Chapter 264: Meet a Foreigner Again
Li Xiang and Ji Xinyan didn't notice that this monk came to their side, and they looked at each other, knowing that this monk was probably not ordinary. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, since it was in Shaolin Temple, it was not uncommon to meet a monk who was good at kung fu, and the two of them bowed slightly to the monk.
"Master, you mean the tour guide is talking nonsense?" Ji Xinyan asked directly.
The monk smiled slightly, and said: "What the tour guide said is indeed incorrect, the four heavenly kings in this Heavenly King Hall are the famous guardian gods in my Buddhism, also known as the four heavenly kings who protect the world." ”
Seeing Ji Xinyan listening carefully, the monk continued: "The king of the East holds the country, holding the pipa; The king of southern growth, holding a sword; The wide-eyed king of the West, holding a jewel in his hand; The king of heaven in the north is holding a treasure flag. ”
After hearing this, Ji Xinyan nodded suddenly and muttered, "So that's the case, what about the four generals of the demon family?" ”
The monk smiled and didn't answer Ji Xinyan, Li Xiang had no choice but to say: "The four generals of the demon family are the four characters in the novel "Romance of the Gods", called Mo Liqing, Mo Lihai, Mo Lihong, and Mo Lishou, the four brothers, the author of the novel is far-fetched, and connects them with the four heavenly kings in Buddhism. ”
"Oh, I see!" Ji Xinyan suddenly realized, and the monk also smiled.
Ji Xinyan then frowned slightly and asked, "Master, since you know that what the tour guide said is wrong, why don't you correct him?" ”
When the monk heard this, he folded his hands together and said, "Amitabha, a lifelong fool, it is difficult to see things as they are, and he is often obsessed with his heart, even if he points out the clear path, it is difficult to resolve the obsession in the hearts of sentient beings. Only with enlightenment can we be liberated. ”
Ji Xinyan rolled her eyes, and said in her heart, if you don't explain it to the tourists, forget it, and come up with such a set of theories, and everything you listen to is foggy.
"Li Xiang, let's go around somewhere else." Ji Xinyan turned her head to Li Xiang and said, she had no interest in that monk.
Li Xiang nodded and said to the monk, "Master, we won't bother and take our leave." ”
The monk folded his hands and saluted: "Donor, please take care of yourself, if you need any help from the poor monks, you can find the monks in the temple to give me a message, and the poor monks are called Shi Yongren." ”
Shi Yongren? It seems that the abbot of Shaolin Temple is called Shi Yong or something, it seems that the rank of this monk is not low.
Since the other party threw a friendly olive branch to himself, he couldn't be rude, and bowed slightly and smiled: "Then thank you master, don't trouble us when the time comes." ”
Shi Yongren shouted a Buddha name and walked along the path leisurely.
Ji Xinyan was really bored waiting, and when she saw Shi Yongren leaving, she hurriedly pulled Li Xiang to the temple, and there were still many scenes in it that she hadn't seen.
Out of the Tianwang Palace, into a courtyard, what you see is a stone statue of Bodhidharma Patriarch, and there is a couplet on it: "A reed crosses the Yangtze River for nine years, and the ancient temple of two mountains pays homage to ten directions."
This is naturally the legend of the Bodhidharma patriarch crossing the river with a reed, but Li Xiang can see that although this stone carving is exquisite and vivid, it is indeed a modern handicraft, that is, for tourists to watch.
"Li Xiang, come and see this tree!" Ji Xinyan on the side shouted.
Li Xiang walked over following Ji Xinyan's voice, and what he saw was an ancient acacia, which looked like it should be some years old, with a thick trunk and lush branches and leaves.
Li Xiang looked at it for a long time and asked, "What's wrong with this tree?" ”
Ji Xinyan rolled her eyes and said impatiently, "Do you have a problem with your eyes?" Look at what's on the trunk of this tree? ”
Li Xiang has a black line, and there is a problem with his eyes? I can be farsighted and see-through! If there is a problem with your own eyes, won't everyone else be blind?
However, Li Xiang naturally would not argue with Ji Xinyan on this issue, and directly ignored Ji Xinyan's ridicule and looked at the trunk of the ancient acacia.
It turns out that on the trunk of this ancient locust tree, there are some small holes densely packed with different depths.
Ji Xinyan looked at the small holes in the trunk, frowned and said, "How did these holes come from?" It's not like it's eaten by insects, and how can a temple as big as Shaolin Temple be eaten by insects? Li Xiang, what do you say is going on? ”
Ji Xinyan waited for a long time, but she didn't hear Li Xiang answer her words, she couldn't help but be a little angry, turned her head and was about to question Li Xiang, but saw Li Xiang frowning, staring at the small holes with a serious expression, and in the end, she stretched out her index finger and inserted it into the small holes.
To Ji Xinyan's surprise, the thickness of Li Xiang's index finger was similar to the size of the small hole, which was very consistent, and she subconsciously asked, "What's going on?" ”
"Xinyan, do you know the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin Temple?" Li Xiang didn't answer Ji Xinyan, but asked Ji Xinyan.
Ji Xinyan nodded and said, "Of course I know, these seventy-two stunts are divided into thirty-six external skills and thirty-six internal skills, which are the unpassed skills of Shaolin Temple." ”
Seeing Li Xiang nodding, Ji Xinyan suddenly said, "You mean that the small hole in the trunk of this tree was left when practicing Shaolin stunts?" ”
Li Xiang nodded and said, "Yes, according to my guess, this should be left by the one-finger Zen in Shaolin Kung Fu." ”
Ji Xinyan also stretched out her index finger and put it into the small hole in the trunk of the tree, and couldn't help but admire: "Shaolin kung fu is really good, if this finger power is poked on a person, it is not a hole in the eye." ”
Li Xiang nodded and agreed with Ji Xinyan's statement, but just by comparing this finger power, now that he is at the peak of the third layer of the Heavenly Technique, he is definitely not worse than this.
Then the two continued to visit other landscapes in Shaolin, especially when they walked to the abbot's room, the lights inside were still on, but it was forbidden to enter here, and many tourists were waiting outside the abbot's room, wanting to see the demeanor of the Shaolin abbot.
However, Li Xiang saw through a pair of divine eyes and through the door wall of the abbot's room, and had already found that there was no one inside, and it seemed that this group of tourists was going to wait in vain.
"Li Xiang, look over there." Ji Xinyan shouted in a low voice again.
Li Xiang was a little speechless, this Ji Xinyan is too good at making a fuss, let herself see if she encounters a little thing, it's really endless, but there is no way, who let this trip out to play with her.
Li Xiang squeezed out a smile and asked, "What's wrong, Xinyan?" I've seen something strange again. ”
Ji Xinyan pointed to a group of people not far away and said, "Li Xiang, look at those foreigners. ”
Li Xiang looked in the direction pointed by Ji Xinyan, and sure enough, he found a few foreigners, but Shaolin Temple, as a tourist attraction of civilization all over the world, it is too normal to have a few foreigners.
Seeing that Li Xiang didn't react, Ji Xinyan stomped her feet angrily and said angrily: "Aren't those foreigners the ones I met on the train?" (To be continued.) )
