Puchan Temple, also known as 'Baofu Temple', is located under Baofu Peak on the edge of Heshui District in Jiuquan East City. It was first built in the Tang Dynasty (636 AD) and has gone through 1376 years of ups and downs. As the saying goes, 'Thousands of years of struggle and the stars have changed, the ancient temple has After several vicissitudes of life, it is now the number one ancient temple in the six provinces of East China.
Baofu Peak, 333 meters high, is famous for a huge natural stone Buddha at the foot of the mountain. This stone Buddha is 56 meters high and occupies one-sixth of Baofu Peak. From a distance, it looks like a mountain peak is hugging the Buddha. Although the Buddha is It is not as exquisite as artificial carving, but it is also lifelike and can be called a miracle. No matter who sees this stone Buddha, they will sigh, nature is really magical and uncanny workmanship.
The target Xiao Feng chose today is the national 5a-level scenic spot and world cultural heritage, Puchan Temple.
"Legend has it that Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, strongly supported the construction of Puchan Temple at that time. In 626, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Revolution and ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. Ten years later, in 636, he ordered the construction of Baofu Temple. Oh, it was Puchan Temple. After 6 years and 6 months, Puchan Temple was officially completed and the mountain gate was opened. Li Shimin personally came to nominate the temple and stayed in Puchan Temple for several days before returning to Beijing. With Li Shimin's support, Puchan Temple became famous all over the world. Temple, even comparable to the 'Shaolin Temple',"
Xiao Feng pointed to the gate of Puchan Temple and explained the origin of Puchan Temple to everyone.
"Real or fake, a thousand-year-old ancient temple," Huo Wu was a little disapproving.
Xiao Feng smiled and turned to look at the big stone Buddha in the east. A sense of tranquility arose in his heart. He had the illusion that the big Buddha was smiling at him, very kindly.
"Let's go see the Big Buddha first, or go into the temple to play," Ding Ding said excitedly.
Although most of the people who came were from Jiuquan, almost all of them were atheists and had never been to Puchan Temple before, so they all looked at Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng grinned: "Look at me, I've never been here before~ Let's go to the temple first and feel the charm and charm of the thousand-year-old temple." With that, he walked towards the temple gate first.
Everyone chatted and followed Xiao Feng into Puchan Temple. They would follow wherever Xiao Feng went. However, with so many beauties joining in, it also attracted the attention of many tourists. .
Today is the day for offering incense. All the local Buddhist believers in Jiuquan come to offer incense to pray for peace, wealth and marriage. In addition, this is a 5a scenic spot, so there are more foreign tourists coming to visit. The temple is crowded with people and the incense is flourishing.
As soon as everyone entered the temple gate, they saw a large bronze incense burner as tall as a person in front of them. It was filled with burning incense, giving the entire front yard a strange fragrance.
"Are you interested in burning incense?" Xiao Feng looked at everyone. Everyone except Lin Lin shook their heads.
"Then you guys play nearby first, while Lin Lin and I go to burn incense," Xiao Feng took Lin Lin's hand and the two of them walked to the small shop selling incense nearby.
What surprised Xiao Feng was that the people running these small shops were all monks. In other temples, including Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, small shops were outsourced to outsiders. Unexpectedly, here, everything was run by monks.
"Amitabha, what do you want from the donor?" The monk was handsome, about 24 or 25 years old, and very polite.
"If you want to buy incense, put it there," Xiao Feng turned back and pointed at the bronze incense burner and said with a smile.
"Donor, let me introduce it to you," the monk said, introducing several kinds of incense that are one meter to one and a half meters long.
Xiao Feng shook his head: "It's too short. Is there a longer one?"
"You want to get the upper hand, wait a moment," the monk smiled, turned around and entered the inner room.
Xiao Feng always felt that the monk's smile was a little weird, and just as he was muttering, he saw the monk bring out an incense stick that was 3 meters long and 20 centimeters in diameter. It was called the giant of incense.
"Donor, how about this one?" the monk patted the incense in his hand.
The corner of Xiao Feng's mouth twitched, he glanced at the dumbfounded Lin Lin next to him, and gritted his teeth: "That's it, how much does it cost?"
"1888 yuan," the monk put the incense on the counter: "Seeing that you devote yourself to worshiping Buddha, I will give you a cheaper price, 1666 yuan, how about"
Xiao Feng thought for a moment and nodded without counter-offering: "Okay," he said, taking out a small pile of money from his bag and handing it to the monk.
The monk put his hands together and saluted: "Donor, Buddha will bless you,"
"I don't believe in Buddhism, I only believe in myself," Xiao Feng said, put the incense on his shoulder, took Lin Lin's hand and went out.
Xiao Feng carried this giant stick, which attracted a lot of eyebrows and exclamations all around. What made him laugh the most was that he heard a foreign girl shouting in English: "Oh my god, it's such a big stick." ,I like".
Lin Lin was a little embarrassed to be stared at by so many people: "Brother Feng, this one is too big,"
"Haha, since I'm here to play, let's have fun. I'll just go to the temple and burn a stick of incense for peace of mind," Xiao Feng said, putting the incense into the oil basin next to the bronze incense burner.
About three minutes later, the Big Mac ignited a flame, and Xiao Feng pulled it out from the oil basin. The flame went out, leaving only a red incense head.
