345, Guanwa Palace, transformed into a pure land treasure temple
Because I don't know which station Zhen Shirui will get off at which station, Zi Hao will inform her whereabouts at any time, so that the two-way follow-up can also prevent her from escaping accidentally. Ai Songyang's car was occupied by Zhang Ledao and Shi Tianyi, Wu Yanqing drove a yellow-robed car with Sheng Long, and Cheng Tianle drove Wu Yanqing's white BMW alone.
On this way, Ai Songyang and Zhang Ledao both received several phone calls, and after listening to them, their expressions were somewhat embarrassed, and they couldn't help but smile relatively bitterly, and then discussed in the car, and these situations were unknown to Cheng Tianle and the demons.
I thought that there might be a little trouble when tracking, but it turned out to be very smooth, because Zhen Shirui sat all the way to the terminal Mudu. Mudu is an ancient water town with a history of more than 100 years with a history of 2,5345 and a palace of pavilions. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Wangfu sent to the top of Lingyan Mountain in the suburbs of Gusu to build the Pavilion Doll Palace for Xi Shi, "three years to gather timber, five years to become", the timber of the palace was transported along the waterway in a steady stream, under the Lingyan Mountain, "building blocks are plugged", and the wood is named after this.
Nowadays, Mudu is the first of the thirteen scenic spots in Taihu Lake, and there are many ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River and many gardens in Suzhou, but Mudu is almost unique, and the whole town is like a classical Chinese garden. The small bridge is traversed by flowing water, and there are gardens in the garden, and there are more than 30 royal and private gardens in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Flowing through the Xu River at the foot of Lingyan Mountain, it may be the first artificial canal in China since there are clear historical records, and it is said that it was built by Wu Zixu, that is, the waterway that transports building materials to the Lingyan Mountain Xiuguan Wagong. The Xiangxi that passes through the ancient town is named after Xi Shi who dresses up here and the water is fragrant. Every creek, every ancient bridge, and even every stone on Lingyan Mountain here has a long and magical legend.
Next to the ancient town of Mudu is Lingyan Mountain, the beauty Xi Shi once lived in the Guanwa Palace has long been destroyed in the Spring and Autumn War, here is now the famous Buddhist Pure Land Sect Dojo in our country. The earliest in the Jin Dynasty pavilion baby palace left on the foundation built on the temple, at that time called 345, pavilion baby palace, turned into the pure land treasure temple Chongbao Temple, the Liang Dynasty and changed the name of Xiufeng Temple, the Tang Dynasty began to call Lingyan Mountain Temple.
There is a Lingyan Tower on Lingyan Mountain, and there are natural rocks in front of the tower such as Ganoderma lucidum, and there are all kinds of strange stones in the mountain. Such as stone drums, stone hair, stone snakes, stone turtles, stone rabbits, stone oxen, stone horses, stone cats, stone rats, stone tigers, all of which are vivid and interesting, and Lingyan Mountain is named because of this.
After Zhen Shirui got off the bus, she did not enter Mudu Town, but turned right and climbed the steps and went up Lingyan Mountain. Cheng Tianle and others also followed. In order not to attract Zhen Shirui's attention, they did not get together, but scattered from different roads to outflank them from afar, leaving only Zi Hao at the front.
Cheng Tianle was a little puzzled, how could Zhen Shirui come to this place, this is the famous Pure Land Dojo, and it is also a tourist scenic spot where people come and go. It's dawn now. Tourists have not yet arrived in large numbers, but there are already many devout people who have come to worship on the mountain road, the morning bell has been struck, and the monks in the temple are doing their morning lessons. If you openly use demon magic to harm people here, you can't imagine it, and looking at Zhen Shirui's appearance, she is here to make incense.
Zhen Shirui walked through the Jilu Pavilion, and there was a couplet on the pavilion pillar: "A big road, so here we go up together; Good mountains on all sides. Come back and look at it differently", she stopped and looked at it for a long time. Continue to pass by the purple bamboo Guanyin Cave, there are pieces of purple bamboo planted outside the hole, and the Guanyin is engraved in the hole. Zhen Shirui looked reverent, burned incense and bowed, and then climbed to the top of the mountain and entered the Lingyan Mountain Temple. Maitreya and Veda in the Tianwang Palace, Buddha, Ka Ye, and Ananda in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, Manjushri, Fuxian, and Zhen Shirui in the corner all worship one by one, and the last worship is still the island Guanyin on the back wall of the main hall.
The demons are also confused when they follow one after another, is it a mistake today? But if Zhen Shirui came to Lingyan Mountain Temple to make incense, why did she go out alone before dawn, even Hu Weihua didn't wake up, and she still carried the magic weapon with her? It may also be that what she is going to do makes her feel uneasy, so she first goes to the monastery and offers incense to ask the Bodhisattva for blessing or forgiveness. Especially the Guanyin who is compassionate and compassionate, and saves the suffering. The statue of Guanyin here has beautiful makeup and beautiful posture, and it is a graceful female body bodhisattva on the lotus seat.
Looking at Zhen Shirui's respectful incense all the way, Cheng Tianle was embarrassed to wander around with his hands behind his back, since he entered the Buddhist dojo, as a monk, he always had to show his courtesy, so he secretly instructed the demons to pay money for incense, and find a bodhisattva who is pleasing to the eye to worship. Be respectful.
