Chapter 194: Putuo (Pink Ticket 1980 Plus Update)
Fang Xintong and Zheng Si chased them all the way to Zhoushan.
Cheng Chi still didn't see the two of them.
They stayed in Zhoushan for a day, prepared incense and candles, and went to Putuo Mountain.
When he set off in the morning, the sky was gray and a little cloudy, Zhou Shaojin was worried about the rain, but Cheng Chi said that it was okay: "It's windy today, and the sun will come out at noon." ”
Zhou Shaojin didn't understand this, and when it was almost dawn (ten o'clock in the morning), the sun really showed its face.
Aren't these things only known to the boatmen who walk on ships all year round?
Zhou Shaojin felt amazing and went to find Cheng Chi.
Cheng Chi was standing at the bow of the boat blowing the wind, and Qin Ziping, Huaishan and others were all serving beside him.
Seeing Zhou Shaojin coming, they saluted Zhou Shaojin reservedly and retreated to the side.
Zhou Shaojin asked Cheng Chi: "How do you look at the weather?" I've heard that only the old people in the village know when it's raining and when it's windy! ”
The corners of Cheng Chi's mouth twitched, and he said, "You don't know that there is a book called "The Great Yan Calendar"? ”
I don't know!
Zhou Shaojin secretly thought in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "But even if it's like this, not everyone can understand it, right?" Otherwise, wouldn't the Qin Heavenly Prison be overcrowded? ”
Cheng Chi glanced at Zhou Shaojin and said lightly: "I don't know about others, I just need to understand." ”
Zhou Shaojin pursed his lips and smiled, feeling that Uncle Chi was still proud in his bones.
However, if she is as smart as Uncle Chi, I am afraid she will be even more proud than him.
Thinking about it this way, I feel that Uncle Chi is actually quite humble.
She walked to the bow of the boat.
The sun dispelled the clouds, and the sky showed a blue blue, and the small island in the distance was lovely, lying quietly in the blue waves.
Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really like a pure land, which makes people's hearts clear." ”
Cheng Chi was noncommittal and stood quietly beside her.
The two looked at Putuo Mountain from afar and did not speak for a long time.
At noon, the sun rose.
The sky is bluer, the water is bluer, and the white clouds are floating in the sky, like a dream.
Their boat docked next to the pier on Putuo Mountain.
Pilgrims come and go to watch - many pilgrims travel between Zhoushan and Putuo every day, but there are very few who come by sand boat like them.
The boatman put down the pedal, and someone jumped up and said in a loud voice, "Is it the fourth master?" The small one is Wang Xiao, the shopkeeper of the Ningbo branch, who came to greet the four masters on the order of the big shopkeeper of the Jiangnan branch! ”
It was Qin Ziping who came forward to answer, and he smiled and invited Wang Xiao to get on the boat.
Wang Xiao pointed to the sedan chair gathered under the boat, and said with a smile: "I came yesterday, and the rough people have all been arranged, just waiting for the fourth master, the old lady, and the young lady to get on the sedan chair." ”
Qin Ziping praised him with a smile and took him to see Cheng Chi.
It was the first time Wang Xiao saw Cheng Chi, and he was so excited that he kowtowed and knelt down to make a big salute, and then stood next to him at a loss.
Fortunately, Cheng Chi was in a hurry to go ashore, and after asking Wang Xiao a few words, he was ready to get off the boat.
Qingfeng hurriedly went to tell Mrs. Guo.
Mrs. Guo and Zhou Shaojin were already ready, just waiting for the ship to dock. At this time, when he heard that he could get off the ship, Zhou Shaojin helped Mrs. Guo out of the cabin. Draperins were simply enclosed around it. Zhou Shaojin and others hurriedly got into the sedan chair. Qin Ziping and the small servant carried the offerings and followed behind the sedan chair, and the monk sent by Wang Xiao Fayu Temple led the way in front, and the group went to the Fayu Temple located on the left side of Baihuading of Putuo Mountain.
