Shangfoji Temple is located on the high mountain of Hejian County, from the foot of the mountain to the temple there are a total of 999 layers of blue brick and stone steps, twisting and turning, all the way to the top of the mountain. On the www.biquge.info road, there are pilgrims who come to worship in twos and threes, holding bamboo baskets in their hands, and placing incense candles and other things inside.

Jiang Pengji doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but she has to admit that from the foot of the Buddha Temple to the top of the mountain, the scenery along the way is full of Zen.

The stream is murmuring, the ancient trees are towering to the sky, and the melodious bells and the peaceful chanting of the Buddha can be faintly heard in the distance.

The sky turns from dark to bright, and the distant mountain peaks are shrouded in a red morning glow, accompanied by the calming sound of Buddha to welcome the arrival of a new day. Even a person like Jiang Pengji, who disdains gods and Buddhas, feels a lot more open-minded at this time.

The sound of clogs falling on the stone bricks clicked, step by step, with a leisurely charm in the steps.

Liu She was wearing a brand-new dark blue robe, the size of which was much more suitable than yesterday's clothes, and it also set off his current emaciation.

The black hair was meticulously thinned, his face was trimmed clean, refreshing, his fingernails and toenails were also carefully repaired, there was still a little sandalwood on his body, and his face always had a solemn and solemn color, which showed that he attached great importance to this wish.

Jiang Pengji carried a food box in her hand, which contained incense sticks, candles, lamp oil, gold paper and fruits needed for the sacrifice prepared by the housekeeper, of course, she secretly weighed the weight of the box, the weight did not match the real thing, and there might be real money in it.

"When your two elder brothers were seriously ill and died, Amin climbed up to the Buddha temple step by step, begging the Buddha to have mercy on ......"

Despite maintaining a leisurely pace and breathing rate, Liu She's body was not strong, and he had just finished climbing a third of the way, and his forehead was already sweating. I drank the medicine yesterday, and although the fever had subsided in the middle of the night, my body was still a little weak, and even my lips were bloodless at this time.

"Didn't my father say that my mother is not in good health, why is she still here? She is seriously ill, what is the use of asking God to worship Buddha without seeking medical advice?" Jiang Pengji didn't understand, according to her guess, the cheap mother didn't seem to be a person who would believe in God and Buddhism.

"Yes, getting sick is a matter of Lang Medical Officer, what's the use of praying to God and worshiping Buddha? If the gods and Buddhas are useful, how can your two brothers die young? Amin also sneered at the gods and Buddhas, but he ...... Sometimes you are desperate, not to mention gods and Buddhas, even if it is a god stick, it can become a straw to save the people, and I hope to grasp it in my hands. Liu She sighed as she walked, as if she was recalling something.

One step at a time, after all, he failed to leave the child's life, and the successive blows took half of his wife's life, why didn't he want his life?

If you can't persuade her, what else can you do except accompany her to be stupid?

I only hate that I am not Langzhong, I can't cure the disease, I can't save my life.

"Fortunately, you are still alive, and I wish to come today to make a wish, hoping that your mother and brother can see it and protect your health and happiness in the future. ”

Jiang Pengji was silent with the food box, she was not Liu Lanting, "Father has insight into everything, and he knows that I am not ......"

"Heh, you are the daughter that Amin wants...... Don't get cranky. Liu She seemed to have a habit of touching her head and killing her, relying on herself to step on two more steps, and it was not difficult to rub her head at all, "If you live well, she can be completely at ease in another world." ”

Jiang Pengji was puzzled, and looked at Liu She's slightly emaciated back with puzzled eyes, always feeling that there was another meaning in his words.

Liu She took Jiang Pengji and the old housekeeper to the Shangfo Temple before dawn, and the long mountain road stairs made people's legs hurt, and finally climbed to the top of the mountain when the sun rose, and saw the Shangfo Temple hidden in the lush forest.

The temple is surrounded by green books, layers of fresh flowers and plants surround the slightly faded courtyard wall, the blue-gray temple ridge shows a bit of youthful charm in the sun, the green ancient trees are bathed in the morning light, and the ears are heard with a long and deep bell, and the birds chirp.

The area of the temple is not large, but the age of the temple makes it stand on the top of the hill like an old man, watching the world change day after day.

"The Shangfo Temple was built before the Sixteen Kingdoms, when the Buddhist temple was prosperous, and there were countless temples...... Liu She briefly said the information of the Shangfo Temple, took Jiang Pengji into the main hall, and performed a Buddhist salute to a middle-aged monk, "Master Lichen is here?"

"The master is already waiting for the two of them in the meditation room of the side hall, please invite Lord Liu and the little monk to come. ”

As if expected, the monk in the gray monk's robe returned a salute, with a bit of humility and piety in his eyebrows.

Jiang Pengji was bored to observe the surroundings, at this time there were already many believers in the main hall, men and women, old and young, adding a little vitality to this somewhat dull ancient temple. was thinking about it, but heard Liu She shouting to himself.

After passing through a verandah, Jiang Pengji followed Liu She to the door of a Zen room.

Before she could step inside, she only heard a conversation between Liu She and an old monk in the house.

"After seven years, Lord Liu Shi will not be harmed. ”

Liu She responded in a flat voice, "Everything is fine." ”

"Lord Liu still has a grudge in his heart, and it is difficult to be well. ”

Jiang Pengji laughed secretly in her heart, and when the old monk heard this, she felt a little underwhelmed.

Liu She said with some resentment at this time, "Since Master Lichen already knows, why ask knowingly?"

"This, I think it's the beloved daughter of Lord Liu and Lord Gu, right?" The old monk saw Jiang Pengji entering, raised his head to take a look, and then quickly lowered his head, and the speed of the Buddhist beads in his hand became faster and faster, "Good, good, the quiet place of Buddhism, why did the donor come?"

Jiang Pengji felt inexplicable, and a faint coolness rose in her heart, as if something had been seen through, and she was very unhappy.

Because the live broadcast was relatively early, the audience came in after a while, and when they saw this scene, someone couldn't help but send a barrage.

[Welcome to the adventures of non-chieftains]: The anchor is with me, but whenever you cross, one of the laws, there will definitely be an evil monk!

Jiang Pengji secretly raised her eyebrows, although she didn't know what the law of crossing was, but the monk in front of her was indeed evil.

"Naturally, I followed my father to repay my wishes, otherwise the master thinks that in such a good morning, I don't hide in the bed and fall asleep, Fei Lao climbs the mountain with great strength, what are you doing here?" Jiang Pengji was inexplicable, but she still sat down on the futon beside Liu She.

Her words were disrespectful, but the respected old monk in front of her did not show any anger, but smiled charitentially.

"Ziwei broke the army, and the emperor's spirit loomed, but the killing on her body was too heavy, and it was too much. The old monk and the old god said on the ground, "The little benefactor has just stepped into the temple, and the weight of the blood and qi has made the temple Buddha qi turbulent. If it weren't for the stone steps under the temple that were a little angry, I'm afraid it would ......"
