Crossing the tribulation, in fact, is surviving the catastrophe. So what is a catastrophe?

Heavenly calamity is the term for Taoism, the indigenous religion of China, and a heavenly calamity is a calamity (also referring to calamity and difficulty) when a person does something contrary to the principles of heaven, God will punish him or give him a disaster. Just as a cultivator goes against the sky, trying in vain to cultivate a true immortal with a mortal body, the heavens will send down heavenly tribulations. The spring thunder shook the sky, and the thunder was pregnant with vitality, and the thunder was hailed as a symbol of hope.

According to Taoism, the process of becoming an immortal is itself a process of going against the sky. Since it is against the sky, then God will block the cultivators who go against the sky, and this calamity generally refers to the heavenly thunder.

Those who can survive a lightning strike are even small. Legend has it that there are many beasts and few people, probably because people are the highest form of living beings.

"Dao Chief, you said that the nine-tailed black fox is going to cross the tribulation, why did she cross the tribulation?"

The woodcutter said with a slight smile: "Some people cross the tribulation for the sake of cultivating immortals, and there are Yin gods who cross the tribulation for the sake of becoming yang gods. And it's really the first time I've seen a nine-tailed demon fox crossing a catastrophe for adults. If you ask me why she wants to go through the catastrophe, I think it's probably because she wants to be an ordinary person. ”

Adults? I'm getting a little confused now. If what the woodcutter said was Ling'er, then why did Ling'er have to be obsessed with being an adult?

"Dao Chief, do you know where that Nine-Tailed Demon Fox is now, and how can I find her?"

Hearing this, the woodcutter sighed lightly and said, "I only have a one-sided relationship with that nine-tailed demon fox, she was originally cultivating on Mount Emei. But I haven't seen her for a long time, and I'm probably not on Mount Emei for a long time. ”

When I heard this, the hope that had just risen suddenly fell to the bottom. However, I learned the news that Ling'er was about to cross the catastrophe, which is also a big discovery. We drank a few more cups of tea and then stood up.

"Daoist, thank you for your information. Since the nine-tailed demon fox is not on Mount Emei, I don't think there is any need for us to stay here. Retired first. With that, we were leaving.

Seeing this, the woodcutter nodded lightly and said, "It's a pity that I couldn't help you." Oh, by the way! A few days ago, the Taoist friends of the Laoshan faction have already come, and I don't know if you know each other. Ask them, and maybe you'll get something you want to know. ”

What is the Laoshan faction doing with Ling'er? Could it be ...... Last time, Zhang Tianshi of the Laoshan faction started to beat Coco back to its original form, and this time, they set their eyes on Ling'er again, it seems that I must find Ling'er first, otherwise Ling'er may be in danger.

Thinking of this, I thanked me again, and then left the Taoist temple with the little Taoist priest and the bearded man.

I took out my phone and made a call to Want Want, and I didn't know what they found there. Because it was in the mountains, the mobile phone signal was very bad.

I called several times and finally got through, but the quality of the call was very poor, and many of them were not audible clearly. I can't do it, I just text. Wangwang told me that he was in Baoguo Temple and asked me to go to Yishu, saying that he had made some discoveries.

I looked at the text message and immediately left without saying a word. Baoguo Temple, is the first temple of Mount Emei, but also the gateway to the mountain, is to visit Mount Emei.

We are now halfway up the mountain, so we can only go down. After walking for nearly an hour, I finally saw a temple surrounded by red walls and shining with gold. We quickened our pace and soon came to the gate of the monastery. When you look up, it's Baoguo Temple!

Here the temple is surrounded by Nan trees, the red wall surrounds, the great hall is sublime, the gold is brilliant, the cigarette smoke is curling, and the chime sound is frequent. This temple sits west to east, facing the rising sun, sending the sunset in the evening. There is a pair of stone lions carved in the Ming Dynasty in front of the mountain gate, the shape is vivid, mighty and majestic, just like the left and right guards, guarding this famous mountain treasure temple.

At this moment, Wangwang is standing at the door, and it seems that he has come to pick us up.

"Big brother, hurry up, I'll take you to meet a master here. He knew a little bit about Sister Ling'er. ”

When I heard this, I was overjoyed and hurried to follow. We walked along the bluestone road and soon entered a corner of the temple, which was supposed to be a fasting room, and on weekdays, the monks in the temple lived here.

When we walked in, we immediately saw a great monk sitting in front of a Buddha statue meditating. The big man, Apple, and the little henchman meditated beside him.

Wangwang motioned for us not to speak yet, and he slowly stepped forward himself, and then called softly, "Master, my brother is here." ”

When the great monk heard this, he immediately stood up, and then smiled at us and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the poor monk is polite. ”

This great monk is about fifty years old, with a fat head and big ears, and when he smiles, his eyes narrowed into a line.

With such polite words, I hurriedly folded my hands and said, "Master, the juniors are polite." ”

The great monk smiled, then stretched out his hand to let us into the next room.

After everyone sat down inside, the great monk spoke: "I have already heard Senior Brother Wangwang talk about you, you are here for the nine-tailed demon fox, right?"