The presiding officer of Fayu Temple had already received the letter, and brought a few great monks and small novices who knew and served to wait in front of the mountain gate.
Seeing the sedan chair of the Cheng family, the host personally greeted him.
Cheng Chi stepped forward and saluted the host.
The host smiled and recited "Amitabha", and said: "Master Cheng Shi came from afar, sincerity is commendable, the old man has asked people to prepare a side room, please let the old lady and young lady rest for a while, and the old man will personally take the lady and young lady to the Guanyin Hall to pay homage." ”
The Kannon Hall is the main hall of Fayu Temple.
Cheng Chi smiled and humbly exchanged a few words with the host, went to the meditation room to serve tea, and their sedan chair was carried directly to a courtyard not far from the mountain gate.
Wang Xiao personally went into battle, and the courtyard had already been cleaned, because he was going to live in Putuo Mountain for two days, Zhou Shaojin and Mrs. Guo freshened up, leaving Fan Liu and Mama Lu to pack up the boxes and cages in the courtyard, surrounded by Biyu and others, accompanied by a kind and kind monk to the Guanyin Palace.
Like all famous temples, the construction of Fayu Temple is built on the mountain, and the number is gradually higher.
The first heavy dà hall is the palace of the heavenly king, behind the palace of the heavenly king is the jade Buddha hall, there is a bell and drum tower between the two halls, and then the palace of Guanyin, the palace of the imperial tablet, the floor of the scriptures, the hall of the abbot and so on. But compared with the Jiming Temple in Jinling, the separation between the main hall and the main hall here is wide, the momentum is magnificent, the ancient trees become forests, and it appears more solemn and majestic.
The monk Zhike introduced all the way: "This is all ancient camphor, which is often regarded as a sacred object by pilgrims, and the skin is peeled for medicine...... There is an ancient cypress on the platform of the Jade Buddha Palace, and the west side is worth a Arhat tree, the circumference is rough, it is rare, and the old lady and the lady can go to see it, it is said that touching it can also cure all kinds of diseases, prolong life...... The Imperial Tablet Hall is dedicated to the three Buddhas, and there is a door in the west side of the building to lead to the Xiangyun Road of the Buddha Ding Mountain. Further up, there is the abbot's temple, which is the highest place in the temple...... I heard that the old lady and the young lady came this afternoon, and although we did not close the temple gate, we asked the monks of the temple a few days earlier to persuade us to come back in a few days to offer incense. Early tomorrow morning, we will preside over the dojo for the Cheng family in the east side hall of the Imperial Tablet Hall......"
No wonder there are no pilgrims in this Fayu Temple, it turns out that Cheng Chi has already said hello.
It's just that I don't know how much sesame oil money was donated, but I actually attracted the host to greet him in person. Of course, the reputation of the Cheng family and the identity of Cheng Chi Jinshi may also be one of the reasons why Mrs. Guo's trip to Putuo Mountain has added a lot.
They went to the Guanyin Temple.
The moment he saw the Guanyin Palace, Zhou Shaojin thought that he had entered the palace.
Different from the main hall elsewhere, the Guanyin Hall of Fayu Temple is covered with golden glazed tiles, under the bright sun, shining, as if to the legendary Western Heaven Elysium, grand and lofty, the weather is extraordinary, the beach in the distance is open and wide, and the sound of the waves is in the ears, which makes people feel refreshed.
Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but chant "Amitabha" in his heart.
When she entered the Guanyin Hall and saw the Nine Dragons caisson carved on the top of the Guanyin Palace, she really felt the difference and majesty of Fayu Temple being named "Protecting the Country and Zhenhai Zen" by the imperial court.
She followed Mrs. Guo and Cheng Chi to offer incense to Guanyin Bodhisattva, presented a "Lengyan Sutra" and a volume of "Heart Sutra", donated two thousand taels of silver sesame oil money, and lit five everlasting lamps. One of them is for Cheng Jing, one is for Cheng Wei, one is for Cheng Xu, one is for Cheng Chi, and one is for Zhou Shaojin.
