Chapter 523: Resentment is strong
The people talked a lot, looking at the monks, but most of them were disgusted, and there were even many people who spoke ill of each other, and even children followed behind, picking up small stones and throwing them at everyone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The monks didn't dare to say much, they lowered their heads, trying to avoid the stones thrown by the bear children, and there was not much expression on their faces, as if they had already gotten used to all this.
"Smack. Zhu Tianpeng stretched out his hand to catch a stone flying towards Tang Sanzang, looked back at a fat pier that was still in the posture of throwing stones, threw the stone back casually, and landed in front of the fat pier, a big pit appeared directly on the bluestone ground, and sneered: "Throw it again, twist your head off." ”
Fat Dun looked at the big pit in front of him, stunned for a moment, and then cried out with a wow, and ran away with a roll.
And the bear children who were originally following everyone also saw this scene, and they turned into birds and beasts and scattered, and this scene is estimated to become their psychological shadow for a long time. Seeing this, the people who were watching and joking also changed their faces, and they didn't dare to continue to follow the onlookers, so they dispersed one after another.
All the monks looked at Zhu Tianpeng with some gratitude, she was the first person to make them raise their eyebrows for so many years.
Everyone continued to walk forward, and there were still many onlookers along the way, but fortunately, Zhiyuan Temple was not far from the direction of the city gate, so soon everyone came to an ancient temple with a seal on the gate.
The plaque covered with gray layers reads the five big characters of the Zhiyuan Temple, which looks very dilapidated when it looks like a large temple, with cobwebs everywhere, the red gate has been broken, and there are a few traces of burning, and a pair of rusty locks hang on the door, and there are yellowed seals.
"Master, this is Zhiyuan Temple. Monk Hong Miao said in a slightly low voice, looking at the gray plaque, his eyes were a little red. When the emperor built Zhiyuan Temple, this plaque was hung up by him personally, and Zhiyuan Temple was so beautiful at that time.
And thinking back on the situation of more than ten years, there are more than 1,000 disciples in Zhiyuan Temple, and now there are only 100 left, and the word miserable can no longer be described. But fortunately, this kind of day seems to be coming to an end, Tang Sanzang is here, he will definitely be able to rescue them from the sea of suffering, and those Taoist priests, who have tortured them in every way over the years, must let them taste this taste too.
All the monks are also a little excited, more than ten years, they have not entered the temple for more than ten years, these years in addition to being a slave in the Taoist temple and the noble family, is to repair the statue outside the city, now at first sight of the temple, many people have begun to cry.
"Hmm. Tang Sanzang nodded, the temple that had been shelved for more than ten years, and it was also in his imagination to become like this, but the other temples were demolished, and the largest one was not demolished, what were the three national teachers and the emperor thinking, if you want to completely destroy the influence of Buddhism, isn't this Zhiyuan Temple the most important thing to demolish.
"Master, I think we should find a hotel to stay in. Zhu Tianpeng looked at the gate for a while, looked back at Tang Sanzang and said.
"I'll stay here tonight, I don't think there will be any hotel for us to stay. Tang Sanzang shook his head, seeing that the people of Che Chi Kingdom saw a monk like a tiger, how could there be any inn willing to let them stay, unless he became an ordinary person.
Sun Wukong stepped forward, with a wave of his hand, the two big locks tied with iron chains on the door were connected to the iron chains and were disconnected from the middle, the door slowly opened inward, the dust fell, and a dilapidated ancient temple also came into everyone's eyes.
When the dust was almost gone, Tang Sanzang raised his legs and walked inside.
Although defeated, it can be seen that this Zhiyuan Temple was not destroyed by the destruction of the year, overgrown with weeds, all kinds of shrubs are also growing indiscriminately, at a glance are green, some glazed tile buildings appear quite dazzling between the green, but most of the wooden temples have rotted because no one has taken care of them all year round, and it seems that they will collapse at any time.
"Why is there such a strong resentment?" Sun Wukong looked inside, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the red light in his eyes flickered slightly, a little puzzled. The temple is a place like a Buddhist gate, which is generally very peaceful, but there is a strong resentment in this Zhiyuan Temple, which is very strange.
"Master, do you want to help them?" Zhu Tianpeng looked left and right, looked back at Tang Sanzang and asked.
Tang Sanzang hesitated for a moment, knowing that Zhu Tianpeng wanted to use a spell to help this temple return to its original state, he still shook his head, looked back at Hong Miao and said: "Master Abbot, please let them come in first, you are more familiar with Zhiyuan Temple than me, let them clean up your own place to rest at night first, and I will let them go out to buy some rice later, don't worry about dinner." ”
"Okay, then I'll bother the master. Hong Miao nodded hurriedly, turned around and said a few words to the monks, and led everyone into the temple.
Although everyone was weak, they all felt like they were coming home when they entered the temple, and they all showed their enthusiasm to clean up the weeds and shrubs that blocked the road, and cleaned several halls, so that everyone could lay on the floor in the hall at night.
"Tian Peng, evening quiet, you go and buy some rice, vegetables and fruits, enough for these five hundred monks to eat for a few days. Tang Sanzang looked at Zhu Tianpeng and Sha Wanjing and said, now they can only go out to buy things.
"Yes, Master. Sha Wanjing nodded, and followed Zhu Tianpeng out, Ao Xiaobai and Luo Xi wanted to go to the city for a walk, so they also followed.
"Master, please inside, the Zhiyuan Temple survived back then, and the damage was not serious, except for the overgrown weeds, the temple was complete. Hong Miao looked at Tang Sanzang and said.
"Well, then Master Abbot Lao will take you on a tour. Tang Sanzang nodded, seeing that Hong Miao had a bit of a meaning of offering treasures, anyway, he was idle and bored, so he naturally satisfied him.
"What's the place behind that?" Sun Wukong on the side suddenly asked, pointing to the south.
Hong Miao's eyes looked in the direction of Sun Wukong's knowledge, and a trace of discomfort flashed on his face, but it was well hidden, and he said with a smile: "That is the direction of the pagoda and the release pond of Zhiyuan Temple. ”
Sun Wukong nodded thoughtfully, but his brows were still furrowed, if it was a pagoda, it would be impossible for the monk to have such a strong grievance, and how could the place where the Buddha's bone relics were enshrined not be able to suppress the grievance, it was really strange.
"Let's go over there. Tang Sanzang also saw that Sun Wukong seemed to have something on his mind, and nodded.
"Good. Hong Miao glanced at Sun Wukong out of the corner of her eye, nodded with a smile and replied, walking in that direction with her back bent, holding a dead wood branch in her hand, and opening a path among the weeds.
