Seeing Lin Yi explain like this, the girls didn't say anything anymore, just talked to each other, their voices were very low, and they couldn't hear what they said clearly, but from time to time some evasive eyes fell on Lin Yi, and when Lin Yi looked at him, he quickly avoided it. After a few glances at the pen "Fun" pavilion www.biquge.info Lin Yi simply ignored it and drank fragrant tea quietly.

Soon, the waiter came back, holding a bottle of dry white wine in his hand, Lin Yi nodded, indicating that this was the case, and then the waiter reported the amount of seafood one by one, there was no problem, Lin Yi recognized them one by one.

"If it's okay, I'll place an order!" The waiter said respectfully.

Lin Yi replied with a smile, "No problem, you can place an order!" Tell the kitchen to hurry up. ”

When the waiter went out again, the swallow dragged a long note in a strange tone, learning the waiter's words just now, "If it's okay, I'll lay eggs...... I'd love to go along and see how she lays her eggs, isn't it said that humans are viviparous? Moreover, the performance here is so special, it is actually a performance to lay eggs......"

Lin Yi was made to cry and laugh by her again, this swallow is also a living treasure, I don't know how Tingting knew her.

After the dishes came up, Lin Yi had a good time with them, but this dinner was very pleasant, infected by their youthful atmosphere, Lin Yi also smiled from ear to ear all night.

After the meal, a few girls took a taxi and left, and Lin Yi took Tingting home.

On the way, Tingting suddenly came to Lin Yi, smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be really expensive, this meal is not cheap, right?" For the sake of your sincerity, I'll tell you a secret. Swallow seems to like you a lot, how about it, do you want me to help you be a middleman?! ”

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said lightly, "I'm sorry, I already have a girlfriend, and besides, her personality is not suitable for me." ”

Tingting still rolled her eyes, "Cut, you are quite loyal to your girlfriend--- is she very beautiful?" ”

Lin Yi smiled and didn't answer again.

When she was about to break up, Tingting seemed to have something to say, but Lin Yi said first, "I'm going to leave Shanghai in two days." ”

"Are you really leaving?" Tingting glanced at him with beautiful eyes.

Lin Yi nodded, "Yes, it's time to leave." I'm not from here, after all. And I've got almost all the books I like. ”

"You're really a book hunter?"

"Why, you still don't believe it?" Lin Yiwaner.

Tingting shook her head, nodded again, and finally said, "Have a good trip." ”

Both were silent.

Lin Yi was a little embarrassed, after all, her ability was limited and she couldn't help her.

After a while, Tingting suddenly smiled and said, "Since you are about to leave, then accompany me to a place tomorrow." ”

"Well, where to go?"

"Longhua Temple!"

……

It is said that there is an ancient temple in the suburbs of Shanghai, but when you see the floating slaughter into the clouds, the peach and plum are covered, this is the famous Longhua Ancient Temple.

Speaking of this ancient temple, there is a moving legend. It is said that during the Three Kingdoms period, the prime minister of Xicheng Kangju had an eldest son, whose single name was Hui. He is not in love with wealth, see through the red dust, determined to become a monk, known as the "Kang Seng Association", the Kang Seng Association adhering to the Buddha's will, came to China to spread Buddhism, and made good connections, he traveled east in Shanghai, Suzhou area. One day, when I came to Longhuadang, I saw that the water and sky were the same color here, and the dust was not clean, and I thought it was a treasure land for cultivation, so I settled here and lived here. He didn't know that the reason why the scenery here was quiet and extraordinary was because the Dragon King of Guangze built the Dragon Palace here. When the Dragon King of Guangze saw that a monk had come to live, he was very unhappy. For a while, he had an evil thought, and he wanted to stir up the wind and fog, overturn the monk's grass house, and scare the monk away. However, the dragon king suddenly found that there was a millilight radiating from the grass house, and there were five-colored auspicious clouds on it, and the dragon king was taken aback. The Dragon King listened for a while, and was moved by the Buddha's decree recited by the monk, he not only dispelled the original evil thoughts, but also stepped forward and said to the Kang Seng Society: I wish to go back to the East China Sea to live, and give the Dragon King Palace to the Kang Seng Society to build Fanyu. Kang Sangha accepted the kindness of the Dragon King, he rebuilt the Dragon Palace into Longhua Temple, and also made a special trip to Nanjing to visit Sun Quan, the monarch of Wu, and asked him to help build a pagoda so that he could place the Buddha relics he had invited. In this way, 13 more stupas were built in Longhua Temple, and 13 Buddha relics were placed.

The story of Sun Quan's construction of the Longhua Pagoda is well known to women and children in Shanghai. But this is only a legend with a mythological tinge. Judging from historical records, Longhua Temple and Longhua Pagoda were probably built during the Northern Song Dynasty. In any case, Longhua Temple is a thousand-year-old historical monument, from the Ming Dynasty, "Longhua Evening Bell" is one of the "Eight Views of Shanghai".

