March 3 is one of the three festivals of the Tang Dynasty, and the government allocates funds to let hundreds of officials chase rewards for fun. In addition to cultivating, people mainly go on spring outings and carry out "outing" activities. Cultivation is to come to the waterside of Jiangzhu Pond and Marsh in the festival to wash the dirt with spring water, to remove diseases, drive away evil spirits and avoid monsters, and play in the water to play, play and have fun.

Walking in the countryside is to go to the suburbs together, looking for spring flowers, feasting and meeting friends, or talking heart-to-heart, or singing songs, and enjoying the bright spring of nature.

Lu Xiaoxian is naturally not exempt from vulgarity, and has already planned to go to the outskirts of the city.

After the rain and the sun was covered, Lu Xiaoxian and his party walked through the countryside and felt the breath of spring.

After the continuous moisturization of the spring rain, the effect has also quietly changed its appearance. The tender grass stems and blades of grass climbed all over the long mountain road, trying to seal the mountain road and make the mountains and fields only a world of grass and trees. What caught my eye on the side of the road was the cauliflower, the whole piece was golden, without a little mess, and I loved it very much. Children swim in the sea of flowers, with flowers as companions, entertainment, admiration.

These days, Yin Feng and Lang Yue have been holding back in the city, packing up their new home.

Since they followed Lu Xiaoxian, they don't know how many times they have moved, in their hearts, where Lu Xiaoxian is, where is home.

At this moment, they are swinging, flying kites, wearing willows, and laughing in the countryside, and their mood is so unrestrained that they don't want to turn around, and happiness overflows from their faces to their hearts.

The farmers took advantage of the festival to take out their own local products, such as local chickens, local ducks, chickens, ducks and goose eggs, green leafy vegetables and dry goods, which were placed on both sides of the side road, and they were sold out in a short time, and Lu Xiaoxian and others also had an extra harvest.

Everyone came to a farmhouse, there were no cauliflowers, only the green wheat field, which was really green. Walking beside the wheat field, everyone suddenly found that there were some wild celery on the ditch wall next to the field, which were very tender and fresh, so they stepped on the green field and picked it with their hands.

Cen Shaobai took the initiative to pay the farmer, and everyone ate a delicious stove meal, and the delicious taste was the most direct enjoyment.

After eating and drinking, Cen Shaobai and Xing Feng acted as guides and took them to visit Zhongmin Temple.

When Taizong returned to Youzhou after the defeat of Goryeo, Taizong felt the memory of the soldiers who died for the country, and had mixed feelings, "deeply sympathetic to the loyal people who died in the Rong incident", so he ordered the construction of the Minzhong Temple in the northeast of Youzhou City, which was to mourn. In the spring season, Zhongmin Temple has become a good place for the people in Youzhou City, and many good men and women come here to burn incense and pray for blessings.

Halfway through, I saw a deserted grave on the hillside of the roadside, which was incompatible with this high-spirited spring mood.

Lu Xiao stomped and looked at the lonely grave silently.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered Xue Huaiyi, and he didn't know if Xue Huaiyi had returned to the afterlife safely? The future is still not the way he left?

"Life is seventy years old, except for the young, and the old after the old. When there is not much time in between, there are frosts and troubles. The moon is singing before the flower, and it is urgent to pour down a handful of gold bottles. The world can't make enough money, and the officials in the court can't do it. The official big money turned worried, and his own head was white. Spring, summer, autumn and winter twist fingers, Lu sends the evening chicken to report the dawn. Please pay attention to the people in front of you, and bury the grass once a year. How many graves are high and low in the grass, and no one sweeps them for half of the year. ”

Lu Xiaoxian muttered this poem that I don't know who had written it, and his heart was full of emotion

If you are tempted, you will be tempted, and if you are killed, you will be killed. Now that you've traveled here, let's live a wonderful life! The more you step into the situation of being tempted in your life, the more you encounter being disillusioned, the more people feel happy? Isn't it a rare luck for the heart to be intoxicated and the soul to dissipate? If you don't erode and lose every inch for the sake of wonderful, wouldn't you live up to this crossing?

When you walk into Zhongmin Temple, you can feel the atmosphere here that is different from other Buddhist gates, peaceful and quiet.

At noon, many Buddhist disciples came into the hall to eat, and their faces were full of calm.

Zhongmin Temple has a total of seven into six courtyards, the layout is rigorous, wide and broad.

Walking into the mountain gate, there are bell towers and drum towers on the left and right sides. In front is the majestic palace of the heavenly king, in the middle of the hall enshrines the bronze statue of Maitreya Bodhisattva incarnation cloth bag monk, bare chest, happy appearance. Behind the Maitreya Buddha is the brave and majestic guardian god Wei Dao sitting statue, on both sides is the Ming Dynasty bronze cast four heavenly king statues, very majestic and solemn, the momentum is extraordinary.

In the middle of the Daxiong Treasure Hall is enshrined the "Three Sages of Huayan", and the Buddha Virujana in the center sits on the Sumeru seat, and Manjushri and Fuxian stand on both sides. The three statues are wonderful and solemn, beautifully carved, and the two sides of the main hall are eighteen arhat sitting statues.

Minzhong Terrace is also known as the Buddha Prayer Platform, the base of the platform is about three feet high, surrounded by brick railings, and the hall is built on the platform. There is a stone carved incense burner in the courtyard of Minzhongtai, the carving is exquisite, the knife technique is delicate, it is a rare treasure.

The hall behind the Minzhong Terrace is the Pure Industry Hall, there is a huge stone bowl in front of the hall, a double-layer stone seat, and the images of sea water patterns and mountain dragons, seahorses and eight treasures are carved around it, and the carving is extremely exquisite. There is a huge statue of Pilu Buddha enshrined in the pure industry hall, which is as high as the roof, with a total of three floors, and the whole Buddha statue is simple and exquisite.

