Zhixin took the fourth-generation disciples of Shaolin Temple, Jueyuan, Jueyu, and Juecheng to stand under the mountain gate, and today it was their turn to guard the mountain gate.

Zhixin listened to the bell from the drum tower, exhaled faintly, and his body couldn't help but relax a little. Today's sky is blue, just like yesterday, and at this moment my mood has become extraordinarily calm, with a faint warmth like the fading sun.

This may be what the master said, everywhere is practice, and only by understanding one's own Zen mind can one achieve the Great Dao.

It is estimated that it will not be long before Zhiwen will come over and take turns with him.

But at this moment, Zhixin saw a man with a plump spirit appearing in his field of vision. The man wore a dark black robe and walked towards the mountain gate.

On the right side of the man, there was a girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, and the girl's anticipation made people feel that there seemed to be a glow rising from the bottom of their hearts.

To the left of the man followed a boy who was also fresh and handsome, but his face was a little gloomy.

These three people are naturally Jiang Yun, Zhang Yi and Yang Qingxun who came to Shaolin Temple.

Zhang Yi walked up to Zhixin, took out his name and said, "Zhang Yi, the master of the Xuanwei Fairy of Yunmen Mountain, asks to see Master Huike, the abbot of your temple. ”

After Zhixin heard the other party's name, he cautiously took the prayer post with both hands, and pronounced the Buddha's horn and said: "Please also ask the donor to wait a while, and let the little monk go to the ceremony." ”

After saying that, Zhixin turned around and went back to the mountain gate.

After a while, Hui Ke solemnly wore a purple and gold robe and walked in front, and behind him were the first of the six courtyards of Youxiangyuan, Wuxiangyuan, Dinghui Yuan, Jiexing Yuan, Wude Yuan, and Silent Temple, as well as the elders of each courtyard.

It can be seen that Shaolin Temple attaches great importance to the arrival of Zhang Yi, Jiang Yun, and Yang Qingxun, so there are more people who greet them.

Zhang Yi led Jiang Yun and Yang Qingxun to come forward to salute, handed the letterhead written by Wang Chan to Hui Ke and said, "In the future, the little junior brother will be taken care of by Master Lao Huike." ”

Hui Ke clenched the rosary in his hand slightly, and then went to pick up the letterhead handed over by Zhang Yi, looked at Jiang Yun, and said to Zhang Yi with a warm smile on his face: "Fairy Lingshi Xuanwei has already met with my master Dharma Patriarch half a year ago and talked about this matter, you can rest assured that your little junior brother will be able to relieve the evil diseases in the body here." ”

"That's good... That's good..."Zhang Yi nodded reassuringly.

Zhang Yi bowed down to Hui Ke to express his gratitude, and turned sideways to Jiang Yun and said, "Little junior brother, you will have to live here alone for a period of time in the future, but you can't be like you have no rules on Yunmeng Mountain, and when the illness in your body is cured, Senior Brother will come to pick you up......"

Gradually, Zhang Yi felt that his voice was a little choked, and his eyes were a little moist, the little junior brother had been growing up in Yunmeng Mountain, and this time he left all his relatives and went to a strange environment alone, I don't know if he can adapt to it. But this is also what everyone must experience to grow.

Yang Qingxun hugged Jiang Yun in his arms with deep feelings. At this moment, she was suddenly very afraid that she would never see him again after separating from her junior brother, nine years ago, she saw her loved ones fall down one by one in front of her and never get up again, and the sting pain in people's hearts was unbearable. Therefore, she is actually very afraid of separation, because maybe one turn may be a lifetime.

When he was on the road before, Jiang Yun and Senior Brother and Senior Sister talked and laughed and didn't feel anything, but at the moment when Senior Sister hugged him, Jiang Yun felt that the whole head suddenly became empty, as if something had been withdrawn from his body, an indescribable discomfort, slowly hitting his whole body from the bottom of his heart.

The Buddha said: People have eight sufferings, birth suffering, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love, separation, and suffering, and the five aggregates are full of suffering.

