Chapter 35: Evergreen presides
Early the next morning, Yu Yan was ready to go. As soon as I ate breakfast, I met a wave of tourists, and when I inquired, I also went to the Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion.
That's just all the way, and it's also a good thing to listen to the tour guide's introduction by the way. Yu Yan followed behind the crowd and listened to the tour guide with relish:
Venerable Chang Qing is the abbot of the Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion on Mount Wutai.
Speaking of the Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion, many people are not very familiar with it, but when it comes to the Wuye Temple, everyone who has been on Wutai Mountain knows it, and no one knows it.
The Five Masters Temple is the Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion. Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion is also called the Five Masters Temple. The temple of the five masters is dedicated to the five masters. The fifth master is the five dragon kings, also called the five dragon kings.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion is not a big temple in Wutai Mountain. In terms of the area occupied by the temple building, it is a small temple on Wutai Mountain. But this small temple has been famous for thousands of years, and the incense is particularly vigorous. The mountain is not high, there are immortals, the name is not big, the temple is not big, there is a Buddha and the spirit.
Presiding over Changqing, he became a monk at the age of 7, joined the army at the age of 24, married a wife at the age of 26, re-entered Buddhism at the age of 50, and accompanied the rest of his life with the fragrance and green lantern.
Chang Qing, who was a monk at the top of the Bodhisattva in his early years, was a Han lama. He said that in the era when he was born, Wutai Mountain was not peaceful, and warlords from all walks of life came and went on the land of Sanjin, and later it was Japanese devils who "swept around". Even the monks who fasted and recited the Buddha also lamented that the current affairs were chaotic and the people were struggling to make a living, and some monks resolutely stepped forward to join the army and serve the country.
Hearing this, Yu Yan couldn't help but be in awe of the Changqing host. Just listen to the guide continue to introduce:
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the monks and nuns who fled everywhere returned to Wutai Mountain one after another. In 1952, the central government allocated special funds for the first time to renovate the temples on Mount Wutai, and in 1953, the Monuments Conservation Institute of Mount Wutai was established.
At the end of the Korean War in 1953, Chang Qing returned to his hometown in Shanxi Province after being discharged from the army, settled down in a village near Wutai Mountain, married a wife and had children.
Hearing this, Yu Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It turns out that it can be like this. Hmph, if Fang Yu dares to become a monk here, he will definitely ask him to be vulgar! Before he became a father, he wants to become a monk, but there is no door! No, no, he can't become a monk if he becomes a father!
Thinking so crankily, the tour guide suddenly raised his voice and said:
The most painful thing is that more than half of the more than 40 sets of musical instruments in Nanshan Temple, the most important place in China, have been passed down orally, and the music scores written in classical Chinese have been passed down orally for ten years, and these precious "Sanskrit sounds" have been turned into "heavenly books" that no one can understand.
Fortunately, in the early 80s, when China resumed its religious policy of protecting freedom of belief, the sound of chanting scriptures was heard again on Mount Wutai, incense was seen again, and the state allocated a large amount of funds to rebuild the temple.
In 1987, Chang Qing, who had been on earth for 34 years, made a decision: to become a monk again. Chang Qing came to a small lama temple at the foot of the Bodhisattva's top - Wuye Temple and became the abbot.
- Oh, there is a story like this. Then Master Huitong is older than Chang Qing, what kind of thrilling story has he experienced?
Suddenly it began to rain in the gloomy sky, sometimes big and sometimes small, and it stopped and fell. Yu Yan entered the temple courtyard and saw two pine trees in front of the Wuye Temple, which were lush and lush, tall and lush. The rain shone on the canopy of the trees, making the temple seem unusually silent.
It's better to go to the evergreen host first. Leaving the wave of tourists, she walked straight to the main hall.
The rain is still shivering and brushing the ground. The sky was low and dim. A young monk came into the house and said to Venerable Chang Qing that someone had approached him and asked if he would be brought into the dormitory or into the guest hall. Master Changqing shook his head and said that he was not in good health and would not see any guests.
The monk went out to reply, and after a while, he turned back again, holding a wooden plaque in his hand. Seeing this, Venerable Chang Qing immediately got up and instructed the monks to immediately bring in the living room.
"Evergreen is good. Yu Yan clasped her hands together and stood at the door and answered. She really didn't know what to call the meeting, so it should be like this.
"Amitabha!" Chang Qing folded his hands and saluted, "Donor, who gave you this sign?"
Yu Yan told truthfully: "If you return to the host, it is my senior brother Master Zhiran. ”
The Chang Qing presided over the invitation to sit down, ordered the monk to make a pot of good tea, and instructed the monk to say that if there were any guests, there would be no guests. After speaking, he stood at the door and looked around for a while, making sure that there was no one, and then closed the door.
Looking at his cautious appearance, Yu Yan was very puzzled: "Host, you are ......"
"Don't be so angry, one bite at a time. It should be called a different way. ”
Seeing that Yu Yanwu was stunned, the host of Changqing knew that she didn't understand the reason, so he said: "Since it was brought over by Zhiran, there is no need to hide it from you." Master Huitong and I once had a life-and-death friendship on the Korean battlefield, and we shared weal and woe together, going through life and death. Later we became brothers. ”
"Ah, it turned out to be Uncle Shi!" Yu Yan was taken aback, and she got up to make a big salute.
Host Chang Qing stopped her and said, "You and I are not outsiders, so there is no need to be like this." ”
Chang Qing presided: "I participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea at the age of 19, and at that time, Huitong was already 54 years old. He is an old revolutionary, and we were born and died together, and formed a friendship of life and death. Later, I came to Wutai Mountain to become a monk. ”
"What about Master?"
"He came a year after me. ”
"Aren't they together?"
"His only wife and daughter were killed by devils. He promised his wife that he would return home for a year after the invaders drove out of China. He said that this year, he has seen through the red dust, and although he is in the world, his heart has already entered the Buddha's door. ”
"Master, how is his old man now?"
"He is old and has limited mobility, and now he has time to take care of his daily life. Speaking of this, the Changqing host sighed, and a trace of sadness crossed his eyes.
Yu Yan was about to say something to comfort her, but she heard Chang Qing preside: "The day before yesterday, Master Fang's nephew wrote that there was a beautiful girl named Jin Yuyan who would go up the mountain in the next few days. He was afraid that I would not be able to wait, so he carved a wooden sign and sent someone to me. said that whoever brought this wooden sign to the girl must be his beloved, and he could see it. Just because I am busy with affairs, I will have someone to take care of it. ”
"Oh, I see. Then it doesn't have to be so mysterious, right?"
"Alas, Huitong has all the skills, accepted four apprentices, and had no choice but to become a traitor! ”
"Is Uncle Shi talking about Li Xijun?"
The host of Changqing nodded and said: "Twenty-five years ago, he fainted in Wutai Mountain, met Huitong by chance, and after being rescued, he was grateful to Huitong and was willing to become a monk, often accompanying him. Huitong was influenced and accepted him as his third apprentice. Unexpectedly, after completing his studies, he turned out to be a devil with human blood on his hands, and he didn't expect that all this was a game carefully planned by him. The senior brother was furious and expelled from the school. Unexpectedly, he was outside under the banner of his senior brother, burning, killing and looting, and now he is the leader of the gang, known as Lafayette. ”
- Galeries Lafayette!?
Hearing this name, Yu Yan couldn't help but exclaim. In Liu Yuxuan's gym, when she was trapped, she heard Gao Tian and another man's conversation, which mentioned this "Lafayette", but she didn't expect that it was the master's third apprentice!
"What, my nephew knows this person?"
Yu Yan hurriedly shook her head and said resentfully: "I haven't seen him, and I'm almost ...... by his subordinates Fang Yu also mentioned this Lafayette, presumably this person. ”
Host Chang Qing nodded and said, "Exactly." The senior brother ordered Fang's nephew to go down the mountain, cooperate with the police to arrest the person, and if necessary, cooperate with the police to clean up the door. ”
"How long has Fang Yu been out?"
"Counting the time, it's been almost five years. After a pause, Chang Qing presided over, "How did Senior Nephew recognize Senior Nephew Fang?"
Yu Yan said: "According to this calculation, our meeting was after he went down the mountain. ”
So, she told the story of herself and Fang Yu one by one, and by the way, she also informed the host of Chang Qing about the necklace.
"Amitabha!" Chang Qing clasped his hands together, "You two really love each other, and Uncle Shi originally blessed you." But ......"
Chang Qing presided over: "The world of teachers and nephews is not over, and the Buddha's fate is not over. ”
"Buddha Yuan?" Yu Yan was a little incomprehensible.
"Everything has a cause and effect. I didn't expect this fate to be with you. Creation and Transformation!" Chang Qing presided over the sky and laughed loudly and said, "Master and nephew, this necklace of yours is the biggest Buddha fate!"
"I heard that this is about a treasure. Uncle Shi knows?"
"I heard from my senior brother that it was about the treasures of the Yuan Dynasty. ”
"I want to hear about it. ”
"Since Genghis Khan's annihilation, the Song Dynasty, the Western Xia, and countless countries, the Yuan Dynasty has created a powerful country across Europe and Asia from the desert in the north, the Ganges River in the south, Korea in the east, and the Mediterranean Sea in the west. After more than 90 years of rule, it has accumulated enormous wealth, which encompasses the vast treasures of dozens of countries for generations, and it is by no means a small number. ”
"A joint expedition team from many countries has conducted in-depth research in Inner Mongolia, but nothing has been found. ”
"Even if our people can't find it, but this treasure that belongs to the motherland must be buried under our Chinese soil!"
Chang Qing presided over: "In this chain, it should be a map, and he can hand over such important things to you for safekeeping, which shows how important you are to him." ”
"Then I don't understand a little bit, where did this map come from?"
"It should have been drawn by my senior brother. ”
"Then where did Master come from?"
"My brother's wife and daughter are Mongolians. After the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, he went back. It should have been discovered by accident, and the senior brother did not talk about it in detail. Every time I talk about this, my brother is heartbroken, and I don't want to ask anymore. ”
After chatting about this, Yu Yan finally said the purpose of this trip: "Uncle Shi, just now you said that I have a Buddha fate, can you take me to meet Master now?"
