Three hundred and thirteen chapters, a thousand lotus mountain
Chapter 313, Thousand Lotus Mountain
Xie Xiaoxian's current job is not as "dangerous" as before, and it is not as tiring as before, regardless of day, night and holidays, but leisure is only relative. Although there are prescribed public holidays, it is difficult to take them. This time it is really
It was a blessing that her senior brother caught Zhang Renhe. She had just joined the task force, and the liaison and coordination work she was responsible for had ended. However, the task force still needed to deal with follow-up matters, so she took the opportunity to ask for a week's leave, including the first and last weekends.
It’s nine days, enough time to go out and have fun.
Xie Xiaoxian's mother's name is Du Ruoheng, whom You Fang met at the Luoyang Ancient Tomb Museum. She is a layperson who worships Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. She has been a Buddhist all her life and loves to travel. She is from Anshan, and Xie Xiaoxian also grew up in Anshan.
I was so old that I even lived with my mother in a local mountain temple. That was a long time ago.
In addition to accompanying Xie Xiaoxian back to Anshan to relax, You Fang also has other plans for this trip. It is the beginning of his planned tour, which is not only to appreciate the animistic realm of all things, but also to find the sword spirit Qin Yu. When Xie Xiaoxian returns,
After Beijing, he set off for Cangzhou to revisit the lotus pond and the iron lion, then to Jinan to visit Daming Lake to admire the small Canglang waves, and then to the Luoyang Ancient Tomb Museum. This was the journey of Qin Yu's appearance that year.
There were other things before that. He had never been to Liaodong. The White Mountains and Black Water Lingshu outside the pass had unique characteristics that needed to be experienced carefully. In addition, Zhang Renhe fell into the hands of the police inexplicably, and all the factions in the Fengmen could guess it.
It was Mr. Rand who did it. How could he let this person go after he had already spread the word? If he couldn't even take down a gangster, how could he deal with the Tang Dynasty Shang who was far away on the other side of the Pacific?
The Qiangong Sect was inevitably uneasy after hearing this, because Zhang Renhe was involved in some embarrassing past events in their sect. You Fang planned to visit the Qiangong Sect in Liaoning, both to appease and express gratitude. The clues about Zhang Renhe were first provided privately by the Qiangong Sect.
.But then again, it’s still unclear who will thank whom. You Fang used these human and material resources to actually accomplish what the Qian Gong Sect wanted to accomplish but failed to accomplish.
It may be different from many of the scenery that young wanderers have walked through. Anshan is not a place with beautiful scenery. For many times of the year, the atmosphere here seems a bit dirty. It is the largest steel industry city in Northeast China, and the headquarters of Anshan Iron and Steel Group is located there.
This is also one of the most important steel producing areas in China. The surrounding areas of Fushun, Panjin, and Benxi are rich in various minerals such as coal, iron, and oil.
Anshan is also very rich in mineral resources, producing a variety of ores including iron, magnesite and other ores. The Xiuyan Manchu Autonomous County area within the territory is also one of the largest jade producing areas in my country. The jade produced here is called Xiuyan jade. The secret method is also produced here Of course, the variety and output of crystals are far less than those in the mountainous areas on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi where Songhe Valley is located. Crystals do not exist wherever there are ores, and not all crystals have secret crystals. unique physical properties.
However, several types of special secret crystals are produced here, which are difficult to see elsewhere. Although the quality of Xiuyan jade is not very good compared with traditional Hetian jade, Lantian jade, and Kunlun jade, the accumulation of humanistic connotations is also slightly insufficient.
However, some special jade can also be used as materials for processing arcane artifacts. The outer hall of the Lian Gong Sect is located in Xiuyan County. Firstly, it is convenient for communication with various sects in the world, secondly, it is convenient for mining business, and thirdly, it is convenient for collecting secret arts.
Utensils - these are the responsibilities of the outer hall.
The secret method of piercing the bow of the Lian Gong Sect requires the cooperation of several secret crystal stones that are special to this place, so that it can exert its greatest effect during operation. As for its inner hall, it is located at the junction of Jilin and Liaoning Province, in the mountains of the Xiaoxing'an Mountains.
It is also the place where the sect's Taoist temple has been passed down from generation to generation. Disciples of all generations have nourished the body and spirit, understood the spiritual core, and practiced in retreat. The transportation is not convenient.
When You Fang came to Anshan, he was not in a hurry to pay homage to the Qiangong Sect and did not inform them. He accompanied Xie Xiaoxian where he lived when he was a child and visited all the places he visited. Since he was traveling, of course he had to go about four miles southeast of Anshan.
Thousand Lotus Mountain ten miles away.
This mountain is said to have a collection of peaks like thousands of lotuses standing on the ground. Visitors who have been to Meiling in Nanchang can appreciate the many peaks. Meiling is said to have ninety-nine peaks with different styles, and this mountain has a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine peaks.
