In the early winter, the temperature in the north plummeted, and there was already a faint sigh of air when talking, the remaining straws in the field were full of frost flowers, most of the migratory birds had flown south, and a few sparrows had landed on the bare branches, chattering about the cold of the northeast, and after a heavy rain last night, it indicated that autumn had gone away, and the days of freezing three feet had come slowly!

The car tires crushed the thin ice on the road again and again, making bursts of cracking sounds, but it did not affect the speed of the car, a look of ten miles of country road, the line of sight is particularly wide, and the fresh air outside the window slipped into the car, mixed with a trace of coolness!

"Brother Xing, how long will it take to arrive" Xue Ling, who was still in the back seat, sat anxiously in the back seat, the car had been driving for almost an hour, which made her anxious, and she kept asking for the time, sitting next to her Leng Hua kept smiling, and Zhao Jianbang was also helpless!

After a few rounds, the car stopped halfway up the mountainside, Leng Xing turned off and pulled out the car key, this action was too handsome in Xue Ling's eyes, "Finally arrived at the place, my waist is almost dead"

Songhua Temple is located in the middle of the mountainside of Shuanglong Mountain, built in what age has no way to study, the temple sits in the north and faces the south magnificently, the temple is three sections of seventy-two steps, all of which are paved by six feet long bluestone, people with poor physique walk up this 100-meter-long steps are difficult!

At a glance, the temple seems to be built on the clouds, the black wooden plaque is carved with four golden characters "Songhuabao Temple", the front hall, the middle hall, the main hall are more and more elevated, and the bronze glazed tiles reflect a piece of glow!

Locked the car door, Leng Xing picked up a slanted shoulder bag and carried it on his back, the four of them gave way and walked towards the steps, a gray-bearded monk under the plaque was sweeping the floor, and when he saw a few people coming, he put down the broom, put his hands together and said Amitabha Buddha from afar!

Walking to the gate of the temple with a panting Xue Ling, Leng Xing complained disgustedly, "What are you doing with this physique, how good it is to stop and take care of Sister Yue at home, this is just starting to be tired, no one will pull you when you can't walk for a while, climb back by yourself"

Zhao Jianbang bowed to the monk gentlemanly, "May I ask the master, can we go in?" Where there is incense, we have to worship the Buddha and make a wish"

The master folded his hands in front of his chest again, "There is free incense on the right hand side of the door, each person is limited to three, go and get it yourself" After speaking, he continued to sweep down the steps, according to his speed, I am afraid that he may not be able to sweep to the bottom before noon!

After receiving the incense, the four of them walked forward quickly, Songhua Temple covers a large area, if you don't speed up the pace, I'm afraid you can't finish a day, except for Xue Ling, everyone else has no intention to enjoy the scenery and worship the Buddha, hurriedly walk into the front hall, go to the main hall and other places must pass through here!

A few people looked at them one by one as if they were looking for someone, and then they walked out of the back door to the central hall, but there was nothing to find in the two halls!

"Third uncle, have you noticed, there seems to be only one master in front of the temple in front of the door, and I haven't met any monks along the way, what is the reason for this" Leng Xing asked suspiciously, he wanted to find someone to inquire, but he found that the temple was surprisingly quiet!

"Yes, third uncle, I also found out, don't you think it's strange that no one comes to play in such a big temple?" Leng Hua also felt a little abnormal, since she had this idea, she always felt a cool breeze on her back!

Zhao Jianbang didn't think so, "It doesn't matter if he has anyone or not, let's just find what we want, there are no in these side halls, let's hurry up and move forward, there are still many places we haven't found yet" said and walked towards the Daxiong Hall behind!

A few people who did not gain in the Daxiong Treasure Hall decided to act separately, there was a small bridge on the left and right sides, and there was a tower not far from the bridge, Leng Xing couldn't bear Xue Ling's prayers, and took her to the east, and Zhao Jianbang Leng Hua walked to the west!

Walk less than 300 meters, there is a white stone pagoda standing on the withered yellow grass, surprisingly the white pagoda does not have a door for people to enter, only a three-foot-high small window is still locked, and the tower has four big red characters "Relic Pagoda"!

Leng Hua shook the stone window a few times curiously, wanting to look in from the gap, not knowing what kind of existence it was, "Stop, how can you disturb the resting place of the relics of the late monk" A thick voice came from behind her, and Leng Hua, who was concentrating, was startled!

The master who swept the floor at the door stood not far away, and the voice just now came from his mouth, Leng Hua and the others looked at him in surprise, wasn't this master at the door just now, when did he appear behind him, this walking speed is too fast, not like a sixty-year-old man at all!

"I'm sorry master, the little girl doesn't know the rules and bother, I hope the master will forgive me" Zhao Jianbang folded his hands and apologized to the master, then turned around and bowed deeply to the stone tower, Leng Hua also hurriedly made amends, and the master's face gradually improved a lot!

"Amitabha, the weather is so cold in early winter, several donors don't worship the Buddha, and don't visit, what are you looking for?"

"I didn't look for any masters, just took a few children out to play, if it caused trouble to your temple, please forgive me, let's leave quickly"

"That's not necessary, I thought you were here to find the idol of the Blue Bodhisattva, since it's not, the poor monk can't help it" The master turned around and left!