Xiao Feng and Lin Lin held up the Big Mac together and inserted it into the bronze incense burner. It was more than twice as tall as other incense sticks and stood out like a flock of chickens.
"Brother Feng just likes to be in the limelight," Huo Tian looked at Xiao Feng next to the incense burner and said to several people with a smile.
"Hey, Tian, why haven't I seen Xiaoyu recently? Why has he gone?" Feng Long asked doubtfully.
"He, hey, went to study abroad," Huo Tian Xie smiled.
"For studying abroad, uh, the underworld requires going abroad for further study," Feng Long was speechless.
Just as Huo Tian was about to say something, Xiao Feng pulled Lin Lin over: "How about it? It cost me 1,666 yuan."
"Awesome," Lin Mo looked at the taller Big Mac and gave a thumbs up.
Xiao Feng led everyone to visit the front hall again, and finally followed the flow of people to the back. It is worth mentioning that every time she saw a Buddha or a Bodhisattva, Lin Lin would worship devoutly and pray in a low voice. What are you wearing?
Along the way, Feng Long's female companion, an A-list female star, wore a pair of sunglasses and walked evasively for fear of being recognized.
Looking at Liu Liang again, she is also wearing big sunglasses, but she is very elegant. Occasionally when someone recognizes her, she will say hello with a smile, or take a photo with her, etc., but there is no confusion.
To be honest, Xiao Feng is not interested in that female star. Damn, isn't she just an actress? Why pretend? I'll bring my cousin here some other day and let you see the popularity of Goddess Murong. Damn.
"Dalong, where did you get this girl?" Xiao Feng approached Feng Long and asked in a low voice.
Feng Long glanced at the female star and grinned: "Brother Feng, it's okay. Hey, I just signed her back. Brother Feng likes her. I'll give her to you."
Xiao Feng shook his head: "Not interested,"
"I haven't used it yet, I'm going to use it tonight," Feng Long smiled.
"A gentleman never takes what others like," Xiao Feng patted Feng Long on the shoulder and walked towards Lin Lin and other beauties.
"Lin Lin, what are you looking at?" Xiao Feng walked over, put one hand on Lin Lin's shoulder and the other on Huo Wu's shoulder, and asked with a smile.
Lin Lin pointed at the sign: "Brother Feng, you are looking at the 'Three Life Stones',"
"Sansheng Stone, haha, it's interesting. Let's go and take a look," Xiao Feng said, saying hello, and walked towards the Sansheng Stone.
Xiao Feng and others followed the instructions and found the so-called Sansheng Stone on a small slope after crossing a small river.
The Sansheng Stone is reddish brown all over, with three big Chinese characters of dragons and phoenixes engraved on it. Next to the Sansheng Stone, there is a stone tablet with the legend about the Sansheng Stone written on it.
'Legend has it that there is a road in this world called "Huangquan Road" and a river called "Wangchuan River". There is a "Naihe Bridge" on the "Wangchuan River". At the end of the bridge, there is a bright red stone. It's called "Three Lives Stone".
It is said that as long as lovers of love carve two people's names on this "Three Lives Stone", they can be "destined for three lives" and they can be together for three lives.
Mengpo soup is boiled with water from the Wangchuan River. After drinking Mengpo soup, you will forget your past life, this life, and the next life... But if you carve the names of lovers on the Sansheng Stone, they will never forget each other.'
When Xiao Feng went to Lingyin Temple before, he saw the Sansheng Stone there and knew some legends. Now, he naturally had to show off, including passing by the "Western Heaven", the story of Monk Yuanze and Li Yuan, etc.
Especially some girls, listening to the legend of the 'Three Life Stones' told by Xiao Feng, not only had their eyes wet, but Lin Lin and others cried. Xiao Feng was not surprised. What surprised him was that Han Shuang also had red eyes. It was really strange. How strange.
I have to say that the scenery of Puchan Temple is really good. Even Feng Long Huotian and others gradually became obsessed with it. Everyone milled around and an hour passed like this.
"You go first, let's smoke a cigarette outside and take a rest," Xiao Feng pointed to a large hall in front and said to Lin Lin and the other girls.
After the girls left together, Xiao Feng and others found a stone bench to sit on, took out their cigarettes, passed them around, and started puffing away.
"Brother Feng, I just heard from A Tian that Xiao Yu went to study abroad," Feng Long asked doubtfully.
Xiao Feng nodded and smiled: "Well, I went out to study, but what I learned was about killing people."
"Uh, let me tell you," Feng Long suddenly smiled.
"Dalong, how is your father lately?"
"He has become fond of fishing recently. He drives his yacht to go fishing on the sea all day long. Most of the business is left to me to take care of. He only occasionally goes to the film and television city to visit,"
Xiao Feng smiled: "Haha, you are in charge of the Feng family, I have to call you Master Feng,"
"Forget it, Brother Feng, don't make fun of me," Feng Long waved his hand and said.
Several men were chatting when Xiao Feng's cell phone rang.
"Hello,"
"Brother Feng, come here quickly, something happened," Lin Lin's voice was a little urgent.
Xiao Feng frowned: "Okay, we'll be there right away." He hung up the phone and murmured in his mind, could it be them? He didn't bother to think too much and said to several men: "Stop sitting there, something happened over there," he said After that, let’s walk quickly towards the main hall.
