Chapter 14 Chapter 72 The Mountain Lets You Stay
The three of them flowed back to the eighth fork in the road just now, and now they walked through the hole in the middle, which was zigzag, like a snake, and walked about two kilometers to see the entrance of the cave, but the hole was on the cliff. The entrance to the cave is completely on a cliff, and there is a deep canyon underneath the cliff. In this narrow valley, the glass plank road suspended in the air makes a gentle call to visitors! Straddling the air of the narrow valley, the two ends of the road stretch into the two mountains, and not far from the road is the elevator that rises up in the narrow valley, and now there is a galvanized pipe burning ladder on the edge of this hole, which can go up and down from the ladder to the top of the mountain, but we did not take this road, it is used by inspection and maintenance workers.
The three of them returned to the fork in the road and began to walk the hole on the left, also zigzag, sometimes still go back, about an hour or so, out of the hole, in front of the hole is a small mountain, this hole is not too far from yesterday's hole hole, the three of them now play the underground cave to finish the line, there are too many to see, a short time can not be finished, not to mention Li Hong and Lotus have to go to work, so they have to return to the fork in the road again.
The right has passed, the front has passed, and now it is time to go to the left hole, and the three of them continue to move towards the left hole. After walking about two hundred meters, there was a very spacious hole in front of it, and the ground was also very flat, but some various stone piers were leveled on the ground, and these stone piers were all the same height, and they were flat and smooth, and there were 1,300 of them on the whole ground, and now they are here for those who come to chant the scriptures.
This is really "the mountains and rivers are exhausted, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village." ”
It's like a fairy tale world appears in front of everyone's eyes, and the people who chant the scriptures back and forth keep singing, and they can't hear what they are singing. On the right side of the cave against the cave wall there are two square tables with a height of one meter and a width of one meter, and the tables are piled with various scriptures, the most obvious ones are:
"Heart Sutra", "Diamond Sutra", "Amitayus Sutra", "Yuanjue Sutra", "Lengyan Sutra", "Sanskrit Net Sutra", "Altar Sutra", "Explanation of Profound Tantra", "Vimala Sutra", "Ranga Sutra" and so on.
There are also Confucius and Confucius disciples who wrote the Confucian scriptures "Thirteen Classics", which are "Book of Changes", "Book of Songs", "Book of Songs", "Zhou Li", "Rites", "Book of Rites", "Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography", "Spring and Autumn Ram Biography", "Spring and Autumn Liang Biography", "Filial Piety Classic", "Analects", "Mencius", "Erya" and so on. Next to it is a scripture pavilion.
On both sides of the table sat two seventy or eighty-year-old Dao Gu, their left hands standing horizontally in front of their chests, their eyes closed, and their right hands constantly knocking on the wooden fish.
There were more than 20 people chanting at the table, and they sat on a stone pier, and in front of them was a small, low long table, and they also stood with their left hand flat on their chest, and their right hand kept knocking on the wooden fish, which cost money.
In these many books:
"Heart Sutra" is the most widely circulated, the most quintessential Tao Te Ching in Buddhism, the most quintessential volume of the scriptures, translated by Tang Xuanzang, a total of one volume, 260 words of Mahayana Buddhism first classic and core, has been translated into many languages around the world has been widely circulated.
The wisdom contained in the Diamond Sutra is profound, and although it is very difficult to understand, as long as you can read and recite the scriptures carefully and understand them with your heart, then your life will suddenly become clear.
The Lengyan Sutra was first translated by Emperor Tianzhu of the Tang Dynasty, and it can be said to be a complete collection of Buddhism with the content of profound truths in all aspects of the manifestation and esoteric phases.
"Zhou Yi" is a book of divination, its outer layer is mysterious, and the inner philosophy is profound and deep.
The Book of Shang is a compilation of ancient historical documents, the main content of which is the proclamation of the king and the record of the conversations of the monarch and the courtiers.
The Book of Songs is a collection of poems from the beginning of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period, which is divided into three parts: "Wind", "Ya" and "Song". "Song" is the dance music and lyrics of the temple sacrifice of the upper class.
The Vimala Sutra is named after the protagonist who is called Vimalaya, and it is also called the Sutra of Incredible Liberation and the Sutra of Vimala by later generations.
The collection of books found in the Confucian wall of the Western Han Dynasty in the Book of Filial Piety is still debated by the author, but it is biased towards the works of the Zengzi school. It is a treatise on filial piety in ancient times.
"Erya" is a dictionary compiled by scholars from the Warring States period to the Western Han Dynasty that can be used to study Confucian classics, and the whole book of "Erya" contains more than 44,300 words and interpretations of the meaning of words, interpreting famous objects, and scholars mostly interpret the scriptures.
The Ranga Sutra is the supreme treasure of the Zen ancestor of Zen Buddhism, the Indian Bodhidharma, and is therefore one of the most important bases for Zen practitioners to practice Nyorai Zen and clear mind.
