Chapter 234 The Old Monk of the Ancient Temple

The scorching sun of September still has the aftermath of midsummer, but as soon as it shines into the canyon named "Cuiyun Corridor" by the locals, it seems that the heat energy is filtered out by the mountains and mountains, and only the dazzling light remains. (

Liu Yu rode a motorcycle from the asphalt road close to the mountain roots, and quickly entered the Cuiyun Corridor. He is not a gang-level master who is not invaded by cold and heat now, and he is quite impatient with this kind of sultry weather. Suddenly saw such a "treasure land", immediately stopped the car and rested.

After sending Lou Yinhe to the capital, Liu Yu did not delay much, and immediately set off for Fujian, the target of which was Yongchun Huyang Town, where he is now.

He took out a bottle of mineral water and drank it dry, so that he had time to observe the endless mountain valley.

This place is worthy of being a favorite place of dignitaries and dignitaries in the past dynasties. Looking around, there are dangerous cliffs on all sides; Looking up, the mountain peaks are towering, like thorns and tilting; Look closely, the mountains and forests are lush and dense, rich and dripping.

Even the colors of the trees are different from the others. Strange pines and strange cypresses, green and blue; Ginkgo biloba, Bili floating cream; The sparse and occasional Tsubaki trees, tall and thick, hang clusters of onion-colored Tsubaki lotus in the middle of the olive-green leaves.

In the places that cannot be covered by the trees, there are clumps of mugwort, the deep grass is knee-deep, and there are strange stones in the grass, like birds and beasts.

All kinds of scenes, make people feel that as soon as they enter this green cloud corridor, it makes people feel like bathing in a clear spring, washing the dust all over their bodies, and they are convinced that there is really the kind of immortal abode depicted in the legend in the world.

Liu Yu had just sat here for ten minutes, and he felt refreshed and tired. Just as he was about to go out, an old lady of about seventy years of age walked down from the top of the road, carrying a simple cane made of withered branches in her hand, a straw basket made of withered rattan on her back, and hunched her knees, walking towards this side step by step.

Liu Yu immediately greeted him, and said in his mouth, "Auntie, let's rest for a while before leaving", and directly helped the lady to sit on the stone.

Xu is Liu Yu's handsome appearance and very friendly smile dissolved the old lady's wariness of strangers, she did not refuse, sat down, squinted her eyes, and said casually while looking at Liu Yu: "Alas~~, I am old, and my legs and feet are not good!" ”

Liu Yu was slightly curious: "There is no one in the vicinity for two or three miles, you have bad legs and feet, and you still have to go so far?" ”

The old lady leaned her face over and said softly, "Ask the Bodhisattva to bless you!" The holy water of the Buddha hall can drive away evil spirits and avoid demons, and now at this time, there is no room at home, what if a ghost enters the door? ”

Liu Yu's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Bodhisattva? Whoa? But what happened to the temple on the mountain? ”

The old lady hung her head, straightened out the chaotic Bai, and did not answer Liu Yu's words positively: "This Xifeng Temple can't be repaired!" Ghosts occupy the position of gods, and Buddhas are not spiritual! As soon as the construction team entered the temple, there was a ghost wind. ”

"What the hell?" The playfulness in Liu Yu's eyes became heavier.

The eldest lady looked around with palpitations, and whispered, "Little brother, are you a foreigner?" ”

"I'm here to travel to the capital."

"Alas, why do you people in the capital always like to drill into such a lump as us? We can't wait to go to you! The old lady complained and turned back to the topic: "You don't know, there is a ghost wind under the stone tower of Xifeng Temple again!" I heard the elders say that there are fierce ghosts suppressed under this stone tower, and there are often ghosts in the middle of the night, and the sound of ghosts crying and howling wolves can scare people to the root of the head. Legend has it that a brave villager ran to find out in the middle of the night, but as soon as he approached the stone tower, his head was cut off by the ghost wind. Now, the town plans to open the Xifeng Temple, and if the inclined stone tower is to be torn down, it is not to be released; Is the ghost coming? Amitabha Buddha ......"

"Auntie, have you ever seen a ghost wind in the stone tower?"

"Who dare? Ever since the ghost wind cut off the human head, no one dared to approach the stone pagoda when the ghost wind was rising, except for Master Fukuen of Saihoji Temple......"

"Master Fuyuan?" Liu Yu's eyes began to light up.

