Chapter 359: Journey to the West 19
Ding Feng's first thought was that these unlucky disciples of the Futu Temple had already encountered an accident, or else, as this little novice said, they would be stationed in the Tzuyun Nunnery. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But it's unlikely, Ciyun Nunnery is all nuns, and with the concept of Buddhism, the monks of the Futu Temple should not move in rashly.
After knowing the situation, Ding Feng said goodbye and also walked up the mountain road, preparing to go to the Futu Temple to have a look. It's really unreasonable to come to the West Pole and not see the scene of the peak of incense, and Ding Feng doesn't want to regret it again. Obviously, the season has come, but the two temples of Kegaran and Ciyun are relatively deserted. However, on these mountain paths, pilgrims and travelers are endless, and there are many devout believers who take ten steps and bow their heads, eat and sleep in the open air, feed on the morning dew, and make pilgrimages.
The group is mighty and diverse, but they all hold a pious heart. Ding Feng is not conspicuous when mixed in the crowd, because there are many monks in the Futu Temple, and some even talk about the Buddha on the side of the road, sitting on the bluestone platform, and the West Pole grassland people are surrounded below. Most of the steppe people have dark skin, thick shoulders and round waists, giving people a fierce and powerful feeling. The grassland people are arrogant, but they dare not be presumptuous in front of the Buddha, even the head of the clan is silent, dare not speak, and listen to the Buddha quietly.
Ding Feng looked at four or five rough men sitting cross-legged and listening to the Buddha, and always felt a little weird. Later, Ding Feng found that he had fallen into a cliché, how could he judge a person or a class of people by his appearance? Buddhism worked hard to resolve the ferocity of the people of the West Pole grassland, and now it has gradually achieved results, and in another thousand years, maybe it can really be tamed in the West Pole. The resources of the West Pole are not scarce, and once developed, they may be comparable to the East Pole. Intoxicating chapter & section small.Said in hey ~ smoke ~ grid
As far as Ding Feng knows, there are also many ghosts and monsters in the West Pole among the people of Dongyang, and the coastal countries must be very careful if they want to trade between the two regions. Very few caravans ventured, but there were people who made a fortune and became rich overnight. After the domestication of the West Pole, once the sea route between the two regions is opened, it will be a good talk, and the entire Bitter Realm Human Race will progress because of this.
Ding Feng has been trained in the Daomen, and his vision is already unusual. Mortal life is not more than a hundred years, the immortal family can be considerable for tens of millions of years, look at the rise and fall of the country, Dongyang also has a great unification time, divided and combined, now is the time when a hundred schools of thought contend. The world must be divided for a long time, and it must be divided for a long time, and the Taoist gate must not interfere too much with the mundane, otherwise it will be retrograde, and it will be no different from the outer way.
It is said in a book called Fengshen that the emperor lost his morality, the world was in chaos, and the foreign way was prosperous, and he forced the human race to eat the flesh of his son. If it weren't for the rise of talented people from all walks of life in the world, the world would have fallen into the hands of outsiders.
The mountain path is winding and narrow, but Ding Feng doesn't feel crowded when he walks on the road. The monks of the Futu Temple did not come to control the order, but to protect the pilgrims because of the appearance of the outer way. These Buddhists kept their distance and walked in an orderly manner, and even if the person walking in front of them was slow, they would not push or scold, but would slow down and wait quietly. Although they don't know each other, they have a special tacit understanding on this road. Putting aside the shackles of clans and other mundane people, on the way to the Futu Temple, they were all Buddhist believers.
Ding Feng couldn't help but be curious about the Futu Temple, the Futu Temple was well managed, and the other two temples couldn't compare. Jialan Temple is similar to Ciyun Nunnery, but Ding Feng doesn't know much about the situation of Ciyun Nunnery, but he only knows some from Jinghui's words.
These three temples in the eastern mountains of the West Pole are famous, and there are many unknown temples among them. The pilgrims were snubbed, but some Buddhist believers would trek to worship when they saw it. The people of the West Pole Grassland have long regarded Buddhism as a belief, and even if outsiders come here, it is difficult to spread it. On the contrary, Dongyang, people's hearts are free, but they will be fascinated by foreign ways.
After traveling for three days and three nights, Ding Feng and a group of pilgrims saw the Futu Temple. This floating temple is layered on top of each other, one after another, as if there is no end in sight. It is the inscription again, and the Buddha statue again, the incense is curling, and the door is endless. Ding Feng was a foreign monk, and unlike the pilgrims, he directly expressed his intention to the monks of the Futu Temple.
The monks of the Futu Temple did not report it, and took Ding Feng to the temple and prepared a clean room. Not far from this courtyard is where the Futu Temple is located, and you can faintly hear the monks preaching the scriptures. A little farther away, it is the temple of the church, the place where the pilgrims come to listen to the sermon. It was here that the disciples of Buddhism were instructed, and Ding Feng knew the rules of Buddhism, so he never walked around at will. But it's just that you can still walk around casually in this courtyard.
Suddenly, I saw three monks sitting cross-legged next to a tall stone pagoda, staring at the stone pagoda, on which a scroll of Buddhist scriptures was bundled. This aroused Ding Feng's curiosity and asked, "What are you looking at?"
The three monks did not show their displeasure when they were disturbed by Ding Feng, but explained: "The scriptures handed down by the great masters of our temple after they went to the Pure Land. Everyone can get a glimpse of the supreme Buddha's teachings from it. He even gave the 'Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Sword' magical power!"
Ding Feng didn't believe that the magical powers of Buddhism were ethereal, and it was not yet known whether he could get supernatural powers and what supernatural powers he could get when he opened his senses. A Buddhist scripture is practiced by tens of millions of people, and there may be two people who can obtain supernatural powers, and these two supernatural powers are not necessarily the same. Ding Feng was suddenly a little puzzled: "Why did such an important treasure be placed here?
One of the monks smiled lightly: "Buddhism is a convenient door, as long as you have the heart, anyone can come here to read the scriptures." But I don't know how many years of inheritance in my temple, and no one has got the real Buddha's teachings and Dharma from it. ”
Ding Feng thought in his heart, no wonder this is the case. If you can really realize the supernatural powers, the Futu Temple is not a treasure. But the truth is also the same truth, ordinary people will not be able to understand the supernatural powers. It is better to hide it and put it out, so that everyone can come and see, as long as one person has an epiphany, the rest can also benefit from it. When Ding Feng heard the sword word, he was also happy in his heart, and he decided whether to give it a try. What if you get more than one supernatural power?
Ding Feng also sat down in front of the stone pagoda, and this meditation was an afternoon and an evening. The result, of course, was nothing, and nothing could be seen in the small print. But Ding Feng thought that the disciples of the Futu Temple for thousands of years had not obtained this magical power, and he had some Buddha fate, but he did not have such blessings. No matter how bad the great virtue of the Futu Temple is, he has to take care of the disciples in his own temple, and Ding Feng wants to understand the supernatural powers from it, which is as difficult as ascending to the sky.
Seeing that Ding Feng was about to turn away, the three monks smiled and said, "Why can't you hold on in the middle of the night?"
Ding Feng was originally a temporary idea, one more Buddhism and one less Buddhism had little impact on him, just trying, and he didn't force it: "Hehe, the poor monk's Buddhism is shallow, and he can't get a glimpse of the Dharma." ”
