The Kushan that Bantu said in his mouth is obviously different from Xiangju, the King of Kushan does not pay attention to the Buddha, just because there are often wars in the east, he did not choose to rebuild in situ, in the city of Fulousha, but there is the largest world-honored Shakyamuni stupa, which also enshrines a phalanx bone of the Buddha.

A few days later, Zhuge Liang's army came to Maocheng, also called Xiangmao City, Detention Najieluo, etc. The officials and troops of Maocheng had long since left, and there were not many inhabitants in the city, and it was a desolate small city similar to the situation of Fanyin City and Sarnath.

Zhuge Liang ordered the army to stop outside the city, and the group walked into the city, and the people were not alarmed by the sudden arrival of the Han people.

Bantu's identity is sensitive, and he can't show up lightly for the time being, and the guide of the itinerary is still Xiangju. There aren't many sights to see in the city, but the most prominent one is a tall white tower and an equally white temple next to it.

The names of these two landscapes are also very similar, respectively called the Great Nirvana Pagoda and the Great Nirvana Temple, Xiangju introduced, here was originally enshrined the eight relics of the Buddha, with the migration of the times, and then disappeared.

Of course, the treasures of Buddhism will not be lost lightly, but they are scattered all over the world and worshipped. As for how the relics are formed, there is no scientific explanation so far, and they are usually only burned after the death of the Buddhist monks.

Therefore, whenever there is a relic on the market, it will cause a great sensation and pursuit of good men and women, and the heart of cultivation will be more firm, and it will not hesitate to spend all their wealth to see it.

In the Great Nirvana Temple, there are many worry-free trees, the jungle is quiet, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance. There is a pool in the courtyard, in which purple lotus flowers bloom, some as large as a basin, and the smallest one is the width of a palm, which is very rare.

This lotus is really cute, layered, with golden stamens in the middle, Sun Shangxiang was greedy, and bent over to pick one, but was stopped by Wukong waving his hand, Sun Shangxiang didn't insist, and stopped with a smile.

It is the time of sunset, the Great Nirvana Temple is reflected in the pool by the setting sun, and the water on the shore seems to be connected as one, which is more and more solemn and sacred. The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled the courtyard, gilding the white qiē with gold edges, and the whole world was filled with peace and tranquility.

"This place is so beautiful!" Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but sigh, Wukong in his arms closed his eyes slightly, folded his hands, and hung his head humbly.

"The most beautiful thing here is not the scenery, but the rare quiet." Wang Baoyu also sighed, but unfortunately there was no camera at this time, so he could only take a few more looks, imprint the beautiful scenery in his mind, and reminisce in his spare time.

The huge monastery was empty, and there was not a single monk to be seen. Walking into the main hall, you will be greeted by a huge statue of Nirvana, lying on the side of the right hand of the pillow, with slightly closed eyes and a smile at the corner of the mouth, facing the west, symbolizing that the Buddha went to the Western Bliss after Nirvana.

As soon as Qiē was solemn and sacred, Xiangju and Wukong immediately knelt and kowtowed to the Buddha, and the people who traveled with them also bowed one after another.

On the boulder below the Buddha statue, there is a line of Sanskrit inscription, Wang Baoyu and Zhuge Liang and others do not know, let alone understand the meaning, but the last four Chinese characters are clearly in sight, it is Zhuge Butterfly.

The most peculiar thing is that the name does not seem to have just been engraved, and it is integrated with the previous text, as if it has experienced a long period of vicissitudes.

When Xiangju saw these three words, he was immediately stunned on the spot, and couldn't help but say: "These are all the names of the Buddha's own disciples, why is there one more Han person?" Is it also a compound surname Zhuge ? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and saw Zhuge Liang's cold eyes, Xiangju immediately closed his mouth, but there were also monstrous waves in his heart, Zhuge Liang, Zhuge turned into a butterfly, Zhuge Liang followed the whereabouts of a nun all the way, at this moment, he seemed to finally understand something. It's just that he is more in awe of Zhuge Liang and regards him as a god.

"Baoyu, is this Zhuge butterfly our fruit?" Sun Shangxiang asked in a low voice, and without waiting for Wang Baoyu to answer, Wukong in his arms had already nodded, as if he had seen through the world.

"Sir, it seems that Guoguo has indeed been here." Wang Baoyu said, but there are different views on these words, a little magic can be done, the master is in the folk, it is not impossible to engrave the words and then make it old.

Alas! Zhuge Liang sighed slightly, and walked out silently, Wang Baoyu immediately ordered with a cold face: "No one is allowed to mention what I saw today." ”

Everyone nodded one after another, guessing that this matter was not trivial, Sun Shangxiang's eyes had a hint of envy, I really couldn't imagine that the little niece on weekdays had such a big opportunity. I don't know if she still remembers this aunt who is the best to her after she practiced?

"Baoyu, has Guoguo become a Buddha?" Sun Shangxiang asked.

"How can it be that easy!" Wang Baoyu sighed.

"Sooner or later, you'll become a Buddha, right?" Sun Shangxiang inquired beautifully, if Guoguo achieved a golden body, she would wait to be stained.

Stepping on the afterglow of the setting sun, the group went to see the Great Nirvana Pagoda again, the tower body is nearly 100 meters high, and there are many Sanskrit inscriptions engraved on it, although it is cumbersome, but it can be seen that these inscriptions are very attentive and meticulous. According to Xiangju, these contents are a detailed description of the Buddha's nirvana.

This is not the place where the Buddha really attained nirvana, the Buddha died in the forest of Sara by the Hiraniyadi River in the north of the city, and it was getting late, so he had to wait until tomorrow morning to rush over.

That night, Zhuge Liang, Wang Baoyu and others stayed in the city, according to the news heard by Xiangju, almost all the monks in the city went to the Lan City in the west, and the reason for this phenomenon was the rumor created by Wang Baoyu.

Zhuge Liang looked worried, didn't eat or speak, Wang Baoyu knew the worry in his heart, and today he saw Zhuge Guo's name, Zhuge Liang was worried about whether his daughter was bewitched by Pujing and others, and had dedicated her life to the Buddha.

Zhuge Liang almost didn't sleep all night, and the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Zhuge Liang left Maocheng with a group of people, all the way to the north, and went straight to Suo Luolin.

To the south of the Sarori line, it is the Hiraniyadi River, and it just so happened that a small boat was parked by the river, which was very dilapidated, Zhuge Liang didn't care about the danger, and took the lead in boarding the boat, and everyone crossed the river in batches, and Wukong simply swam over.

According to Xiangju, when the Buddha was 80 years old, it was after bathing in this river that he went to the woods over there to perish and complete the fulfillment of the Dharma.

The crowd walked through the dense jungle, and after a long time, they finally came to an open field in the forest. In the middle, there are two tall saras, with lush branches and leaves, leaning towards the middle, showing a hugging trend.
