Chapter 433: The Golden Old Lady (Third Update)
Sure enough, just as the souvenir dealer said, the car stopped when it drove in front of the temple, and the driver and a large number of passengers got out of the car as if they had agreed in advance.
Although Wu Yi, the blind man and Ye Wuxin were all confused, they didn't have the time to ask what was going on at this time, they jumped out of the car, ran out two steps and squatted on the ground retching, and then breathed hard the fresh air outside.
When Wu Yi was almost vomited, he turned around and saw that except for a very few out-of-town passengers like himself, almost all the people who got off the bus had entered the lonely temple standing on the side of the road.
The blind man hadn't recovered from the bump until now, and asked Wu Yi what was wrong, if he had arrived at the Liuchizi Mountain.
Wu Yi glanced at the old temple, which was obviously a little old, and said,
"The place has not yet arrived, but when we arrived at a temple, the driver took the lead and went into the temple.
It's really strange, how did this barren mountain and wilderness build a temple here? Could it be a mountain temple? ”
The blind man was also a little surprised when he heard this, shook his head and said,
"No, Wu Ye, then even the mountain temple should be built in a place where there are people, otherwise how can you give incense to the mountain god? What kind of thing is it to repair in this wilderness? ”
Wu Yi said that he didn't know, maybe the residents of this place had a special hobby, and they liked to place the mountain temple in a place where no one was.
Ye Wuxin said on the side,
"No, this is not a mountain temple, what do you see on the couplet at the entrance of the temple?"
Wu Yi turned his head to look at the position pointed by Ye Wuxin when he heard this, and saw that on the pillars on both sides of the main gate of the temple, two vertical lines were drawn with gold lacquer, one on the left and one on the right, respectively,
"This is not a spiritual mountain, after all, what a world."
"If there is no living Buddha among them, why is it so solemn."
After reading it, Wu Yi immediately smacked his tongue and said,
"Lingshan? Living buddha? Could it be that this is a temple for the Buddha to burn incense? But I've been to some temples, and none of them have been built in a place like this where no one is around.
I said let's go first and see who is sitting inside, poor Baba is placed in this bird place, it is really a Buddha who will be crying urgently. ”
After Wu Yi finished speaking, he helped the blind man to walk towards the door of the temple, but after approaching, Wu Yi felt that it was a bit inappropriate to describe the master who was offered inside, because this temple is obviously not unattended, the entire temple has been cleaned and cleaned, and even the bluestone slab used to attract believers in front of the temple gate is not too thick dust.
In this kind of wilderness, as long as there is a gust of wind, the place will almost fly sand and rocks, and the outside of this temple is so clean, it is obvious that people will often clean it.
After entering the temple, Wu Yi confirmed his conjecture, the inside of the temple was also very clean, and from some Buddhist inscriptions carved on the walls on both sides, it seemed that this was indeed a temple, not a mountain temple.
The passengers who got off the bus before were respectfully kneeling on the ground and kowtowing at this time, and some of them also took out the incense and candle tributes prepared in advance from their bags and placed them on a mahogany table in front of them, looking as if they had come here to worship by car.
At this time, the mahogany table, has been full of things, Sanding gold lacquer incense burner is also full of incense, some of the incense has burned more than half, from the time estimate, it should be left by the passengers of the previous car, it seems that although it is located in the middle of nowhere, but the incense is extremely prosperous.
And the higher the popularity of this temple, the more curious Wu Yi was in his heart, what kind of Buddha has this charm?
While thinking like this, Wu Yi squeezed forward, and finally saw that he was on the sandalwood Buddha platform of the green lotus seat, which was about one meter high from the ground
It turned out to be an old lady with a golden body!
The old lady's golden body was not tall, almost like a normal person, she wore a bun at the back of her head, a small bag also painted with gold paint on her back, a stick in her hand, and she was not wearing any old clothes, but like the kind of dress in the thirties and forties of the last century.
Her appearance looks neither solemn nor solemn, and there is no trace of the boundless appearance of Buddhism that Wu Yi thought of in advance, but it gives people a crazy and ordinary feeling.
Seeing this, Wu Yi was stunned, how could such an ordinary old lady be enshrined in this temple? Could it be that this is a relative of a living Buddha? But even if it's a relative, it can't have that much appeal, right?
Ye Wuxin, who was behind Wu Yi, also saw the people enshrined on the Buddha platform, and his expression was also a little surprised, but unlike Wu Yi, he directly joined the kowtow team, knelt on the ground respectfully and kowtowed a few times, looking quite sincere.
Wu Yi was a little amused when he saw Ye Wuxin's actions on the side, and walked over to tell the blind man about the situation, and the blind man immediately covered Wu Yi's mouth and whispered in his ear,
"Master Wu, the two of us had better kneel down and worship her.
Since this master can enjoy the endless stream of incense here, it means that she must have some magical skills in the local area, although the ancestor of our upside down is not her, but you must know a word, which mountain you enter has to worship which Buddha, this is her home field, we outsiders come to her territory, and we have to give her some face, otherwise even if our ancestor comes, I am afraid it will not be good to protect us. ”
After the blind man finished speaking, he patted Wu Yi's shoulder again, and saw that Wu Yi still stood up and refused to kneel, so he had to whisper again,
"Master Wu, you also said just now, the people who worship the master above are all locals, if you don't worship, it is easy to offend them, the old man has dealt with the mountain people before, knows their temperament, simple and simple, and also cares about these etiquette.
These local etiquettes of their locality, we outsiders had better abide by them, otherwise it is really easy to have unnecessary conflicts. ”
At this point, Wu Yi couldn't do it without worshipping, so he had to smile bitterly, and reluctantly knelt down and kowtowed a few times at the golden body on the Buddha platform in front of him, and the blind man breathed a sigh of relief and knelt down together.
Bai Yue has been following behind Wu Yi, seeing Wu Yi's actions, she also knelt next to Wu Yi in a decent manner, showing that she was even more pious than Wu Yi, Wu Yi saw this, knelt on the ground and turned her head and said with a low smile,
"You kneel on your knees, you are the reincarnation of the great witch thousands of years ago, and the ancestor of this old lady is the same generation, she may have to call you aunt and grandmother when she sees you, you get up quickly."
