The Xuanmiaoguan area is the center of the ancient city of Suzhou. The alley behind it is called Cause and Effect Lane, and across the front of the Guanmen is Guanqian Street. In ancient times, this place was equivalent to today's citizen activity square, but it was formed spontaneously, and the surrounding area was bustling with people.
, there are many shops. Now it has been planned as a tourist shopping pedestrian street, and many century-old famous stores have also reopened here. It is a good place for shopping.
As a tourist attraction, Xuanmiao Temple has a feature similar to Shantang Street. It does not have an overall outer wall. The area between the main hall and the side halls is completely open. It is part of this tourist pedestrian street, and there is no need to walk in.
You need to buy a ticket. There are also tickets for Xuanmiao Temple, which cost ten yuan each. Sanqing Hall, Caishen Hall, Wenchang Hall, Guanyin (Cihang) Hall, Shouxing Hall and other places require tickets to enter.
Liu Shujun took Cheng Tianle to visit Xuanmiao Temple. Cheng Tianle saw that the Sanqing Hall was surrounded by a circle of iron railings. He also saw that Liu Shujun had a layer of sweat on his forehead and his face was slightly red, which was pretty and attractive. He also saw
I felt uncomfortable letting this girl accompany me shopping on a hot day, so I kindly said, "Let's go to the Sanqing Palace and have a look. It should be quite cool there!"
What he said is true. Most of the ancient temples were built for reasons that may not be clear to future generations. Depending on their origins, they are not necessarily located in the so-called Feng Shui treasured places, but they are usually located in cool or shady places.
Even if you go there on a hot day, you will feel significantly cooler than other places. Many fake temples and new Taoist temples built in modern tourist scenic spots may have lost a lot of elegance in their architectural structure, or they may not have a real atmosphere of incense inheritance.
What's more important is that the Feng Shui of the location was not right, and it didn't feel that way.
Today's Xuanmiao Temple complex is scattered among the commercial pedestrian streets, but the Sanqing Hall is still an ancient palace from the Song Dynasty, and it is still built on the original foundation of the Jin Dynasty. Although Cheng Tianle did not understand the mystery of this, his keen perception could naturally
He felt that after entering the iron railing and entering Sanqing Hall, it felt much cooler than outside. Moreover, he kindly wanted to "treat" him, but when he was about to run away, they were still shopping with him, and he wanted to
If you invite him to dinner, you have to buy a few tickets to visit the scenic spots. A ticket costs ten yuan, which is thirty yuan for three people. He can still afford this money.
Cheng Tianle brought a thousand cash with him when he came. When he arrived in Suzhou, he spent 46 yuan and 90 cents on a treat for noodles in a century-old shop. He spent 800 yuan on a painting and still had 150 yuan left in his pocket.
It's a lot, and I haven't spent a penny in more than a month. In fact, Cheng Tianle is not stingy. He is usually very generous in front of his friends, but his ability to be generous is limited.
Liu Shujun had a bit of a misunderstanding, or she was just used to it. She took Cheng Tianle's arm and said, "Why go there and spend that wasted money? Xuanmiao Temple is open, you can see everything outside, and there is nothing good to see inside the main hall.
They are all modern and newly built buildings, just to deceive tourists! I have been here many times, but the well in front of the main hall is still an antique, which is interesting, but you can see it without buying a ticket, and the rest is not interesting. "
Since she said so, there is really no need to buy a ticket to go in. Cheng Tianle followed Liu Shujun to see the ancient well. This is a well from the Five Dynasties. It is right next to the iron railing outside Sanqing Hall. You can see clearly by holding the railing.
Chu. Maybe the groundwater level in modern times is higher than that in the Five Dynasties. This ancient well was dug when later generations rebuilt the Xuanmiao Temple. A small pool was built around the well. The round wellhead is already under the water, and there are still people in the pool.
I put in a few koi carps.
Outside the iron railing, I watched several koi carps swimming around above the entrance of the ancient well. Cheng Tianle suddenly swayed. If he hadn't grabbed the iron railing, he almost lost his balance. He looked like he was dizzy and suffering from heatstroke. Liu Shujun
He asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Cheng Tianle stretched out his hand to rub his temples and gasped: "No, I'm fine. This ancient well is indeed worth seeing."
Liu Shujun held his arm and said, "There are many people here and it's crowded. Let's go to the shade of a tree to rest for a while."
What happened to Cheng Tianle just now? The entrance of the ancient well was submerged under the water, and he couldn't see clearly through the iron railings. Most people would forget it, but Cheng Tianle had "magic power" in him, so he immediately concentrated on entering and extended his consciousness to check
Explore the vividness of all things. According to the "experience" in the classroom of the MLM gang, not only can you clearly sense the ancient well, but you can also roughly "see" the Sanqing Hall, which cannot be entered without buying a ticket.
At this moment, he was unlucky! The water surface had the power to block his spiritual consciousness, as if an invisible force bounced into his mind, but there was an opposite sucking force at the wellhead, which seemed to be able to suck his spiritual consciousness away.
It felt like it was pulled in and minced, and the feeling at this moment was extremely uncomfortable. If it was just this well, it happened that the scope of Cheng Tianle's divine consciousness was larger, including the Sanqing Hall on the high stone foundation in front, and
There was an indescribable shocking force that almost made him lose his consciousness, and his mind seemed to have received a huge impact, and he suddenly felt dizzy.
