Chapter 35 Buddhism is unfortunate

From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there are 999 steps, the meaning of ninety-nine to one, the foot of the mountain looks up, there is an ancient building on the top of the mountain, it was originally called Wanhualou, and then I feel that the name of the brothel of the more prostitute kiln is a bit conflicting, and then it is renamed Jinhua Temple, the glazed tiles of golden light, the high wall of vermilion bleeding, towering in the sun is very solemn.

There are three big characters "Golden Flower Temple" on the main entrance of Jinhua Temple, the word is strong, eye-catching, there are high walls around Jinhua Temple, there are big black characters on the left wall "Bitter Sea is endless", and there are also big black characters on the right side "when you turn back".

After entering the Golden Flower Temple, there is a courtyard in the courtyard, there is a bronze tripod in the courtyard, which burns the incense that those who worship the Buddha, the fragrance is lingering, the visitors are dense, quiet and solemn, the ancient trees are towering to the sky, the pines and cypresses are forested, the bamboo is lush, the flowers are fragrant.

All around, the antique corridor, the vermilion wooden wall is carved with exquisite gods and goddesses on one side, and different floral patterns are carved on the other, which is magnificent and eye-catching.

Facing the Daxiong Treasure Hall, it is also the largest Tibetan Buddha room, the largest three Buddha statues are in sight, the gold and bronze are colorful, the chest is exposed, the knees are cross-legged, the face is smiling, vivid, full of interest.

After Ma Wenbing and Tianxiang worshiped the Buddha statue, they found a little monk who was a deacon, very thin.

"Little master, can you take us to visit the abbot, we have something important to ask. Ma Wenbing lowered his head and asked politely.

"What do you call the donor?" the little monk replied politely with his hands together.

"The surname is Ma, Ma Wenbing. ”

"Okay, Mr. Ma, please come with me. The little monk turned around and walked towards the back hall, followed quietly by Ma Wenbing and Tianxiang.

Since arriving at the temple, there is the smell of flowers and incense everywhere, and there is a solemnity, which makes people have to be in awe and serious.

Under the leadership of the little monk, I arrived at a room, which was the place where the abbot meditated and recited the Buddha in surprise.

After the little monk's report, with the permission of the old abbot, Ma Wenbing and Tianxiang entered the room together, and a short, swarthy but kind old monk greeted him with a smile and pushed the seat for tea.

"Amitabha, I don't know why Mr. Ma wants to see Lao Gao?"

Kongkou Da looked at Ma Wenbing and Tianxiang behind him in advance, it was two unfamiliar faces, so he asked.

"Thank you Master for your politeness, I came to ask the master about someone, I hope the master knows and can help, this person is very important to us. Marven said in a good manner.

"Oh, sir, I know, the old man knows everything. Master Kukou then asked, there were many people who came here to inquire, so he was not wary of the two of them.

"Monk Guangtu, I don't know if the master knows this person?" Ma Wenbing asked directly, presumably this master is well-informed and a member of Buddhism, so he must know it, so he has great expectations.

"Monk ...... Broad Map"

Master Kongkou silently recited, then shook his head and said: "There are many monks of the Guangzi generation of Wanhua Temple, but Lao Qu really doesn't know the Guangtu monks. ”

Hearing the master say that he didn't know about the Guangtu monk, Ma Wenbing and Tianxiang were very disappointed, the two of them wasted for so long and said that this place is not to burn incense and worship the Buddha, and if they can't find the Guangtu monk, they can't find the master and senior sister.

"Could it be that there are many disciples in your temple, and the master can't remember it clearly, or maybe he changed his name and the master doesn't know yet, is it possible?" Tianxiang suddenly asked.

"This ...... What the little donor said makes sense, there is really a possibility. Master Kukou nodded and stared, then shouted outside, "Go and call me to come over." ”

After a while, the door opened, and a tall and thin old monk came, no matter in terms of robe or age, he was one generation lower than the abbot, who was the supervisor of the temple, in charge of the affairs of the whole temple, and the rank was second only to the abbot.

"What did the abbot tell me about?" asked the monk of the temple.

"Do any of the disciples in our temple have a person named Guangtu? "Kukou asked, although there are a lot of things to help people ask about things, but it is rare for this person to be a monk, and it is not necessarily related to this temple, and all the abbots have to be cautious.

Hearing the abbot's question, the supervisor turned his eyes and thought about it, "Guangzi, Guangzhi, Guanghui, Guangming...... Abbot, there is no one called Guangtu. ”

"Then do you have any monks who have changed their names?" asked Tenka, seemingly forgetting that she was a little scholar who was a companion, but she didn't really care about the big things.

"There are many disciples who have changed their names, but they have not changed to Guangtu monks. The temple replied firmly, confident in his memory.

"Master, this Guangtu monk is very important to us, I have several relatives and friends in his hands, life and death are unknown, the master has a wide range of knowledge, we are not popular here, I don't know if the master can help me check this Guangtu monk, maybe he is just a random title and not necessarily. Ma Wenbing stood up and bent down and said, wanting to beg the master for help, he and Tianxiang had little hope of finding it, and they were still being pursued by officers and soldiers.

"Oh, there is such a thing? Buddhists, charity-oriented, how can we kidnap them? Mr. Ma is sure that he is a disciple of Buddhism?" Kongkou was shocked, stood up and asked.

Ma Wenbing didn't dare to say anything definite, because he was not familiar with the monk, so he replied: "I don't dare to confirm whether he is a real monk or not, but he is indeed a monk's dress, and he has a relationship with a nun and a Taoist priest." ”

"How is it possible? Since he is a disciple of Buddhism, how can he have anything to do with nuns and Taoist priests? Presumably that monk is a fake monk. The superintendent also heard that Ma Wenbing was looking for a monk, but what he said was too ridiculous, and he couldn't believe that person was a monk.

Hearing Ma Wenbing's words, Master Kongkou was also confused, what else was there for nuns and Taoists, so he asked suspiciously: "Amitabha, Mr. Ma, in this way, you tell Lao Wei what you know from beginning to end, if you can help, Lao Gao will definitely be duty-bound." ”

Next, Ma Wenbing talked about the monks, Taoist priests and nuns who did a lot of work in the Tianlong Inn, how they later entered the dungeon, were attacked by monks in the mangrove forest, and the matter of the Moon King Pavilion and so on.

After Ma Wenbing finished speaking, Master Kongkou was silent for a while, he didn't expect the disciples of Buddhism to do such a thing, it was really unfortunate for Buddhism, and it was very heartbreaking, "There is a nunnery in the mountain opposite Wanhua Temple, and there are more than a dozen monks who practice in it, so let's send someone to take you over, you go there to inquire if there is a person named Hua Ni, and we have also carefully checked and there are no disciples of Guangtu, Mr. Ma, what do you think of this?"

Hearing that Master Kongkou could help him find a way, Ma Wenbing was very happy and very grateful, "Thank you Master, then there is Master Lao." ”
