Chapter 1 Emei Adventure
Mount Emei, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, is located in the southwest of the SC Basin, located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, standing between the Dadu River and the Tsing Yi River, is a famous Buddhist mountain and tourist attraction, according to legend, it was the dojo of Fuxian Bodhisattva, and is known as "Emei World Show". The highest peak, Ten Thousand Buddha Peak, is 3,099 meters above sea level, and the Golden Dome (3,077 meters), where the Huazang Temple is located, a sacred place for Buddhism, has become the highest point of Emei Mountain tourism.
On this day, the golden top of Emei is still bustling, tourists are weaving, at this time, it is more than nine o'clock in the morning, coinciding with the clear sky on that day, it is the best time to watch one of the four wonders of Emei, the sea of clouds. I saw the white clouds rising from thousands of mountains and ravines, and in an instant, the vast sea of clouds, the snow-white velvet carpet was spread flat on the horizon, smooth and thick, boundless, as if resting and sleeping. Sometimes, there are clouds on the horizon and clouds in the sky, and people stand between two layers of clouds, and they feel like they are fluttering.
There was a man and a woman in the crowd who walked out of the crowd hand in hand at this time, walking slowly to no one's place, the two were about thirty years old, the male was about one meter tall and more than eighty meters tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a strong physique; The female is also about 1.7 meters, tall and beautiful.
I only heard her say to the man: "Xiao Rong, there are a lot of people here, can you find a place with fewer people to rest for a while?" Xiao Rong nodded: "Okay, we didn't join the group, we don't need to join in the excitement, there are trees and rocks over there and there are no people, let's go over there and rest for a while." ”
The two came to the edge of a forest, found a large bluestone, wiped it slightly, and sat down.
"Ling'er, I'm sorry, it's useless to blame me, I can't give you a comfortable life, and I want you to follow me around" Xiao Rong looked at the woman and said.
"Xiao Rong, we are husband and wife, don't say this kind of thing, am I the kind of person who can only share weal and sorrow, I will follow you wherever you go. Don't think about the past, let's work together, and it will get better and better in the future. The woman said softly to Xiao Rong.
It turned out that these two were husband and wife, the male was called Xiao Rong, and the female was called Yu Ling'er, both of whom were from the north. Xiao Rong's family originally had a small family business, which was not bad in the local area, and both husband and wife worked in their own company, but the financial crisis caused the company to suffer a lot of impact, and finally went bankrupt after a few years.
The husband and wife had no choice but to go away to look for opportunities to do some small business in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai with some friends and previous business connections. This time I came to Chengdu to help a friend of ZJ run a business, and after the matter is done, there is still time to go to Mount Emei to worship the Buddha and scatter my heart, and I will be ready to go back tomorrow.
As the two were talking, they suddenly felt rain floating in the sky, and when they looked up, they saw that it was indeed raining, and after a while, a dense rain and fog were formed, and the sky and the earth were foggy.
"It was sunny just now, and it's raining now, it's really weird." Xiao Rong smiled bitterly.
"Don't talk about it, let's go, we don't have umbrellas with us, and it's time to become a soup chicken in a while." Yu Ling'er said as she wanted to stand up, but she didn't expect to sit for too long, her feet were a little numb, and the big bluestone was a little slippery from the rain, so she stepped on the air and fell.
Xiao Rong didn't pay attention to the side, was startled, and hurriedly helped her up: "Why are you so careless, did you fall and hurt yourself?" ”
"It's okay, it's just that my hand is a little skinned." Yu Ling'er raised her hand and looked at it and said.
"I'll take a look, and I still say it's okay, it's all bleeding, does it hurt?"
At this time, neither of them noticed that a drop of blood dripped on the bluestone, but it was not washed away by the rain, but seeped in, and after a while, a pattern appeared on the bluestone, which was very blurry at first, and could not see what it was, slowly becoming clearer and clearer, and it was all displayed in more than ten seconds, and it was actually a Taiji yin and yang diagram.
The Taiji diagram rotated slowly, emitting a faint light, and after the light, an image appeared faintly in each of the four directions, hazy and not very clear, but the colors of the four images were different, the top was black, the bottom was red, the left was white, and the right was green. Among them, only the red one is particularly bright, and it is constantly flashing red light one after another, as if it is about to break free.
Xiao Rong next to him was helping Yu Ling'er deal with the wound, but Yu Ling'er seemed to have some senses, and always felt that something was wrong, so he turned his head and looked at it, and his mouth opened wide in surprise at this look.
"Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong, this ...... What is it? ”
"What's wrong?" Xiao Rong also raised his head, "Ah! What is it? At first glance, Xiao Rong was also stunned.
When the two of them were surprised, the red suddenly shone brightly, and Yu Ling'er was wrapped in it at once, "Ling'er ......" Xiao Rong was startled, and instinctively held Ling'er's hand tightly, and the next moment the two disappeared in place, and the pattern on the bluestone disappeared, and in the misty drizzle, it was as if nothing had happened, and everything was silent.