There are many monuments like Longhua Temple in Shanghai. But as a city, Shanghai is still relatively young. Before the Ming Dynasty, Shanghai was still a scattered township. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, in order to resist the invasion of the Japanese invaders, the city wall was built, and the scale of the city was gradually formed. After the signing of the unequal Treaty of Nanjing, Shanghai became one of the five treaty ports. The imperialist powers vied with each other to open concessions, set up banks, set up factories, and control shipping and finance. Shanghai has become an "adventurer's paradise", known as the "Ten Mile Ocean Field", but the population is increasing and forming an industrial base.

Today, Shanghai has emerged from its colonial position. After decades of construction after the liberation, Shanghai has become China's largest industrial base and commercial center, and has stepped into the ranks of the world's super cities.

The next day, Lin Yi borrowed a car and waited for Tingting at the agreed place. According to Tingting, she will act as a guide today and lead Lin Yi to visit this Longhua Temple.

When Tingting appeared, Lin Yi handed her a breakfast, started the car, and said, "I have already eaten, I ate there after calling you before, I guess you didn't eat, so I'll bring you one." It should still be hot now. Hurry up and eat it! ”

Tingting looked at Lin Yi. Suddenly leaned over, kissed Lin Yi lightly on the face, and then ate the soy milk sweetly.

Lin Yi touched his cheek. I didn't feel a little stunned, but then I thought that maybe it was just her whim and inadvertent move, and I was relieved.

With Tingting as a guide, Lin Yi drove the borrowed car and didn't take long to come to the gate of the famous Longhua Temple.

After buying the ticket, Tingting had to hold Lin Yi's hand, although she felt a little awkward, but thinking that the two were about to separate, she didn't do dark things, so she was afraid of anything, so she went with her.

In March and April, the pines and cypresses are still green, in the warm sunshine but no wind in the spring is particularly dazzling, walking on both sides of the green path, let people's hearts out of thin air give birth to a few points of ethereal feeling, for the adjustment of the tense life mode is very good.

After walking for more than two hours, Lin Yi finally returned to the bottom of the mountain, according to Tingting's meaning, he wanted to go to the temple to worship, but Lin Yi had never been interested in these, so he stood on the lawn at the entrance of the temple and watched the pious pilgrims coming in and out. For these, Lin Yi is respectful. Although Lin Yi himself does not have much faith, he has great respect for those who have devout beliefs.

Seeing Tingting buy a few pillars of incense, reverently light them on the candle flame, and then follow some pilgrims to the temple gate, Lin Yi found a secluded place, opened the mineral water and drank a few sips.

Looking around, Lin Yi saw that there was a fifth-level pagoda on the right side of the temple that was more than ten meters high, so he stopped on it for a while. It was very strange that Lin Yi saw a monk standing under the tower, although it was quite far away, but Lin Yi always felt that the corners of his eyes were smiling slightly, and that smile seemed to be prepared for him. Looking at it again, the monk suddenly raised his hand slightly at Lin Yi, Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and did not react, but saw the monk raise his hand to Lin He again.

Lin Yi couldn't react anymore, so he pointed to the tip of his nose with a stunned face. The monk seemed to see Lin Yi's movements, and nodded at him slightly, as if telling Lin Yi that he was beckoning at him just now.

Although he was very puzzled, Lin Yi still walked slowly towards the pagoda.

Walking to the bottom of the tower, the monk stood on his chest with one hand facing Lin Yi and bowed deeply, "Donor, the little monk is polite." ”

Lin Yi hurriedly did the same, and said, "Hello master, the master just summoned me over?" ”

The monk smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the temple, "Donor, please come with the little monk......

Seeing that this monk was strange, Lin Yi was very puzzled, but obviously the other party would not have any ill will towards him, so he also followed him and slowly walked towards the temple.

The monk took Lin Yi along the path outside the temple and walked to the right side of the temple wall, and he said slowly, "The donor was with his friends just now, why don't you go to worship?" ”

Lin Yi smiled, but he didn't expect this monk to be meticulously observant, "My friend incense is faith, I don't have much faith, I just like to be at peace with what happens." ”

The monk half-turned, a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but he could see clearly when he reached the place where the sun was shading.

"Why doesn't the donor believe in my Buddha?"

Lin Yi shook his head, "It's hard to say, the belief is too profound." ”

The monk still smiled faintly, not surprised, "The implementer doesn't say it, and the little monk also knows that although the donor doesn't believe in Buddhism, he is a little hesitant in his heart." Seeing that there was a doubt in Lin Yi's eyes, the monk shook his hand, "The donor doesn't need to ask, the little monk naturally knows." The little monk came to ask you, the fifth-level pagoda just now, does the donor know what kind of pagoda it is? ”

Lin Yi's mind turned quickly, and suddenly thought that Longhua Temple is also a thousand-year-old temple, which seems to have been established by Sun Quan, and there are many monks who have passed away here, and the tower ......

Thinking of this, Lin Yi nodded firmly, "Master, I know, it should be a relic, right?" ”

The monk still smiled faintly, and reached out to the back of Lin Yi's head, "Look! ”

Lin Yi didn't look back, because he could already see from the expression on the monk's face that there was nothing behind him at all, but he didn't know what he meant.

