in that wing?"
The monk responded: "Listeners."
"I didn't expect that someone like us would come to listen to the scriptures in the middle of the night. It's really fate. I wanted to meet and get to know each other."
Xie Fu said that he was about to go to get acquainted with him with great interest, but was stopped by the monk: "Please don't harass the guests of this temple who are listening to the scriptures."
Amituo Temple is the host, and they who come to listen to the scriptures are all guests. It is indeed inappropriate to meet guests with courtesy, and Amitao Temple will inevitably be suspected of poor hospitality.
It was a pity to have to say goodbye to someone so destined, and he didn't want to force anyone to do anything, so he suddenly had an idea: "I have something, please give it to me as a gift to show your fate."
The monk made a sound and nodded.
"Please wait a moment, little master."
Mr. Xie turned around and entered the room. He glanced around and saw that there was pen and ink on the table for guests to leave notes, but no paper was prepared.
Xie Fu took off his outer robe directly, and Cui Sanfei was confused: "Brother, what do you want to give as a gift?"
"It is a unique thing in the world. If we meet by chance one day, we will recognize each other immediately."
While he was talking, he had already taken off his silk clothes, spread out his inner clothes, and picked up a pen to write ink on the inner clothes.
Silk can also retain ink and last longer than paper, but few people have this luxury.
At this moment, Xie Fu was shirtless. Cui Sanfei saw the dense scars on his body for the first time, and his expression was extremely shocked. Brother...
Thank you Fu eloquently, with seven sentences and forty-nine words written in one go.
I blew a breath and shook my clothes, and the ink was dry.
When the ink passes, it prints without leaving any traces of water. This is skill.
Cui Sanfei came back to his senses and started thinking:
Get Taoyuan Cave by chance
Forgetting that the bells and drums stopped ringing
Enjoy the good news and experience the immortality
Zuo Wei Niu Di Xingren
And Jing Zhilang fights
Several poems and poems with musical instruments and images
Guan Tao Returns to Crown Huang Shaoqi
After Cui Sanfei finished reading, he asked in confusion: "Why are there only seven sentences?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Isn't it strange to have seven sentences? "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix" only has seven sentences."
"Brother, although I don't have any knowledge of literature, your poetry is hard to pronounce."
Just as Xie Fu was about to respond, the monk came outside to urge him: "Donor, are you ready? It's been half an hour."
"alright."
He handed the lining to the monk and said, "Please, young master, give this to the destined person next door."
The monk saw that Xie Fu was naked and recited the Buddha's name: "Anita Buddha."
The two women in the room were wondering what to use to wipe away the blood when they heard the monk knocking gently on the door.
The two women looked at each other and knew the rules. It was time to leave after listening to the sutra. The temple did not have the habit of keeping female guests overnight.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Shaluo walked over and opened a crack in the door, and the monk handed over a ball of white cloth: "Donor, this is..."
Shaluo was worried that she had nothing to wipe away the blood, so she reached out and took the cloth, and closed the door with a bang.
The monk shouted outside the room: "Donor, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"We'll talk about it later."
Shaluo came to the fifth princess with a cloth and said with a smile: "Isn't there something to wipe the blood stains with?"
The fifth princess said: "Then clean it up quickly, so as not to pollute the Holy Land of Shimen."
However, Zara was not impatient and took off the garland on her head. The outer edge of the garland was covered with thorns, and the cold light was like the tip of a dagger. It was difficult to identify it unless you got close.
This object is actually Shaluo's weapon, the Qiankun Ring, which is usually worn on the head as a headdress.
Holding a corner of the cloth, he drew the Qiankun Ring in his hand and cut two strips of cloth.
The fifth princess asked: "What are you doing?"
Shaluo responded: "Fifth princess, you are not allowed to wipe it and cover it. Are you letting the blood flow?"
The fifth princess blushed slightly. She had no experience at all. In fact, even experienced women would try to avoid going out during the monthly period because it was really troublesome.
Shaluo handed two pieces of cloth to the fifth princess: "This one for wiping, this one for wrapping. Just get used to it."
The fifth princess wrapped the cloth around her, and the leopard wiped away the blood.
The two of them were in a hurry to deal with the blood stains just now, but now they realized that what the monk had brought was a lining.
I saw there were writing on the inner garment. Even though it was stained with blood, I could still roughly make out the writing.
The fifth princess said softly: "What a handsome character."
Although she has been in Daguan Kingdom for twenty years, she has never been very interested in the culture of Dadong Kingdom. She was born in Beidi, and she feels more at home with the customs and culture of Beidi.
The ink of this word is like a green hill passing by, and the blood is like a red flower in full bloom, which is very delicate and beautiful.