"yes." The old lady clasped her hands together and said with a pious face: "Master Fuyuan has been in Xifeng Temple for more than sixty years, in my impression, his old man was this disgusting appearance sixty years ago, and his appearance has not changed much after sixty years, which can be called boundless mana and infinite magical powers." If it weren't for Master Fuyuan's suppression, I'm afraid that as early as when the stone tower tilted, the suppressed ghost would have broken out of the seal and come out to harm people......"

After the eldest lady finished speaking, she glanced at Liu Yu and said, "Little brother, listen to what the eldest lady said, don't stay in Xifeng Temple at night, let alone see the ghost wind of the stone tower!" Don't you young people like to say something, well, curiosity kills cats......"

Seeing the old lady get up tremblingly, Liu Yu hurriedly said, "Auntie, I'll send you home, right?" ”

"No need." The old lady waved her hand and said: "Please rely on sincerity to invite the holy water of the Buddha Hall, and you can't use other tools and external forces." Little brother, go play, go early and come back early, don't rest in Xifeng Temple, or go back to Huyang Town to find a hotel. ”

Bidding farewell to the eldest lady, Liu Yu stepped on the motorcycle and left the Cuiyun Corridor. As soon as I climbed to the top of a slope, I saw the smoke of the Xifeng Temple under another hill not far away, and the figures were longing.

It seems that there are a lot of people who enter the incense today, just because most of the temple is closed for maintenance, and people have to spread around and bow down from afar. The highway near Xifeng Temple, bustling with people and hawkers, has become a temporary market for incense services.

Looking at the Xifeng Temple in front of him, the corners of Liu Yu's mouth hooked up a strange laugh line.

Xifeng Temple, located on the southern slope of Qiyun Peak. Facing south in the north, it is condescending, surrounded by tall and stout thousand-year-old cypresses, and spreads its high stone steps, wide palaces, and mottled tiles. From a distance, it can really be described as solemn.

Xifeng Temple was built in the Xiantong period of the Tang Dynasty and has a history of 1,140 years. According to legend, because the six ancestors of Zen Buddhism Huineng once taught Buddhism here, the monks turned into a fate and built Xifeng Temple, and the incense became more and more vigorous.

In the period of Song Gaozong, Xifeng Temple has become a large temple with nearly 800 monks and thousands of acres of fields and forests.

Such a Zen holy place, I don't know how to do it, during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there were suddenly rumors of ghosts. The temple was in a state of misfortune, either the building collapsed for no reason, or it was burned by lightning and lightning. Even the terraced stone ridges that farmers had built nearby were difficult to stand for a long time, and they were either washed away by flash floods or blown down by mountain winds. As time goes by, people feel that in the area of Xifeng Temple, ghosts are prosperous and declining, and feng shui is not good.

However, at that time, the Xifeng Temple presided over the feng shui of this place, but there was another way to say about the feng shui of this place. He said that Qiyunfeng is beautiful and beautiful, and all trees are blue, which is the place where the gods live and the source of the Buddha; It is only because the great power of Buddhism can suppress the ghosts with the help of the heavenly power of this place that it is difficult for Xifeng Temple to be peaceful. But if there was no stone tower to suppress the evil ghosts, then the entire Qiyun Peak would be harmed by the powerful ghosts within a radius of five hundred miles.

This statement, I don't know how to do it, was actually accepted by the villagers, although Xifeng Temple has been unexpected, but it is always full of incense.

According to the records of the local county annals, from the middle and late Qianlong period to the Daoguang period, in the past hundred years, the large amount of incense collected by Xifeng Temple totaled more than 2 million taels of silver, of which the largest donation of silver was the son of Shanxi governor Tu Side, the wife of Hubu silver treasurer Wailang Hengqing, Yite Moshi, who donated 20,000 taels of silver at one time.

Later, Xifeng Temple was implicated in the Tongzhi period because it was found to be the hidden cultivation place of Xiao Chaogui, the western king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and was ordered to be sealed by the governor of Fujian.

However, there are also wild historical legends that the reason why Xifeng Temple was seized was because Xiao Chaogui's cronies transferred the "holy treasury" of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to Xifeng Temple for burial. However, this is only a wild historical legend, no matter what kind of historical materials it is, there is no mention of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom treasure in Xifeng Temple.

And what attracted Liu Yu to this deep mountain in Fujian was not the legendary treasure of Xifeng Temple, but the monks in Xifeng Temple.

