Chapter 437: Déjà vu
"Daochang Sun, Xuanzang is really good at finding a place, the scenery here is really good!" Li Xiu and Sun Simiao sat in the carriage, admiring the scenery outside through the window. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
I saw the ups and downs of the mountain peaks outside the window, although it is not steep, but it is quite beautiful, and the temperature in the mountains is higher than the outside world for some reason, the outside has just warmed up, but the trees and grass here have grown buds, it looks like spring is everywhere, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
"The horse said well, although the scenery here is not as beautiful as Nanshan, but it is also quite good, but unfortunately the road here is too rugged, and if you go further, our carriage will not pass, only on foot, which also makes it rare for people to live here except for some Taoist temples and Buddhist temples." Sun Simiao said with a smile at this time.
Sun Simiao wanted to visit Xuanzang, and by the way, he also invited Li Xiu, it just so happened that Li Xiu may not have seen Xuanzang for a long time, and there was nothing to do at home, so he came with Sun Simiao, but he didn't expect the scenery in this mountain forest to be quite good.
After walking forward for a while, the carriage came to a mountain road, and then it was really impossible to walk the carriage, so Li Xiu and Sun Simiao had to get off the carriage, and then walked towards the mountain on foot, although the road was very difficult to walk, but the scenery in the mountains was enough to make people ignore the road under their feet.
"Huh?" However, as he was moving forward, Li Xiu suddenly frowned slightly, and then looked around at the surrounding scenery, because he suddenly felt that the surrounding scenery was a little familiar, but he didn't remember when he had been here?
"What's wrong with the colt?" Sun Simiao also noticed Li Xiu's strange appearance, and couldn't help but ask at the moment.
"Oh, nothing!" Li Xiu didn't know how to explain it, so he smiled at Sun Simiao at the moment, and then carefully looked at the surrounding scenery again, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt, and he always felt as if he had been here before?
The temple where Xuanzang temporarily lives is not big, but it is built on the top of the mountain, and the road along the way is not difficult to walk, but from time to time you can see some Buddhist temples or Taoist temples, but it is limited by the terrain, whether it is a Buddhist temple or a Taoist temple, the area is not large, it is estimated that this should be a practice temple, that is, the kind of temple that is not subject to incense, just for the convenience of monks.
After walking a little further, suddenly a peach forest appeared in front of me, and now it was the time when the peach blossoms were blooming, and I saw clumps of pink peach blossoms piled up like clouds, which looked like the legendary peach blossom source. And in this peach blossom, one or two eaves protrude from the peach blossoms, apparently behind the peach tree a Buddhist temple or Taoist temple.
"I remembered!" When Li Xiu saw this peach blossom forest, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and finally he got up Why did he feel that the scenery here was very familiar, because Li Xiu, no, to be exact, Li Xiu had been here before.
"Daochang Sun, is there a small nunnery behind this peach forest, called Qingjing Nunnery?" Li Xiu suddenly opened his mouth and asked Sun Simiao at this time.
"Hey, how do you know that there are only three or four bhikshunis practicing in this Pure Meditation Nunnery, and they rarely come into contact with outsiders, so have you been here before?" Sun Simiao couldn't help but ask in surprise when he heard Li Xiu's words, this Qingjing Nunnery is not a famous ancient temple, I heard that it was built in the former Sui Dynasty, and it is only a few decades away from now, if you haven't been here, I'm afraid you won't know that there is a small nunnery here.
"I've been here!" Li Xiu suddenly sighed at this time, and then smiled reluctantly, he thought that the memory of the last Li Xiu would not have any impact on him, but he didn't expect that when he revisited his hometown, the dusty memories came up again, making his mood quite uncalm, but it was not suitable to show it in front of Sun Simiao.
Sun Simiao also saw that Li Xiu's mood was quite uneasy, but the other party was reluctant to say, and he was not easy to ask. At this time, Li Xiu once again took a deep look at the Qingjing Nunnery hidden in the peach blossom forest, and then turned around and continued to go up the mountain with Sun Simiao.
Although the mountain road is difficult, this hill is not high, and there are only a few hundred steps left from the top of the mountain, so Li Xiu and Sun Simiao soon came to the top of the mountain, only to see that there is a larger temple here, but this big is only relatively speaking, and it is also a very small temple in other places.
At that moment, Sun Simiao knocked on the door, and soon a small novice opened the door, and saw that Sun Simiao also immediately bowed, and then invited them to enter the temple, and soon, Xuanzang and Bopo, who received the news, also came to the front hall immediately, and were very surprised when they saw Li Xiu, and then stepped forward to salute.
"Xuanzang doesn't have to be polite, Bopo, didn't you say that you want to guard the solemn temple and worship the Buddha's tooth relic, why did you come here?" Li Xiu said with a smile, although Bopo is a monk and has a bit of a problem with his character, he is actually a high monk, not as vicious as many other monks, but a very good person, otherwise he would not become friends with Xuanzang.
"Don't make fun of the poor monks, the monks in the solemn temple are very arrogant, the poor monks have no chance to see the Buddha's tooth relics there, but are discriminated against everywhere, it is better to take the initiative to move out!" Bo Po smiled bitterly at this time, when he knew that Datang also had a Buddha's tooth, he was determined to worship in person, which was also the reason why Li Xiu arranged him to live in Zhuangyan Temple, but unfortunately he later found out that it was impossible to see the Buddha's tooth in his identity, and Li Xiu couldn't help him, so he died of this heart and simply moved out, so it was freer.
"Hehe, the monks in the solemn temple are indeed a little arrogant, and it is indeed not easy to see the Buddha's tooth, even if His Majesty wants to see the Buddha's tooth, you need to discuss with the monks of the Zhuangyan Temple in advance, and then you have to burn incense and bathe, and even fast for three days, anyway, it is very troublesome." Li Xiu couldn't help but laugh when he heard Bo Po's words, he was actually very interested in the Buddha's tooth, but after learning about the series of troublesome preparations before seeing the Buddha's tooth, he simply gave up this thought.
"The Buddha's tooth relic is left by the Buddha, which is related to the prosperity of Buddhism, and naturally it will not be easily seen, and the little monk has come to Chang'an for a long time, and he has no chance to see it, so the master does not have to be angry." At this time, Xuanzang also said with a smile, and after speaking, he invited Li Xiu into the meditation room inside, and then took out the wild tea on the mountain and invited Li Xiu to taste it.
Li Xiu and Xuanzang chatted for a while, Sun Simiao began to ask Bopo for advice on the problems encountered when practicing yoga, and Xuanzang also joined in, but Li Xiu couldn't interject, after all, he almost didn't know anything about yoga, and finally simply went out of the meditation room, intending to enjoy the scenery around the temple, but after turning around the mountain, Li Xiu suddenly thought of the peach blossom forest that he had passed by before.