If one is missing, the number becomes thousands. Since ancient times, it has been called Qianduo Lotus Mountain, or Qianshan for short. A generation of earth masters have traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers, and the name of this mountain is really interesting. Today's tourists finally climbed to the top of this "Thousand Mountains".
Qianshan has been a cave outside the pass since ancient times, a Buddhist and Taoist scenic spot, but its development as a scenic spot is still a contemporary matter. The two characters "Qianshan" on the main entrance of the scenic spot were written by contemporary layman Zhao Puchu, and the couplets on both sides of the main entrance "Nanhai"
"Eight Thousand Roads, the First Mountain in Liaodong" is a poem inscribed by the contemporary calligrapher Qi Gong on Ming Dynasty.
You Fang and Xie Xiaoxian entered the mountain through the archway. Xie Xiaoxian even muttered: "When I was a child, there seemed to be no entrance fees here." You Fang held her arm and smiled without saying a word.
There is a "line of sky" among the thousands of mountains, which runs through the huge mountain rocks. You can see through the opposite side at a glance, but it feels like the two mountains will squeeze people into meat patties when they are combined, and it is impossible to get through the narrow place. In fact, this is just
There is an illusion that all the fat people who came here have passed away. This illusion is not only due to visual or psychological reasons. The Earth Qi Lingshu is indeed very special. It opens strangely in the integrated mountain.
A crack separated the space, and You Fang naturally thought of the "Bow Threading Technique" secretly taught by the Leading Gong Sect.
The Guan Gong Jue of the Lian Gong Sect and the Dingshan Jue of the Wo Niu Sect should come from the same source, but they are two completely different mysteries in the characteristics of Feng Shui Ling Shu.
The operation of the "Shadow of the Crossing Bow" is very powerful. It can hurt people and break magic. It is different from the general method of nourishing the body and spirit. It is a secret method that transfers the characteristics of the spiritual axis of the Feng Shui Bureau. It is similar to the Xiaosha Jue of the Xiaosha Sect.
But it is different. You can specifically repair a dilapidated Feng Shui bureau. Of course, you can also destroy an intact Feng Shui bureau. This is the beauty of moving the spiritual pivot. Therefore, people with a gloomy mind may not be suitable for practice. It is very easy to abandon the basic and pursue the last.
The fierce and insidious evil intention of piercing the bow has lost its original intention of nourishing the body and soul and forgetting the mountains and rivers.
The tourists have not yet visited the Qiangong Sect. When they came to Qianduo Lotus Mountain, the first thing they thought of was the secret properties of the Qianduo Lianhua Secret Technique. While talking with Xie Xiaoxian about the scenery here, the general scenic area follows the tourist route, and it only takes one day to see the flowers.
, even if it is a large scenic spot, according to the tour group's itinerary, it can only be visited in two or three days at most. However, if you really want to savor the scenery, this time is certainly not enough.
There is a saying that a tour guide describes today's so-called tourists: "Sleep when you get on the bus, pee when you get off the bus, take pictures when you get to the scenic spots, and don't look at anything after taking the pictures." But You Fang Xingyou is naturally different, he usually doesn't even have a camera.
We don’t follow the general travel route, we just follow the scenery of Lingshu. Thousand Lotus Mountain is such a big place. If you want to bring Lingshu into the country and absorb your thoughts, you only need to walk one or two days on the mountain.
The sky is not enough.
Xie Xiaoxian, who has grown up here since childhood, and a young wanderer who can sense the spirituality of mountains and rivers, should be the best pair for mountain tours.
They walked and talked all the way. Xie Xiaoxian frowned and said: "I have heard since I was a child that there are nine hundred and ninety-nine peaks here, like thousands of red lotus terraces. Where is the missing peak?"
You Fang smiled and said: "The natural numbers of heaven and earth are not complete, and there is always a glimmer of regret. We need to seek perfection in our hearts. When you and I enter this mountain, where do you think that peak is? If people don't know how to taste it, all the vivid scenery will be in vain.
"
Xie Xiaoxian nudged him gently with her elbow: "You are really thick-skinned. What you say makes a mountain come true. Are you a mountain beyond the nine hundred and ninety-nine peaks?"
You Fang said with a smile: "I may not be, and I may not be, it just depends on whether you have him in your eyes? You may not be, and I may not not, it just depends on whether there is a fairy in my heart?... When you are alive, it is as if you are here.
Searching in thousands of mountains, where the regret lies is also where the interest lies.”
Xie Xiaoxian glared: "Is there any?"
You Fang nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes, there is a little fairy surrounded by nine hundred and ninety-nine lotus flowers."