I nodded heavily and said, "That's right, but we have met a Taoist master, and he said that the nine-tailed demon fox is no longer on Mount Emei." Master, do you know anything else?"

The great monk smiled and said: "The Taoist chief you are talking about should be the Taoist of cloth clothes, although this person is dressed as a woodcutter on weekdays, but he is a master on my Emei Mountain." Since he said that the nine-tailed demon fox is not on the mountain, then she should not be on the mountain. I don't know as much as he does. But since you're here, I can't let you come in vain. I've got a tip here, so I'll give it to you. ”

This great monk is so mysterious, he must know that this is not the case. But I knew very well in my heart that since he had told him to give advice, he would not tell him anything else. The great monk walked to the bedside, took out a red cloth bag from under the pillow, and handed it to me.

After I took it, I was about to open it, but unexpectedly, the great monk said: "It's better to wait until you go down the mountain, and then look at it!"

I listened to this, gave a soft sigh, and put it in my pocket. After bidding farewell to the great monk, we immediately walked down the mountain.

As he walked, the big man suddenly said, "Big brother, that master just now is so powerful, his Buddha nature is very high, and he is not weaker than the living Buddha I have seen." ”

When I heard this, I smiled slightly: "There are countless capable people in the world, how many people have you just met?"

We went all the way down and soon came to the bottom of the mountain. I took out the bag according to my words, and found that there was a note inside, which read: "The upper face is Emei, and the lower face is Lingyun!"

I thought for a while, then handed the note to Want Want, who took it and looked at it, and then smiled on his face.

"Big brother, this is towards Emei and Lingyun at the bottom. It's actually the Leshan Giant Buddha. I think this master meant to tell us and rush to the location of the Leshan Giant Buddha. ”

When I heard this, my heart was overjoyed. In this way, that Ling'er should be in the place of the Leshan Giant Buddha. Because we are now at the foot of Mount Emei, it is not very far from the Leshan Giant Buddha. Although it was already dusk, I was not half hungry, and if I didn't find Ling'er, even if it was the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, I wouldn't be able to eat them.

Speaking of this Leshan Giant Buddha, it is also known as Lingyun Giant Buddha, located in Leshan City, Sichuan Province, on the east bank of the South Min River Lingyun Temple, near the confluence of the Dadu River, Tsing Yi River and Min River.

The big Buddha is the Maitreya Buddha sitting statue, the head is with the mountain, the feet step on the river, the hands touch the knees, the big Buddha posture is symmetrical, the posture is solemn, and the mountain is chiseled into the river. Some people say that the Leshan Giant Buddha is very spiritual, and there are several apparitions. As for the truth or falsehood, perhaps no one can tell.

Although I don't know why Ling'er chose the location of the catastrophe around the Big Buddha, I guess that maybe it was to use the Buddha's light to make it easier for herself.

After driving for less than an hour, we came to the side of the Leshan Giant Buddha. Even though it's approaching night, you can still see a lot of tourists rushing to see it.

After we got off the bus, we bought a few tickets and joined the group of tourists. This is the first time I have seen the Leshan Giant Buddha, it is really like the cloud in the book, the Buddha is the mountain, the mountain is the Buddha!

All of us worshipped in front of the Buddha for a while, and then rushed to the mountain from a nearby forest. Originally, the sky was full of stars, but after less than half an hour, the clouds reached the top. When the tourists saw this, they all left.

We came here to look for Ling'er, and even if it was a heavy rain, it was difficult to stop our steps.

After a lot of difficulty, we finally came to the mountain. But at this moment, the surroundings have been pitch black to the point where you can't see your fingers.

Looking up at the sky, the black clouds changed shapes. I don't know if it was because I was dazzled, or what, but I vaguely saw a few golden things shuttling through the clouds.

"Could that be the real dragon?" I said to myself.

At this moment, not far from us, the voices of several men were suddenly heard.

"You said that the head of the house is true, let us catch the demon from afar. It's all dark like this, if you stumble and fall down the mountain, won't you die in vain?"

"Yes, did you say that the head of the sect had something to do with the nine-tailed demon fox? I heard that they killed a nine-tailed demon fox last year. People cultivate well, and they don't harm anyone, so why do we have to find someone to be unlucky?"

"Okay, you two stop talking! If we don't do anything, then what kind of Tao do we cultivate? I don't think it's right, if it's not good, the demon fox will survive tonight. If it survives the thunder, I'm afraid it will take a long time to recover, and then we will flock to it, and Ding Ke will get rid of it. But if it can't survive the thunderstorm, then we will save trouble. ”

"It's still Senior Brother Mingjian, let's hurry up and find it. Otherwise, let it escape, and you'll be in trouble. As the words drifted away, I could guess that they were the disciples of the Laoshan Sect.

Since they are also looking for Ling'er, they simply follow behind them, I will give them a praying mantis fluttering cicada today, and the yellow finch is behind!

"Master Zhang, when I save Ling'er, it will be when I seek revenge on you!"
