In her previous life, Chu Ning liked to read science fiction novels very much, and her favorite was the kind of science fiction theme about the origin of the universe and the exploration of life, and she often thought about what was beyond the universe? Is it really boundless? What is the universe? Thinking about this, I always feel that people are insignificant, thinking of what is often said in science fiction, the earth itself is an accident, and I feel that the world is impermanent, and any belief is unreliable. But in the incense-filled Huguo Temple, listening to the quiet sound of the wooden fish, and feeling the pious mentality of the people around me, I suddenly felt that having this kind of faith was not a self-liberation.

It's just not good at all, the smell of incense is too strong, Chu Ning feels like a fire in his throat, and his body is also stained with a lot of smells, and he doesn't feel more comfortable until he returns to the squatter's room.

The squatter houses here are separate for men and women, so Chu Ning and Xiao Lan live together, and Fang Yiyuan lives in a courtyard a little farther away.

During the meal, Le Qiu directly brought the meal to the room, Chu Ning and the others were also happy, and they were a little tired after worshipping in a big circle.

Through the window of the squatter room, Chu Ning saw that there was a two-story building behind it that did not look like a temple, Chu Ning looked over, and there were vaguely three words on the plaque of the building, but it was not real.

Seeing Chu Ning's gaze, Le Qiu introduced: "The slave maid also saw it just now, and after asking the master here, I found out that it is called 'Zhuangyuan Building', which is specially for students who enter Beijing to take the exam." ”

"It's also very good, it's an auspicious thing to live here, and it's quiet here, Wen Shu is the most suitable. Xiao Lan smiled.

"That being the case, wouldn't those students all squeeze their heads and want to move in?" Chu Ning also smiled and joked, this Huguo Temple will make money.

"That's not it! I heard that the cost of food living here is not low, it is more expensive than those famous inns in the capital! And there have been two champions here, so ah, there are many candidates who want to live here, but it is not enough to be able to live here, so ah, the people who live here are rich and expensive. "Le Qiu gossiped a little, because his master will come to the capital to take the exam in another year, so he still pays more attention to this information.

"I'm afraid there aren't any people living in it now, and next year won't be the time for Dabi. Xiao Lan asked.

"I heard that there are still some people living there, some sons who don't want to be bored at home, and the sons of eunuchs who came to Beijing to study, so there are a lot of people. And they all said that the two champions have a lot of friendship with the host of the temple, and often talk about the scriptures together, which is estimated to be a lot of benefit, so ah, many people have moved in early, hoping to get into the eyes of the host. Le Qiu continued to gossip, although this host did not know, but he was no stranger to Chu Ning and them, it was the senior brother of Monk Jueshen!

Chu Ning's heart also moved slightly, he really wanted to see it a little, and he still had a wood carving given by Monk Jueshen as a token, but when he thought about it, he didn't have anything to do, so it was a little embarrassing to visit rashly, so let's just let it be.

After the meal, Chu Ning and Xiao Lan had nothing to do, so they came out to take a turn, although there was no scenery in this winter, but in this temple, the pavilions and pavilions were scattered, but there was also some interest, and I heard Le Qiu say that there was a scenery behind the mountain of Huguo Temple, called "Remnant Sun Songtao", the winter sunset was very shocking, and the time was just right, so they went to the back mountain together.