Walking through this hole and entering the next hole are all slow, these slow and slow bowls are as thick as a large bowl, some as thin as a hair, all sorts, well-known and unknown. Some are straight, some are curved, some are entwined, horizontal and vertical, overlapping, densely packed. Some came out of the ground, some came out of the cave walls, and some fell from the sky screen. Most of these rattans have now been processed. Basically, there is no original taste! A fence was added to prevent people from entering.
The vines were very fresh, as if they had just been washed by heavy rain, and they were green. There are eight or nine hundred meters of this kind of slow teng along the ground slope, and it is a stone platform that walks through these slow tengs, there are two holes here, the former one, the left one, everyone walks straight forward, obliquely goes up seventy or eighty meters, turns right about five meters, turns two meters left and goes forward, at this time are stone stalactites.
These stalactites support the whole scale, some are bucket thick, some are bowl thick, and there are 3 thicker than three buckets, so it looks as if the whole screen is supported by these stone stalactites, and if it weren't for these stone stalactites, the balance might have collapsed long ago. There are more than 900 such stalactites. Everyone through the stone stalactites, came to a piece of more than ten square meters, there is no road in front, only one person can walk through the gap, through more than 30 meters of gaps, right up sixty or seventy meters out of the hole, next to the hole are towering trees, now to this to the top, everyone looks, is a pig's mouth, there is no way to go here, and can not go up, people come out of the pig's mouth, out of the pig's mouth, there is a ticket booth next to the pig's mouth, and sell small things in the commissary, the lotus looks at the time is not early, it is time to go back, So the three of them walked twenty or thirty meters and took the cable car back to the factory! Lotus Says:
"We'll come tomorrow and we'll take the conch hole and rest."
"It's okay, I've wanted to rest for a long time, but my sister is still powerful, and my health is not good. Better than any of us! ”
The next morning, the three of them did the same as before, and then walked to the position of the stone conch.
Three times up to see, a buffalo is the same monolithic stone crawling on the ground, completely embedded with the ground. It looks so realistic. But this stone buffalo is much bigger than the buffalo, the mouth on the head of the cow alone is about two meters, and the two people squatting into the horn still seem to be very empty, two eighty or ninety centimeters of cow ears, as if listening to what is calling, the two curved horns are very clean, so just to form a big circle. The nostrils of the two were the size of a large bowl. Two large bowl-sized eyes are concave and bulging on the head. People have tested its depth with a 12-gauge steel wire, and found that it is full of spirals, very deep, a 120-meter steel wire has not reached the end, and people have taken another one or not to the bottom, but unfortunately the steel wire has no trace of the end. The sound came out of this horn, through the air, and then through the rebound of the cave wall to form a huge crest and trough oscillation, in the air N many times vibrate, to the distance to form the strange sound, two big eyes clearly tell people: the problem is not "me" here.
Everyone has tried it with wire probe before, but there is no result. The two ear piercings are connected to the horn, and the two nostrils above the mouth are also connected to the horn, so it is no wonder that the sound of people when they approach seems to be similar to the cry of a buffalo. But the key is, where does the sound come from? If the sound is formed by the action of air currents, then where does this air flow come from?
The lotus has also been paying attention and paying attention, but has not found any answers so far?
A tail that was two feet long dragged far away, and then rolled back and coiled four times on the back buttocks of the ox's back. What an amazing nature! Obviously, this is not a painting that can be carved artificially, but it is also a beautiful and real painting, but it is also a painting that really appears in front of people. As for what kind of legend there is, no one can say clearly, but this legend is really lost now, and how to excavate this perfect legend will be a long and slow process that is far away.
Tao Wumin jumped up like a child and cheered:
"Stone conch! Stone conch! I never expected to see it in this cave, I had only heard it from old men and books before. But I have seen it here today, and it is so mysterious, and so much more mysterious than what the old man told and what is introduced in the book, and its complexity is simply indescribable. This stone conch is so special, it is held in the mouth of a buffalo. ”
Tao Wumin touched the bull's head and circled around it a few times, and the voice came again, it wasn't that the lotus flower told her in advance, I'm afraid that this time Tao Wumin will scare out seven souls with three souls. After a while, it stopped, and people wanted to unveil the mystery of nature, and it would take some time and energy to unveil it.
There are so many mountains and rivers in the motherland, what is lost in one place will be found in another.
How does this stone conch, which is connected to the ground, make a sound? Where did this qi come from? Because it also needs to be formed by the action of the air current, where does the air flow come from?
That's the key! It's another mystery, which Grandpa Mu didn't discover. And this airflow should also be very large, it is impossible for people to have such a large airflow, everyone can't figure it out, just continue to move forward with this problem! Let's leave this question for the time being, and think about it slowly! I believe that one day people will figure it out.
Tourists come and go to appreciate this natural artifact, and a simple incense burner has been added in front of its prostrate, which has something to do with the Bull Demon King! Everyone came to this stone ox and touched and touched, and touched. So now everything on this end is very smooth.
There are so many tourists that such a large cave is simply intolerant.
