Volume 2 Half Landscape and Half Fate 099 Baoqing Temple
Wen Lingjiao was speechless for a while, and listened to Lin Shuhan continue: "As far as Lin knows, the leaders of the Tianzun Sect have all been inherited by the Wen family, and they have been here for three or four hundred years, what is the difference between this and the Central Plains Dynasty?" If it is according to the doctrine of your religion, should not the position of the head of the religion be occupied by the able? Could it be that the descendants of the Wen family for generations are all the top talents in the sect? ”
Wen Lingjiao is such a smart person, and her eloquence is also unusual, she has never lost in debating scriptures with others before, and even if she occasionally loses, she can always refute it with strong words.
However, Lin Shuhan's analysis today is not only reasonable, but also strategic, so that Wen Lingjiao can't think of a sentence and a half to refute.
So the three of them looked at each other without saying a word, only hearing the sea breeze howling, bringing a trace of fishy smell.
The three of them were silent for a long time, and Qiu Yizhi finally sighed: "The teachings of the Tianzun Sect have been read a few times, but I only feel that they are a little absurd, but I have never said it so thoroughly as Mr. said. "It's kind of breaking the dead silence.
Uncle Lin pursed his lips, unfolded the folding fan again, and shook it a few times: "This is just an occasional gain from Lin, Lord Ruoqiu and Miss Wen can feel some feelings when they hear it, and it is not a waste of Lin's words." ”
After saying that, Lin Shuhan turned his head to look at Wen Lingjiao, and his eyes emitted a terrifying cold brilliance.
Wen Lingjiao has been exposed to the teachings of the Tianzun Sect since she was a child, although she knows in her heart that what Lin Shuhan said is almost reasonable, but how easy is it for her to give up the faith she has believed in for nearly twenty years so easily?
So Wen Lingjiao's face sank, and she said: "Mr. Lin is really a person who connects China and the world, and the ancient and the present, the little woman can't argue with you today, how about asking for advice in the future?" ”
Of course, Lin Shuhan had already guessed that Wen Lingjiao had been persuaded by herself, and he also knew that the Holy Maiden of the Tianzun Sect in front of her was arrogant, and it was impossible for her to admit her mistake in person, so he smiled generously and said, "Okay!" If Lin has any experience, he will also ask the young lady for advice. ”
Qiu Yizhi heard that the two of them were no longer as tense as before, and he was happy, so he said: "Okay, the terrain of our Baoqing Temple has also been seen, and the teachings of the Tianzun Sect have also been discussed. ”
After that, Qiu Yizhi didn't wait for everyone to agree, so he beckoned this and went in the direction of Mingzhou City.
In the next three days, although Qiu Yizhi and several people were afraid of revealing their identities and no longer dared to go to the vicinity of Baoqing Temple to step on the spot, they carefully recalled and analyzed the terrain there countless times, prepared a variety of possible situations, and did various countermeasures.
So finally came the day of the Double Ninth Festival on September 15.
According to the time agreed from Fei Lian half a month ago, Qiu Yizhi was not in a hurry to go out that day, but only waited for the sun to set and the moon to rise on the willow tree, and then together with Wen Lingjiao and Lin Shuhan, they each rode mules and horses to Baoqing Temple - and the eight personal soldiers brought by Yu Chi Jiming, He'er and Qiu Yizhi had already set off, and they were ready to respond at the established position.
Lu Qiuyizhi walked through the road to Baoqing Temple once, so it didn't take any time to reach the fork of the Yongjiang River into the sea - from a distance, it seemed that there were people around Baoqing Temple who were moving, far from the lifeless appearance that he had seen before.
Seeing this, Qiu Yi quietly glanced at Lin Shuhan and Wen Lingjiao, and then walked forward again.
