opened the door, and sure enough, Shan Xiongxin was standing at the door, Wang Mai looked left and right at the door to see if there was anyone, and quickly led Shan Xiongxin to the house. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"You're so daring!" As soon as Shan Xiongxin entered the house, he saw Dugu Xiude, "Just now I felt that there was someone behind the door, and as I expected, I caught this thief and went to see Wang Taiwei." As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and pounced on Dugu Xiude.

Dugu Xiude's face changed greatly when he heard this: "You dare! Not to be outdone, he picked up the short sword on the table and confronted Shan Xiongxin.

can't let these two people fight, Wang Mai hurriedly intervened in the middle to separate the two: "Second brother, don't worry, listen to my explanation first." ”

Shan Xiongxin's face was a little better when he heard this, and a pair of eyes stared at Dugu Xiude.

"Put your sword down!" Wang Mai pointed at Dugu Xiude, "Your three-legged cat's kung fu can also deal with me, Second Brother Shan was a master in the rivers and lakes in his early years, and he was born and died on the battlefield for many years, and he can poke you to death with his fingers, so don't get an axe in this class." ”

Dugu Xiude's face was a little ugly when he was counted down by Wang Mai, but he felt that what he said was reasonable. Although the Dugu family was born in Jiangmen, but after many years of wealth and glory, by his generation, the style of martial arts has declined a little, and even many brothers of the same clan have become weak scholars who are powerless. Shan Xiongxin is a world-famous flying general, known as invincible immediately, Dugu Xiude asked himself if he was not his opponent, so he could only put down his sword helplessly. Now life and death are pinned on this Wang Mai's words just now, thinking of this, I suddenly feel a little powerless in my heart.

"Second brother, sit down first." Wang Mai helped Shan Xiongxin to sit down, and motioned for Dugu Xiude to sit down with him.

"Brother Wheat, do you know how much trouble harboring this person will bring you?" Shan Xiongxin pouted his head and sat down helplessly.

"Of course I know, but I'm having a hard time riding a tiger now. Second brother, you know Wang Shichong's character, if I hand him over now, I will cause trouble for myself. Wang Mai poured a glass of water for Shan Xiongxin.

"It doesn't matter." Shan Xiongxin shook his head, "You give people to me, I won't say that I found them here." ”

"Second brother!" Wang Mai smiled bitterly, "I know that you are thinking about my brother and me, but you are a person who can't lie, even if you hand people over, you have to have an explanation, I'm afraid that you will be put into it in a few words, so it's better to just be ignorant." ”

Shan Xiongxin sighed when he heard this: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, you shouldn't keep this person." ”

"I don't want to. But sometimes it's not that I want to cause trouble, but what if something comes to my door? Wang Mai glanced at Dugu Xiude, who had an ugly face, "Second brother, for the sake of today's plan, brother, there is only one way after thinking about it." You're a general, find a proper place to take him in for a while, and then release him when the rumors of this matter have passed. Whether this person is dead or alive at that time has nothing to do with the two of us. ”

Shan Xiongxin lowered his head and thought for a while, obviously weighing the pros and cons of this matter.

"Wang Gongzi, I was rescued by you today, Dugu Xiude is grateful, this matter really makes the two of you embarrassed, I will leave here, whether I am dead or alive, it depends on the destiny of heaven, and I will never drag the two of you." After all, Dugu Xiude was still a hot-blooded age, seeing that the two of them were so embarrassed, and he refused to ask Shan Xiongxin for help, he got up to leave.

"Humph!" Shan Xiongxin sneered, "I'm afraid that if you can't get out of this alley, you will be caught by the officers and soldiers outside, and now you have a hard mouth, and when the time comes, it will fall into the hands of the people of the public gate. ”

"Okay, okay...... Wang Mai hurriedly pressed Dugu Xiude down again, "Why do you have a donkey temper, and listen to the second brother Shan." ”

Shan Xiongxin sighed: "That's it! Brother Wheat, you are a kind-hearted person, if you put others aside, it will be too late to clear yourself up. I'll take a risk and put him in for now. ”

"Thank you, second brother." Wang Mai smiled.

Dugu Xiude also breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed to Shan Xiongxin: "Thank you General Shan, he is ...... every day."

"Hey!" Shan Xiongxin waved his hand, "I'm helping my brother, you want to thank him, thank him." ”

"Thank you for the rescue of Wang Gongzi, my Dugu family will never forget today's kindness, he will ...... day by day"

"Okay, okay, okay......" Wang Mai sighed, "I saved you so as not to cause trouble for myself, and I'm not Lei Feng, you are in danger now, so I don't have to mention anything in return." ”

"Lei Feng?"

“……”

Finally sent away this scourge, Wang Mai appeased Liang San again, and asked him not to reveal tonight's events to the outside world.

In the seventh year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Liu Zhuang of the Han Ming Dynasty stayed in the South Palace at night, dreaming of a golden man with a height of six zhang and a light on his head from the west, flying around the palace. The next morning, Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty told the ministers about this dream, and the doctor Fu Yi Qi said, "There is a god in the West, called Buddha, and what you dream of is probably the Buddha." Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty was overjoyed when he heard this, and sent more than ten people, including ministers Cai Yin and Qin Jing, to the Western Regions to pray for Buddhist scriptures and Buddhism.

Cai, Qin and others bid farewell to the imperial capital and embarked on a journey of 10,000 miles to "learn from the West". In the country of the Great Moon Clan, he met the Indian monks Chemoteng and Zhu Falan, saw the Buddhist scriptures and the white felt statue of Shakyamuni Buddha, and implored the two monks to go east to China to preach the Dharma. Two Tianzhu monks were invited to work with the envoys of the Eastern Han Dynasty to carry Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues on white horses and return to Luoyang.

Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty was very happy to see the Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues, and was extremely polite to the two high monks and personally received them. In order to commemorate the White Horse Sutra, Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty decreed to build a monastery in the north of the three miles of the imperial road outside the Xiyong Gate in Luoyang, and named it "White Horse Temple".

Listening to Lao Zheng talk about the origin of the White Horse Temple in Luoyang, Wang Mai looked at this first ancient temple in China curiously.

The first feeling of the White Horse Temple is a little old, many of the bluestone roads are cracked, the walls of some walls are also incomplete, and the red paint on the pillars in front of several main halls is also a little mottled, but generally speaking, the buildings in the temple are still complete. In particular, the towering ancient trees in the temple that cannot be named are growing tall into the clouds one by one, although it is just spring now, and there is no greenery yet, but it is still not difficult to imagine their lush foliage.

Lao Zheng said that the White Horse Temple was seriously destroyed due to the war during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, but later all dynasties have repaired, and gradually restored the glory of some of the first ancient temples.

Today is Qingming, and there are really a lot of people who come to the White Horse Temple to make incense and make wishes. In this era, the monks were quite conscientious and did not force you to pay the entrance fee to enter the temple.

In his later life, Wang Mai went to a famous temple in his hometown, and the entrance ticket was fifty, and the finest incense was ninety-nine, and it was not discounted. The most speechless thing is that there is a wishing pool, and the monk who took it said that throwing a coin into it and hearing the sound will bring good fortune, which is a disguised collection of money. Wang Mai decisively said that he didn't bring coins, and he didn't want to take out a handful of coins for him to change out of nowhere. After a sightseeing trip, it cost hundreds without paying attention.

Since then, Wang Mai has stayed away from temples, Taoist temples and other attractions. I didn't want to take a vacation today, but I was pulled by Lao Zheng, Lao Kong, Lao Xu and others to come out. Lao Zheng is still a devout Buddhist, so he has to come to the White Horse Temple to worship the Buddha, saying that there are Qingming Buddhist activities today, which should not be missed.

Lao Zheng learned that Wang Mai had no religious beliefs, so he immediately came to his senses, and stopped chatting with those old men, and followed him behind his ass to tell him some things about Buddhism, with a look of wanting to temper you. Wang Mai shook his head, how could this person be the same as those Christian missionaries in later generations.

Several people paced into the "Big Buddha Hall". Lao Zheng pulled Wang Mai to introduce him to the Buddhas in the hall: "This is Manjushri and Puxian two Bodhisattvas, this is the two disciples of Ka Ye and Ananda, and this is Guanyin Bodhisattva ......"

"That's not right, Zheng Yushi." Wang Mai pointed to the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, "Why is Guanyin Bodhisattva a man?" "It's so unprofessional and I want to pull myself to believe in Buddhism, really, when I haven't seen Guanyin.

The great monk who didn't want to lead everyone smiled: "The Bodhisattva has ten thousand Dharma bodies, and both men and women are Guanyin. "This is really a drop of water, Guanyin can be male or female, and it can also change gender at any time.

Wang Mai pursed his lips and did not argue with him.

Xu Wenyuan, who had not spoken next to him, opened his mouth to explain at this time: "When Buddhism was introduced, the statues of Guanyin were all male bodies, and later as time passed, Guanyin with the body of a daughter gradually appeared. What you saw before should be the temple built during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the White Horse Temple has a long history, presumably this statue of Guanyin has been very old, so it still retains the style of the Han Dynasty. ”

"I see." It turned out that this Guanyin was transgendered, Wang Mai shook his head at the statue, and it was still more pleasing to the eyes of a woman.

Several people bypassed the Buddha statue, passed through the back door of the Great Buddha Hall, and then walked forward to the Daxiong Treasure Hall. The Daxiong Hall is the tallest building in the temple, and the overhanging roof rises high, giving people a sense of grandeur. His Royal Highness has eight large red pillars hugging each other, and there is a large vertical incense burner cast in bronze in front of the palace, and an endless stream of pilgrims are waiting for incense. The fireworks in the furnace were very vigorous, and the strong smell of incense filled the square in front of the hall.

"I heard that Master Huicheng is now listed in the White Horse Temple, can there be such a thing?" Lao Zheng finally stopped bothering Wang Mai, turned his head and asked the monk another question.

"Master Huicheng is now visiting the Zen machine in the temple, but he generally doesn't see outsiders." The great monk replied with his hands folded.

"Master Lao went to report it, and said that his old friend Zheng Ying came to disturb him, can it be convenient to see it."

"Then I'm sorry to wait a minute, I'll go and report it."

"Who is this Master of Wisdom?" Wang Mai asked curiously. What Lao Zheng said is also from the high-ranking officials of the three grades, looking at the meaning of this monk, this Huicheng is very likely not to sell to face.

"Master Huicheng is a contemporary monk, when the Emperor Daye was not yet on the throne, he invited him to the Huiri Dojo in Jiangdu to preach the Dharma. Later, he was also invited to the Luoyang Sifang Pavilion as a big speaker, and the followers were like clouds, and I got to know him from that time. "The old monk is so powerful, Emperor Yang of Sui values him so much, no wonder he has such a big face, he is simply a cardinal-like figure.

After a while, the great monk who received him came back, Lao Zheng had a lot of face, and Hui Cheng agreed to meet everyone.

A few red-and-green officials walked on the road, and the people next to them naturally dodged the way. A white and tender young boy didn't know how to dodge, and looked at the few people who walked towards him with his fingers in his mouth.