Zhao Jianbang raised his head suddenly, and said in surprise, "The master is really a high-ranking monk, you can see our thoughts at a glance, we are indeed here to find the statue, and I hope the master will give me more guidance."

The master smiled, "I have something to think about, I want to do something, recently there have been several waves of donors in the temple, and the intention is the same, I guess you are not different, the direction is reversed, and the two little donors have been found"

"Master, you said someone else has been here before? And it's not just a group of people, is it? Zhao Jianbang asked anxiously, it seems that what he can think of, the other party has not forgotten, just follow behind others, even if he really finds out, he will be one step slower, it seems that he has to hurry up!

The master didn't answer, but walked towards the east side of the temple without looking back, his steps were slow, and he couldn't imagine how quickly he walked from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain, Zhao Jianbang and the two followed quietly, after crossing the two bridges, Leng Xing and the two were sitting on the stone bench to rest, and after seeing the master, they stood up and saluted!

A seven-storey 30-meter-high cyan stone tower appeared in front of everyone's eyes, the tower body is seven-sided and octagonal, there are ancient wooden windows on each side, the glass on the window is divided into a number of small pieces, the reason why it has not been cleaned for a long time, the glass has been particularly blurred, and it is difficult to see the furnishings in the tower outside!

There are seven horns poking out on the top cover of each layer of stone tower, each horn is tied with a wrist-thick iron chain, each hangs a basin mouth big copper bell, a cold wind blows, the copper bell makes an ancient and thick sound, a silver iron pillar on the tower has been rusted, the top of the column is as thin as a peak, interspersed with dozens of yellow cloth written spells!

Each layer of the stone tower has its own wooden plaque, a string of Sanskrit written names on it, they know a few people, a few people do not know these words, on the right side of the steps, there is a roadblock on the ground, there is a pair of couplets written in Chinese characters on it, the upper link is "right into the left and around three circles in this life, the body is healthy" the lower link is "left into the right turn five rounds of the next life as you wish" horizontal batch of four big characters "the tower of the seal of the murderer"

Looking at these four words alone is not too dazzling, but it gives people a sense of oppression, Xue Ling subconsciously grabbed Leng Xing's arm, and walked up the steps with a few people without leaving, Zhao Jianbang walked in from the left side in front, and several people followed closely behind, although there was no deliberate request, in the process of walking around the stone tower a few times, but no one dared to look at the tower, after the long and torturous five laps were completed, several people stood in front of the locked wooden door at a loss!

There were still two yellow charms on the door lock, firmly sticking to the door like a seal, "What you are looking for is inside, don't you want to see it" The master's appropriate proposal added some courage to several people!

Leng Xing took the brunt of the door and wiped the glass with his sleeve to look inside, only to look at it and then retreated in panic, "This statue looks so fierce, it feels like a living person, it's uncomfortable to be stared at by him"

After listening to Leng Xing's words, the two girls gave up the idea of watching, this time they were the role of accompaniment, and if they got nightmares, it would be worth the loss!

Zhao Jianbang walked forward and stood next to Leng Xing, the two looked at the tower again, this time for about three minutes, the two of them walked down the steps with satisfaction and came to the side of the monk!

"May I ask the master, why is this tower locked, and people who usually worship the Buddha and incense can't enter?"

"How many people have you seen worship the Blue Bodhisattva? This tower has a total of seven floors, suppressing a god layer by layer, and no one is allowed to worship, since you have finished reading it, then leave quickly, we are also about to take a lunch break"

"Lunch break?" Xue Ling was a little surprised when she heard this word!

"May I ask the master, why is you the only one in such a big temple, and the other monks?"

"Today, Saturday, I have gone home for both weekends" The master turned around and left, as if he was in a hurry to get off work!

Leng Xing checked the doors and windows, and found that the windows were all locked inside, in fact, a wooden square was used horizontally on the window, so that people could not push the window in from the outside, and checked the furnishings in the tower again, and several people walked down the mountain!

However, when he walked to the temple gate, a sixty-year-old monk came up to him, holding the one-person-high broom in his hand, "Master, weren't you still on the mountain just now, I haven't seen you go down the mountain this way, your legs and feet are the envy of our young people."

The master did not speak, but put down the broom to clean the ground, but the broom has been blocking the way down the mountain for several people, and it is only a few centimeters away from the toes, a few people take a step back, and the master will follow further, until Zhao Jianbang and the four of them retreat to the left hand side of the gate!

A huge iron box next to him reminded a few people, the merit box was written in red on a blue background, Zhao Jianbang glanced at Leng Xing knowingly, the latter took out two hundred-yuan bills from the crossbody bag and threw them into the box, and the master left satisfied!

Leng Hua smiled and shook her head, "Now I understand why many young people with a bachelor's degree or above do not look for suitable jobs, but choose to cut their hair and become monks, which is indeed a good income."

As soon as Leng Xing drove away, a blue car appeared where he parked, and four people got out of the car and hurriedly walked towards the temple!

The master who swept the floor at the door smiled, "Money again......"
