Chapter 310 Water Moon Temple
Seeing that the teacher seemed to have doubts about the origin of Zhongli Yiyi, Shen Ruchao also knew that the teacher was as cunning as a fox, and he was very suspicious, even if he was about himself, he was always suspicious, and he had to beat himself with puns from time to time, so he didn't care about the doubts he showed, and after thinking about it, he also hid the section where Uncle Li had just let him identify the portraits of those warlocks, so as not to cause any more troubles from his teacher.
The mysterious old man glanced at Shen Ruchao a few times, knowing that he had always been in awe of Li Shiqi, many things Li Shiqi didn't say, and Shen Ruchao didn't dare to ask, so he didn't ask again, after instructing Shen Ruchao to take Linglong Yan on time and insist on meditating, he went into it along the secret door, and behind him, the secret door closed silently, and a seamless wall stood there again, covering all the secrets in the square inch world made of sand, mud, bricks and stones.
Shen Ruchao stared blankly at the wall where the old man had disappeared, and after half a sound, he fell back on his back, lying heavily on the bed, full of joy, and completely collapsed.
Besides, Uncle Li led Yang Yi, Wei Ergou, Liu Ruoxue and Zhong Li Yiyi, and the group walked leisurely towards the southwest outside the city.
Among the four people, Li Shu'er has always been a habit of pretending to be forced whenever there is a person, although there are scattered pedestrians along the way, but Li Shu'er habitually puts on a sanctimonious standard expression, along the way is a big sleeve, fairy pull a pull.
As for that Wei Ergou, he has always been the master who doesn't take anything seriously, although they are surrounded by murderous intentions at the moment, as long as Liu Ruoxue is by his side, he is willing to go wherever he goes, so he is relaxed and comfortable, but it is really like going on an outing. And although Liu Ruoxue has a pungent temperament, she is kind and simple by nature, and she has been living in a tense atmosphere every day for a while, she can come out for a hike today, and she is with her favorite second dog brother, and her heart is naturally like a spring breeze, and Wei Ergou is whispering, just like a pair of yellow warblers who whisper shallowly, and they can be regarded as Mu Sha others.
"Eh, Sister Yiyi, do you see, the two in front of you are really a pair of well-known Gou men and women, hehe" Seeing that only Zhongli Yiyi was sullen along the way, Yang Yi approached her, and looked at Nong Nong's whispering Yang Yi and Wei Ergou teased, hoping to make her laugh.
That Zhongli Yiyi listened to Yang Yi's words, glanced at Wei Ergou and Liu Ruoxue indifferently, and said indifferently: "People are affectionate, what does it matter to you, boring!" ”
After speaking, Zhongli Yiyi walked forward by himself, leaving only Yang Yi, who was in the wrong place, staring at Zhongli Yiyi's tall back in a daze, and after a while, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, and walked up to chase after Uncle Li and them, who had already walked away.
Now is a troubled time, the mule carts that can be seen everywhere in Cangzhou City are now as rare as the morning star, and after walking for a long time, Rao is Yang Yi and Wei Ergou Neidan have reached a certain level of cultivation, and their foreheads have been slightly sweaty, but Liu Ruoxue and Zhongli Yiyi are still white cheeks and even breath, not like Yang Yi and Wei Ergou's embarrassment.
For Yang Yi and Wei Ergou's predicament, Li Shu'er pretended to turn a blind eye, and did not stop at his feet, and after walking for a while, he saw an ox cart driving far away on the snow in front of him, and two green oxen drove a wooden cart with a green cloth shed, pressing the soft white snow on the ground, babbling over.
The ox cart stopped in front of Uncle Li, the curtain of the green cloth carport was lifted, and a young monk wearing a seven-clothed monk's uniform made of seven pieces of red and yellow cloth and a bodhisattva scarf on his head jumped out of the ox cart, put his hands together, and saluted Uncle Li: "Elder Jianan ordered the little monk to come to welcome the old immortal's dharma, just because the road is slippery and difficult, you have to eat, and the old immortal should not be condemned!" ”
Seeing that the monk was humble in his words and looked frightened, Uncle Li also returned the salute to his chief, and then asked with some confusion: "Poor Dao did not contact Master Jianan beforehand, how could he know that we were coming to Guibaosha?" ”
"When I did my morning homework today, there was a magpie hovering around the branches, and Elder Jianan knew that there was a distinguished guest coming to the door, so he sent the little monk out of the temple to greet him, and he really met the old fairy, but didn't he respond to the old saying that the magpie climbed the branch and blessed the high, hehe" The monk was very good at talking, and when he said it, he complimented Uncle Li with a smile on his face, which was very useful.
"I haven't seen you for many days, the old monk of Jianan is about to become a refinement, right, accompany you to entertain the poor Dao?" Uncle Li was embarrassed in front of the apprentices, and his heart was extremely sour, but he pretended to look at the monk angrily, and pretended to say: "Poor Dao has always been poor and happy, and what I don't like the most is this kind of pomp, don't do it next time, hehe"
Greetings on the lips, but Li Shu'er was the first to crawl into the car, and Yang Yi and Wei Ergou on the side couldn't help but collapse, but the monk seemed to be very familiar with Li Shu'er, standing beside him, and after watching the five people get into the car, he drove Yu Yu in the direction where the ox cart came.
It's also strange to say, when walking on foot just now, Yang Yi and Wei Ergou felt that the road was far away, and there was always a feeling of taking one step and three steps back, but sitting in the ox cart, the speed of the green ox was not fast, but looking at the snow covered with snow in the winter outside the car window, there were occasionally birds passing by, and there were black chinchillas flashing happily on the snow from time to time, and there was really a bit of a feeling of playing in the wild and enjoying the scenery.
