There is a mountain in the southern part of my hometown called Suzaku Mountain. There is a monk temple on the mountain, called the Three Treasures Bodhi Temple.

I don't know when this temple was built, but I know that there is a cliff on the northern slope of Suzaku Mountain, and there are some cliff carvings from the Ming Dynasty on it, so it is inferred that the Sanbao Bodhi Temple should have been built at least at that time, and maybe even earlier.

The temple is built on the southern slope of the mountain, sandwiched between two mountains and a ditch, and the temple is located halfway up the mountain. In recent years, due to the development of tourism, this temple, which was not very famous, has gradually begun to flourish. In addition, the government is still developing around Suzaku Mountain year by year, and now it has attracted more and more attention from many people as a scenic spot.

Xiao Jiu'er and I rushed to the temple, and we had to pass through a section of the road along the river along the way, because Suzaku Mountain stood by the river, so the scenery along the way was really beautiful.

But we have something in our hearts now, and in the face of no matter how beautiful the scenery is, there is no trace of appreciation now!

Xiao Jiu'er and I sat silently in the car, only the driver who carried us kept nagging. Say anything, all over the world, at home and abroad, even Gonzo ghosts, foxes, and spirits. Listening to it, I feel a little emotional, this master doesn't host a talk show, it's really too condescending, this mouth, it's impossible to compare!

The driver master was also interested in Xiao Jiu'er, and he kept talking to her, but it can be seen that Xiao Jiu'er has been cold and silent, so he turned the conversation to me.

I asked a lot of questions, and I was really about to go crazy because I was tortured by him, so I responded casually.

"Master, we are in a hurry to go to the temple to find someone, can you hurry up?"

"Oh? Do you go to a monk to do something? I heard that there used to be an ethereal monk, the spirit of Buddhism, very magical! ”

"What? Master, you also know the ethereal monk! Have you met him? Any idea where he is now? Is he still in the temple? Is there anything else you know? Tell me quickly. ”

asked a lot of questions in one breath, but the driver suddenly became dumb.

"You've got too many questions, lad! Which one of you should I answer? ”

"Hehe... I'm sorry! It's that I'm too anxious, so it's good for you to pick the main answer. ”

"Huh...... Young man, I haven't seen that monk, everything is heard, rumors! People like you who came to find the ethereal monk, I have also carried a few, it seems that those people are happy to come and return disappointed, you have to be prepared! ”

When I heard what he said, my mood hit rock bottom again. "So you're also hearsay! Thanks for the reminder though. ”

The driver saw that I was very unmotivated, and suddenly the conversation changed and dropped a bombshell.

"Don't be discouraged, young man, as the saying goes, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and you think there will be unexpected gains this time!"

"Huh? Why? ”

"Because I see that your bones are amazing, you must be a strange person who has not met in a hundred years, as the so-called strange people have adventures, you will definitely find the answer you want to find!"

Oh! You old god, you learned it on the street, right? If you really borrow chickens to lay eggs, why don't you lie to people, isn't that more profitable than driving a taxi?

I wasn't in the mood to take care of him, so I just closed my eyes and thought about something else. In fact, my head is very messy now, and I don't have any clue at all. But when I think of Xiao Jiu'er's scary words, my heart hurts inexplicably, and it gets worse and worse!

Xiao Jiu'er kept silently looking out of the car window, as if she was the one who carpooled with us, and had no interest in the conversation between me and the driver. But from her still somewhat resentful face, I can clearly feel that she is confused and reluctant!

I don't know if she's giving up on me, but if she's really for me, then what the hell should I do? Seeing this beautiful girl who makes me tempted, is it really going to die for me? I don't know if my heart will forgive myself then, but now I really don't want to be separated from Xiao Jiu'er again, not even for a second!

"Maniac!"

She's calling me crazy again! But I didn't object, and now she calls me whatever I want.

"Huh?"

"If I die, will you still think of me often?"

Oh, my God! How do I answer this question? This, I have only seen the bridge in the movie, but when I really faced it, I realized that it was completely different from the movie! I couldn't even speak, and I didn't know what to say!

"Hey... Maybe when you meet other girls in the future, you won't remember that there is a little Jiu'er, man! It's all negative people. ”

"It's not! It's not like that! I won't forget you! Never! I...... It will definitely ...... It won't be like your master's prophecy! You're not going to die for me! ”

"Well...... No matter what Master prophesied, if I really want to die for you, then ...... I do. ”

Oh! What are you talking about, as a man, I've heard that there are men who are willing to die for women, but that's a lie. And to hear that there are women who are willing to die for me as a man, I am really moved! I don't know why, I want to cry very much, but now I don't want to shed a single drop of tears!

I hugged Xiao Jiu'er tightly in my arms, tightly, because I really have nothing to say!

Xiao Jiu'er snuggled in my arms, her body trembling a little, as if she had just been abandoned by others! But I could clearly feel the smile on her lips. I can't see it, but I can't be wrong!

Suzaku Mountain has now been built into a forest park, but because we went up too early, the taxi went straight through the park gate and stopped in front of the temple.

Standing in front of the temple, the sound of the car engine gradually became quieter, but the temple in front of me made me feel smaller and smaller.

Perhaps it is that all the places where the gods and Buddhas live will give mortals a feeling of unattainable! Facing the temple, there is an indescribable depression, but Xiao Jiu'er next to her is like the daughter-in-law who returned to her mother's house in the second year of junior high school, looking relaxed and casual.

Carefully cross the threshold of the temple, because it is so high that if I enter at will, I will have to sacrifice two front teeth.

The temple was quiet, and the air was filled with the scent of vanilla, which was very heavy! It kind of makes me want to sleep, and there are people chanting Buddhist scriptures in my ears, but I can't understand a word.

