Chapter 61: The Zoo

To get to the main hall from Jingxinzhai, you will first pass by a spring with a small wooden scoop on the water. Next to it, it is called the Prayer Spring.

There is also a column of small print next to it, which says that drinking the spring water here will bring luck to people.

We wanted to laugh but held back, after all, this is a Buddhist place, and we should be more serious, especially since there will be monks wearing robes passing by from time to time. Xu Chule acted in his true colors, and he has always been very serious.

They don't say things like "Amitabha" or "donors" like in the TV series, they just do their own things in silence and meticulously, even if it's just hanging out.

After a big bend, we finally came to the main hall, and the one we saw before can only be called a small hall.

In the main hall, I finally saw the Buddha statues and eighteen Arhats in the mouths of passers-by, all wrapped in bronze bodies. The golden statue of the Buddha stands in the center of the main hall, quite the style of the ninety-five honor.

And the jade statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea is also placed in a conspicuous position, why emphasize the South China Sea, because I vaguely remember that Guanyin was a man at first, and then I have almost forgotten why it became a woman.

The abbot or abbot in the robe recited the scriptures in the side hall, and I don't understand whether it is the pineapple sutra or the mantra of the rebirth, and I only have the great compassion mantra in my mind.

The pillars inside the hall were carved with some Sanskrit inscriptions, and I knew nothing but the symbol that resembled the cross.

I know that because Hitler's troops wore this strange armband, which was pronounced "10,000". The Sanskrit word reads "Sri Raksa", which means "auspicious sea and clouds", that is, an auspicious symbol presented between the sea and the clouds.

It is also painted on the chest of the Buddha Nyorai, and is considered by Buddhists to be "Ruixiang", which can gush out precious light, and its light is swaying, and there are thousands of colors.

There is an endless stream of people praying at the main hall, which reminds me of the people who go home every year to go home for the Chinese New Year to go to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors and worship the god of the land.

Although I don't believe in this kind of thing every time, if God can really manifest spirits, then why don't we sit at home and burn incense and worship Buddha every day, and run out to work. Even if God can hear it, so many wishes, the queue will have to wait until a hundred years later.

But every time I walk up to them, I still have a serious face and don't think about other distractions at all, just like every time I pass by the grave, I silently say to myself, "Borrow, borrow." "

Maybe you don't believe in many things, but there is a deep shadow of it in your mind, just like the negative person who once vowed to forget, after walking in the indifferent world, you will find that it is still the deepest relationship with her/him.

Everyone who comes to worship the Buddha will make incense and then kneel on the mat to make a pious wish, and some even pull the child together, perhaps to protect his life, or to hope that he will succeed in his studies.

Next, everyone will go to the other side to buy peace charms, I heard that there were originally fortune tellers and lottery drawings, but the mage has passed away and there are no two procedures.

Zhou Peng and I made a wish one by one, after all, they couldn't really come to join in the fun, and then they also asked for a peace charm.

When he walked out of the main hall, Zhou Peng began to gossip, "What kind of wish did the fourth child make?" "

I looked at him deeply, "It doesn't work." "

Zhou Peng snorted disdainfully, "Cut, I usually think you don't believe in this the most, but today you are in disguise." "

He leaned over to Yang Yuhao's face again, "Are you right?" "

Yang Yuhao is not stupid, this is obviously trying to pull hatred, he will definitely not wade into this troubled water, he shook his head again and again, "I don't know, I don't know." "

Zhou Peng still didn't give up, after all, human curiosity can't be stopped, he whispered: "I guess it's marriage, it must be the girl who sent you back, I saw you walk together later, called Qiao...... Coming? "

I never expected Zhou Peng to suddenly say this, I think Xu Chule should have heard something, and I was thinking about how to hide it.

Xu Chule responded, "Joey." "

Zhou Peng suddenly came to his senses, "That's right, that's right, even if Joey, Lao Chu, do you know her?" "

Xu Chule smiled slightly, "Well, I know, it's a good girl." "

I'm really afraid that if this continues, Zhou Peng will have to confess all my affairs, although I said that I thought about the day when the truth was revealed, but it would be a day to delay it.

We quickly left the temple, but instead of going back the way we came, we took another mountain trail because we could pass the zoo.

