Chapter 170: See you at the temple

Ci'en Temple deserves to be a thousand-year-old temple.

The cypress in the temple is sensen, verdant and dripping, the ginkgo biloba is golden, bright like clouds, the halls and pavilions between the trees are looming, the autumn cicadas are singing in the air, and the Sanskrit sound is curling.

All the way forward.

After passing the release pond, I saw that the water of the pond was deep and clear, and there were black shadows flickering from time to time, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was a fish or a turtle; when I looked up, the mountain gate was majestic and tall, and the mottled stone rust recorded the vicissitudes of a thousand years; along the way, the halls of the lectures were overlapped, and the corridors of the houses were continuous.

Tourists are weaving all the way, bustling.

Lei Shaoxuan just wanted to burn incense quickly, leave the Temple of Mercy and Grace as soon as possible, and went straight through the Tianwang Hall and came to the Daxiong Treasure Hall.

Outside the main hall, there was a crowd of people, waiting in line to enter the main hall and bow down in front of the Buddha.

Looking from afar, the Daxiong Treasure Hall is majestic and majestic, the huge statue of Buddha Shakyamuni seems to be smiling but not smiling, the wonderful appearance is solemn, the atmosphere is vivid, overlooking all living beings, it makes people admire.

If you wait in line to bow down and burn incense, you won't be able to take your turn in a short time.

Lei Shaoxuan's heart moved, it was better to go and burn incense to the Medicine Buddha.

Medicine Buddha is called the Medicine Buddha who eliminates disasters and prolongs life, worshipping it can make sentient beings free from suffering and happiness, relieve pain and disasters, hope that he can prolong his life, repair back half of his lost life, just suitable for himself but not for everyone, Lei Shaoxuan thought.

There are really few people in front of the Medicine Hall, there are six futons in front of the Buddha statue, only four people light incense, hold incense in their hands, kneel and pray.

The ritual of kneeling is to light six or nine incense sticks, Lei Shaoxuan left in a hurry, so he lit all the incense, knelt in front of the Medicine Buddha, and raised his eyes.

The lotus pedestal in the hall sits on the medicine Buddha, who is the leader of the Oriental pure glass world, and is called the "Great Doctor King Buddha".

The appearance of the Medicine Buddha is solemn and beautiful, which makes people feel happy and pure when they see it.

Lei Shaoxuan seemed to have an understanding, and felt that his heart was clear and flawless.

I could only hear a middle-aged woman beside me bowing her head and chanting: "...... The body is like glass, clear inside and outside, pure and unblemished, bright and vast, and the merits are majestic......"

Lei Shaoxuan inserted all the incense sticks in his hand into the incense burner, looking pious but clumsy, and there was a laugh behind him, and a crisp voice came.

"You, a sergeant, have a handful of incense stuck here, how can you visit other Buddha statues?"

"I have something urgent to leave, and other Buddha halls will come to worship next time. Lei Shaoxuan said casually, a little embarrassed, and turned to look.

I saw a woman wearing a long blue skirt, with a delicate and pretty melon seed face, bright eyes and bright teeth, Zhong Lingyu was beautiful, holding a woman, looking at Lei Shaoxuan with a smile.

Lei Shaoxuan's heart jumped suddenly, and his whole body trembled slightly.

Lei Shaoxuan looked straight at the woman with his eyes, and saw that the woman was wearing a splendid long dress, with a dignified appearance, a ruddy face, a slightly fat and graceful appearance, and a clear gaze, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

For a moment, it was as if everything froze.

The woman suddenly saw Lei Shaoxuan's face, and was stunned for a moment, although she was not sure, she was already in tears.

"Mother!" Lei Shaoxuan muttered in a low voice, his eyes widened, but he was not sure, and said in a trembling voice: "Is it Mother?"

Although the dream haunted the soul, the teenager left home, he hadn't seen him for many years, and his impression was vague, Lei Shaoxuan said tentatively.

"Xuan'er?

Gongsun Qian suddenly saw Lei Shaoxuan, and was stunned for a while, although Lei Shaoxuan's face looked like his son, but Lei Shaoxuan had grown up and was wearing a military uniform, so he couldn't deal with his children anyway.

A mother, awaken unforgettable memories.

"Xuan'er, I look forward to it every day, night and night, and pray to see you all the time......" Gongsun Qian trembled and pounced, tears flowed down her eyes, and the huge surprise knocked her down, making her speechless.

"Mother!" Lei Shaoxuan couldn't hold back any longer, hugging Gongsun Qian and crying.