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't react, the monk drew a circle in front of Lin Yi and asked him, "What is this?" ”

Lin Yi thought for a moment, "Circle! ”

"But the little monk had a movement in his hand just now......"

Lin Yi replied without hesitation, "It's still a circle, a circle with a beginning and an end." ”

The monk nodded, and the smile on his face retracted, "The donor is really a person with wise roots, and the little monk has one last question." ”

"Master, please speak."

"Aren't you tired of carrying all this on your back? It's like going up the mountain just now, you have a lot of worries, and even the pace of going down the mountain is messy. Has the donor ever thought about letting go of his paranoia? ”

Lin Yi smiled, "The master has been paying attention to me?" ”

The monk didn't answer, but pointed to the sun with his finger, Lin Yi suddenly realized, he was inferred from Lin Yi's current state to Lin Yi's previous state, so he answered honestly, "The Buddha pays attention to both benefits, and the world pays attention to self-attainment." Those who are also benevolent naturally do not need to be paranoid, and paranoia is harmful, and if the self-attained person has no paranoia, how can he rise to the top? I appreciate the master's kindness, but this is the ...... It doesn't seem to work for me......"

Lin Yi said this simple sentence, but his voice gradually became high-pitched, quite angry, and Lin Yi was also quite remorseful after speaking, after all, people have good intentions, and if they don't want to listen to it, they don't seem to have to refute it so directly.

However, the monk was not annoyed, and still smiled, "The donor has studied the Buddhist scriptures when he sees it." ”

Lin Yi was unconsciously a little arrogant when he heard it, "I like to read, and I also read miscellaneously, like the "Diamond Sutra" and "Ranga Sutra" are my favorites, so I know a little bit about ......."

The monk raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh, I wonder if the donor can talk about the subtleties of comprehending these two Buddhist scriptures?" ”

Lin Yi thought about it for a while, and remembered that he seemed to have read these two scriptures in the past, especially the scriptures in his collection, these two books were also his favorites, so he also had a little experience.

"Now is not the time to talk in detail, I will briefly summarize that the "Diamond Sutra" is nothing more than two to put down in Xiao Ke's view; And the "Ranga Sutra" illustrates a truth, there are five diseases in life: greed, hatred, joy, anger, and sorrow, and among the five diseases, the one that does the least harm to the human body is the happy disease. The smiling face is also clean all day long. ”

The monk smiled again and stretched out his hand to Lin Yi's head, "Then may I ask the donor, have you ever done it?" Have you ever done it by replacing greed, anger, and sorrow with joy and sickness? ”

Lin Yi didn't think about it, "Master Shicai just said why be paranoid, but at this moment, he seems to be paranoid about Xiao Ke's state of mind......"

The monk was stunned for a moment, and immediately paused, "Okay, I also know that this is the result." Planting its cause and repaying its effect, it is indeed the little monk who is obsessed, and the sin is ......"

Lin Yi looked at the time, it was close to twelve o'clock, and it was estimated that Tingting should also come out of the temple at this time, so he bowed to the monk, bent down slightly, and said, "If the master has nothing else to do, I still have friends waiting for me outside the temple gate, so I will go first." ”

The monk smiled and took off the string of prayer beads he was hanging from his neck, "After all, the donor is a person who is destined for my Buddha, and the little monk who has this Buddha nature in the lay family has really never seen it." Seeing each other is fate, and the little monk has nothing else to give, so this string of prayer beads will be given to the donor...... This string of prayer beads has been following the little monk for more than 30 years. ”

Hearing this, Lin Yi was stunned, this monk looked only in his twenties, at best, he was as old as himself, how could he say that the rosary had been with him for more than thirty years?

"Dare to ask Master Gui Geng?"

The monk laughed, "But the donor looks at the little monk as if he is in his twenties?" In fact, the little monk is already forty and three this year. ”

I really didn't expect that there would be such benefits in concentrating on cultivating Buddhism. At that time, those women who love beauty in the world don't have to be maintained all day long, they are all monks and nuns, and they are absolutely youthful.

This thought just turned around in his heart, and he didn't dare to show a single bit on his face, Lin Yi took the string of prayer beads, but he was a little embarrassed, although he knew that this was a good thing that had been opened in the legend, such as the "monk clothes gourd king" he once knew, and he was also this kind of strange person, and the little gourd given to him was a treasure, but it was useless, how could he be embarrassed to accept it?

Seeing Lin Yi's embarrassed face, the monk brushed his sleeves and said, "The donor doesn't have to mind too much, the highest state of my Buddha is that I have a Buddha in my heart, and I will have an epiphany, pay attention to the Buddha's fate, since you have a fate with me, I should send you something, just follow the fate, no need to mind." ”

Lin Yi put the string of prayer beads in his pocket, bowed his head and bowed to the monk, "Thank you Master for your generosity......

Lin Yi turned around and wanted to leave, but the monk said behind him, "People still have some faith, and faith can sometimes be your pillar and make you stronger." ”

After hearing this, Lin Yi turned around and bowed deeply to the monk, "I've been taught!" (To be continued.) )