Tao Wumin was a little reluctant to leave, the three of them continued to work hard to move forward, walked about twenty meters, and then went down, it was a crack, walked sixty or seventy meters, and it was a very spacious hole, about five meters high, which could accommodate two or three hundred people, and there was a one-meter-wide hole at three meters on the cave wall, and a clear stream as thick as a bucket fell in a small pool on the ground in the cave, and it was facing another statue of the Buddha who was sitting with his hands together and meditating on his knees on the side of the small pool. The water in the pool then flows down the hole into the distance, and people continue to walk along the edge of the water where there is no flooding.
There are still many workers who continue to build it, and they are also widening the path for tourists to walk, and they have also added incense and candle burners to the edge of the waterhole in front of the Buddha. The cave has not been opened for the time being, it is sealed, and the security guard at the entrance of the cave saw the lotus, and Li Hong didn't say anything to let them in. When the three of them walked seven or eight hundred meters, everyone saw that there seemed to be a little light flashing, and a cement road stretched out to the exit, which used to be impossible to get out, but now the workers have chiseled the hole here wide and high. When the three of them arrived at the entrance of the cave, they knew that this place had also become an exit, and a cable car station was also built next to the water flow, and an embedded wall mountain road was built along the cliff from the entrance of the cave, which was pitifully small, and the guardrail of one meter and five heights was picked out, and the width of the road was only sixty or seventy centimeters. What's more, it was so high that a galvanized pipe ladder was suspended at the entrance of the cave at the foot of the hole, and the whole ladder was closed with iron sheets on the periphery of the ladder. Of course, you can also follow this ladder down the mountain. The three of them walked and looked, the whole county was in full view, on the path between the mountain walls, the lotus wanted to sing a song, but for a while it was not very appropriate. At this look, everyone was stunned, the entrance of this cave is on a rock wall in the middle of the mountain, and the water flows down the mountain into the middle and upper reaches of the Furong River at the east gate of the county, and will flow into the distance. You can also see the four bridges of Basho Bridge, Maojiatang Bridge, Jianping Bridge and Yutang across the Furong River.
The county seat under the mountain can also be seen very clearly, in this pool, there are two octagonal pavilions on the high place next to it, eight columns support the whole pavilion, the upturned octagonal one, the long chairs are placed on the edge of the pavilion, it seems that it is not finished, the reason is also very simple, even the paint has not been put on. Three walked to the cable car station, which is also not open, but can be operated. It is only used by the workers when they return from work, and the three of them do not want to trouble the staff and do not want to break the company's regulations. Just return to the front of the order there are two holes did not go, the lotus three returned and began to walk the second hole, this hole can not go up or down, although the ground is not very flat, but finally it is still relatively loose than the narrow up and down the ground is much better, it is still quite wide, but more and more narrow, in the end it is just a gap to the knife, but this gap is very high and very long, people walk sideways to finish this gap It takes half a day, at this moment another spacious hole appeared in front of everyone, On the left side of the cave wall, there is another squatting statue like the whisk statue of the ancestors, and there is a pool of water on the ground, which is still steaming, everyone knows that this is a hot spring, and there is a small stone statue on both sides of the squatting stone statue. Workers are also building it as it is now, and there is a worker who is also adding color to it. So the three of them looked at it and walked around the waterhole again
The lotus they turned around in the cave a few times, looked at it, there was no way out, and then returned to the factory to eat, it was already night again, the lotus washed her face and brushed her teeth and went to bed.
The next day, due to yesterday's fatigue, the lotus flower got up late, she pushed open the window and looked at the employees who were going back and forth downstairs, and the vendors at the factory gate were also busy shouting.
Lotus ate breakfast and walked into the office, Ning Jiachun was cleaning,
A young girl who looked to be twenty-one or twelve years old, was arranging things on her desk, she was tall and well-proportioned, not fat or thin, as if she were tailor-made, and she was also very dexterous in her movements. A shiny and thick hair, pouring down like a waterfall. Her face was round and white, with two curved eyebrows, like thin hooks on a clothesline; Especially those beautiful big eyes, just a stern mouth, as if they can speak, have great lethality.
Lotus sat in front of her office and turned on her computer. After browsing, she remembered that today is Friday, she thought about it slowly, after such a walk, although most of the tourism in this big mountain village has been opened, and a small part is still being built, but she still feels that it is not perfect enough, but she can't find the reason? It seems that I really have to go through the whole thing. There are several questions that have not yet been answered:
First, Grandpa Mu said that there are three dangerous holes, and now he is only looking for one or two, are there any that have not been discovered?
The second is the stone buffalo, where does the sound and air flow from the stone conch come from?
The third is that the cave has not been down so far, what is in the cave? I don't know anything about it so far?
Fourth, what is the progress of land acquisition for thin shipping express delivery?
How is the office building in the five parks progressing? What about shantytown reconstruction? Hurry up and ask tomorrow?
Sixth, the supporting facilities of the mountain tourism industry are not perfect enough, and the east, west, north and south gates can not be fully opened, and the small east gate, small south gate, small west gate, and small north gate have not been completely connected to each other?
We should organize everyone to see all of this. There are those areas that are unreasonable and need to be rectified. After she had sorted out what she was going to talk about at the meeting, she greeted the new young aunt and said:
