Chapter 759: Shaosen Temple
After more than four days of hurrying, Xiao Yan and his party finally arrived at the rumored "Shaosen Temple" before the deadline.
The four of them came to the mountain gate of Shaosen Temple, and before they entered the mountain gate, they had already heard the sound of chanting and the smell of sandalwood everywhere, which made Xiao Yan feel that he had come to a temple all of a sudden, so that he instantly had the idea of wanting to worship the Buddha, and then looked at the people who kept walking on the mountain, Xiao Yan had an illusion, as if they were not here to ask for relatives today, but to worship the Buddha and make a wish.
Seeing the doubts in the eyes of Xiao Yan and the others, Brother Xiao explained to them as he walked: "Don't be surprised, this is a feature of Shaosen Temple, the source of money for our ordinary sect forces generally comes from accepting disciples, completing tasks, etc., and this Shaosen Temple is very special, it is through people who come to them to burn incense and worship the Buddha, so as to make a wish to draw lots, and after the wish is fulfilled, the money that everyone spontaneously donates is used as their main income, they call this 'sesame oil money'."
Of course, there is also a part of the income that comes from collecting disciples, but they don't look at your natural strength, they look at what kind of wisdom root, saying that only people who are related to the Buddha are qualified to become their disciples, and after becoming a disciple, they have to shave their ordination and cut off the seven emotions and six desires and the past, so there are not many of their formal disciples, after all, not all people can do without desires.
However, there are a lot of their lay disciples, almost all over the entire fairy world, the threshold of lay disciples is low, as long as you believe in Buddhism in your heart, and hand over a certain amount of money, you can become their lay disciples, you can listen to several lectures of the master for free every year, there are discounts for buying scriptures, etc., and he does not restrict your personal freedom, you can be a disciple of other forces at the same time as their lay disciple, because the threshold of this lay disciple is very low, so many people will join them for convenience.
I heard that the Buddha enshrined here is very spiritual, so every day there will be a lot of people who come here to make a wish, and almost all of the people you see now come here to make a wish or make a wish, but this is just their most ordinary place, the real Shaosen Temple is behind the mountain. ”
"Back?" Xiao Yan and the three of them looked up in the direction of Brother Xiao's finger, and in addition to the layers of mist, they could only see those people who kept climbing upward.
"If you want to cut off the seven emotions and six desires, how could Huang Tingyu's parents get married and give birth to Huang Tingyu?"
Xiao Yan asked puzzled, after listening to Brother Xiao's description, Huangfu Nan and Tuoshe may be a little unfamiliar, but Xiao Yan is very familiar, the Tai Chi he learned belongs to Taoism, and this Shaosen Temple belongs to Buddhism, in Buddhism, disciples are not allowed to marry each other, let alone allow them to teach and give birth to children privately, but Huang Tingyu's grandfather is one of the elders of this Shaosen Temple, this truth will not be understood, how could he agree to Huang Tingyu's parents to combine and give birth to Huang Tingyu?
If her grandfather didn't object to the marriage of the heir, then Huang Fu Nan would be easy to do, it was just that he felt that Huang Fu Nan was not worthy of Huang Tingyu, but if his Buddhist ideas were deep-rooted and he didn't agree with Huang Tingyu getting married at all, it would be troublesome, so before proposing, this issue is the first thing to understand.
Listening to this question asked by Xiao Yan, Brother Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, smart! Most people will only be surprised by their strange customs, and few people can grasp this point, "I don't know the specifics, but I heard that the year when the civil unrest in Shaosen Temple began was the year when Huang Tingyu's parents got married. ”
"I see!" Xiao Yan nodded with satisfaction, there are some things that don't need to be said too clearly, just point to the end, if that's the case, it will be much easier.
Because the location of the front door of the Shaosen Temple is used for people to worship the Buddha, so the Shaosen Temple has set up a flight taboo, and Xiao Yan They can only climb up by themselves, in front of the big Buddha, Brother Xiao suggested that Huangfu Nan also burn a stick of incense, in order to pray that he can survive, Huang Fu Nan didn't want to burn it, but after thinking about it, since he has come, then burn a pillar, after all, he follows the customs, but Huang Fu Nan doesn't know, at this moment his incense has changed Huang Tingyu's grandfather's opinion.
Huangfu Nan took a stick of incense with a pious attitude, and also kowtowed to the Buddha statue like the people around him, and after kowtowing, a person who looked like a monk came over.
"May I ask if the donor's surname is Huangfu?"
Huangfu Nan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and then saw the man pointing to a small door next to the Buddha and saying, "Then the donor, please come with me." ”
Huang Fu Nan glanced at Xiao Yan and the three of them, and then followed this person and walked over, Xiao Yan and the three of them followed closely and went out of this door, Huang Fu Nan and several people came to a square, only to see that the square was full of people, and everyone looked at Huang Fu Nan with such bad intentions.
"Donor, please wait here, I'll go in and report it."
Then the man walked straight past the crowd and disappeared from the sight of Huangfu Nan and the others.
Xiao Yan looked around, looked at the people who were also standing around him, and a bad thought came to his mind, he dressed up in disguise, asked everywhere in the crowd, and collected news that was beneficial to Huang Fu Nan, usually this kind of thing was done by Huang Fu Nan, he only listened to the results, today Huang Fu Nan is the protagonist, then this kind of thing to inquire about the news has to be completed by him.
After several inquiries, Xiao Yan finally got the news he wanted, but this news was not what he wanted to see.
After turning around, Xiao Yan returned to Huang Fu Nan's side with a serious expression, leaned close to Huang Fu Nan, and said solemnly to him.
"Huangfu Nan, although I don't want to tell you, but you don't have to know, so, I'll tell you an unfortunate news now, these people standing in front of you, they are all here to fight Huang Tingyu with you!"
"What?" Huang Funan's voice suddenly raised a few octaves, and his high voice made everyone present turn their heads to look at him.
Xiao Yan made an apologetic gesture to them, and then continued to Huangfu Nan: "You are right, Shaosen Temple has launched a selection competition for Huang Tingyu in advance, this is only the preliminary round, according to him, many people have already entered the semi-finals, and they are now waiting for the roll call inside, whoever is called, who will go in for the first preliminary round." ”
"How can this Shaosen Temple not count? It's obviously not a month yet, so why should it be held in advance! Huang Funan couldn't help but complain.
Brother Xiao said earnestly: "This is the world is a world where strength is respected, don't complain that the world is unfair to you, you should strive to stand at the top and watch others shout that it's unfair!" ”