Xiao Rong and Yu Ling'er only felt that their eyes were dark, but when they opened their eyes again, they found that they had arrived in a strange space, surrounded by a fire-like red, even the soles of their feet and the sky. The temperature in the space was terrifying, and the two of them only felt that they were sweating non-stop.
At the foot of the platform is a small platform, in front of which there is a passage about three meters wide that cannot be seen at a glance, and the rest of the place is all fiery red, like floating flames.
"W-What kind of place is this? Xiao Rong, what's going on? Yu Ling'er asked in surprise.
Xiao Rong first looked around carefully and frowned, "I don't know what to do, this is too bizarre and incredible." Xiao Rong walked a few steps in place, raised his head and looked at Yu Ling'er and said, "The matter has come to this point, we can only take one step at a time, take my hand, let's walk over and have a look together, okay?" ”
"Okay, I'll follow you, and we'll advance and retreat together." Yu Ling'er nodded.
Xiao Rong was in front and Yu Ling'er was behind, and the two walked forward hand in hand along the passage.
An hour later, the temperature was getting higher and higher, and the two were already sweating profusely and faltering. Suddenly, a deep valley appeared in front of him, and the fiery red magma in the valley tumbled up and down, and flames kept rising from the valley, and these flames were all white, dazzling, and extremely hot.
The two had to stop, because there was no road ahead.
"Xiao Rong, there is no way, what should I do?" Xiao Rong smiled bitterly, "I don't know the way either, but I believe that there is no endless road, and you are also tired, so take a rest." ”
"Hey, how could it be two people, it's strange." A very pleasant voice suddenly appeared in the ears of the two. Immediately after that, a large flame rose from the deep valley and floated in the air.
The two of them looked at it curiously, only to see a flash of red light, and a big red bird appeared in the flames, flying in the air with a fiery red body, with long tail feathers floating behind them, and a ball of flames surrounded them, and the end was beautiful and abnormal, and the momentum was extraordinary.
"Ah...... My eyes. Xiao Rong suddenly covered his eyes and cried out in pain.
"Rong, what's wrong with you?" Yu Ling'er nervously held Xiao Rong.
"My eyes, my eyes hurt so much." Xiao Rong covered his eyes, trembling in pain.
"Don't be nervous, he just got his eyes burned by my natal fire." The firebird in the air suddenly spoke.
"Then what to do, please save him." Yu Ling'er was about to cry when she saw it in a hurry.
"It's okay, since he can enter my Divine Mansion, he must not be a person without a background, and a little divine fire light can't hurt him, let him rest first." After the firebird finished speaking, with a wave of his left wing, a red mist enveloped Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong immediately stopped screaming in pain, and slowly lay down.
The firebird turned to Ling'er and said, "You are the one I am waiting for, come with me." ”
"Where to go, where is he? What happened to him? Yu Ling'er asked.
"He's fine, let him rest here."
"No, I won't leave him alone, and I will never be separated from him." Yu Ling'er shook her head and said firmly.
"Oh, it's really affectionate, forget it, take him with you, I'm a little curious about him too." After speaking, the red mist wrapped around Xiao Rong and floated onto the back of the firebird, and in front of Yu Ling'er, a staircase appeared to descend to the deep valley, leading straight into the flames of the deep valley.
"Follow me." After the firebird finished speaking, he took Xiao Rong and flew to the deep valley first.
Yu Ling'er paused, gritted her teeth, stepped on the stairs and followed the firebird.
This time it was very fast, and after walking for about ten minutes, suddenly there was a fire all around, Yu Ling'er couldn't help but close her eyes, and when she opened them, Yu Ling'er froze, and the scene in front of her made her unable to believe her eyes.
In front of him is a majestic and magnificent palace, built by something, the whole body is red and smooth as jade, exuding a dazzling luster.
What's even more amazing is that there are countless fiery red trees growing around the palace, full of blood-colored flowers, extremely charming, and there are many fiery red birds perched and circling on the trees, which are exactly the same as the firebirds just seen, but they are countless times smaller, and the largest is more than ten times smaller than it.
In front of the palace were hundreds of fiery steps, and Yu Ling'er was under the steps at this time, and when she raised her head, she saw two huge hall doors slowly opening.
"Come on." Firebird's melodious voice sounded, "These 360 steps represent the Great Zhou Tian, you must walk up step by step by yourself, and you can't miss a single step, otherwise even if you are the one who responds to the order, you will not be able to enter the main hall." ”
"What about Xiao Rong, how is he, where is he?" Yu Ling'er shouted.
"He's fine, you'll see him when you enter the hall."
After hearing this, Yu Ling'er raised her feet and walked towards the shang. After only walking a few steps, Yu Ling'er found that every time she stepped on a step, there would be a trace of heat entering the body through the center of the foot, and after circulating in the body for a week, she stayed in the heart. The 360 steps are actually instantaneous, and there is no feeling of tiredness at all.
