Duan Zetao and they then went to several other temples, the situation is similar to Nanshan Temple, excessive commercialization has completely changed the taste of this Buddhist holy land, and it has also completely destroyed Duan Zetao's mood to see the scenery, Gu Changjian said that he met Master Shiran near the Lingyin Temple in Wutai Mountain, Duan Zetao was too lazy to see other temples, and went straight to Lingyin Temple.

Lingyin Temple is not very famous among the many temples in Wutai Mountain, so the world mentions Lingyin Temple first of all think of Lingyin Temple in West Lake, Hangzhou, only extremely devout Buddhists know that there is also a Lingyin Temple in this Wutai Mountain, and it is extremely effective, Duan Zetao they asked a lot of tourists along the road and said that they don't know where Lingyin Temple is, and finally asked a very devout Buddhist who kowtowed up the mountain step by step, and only found Lingyin Temple in a mountain opposite the more famous Shuxiang Temple under his guidance.

When I came to Lingyin Temple, I really felt that it was different from other temples, there were no small vendors selling things at the door, and the pilgrims who came here were also extremely religious, no one made a loud noise, the courtyard walls and tiles of the temple were gray, and it looked like it had been for a while, which made people involuntarily have a sense of * and solemnity.

The monks here are all wearing gray monks' robes, very simple, many monks' clothes are also patched, and they don't take the initiative to talk to tourists, one by one, they face each other*, and they are very attentive to sitting there and chanting scriptures, which is completely different from those snobbish monks I saw before.

There is also a sign here, but unlike what I saw in Nanshan Temple before, the monks here will not persuade you to donate merit money, it is really completely up to you at will, if you are lucky enough to ask for a sign, you can take it to find a monk on the side, spend forty yuan, he will give you a yellow paper printed with a talisman, let you write your birthday on it, your home address, and paste it on the prayer wall in front of the Buddha statue.

Duan Zetao saw an interesting thing, there was a big-bellied poop who looked like a big tourist asked for a sign, and went to find the monk with a bitter face, and took out five hundred yuan and wanted to ask for a piece of yellow paper to paste on the prayer wall, who knew that the monk didn't look at it and threw it back to him, and said with his hands folded: "This donor, good fortune is not something that money can buy, if you want to eliminate disasters and bad luck, you can only do more good deeds, accumulate virtue and do good ......", the tourist only took the money back in a sneering manner, After thinking about it, he finally put the money into the merit box on the side and left dejectedly.

From such a trivial matter, Duan Zetao had respect for the monks of these Lingyin Temple, this is the real monk, and hurriedly stepped forward with his hands folded, and said respectfully to the monk who knew the guest: "This master, I want to ask you about someone, has Master Shiran of Xiani Temple been to your temple?!" Can you be in your temple at this time?! ……”。

The monk glanced at Duan Zetao, and hurriedly returned the salute: "This benefactor, Master Shiran did go to the temple three years ago to settle down, and discussed with the abbot of our temple, Master Lingjue, for three days, but soon he continued to travel the world, and he was not in the temple ......at this time."

"Oh!" , Duan Zetao learned that Master Shi Ran had left Lingyin Temple, and he was finally on the same side as this Taoist master, and he couldn't ask him for guidance anymore, so he sighed secretly, looking a little lost.

The monk looked at Duan Zetao carefully, and suddenly asked, "The donor's surname is Duan?!" ……”。

Duan Zetao was taken aback, he didn't reveal his identity, how did this guest monk know his surname Duan? He was puzzled: "Yes, I am surnamed Duan, I wonder how the master knows my surname?!" ……”。

The monk was in awe, and bowed deeply to Duan Zetao and said: "Hello Master Duan, when Master Shiran left, Zeng said that there would be a noble person who would come to the temple, and he also specially left a letter for you, which was placed at the abbot of the temple, Master Lingjue, and asked Master Duan to come with me to ......."

Duan Zetao was stunned, this Master of Relief is really a master in the world, and he actually predicted his arrival today in just three years, it is simply incredible! However, since Master Shi Ran can see through such an incredible thing as his own rebirth, it is not surprising that he can predict the future, thinking of this, he can't help but be full of expectations for the letter that Master Shi Ran left to himself, what kind of revelation will Master Shi Ran leave to himself?! Duan Zetao couldn't wait to see the letter that Master Shi Ran had left for him, and hurriedly followed the monk to the inner temple.

The inner temple is the place where the monks practice and stay, it is not open to tourists, it is more and more pure and solemn, the monk took Duan Zetao to the abbot's meditation room, Duan Zetao saw the abbot Lingjue master of the Lingyin Temple.

Master Lingjue looks kind eyebrows, white beard fluttering, at a glance he knows that he is a Taoist monk, he saw Duan Zetao quickly stood up from the futon, bowed deeply, sighed: "Master Shi Ran is really a monk, he is in the temple for a few days, so that the monks of the temple practice benefited a lot, the poor monk sighed to himself, that day he predicted that three years later, there will be a noble person to come to the temple, let Wutai Mountain reappear Buddha light, the poor monk is somewhat unbelievable, after all, this future is too illusory, predicting the future is too incredible, After today, the poor monk should hand over the position of abbot, completely get rid of mundane affairs, and worship the Buddha wholeheartedly, hoping that there will be a master of liberation in his lifetime, and he will have no regrets ......in this life.

Duan Zetao was also embarrassed, and hurriedly returned the salute to Master Lingjue, who took out an ordinary envelope from a cabinet in the meditation room, held it very respectfully and handed it to Duan Zetao, and said respectfully: "This is the letter that Master Shiran left to the nobles, the poor monk has never opened it, and the nobles please open the ...... by yourself."

Duan Zetao returned the salute to Master Lingjue, and couldn't wait to open the envelope, there was a square stack of yellow paper inside, unfolded it and looked, there were only a few words on it, it was a verse poem: "The fate of the past life and this life is not over, the ups and downs of life are impermanent, and the gains and losses of merit do not need to suffer, but the heart can ask the sky, the three ups and three downs are destined, the bitterness comes from the dragon, the peach blossom love is nowhere to avoid, and the writing cliff continues the front edge." ”。

Master Shi Ran wrote this poem in an obscure and unclear way, so that Duan Zetao was confused, if he realized something in his heart, he vaguely understood something, but he couldn't explain clearly, and there were more doubts in his heart, Master Shi Ran said that he would encounter three ups and downs, but his career went all the way smoothly, except that he was suddenly suspended from office when he was the mayor of Shannan City and reflected on some loss, and then he has been smooth sailing to become the executive vice governor, and has not experienced many ups and downs, can he say that he still has to go through any ups and downs? !