"Brother!" Lei Tong sobbed, hugging Lei Shaoxuan's arm, "Brother, I miss you so much, without you, I don't dare to go out, I can't sleep, woo." ”

"I'm not dreaming, am I?" Gongsun Qian stopped her tears, let go of Lei Shaoxuan, looked at this sergeant who was already taller than herself, and stroked Lei Shaoxuan's face.

"It's not a dream!" Lei Shaoxuan held Gongsun Qian's hand tightly and choked up, "It's me!" ”

Lei Shaoxuan wiped away the tears on Ruyi's face and said, "Ruyi is so old, she has become a big girl." ”

Ruyi buried his head in Lei Shaoxuan's shoulder and cried: "I don't want to grow up, my brother won't be able to hug me when I grow up." ”

The three of them had mixed feelings, and they couldn't cry, and after a long time, a Buddha horn sounded beside them.

"Amitabha, congratulations on the reunion of Madame's family!"

A monk with white hair and beard and strong spirits, his eyes are bright, his hands are holding beads, and he salutes on the side.

"Master, I want to reshape the Golden Body of Medicine Buddha. Gongsun Qian held back her tears and said to the monk excitedly, "Thank you to my Buddha for protecting my son's safety and reuniting my family." ”

"Xuan'er, this is Master Baozhen, the abbot of the Temple of Mercy and Grace. Gongsun Qian said to Lei Shaoxuan.

"Uh-huh! Lei Shaoxuan said with some disapproval.

Secretly slandered in his heart, every time he met a monk, there was no good thing, and when he met his mother, he let his mother break his fortune and donate a Buddha statue of gold powder to reshape his golden body.

As if he understood what Lei Shaoxuan was thinking, the old monk Baozhen narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Madame, you don't have to be polite, the young master has a relationship with my Buddha." ”

"No fate, no fate. Lei Shaoxuan waved his hand unceremoniously and said, "An old woman kindly gave me a handful of incense, but in fact, she had no choice but to come in and burn incense." ”

"Xuan'er is not allowed to talk nonsense. Gongsun Qian said angrily: "Don't be unreasonable to the master." ”

"How can you enter my Buddha gate without a chance?" Bao Zhen didn't care, and smiled slightly, "Don't you smell and see it when you enter the temple?"

Lei Shaoxuan's face changed slightly, and he suddenly remembered that he had to say a clear view on the Kuhai Road: See you when you meet the temple.

Lei Shaoxuan was slightly frightened in his heart, and he didn't know if what Monk Baozhen said at the moment, whether it was casual or really had some deep meaning. The monk is mysterious and secretive, and his words have deep meanings, but they are not clear, which is really unpleasant.

"Let's go!" Lei Shaoxuan didn't want to stay any longer, and said to his mother: "It's not a rush to reshape the golden body. ”

Lei Shaoxuan suddenly said to Monk Baozhen: "Monk, my mother reshaped the golden body of the Buddha, you pray for her a lot and bless her with peace and longevity." ”

This sentence is a bit unkind and unreasonable, but the monk Baozhen is not angry, and says with deep meaning: "It is difficult to protect my Buddha, and the Buddha protects himself." ”

Lei Shaoxuan was in a trance, Monk Moro accepted himself as a disciple and let him be a Dharma protector, although he agreed at that time, he never took it to heart.

The words of the monk Baozhen in the open and in the secret seem to refer to something.

Lei Shaoxuan said in his heart.

was really a little afraid of the monk, Lei Shaoxuan pulled Gongsun Qian and his sister, and almost ran away.

"Mother, how did you come to Xijing?" asked Lei Shaoxuan.

Gongsun Qian looked at Lei Shaoxuan and sighed.

"You were exiled to the bitter sea, and my mother had no way out, so she led us to Xijing to find my father. Lei Tong took Lei Shaoxuan's hand and said softly.

When Lei Shaoxuan heard this, his face became gloomy.

If his father hadn't abandoned Gongsun Qian, Gongsun Qian would not have been raided at all, and Lei Shaoxuan would not have been exiled.

Lei Shaoxuan's surname is Lei Bu's surname Gongsun, and he belongs to the Lei family like Gongsun Qian, who married into the Lei family, and does not belong to the Gongsun family.

The father abandoned Gongsun Qian, and Gongsun Qian returned to Gongsun Lie with three children before being implicated by his maternal grandfather Gongsun Lie.

"Xuan'er, you have been wronged. Gongsun Qian apologized: "But this matter has been many years, I'll see your father later, don't mention it, okay?"

