A breeze blows, and many old leaves gently drift down, showing a lot of Zen and charm. Under the leadership of Wang Xuance, everyone also dismounted and tied the sturdy Qinghai horses to a tethered horse stake outside the gate of the temple.

Standing in front of this thousand-year-old temple, Wang Xuance straightened his clothes and crown, signaled Zhou Zeng, and went to knock on the mountain gate of this Buddha Shadow Temple. Over the years, Zhou Zeng has been far away from the vulgarity and violence of the time, and as they walked towards the mountain gate, when they were about to knock on the mountain gate. I saw a young novice who casually opened the thick mountain gate, which caused Zhou Zeng to be stunned.

I saw this novice, after stepping out of this threshold with a smile on his face, he bowed his hand and said, "The rank is an envoy from the Tang Kingdom."

"We are the envoys from the Tang Kingdom, and we are visiting your temple today to see the relics of this Buddha shadow, and I also asked the little master to say goodbye" Wang Xuance also folded his hands, and after returning the salute, he said with a kind face.

"No need to be polite, please come in, my master and all the senior brothers are greeting the rank at the gate of this Daxiong Treasure Hall" The young novice immediately bowed and made a gesture of greeting.

"Thank you, little master," Wang Xuance led everyone into the mountain gate of the Debate Temple.

After entering this temple, they also deeply found that this temple is not only built of stone, but also the floor, the incense burner is carved from stone, and only on a small amount of soil, there are some tall pines and cypresses, although this temple is huge, but there are not many monks; In this way, the whole looks clean and spotless, and there is no sign of this dilapidation.

Following the guidance of the young novice, everyone came to the door of the hall, and saw a monk in his sixties, with a white beard and a robe that had been washed many times, although it was not very new, but it was also clean and decent. Seeing Wang Xuance and others approaching, he hurriedly brought three middle-aged monks to greet him, and gave a salute with his hands folded: "The old monk is the master of the temple, and he leads all the monks in our temple to see the long history of the Tang Dynasty."

"Thank you for the master's kindness, Wang Xuance led all the envoys of the Tang Dynasty Mission to return the salute to the master" Immediately, everyone, under the leadership of Wang Xuance, put their hands together respectfully and bowed deeply to thank Master Yuanrong.

After some greetings, everyone was introduced into this hall by Master Yuanrong. Entering this Daxiong Treasure Hall, Wang Xuance followed Zhou Chen and the others, only to find that this temple was obviously different from what he had seen before. In other temples, the statue of the Buddha in the main hall is either gilded or pure gold, or made of fine white jade.

The statue of the Buddha in the main hall here is carved from an ordinary stone, not only does it not have a tall and mighty statue, but it is a lot of chills compared with the statue of the Buddha in the main hall that I have seen before; And the statue is only half a foot high.

In this main hall, in addition to this stone statue of the Buddha, there are some small statues of one foot or half a foot, scattered on the stone base next to this main statue. Outside this Buddha statue is a small wooden fish, and a purple gold bowl with a diameter of half a foot, in addition to a dozen simple cushions made of dragon whiskers on the ground, and a stone incense burner on the table in front of the Buddha statue. Although it is simple, but when you look closely, all the Buddha statues are spotless.

Carefully pondering this statue, although it is not very large, and it is very incongruous with this tall hall, it is enough to show his thoughts and the good thoughts of looking down on all living beings. This is a kind thought that none of the temples that have been worshiped before have ever felt and have never encountered.

Wang Xuance immediately took a spacious state of mind and respectfully picked up the three incense sticks. According to the usual practice, after paying sincere respects, these three sticks of incense were gently inserted into the stone incense burner on top of these cases. Then he knelt upright on the mat of the dragon's beard grass and bowed three times. Immediately afterwards, it was naturally the sincere respect of Zhou Chen and others. Of course, in the process of each person's salute, his two apprentices would knock on the wooden fish and the purple gold bowl. to demonstrate the proper etiquette of Buddhism......

After everyone had finished saluting, the Harmony Master led them out of the hall. The first thing to look at is a mountain stream on the southwest side of this Daxiong Treasure Hall. Although this small stone ridge is not very high, this Buddhist temple occupies the commanding height of this small stone ridge. Coming to this viewing pavilion, accompanied by the crisp pines and cypresses and tall Bodhi trees, you can not only enjoy the tinkling of this spring, but also look down on the entire Visha Licheng.

"Envoys, please look, standing in our current position, the first thing to look at is the prosperous capital of my Wuchang country, Bisha Licheng," Master Yuanrong casually pointed into the distance......

As the mage looked in the direction of his finger, everyone couldn't help but burst out with this surprised expression. With the drop of more than 100 zhang, coupled with this fine weather, I can see that this Visha can be seen from the city, the complete city wall, the endless flow of vendors, and the crowd of people coming and going, showing endless prosperity and wealth.

After everyone had taken a look, the Harmony Master immediately led them to a viewing platform next to it, and next to this viewing platform, there were many large stones, and on these stones, they were all rubbed with abnormal light. I only heard Master Yuanrong say: "Ladies and gentlemen, please look, if you look down, you can not only see this beautiful mountain stream, but also hear the rumbling sound of the water.

As the mage pointed out, he saw that this deep stream was not only as steep as an axe, but also along a small stream, there was a silver-white waterfall flowing down, and on this cliff wall, some green plants scattered and scattered, as well as small animals that jumped out from time to time, gave this place a lot of agility......

"Master, your Buddha Shadow Temple is really a good place for self-cultivation, such a handsome environment, when we are waiting to travel to our five Indias, it is rare," Wang Xuance also said to Master Yuanrong with endless ease.

After a look at it from the crowd. But seeing this, Chen Maocai pointed to some stones with very bright tops next to him, and said to them: "These unusually bright stones, could it be that these masters are the places where you go to meditation and enlightenment?" ”……
