Chapter 228: The Mysterious Lichen Temple
"Oh no, it's an avalanche."
Han Jiye has been walking in the mountains all year round and is no stranger to this voice.
With a rumbling sound, the earth shook and the mountains shook, as if a group of thunder was boiling, and as if a mountain collapsed and the ground cracked.
Everyone was so frightened that their faces changed greatly, and they hurriedly beat their horses and rushed forward desperately, but fortunately, because of Lin Yan's insistence, they deviated from the main way down the mountain.
It was only affected by some aftermath, but even so, they were still shocked by the power of heaven and earth.
When they finally escaped the scope of the avalanche, they looked back and saw that half of the snowy peak had collapsed.
I couldn't help but secretly rejoice that if they had returned the same way just now, I am afraid that they would have been wiped out and buried deep under the ice and snow by now.
The road behind him was buried by snow and ice, and after the avalanche just now, many places were empty underneath, and if you didn't step on it, you would be trapped.
Now I just don't want to find Soph, so I can't do it.
Providence is like this, and everyone has no opinion on Lin Yan's decision.
The mountain peaks here are endless, and if you want to go around the cliffs, you need to walk more than 100 miles.
At this time, it was snowing heavily, and the road could not be distinguished at all, no matter how anxious Lin Yan was, he had to take care of everyone's safety.
I had to announce that I would find a leeward place to rest and wait for the snow to stop before moving on.
But it was said that Suf fell from a cliff, and the wind was fierce in the air, and it was like a knife on her body.
There was a strange tranquility in her heart, and she knew that this time she had no chance of surviving.
Maybe it is a good place to be buried in thousands of miles of ice and snow like this, and the essence is clean and clean.
Then she smiled bitterly, she thought about whether it was too beautiful, she was born in the dirty mud, and what kind of quality and purity could she talk about.
Now it's just a fall under the cliff, not to mention a fall, and you can't escape the fate of being fed by this beast in the ice and snow.
There was a strange feeling of warmth when the snowflakes fell on her face, and Su Fu suddenly noticed that her falling figure seemed to be getting slower and slower.
When she opened her eyes, there were feather-like snowflakes everywhere, fluttering in the wind, and her body seemed to float in the air.
Drift along with these snowflakes.
This too fantasy scene made her brain blank, could it be that she was dead, is this the world after death?
She tried to move her body, but found that she could easily control her actions.
Falling lightly on the snow, the snowflakes in front of you automatically parted, forming a path in the heavy snow.
Sov walked slowly along the path.
I don't know how long she has walked, and in such a chaotic space, she has lost her judgment of time.
In the distance, a yellowish light lit up, like a morning star on the horizon, guiding her in the direction of her progress.
The lamp seemed to have some magical power, and Sofu somehow felt like she was going home.
There was something stirring in her heart, as if it was a fatalistic call that had been waiting for her for a long time.
The light seemed to be close at hand, but no matter how long she walked, it was still within reach.
"You...... Is it calling me? ”
She couldn't help but open her mouth and ask softly.
The lights suddenly became brighter, and the surrounding snowflakes gradually dissipated, and a simple temple with blue bricks and gray tiles appeared in front of me.
How could there be a temple here?
Su Fu walked over suspiciously, and there was an ancient plaque on the gate of the courtyard, mottled, which seemed to have been eroded by thousands of years.
Sofu rubbed her eyes, making them carefully. Chinese bar
On it are three quaint big characters, Lichen Temple.
This is the Lichen Temple? Is that a magical temple that can only be seen by those who are destined to do so?
"Bang bang!"
Su Fu knocked on the door, but no one answered for a long time, and she couldn't help but feel very strange, there was still a light inside, how could there be no one.
Looking up at the sky, it was gray and glowing with a strange white shimmer, and the sun, moon and stars were completely invisible.
There's no telling if it's day or night.
I tried to push it gently, and there was a "squeak", and the simple wooden door opened in response.
Looking through the door, there was not a trace of snowflakes inside, and a bluestone path led to three simple main houses.
The light was the incense offered in the main hall, but there was no figure in sight.
After a little hesitation, Su Fu resolutely stepped in and walked along the bluestone path into the main hall of the Lichen Temple.
There are three stone statues enshrined in the main hall, and Su Fu took a look at it, and it is not the traditional image of Sanqing.
In the middle, an immortal monarch with fluttering clothes, holding a astrolabe in his hand, carrying a sword, and his two fingers together, seemed to be doing it.
A man and a woman on the left and right, one holding a gourd and the other holding a whisk, are obviously his Taoist children.
Seeing a futon on the ground, Su Fu knelt down, bowed honestly three times, and looked up to see an oil lamp on the table, gently swaying in the wind.
The light was so faint that it seemed to be blown out by a strong wind at any moment, but it was it that guided itself all the way through the wind and snow.
Lichen Temple is indeed a magical place, and everything here cannot be inferred by common sense.
She had a strange illusion, as if she was in some kind of other dimension, not in this earthly world.
"Is anyone there, please?"
Sov asked politely, but she was answered by a boundless silence.
In desperation, I could only decide to go to the wings on both sides to take a look, and there were really people in the wings on the left.
It's a pity that he was a deaf and dumb old monk, and Su Fu talked to him for a long time, comparing and drawing, and finally found that he was still blind.
How is this communicated?
I saw the old monk kneeling on the futon, knocking on the wooden fish seriously, as if he was silently chanting in his heart.
Sov looked at it for a while, and found that the frequency of his knocking on the wooden fish was very mechanically accurate, as if it were an hour hand.
I suddenly felt a little numb in my scalp.
At this point, she suddenly remembered a very strange question.
This place is called Lichen Temple, and there is an old monk living in it, which seems to be normal.
But the person enshrined in it is a Taoist priest, which is too unreasonable.
Knowing that she couldn't ask anything, Sov had to turn to the wing room on the right, which was empty and there was no one.
There were bookshelves all around, full of books, and Sov pulled out a volume, only to find that there was no title, and it was covered with dust.
Apparently no one has seen it in a long time.
That's right, the old monk is a blind man, and it is impossible for him to come to read books, but the people who used to read books are no longer in Lichen Temple.
When she opened it, she was surprised to find that it was actually simplified Chinese characters, not the ancient traditional Chinese characters commonly used in the Liang Dynasty.
Moreover, it appears to be a notebook, recorded by an unsigned person, and some of his experiences are scribbled in it.
Sov sat on the futon, carefully flipping through the pages.
From his deeds, she soon found out that she had heard of this person, that is, the medical saint of the year: Guo Zhonghua.
It intermittently records his passage through the Great Liang Dynasty, and writes how ambitious he was and determined to change the backward medical level in ancient times.