The last hall is the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, the main hall is all paved with blue bricks, and the statue of Tuas is enshrined on the pavilion, which is made of dry lacquer for wooden tires.

Fayuan Temple is famous for flowers, the front and back yards of the temple are planted with cloves, the cloves here are called "fragrant snow sea", fragrant and rich, very prestigious. In the front yard, there is Tang Song standing, and Ning Bai is accompanied by the bell and drum tower. The ginkgo biloba in front of the scripture pavilion has a history of hundreds of years, the canopy is like a cover, the branches are luxuriant, and the shade covers half of the courtyard. The green bamboo, pine and cypress in the temple are shaded, the chrysanthemum sandwich road, the lilac is full of courtyards, the civil official fruit, the dragon claw locust, the begonia, the ancient acacia and so on are lush and green, the whole temple is embellished with extraordinarily elegant and quiet.

At this time, it is the season when the lilacs are in full bloom, and some scholars spontaneously hold lilac poetry meetings here.

The simple layout of the Buddhist hall only has a solemn and solemn feeling, and Lu Xiaoxian feels the seclusion and tranquility of the ancient temple, and there is less noise in the city. He saw a young man kneeling on a futon in front of the Buddha, holding a sutra and whispering in his mouth. There is also an old man who bowed in front of the Buddha, and his whole body fell to the ground, again and again, and the five bodies fell to the ground.

They are not exchanging with the Buddha and praying for the Buddha to fulfill their demands. For them, it's faith! 520

On the way to Zhongmin Temple, Lu Xiaoxian always felt that someone was peeping at them, not only Lu Xiaoxian, but even Zhang Meng also found out.

In the Zhongmin Temple, far away from Luoyang, it is not a pleasant thing that someone pays attention to them.

Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Zhang Meng, and Zhang Meng nodded.

Several people continued to walk forward, but Zhang Meng suddenly disappeared. When it comes to stalking, there are few people in this world who can compare with Zhang Mengxiang. At this point, Lu Xiaoxian is still very confident.

Leaving Zhongmin Temple, Yin Feng and Lang Yue were reluctant to give up.

Lu Xiaoxian smiled: "This place is not far from Youzhou City, when you want to come, you can come at any time!" ”

Looking at the sea of golden flowers and the dark green wheat field, I am still intoxicated and emotional.

It's not early, the sunset is slowly sinking in the west, and Lu Xiaoxian stands quietly with his hands in his hands. Although he brought back a flower, a grass, a vine, and a cloud, he brought back what he should have brought back in the spring. Wake up something that should wake up in the spring, and let something that should be in the spring be green, red, and pink in color......

Finally, a figure came from afar, and in a short time it came closer.

"What's the situation?" Lu Xiaoxian looked at Zhang Meng, who was panting.

Zhang Meng showed a narrow smile on his face: "I'm afraid you can't imagine that there is an acquaintance hidden in this temple!" ”

"Acquaintances?" Lu Xiaoxian raised his eyebrows, "Who is it?" ”

Zhang Meng gently spit out a person's name.

When Lu Xiaoxian heard this, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "It's really an old acquaintance!" ”

While speaking, Lu Xiaoxian turned around and looked in the direction of Zhongmin Temple, and said to himself: "It seems that I have to find a suitable time to visit him!" ”

……

The light of dawn lifts the light veil of night and spits out the glorious morning.

"Mo Dao pedestrians are early, and there are even more early pedestrians." At this time, Lu Xiaoxian and Lu Xiaoyi were walking on the country road in the fog.

The wheat fields are divided into pieces by the ridges, which are staggered and nestled on the soil, and occasionally the wind blows, and the wheat seedlings will set off layers of charming waves. In the quiet morning light, you can smell the scent of the hills, as well as the fragrance of various trees and flowers wafting in.

In Lu Xiaoxian's eyes, the morning in the countryside is like a cup of strong tea, which is incomparable to a city like Luoyang.

There are more and more peasant women doing laundry, old farmers who go out to work with oxen in their hands, and smoke from the chimneys of private houses is also rising.

In these days in Youzhou City, Lu Xiaoxian will always come to Lu's private school every once in a while.

Originally, the Lu family did not have a private school for the clan, and the study was mainly passed on by the family. Lu Ruoliang also counted, and after returning to Fanyang, he found a suitable place and opened this private school.

To enter the private school, you have to pass through a short road, and there are willows planted on the side of the road, like pairs of top horses, standing in rows on both sides, all of them are very large, and there should be fifty or sixty trees.

At the end of the road is a dilapidated courtyard with mud walls and straw roof, which is the Lu family's private school. The private school is located in the north room, and there are more than a dozen legless square tables, and behind each square table is a square seat about the size of a tabletop.

Of course, the private school is also the residence of the Master. The master's surname is Cheng, his name is Cheng Dezhang, and he is also a very famous scholar in Youzhou City.

……

Cheng Dezhang was born in a scholarly family in Huai'an with his father in Gusu and grew up, studied and practiced martial arts since childhood, and was very enlightened, not only reading well, but also practicing a good martial arts.

The Yang family is a famous local family, and it is close to the Cheng family, so the relationship is very good. The daughter of the Yang family and Cheng Dezhang are of the same age, and the two grew up together, childhood sweethearts, and the two have no guesses.

The Yang family once married the Pan family, and married Yang Xiangxu to the son of the Pan family. At the age when Cheng Dezhang and Yang Xiang first fell in love, the two adults began to restrict their contacts in view of the fact that there was no possibility of marriage. But the two can always find an opportunity to meet, and they know that the time together is getting less and less, so they cherish it.
