Ninth What happened during the night

Compared with Fufeng County, there is no terrain limit, and the scale is much larger, coupled with the appearance of the Buddha's relics, tens of thousands of people from all directions come to pay respects, making the originally quiet town seem noisy and abnormal, the hotels and inns in the south of the city have been filled with pious pilgrims, and even the believers who sleep in clothes can be seen on both sides of the road leading to Qiyang.

In the crowded crowd of pilgrims, two Taoist children dressed in Taoist robes with delicate faces were particularly eye-catching.

The two of them were Di Feng and Chou'er who rushed to Fufeng from Taibai, and Di Feng laughed at Chou'er a few words along the way, which made Chou'er angry or angry, but he was happy to do it and didn't feel the hardships of the road at all; On the other hand, the ugly child pouted at this time, and the unhappiness was already hanging on his face, because of the rain a few days ago, the road to Fufeng was muddy and difficult to walk on, and the short ugly man's robe was already full of mud spots, and his boots were like a mud bump, stepping on the ground and making a crackling sound, which made people uncomfortable to listen to.

"I can't walk anymore, Famen Temple is willing to go to you by yourself. I want to change my clothes, I want to take a shower, I want to eat a hot meal......" The ugly child looked at the inn in front of him and began to play tricks.

originally thought that following Di Feng would be able to see the customs of a different place, which Cheng thought, along the way, the light and the yellow mud all over the ground competed, who still had the heart to look at the scenery along the way, when I thought: This bad guy didn't know how to care about himself along the way, but laughed at his own embarrassment, and the ugly man's heart burst into flames, "I'm a woman!" Shouldn't you be afraid of getting dirty? Shouldn't you walk with your hips? Stretching out an orchid finger can still be laughed at by you for a long time, I'm so angry."

For the ugly child to rely on not leaving, Di Feng has his own way, this trick is unpleasant, "I asked, this inn is full, and the shopkeeper said that there is an inn not far ahead." When we get there, we will rest immediately, what do you want to eat, please open your mouth, take a bath and change clothes, this is all trivial, as long as you insist on it, just once, and it will be there immediately. ”

"But, you've said this several times, why haven't you seen an inn where you can stay?"

"It's just ahead, not far away"

……

An hour later, the two had already left the south gate of Fufeng.

"How far is it?"

"Just ahead, a few steps away"

……

Another hour has passed, and I have arrived at Yunlongzhuang, which is five miles away from Famen Temple.

"How far is it?"

"It's here, hold on a little longer"

"Phew! You should be an aunt...... No...... Is Xiao Daoye an idiot? Don't go, resolutely don't go" The ugly man finally wondered, this little thief was too hateful, he just wanted to trick himself into going to Famen Temple in one go.

Seeing that his tricks failed, and the hour was evening again, Di Feng had no choice but to take the ugly child into Yunlong Village and knock on the door of a villager.

There is only one widowed old woman in this family, the old woman looked at Di Feng and Chou'er carefully, and then heard the intention of Di Feng and the two, so that the two of them lived in their own firewood house, "In the past few days, almost every family in Zhuangzi has lived in pilgrims, only I, a lonely old woman, dare not stay overnight. But the old woman has to nag, you are from the Xuanmen, you should be careful when you go to the Fahua Temple, I heard that the old Taoist and the great monk are making trouble!"

Said to be a firewood house, in fact, it is a thatched shed, fortunately it is summer, otherwise how can people live in this leaky shed, the ugly child is angry, and he ignores Di Feng and plunges into the haystack to pretend to sleep, Di Feng accosted a few words, saw the ugliness and did not react, so he had to go out and spend a few pennies to change some food at the old woman. After coming back, he greeted him a few times, but Chou'er didn't say anything, knowing that Chou'er's anger had not disappeared, and there was no choice but to put the food next to Chou'er, and wait for him to eat it himself.

Maybe he was really tired, Di Feng ate something, fell asleep on the haystack; Sleeping until midnight, Di Feng woke up with a sound of rushing water, and through the gap in the firewood room, Di Feng saw: a person was next to the clay jar next to the firewood room, scooping water for a shower, a pair of ivory-like carcasses were exposed to the bright moonlight, long black hair, slender legs, slightly bulging chest, flat lower abdomen ......, water flowed down from the body, and the whole person was covered with a halo in the moonlight.

