Bypass the main hall, go straight back along the road, walk a cup of tea, and see a hall that is no different from the regulation of the front hall, and think that it is the place where the monks use fasting. The little novice led the way and entered the inner room, perhaps they were late, and the hall was full of monks, and one of them bowed their heads silently to a cake, a plate of side dishes, and a bowl of porridge in front of them.

Li Yuanqi glanced around, only to see that Nanhua and the others were already sitting inside, and when they saw him coming in, they were busy getting up. Li Yuanqi motioned for them not to move, so as not to disturb the tranquility of the hall. When he walked to the seat that the little novice had pointed out to him, he sat down peacefully, and picked up the dishes and chopsticks to eat.

Because the mother concubine believes in Buddhism, the dining room in the palace provides fasting meals to the Xianju Hall on the first and fifteenth days of each month. And he has been gluttonous since he was a child, and every time he fasts, he always thinks of a way to go elsewhere to fight the autumn breeze. But now I want to have some fasting with my mother, but I can't anymore.

Thinking of this, I can't help but wonder, I don't know if it's because I don't know how to cherish the blessings, God just wants to take away those good times, so that he knows that there are no reasonable benefits in the world since he was a child, and if he wants it, he has to earn it by himself.

While reverying, while silently exhausting the fast, Li Yuanqi followed the appearance of the monks, folded the dishes and chopsticks, got up and took them to the washing pool, rolled up his sleeves and was about to wash, Nanhua hurriedly came over to help him, but was stopped by Li Yuanqi waving his hand, so he had to stand aside and watch him do it himself.

As soon as he washed the dishes and chopsticks, he took the handkerchief handed by Nanhua, and saw Abra, who had just led the way for Nanhua and the others, walking towards him with a smile. Li Yuanqi took a few steps forward and waved his hand at him, and Ah Po Luo replied: "Has the prince of the county rested properly?" As soon as I ate, the abbot asked the little monk to lead everyone to scatter in the temple. ”

Li Yuanqi was looking for an opportunity to see the majesty of this Western Realm Shengsha, so he said: "Thank you Abbot for your concern, then Master Lao will lead the way." So he stretched out his hand and gestured to ask Apollo to lead the way, and he took Nanhua and the others to follow.

Li Yuanqi and his group followed Abra, passed through a row of low tiled houses, and saw a two-story attic in the west, which was not like the ordinary pavilion style in the west, but like the structure of the Central Plains. The blue glazed roof tiles shine in the bright sun, and the wooden porch is carved with beams and paintings, which is not exquisite.

Seeing Li Yuanqi and others stop to watch, Amara smiled and said: "This is the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of this temple, which contains 10,000 volumes of scriptures with many translations. When the abbot returned to Qiuzi from the Central Plains, he brought back a sketch of this pavilion, saying that it was drawn with the help of skilled craftsmen in the Central Plains. And specially invited the Central Plains craftsmen who traveled in this generation, and built this pavilion from the inside out according to the skills of the Central Plains, and now the pilgrims and tourists are extremely happy to come here to have a look. ”

After hearing this, Li Yuanqi nodded with a smile and asked, "Dare to ask the master, I don't know if you can enter here to borrow scriptures?" Apollo replied, "Yes." The prince of the county only needs to say a word to the disciples who are taking care of him. After saying that, he continued to move forward, and Li Yuanqi and the others also followed.

After walking along the road for a short time, dozens of high and low stone towers in front of him were scattered irregularly. Although I don't often go to the temple, I know that after the death of the respected monk in the Central Plains, he will be cremated on the spot according to the Buddhist rituals, and the remaining relics are buried under the stone pagoda, so there is a relic. Li Yuanqi expected that most of this place was also a cemetery for generations of monks, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Master, these stone pagodas are relics pagodas?" ”

Abra looked back and replied, "Exactly, here are the burial of the monks of our temple. ”

After hearing this, Li Yuanqi looked at the inscription on the tower next to him, but saw that it was engraved: "Aifei Da Muwa will return to the Elysium of Buddhism forever." After a moment, he continued to ask, "But why does this tower seem to be buried with a princess?" ”

Aboro glanced at Nataven, as if he remembered it suddenly, and replied, "Yes, there is another one. This princess was the side concubine of the previous king, and she was pregnant for a full month, but unfortunately she died in childbirth, and the poor prince did not survive. The first king was grief-stricken, afraid that her mother and son would not escape the pain of reincarnation, so he ordered my temple to practice 7749 days, and buried here together, building a tower to rest the soul. ”

After saying that, he recited "Amitabha" to the stone pagoda and continued to walk forward. Seeing this, Li Yuanqi didn't want to ask any more questions, so he had to take his entourage and go forward together.

After walking for about ten zhang, I saw several large halls arranged magnificently, quite like the pavilion of Tianzhu. The semi-circular dome is surrounded by dense adobe brick walls, and a row of square pavilions on the left and right sides stretch out, like a pair of goose wings.

Ah Po Luo led Li Yuanqi and his entourage, entered the main hall from the main gate under the dome, and only after entering the interior did he realize how ingenious the builder was.

The top of the dome is made of colorless glaze, and at noon, the sunlight will shine through the colorless glazed tiles on the four-faced Buddha in the center of the main hall. The gilded four-faced Buddha is illuminated by the light of the sky, which is extraordinarily golden and sacred**, and from the four directions, it is a school of Buddha light, such as the world's honorable world. The two wings are actually two halls, each neatly lined with hundreds of futons, even at noon, there are already many believers, facing the Buddha statues in their respective directions, praying and praying, chanting sutras and meditating.

Perhaps because of the ingenious design, or because of the piety of the believers in Qiuzi, Li Yuanqi felt quite special as soon as he entered this hall, and couldn't help but come forward to worship with incense. Looking up, Shizun was sitting on the lotus platform, smiling with flowers, solemn. The kind eyes still looked straight into his heart as he did when he was a child, but now he is no longer afraid and cowardly, and he can look back straight back, as if he were looking straight into his own heart. Whether he is cunning or ruthless, he already knows that this is the way he must go, and he has no choice.

After turning around these scenes, Li Yuanqi was about to open his mouth to ask for a return, but he heard Apollo say first: "After walking for half a day, I think the king of the county and all the distinguished guests are tired, and there are many pilgrims at the moment, and they will inevitably collide with you, so you might as well come here, and the poor monk will send you back to the guest room for a rest." ”

When Li Yuanqi heard this, he waved his hand and said: "Thank you for accompanying the mage, this king knows the way back, so he won't bother to send him off." Nanhua and the others also said that they could find their own guest rooms, and Amara was not reluctant, and sent them out of the main hall, standing outside the threshold and saluting each other.

Li Yuan prayed that Nanhua would return to Wuxiang Pavilion with him, and it was no problem to discuss each other behind closed doors.
