Fayuan Temple, full of people, Lu Zheng only found that there is a huge square here, and a high platform has been set up on the square, and the high platform is enclosed with a fence to block the wind and cold.

These high platforms are built by merchants from all walks of life, which are equivalent to temporary restaurants and restaurants, of course, because in the Fayuan Temple, the meals here are vegetarian, and the wine is only vegetarian wine, Rao is so, these high platforms are also overcrowded in the wine shops, very lively.

Lu Ning was familiar with all this, he led Lu Zheng and Ying'er to find a relatively secluded high platform to sit in, and as soon as he sat down, he heard a loud noise in the square.

Before Lu Ning's buttocks could sit firmly, he stood up and said, "Wow, third brother, look over there, it's the palanquin of the Qin Wangfu Qian County Lord, and the Qian County Lord has come to offer incense!" ”

Lu Zheng looked at the direction of the square in amazement, and sure enough, he saw many people clustering around a sedan chair in the direction of the square, this is a crimson official sedan chair, with a very eye-catching spire, and the four corners of the sedan chair are raised high, which looks very beautiful and luxurious.

Lu Zheng didn't see the royal logo from the appearance of the sedan chair, and he couldn't help asking, "Big brother, how do you know that it is the sedan chair of Lord Qian?" ”

Lu Ning smiled lightly and said, "Isn't that easy?" Do you see the man riding a tall horse behind the crimson sedan chair? That person's name is Dai Shizhang, does Dai Xiang's son know?

But whenever there is a temple fair, wherever the county lord goes, Dai Shizhang will inevitably appear there, so that no one else can see the demeanor of the county lord......"

"Wait, big brother! It seems to be a little messy, didn't you say that Dai Shizhang was very interested in Li Qianqian? How did you get involved with Lord Qian? Lu Zheng said.

Lu Ning smiled and said, "Third brother, a locust like Dai Shizhang, can he still be infatuated with one person?" Dai Shizhang likes the people who like the county lord of Qian, and everyone in the capital knows that the county lord of Qian is very unkind to him, but the more this is the case, the more he has to do everything possible to get close to the lord of Qian, do you say this person has quirks?

Recently, there have been rumors that His Royal Highness King Qin intends to marry the Lord of Qian County to the Dai family, tsk, tsk, as soon as this news comes out, can Dai Gongzi be more enthusiastic? ”

Long Qian, the county lord of the Qin Palace, is more delicate than flowers, and has a hot temperament, she is a famous girl in the capital, and she is the goddess in the hearts of thousands of talents!

When the lord of Qian County came, it would naturally cause a huge commotion, but Dai Shizhang, the flower messenger, had an abominable face, which made the talented people very jealous, but Rao was so, and the square was also full of people.

"Third brother, this county lord we don't have to think about it in this life, you and my brother are realistic or think about the top girls in the eight alleys, if you can win their favor, hehe, it's also a good story!" Lu Ning grinned.

The shadow on the side only rolled his eyes at him, and Lu Zheng said with a smile: "Big brother, you can talk about prostitution in such a high-sounding manner, you are the only one I have seen in my life." ”

"Hehe......" Lu Ning smiled embarrassedly, he straightened his robe in a chic manner, and said, "People are not romantic teenagers!" You and my brother are too poor in their family background, and they can only compete with a little talent, which is a pity! ”

Lu Zheng said: "According to the eldest brother, in the land of the capital, whose children are the most enviable? ”

Lu Ning said: "If you want to say that it is the most enviable, it is naturally the children of top wealthy families such as the Su family and the Duan family, and the Dai family naturally cannot be underestimated."

Let's just say that this Dai Shizhang, if you say that you can learn, I am afraid that it is not as good as me Lu Ning. But look at people, can you be by the side of Lord Qian, can you and my brother do it?

There is also the girl Li Qianqian, who is not a prince or a member of the royal family or the children of the Su and Duan families, where can we be a scholar from a small family?

Among the celebrities in the capital, there are also young ladies from the Su family and the Duan family, tsk, that has to be the right person, how can you be favored by a beautiful woman with a background like you and my brother? ”

Lu Zheng frowned slightly, and said, "Big brother, I heard that my sister-in-law is not Miss Su?" ”

"Uh......" Lu Ning had a strange look on his face, he coughed dryly twice, and said, "That...... Don't mention the sister-in-law, don't mention the sister-in-law, uh......"

"Hey!" Seeing Lu Ning's appearance, the shadow who was originally angry couldn't help laughing.

At this time, there was a climax in the square, the sedan chair of a certain lady of the Su family came, and the sedan chair of a certain lady of the Duan family also came, and then, Li Qianqian, the first oiran in the capital, arrived.

Li Qianqian's sedan chair is unusual for the style of the lady, she is a big red sedan chair, which fell outside the square, and then she got out of the car and walked across the square.

Looking at this woman from a distance, she is dressed in a white coat, her face is like a silver basin, her body is long, and she is swaying. There are more than a dozen maids and wives around her, and there is also a big man in a strong suit to protect her, on the square, causing countless commotions, and at this time, the bell in the temple rang, and the gate of Fayuan Temple opened.

"It's open! Let's go, third brother, let's go to Shangxiang too! Lu Ning said loudly.

The gate of Fayuan Temple opened, and the pilgrims poured in like a tide, and it was obvious that not all of these pilgrims were devout believers, like many talented people who went to burn incense, presumably just to be able to see the demeanor of their favorite woman!