I remember that there was a choice in the psychological test about whether to go back the way after climbing the mountain or find a different path, and I personally felt that the test was a bit accurate.

That section of the mountain road was a bit quiet, and I didn't see a few people before and after, after all, we didn't take the main road, and we went to the side gate of the zoo.

Others who go to the zoo specifically should take a direct bus or drive to the zoo gate. The zoo is actually not very popular anymore, because the downtown zoo has become a perfect place after it was relocated.

Coupled with the team's operation and publicity, the fame overtook this old zoo at once.

But I don't think it's like a zoo, it's like real nature, and I think the animals in it are happier than the animals that are kept in cages all day long.

We soon saw a deserted mental hospital, and we really didn't expect that the mental hospital was located in such a deep mountain and old forest, and all the bad remarks in these newspapers poured into our minds.

In fact, I have always been interested in places such as nursing homes, orphanages, and mental hospitals, but a friend who has been engaged in related work has told me that when I first went to this kind of place, I was very depressed and uncomfortable, and I could only settle down after staying for a long time.

I don't know how long we walked and finally arrived at the side door, the ticket staff gave us tickets very casually, and they didn't sell enthusiastically, nor did they have a cold face, in short, it was very casual, which made people feel very unaccustomed.

The place we started to see was the peacock, two peacocks standing on a pillar that resembled a cantilever, unmoved by the noise or feeding of the watchers.

There was a cute little kid who kept shouting, "Peacock, open the screen quickly!" "

made everyone laugh, because everyone knew that the peacock opening screen was a manifestation of courtship, which could be seen if you wanted to see it, everyone just laughed and dispersed after a while, and no one explained why to the child.

Then there is the ostrich, I usually hear that the ostrich has a lot of running speed, but I can't see it here, I can only see that its legs are really long, and I can barely admit this fact. In addition, I think its neck is quite long, but it looks weird compared to the thick hair on its body.

Elk, hyenas, goats, cheetahs, and tigers were all watched by us one by one, but unfortunately the Siberian wolf could not see them. Although there is a brief introduction written outside, it is true that there is no figure in sight, so it may only come out at night.

When I was a child, I was fascinated by this animal when I read "Dream of the Wolf King" written by the animal king Shen Shixi, but I never had the opportunity to see it, so that I often used Erha as a substitute for them.

Zhou Peng and Yang Yuhao have been looking forward to the big python, what a golden python, and a forest python. These stem from the python crocodile fights that they usually love to watch on TV.

As a result, after I went, I found out that there was no big python, but it was a small python, and the golden python did have it, but the forest python should be regarded as a dream.

But fortunately, the cobra on the side made up for their disappointment, and they were thinking again, "If the cobra and the rattlesnake fight, who will win?" "

Elephants, hippos, giraffes, South China tigers are the animals we watch from afar. When I saw the elephant's camp surrounded by sharp awls and an indescribable tool, I always thought of the elephant being beaten.

I have seen the footage of elephant tears in the human and nature program, and I will always feel inexplicably sad in my heart, like the antelope jumping off the cliff, the tear-jerking story of the old cow kneeling all at once.

I once had a cat, a big yellow cat, and he was usually a mischievous mischievous ghost. Sometimes they steal food, sometimes they crawl on my books to leave dirty marks, and sometimes they curl up and lie next to me to sleep.

When it yawns, it shows its two sharp teeth, and when it stretches its waist, its body is very long, and its claws are all exposed, but when I touch its forehead, it is honest and enjoys it.

But one day it got sick, and I saw that day that it was listless, and it kept rubbing against my feet in front of me, and I thought it was playing and ignored it.

I gently touched its head as usual, and I noticed that it was actually crying, and I thought it was hungry and went to find something to eat.

Who knew that after coming back, I didn't see it, and a few days later, someone found its body on a ridge in the distance, and only then did I know that it was dead.

That's when I learned that cats and dogs would secretly hide and die slowly when they knew they were going to die.

I think it must have fallen from somewhere and injured its internal organs, but unfortunately it should be the ninth life, and I was sad for it for a while.

I buried it with my own hands, and set up a wooden sign, but I hesitated when I engraved the name, and I have been calling it rhubarb for so many years, but when the dog barked, I changed it to a "peace" name after death, and I hope it will go well over there.