"Jiu'er! Is there no one here? Why can't anyone see it? Are there fewer monks now? I often see monks on the street! ”

"There are not many monks here, and the recent development of tourism by the government has attracted some monks to place orders. But because there were so few pilgrims and no income in the temple, those monks with bright heads went elsewhere. ”

"Oh... It turns out that the monk is also a good bird and chooses trees to perch! Now that even the monks are so realistic, won't the Buddha blame them? ”

"Didn't the Buddha say that the scriptures should not be passed on lightly? The monks also have to eat and repair the temple. There is no reason to blame anyone, only the monks who sit here will make the temple incense flourish. ”

"So now the monks are like in-demand commodities, right? But there are fewer and fewer monks, right? ”

"Yes! You're right, a true master wouldn't fancy such a small place, and even being a shani in a famous mountain and ancient temple is better than being alone in a temple with no pilgrims. ”

"Hey... The world is hot and cold, and Buddhism needs popularity if it wants to flourish! ”

"It can't be helped!"

"Then why doesn't your master promote the Dharma here?"

"He was originally a Taoist priest, maybe there is only a temple here, so he changed his career to become a monk!"

"Hehe... Don't you know why? ”

"I don't know, I just know that the master is willing to be here because he wants to guard the monsters, and he doesn't seem to be interested in any Buddhism and Taoism!"

"Huh? So why does he guard the youkai? Don't you study Buddhism and Taoism, and rely on modern technology such as pistols and cannons? ”

"Hehe... You really think, why my master, I don't know, I haven't seen it, but his amazing age is real! ”

"Huh? Why are you so sure? ”

"Because I have been with Master for ten years, he is still a teenager, and there is no sign of getting old at all."

"What? Your master won't be able to cultivate the Northern Spiritual Skill, right? You can rejuvenate yourself! The internal force is infinite, did it also teach you some mental secrets or something? ”

"you! I've read too many novels! Master, the most he spends most of his time sleeping, just sitting there quietly and sleeping. ”

"Oh! It turned out to be a thousand-year-old Wang Ba's cultivation into refinement! ”

After saying this, I regretted it. Because I found that Xiao Jiu'er was looking at me with a blue face.

Shut your mouth and don't say anything! Don't be reasonable!

and Xiao Jiu'er came to the meditation room, which was where her master once lived. The house is very clean, it should be cleaned often, and the furnishings should be the same as before, because after Xiao Jiu'er glanced around, there was no strange look.

"Jiu'er! Has your master ever returned? ”

Xiao Jiu'er sighed and shook her head.

"So, what are we going to do?"

Xiao Jiu'er still shook her head and didn't speak. I'm going crazy, can't you say something, do you want me to do something?

Just when I was about to go crazy, Xiao Jiu'er suddenly said, "Let's look for it first, maybe Master left something behind, something or words that I haven't found." ”

"Alas... That's all there is to it. ”

But this meditation room couldn't be simpler, there was almost nothing we could use, and we didn't even find a place to hide things!

I sat down on the bed and sighed. I really can't think of a monk hiding things? Can't even think of where he can hide it?

Xiao Jiu'er sighed when she saw me, and she had no idea, so she could only sit down side by side with me, "Let's think about it again, there must be something we have overlooked." ”

"Huh? Where could it be? Look at this place, except for a broken mat on the bed, there is not even a box or cupboard or anything......"

"Wait! You said mats, why haven't you paid attention to them all along! Let's take a look, there may be unexpected surprises! ”

Hearing Xiao Jiu'er say this, I really can't hit her, can a broken mat hide things? It's a fantasy!

I opened the mat with Xiao Jiu'er, and there was indeed nothing below as I thought.

Xiao Jiu'er sighed unconsciously, "Alas... Is it really just gone? Didn't even leave me a bit? Woo..."

"Jiu'er! Don't cry! If you look at this mat, it looks like there are words on the back. ”

When I heard her crying, I turned my head and suddenly noticed some blurred handwriting on the back of the mat.

"Huh? What did you say? ”

Xiao Jiu'er suddenly became happy, and hurried over to see the mat.

Actually, I'm really not sure if it's handwriting, but I just want to distract her from it.

"The past life and this life are nothing, and the divine bird descends into tears. He was imprisoned at the foot of the Vermilion Bird Peak, and he regretted it before the Sansheng Stone. Who knows thousands of things in the world, advise you not to look back. ”

Xiao Jiu'er muttered intermittently, as if the flowers on the back of the mat were words that only she could read.

"Oh! Are you two from Mars? There are actually these written on it, I'm afraid only Martians can recognize these Martian characters! ”

"These are Sanskrit, which is Buddhist texts, and of course you can't read them."

"Oh! …… Yes? …… Kindness! ”

It's Sanskrit, I really don't understand, what you say is what, it's helpful for our trip!

"Xiao Jiu'er! Can you explain what that means? ”

"Well...... This opening sentence should be about me, just like what Master said before. The middle sentence should say that this monster is sealed under the Vermilion Bird Peak.,I don't know what it means.。 The last sentence should refer to you, meaning to advise you not to turn back. ”

"Wouldn't it? How did it get to my head? ”

"Master said that I have a close relationship with you, and he left these words, of course, it is related to you."

All right! I'll admit that your guess has some truth, but it's just your guess, right? Can you come up with strong evidence? Otherwise, I don't want to admit that it has something to do with me, maybe it's just wishful thinking, right?

Of course, these words in my heart can't be told directly to Xiao Jiu'er, I can only ask her, "Then, what should we do next?" ”

"Let's go up the mountain and go to Suzaku Peak to have a look."

Xiao Jiu'er said categorically, like a martyr who wants to be generous and righteous!
