Chapter 10 Qixia Buddha Light

Early the next morning, when Li Bing was washing, his mobile phone rang.

When Li Binggang walked out of the residence, he heard someone on the side of the road calling him, but he saw Zhao Wan'er wearing a pair of sunglasses and leaning against the car door next to a white sports car to greet him.

Li Bing embarrassedly stuffed the bicycle key into his trouser pocket, and after getting into the car, Zhao Wan'er immediately started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove towards the northeast of Nanjing.

When passing through a small alley, Zhao Wan'er saw the steaming heat from the breakfast stall on the side of the road, and couldn't help but have a big appetite. After getting out of the car and having breakfast with Li Bing, I came to the crescent moon lake not long after.

Li Bing had to be patient, accompanied the future boss to browse the Crescent Lake, and then came to Qixia Mountain.

In front of the "Rainbow Mirror" monument by the Spiegel Lake, Zhao Wan'er asked Li Bing to help her take a few photos, and the two entered the gate of the Qixia Ancient Temple after a while.

The two walked around Qixia Temple for a while, and at the reception of the temple, Zhao Wan'er said that she had believed in Buddhism since she was a child, wrote a thousand yuan, and said to the reception monk that she wanted to spend one night in the temple at night, and asked for two rooms.

As the two of them stepped out of the monastery gate, they met a monk at a corner, and the two bowed their heads and greeted the monk. The monk was busy chanting the Buddha's name and returning the salute, and when he looked up and caught a glimpse of Li Bing's face, he couldn't help but let out a "ah".

Li Bing didn't care, and left in a hurry with Zhao Wan'er and came to the Thousand Buddha Rock at the southwest foot of Fengxiang Peak.

Legend has it that during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the founder of Qixia Temple, Seng Shao, once dreamed that there was a Buddha light on the west rock wall, so he decided to chisel a Buddha statue here. After the various dynasties and generations of excavation and have more than 700 Buddha statues, the distant view is like the peak house pigeon loft, known as the thousand Buddha cliff.

Among them, there is a small Buddha shrine, a total of 5 Buddha statues, the two groups of flying heavens on the top of the cave are orange, the lines are clearly recognizable, and the flame above the head of the Buddha statue in the middle is faintly visible. Although there are only two pairs of flying heavens, this is the easternmost "Dunhuang ruins" found in China. After media reports and heated discussions among experts, it was known as "East Dunhuang" and "East Flying Sky", and became a tourist hotspot.

Li Bing took a closer look with a strong interest, and took Zhao Wan'er to other Buddhist shrines to have a look, he hoped to discover some secrets that were not known to the world, so as to become famous in one fell swoop.

In a Buddhist shrine that was also small but a little deep at the entrance of the cave, Li Bing saw that the cave was dark and turned on the flashlight. I saw that the Buddha statue in the cave was dignified and peaceful, and the eyes of the Buddha statue were half-open and half-closed, as if they were paying attention to the people who came in to worship him. Zhao Wan'er worshipped in front of the Buddha statue reverently, Li Bing stared at the Buddha statue, and always felt that this Buddha statue seemed to have aura, not just a mud fetus.

Suddenly, a strange phenomenon occurred, Li Bing seemed to see a glimmer of light between the Buddha's eyebrows, and he rubbed his eyes in disbelief. That's right, it's a small spot of light, and it seems to be slowly getting brighter and bigger.

Li Bing saw this scene in this dark cave, only to feel that his scalp was numb, and he hurriedly pulled up Zhao Wan'er, who was still kneeling and worshipping, and asked her to see this strange scene, he wondered if he was hallucinating.

Zhao Wan'er looked up and saw this scene as well, and hugged Li Bing in fright.

The two stumbled out of the hole, and outside the hole, the sun had not yet sunset, and the sun was shining, and there was nothing unusual about it. Li Bing stabilized his emotions for a while, thinking that there was really a supernatural phenomenon in this world, although he was afraid, he didn't want to miss this amazing discovery, so he decided to return to the cave to find out.

Zhao Wan'er also thought the same way, holding Li Bing's hand tightly, although her palms were full of cold sweat, she was also extremely curious, and decided to follow Li Bing into the cave again, not to mention that she had been comforting herself that this was a Buddha statue, not some demons and monsters.

After the two returned to the cave, they saw that everything was the same, the cave was still dark, and there was nothing abnormal on the face of the Buddha statue. Even if it is an illusion, how can two people have the same hallucination at the same time?

Carefully inspected the situation around the cave, except for this Buddha statue, there is nothing else, and the entrance of the cave is very deep, it is impossible for the light from the outside to shine into the cave, there is nothing on the ground, and there is no reflected light source when looking out of the cave.