Cheng Tianle accidentally entered the strange state of "listening with the curtain behind the curtain, keeping watch on the outside" in the big classroom of the MLM gang. The environment there was dirty and messy, and most of the people around him were in a chaotic and excited state.
His state and spirit are also very abnormal. His consciousness is greatly disturbed in this environment. It is definitely not a good place for cultivation. Even "masters" like Shen Sibao, who Cheng Tianle can't figure out, feel that MLM gangs
It is not a place to stay for a long time, let alone a place to practice. In other words, people like Bai Shaoliu can calmly watch, but his cultivation realm is far beyond what Cheng Tianle can understand now.
It's a pity that "Rat" doesn't know this at all, and Cheng Tianle doesn't know it either. Who with normal nerves can go there to meditate and practice? Real monks will look for and choose a blessed place filled with spiritual energy. But everything has two sides, in
Although it is extremely difficult to enter the country to practice in that environment, it is simply asking for trouble, but if you can enter safely and condense your spiritual consciousness, the speed of exploring the pass without realizing it will be extremely fast. Because for a beginner,
Either it is impossible to enter the country, or you will be subject to great disturbances after entering the country, which is also a test of your spiritual consciousness.
Therefore, after Cheng Tianle mastered the first step of the demon cultivation technique, compared with monks from various sects in the world who had the same level of cultivation, his spiritual consciousness was far from strong, but it was extremely clear. In layman's terms, he had "extremely strong ability to resist interference."
But one thing is very fatal. His cultivation was completely by mistake. Not only did it come from the method of demon cultivation, but he also did not have complete guidance from his master. He was not clear about many things that should be paid attention to and even taboos.
Xuanmiao Temple is now an attraction in the commercial tourist area and is no longer a serious Taoist practice place. However, its location is the key point of Feng Shui in the ancient city of Suzhou. The building itself embodies the spiritual hub of earth energy. This Sanqing Hall is also
A genuine ancient temple for spiritual practice is not a tourist attraction for modern new practitioners to fool people as Liu Shujun said. In such a place, you cannot use your spiritual consciousness to investigate at will, and even if you do, you will be greatly disturbed. The correct approach for ordinary monks is to restrain their spiritual consciousness.
To experience it with your consciousness, just like Chengtian Leren just now felt that it was cool inside the Sanqing Hall even though he was outside. If you overcome the interference and forcefully explore, your spiritual consciousness will be greatly impacted.
Ordinary monks, even if they are just starting out, will still have teachers to give them guidance. Let alone in front of ancient temples such as Xuanmiao Temple Sanqing Hall, even if they use their spiritual sense to detect the environment under normal circumstances, they will just sweep through and try not to be touched. The focus is just on induction.
Experience, how can Cheng Tianle be so stupid? But Cheng Tianle's spiritual consciousness is very clear, and the impact he receives is even greater. To use a common saying, his "anti-interference ability" is very strong when entering the country, but his "anti-impact ability" is very strong.
"But he was so weak that he almost fell down!"
After tasting the power, Cheng Tianle was still frightened, and he no longer dared to use the "magic power" indiscriminately. He secretly thought in his heart that the Sanqing Palace was really famous, and it was not as simple as Liu Shujun said.
When walking back, Cheng Tianle suddenly stopped dead in his tracks, looking straight at a person not far away. Liu Shujun asked: "What's wrong? I feel really uncomfortable and can't walk anymore?...
What are you looking at?"
Cheng Tianle smiled: "I saw an acquaintance."
Yu Fei from behind was surprised and said: "Do you have any acquaintances in Suzhou? Why haven't you heard of them?"
Cheng Tianle explained: "I know him, but he doesn't know me! Look at that person over there, do you have any impressions? When I arrived in Suzhou on the first day, we had dinner on Shantang Street, and there was a TV playing in the hotel.
It was a treasure appraisal program. A treasure holder took a modern painting and said it was an ancient painting from the Tang Dynasty. He went on stage and asked experts to identify it. The scene made everyone laugh!"
Yu Fei replied: "That's what happened. Later you saw that painting when you were shopping and bought it for 800 yuan. Afterwards, I paid for your living expenses for more than a month."
Cheng Tianle turned around and said: "It's not like I haven't listened to the company's business class. I am a new friend and you are my introducer. According to the company's regulations, you should pay for my living expenses. If you don't want to pay,
Can you please not bring me here? I think you called me at the beginning, but you agreed that the company would take care of food and housing, and I didn’t rely on you!"
Liu Shujun hurriedly interrupted: "Cheng Tianle, don't misunderstand! Manager Yu said this with good intentions. He wants to urge you to make progress as soon as possible. He is going to treat us to dinner today at noon...Who did you see? With that TV
What does the show have to do with it?”
Cheng Tianle quietly pointed out: "Look at that person. He is wearing a black T-shirt. He looks fair and clean. Isn't he the treasure holder on TV that day?"
After he reminded him like this, Liu Shujun also recognized him and said with a smile: "Hey, it's really him! Why did I see him here? What a coincidence! I remember his surname was Li, and he was the No. 8 holder on TV.
Treasurer Mr. Li, he also comes to visit Xuanmiao Temple?"
Chengtian laughed happily and said: "That program was recorded in Suzhou. He should live in Suzhou. What's so strange about visiting Xuanmiao Temple? It seems that he also came with his friends. What a fate!"
He walked past the man and sat under the shade of an ancient tree not far away for a while, watching the man having a silly laugh.