The feet were relaxed, and the mood was naturally happy, and before they knew it, Uncle Li and they saw the ox cart driving up a stone path paved with bluestone slabs.
The wooden wheels of the ox carts pressed against the stone slabs, and on both sides of the path, there were lower-ranking monks dressed in yellow clothes sweeping the snow on the path.
After passing through those monks, the ox cart slowly stopped, Li Shu'er five people got off the car, and met a towering hard mountain building, the building mountain gate hung high on the door plaque, there are three Tang Li big character mountain gates: Shuiyue Temple, on both sides of the Zhuse Temple gate, there are nearly five or six zhang high wooden lattice, the right union is not centrifugal for the thought, to read but no thought, no thought and thought, it is necessary to be counted as a piece. The left link is: Buddha and Buddha are the same way, knowing that Buddha is not Buddha, not Buddha is also Buddha, that is, this is sitting in ten directions. Only then did I know that this is the mountain gate (front hall) of Shuiyue Temple.
Entering the mountain gate, I saw the two sides of the front hall with clay sculpture heads against the roof, the body of the burly, the horizontal eyebrows and angry eyes, the two generals of the hum ha, about two zhang high, very majestic. Standing in the mountain gate of the mountain breeze, looking around, it can be clearly seen that the building complex of the Water Moon Temple is divided into three courtyards: the second hall, the main hall and the apse, and there are east and west matching halls. There are also two cross-courtyards in the east and west, covering a wide area and majestic.
Passing through the mountain gate, Li Shu'er and his entourage entered the second hall, among which they saw two big Buddhas that were opposite to each other and molded before and after, one was the Maitreya Buddha who "has a big belly and can tolerate the intolerable things in the world, and often smiles with a kind face, and laughs at the ridiculous people in the world", and then there is Wei Tuo who wears armor and holds a purple gold demon pestle (that is, Yang Jian, the protector god and the Erlang God in the Heavenly Palace. There are four heavenly kings on both sides, sitting on the elephant is about one zhang and five feet high, some are subdued tigers, some play snakes, some play swords, some play pipa, it can be described as majestic and majestic, and the momentum is compelling.
Passing through the hall, Uncle Li and they went straight to the Daxiong Treasure Hall. Standing in the cold and biting hall of the Daxiong Treasure, Yang Yi and Wei Ergou looked around and found that this hall was more than ten zhang high, and when they climbed seven steps, they could see that there was a thousand catties of tripod about five zhang high in the middle of the platform in front of the hall. There are three big Buddhas with red gold plated body in the hall, respectively, the sitting elephant of Guanyin of the South China Sea, the West Heaven Rulai, Shakyamuni, about one zhang six feet high, the three offering tables in front of them have incense burners, wax thousands, Buddha and the like, there are eighteen Arhats such as descending dragon, Fuhu, long eyebrows, long arms, drunk, sleeping and so on both sides of the main hall, such as life-size, lifelike.
On the three walls of the east, west and north, there are three-dimensional suspended clay sculptures and murals, all of which are hand-painted, and their content is to reflect the process of the Buddha of the West Heaven, from birth, growth and monkhood, and leading hundreds of disciples to pass on the scriptures. But seeing the misty clouds, the island fairy mountain, the ancient cave of the strange peak, the flowing clouds and waterfalls, it is like a mythical fairyland. On the east and west sides, there are 24 filial piety folk tales such as Xiangling Wenxi, Wang Xiang lying fish, and clove cutting meat. And equipped with a variety of decorative patterns such as floral feathers, landscape figures, etc., it can be described as a wonderful hand, ingenious, exquisite, breathtaking.
Yang Yi, Wei Ergou, Liu Ruoxue, Zhongli Yiyi don't walk to see, after the Daxiong Treasure Palace, you will arrive at the apse, there is a delicate bronze statue of a thousand hands and a thousand eyes Buddha, the shape is peculiar, and the exquisite art is exquisite. Under the statue of Buddha, an old monk in a robe has his back to Li Shu'er, sitting on the yellow puff mat, is reciting Buddhist scriptures, the withered right hand is knocking on the copper squirt again and again, its sound is melodious, in the huge inner hall is the echo is lingering, endless, making people's hearts suddenly give birth to a trace of sadness.
Seeing that the old monk was chanting as if he had forgotten himself, Li Shu'er used a gesture to stop the monk who was about to tell the old monk, and stood behind, silently looking at the old monk chanting.
The voice of the old monk chanting was subdued, listening to the chanting sound that seemed to be an old man in time telling about the yellowing of the old things, Yang Yi, Wei Ergou, Liu Ruoxue and Zhongli Yiyi were like listening to an old song that evoked infinite memories of the past, it was a tidal wave in the heart, and the mottled memories hidden in the softest part of the heart came to my heart together, and my heart was full of joy and sorrow, mixed tastes, and my eyes seemed to be full of frost and dew in early autumn, cold and poignant.
Half a sound, the old monk's voice gradually came to an end, the old monk gathered his monk's clothes, got up and stood up, turned around to Li Shu'er and saluted, and said slowly: "Brother Lao Dao has been waiting for a long time, sin, sin ......"
If the old monk didn't chant the scriptures, his voice was as soft as a southerner, and in an instant, Yang Yi, Wei Ergou, Liu Ruoxue and Zhongli Yiyi, who were deep in memories, returned to reality, and the four of them looked at the old monk like a dream, their eyes were both surprised and happy, worried and afraid, and they were different.
"Brother Mengdao came to the temple, the old man was not polite, and presented a copy of the Myoho-renge-kyo, so that the brothers and sisters could calm down, and they also knew that the clothes were wet and the apricot blossoms were raining, and the face was not cold and the willow wind was in a state of mind, Amitabha" The old monk looked at Uncle Li and said with a smile.