Master Fuyuan is the only remaining full-time monk in Xifeng Temple who has a degree and a vestment. It's just that he is not a descendant of Zen Buddhism, but has inherited the Taoist lineage of the Misha Sai Department of Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism. According to his own words, his identity should be "King of Fuyuan", but when people saw him, they all loved to call him "Master Fuyuan", and after a long time, he went by them!

This master of fortune has come to Xifeng Temple to place orders since before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and he has lived for sixty-seven years. Forty years ago, after the abbot Zhiyuan, the only monk of Xifeng Temple, passed away, he naturally became the abbot of Xifeng Temple.

The appearance of this master of fortune is indeed as described by the old lady, "evil face". He had a dark face, but there was never a smile in sight. Under those two long eyebrows.

Radially spread deep wrinkles along the two eye sockets on the face, as if supporting two cobwebs; The two eyes fixed in the center of the net are so scorching, even a little vicious. However, he did not open his eyes lightly, and always half-squinted.

Even if you are half-squinting, you can make people feel that there are two hot gadgets hidden there! Especially the look on his face! There is movement in stillness, and there is heat in cold.

Although the intertwined wrinkles seemed to show his aging; Those thin lips that are always spurting, and they seem to have loose muscles, and they can no longer say anything surprising, but somehow, as soon as you see him, it still gives you a mysterious and indescribable sense of threat, like seeing a male lion lying on the ground resting.

That's how Liu Yu feels now. Under the gaze of Master Fuyuan, the hairs on the back of his neck all stood up, and the true qi in his body involuntarily operated, and his body was ready to prepare for it autonomously.

"Overnight?" After looking at Liu Yu, Master Fuyuan frowned slightly and said, "The temple is too small to tolerate people, the donor will still be in the town, right?" ”

"Isn't Buddhism exquisite, convenient with others, and convenient for yourself?" Liu Yuqiang jumped patiently, tried to calm down the agitated qi and blood, and said indifferently: "It's not early, my car is out of gas, in order to avoid walking at night, I can only borrow here for a night, and I hope the host will have a convenient trip." ”

Master Fuyuan closed his eyes and said coldly: "The temple is simple, there are no monks, please take care of yourself." ”

"Thank you, host."

Looking at Liu Yu's back, Master Fuyuan's face, which was originally terrifyingly cold, is now able to turn water into ice.

He walked out of the hall and looked far away.

At this time, it is the setting sun. The towering strange peaks and strange ridges, which enclose Xifeng Temple at the bottom of the valley, have already turned the surroundings into a twilight. But looking up at the sky, the sky is like clouds and fire, and the light is like fire!

The workers of the ancient construction team who repaired the temple have already returned to the station to eat and rest. The three-story hall is surrounded by horizontal and vertical scaffolding, which makes people look very chaotic.

Master Fuyuan stretched out his hand to touch the scaffolding erected by the heavy repair temple, looked up at the new corridor flower murals renovated by the old painters of the ancient construction team, and felt that his heart was heavy as if he was loaded with three taels of lead.

Speaking from the heart, he has been here for more than 60 years, and he also hopes that the temple will be re-glorified and the Buddha's light will shine. However, when the day was about to come, he had a wonderful premonition, as if something that would greatly affect the course of his life was about to be born.

Especially this afternoon, the three young people who continued to enter the temple on 6 days, after seeing them with good strength, Master Fuyuan's premonition was even stronger!

On Master Fuyuan's cold face, the wrinkles gathered and eased rapidly, followed by a few sneers--well, if you come, you will be safe. Gods and ghosts have spirits, red dust is like a sea, when it is time to see, it is natural to know.

Thinking of this, he looked around at the twilight, listened to the hanging bell that the breeze blew and trembled, followed the jingling bell, and re-entered the main hall. He knelt down in front of the Buddha, sat down, prayed to God with his eyes in his eyes, and prayed silently with his mouth in the scriptures.

Coming to the dilapidated monk's house and seeing the two people who were cleaning the monk's house, Liu Yu couldn't help but be surprised: "Two Xia Shi brothers, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here!" ”

Xia Yuzhe and Xia Yuguang were even more surprised, and after looking at Liu Yu in a daze, they hurriedly returned the salute: "Yes, I really didn't expect that Brother Liu would appear here?" ”

"I was attracted by your traveler journey, so I learned from it."