After more than ten minutes, although the two were no longer afraid, they were also quite disappointed. Just as he was about to leave, Li Bing's heart suddenly moved, and he said to Zhao Wan'er: "Wan'er, you can try to worship the Buddha statue again." ”

When Zhao Wan'er heard Li Bing say this, she completely lost the appearance of a commanding rich lady when she first saw Li Bing, and she obediently folded her hands and bowed down in front of the Buddha statue reverently.

A miracle happened again, and a faint spot of light appeared in the Buddha's eyebrows again, and Li Bing stared at the spot intently. Zhao Wan'er had already stood up at this time, looking at the scene in front of her, her eyes showed a frightened look, hiding behind Li Bing, holding Li Bing tightly and staring at the face of the Buddha statue without blinking.

I saw that the light class slowly became bigger and brighter, and the originally gloomy cave was already a soft light at this time, and the eyes of the Buddha statue seemed to be more agile, Li Bing only felt that his heart was no longer so afraid, but his body was filled with a warm and indescribable feeling.

At this time, Li Bing began to silently recite the "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra" that he had just recited a few days ago, and seemed to have an inexplicable communication with the Buddha statue.

After the spot of light became very bright, the surrounding light slowly dimmed, and Zhao Wan'er was surprised to find that the spot of light seemed to form a beam of light, which suddenly shot towards Li Bing's forehead, and suddenly disappeared, and the cave suddenly returned to the darkness when she first came in.

Li Bing was still standing still, Zhao Wan'er pulled Li Bing in fear, Li Bing reacted at this time, and Zhao Wan'er turned around and left the cave.

The two of them stood at the entrance of the cave for a long time, and they were silent. At this time, the sun had sunk in the west, the sky had darkened, and the chill of late autumn had also wrapped the bodies of the two.

"Let's go back", Li Bing said softly, took Zhao Wan'er's hand, and walked towards Qixia Temple.

On the way, feeling Zhao Wan'er's hand trembling, Li Bing broke the silence and asked casually: "Wan'er, didn't you say that you didn't believe that there were ghosts and gods in this world before you asked the hexagram and asked for the pen immortal?" Why do you write in Qixia Temple today and worship Buddha in the Buddha cave? ”

Zhao Wan'er replied in a trembling voice: "I have believed in Buddhism since I was a child, but I only regard Buddha as a philosophical thought, and I have never believed that there are really ghosts and gods in this world. Every time I go to a place and come across a temple, I will go in and worship the Buddha. It's just that I didn't expect that there have been too many strange things in the past few days, Brother Li, do you say that there are really ghosts and gods in this world? ”

Li Bing smiled: "Maybe there is, but there are really ghosts and gods, and people with good hearts will not be invaded by ghosts, so don't be afraid." ”

The two returned to Qixia Temple, and a small novice saw the two people who had booked a stay at the retreat in the morning, and after saluting, they took the two to the dormitory used to entertain pilgrims.

Since the monks have one meal a day, they do not eat at noon. Although the two of them were hungry, they didn't want to make a mistake in this solemn ancient temple.

Since it was still early, there was silence in the temple, and the two chatted for a while, and when they couldn't stand the hunger, they made an appointment to go out and wander around the temple.

Outside a monk's room, through the window glass, Li Bing saw the monk who greeted him in the morning with a look of surprise on his face. I saw that the monk was reading the scriptures under the lamp, and there was a stick of incense burning on the table.

Li Bing hesitated for a moment and knocked on the door of the monk's room.

In the monk's room, the monk stared at Li Bing's face strangely for a while, without saying a word.

Li Bing couldn't bear it anymore and asked very politely, "May I ask the Master Fa Number, why did you look at me like this when you saw me in the morning?" ”

The monk smiled slightly: "Amitabha, the little monk's Dharma name is empty." When I saw the donor in the morning, I felt that the donor's seal hall was black, as if it was entangled in something unclean. It's just strange that now the donor is full and divine, and the little monk doesn't know what's going on, so he dares to ask the donor what he has encountered today? ”

When Li Bing heard Kong Ming say this, he couldn't close his mouth in surprise, and told him about his adventure in a cave in the Thousand Buddha Rock in the afternoon.

Kong Ming listened and muttered for a long time: "There are such strange things in the world, I became a monk at the age of 5, although I chant and worship the Buddha every day, I have not encountered any strange things. It seems that the donor has a fate with my Buddha, so that there can be such a creation, the Buddha's light appears, and the black gas of the donor's seal hall is completely eliminated. I just don't know where the black gas between the donor's eyebrows comes from in the morning, so please pay attention to the donor himself. The little monk respectfully advised: ghosts and gods, you can not believe in them, but you must not be disrespectful. Wonderful! ”

"It's not early, the little monk is about to start meditating and purifying his heart, please go back to the two donors!" Kong Ming then closed his eyes and began to recite the Buddha's name.

Li Bing and Zhao Wan'er said goodbye, covered the monk's room, and went back to their own squatter room.