Ugly? Di Feng rubbed his eyes in disbelief, convinced that he was not mistaken, and wanted to look again, but saw that the ugly child had finished taking a shower, and was sneakily walking towards the firewood room, Di Feng quickly closed his eyes, but his heart was beating wildly, "It's always been strange, my orientation is normal, but why do I want to get close to the ugly child who is "very girly", it turns out that she is a girl, but it's a pity, if this little Lori doesn't have that birthmark on her face, she must be a disaster for the country and the people when she grows up, but it's okay, this natural cover on her face, It made her walk outside with a lot less unnecessary trouble. The girl's family, like a flower, looks like jade, but there is an extra disgusting birthmark, which must hurt her heart a lot, you have to be careful when you speak in the future, don't hurt her unintentionally. ”

Hearing the sound of the firewood room door, Di Feng secretly opened his eyes a slit, only to see the ugly child wearing a wet Taoist robe, tiptoeing in; When he saw that the ugly child's little face was frozen white, and the hem of the robe was still dripping, Di Feng couldn't pretend to be asleep.

Di Feng pretended to be woken up, "What are you doing, why are you soaking wet?" As he spoke, he took off his robe and threw it to Chou'er, "Wear mine, look at you, there is water everywhere, hurry up and dry your clothes outside", after speaking, Di Feng walked out of the door with his shoulders on his shoulders.

Chou'er actually hasn't slept all the time, the mud on her body and shoes made her feel very uncomfortable, and she waited until Di Feng fell asleep, she secretly went out, washed her clothes and took a shower by the way, and when she came back, she was startled by Di Feng who suddenly woke up, she subconsciously took the robe and asked, "Why are you going?"

"Pee!"

With a snort, Chou'er was amused by Di Feng's answer, "vulgar" She muttered, took Di Feng's robe under her nose and smelled it, it smelled very good, there was a smell of sunshine, it was a bit big on the body, but it was very warm and steady, this feeling made Chou'er fall asleep quickly.

After staying outside for a while, feeling that the time was ugly enough to change his clothes, Di Feng was just about to go back, when he saw a figure outside the low courtyard wall, flashing by.

"It's so late, what can the sneaky thing do?" Di Feng followed curiously.

………………

The predecessor of this Famen Temple is only an ancient temple in Qiyang, Fufeng County, Qizhou, the name of the Buddha's relics has long been spread, and it was only built and renamed "Famen Temple" when Gaozu was in power, and then it was destroyed by fire.

Monk Zhicong sat opposite the envoy Wang Changxin at this time, and his thoughts turned, "It turned out that it was to raise money for the repair of Famen Temple, so he entered the palace to face the saint; It's just that this silver is begging, but it also asks for the queen's will: send 3,000 pieces of silk, a copy of the "Great Nirvana Sutra", order the construction of the palace and the statue of Ashoka, and the rest repair the old tower. Still in the tower, can be developed, out of the Buddha relics, to flow blessing wisdom".

In the face of Wang Changxin, the monk Zhicong, who is famous for his wisdom, has a hard time, "It is easy to say who this Buddha statue is made of, but Wang Changxin has a message from the Empress Wu that the relics should be sent to the Taiji Palace, and Gaozong has moved to Penglai Palace due to illness." Tai Chi Palace? This is clearly to give the relics to the Empress Wu; If you don't pay it, the Empress Wu is building Shamen, and it is unreasonable to say it; It's handed over, what should I do on Gaozong's side?; Half on one side? But there are seven Buddha relics, who has more and who has less? More than 20 people, including Wang Changxin, the current king of the relics, must say one less!"

Monk Zhicong, who was in a dilemma, suddenly opened his slightly closed eyes and shouted in a low voice: "Where is the master visiting this temple at night?" The voice was muffled, but it reverberated over the entire Famen Temple.

Wang Changxin is also worried, "Empress Wu's intention is to auspicious relics to correct the hearing, but Gaozong is still the emperor after all, this court dispute is a wrong step is a catastrophe, fortunately there is more than one relic in the world, it is really not possible to send both sides, although both sides may not be good on both sides, but it is also more affordable than pleasing the side and losing his life", thinking this, he was just about to speak, but was startled by the cold low voice of the monk Zhicong, his reaction was extremely fast, and at the same time he hugged the treasure letter of the relics in his arms.

But it was too late, I saw a blue light breaking through the window, Wang Changxin felt that his hand was light, and the treasure letter that put the relics was gone.

"Thief, leave!" As soon as he saw the relics being robbed, the monk Zhicong was dumbfounded, shouted, and the people rose from the ground like a big peng and chased them out in an instant, and when the guards rushed into the courtyard with a horizontal knife, how could there be a figure to be found.
