Chapter 447: Ask the Moon
The pilgrims did not see the vision of the spontaneous combustion of the wick, but they were only lit by Xuanwei, but Ming Ye and the others, who were closer, saw it clearly.
"Amitabha! The so-called sincerity is spirituality, and the power of the wish is through the gods, and that's probably it," Puji said in a long voice.
Puji was well-informed, and he had seen similar visions several times in the past.
The only thing that surprised him was that most of the people who touched the vision in the past were believers who had been worshipping the Buddha for decades, and some of the pilgrims who prayed for blessings were not even believers.
In such a situation, it can still lead to a vision of willpower, and if it is not for the profundity of the person who presides over the ceremony, it is pure coincidence.
Pu Ji couldn't help but glance at Xuanwei, a few months ago, Puji could still see the depth of Xuanwei, and probably knew what state Xuanwei's cultivation was in.
However, at this moment, Puji couldn't see through the subtleties, as if he was looking at flowers in a dream, obviously in front of him, but he couldn't figure out the essence.
"It seems that in the past few months, Xuanwei Xiaoyou has had another adventure!
In comparison, the most outstanding Cheng Nian among the younger generation of Ling Chan Temple is still more than a step behind.
After returning from the Yenching Seminar, Cheng Nian realized something, and after returning to the temple, he announced a retreat. If nothing else, when he gets out, his Dharma cultivation will definitely improve.
However, compared with Xuanwei, Chengnian's progress not only failed to shorten the gap between the two, but was increasingly thrown away by Xuanwei.
In other words, comparing Xuanwei with the younger generation is completely discouraged from the enthusiasm of young people!
Today's Xuanwei, regardless of his actual age, whether it is cultivation or status, or even his reputation in the recent period, he is enough to be on an equal footing with the older generation of monks!
……
After putting the lantern out, Su Xin pushed out the prepared snacks and drinks and distributed them to everyone present in turn.
Suddenly, the aroma was overflowing, and the sound of swallowing saliva could be heard everywhere.
Especially those pilgrims who have not yet made their turn, the sad look on their faces is more than enough to drag them to make a movie.
According to Su Xin's preparation in advance, everyone present could get a large glass of glutinous rice osmanthus wine and a large plate of snacks.
The platter impressively contains two pieces of glutinous rice osmanthus cake made in the morning, pickled vegetables brought by the Lingchan Temple, and other vegetables, fruits, and snacks.
The beautifully decorated platter is tempting enough just to look at, not to mention the rich aroma that is enough to make the stomach hungry tumble.
The diluted glutinous rice osmanthus wine looks slightly pale in color, and the flavor and concentration of the wine are not as good as the previous puree, but after special preparation, the osmanthus aroma in the wine appears more and more fresh.
Those who are not strong enough to drink can think of it as a drink without getting drunk. Those who love wine can also taste the slightly drunken taste from it.
"There is wine when there is music, autumn water, and play a song with the poor road!" Xuan Wei took a sip of glutinous rice osmanthus wine and said with great interest.
Qiushui handed the guqin that had been prepared to Xuanwei, and he picked up the guitar he had with him.
"In this situation, how about playing a song "Ask the Moon for Wine"?" asked Xuanwei.
"But according to the teacher's orders!" Qiushui nodded in response.
When it comes to ancient songs related to the moon, the first thing that comes to mind is "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", "Autumn Moon on Pinghu", "Flower Good Moon" and "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon", counting foreign ones, there are "Moonlight", "Moonlight Song" and so on.
Most people only know that the poet fairy Li Bai wrote a poem "Asking the Moon for Wine", but they don't know that there is such a guqin song.
In fact, this qin song is also derived from the poem of the poet fairy.
The sound of the guqin sounded leisurely, and with the accompaniment of the guitar, an elegant and chic artistic conception was rendered at once.
When the bright moon is in the sky, when you should raise a glass to invite the moon, you can indulge in the horizontal!
Inviting the moon to drink, my thoughts seem to gradually fly with the sound of the song, flying above the bright moon that is as clear as a mirror.
The clouds are gone, the bright moon exudes a cold glow shining in the palace, the white rabbit pounds medicine in autumn and spring, who is Chang'e's neighbor in solitude?
Time is long, life is fleeting, and the bright moon is eternal, people now can't see the moon of ancient times, but the current moon shines on the people of ancient times.
The ancients and the present pass like flowing water, except for the bright moon that we see together.
The world is impermanent, what's the use of feeling too much, it's better to ask the moon for wine, and ask for a timely fun!
……
At the end of the song, everyone present was still immersed in the aftertaste, drunk and confused.
I don't know if it's this wine that gets drunk, or the moonlight that gets drunk, or the music that gets drunk?
After a while, Xuan Wei slowly spoke: "Tonight's moon viewing meeting is aimed at enjoying the moon, if you know poetry and songs, you might as well come up and express your heart!"
As I said before, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy in all, and if the pilgrims do not participate, then the fun will naturally be reduced a lot.
"In this way, the laymen will be the judges once, and after the moon viewing party is over, the laymen will vote for the most wonderful performances, and give some small gifts as a prize!" Xuan Wei continued.
It is rare to hold an event, and Xuanwei does not spare some benefits, as long as it plays a role in enlivening the atmosphere, small things are not enough to worry about.
As soon as Xuan Wei's words fell, a little brother with glasses stood up.
"I, I'm going to sing "The Moon Represents My Heart" and give it to someone here!" said the glasses guy was quite shy, but still plucked up the courage.
Everyone followed the little brother's gaze and immediately found a pretty girl with a flushed face, she lowered her head in a panic, covered her eyes with bangs, and didn't dare to meet the little brother's eyes.
"Wow, this wave of dog food is really caught off guard!"
"I also want to go up and sing a song to the girl I love, but the problem is that I don't have that kind of object!"
"It's so romantic, isn't it time to propose on the spot?"
While the pilgrims were talking in a low voice, the glasses boy stumbled to finish a song.
Although it is not very beautiful, it can be heard that every sentence he sings is from the bottom of his heart and sincere.
I don't know who took the lead in shouting, and the whole open space shouted "together" in unison.
Xuan Wei shook his head with a helpless smile, bowed twice to the Heaven and Earth Temple, and said in a low voice: "Supreme Heavenly Venerable!
There is a saying that "it is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy a marriage", if you can achieve a marriage, a little abrupt and rude, you must be able to get understanding.
Of course, this is already Xuanwei's bottom line, if someone comes up next to sing "On the Moon", "Moonlight Serenade" and the like, Xuanwei has no choice but to invite him down.
If someone is going to perform a dance with a stereo, sorry, they will be carried away with the stereo!
