Chapter 109 280 acres of mountain forest
Su Wen turned around and checked the Shuangfo Temple on the Internet, only to find that the Shuangfo Temple was not far from the Jingxin Temple, but it was more than 100 kilometers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Su Wen remembered that when he first came to this world, there was a group of monks who wanted to turn the Pure Heart Temple into their lower courtyard, but weren't they the people of the Double Buddha Temple? No one had ever been here, and Su Wen had forgotten about them.
It is very understandable that they are with the people of Guoqing Temple, after all, the Tiantai sect and the Pure Land have a deep relationship, and they are both dedicated to practicing Buddhism and reincarnating in the Pure Land.
On the contrary, Zen Buddhism focuses on enlightenment and becoming a Buddha, although it belongs to the same Mahayana, but it is completely different from these two sects.
After reading it, put it down. Yunhai only came to make soy sauce this time. If there is any small action, it is a big deal to take a trip and personally worship them at the mountain gate.
In the next two days, Song Min's face became more and more ugly, more and more anxious, and he often didn't even come out to eat.
On the first day of the second month, if the Daomen were going to come looking for trouble, it would be today.
Ever since he finished breakfast in the morning, Su Wen has been waiting for the Taoist people who will come if he doesn't know what.
To his surprise, no one else came until noon except for the normal pilgrims.
At noon, when he saw Song Min's face was dead, he guessed that he might have been given up by his master, or was he waiting for more than 20 days to compete with Li Zitong?
In the afternoon, two people on crutches moved up the steps step by step and came to the front of the Pure Heart Temple Mountain.
If it hadn't been for a phone call from the Pure Heart Temple a few months ago, I'm afraid the two of them would have lost their lives. After lying in the hospital for a few months, after resentment, incomprehension, suspicion, and rejoicing, the two of them came to the Pure Heart Temple first after leaving the hospital.
And two middle-aged men and women followed behind the two, and they were their families. In any case, even if it is to relieve the fear of the unknown in my heart, I have to express my gratitude.
After kowtowing in front of the Buddha and offering incense, the two stuffed a wad of money into the merit box. Not much, 3,000 yuan per person, which is already very sincere for the two families who have just spent a lot of money on medical expenses.
"Master, do you still recognize me? Hou Xiaobai moved to Dao Yan on crutches, with a respectful attitude, and he didn't dare to say anything nonsense this time.
Dao Yan opened his eyes and saluted the two of them, without saying anything.
Hou Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief.
After staying in the temple for a while, two middle-aged men and women prayed earnestly in front of the Buddha before they said goodbye and left.
On the way down, two female pilgrims passed by them. The eldest is in his thirties, and the youngest is only in his early twenties, and he looks weak and pitiful. Seeing that pair of frightened fawn-like eyes, Hou Xiaobai suddenly felt that somewhere in his heart had been touched, if it weren't for his parents still around, I'm afraid he would have stepped forward to talk.
After descending the mountain, his father began to teach him: "Now you know, there are many things in this world that cannot be explained by current science, but it does not mean that they do not exist. In the future, you must remember this lesson and be a man with a sense of awe. ”
Hou Xiaobai's ears were calloused when he heard this, and his mind unconsciously drifted to the girl who had just gone up the mountain.
After the two female guests prayed for incense, the young girl stood at the mountain gate and looked at the distant scenery and said to herself, "This place is so beautiful, you can see the scenery far away." ”
The older woman touched her hair: "If you are beautiful, you will come and see more." ”
The girl pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, I like it here." ”
The older woman paused for a moment, and then couldn't help but feel ecstasy in her heart. The girl had been locked in her room since that incident, had attempted suicide several times, and hadn't laughed for a long time.
In the past two days, I heard that one of the rapists was broken into pieces, and he will never be humane again, although he has not been punished by the law, but after so many things, the almost desperate family has been very happy with such a result, so he pulled his sister out to worship the Buddha. I didn't expect my sister to say that she liked it here, and she smiled, it seemed that she could finally come out of the shadows.
Immediately, I was going to take my sister back and put on a stick of incense to thank the Buddha for his protection.
The girl just let her drag her back to the temple.
Just after burning the incense, she suddenly felt a little better and calmer, which was particularly precious to her who had been immersed in pain.
