Chapter Sixty-Six: Visiting the Empty Tang Dynasty

I looked at Chunting in confusion, my eyes full of inquiry.

Xingkong did not hide it, he had already told us where this Lushena Buddha was located, but what he said should be the name of the place in ancient times, but for a moment I did not have the slightest impression of the place he said about Yique.

But fortunately, although I don't know, but judging by Chunting's reaction, he already knows where this Yique is.

"There is such a place, where the Xiangshan and Longmen Mountains on both sides of the strait are opposed, and the Yishui flows in the water, and it looks like a naturally formed gate from a distance, so since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it has obtained a figurative title, Yique."

Seeing that I still hadn't figured out where this Yique was, Chunting shook his head helplessly and explained further to me.

"The two mountains face each other, Yishui flows, such as the natural gate, so it is called Yique, the capital of the Sui Yang Emperor Luoyang, because the palace gate is facing Yique, the ancient emperor and the true dragon son of heaven called himself, so it was named Longmen, and the name of Longmen is still used today."

After Chunting's simple and straightforward explanation, I suddenly realized that the Yique in Xingkongkou was Longmen.

Longmen, called Yique in ancient times, called Longmen after the Sui and Tang Dynasties, here the two mountains are sandwiched, the shape is like a natural gate, Yishui flows through it like a long dragon through the door, the two sides of Yique are Longmen Mountain and Xiangshan respectively, Longmen Mountain is the famous Longmen Grottoes, Bai Juyi once said that the victory of the landscape in the western suburbs of Luoyang, Longmen is the first Yan, so Longmen Mountain is known as the first of the eight major scenery of Luoyang very early.

Putting together the clues that Xingkong said, the dragon gate, the Buddha statue, and everyone in the world knows......

If so, I suddenly had a guess.

"Abbot Xingkong, could it be that the Lushena Buddha in the Ming place in your mouth is in the Longmen Grottoes?"

I sorted out my thoughts and looked at Xingkong in disbelief and asked.

"Donor, the Longmen Grottoes are well known to the world, and the Lushena Buddha carved here is worshiped by the people of the world, in contrast, the Huanghua Temple in my area can only worship the Buddha Virujana in the dark."

Although Xingkong did not answer directly, it was not difficult to hear the acquiescence from his words.

Before we could think about it, Xingkong suddenly looked at the three of us, and for the first time his face showed a sly look that was not in line with his age.

"Three donors, if the poor monk expects it to be true, you should go to the Dragon Gate next, right?"

Xingkong's sudden words shocked us, could it be that he saw our intentions?

Yi He secretly clenched his fist behind him with one hand, then looked at Xingkong with a frown, and tentatively asked him, wondering how much he knew about our intentions.

"Abbot Xingkong, we are here to repay our wishes, I don't know what you mean by this, why do we want to go to the place of Longmen?"

Xingkong smiled, he didn't have the appearance of a so-called monk at the moment, but motioned for us to follow him into the meditation room, and after closing the door, he looked at us with a deep meaning.

"Three donors, it's boring to say this, what Huanghua Temple has built for thousands of years is to protect this secret, if I don't know your roots, I can't say that I know about this Lushena Buddha."

Hearing Xingkong's remarks, the three of us glanced at each other, and the surprise in our hearts was not hidden at all.

Did this emptiness know what we were trying to do from the time we first came?

Chunting's face began to become serious, and he looked at Xingkong and said something to confirm seriously.

"You already know why we're here?"

Xingkong seemed to be very leisurely after explaining our intentions, looking at us with a friendly smile in his eyes.

"You all came here to look for clues, since you said that you want to rebuild the temple and reshape the golden body, then I, as the abbot, naturally have no reason to stop it."

We were speechless and smiled bitterly, thinking that our reasons were reasonable, so Xingkong did not suspect it at all, but I didn't expect that it was Xingkong who was wise and foolish, and it was not until today that it was debunked, it seems that Jiang is still old and spicy, and we are still too young.

After we entered the meditation room, we sat on the pre-arranged futon, Chunting heard this, suddenly stood up, and for the first time seriously bowed to Xingkong, his tone was rare respect.

"Dare to ask why the master is like this?"

Seeing this, Xingkong hurriedly helped up Chunting, no longer teasing us, and talked about why he knew our intentions, but he didn't say anything about it.

"Before you came, the Yebai benefactor also came here, and he held the ancestor token and gave me instructions."

We didn't have time to think about why Yebai had been here, but looked at Xingkong seriously, wanting to know the secret of this Huanghua Temple from his mouth first.

Xingkong no longer flickered, looked at us, and told the hidden story of this Huanghua Temple.

"This Huanghua Temple has been built since the beginning of the temple, in fact, it is only to hide a secret, this secret is a dark room that was hidden in the temple when the temple was built, and the treasures hidden in the dark room are said to involve the safety of Shenzhou for thousands of years, so this secret has only been passed on to the abbot for generations, and has never been leaked."

After listening to what he said, our faces unconsciously appeared happy, sure enough, this Huanghua Temple is indeed the place where the statue is hidden, and since he can speak to us bluntly, he must not hide this specific location.

However, while our faces were joyful, Xingkong shook his head, and he continued to speak, and what he said again from his mouth seemed to pour a basin of cold water on us.

"Don't be too happy for the three donors, this secret is no longer in the temple now, and even the dark room left behind at the beginning has long been deserted."

I really couldn't withstand such repeated blows, and blurted out with wide eyes and shocked faces.

"What, deserted?"

Chunting motioned for me to calm down, since Xingkong opened his mouth, presumably there would be nothing to hide, we might as well calm down and listen to him finish telling the story of this thousand years ago.

After Xingkong saw that I was calm, he stood up and looked into the distance and began to remember.

"According to the oral tradition of the abbots of the past dynasties, there were evil people in the Tang Dynasty, this person did not know where to know the secrets in this temple, so he came to the Huanghua Temple to try to take away the treasures stored in the dark room, the monks in the temple compared to it are like a chicken without the power of a chicken, naturally there is no way to resist, just at this critical moment, there is a god here."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but think, where is the god in this empty mouth, is there really a so-called immortal in the Tang Dynasty?

Xingkong didn't pay attention to my thoughtful look on the side, and he continued to talk about the rest of the story for us.

"After a desperate struggle, the gods drove out the evil people, because this place has been known to outsiders and is no longer hidden, so the gods took the treasure from the dark room, and found a new place to preserve it, after careful consideration, the god finally chose the place of Yique as the place where the treasure is stored again."

Speaking of this, Xingkong seemed to remember something, looked at us, and said something else.

"By the way, there is another important thing for the Yebai donor to let me tell you and others, saying that as long as I tell you, you will know the source of all this."

We were all curious, and we couldn't help but ask Xingkong, and at the same time, we secretly guessed in our hearts, what could be more important than this matter?

"I hope the master will teach you."

Xingkong seemed to be recalling what Yebai said, and as the memories slowly spoke, his face was full of confusion.

"Yebai benefactor asked me to tell you and wait, after the god drove away the evil people, he went to Fuqiu Mountain and Da Ling Mountain, he didn't say what the god did on this trip, only said that he wanted me to tell you, you will know what it is" Baizhi "Guanshan Chronicle Claw Book House" The latest chapter ......is free to read for the first time.