Xie Xiaoxian then lowered his head with satisfaction and sighed softly: "When you said this, it reminded me of my childhood. When I was a child, I liked to read novels and comics. It was often a long wait, and sometimes I would buy them for several years.
The more books you want, the more so, and the stronger the feeling of happiness will be when you buy the book you want."
You Fang asked: "Oh, what kind of comic books do you collect? Give me an example."
Xie Xiaoxian whispered: "Saint Seiya..."
You Fang chuckled: "So you had these hobbies."
Xie Xiaoxian asked: "What about you, what extracurricular books did you read when you were in school?"
You Fang replied without thinking: "Looking for Mountains, Eliminating Sand, Dingshan, Penetrating Bow, Shaking the Dragon, Heavenly Jade, Twelve Staff Techniques..."
Xie Xiaoxian interrupted him and said, "I'm not asking about Feng Shui books, but the ones that normal children read."
You Fang: "Let me think about it, the countryside is not that fashionable. All I can find in the village are some old-fashioned villain books, such as "Qin Qiong Sells Horses", "Two Guns Lu Wenlong", "Nezha Makes the Sea"
", "The Fight between Sandpipers and Clams", "Little Shang River", "Havoc in Heaven", "Wu Song Fights Tigers", "Seven Captures of Meng Huo" and so on...Xiaoxian, what's wrong with you? As soon as I went up the mountain today
, I always feel that you are not very happy?"
Xie Xiaoxian frowned and looked a little aggrieved, but she didn't know who made her feel wronged. She held You Fang's arm and pouted slightly and said: "Little Youzi, you have traveled to many places, do you feel...
…?”
You Fang: "What do you think?"
Xie Xiaoxian: "I can't say, it's hard to describe anyway. My mother believes in Buddhism. She has told me since I was a child that life and death are normal. But when I see some rivers, seas and mountains over the years, I always feel a little disturbed."
You Fang also frowned slightly: "This feeling is not unreasonable. Maybe it's not your reason. Please describe it carefully, okay?"
Xie Xiaoxian: "I grew up here when I was a child and lived in the mountains for a long time. Although I received a materialistic education, I have felt that this Thousand Lotus Mountain has spirits since I was a child."
You Fang's eyebrows twitched slightly: "You remind me of your sister Xie Xiaoding. You sisters have very interesting feelings. Why are you so smart?"
Xie Xiaoxian: "According to the old people here, the Thousand Lotus Mountains are connected to Changbai, which is the end of the Dragon Veins of the Greater and Lesser Khingan Mountains. It is also the place where human settlements in Liaodong began. There are also ruins of primitive human tribes tens of thousands of years ago nearby. I have known it since I was a child.
I feel that this place is pure and elegant. Although the climate is a little colder, I feel very comfortable. In the spring, the locust flowers are fragrant, and in the autumn, the maples are red and frosty. It is really beautiful. Sometimes I often feel lost while driving on the roadside."
You Fang looked at her, nodded slightly and said, "It's indeed beautiful. Although I didn't see it, I can feel it."
Xie Xiaoxian continued: "But this time I returned to Anshan. On the way here, I saw the spring water stopped flowing, the vines withered, and you Fang, take a look over there."
As she spoke, she pointed in a direction. They were climbing a mountain peak, leaving the main tourist route. The tourist looked along her hand and saw that one side of a distant mountain peak was hollowed out, and a huge mine pit was exposed on the ground.
It is very big, like a huge lake without water waves. Its earth energy induction is like the spiritual axis that has been destroyed by the evil that penetrates the bow, but no matter what kind of master, I am afraid that it will not be able to complete this attack with secret methods.
You Fang extended his spiritual thoughts to sense the mountains and rivers, but for some reason there was a tingling sensation in his spiritual thoughts, as if he heard a moan coming from somewhere. He immediately gathered his spiritual thoughts and turned around, sighing slightly and comforting him: "Worldly affairs
Like a rolling torrent, it has submerged too much. We cannot always be nostalgic. Society must always move forward. But let’s not forget who we are getting along with in the world. When people talk about Feng Shui, they are not just deceptions. There is real meaning in it.
ah."
Xie Xiaoxian summed it up simply: "These are ruining the spirituality of the mountains and rivers."
You Fang could only smile bitterly. He tried not to talk about too mysterious topics in front of Xie Xiaoxian in the past. Unexpectedly, Xie Xiaoxian took the initiative to mention these topics today. It seemed that he was really touched, so he shook his head and said: "The mountains and rivers are ruined because of people's indulgence.
I have forgotten the beauty of feelings, and sacrificed the good for the last. I have sacrificed too much for the little gain in front of me, and I have acted recklessly regardless of Feng Shui rules. Sooner or later, I have to pay the price to recover, but I don’t know whether I can recover? The road must be moved forward, but it is a pity to take some detours.
