There is a mountain between Wushou Town and Huacheng, and the mountain road is not easy to walk, and it takes a day to ride a horse. The carriage was slower, and the horse was whipped up for a day and a night. And on the way, in addition to a post station, there is only one Ci'an Temple in Shannan that can be settled.
It was getting late, and there was a knock on the door of Ci'an Temple.
Xiao Shami poked his head out, looked at a man and a woman who were in the dust outside the door, and folded his hands: "Amitabha, the two donors are here to spend the night?" ”
Lu gradually left his chin and said: "Exactly, passing through this place, I wonder if the little master can make it convenient?" ”
"It's convenient, the two donors, please come with the little monk."
Ci'an Temple, the legend is that it was built by the wandering monk Lichen Master, and the incense is very prosperous. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is an endless stream of pilgrims who come to make incense and make vows.
Today's presiding abbot is the second disciple of Master Chen, who is kind and charitable, relying on the accumulated incense money to build a separate courtyard in the mountain behind the temple, and a few guest houses are built in the courtyard, so as to make it convenient for passers-by who have nowhere to stay. There is no money for staying here, just chop a bundle of firewood, or copy a few scriptures to express gratitude.
The little novice walked in front to lead the way, and from time to time the afterglow fell on the two people behind him, and the hand carrying the lamp was very close, as if he wanted to pinch the lamp pole.
Walking to the gate of the Houshan Courtyard, Xiao Shami handed over the two to the mute monk of the Courtyard. He said "Amitabha" to the two of them and hurriedly left.
Lu Yanli stared at his slightly panicked back for two seconds, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his index finger tapped the hilt of the sword.
"Little monk has a problem?" Nanwu slowed down and asked casually.
Lu gradually left the corner of his lips slightly, his eyes moved away from the mute layman, and he shook his head and said, "No." ”
Nan Wu snorted coldly: It's no wonder if there is no!
Bypassing a lush bamboo forest, there is the guest house.
The mute layman gestured to the row of guest houses, and motioned to the two of them, with the male guest on the east and the female guest on the west.
Nan Wu swept in the direction he pointed, and raised his eyebrows slightly, this is really interesting!
Of the twelve guest houses, only two of the head were pitch black, and the rest were all lit by chance.
Nan Wu and Lu gradually glanced at each other and walked towards their respective rooms.
The guest house is very simple, a bamboo couch and two bamboo chairs, there is a Buddha statue hanging on the wall, there is a long case in front of the Buddha statue, there is a Xuan furnace on the case, the cigarette smoke is around, and you can know that it is Shen Tan when you smell it. Next to the desk is a bamboo shelf, on which are neatly placed pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and several Buddhist scriptures.
Nan Wu took out a copy of the Prajna Heart Sutra, washed the water in the pen and rubbed the ink, and took the pen to copy it.
Until it was nearly dawn, the lights in the room seemed to be blown by the wind, and shook violently twice, she stopped her pen, rubbed her eyebrows, turned around and said helplessly: "Why are you here again?" ”
The woman stood in the corner with her head down, her fingers twisting the hem of her clothes restlessly, and she hesitated: "I...... I just wanted to tell you that this temple ...... There is a strange thing, the great monk they were ......"
Before she could finish her sentence, she was frightened by the man who suddenly turned over from the back window.
Nan Wu frowned, looked at the uninvited guest and said, "The prince is not right to enter through the window in the middle of the night, right?!" ”
Lu gradually let out a light "shhh", put his slender fingers on his thin lips, signaled her to silence, and then quickly blew out the lights and turned over neatly on the beam.
Nan Wu stood in place in a daze, slowed down for a long time, and then groped his way up the bamboo couch in the dark. She opened her eyes and grinded her teeth as she looked at someone's presence on the beams of the room.
At this moment, there was a rustling sound outside......