Zhou Shaojin was taken aback.
Even in Jinming Temple in Jinling, lighting an everlasting lamp costs at least 200 taels of silver a year. What's more, it is the Fayu Temple in Putuo Mountain.
She hurriedly pulled the sleeve of Mrs. Guo's coat.
Mrs. Guo smiled and turned back to her and said softly: "If you can come to Putuo Mountain, you are all people who are destined for Bodhisattvas." If you are troubled, make me some headscarfs, shoes and socks, and copy some scriptures. ”
Zhou Shaojin's eyes were slightly wet.
In her previous life, she felt scared when she thought of Mrs. Guo, but she didn't expect to be favored by her old man in this life. It is true that she can only repay the old lady by helping her do some needlework and copying some scriptures.
Several great monks looked at the white flowers and silver poured into the merit box, and they looked calm, but their bright eyes revealed their true feelings.
Zhou Shaojin suddenly laughed, and the gratitude that had just run rampant in his chest disappeared.
Uncle Chi is so bad!
He even used this real money to stimulate these monks.
I don't know if I have seen such a gold and silver and finally decided to return to my hometown to live a secular life, or decided not to concentrate on studying Buddhism but to be a monk who welcomes and sends it!
They came out of the Guanshi Hall and presided over the construction of Yì Chengchi to go to Foding Mountain to see, and said, "If you don't go to Foding Mountain, you have not been to Putuo Mountain."
Cheng Chi happily agreed and asked Mrs. Guo and Zhou Shaojin: "If you don't feel tired, why don't you go and have a look together." There is also a Huiji Temple in Foding Mountain, although it is not big, but it is built on the top of the mountain, you can have a panoramic view of Putuo Mountain, and it is also worth visiting. ”
Mrs. Guo was a little tired, but it was not easy to come to Putuo Mountain, she thought about it, and decided to go to Huiji Temple to have a look.
Zhou Shaojin naturally couldn't ask for it - she was young and in good health, although she was a human being for two lives, it was the first time she went to Putuo Mountain, and she wanted to walk around more than anyone else.
Cheng Chi instructed Jiying to help Mrs. Guo: "Be careful, if you are tired, we will rest more on the way, anyway, our next main thing is to play." ”
Zhou Shaojin agreed.
If Mrs. Guo collides somewhere because of her advanced age, it will not be good.
Mrs. Guo also knew, and said with a smile: "Don't look at my old bones, I'm afraid it's no worse than you." ”
Everyone laughed recognizantly, and the group went to Foding Mountain.
Steep mountain rocks on both sides, ancient trees that shade the sky and the sun, and the clarity of the blue sky and white clouds that I just saw in Fayu Temple are another scene.
Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but praise and said, "...... I wonder who first built a temple here? These great monks are really powerful, they can even dig a road in the mountain and build a temple on the top of the mountain. ”
The monk who accompanied them to Huiji Temple said with a smile: "These are all donated by pilgrims, without those lay believers, how can there be this Haitian Buddha country." Speaking of which, our temple has always wanted to build a hall of Mahavira to worship the Bodhisattvas. Cheng Shizhu is a Jinling family, and donated 5,000 taels of silver to our temple in one breath, I have been a guest in the temple for ten years, and it is the first time I have met a person like Cheng Shizhu who was born in a family of poetry, books and etiquette, and is so generous. If the great monk in our temple goes to Jinling to raise funds, I don't know if Master Cheng can help introduce the family of benevolence in Jinling City. ”
This is to help Cheng Chi be a broker!
Zhou Shaojin looked at Cheng Chi with wide eyes, but he was thinking in his heart, five thousand taels of silver, when they were in the Guanyin Palace, they donated two thousand taels, that is to say, Cheng Chi had donated three thousand taels of silver sesame oil money before!
This trip to Putuo is simply made of gold and silver!