And Zhen Shirui really didn't just come to incense, when she came out of Lingyan Mountain Temple, she didn't go down the mountain along the original road, but walked into the deep wilderness behind. Lingyan Mountain is not high, only more than 200 meters, but it looks quite green and deep. After leaving the tourist scenic route, the idlers are gradually not seen in the mountains, the walls are everywhere such as cutting, the spirit stones are all over the lush mountains and forests, and the terrain is very complex. Fortunately, Zi Hao's spiritual sense is extremely keen, Zhen Shirui has internal injuries, and her breath is not perfectly constricted, and she can keep up with her whereabouts at any time in the mountains.
Huang Shang, Wu Yanqing, Chu Wufu, Wu Jiaming, Sheng Long and other five demons took advantage of the cover of the terrain to follow behind Zi Hao not far away, while Cheng Tianle opened a distance to follow behind the demons, and Zhang Ledao and Ai Songyang could not be seen around, and they estimated that they would take another road.
Lingyan Mountain is named after Lingyan, there is a kind of stone purple here, the texture is delicate and can be used as an inkstone, Cheng Tianle saw the naturally formed stone ox, stone horse, stone dog, stone pig, stone rat, and two mountain stones that resemble snakes, and can't help but feel a little funny, these demon cultivators around him may be able to find the original shape here.
The historical precipitation of the whole Lingyan Mountain is too heavy, not only the Wuwangjing, Bangyue Pond, Qintai left by the Xi Shi era, but also various relics of the past dynasties, and the solemn dojo of Buddhism. When Cheng Tianle had just started to practice and triggered his spiritual sense, he once investigated an ancient well in front of the Xuanmiao Temple, and his divine sense was swept into people and he almost fainted, and on this Lingyan Mountain, if he was a disciple who had just started his cultivation and had not yet cultivated the appearance of the Yuan Shen, he could not use his divine sense to investigate at will. Walking here, you may be able to understand why since ancient times, all sects of cultivation have required their disciples to become teachers, because if the cultivation is not enough, they really can't use spells at will.
On Lingyan Mountain, looking at Taihu Lake in the distance and near Mudu, the scenery is beautiful and pleasant, but Zhen Shirui's expression is not appreciating the scenery, and as she gets deeper and deeper in the mountains, her gaze becomes more and more cold, revealing a compelling chill. There is a piece of Xiangjing at the southern foot of Lingyan Mountain, which is said to be a place for Xi Shi to pick and plant herbs, Zhen Shirui has made a big circle in the mountain, and it is impossible for ordinary people to follow her.
She finally crossed Caixiangjing into the dense forest, followed a path over the ridge and into an open field surrounded by towering verdant trees, surrounded by strange rocks. She took out the python tambourine she had brought with her, and stood silently, as if waiting for someone.
This place is very secretive, avoiding the eyes and ears of others, but it is also convenient for the demons to touch and form an ambush. Although Zhen Shirui inspected the surrounding mountains and forests and strange rocks, the demons only sneaked up after she checked, and surrounded the glade from different directions, and had quietly formed a formation. They hid very well, not only did they perform the method of restricting demonic energy taught by Cheng Tianle, but also completely integrated into the earthly environment, like a tree, a dirt bag or a stone, which was taught by Melander, and Cheng Tianle also passed on to the demons.
Zhen Shirui's cultivation should not be low, but she has not yet broken through the realm of the Xuanqi Demon Pill, which can be seen, then the combination of demons is enough to restrain her, and if she forms a formation in advance, it will be even more foolproof. The Four Gods and Twelve Seasons Great Array taught by Cheng Tianle theoretically requires twelve masters to be arranged, but at least three people are enough. When Shenglong won the golden thread rat in Ningbo, it was Huang Shang, Chu Wufu, Wu Yanqing and other three people who formed a formation, and now Wu Jiaming and Sheng Long have been added to the formation.
Zi Hao replaced Cheng Tianle's original role in Ningbo at this moment, standing outside the magic circle as a conductor; Cheng Tianle stood on the ridge of the mountain where Zhen Shirui walked when he came in the distance, and saw the open land and the situation on the mountain road clearly through the shadows of the trees. This distance is neither far nor close, and he happens to be able to talk to Zi Hao in the Yuan Shen at any time.
Since Zhen Shirui looked like she was waiting for someone, Cheng Tianle also told Zi Hao not to do it in a hurry, let's see who she wanted to see first, and whether she had made an appointment to meet the next victim here. After about half an hour, a man's voice came from the other direction of the open field: "My beautiful snake, you look very anxious!" It's not yet the appointed noon, so early in the morning? ”
Zhen Shirui's face was like frost, and the five fingers of her left hand clasped the tambourine and replied coldly: "Cao Kuang, aren't you also in a hurry?" Also arrived early! ”
As he spoke, a man in black walked out of the dense forest at the other end of the open field. He was originally shaved and now had a short layer of stubble, described as about thirty or forty years old, with a thin waist and shaved shoulders, a slender figure, very white skin as if there was no blood, but his lips were bright red, and his eyes were slightly tinged with a light blue luster, which looked quite bewitching.
As soon as this person appeared, he unfolded his divine sense to probe the surroundings, showing his aura without any scruples. Cheng Tianle was taken aback, he almost didn't stomp his feet and screamed, and hurriedly shouted to Zi Hao in the Yuan Shen: "We found the wrong person, and we found the right person!" It's not Zhen Shirui, now this person is the evil demon! I really didn't expect that they were the same kind of demon cultivators, and their original bodies were all pythons! ”
As soon as the man named Cao Kuang appeared, Cheng Tianle immediately clearly sensed his unfolding vitality and rhythm characteristics, which was no different from the "demonic aura" left at the scene of the murder. And Zhen Shirui's so-called "demonic energy" is very similar to him, but it lacks a sense of viciousness and violence, no wonder Cheng Tianle was puzzled for a while, it turned out that the original bodies of these two demons were the same. rq!!!
