We drove all the way north, and I don't know how many times I got lost in the car, when suddenly, a sudden brake pulled me back from my half-asleep sleep. I opened my eyes and looked around, and there was already lush vegetation around me, how could this be in the forest again.

"Uncle, aren't we going to Qingliang Temple on Wutai Mountain, there should be a big road, why did you run into the woods."

"Hehe, do you think I want to, this second driver doesn't recognize the road, let him find someone to ask him and he doesn't ask, just say it's good to go by feeling, Lao Tzu has already sent him to Zhou Gong just now, let's go, we should not be far from Wutai Mountain now, let's take two steps if I have nothing to do." It's really unlucky, I can't sit in a car, and I have to walk.

We walked for half an hour, and we came to the main road again, and there were many pedestrians on the main road, all of them holding incense candles and other things, and it seemed that they were going to Wutai Mountain to incense. We happened to be going to Wutai Mountain, just to ask about the situation.

"This big brother, you all go to Wutai Mountain to incense."

"Yes, aren't you, today is the day of the incense stick, everyone wants to ask for a good omen, you should also leave quickly, otherwise it will be difficult to leave after a while." There is no doubt that we are on the right path this time, and we will not be wrong to decide as long as we move forward with the flow of people. But today is just in time for the day of incense, and our luck is also good.

We followed the crowd and walked all the way up the hill, and after a while, the crowd suddenly stopped moving. However, instead of moving on, the crowd was discussing, and it seemed that something was going on. My uncle patted Qin Wu and let him walk in front. Qin Wu didn't lose his strength in the end, and it was very easy to open up a path for us, and we could finally go to the front and see what happened.

I only saw that on the way up the mountain, I don't know who made two fences out of wood to block the road, who hated it so much and set up such a roadblock. I was about to go up and remove the fence, but my uncle stopped me, and he made a gesture to me to continue to observe the situation. At this time, from the path next to the fence, several big monks with shaved heads came over, still holding various things in their hands, and at this time a big monk led by us had already arrived in front of us.

"Dear donors, our Hebei Zen Master said that there are too many pilgrims today, if everyone rushes to the first pillar of incense, it will inevitably cause unnecessary quarrels, and it is more likely to cause a stampede, so Hebei Zen Master decided to let you bid, and the highest bidder can get the right to the first pillar of incense, and can have a cordial and friendly meeting with our Hebei Zen Master. If there are no objections, you can start bidding. After saying that, the two monks brought over a table with a hammer on it, and it seemed that this was really going to be auctioned.

"Pilgrims, our auction is about to start, please keep quiet, we will start from 100,000 in a while, and increase the price at least 10,000 each time, and there is no upper limit. If you want to increase the price, you can raise your hand, and our staff will help you complete the bidding, please be calm, and our auction will start immediately. "This big monk shouted to us with a loudspeaker, how do I feel that he used to be an auctioneer, and he is very skilled in business. At this time, there were already many little monks next to him who began to come to the middle of the crowd, and they should have helped to count the situation. There is also a small monk holding an incubator next to him, and there are also those pushing carts, selling all kinds of things.

"Dear friends, today's auction of the first pillar incense will start, with a starting price of 100,000 yuan, and a minimum of 10,000 yuan each time, and the auction will start now." As soon as this was said, the shouts below rang out, and it seemed that everyone was determined to get this pillar of incense.

"I'll give 150,000." "I'll give 200,000." "I'll give 300,000. Don't even rob me. "The price is going up, and everyone is arguing, but it has nothing to do with a few of us. First, we didn't come to incense, and second, we didn't have that much money to spare.

"A million first, a million second, a million third, a million deals." The big monk who presided over in front finally dropped the hammer, and a half-bald middle-aged man bought the pillar of incense, and walked up with the big monk one after another, leaving us people to continue to wait here. However, everyone didn't show too much anxiety, probably because they had all experienced this kind of thing. At this time, I suddenly noticed that the excitement around me began.

"Come on, come on, don't miss it when you pass by, I'm here to exclusively sell the talisman that Zen Master Hebei personally opened, decide to be genuine, eight hearts and eight arrows, eight hearts and eight arrows, as long as 998, as long as 998. You can't buy it at this price, and you can't be fooled, and there will be no such store in this village. "I'll go, is this a direct sales club? When I looked at the other monks next to me, we were even more surprised.

"Peanuts and melon seeds grilled fish fillet, come, let the feet." There's also a little monk pushing a cart and selling things. I'll go, what the hell is going on here, are these all monks? At this time, my uncle suddenly ran to the monk who sold eight hearts and eight arrows, and held all the amulets in his arms.

"Great monk, I have bought all these talismans, how much do you have, how much I want." As soon as the great monk heard how much my uncle wanted, his eyes lit up.

"Amitabha, the donor is really kind-hearted, and buying so many talismans will definitely treasure the safety of the whole family. Donor, there are almost a thousand amulets here, one 998, one thousand is 998,000, so let's give the donor a discount, just give 990,000, how about it. Whether the donor is cash or a credit card. As he spoke, the great monk put one hand on his chest and made a Buddhist ceremony, but the other hand stretched out towards my uncle.

"This, you see that the person just now took a million to meet your Zen Master Hebei, but I spent a million, but I didn't ask to go to the pillar incense, but it's okay to arrange for us to meet Zen Master Hebei." The great monk looked at my uncle and seemed to be very embarrassed.

"Zen Master Hebei is old, it is not suitable to see so many people, if Mr. wants to see the Zen master, we can introduce it, if these friends also want to see the Zen master, I'm afraid it is not easy." After speaking, the great monk stretched his hand forward a little more. I can see it now, this great monk still wants money. See what my uncle has to say.

"This is easy to do, why don't I buy another 18,000 amulets, anyway, I have a lot of friends in the business field, I can give them them, these are the sesame oil money for my filial piety to your temple." Master, this should be enough for us to meet the Zen master together. ”

"Enough, enough, enough, enough, enough, let's go up now." The great monk bowed to us as he spoke, and his head was about to hit the ground. We followed the great monk to a secluded path for a day, and after a while, we had come to the door of the temple. Looking at the magnificence of this temple, I am afraid that I usually don't take less money for sesame oil. At this time, the big monk called a little monk at the door, the little monk ran away quickly, and the big monk took us to a side room to rest, during which the big monk also made us tea.

"Give it a bit, in the remote countryside, there is no good tea to entertain everyone, just drink it." After speaking, the great monk skillfully performed a tea ceremony for us and made a cup of tea for each of us. I picked up the teacup and drank it all, but my uncle was there savoring it. When I look at him, it seems that he has an endless aftertaste.

"I said the great monk, you are so polite, you actually took this top red robe in Sichuan to entertain us, this thing is more expensive than gold per gram, you are really bloody." Oh, this thing is more expensive than gold, and I picked up the teapot and wanted to pour another drink, but I found that the pot had bottomed out.

"This gentleman has really seen the world, and this product has also come out." The big monk had just exchanged a few polite words with my uncle, and the little monk outside just now came in again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Zen Master Hebei is invited. Come with me. ”