……
On the second day of the second month of February, the dragon raised its head.
The name is very high, but it's actually not an important day, at most, when I asked about my hometown in my previous life, men had to cut their hair on this day, so I patted my head and set the world on this day.
However, for Lu Qing and the three of them, this day was a turning point for the three of them.
From this day on, the three of them had nothing to do with Taoism and turned to Buddhism.
And the degree of the three of them was also sent yesterday.
In the morning, after the morning service, the monks stood on both sides.
The four of them went out and brought the washbasin, hot water, razors, plates, and red paper that had been prepared long ago.
"Come in. Su Wen said a word outside the door, and the three of them entered the main hall in turn and knelt in front of the Buddha statue. Song Min's heart was like ashes, and he knew that no one would come to fish him out.
After saying the three returns and singing incense, the three of them bowed three times to the Buddha statue, then four times to the north and four to the south. Thanking heaven and earth, monarchs, parents, and teachers, follow Su Wen to sing confessions. No matter how reluctant you are, this matter is a foregone conclusion.
Then Su Wen took the bottle of nectar water and sprinkled it on everyone's head three times, and Lu Zhishen stepped forward to shave the hair of the three people with a razor.
Then the three of them worshiped Daoyan as a teacher. After all, it was a little awkward to let Su Wen accept such a disciple of the third grade. Moreover, Dao Yan is proficient in the two classics of Buddhism and Taoism, and is also more suitable for teaching the three of them.
After that, the three of them were given legal names, Lu Qing was the precept, Zhao Xiyan was the law, and Song Min was the wisdom.
The three of them went back to the monk's house to change into monks' clothes.
Lu Qing's eyes were red when they went out, no matter how much they accepted their fate, they would be reluctant to break off from now on and in the past few decades. Especially ashamed of the teacher, only the two of them were handed down, but they both entered the Buddha, and only the small Taoist temple did not know what would become after many years. On the contrary, Song Min, who had been hostile from the beginning, was expressionless and his eyes were gray.
When the three of them came back, they were already three ordinary monks.
…………
During the day, three custom-made steel-knotted carbide sticks and Zen sticks were delivered.
Su Wen picked up the Zen stick and danced twice, although the weight was slightly heavier than the original, but it was acceptable. The staff is engraved with scriptures, and it feels good to the touch. The most important surface is treated to look similar to a normal cast iron cane. If Li Zitong really took out some sword that sharpened like clay at that time, Su Wen believed that he would definitely give him a surprise.
After the second day of February, the earth began to thaw. Jelly Beans finally got out of the earthen house, and when they had nothing to do, they circled around Yilong to ask for something to eat. After a winter, Jelly Bean's body size has basically not changed, it is not much bigger than a dog, the hair on its body is a little sparse, and its face is pointed and long.
And Su Wen also has to start the matter of spring ploughing. Before that, I made a trip to the Bureau of Land and Resources.
It's easy to say hello to someone. After Su Wen reported his name, he was immediately welcomed in.
There are a lot of stones on Baiyun Mountain, and there are very few flat places, so there is not much development value except for tourism. If you want to contract, it is estimated that about 20,000 yuan a year for such a large area is enough, but if you want to buy land, the price will be much higher. In the Empire, in the plains, cultivated land was not allowed to be bought and sold. It's this kind of mountain forest that still needs to be approved.
With Du Xintie greeting, there is no problem in this regard, but it is still necessary to demarcate the scope on the spot.
I went on a trip with the people from the Land Bureau, and it took two days to determine the scope, only to find that the area demarcated by Suwen was not 150 acres, but 220 acres. Because the mountain was sloping, and Su Wen was only high at that time.
In the end, the price was 3.8 million, 17,000 acres. There are not only large areas of woodland, but also a few fairly flat clearings, and a small stream passing through them.
After looking at the proportional position of the land purchased by Jingxin Temple on the mountain, as shown on the renderings, Suwen expanded the width by another hundred meters, adding sixty acres to two hundred and eighty acres. In the end, it was 4.76 million.
Although this is a lot of money, Su Wenhua is extremely satisfied.
These 280 acres belong entirely to the Pure Heart Temple. In the future, whether it is the construction of temples or the reclamation of land, there will be no more trouble.