But every separation in life is also for a better encounter.

The figures of Zhang Yi and Yang Qingxun disappeared from sight, and Hui Kecai took Jiang Yun and the head and elders of the Sixth Courtyard back.

After the mountain gate, it is the Yongdao. On both sides of the road is the stele forest under the shade of pine and cypress, because the stele stone is like a forest, so it is called the stele forest. There are more than 20 stone tablets of the past dynasties here, such as "Monument to the Return of Sectarians to the Mountain", "Monument to the Zen Master of Xixi" and so on. There is a long corridor on the east side of the road, and there are more than 100 famous monuments displayed in the corridor, and it is called the monument corridor.

The hammer spectrum hall is on the west side of the stele forest in the mountain gate, and there are clay sculptures and wood carvings in it.

When he walked to the Heavenly King Palace, the first seat of each courtyard returned to his own Zen courtyard, and Hui Ke continued to walk forward with Jiang Yun, passing through the Dharma Hall, and arrived at the Abbot's Courtyard in about half a cup of tea.

Hui Ke took Jiang Yun into the meditation room on the far left side of the abbot's courtyard and said to Jiang Yun: "I'll have someone bring you some food later, sleep well after eating, and I'll teach you the mantra of the Yijin Sutra and the cultivation method tomorrow." ”

Jiang Yun had just been separated from his senior brother and sister, and he felt a little widowed in his heart, and he couldn't tell what it was like, perhaps it was caused by leaving his relatives and a familiar living environment.

Hearing Hui Ke's words, Jiang Yun nodded a little sneeringly.

After Hui Ke went out, Jiang Yun sat on the futon alone.

The interior of the meditation room is very simple, with a large static character on the wall facing the door, a square table, a bed made of fragrant wood, and three futons. Although it is very simple, it gives people a very peaceful feeling, because the bed is made of fragrant wood, the room can always smell a vague fragrance, very good, very soothing.

Jiang Yun quickly felt more relaxed when he smelled the fragrance, and after a while, a disciple on duty in the abbot's courtyard brought the meal.

Jiang Yun hastily ate some and lay on the bed to rest. From the open window, you can see the stars in the sky, the stars here are not as bright as the stars on Yunmeng Mountain, Jiang Yun thinks that this is because Yunmeng Mountain is closer to the sky. Jiang Yun couldn't help but think of the night before leaving Yunmeng Mountain, Shizun first used his spiritual power to help him sort out the spirits of the Yang and Yin in the Lingtai, and then said to himself that he couldn't personally send himself to Shaolin Temple, there were very important things to do, and he handed over a piece of purple ancient jade to himself.

He took out the piece of purple jade from the Xuanwei ring of his left index finger, and carefully groped for the pattern and a ginger character engraved on it by the moonlight. Shizun told himself that this piece of jade had a great relationship with his life experience, and said that he would meet a demon with purple hair and eyes in Shaolin Temple, and that would be an opportunity for him.

Gradually, Jiang Yun could faintly hear the deep chanting sound and the beeping sound of the wooden fish, which seemed to come into his ears like nothing, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

Early in the morning, I was woken up by the sound of a bell from the drum tower. Jiang Yun felt that he slept very peacefully, and after waking up, he felt refreshed, this was a very deep sleep that had never been seen in Yunmeng Mountain before, and it was the quiet and peaceful atmosphere here, which made it easy for people to abandon all distractions and relax their bodies and minds.

Jiang Yun pushed open the door, and the soft sunlight sprinkled on his body warmly, and he stretched his waist and loosened his muscles. Seeing that the time is still early, I want to go out of the yard to go around, yesterday when I went up the mountain it was late, and separated from the senior brothers, senior sisters did not have the heart to enjoy this thousand-year-old temple.

I don't know if it's the same as depicted in the Taoist Sutra.

Jiang Yun walked out of the courtyard and saw Shaolin disciples wearing white and yellow monk's robes walking towards the six courtyards in twos and threes.

Jiang Yun also saw lay disciples with long hair mixed in.