After walking for a short time, suddenly several tall and strong people jumped out from behind the rocks on the side, stopped in front of the three of Qiu Yizhi, and shouted, "Who are you waiting for? With the sea ahead, there's nothing to go to, so don't turn back quickly! ”
If it were a normal time, Qiu Yizhi would definitely have to make a few jokes with these people who stood in the way, but now that he was here, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, so he immediately owed a debt: "Presumably these are also senior brothers in the Holy Sect, right?" The younger brother recently heard that the altar master was meeting here, and he was intending to go to participate in the grand event. I hope a few senior brothers can make it convenient! ”
The big men glanced at each other, and suddenly opened their mouths and said: "Listen with one heart and one heart, the great samadhi of light, and the incomparably meritorious person, you should be born——"
This is an incision in the Tianzun Sect, Qiu Yizhi has read it in the scriptures without knowing it, and he has a vague impression and can't remember it for a while.
Just as he was scratching his ears and cheeks, he heard Wen Lingjiao reply: "When he talks about the wonderful law, everything is sufficient, like thirst for nectar, and he is sick to the path of liberation." ”
Qiu Yizhi was overjoyed when she heard this: Wen Lingjiao is a dignified saint of the Tianzun Sect, a character who speaks the same, how can a few code words not come out?
The big man over there nodded, and said: "The two-legged venerable of the omniscient is unequaled in the world of heaven and man, and the ten forces of the world are very desirable, and the supreme and most victorious Futian——"
Wen Lingjiao smiled slightly when she heard this, and then she didn't think about it, so she continued: "Its donor was born in heaven, and in the future, he will be liberated from nirvana, and he will be a great master of compassion." ”
(The above are all taken from the "Maitreya Dacheng Sutra", and the White Lotus Sect is all Maitreya beliefs, so this sutra is cited.) )
Only then did the two big men nod, changed their expressions to a kinder expression, and asked Qiu Yidao: "It turns out that it is really my Holy Sect disciple!" But I don't know who this is......"
Qiu Yizhi saw that they had relaxed their vigilance, so he said, "This is the wife of the younger brother who has not passed the door." I'm not afraid of the jokes of the two senior brothers, the younger brother has been spoiled by his father since he was a child, and he went to a few private schools but didn't recognize a few words. But my fiancée is very smart, and she can't forget the holy scriptures. ”
While listening to Qiu Yizhi's introduction, those big men looked at Wen Lingjiao's face - before Wen Lingjiao went out today, she specially asked He'er to put on a flattering makeup for herself, although she lacked the beautiful and refined temperament of the past, but it also had a unique flavor - so as soon as these big men's eyes touched Wen Lingjiao, they couldn't move away.
Seeing that they looked like perverts, Qiu Yizhi couldn't help coughing lightly, and deliberately raised his voice and said, "The disciple was introduced by Senior Brother Fei Lianfei, can you let us go in and pay our respects to the altar master?" As he spoke, he counted the number of several big men, took out a few pieces of loose silver taels from his sleeve, and distributed them to a few people.
The men took the silver and immediately smiled, and one of them said, "It turned out that it was introduced by Senior Brother Fei!" I also heard that Senior Brother Fei found a brother with a deep faith in Shanyin County, who is said to be surnamed Xu, and it turned out to be you. ”
Qiu Yizhi nodded: "It's the junior brother Xu Jia, since Senior Brother Fei has already greeted a few of them, then hurry up and let the junior brother in, the little brother's heart is burning when he sees the altar master, and he can't wait for half a moment!" ”
The man replied, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Even if you need to take a boat to enter the temple, you can't go over these horses under the crotch of the junior brother. ”
Qiu Yizhi sat on the horse, and sure enough, he saw a few small wooden boats parked by the river in the distance, so he quickly turned over and dismounted, and said, "That's nature." After that, Wen Lingjiao and Lin Shuhan also dismounted and dismounted their donkeys, and beckoned to go to the direction of the ferry.
He was about to step forward, but was stopped by a big man and said, "This Senior Brother Xu, your wife is familiar with the scriptures, and it is natural for her to enter the Fa Festival, but this gentleman is not easy to enter, right?" ”
Qiu Yizhi had expected such a statement, so he glanced at Uncle Lin and said with a smile: "This is my master, I am tired of reading sage books, and I want to see the world......