The two brothers of the Xia family obviously didn't believe Liu Yu's words, and after glancing at each other, Xia Yuguang smiled and said: "The three of us are too fateful, and in less than four days, we met twice ......."

Regarding Xia Yuguang's deliberate emphasis on the word "chance encounter", Liu Yu didn't care, but responded with an indifferent smile.

Xia Yuzhe grabbed Xia Yuguang, who was still talking, and asked, "Brother Liu, I don't know where your innate master senior brother is now?" ”

Seeing the admiration in Xia Yuzhe's eyes, Liu Yu felt slightly proud: "Senior Brother Lou has decided to become my family's worship, and now he has settled in the capital." ”

"Huh?!" Although there were some speculations, Xia Yuzhe and Xia Yuguang were still surprised, and the former did not hide his envy: "Brother Liu, this can be regarded as a precedent for our three major families!" I think how strong our three major families are, but for decades, none of them have been able to recruit innate level martial artists, and when I was walking outside, I could see that many people took this matter as a joke! Brother Liu, you're amazing......"

In terms of "history", the real "pioneer" is Xia Yuzhe himself, and now when he hears his "envy, jealousy and hatred", Liu Yu is not uncomfortable. For him, one of the missions after being reborn is to "go to other people, so that others have no way out"!

After chatting with the two brothers of the Xia family for a while, the three of them separated, found two monks' houses far away, and rested separately.

Relying on his strong ear, Liu Yu not only listened to the movements of the two brothers of the Xia family, but also paid attention to the abbot's room where Master Fuyuan lived. Fortunately, the dilapidated Xifeng Temple is far from being as large-scale as it was in history, and with Liu Yu's ear power, he can barely include the monk's house and the abbot's room into the scope of monitoring.

Xia Yuzhe and Xia Yuguang discussed Liu Yu's appearance for a while, and after not having much clue, they fell asleep separately, perhaps because of the fatigue of the journey, they soon had a slight snoring, obviously falling asleep.

But Master Fuyuan was not the case here, Liu Yu obviously heard the sound of him turning over and getting out of bed, getting dressed and putting on shoes.

After Master Fuyuan opened the door and left, Liu Yu also left the monk's house silently. With Liu Yu's strength at the Qi level, it is not too difficult to hide from the two brothers of the Xia family, who are only at the peak of the Transformation Strength level.

As soon as he left the door, Liu Yu heard a "squeak" sound from afar, and knew that this was Master Fuyuan who opened the temple door and went outside.

Liu Yu quickly ran to the base of the wall, jumped up, lay on the wall with both hands, and looked around. I saw Master Fuyuan walking along the mountain path behind the wall, in the direction of the Futu Forest. The night was very dark, but Master Fuyuan's footsteps were very urgent, and he soon disappeared into the darkness.

Liu Yu chased him to Futu Forest, but Master Fuyuan was gone. He had to look everywhere. This Futu forest is not large, but because the trees are all thousand-year-old acacia trees, the leaves are dense and shady, and the forest appears even darker. If it weren't for Liu Yu's physique being transformed by inexplicable strength, and his eyes were like ordinary people, I'm afraid that he wouldn't be looking for someone now, even if he looked at the tree, he couldn't see clearly.

At this moment, a terrible strange sound came from under the stone tower in the distance, disturbing the floating slaughter forest and echoing in this heaven and earth.

Immediately after, under the stone tower, a strange wind suddenly rose. The wind column formed by the strange wind sweeping through the sand and stones was as thick as a bucket, and it moved erratically in the clearing around the stone tower. As the wind became more and more terrible, the strange wind began to light, and within a few minutes, the wind pillar turned red, like a cylindrical lantern, illuminating the nearby open field in a dim light.

This strange wind is strange, appearing quickly, whistling back and forth in the wilderness of this valley, and it is indeed daunting. Especially the kind of strange scream it makes, non-human and non-beast, like a roar, and a little poignant, it is easy to think of the kind of scream that can't stand the extreme fright.

It is estimated that this should be the kind of ghost wind that can cut people's heads in the mouth of the old lady!

However, Liu Yu was not afraid, but there was a light in his eyes. He stood up and chased the strange wind as fast as he could. When he was three or four meters away from the strange wind, he felt the scorching heat wave coming out of the wind column.

And so it was! It's really him!

(One hour late, forgive me!!) ）
