The Daxiong Hall is the most important hall in every temple.

Among them, above the main seat, the worship is the Buddha, the great day is coming,

And to the left and right, there are eighteen Arhats to worship it,

The Daxiong Treasure Hall in the Rakshasa Temple is not just a magnificent sentence that can be expressed.

I and Lao Song took the Daleng Yan Sutra, and walked cautiously all the way from the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, I don't know why, maybe those evil monks were frightened by us,

It's called a safety along the way, not to mention trouble, not even a fart,

The Daxiong Treasure Hall in front of us is at least four stories high, and the outside of the building is full of colorful paintings, engraved with many Sanskrit characters that we can't understand.

The four corners of the eaves are carved in the shape of a beast, and the hideous face makes the vest cold.

The gate is made of mahogany, about three or four meters high, and the two beast heads are strong and mighty.

The Daxiong Treasure Hall is like a hill, standing not far in front of us, giving people an indescribable sense of oppression.

At this time, the Rakshasa Temple fell into silence, and there was no voice from those evil monks, only the low voice of me and Lao Song,

"Go in now, get ready."

"Don't worry, I chant the scriptures and die to this group of grandchildren."

"Let's go, then."

"Let's go."

Four simple sentences of dialogue decided our next action.

The advanced Daxiong Treasure Hall broke the source, and made the father and them sober, and everything was easy to do.

Lao Song took the lead, carrying a huge bamboo slip on his back, and walked towards the gate of the Daxiong Treasure Hall with his head held high.

Of course, my evaluation of him is two words: pretending to be v forced,

I looked at the back of this grandson angrily, and followed helplessly, mother, when is it, can you not pretend,

When I walked outside the gate, I saw Lao Song stomping his feet, raising his head and yelling: "Open the door for Lao Tzu, hurry up." ”

This voice almost scared me to death, and he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, and scolded in a low voice: "Can you stop a little, no, you have to go to heaven." ”

Old Song Ben wanted to refute it, but when he saw that I looked like I was about to kill, he swallowed the words on his lips.

The grandson smiled and scratched his head: "What, let's get down to business first." ”

Before I could react, Lao Song raised his foot and kicked the door fiercely, only to hear a loud noise, and the door opened.

"What about the grandchildren?"

was about to open his mouth to scold him, but when he inadvertently looked into the Daxiong Treasure Palace, he was immediately dumbfounded.

The hall was empty, a few oil lamps emitted a dim light, there was no one here, the evil monk and the father were gone,

Without saying a word, the two of us ran in a few steps, and we couldn't see the reason when we looked left and right.

Could it be that those evil monks were really frightened by us, and ran a little faster.

"Don't worry, let's study the terrain first, and then we can clean them up later." Lao Song patted me on the shoulder and comforted,

I nodded and didn't speak, and walked around the Daxiong Treasure Hall with my head down, intending to study the source of this legendary Rakshasa Qi.

This Daxiong Treasure Hall has some obvious differences from ordinary temples.

Ordinary Daxiong Treasure Hall, left and right are eighteen Arhats, and in the center is the Great Ri Rulai,

Maybe it's because the space here is relatively large, and the ancients felt that it was a bit shabby to put eighteen Arhats, so they put five hundred Arhats here.

There are five rows on the left and right, and each row is fifty Arhat statues.

The statue of the Great Day is similar to the statue of the ordinary temple.

From the appearance, the whole body should be made of pure gold, about two stories high, with a compassionate look in the eyes and a solemn expression.

Put your hands on your knees, sit cross-legged, Buddha awe-inspiring,

The five hundred arhats are the most astonishing to us, this is a big project,

Each statue of an Arhat is lifelike, with facial expressions and gestures, it looks like it is alive, and the paintings are exquisite.

Looking at it, Lao Song and I both discovered a strange thing,

Five hundred arhats, it should be five hundred statues, but there are only four hundred and ninety-nine here, one short of one.

If it weren't for the neat placement of these statues, it would be difficult for us to find that there was a missing Arhat statue.

This one of the statues, located in the last row on the right, is very conspicuous.

glanced at Lao Song, walked over slowly with a calm face, and took a look.

Underneath these Arhat statues, the name of each Arhat is engraved, and the missing Arhat, named Venerable Strong, ranks one hundred and eighty-seventh out of the five hundred Arhats.

Ouch I'll go, this name is very domineering,

After Lao Song saw this name, his eyes showed a look of reminiscence, and when he saw that I was curious, he slowly talked about the origin of this Arhat.

At the beginning, the Buddha settled under the Bodhi tree, participated in the Buddha's path, and after the Tao was completed, he could purify all sentient beings.

But when he was about to succeed in enlightenment, he alarmed the fierce gods and evil spirits in the heavens, and they were afraid that once the Buddha attained enlightenment, they would not be able to do whatever they wanted, so they attacked him and prepared to kill the Buddha.

At this time, the Buddha already has a certain amount of mana, although these fierce gods and evil ghosts are aggressive, but they can't get close to the Buddha's body at all.

At this moment, the Venerable and the Eight Heavenly Gods were afraid that the Buddha would be missing, so they each appeared in sixteen incarnations to drive away evil spirits and demons and protect the Buddha.

In the future, Venerable Mighty became the Dharma Protector Vajra, protecting the Dharma, also known as Vajra,

"Old Song, you are knowledgeable enough." I looked at him adoringly, if I were to learn this religious knowledge, I wouldn't be able to learn it even if I died.

"When I was young, I had nothing to do, so I learned more from my family to learn more about these things outside of Taoism." Lao Song smiled modestly, but the smugness in his eyes betrayed this stinky and shameless grandson, pretending to be modest,

"Don't think about it, maybe this is the original construction when I forgot to put the Buddha statue, go to another place to see."

Seeing that he was still thinking about why this position was empty, I suddenly became angry, damn, it's useful to study this,

Grabbed the old Song who had opened the thinking mode and walked towards the center of the Daxiong Treasure Hall.

As soon as I walked in front of the Buddha statue of the Great Ri Nyorai, I immediately stopped.

"Bow down first, and let the Buddha bless the two of us to turn evil into good fortune and become auspicious in trouble." I pointed to the Buddha statue of the Great Ri Nyorai and said with a smile,

"Okay, I hope the Buddha didn't go to play cards with the Sanqing Ancestor this time, otherwise we would have prayed in vain." Old Song smiled,

After speaking, the two of us walked to the Buddha statue, knelt down deeply, and kowtowed three times reverently.

Buddha, you have to see clearly, we Taoist disciples are very devout to worship you, give some face,

With this in mind, I stood up and bowed three more times,

Suddenly, there was a sound of chanting Buddha behind the main hall,

"Nam no Amitabha"
