463 Sunset
The old monk was not verbose, and directly took the two to the foot of the sunset tower.
Chen Houyun and Shen Rou thanked the old monk and stepped on the steps hand in hand. After ninety-nine steps, I finally stepped into this ancient pagoda.
The pagoda is very empty, and there are hardly any objects for worship.
"I heard that this place was once filled with countless Buddhist scriptures...... It's a pity that they were all scattered in the flames of war later. Chen Houyun's words were a little regretful.
"If there are still Buddhist treasures here, they won't let us in easily." Shen Rouning said softly: "You and I are not sincere to come to sweep the tower, if there is really the true body of the Buddha, we will definitely be blamed for being disrespectful and desecrating the holy land." ”
"I almost forgot, we're here to climb the moon and admire the moon." Chen Houyun smiled, folded his hands and bowed around in the middle of the lowest floor, greeted the Buddha, and then led Shen Rouning to the edge of the stairs, glanced up, and began to climb the tower.
layer 1.
Second floor.
……
Being in the land of Buddhism, with a sense of awe.
When the two of them climbed the tower, they did not speak.
There are no doors or windows on the highest floor. As soon as they boarded, the two of them clearly felt the night breeze, which made people feel the coolness immediately.
Shen Rouning stood still, looked at Jianning City, and was stunned for a moment-
A bright moon hung high in the sky, and countless silver rays sprinkled on the world.
On the street of the world, the lights of thousands of homes are bright, and it is like the heavenly river flowing slowly, not like the world!
And the two bright moons on the Pearl Lake reflect each other, beautiful like a fairy land!
"Not bad." After a long time, Chen Houyun spoke softly.
Shen Rouning nodded: "It's just that people can't tell the world and the sky." ”
"I guess Ah Ning, you'll definitely like this perspective." Chen Houyun's words implied pride. Reaching out to wrap her hand around Shen Rouning's shoulder, let her head rest on her shoulder, while leaning on the guardrail, and said softly: "I came to the Mid-Autumn Festival when I was twelve years old. At that time, when I was still young, I was shocked by what I saw in front of me, and I stood here all night......"
"So much so that I couldn't help but wonder that what I saw that night was a delusion...... So year after year, I didn't come back here. Chen Houyun's low-alcohol voice was extraordinarily gentle in the night breeze, and it lingered in Shen Rouning's ears in a low voice: "From the day we got married." I just thought. Be sure to bring you up once. ”
Shen Rouning gently leaned in front of Chen Houyun.
His broad chest blocked the night wind blowing from the northwest for her, so that she didn't notice the slightest coldness, warmth, and steadiness.
At this moment. She didn't want to say anything.
Any word. It's all redundant......
When Chen Houyun and Shen Rouning stood on the top of the sunset tower and looked at the long street with lights and lights. I didn't notice it, it was under the stupa, in the dark. There was a gray-robed monk who was looking up at the figures of the two snuggling up to each other, staring at each other for a long time.
"Honestly, what are you doing standing here?" The old monk asked in a deep voice.
"Do you know who the above two donors are?" The monk who was called to see the truth asked in a low voice. His voice sounded harsh, as if it had been damaged.
The old monk said lightly: "No matter who it is, it is our pilgrim in short." The light is weak at night, and if you look like this, you should avoid the pilgrims, so as not to frighten the pilgrims. ”
Jianzhen was silent for a moment, and said respectfully: "Yes, uncle." The little monk went back to the meditation room. After that, he came out of the darkness, but he was a young monk. He walked a few steps in the moonlight with his head down, and couldn't help but turn around and look up again. The moonlight fell on his face, but it was a face full of scars!
Shen Rouning, who was on the top of the tower, was aware of it, and glanced down, but only saw a monk walking in the clearing, so he didn't care, and continued to focus on Mingyue Lake.
The two men stood on top of the stupa for a long time. It wasn't until the bright moon hung high above her head and began to tilt to the west that she went downstairs with her hands in hand and returned satisfied.
Before leaving, Chen Houyun and Shen Rouning reverently put a stick of incense on the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and after throwing two ingots and twenty taels of silver in the merit box, they said goodbye to the old monk who opened the door for them and walked out of the Xizhao Temple.
Changchang and Hongying have been waiting outside the Xizhao Temple.
The carriage stopped at the edge of the woods.
The two men walked down the steps hand in hand and walked to the carriage, waiting for the carriage to be inspected for a long time. The two of them were talking easily, but when they saw Yuan Yuan coming over, they hugged their fists and said, "Childe, our carriage has been tampered with, and an axle has been broken, and we can't walk for the time being." ”
Shen Rou was stunned.
Who was the man who touched the carriage? Is it her or Chen Houyun's enemy?
Chen Houyun was very calm and asked, "Can it be repaired?" How long does it take? ”
Yushoji Temple is in the middle of the city. The capital has always been safe and secure, especially tonight, in order to ensure that there are no accidents, the government even mobilized the city guards to patrol constantly, except for the lucky thieves, even the scoundrels dare not make much action! Chen Houyun came out this time, and there were only four of them!
"The axle was completely broken and needed to be replaced." Gao Yuan said: "But the person who started it was very sophisticated, and he also took away the axle we prepared." So Childe, there is no way to fix it right now. ”
"Then leave the car behind." Chen Houyun thought for a moment and said, "Let's go out from here first." ”
Gao Yuan nodded, and couldn't help but look at the dense forest in front of him.
I didn't think it was anything when I came. But at this time, they knew that someone had bad intentions towards them, and when they looked at this not very long dense forest, they felt that it was full of depression and danger!
"Follow me." Chen Houyun said to Shen Rou.
"Why don't you go back to the temple for the night?" Shen Rouning asked softly.
There were only four of them. Even if she knows that Gao Yuan's martial arts are very good, among the remaining three, Chen Houyun and Hongying's martial arts are just general, very ordinary, and she herself can only be regarded as not particularly delicate, not at all about martial arts!
In case someone is ambushed in the dense forest, they will be in danger as soon as they enter!
Chen Houyun shook his head and said, "In the temple, we are also not sure if there is an ambush. We are not familiar with those monks, and if we use them, we may be attacked on our backs. He gently shook Shen Rouning's hand to show comfort and said, "Don't worry." ”
Shen Rouning believed Chen Houyun's judgment.
Gao Yuan untied the horse and walked in front with the cover of the horse.
Chen Houyun hugged Shen Rouning in his arms, and Hongying walked on the right side of the two of them to guard.
But to their surprise, nothing happened along the way! Walking out of the dense forest and arriving at the Huanhu Avenue, there was no longer an ambush, and there was no movement at all!
Shen Rouning couldn't help but feel slightly relieved, and looked back at the dense forest.
The moonlight casts dappled shadows in the dense forest. The jungle was quiet, as if there was nothing in it. The axle just now or something, it's just an illusion. (To be continued.) )