In the Tianzun Sect, the most annoying thing is a scholar who can distinguish between right and wrong, and the man heard that Lin Shuhan was a master, so he had to refuse when he opened his mouth.
However, before the word "no" in the man's mouth could be spoken, Qiu Yizhi had already said: "It seems that Mr. Lin has no relationship with the Holy Sect, and there is no way to do it, so Mr. Lao will wait here, so as to help us keep an eye on these horses." ”
After that, Qiu Yizhi didn't look back, so he walked slowly to the boat with Wen Lingjiao.
The boatman was an old man, and Qiu Yizhi saw that his dark face was full of wrinkles, and a greasy layer of sweat oozed from his bare skin, which glowed white in the moonlight.
Qiu Yizhi chatted with him for a few words, and then he realized that it was a nearby boatman, and he was temporarily invited, and he was not a believer of the Tianzun Sect. So Qiu Yizhi took out another piece of broken silver, rewarded the old boatman, and got off the ferry in his thousand thanks, and came to the gate of Baoqing Temple.
From the outside of the door, this Baoqing Temple still looks dilapidated—the bricks on the ground in the square in front of the temple are all crumbled; The tiles on the roof are incomplete and scattered and mottled; Even the window paper didn't have time to be pasted - but there were many people walking in and out, looking very busy.
Qiu Yizhi knew that he had come to go undercover for a private visit, and he didn't dare to find someone to talk casually so as not to reveal the flaws, so he only looked into the temple through the tattered window - sure enough, he saw that in the main hall of Baoqing Temple, which was not spacious, there was a small porcelain jar, and a big fire was lit in the jar.
When Qiu Yizhi was concentrating on observing the movement in the temple, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind and greeted, "Senior Brother Xu, you are here!" ”
Qiu Yizhi was taken aback, but he thought that this person called himself "Senior Brother Xu", which must be the one named Fei Lian in front of the "Dust Palace" at that time.
So Qiu Yizhi turned around slowly, and saw that it was Fei Lian standing behind him, and the corners of his mouth immediately raised a smile: "It turned out that Senior Brother Fei was here, and it scared me!" ”
Fei Lian had gained a lot of benefits from Qiu Yizhi's side before, and when he saw him, he seemed to see a golden mountain, and said: "I still think that Senior Brother Xu is a real person, why hasn't it arrived yet, and I still want to cross the river to welcome Senior Brother over!" I didn't expect that the junior brother had already come. The tone was very enthusiastic.
Qiu Yizhi also smiled: "This is also thanks to Senior Brother Fei's name!" The younger brother just came over, but he was stopped by the two senior brothers in the sect at that time, and they refused to let me come over anyway. But as soon as Senior Brother Fei's name was reported, those senior brothers immediately politely sent me in. ”
Qiu Yizhi's sycophant shot was just right, which made Fei Lian very happy to hear it, and suddenly lowered his voice: "Don't hide it from Senior Brother Xu, Senior Brother I am also a good person to talk to in front of the altar master, if the senior brother wants to meet the altar master alone and listen to the altar master's teachings, it is not completely impossible......"
Qiu Yizhi heard the sound of gold and silver hitting in Fei Lian's words, so he deliberately bought a pass: "I didn't expect Senior Brother Fei to have such hands and eyes, and to be able to see the altar owner with his own eyes, it is really a little brother's wish." I understand what Senior Brother means, don't you just want some filial piety......"
Fei Lian heard Qiu Yizhi's words be explicit, but also straightforward, and said, "What does my junior brother think of me?" Since Senior Brother Xu has quite a lot of property, he should contribute more money to fund the spread of my Holy Religion, which is also the proper meaning of the question! ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Qiu Yizhi said with a smile, "It's a pity that I came out this time, and the gold and silver were all placed with my wife, and I will go and discuss with her." ”
Seeing Fei Lian nodded, he turned to Wen Lingjiao's ear and said, "Miss Wen, you also heard what you said just now. Do you want to go and meet the altar owner alone? ”