Got it!"
While talking, the two of them continued to move forward. This is the "Tian Shang Tian" scenic spot, located in Beigou among the four ditches in the east, south, west and north of Qianshan Mountain. The main peak is called Wufoding. Now that the chat box has been opened, it is natural for You Fang to
We talked about Feng Shui and the spiritual beauty of mountains and rivers. These are not necessarily related to the practice of secret methods, and ordinary people often talk about such topics.
The development and design of this scenic spot are indeed a bit nondescript. At least the tourism and construction departments do not understand Feng Shui, or the real Feng Shui. In such places, so-called humanities such as the crude and thrilling World Palace and the ancient city of the Tang Dynasty have also been built.
The landscape is embedded in the peaks of the Dongtian scenic spot outside Guanwai. This is not a park or playground. The atmosphere is completely out of tune with the earth's energy and spiritual hub. The conflict with the environment is like excess fat and acne on a person's body.
.
Xie Xiaoxian had grown up in this area since she was a child. It felt wrong to revisit her old place but it was hard to describe. Of course she would feel uncomfortable. You Fang had to continue to persuade her not to just look at these things. It was also an eyesore. There should be beauty in her heart.
Feelings and eyes must be good at discovering and appreciating. There are many beautiful and steep scenery in Thousand Lotus Mountain. He held her arm and walked along while pointing out the interesting scenery and enjoying it together. Xie Xiaoxian smiled again. After all, he was out to play.
Yes, just be happy.
There are Xiaomeiling and Zhenyigang in the Thousand Mountains. It is said that this is where the immortal Lu Dongbin once sat and discussed the elixir of the immortal family. The essence of its spiritual center is truly extraordinary. They walked through the mountains and finally reached the halfway point of the Five Buddha Summit, without going there.
Climb up and look back to the southeast, you will see the famous Qianshan Giant Buddha. This Buddha is different from other famous cliff stone carvings such as Leshan Giant Buddha and Bamiyan Giant Buddha because it is just one side of a mountain.
The steep stone walls of this mountain naturally form the shape of Maitreya sitting leaning to the right. The head, eyebrows, facial features, hands, knees, and even the rosary on the chest are clearly visible. This natural Buddha mountain also has artificial traces.
There is a hand-carved ring with a diameter of about three meters on the back of the right hand. The sunlight shines on it, and when viewed from a distance, it naturally forms a halo with a strong contrast between light and dark.
This "Big Buddha" was only discovered in the 1990s. After excavation and research, it was found that there are relics left by worshipers from various generations in history. However, it was hidden in Cangshan Mountain and was not known to anyone. It was "discovered" again by people.
one time.
Maitreya is the so-called future Buddha in Buddhism. Strictly speaking, he should not be called Buddha but Bodhisattva. Looking at the mountain of Bodhisattva in the distance, he suddenly said: "Looking at the mountain's aura, it is indeed majestic and precious.
But I feel like this mountain is smiling, it seems like a sneer and a bitter smile."
Xie Xiaoxian snorted and said: "I was still young at that time and had not yet entered elementary school. I heard that a certain great sage discovered a giant Buddha in Qianduo Lotus Mountain. The whole mountain turned out to be like a statue of Maitreya. Look at this Bodhisattva staying here.
How good it is, just like the Feng Shui you just mentioned, it is integrated with these Qianpin Lotus Terraces, sitting hidden among the ancient trees and vines, and has been worshiped by people since ancient times... Now it's good, it has been discovered again, in order to put it
It should be cleaned up more clearly so that people can visit and look at it. The pines and locusts on the cliff over there have been cut down and the ivy has suffered!"
But You Fang couldn't help but laugh: "What a pitiful Bodhisattva! He was forced to run naked and be watched by people!"
Xie Xiaoxian was almost amused, but she punched him and said, "Don't talk like that, my mother believes in Buddhism!"
You Fang quickly lowered his head and bowed to the distant mountain over there: "I'm sorry, I couldn't express my feelings at the moment, and I didn't mean to make fun of you. Bodhisattva is very generous, please don't argue with me!"
Then he pointed to the mountain road: "I just talked about the principles of Feng Shui. Here is a typical example. The Bodhisattva is hidden in a thousand lotus flowers. There is nothing more wonderful than the natural spiritual mirror. It has been entrusted by mountains and rivers since ancient times. But
Some people insist on superfluous, tearing down vines and cutting down trees to show the naked mountain, lest tourists can't see clearly that the mountain looks like a Bodhisattva, but instead it is a ruined and elegant scenery, burning harps and boiling cranes!... Don't mess around if you don't understand, try to find ways to get funds for it
In the construction of scenic spots, it is understandable that you can earn money by doing the projects, but the money is spent in the wrong place, and the result is ruining the scenery."