Looking at Lei Shaoxuan, Gongsun Qian felt very sad. Over the years, I have suffered a lot of grievances and endured silently for the sake of my children. Fortunately, Lei Shaoxuan has grown up and came back safely, and all the grievances are worth it.

"Mother, don't worry, I know how to do it. Lei Shaoxuan forced himself to calm down, "As long as my mother is happy." ”

"Mother, there is no time to be happy. Lei Tong muttered: "Dad married Erniang, she is one round younger than her mother, but she is in the main house, and she gave birth to a younger sister." ”

"Why?" Lei Shaoxuan looked at Lei Tong strangely, "My mother turned out to be the main house, and she gave birth to a few of us, why did a main house pop up?"

"That's not because the Gongsun family is weak, and no one supports my mother. After my father left my mother, I returned to Xijing to marry my second mother. Erniang's surname is Zhou, she is the daughter of the Zhou family, the Zhou family is powerful, and she married the Lei family for a strong alliance......"

"Ruyi, don't say it. Gongsun Qian stopped Lei Tong and said, "Xuan'er, as long as you are safe, it doesn't matter if your mother is wronged." The mother is still a flat wife, and you can also enjoy the status of the Lei family's sister-in-law. ”

"Hmph, that's because my mother can do business and make money for the Lei family. Lei Tong said angrily: "They all look down on people, but fortunately they don't live with them, or they won't be angry." ”

Lei Shaoxuan fell silent.

The father abandoned his mother and returned to Beijing to marry the daughter of the Zhou family, mostly because of this reason.

The Zhou family is a famous family in Xijing, and the power of the Lei family is equal, and they can marry with the Zhou family, compared to the helpless Gongsun Qian, naturally I don't know how much better.

It is conceivable that Gongsun Qian must have suffered a lot of grievances in the Lei family.

Lei Shaoxuan had a banquet with his classmates, and he already deeply understood what it was like to have an identity gap, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for his mother.

When he saw Lei Mansion, Lei Shaoxuan knew the size of the family.

Lei Mansion occupies almost the entire street.

The high wall and deep courtyard, the vermilion gate, and the door stands two hideous two-zhang high stone lions.

Entering the compound, an empty courtyard suddenly appeared, just like the school field, paved with bluestone slabs, and the momentum was magnificent.

There is only one compound, and it shows the heritage of the family.

Lei Shaoxuan sighed secretly, exiled to the sea of bitterness, traveled thousands of miles, saw how many red dust sufferings, never saw the luxury of a wealthy family, and today he knows that there is a sky outside the sky.

My mother lives in a separate house in the backyard.

Gongsun Qian held Lei Shaoxuan, she couldn't see enough, the tears didn't stop, Lei Shaoxuan couldn't bear to feel sad about her mother, so she had to pick up something nice to say.

"Brother, I heard that the death row prisoners in Kuhai have no food and clothing, have to wear dead clothes, and eat human flesh when they are hungry, right?" Lei Tong took Lei Shaoxuan's right hand and asked curiously.

Lei Shaoxuan couldn't cry or laugh, and said: "Don't you see I'm very good? The death row camp can come out to hunt, fish and hunt wild boars, bison and wild deer, there are fish and meat, you see that I am not thin at all." Lei Shaoxuan said nonsense, intending to comfort his mother.

"Really?" Gongsun Qian asked suspiciously, "How did I hear that there are very few death row prisoners who can come back alive from the bitter sea, either on the battlefield, or from injuries and diseases, or from freezing and starvation. ”

"Don't you see Xuan'er is alive and well? Lei Shaoxuan smiled and said: "My son is white and handsome, what kind of person does he look like he has suffered?"

Just as he was about to walk through the compound and towards the moon gate on the right, a group of people suddenly came to him, surrounded by a woman wearing a splendid palace dress.

The woman is dressed in palace clothes and embroidered gorgeously, her hair is cloudy, her lotus leaf face is willow eyebrows, she looks quite standard, her eyes are bright and transparent, which makes people feel extremely easy-going.

When Gongsun Qian saw someone coming, she pulled Lei Shaoxuan to the side and let go of the road.

"I've seen Madame!" Gongsun Qian let go of Lei Shaoxuan and saluted slightly sideways.

Lei Shaoxuan suddenly woke up, this is the eldest lady of Lei Mansion, Zhou Qin, the main house that his father abandoned his mother and married after returning to Xijing.

The mother was originally in the main house and had already given birth to three children, but now she was forced to take a concubine, Lei Shaoxuan was sad and indignant, and couldn't help but look angry.