Lu Ning jumped off the high platform and beckoned to Lu Zheng: "Third brother, hurry, let's go in and burn incense!" The flow of people was at its peak, and Lu Zheng didn't want to join in such a lively situation, so he said:

"Big brother, you go in first, my stomach is a little uncomfortable, follow up later, you go!"

Lu Ning nodded and immediately made an appointment with Lu Zheng to meet the time and place, and then followed the flow of people into the Fayuan Temple, the scale of the Fayuan Temple is very large, covering an area of thousands of acres, there are more than 1,000 monks, and there are a total of five large halls for pilgrims to worship on incense.

Lu Zheng did not take refuge in the Shi family, and had little interest in the incense, so he didn't want to join in the excitement, the shadow originally had a crazy energy, but today she was not very suitable for the various enthusiasm of the northern genius for her, and she did not dare to step into the temple to incense, so the master and servant walked around the corridor outside the temple and walked towards the east side of the temple.

Fayuan Temple is isolated from the outside world with a high red wall, around the red wall is a wide corridor paved with bluestone, today everyone rushes to the incense into the temple, like Lu Zheng is purely a curiosity to play people are very rare. Lu Zheng walked only half a mile around the outer wall of Fayuan Temple, and then everything was far away and completely clean.

Fayuan Temple is located in the prosperous place of the capital, the scenery is extremely beautiful, and it can overlook the prosperity of the capital. Lu Zheng and Ying'er walked slowly on the bluestone paved road, all they saw was prosperity, but the place they were in was quiet, this kind of experience Lu Zheng had never had before.

In the whirling world, all living beings are presented in front of Lu Zheng, Lu Zheng seems to be standing on a high place watching all this, he is a bystander in this world.

There is a mountain behind Fayuan Temple, and there happens to be a big Buddha on the mountain, Lu Zheng can see the appearance of the big Buddha from a distance, and he suddenly had a thought in his heart:

"If the Buddha really has spirituality, the big Buddha on this mountain should be the same as me, and he is also standing on a high place overlooking the vast number of sapient beings in the world, with his Buddha nature, what do you see?"

As soon as this thought moved in Lu Zheng's heart, he wanted to go over and climb the mountain, walked around the outside of the wall, walked a long way, and gradually walked to the foot of the mountain, and at this time there was a small door leading straight to the Fayuan Temple, and there was no one in this small door, so Lu Zheng easily walked into the high wall.

After walking into the high wall, you can go up the stone steps under the mountain, there is no trace of people in this area, Lu Zheng walked a while, and when he turned around, he could see the incense of the five halls of Fayuan Temple in front of him.

I saw at least five green smoke spiraling up from the place where incense was burned at the front door of the major halls, and the green smoke rose, covering the crowd and a lot of prosperity.

The higher Lu Zheng walked, he faintly heard bursts of Sanskrit singing from the mountain, this Sanskrit singing was low and heavy, listening to it in his ears made Lu Zheng feel transcendent, it seemed that his spirit had been refined and sublimated, he immediately reined in his mind, his steps slowed down, and he climbed up step by step.

Wait until the mountain, Lu Zheng found that there is a large open space here, the big Buddha on the mountain is in front of him, look at this Buddha statue, it is dozens of zhang high, it is carved with a piece of rough stone on the mountain, look at this carving, exquisite atmosphere, the Buddha statue looks full of spirituality, lifelike.

Under this big Buddha, there are two rows of wooden rowed houses built on the mountain, the rowhouses are made of wood, simple and simple, the roof is covered with thatch, and the Sanskrit chant that Lu Zheng heard in his ears came out of this row of houses.

It is the middle of winter now, and there are occasional laymen in and out of the row house, these people are men and women, all wearing monk's robes, they occasionally glance at Lu Zheng's master and servant curiously, but they quickly converge their eyes and are busy with the things at hand, it seems that everyone is focused on their own world.

When Lu Zheng saw this scene, he knew in his heart that the row house in the back mountain should be a place for the temple to live. In the mundane world, there are many people who believe in Buddhism, and they have taken refuge in Buddhism, but they have not been ordained and ordained, and this is the so-called layman.

These laymen usually have their own identities in the red dust, and when they are in their spare time, they enter the monastery to practice and study Buddhism, and some even live in the monastery for several months, and now these terraced houses are used for their residences.

There are men and women, there are two rows of row rooms, men on the left and women on the right, Lu Zheng knows a little about the Shi family in the capital, and knows that Fayuan Temple is a big temple that is enshrined by the royal edict, and the people who can be laymen here are only afraid that they are not ordinary people, the Buddha said that all beings are equal, in fact, even in the temple dedicated to the gods and Buddhas, people are divided into three, six, nine and so on!

Lu Zheng thought to himself, if he wants to live as a layman in Fayuan Temple as a layman, I'm afraid he will have to spend a lot of effort!

Lu Zheng turned around such a thought in his heart, and he had no interest in these laymen, he circled around the Buddha, and when he turned to the back, he found that there were stone steps behind, and he followed the stone steps to go up, is it the main road to the top of the mountain?

As soon as he thought about it, he walked up the steps, but the shadow did not follow, and she was still looking up at the big Buddha above her head, wondering how this huge Buddha statue was carved!
