Chapter 65: The Sweeping Monk
After everyone's discussion, the next day I went to Xiamen University to take a walk, and by the way, I took a walk on the beach behind Xiamen University. After that, spend 2 days to go to Huandao Road, Zeng Cuo'an, and Nanputuo Temple to have a look, and finally spend 2 days to go to Gulangyu Island to play, and 2 days can just stay on Gulangyu Island for one night. Everyone calculated that they would stay in Xiamen for a total of 8 days, and they would not be in a hurry to play, and this kind of free travel would be much soothing than the rhythm of traveling with a tour group, and people would not be particularly tired. Slowing down and strolling along the beach, lounging on the university playground, and eating snacks that only locals know are much better than getting on the bus, sleeping, getting off the bus, and peeing on the spots in a group tour.
On the second day, Lu Xusheng arranged a route for everyone, first to the Nanputuo Temple next to Xiamen University, and then to Xiamen University.
Nanpuyuan Temple sits in the north and faces south, is built according to the mountain and the sea, the scale is grand, the momentum is solemn, the main building of the central axis is the Tianwang Palace, the Great Male Treasure, the Le Tu Palace, the Great Compassion Palace, the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion; Among them, the Heavenly King Hall is located at the very front of the central axis of the temple, the front hall is in the middle of the front hall to enshrine the Maitreya Buddha who smiles with a smile, there are the four heavenly kings who look around angrily on both sides, and there is Veda Bodhisattva behind the hall to cover the palm and stand according to the pestle, the majesty is abnormal. The palace pavilion rises layer by layer according to the mountain, the level is distinct, and the pitch is corresponding. The corridors on the east and west sides are raised in turn, and the two sides of the three halls are protected to make them a whole
Everyone got up early in the morning, washed up, ate early, and then took the No. 29 bus all the way to the South Putuo Temple.
"Hanhan, do you have any wishes to make when you go to Nanpu Temple?" Lin Weilan turned around and asked Chen Yuehan.
"Well, I haven't thought about it yet. What about you? Xiaolan"
"Me? I've thought about it, but I can't tell you. Hee-hee~" Lin Weilan said with a smile.
"Why can't you tell me?" Chen Yuehan said curiously.
Lin Weilan's words also aroused Lu Xusheng's concern, Lu Xusheng glanced at Lin Weilan and thought, "This girl, I'm thinking about something unseemly in my heart." ”
"It won't work if you say it, if you really can't achieve it, you won't feel so embarrassed and lost~" Lin Weilan also looked at Lu Xusheng and said.
Lin Weilan's peeking at Lu Xusheng's eyes just collided with Lu Xusheng's eyes examining herself, and Lin Weilan quickly looked away with some weakness.
"Lin Weilan, learning this kind of thing is not something that can be prayed for by praying." Lu Xusheng said.
"You~ yes, I can't pray for it, but at least it means that I really want to go to a school with you. Hmph~" Lin Weilan was still full of interest, but when Lu Xusheng said this, she immediately looked like a deflated balloon.
"I'll pray too." Lu Xusheng glanced at Lin Weilan's lost expression and spoke.
"Haha~ It's pretty much the same, don't worry, Xiaosheng, I will definitely be admitted to the school with you. The sincerity of you and me is visible to God, if you don't bless us. Then I will never ~~"
"Shh~" Lu Xusheng suddenly pressed Lin Weilan's lips with his fingers, shook his head at her, and signaled not to say what he hadn't said.
"Don't worry, I'm here. It will definitely work. The Bodhisattva will surely bless you. Lu Xusheng rarely smiled gently at Lin Weilan.
Summers in Xiamen are stuffy, hot and humid, and it is difficult for people who do not live in the south to get used to this heat for a while.
Although the clock had just crossed 8 o'clock, the sun got up earlier than anyone else, and hung high in the sky early, shining on the earth.
Under the scorching sun, everyone was already sweating and suffocating. Both sides of the streets of Xiamen are planted with phoenix wood, the red and gorgeous flowers are in full bloom at the end of June, such beautiful and gorgeous flowers bring more restlessness to people in the middle of summer, I want to find a shady place to walk, but when I see the flowers of this phoenix wood, the heat in my heart is even more vigorous.
Lu Xusheng led the people who were not used to the weather in Xiamen and finally came to the door of Nanputuo Temple.
"Let's go in, we're here." Lu Xusheng said to the people behind him.
Everyone still looked like they were about to collapse, but when they heard Lu Xusheng say it, they all stood up and walked straight into the first threshold.
It was the first time Lin Weilan had seen such a temple, and the cascading temple attic looked very majestic. Everyone walked in such an environment, and even the voice of speech was deliberately lowered.
When you are in such an environment, you can naturally feel the piety from the heart, maybe you have an obsession in your heart, so at this moment there is more awe in your heart. Because I want my prayers to be answered, I naturally have the word piety in my heart.
When everyone knelt in front of the golden Buddha in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, everyone seemed to retreat from their flashiness and restlessness. Everyone bowed down in front of the golden Buddha with great devotion and silently made their wishes in their hearts.
"Buddha, my wish is very small, I don't want to be rich and rich, I just hope that I can be admitted to a university with Lu Xusheng. I hope that he will always have only me in his heart and love me alone. Buddha, my wish is not too big, so please trouble your old man to make it come true. Lin Weilan silently said her wish in her heart.
"Buddha, this girl named Lin Weilan next to me made a wish, please fulfill her once." Lu Xusheng knelt on Lin Weilan's side, his eyes closed, and he also silently recited his prayer in his heart.
"Buddha, I only hope that the person I like will understand my mind, and that he will like me one day. Of course, I'm not in a hurry to wait for this day, I've been waiting for so long, and it doesn't matter if I wait another 1 or 2 years. But can you let me see his reply before I graduate from high school? Chen Yuehan thought in her heart that she hoped that He Xiaoran would be able to take the first step towards herself one day, and then the remaining 100 steps would be good to walk by herself.
"Buddha, in fact, I don't have any wishes, if I really want to make a promise. I hope she can be simply happy for a lifetime, without crying for anyone and not being sad for anyone. He Xiaoran made a wish in his heart, who she was talking about, maybe only he knows.
"Before, my only wish was to form a band, but now I'm greedy, and now I don't just want that." Meng Xichen's eyes were closed, and he quietly half-opened, glanced sideways at Chen Yuehan, who was kneeling beside him, and then made another wish in his heart: "I still have one wish, I hope I can be a really gentle person." ”
"Buddha, I just want that what belongs to me will always belong to me. There will be no departure, no betrayal. This is Fang Yong'er's wish that she thought about on the way here.
When all the people made good wishes and got up to leave the Daxiong Treasure Palace, everyone had a feeling like a spring breeze, and the whole person was in good spirits.
Lin Weilan looked at the flowers and plants in the temple and was very novel, and followed behind everyone, and unconsciously dispersed.
"The Scripture Pavilion?" Lin Weilan looked at the plaque in front of her and read.
"Haha~ Could it be that there are still "Yijin Sutra" and "Rulai Divine Palm" here, and I don't know if there will be a sweeping monk guarding here. Haha~" When Lin Weilan saw these three words, various martial arts cheats popped up in her mind.
Lin Weilan raised her head and looked at the Scripture Pavilion in front of her, looking at it as she walked, ignoring the road ahead of her.
"Ouch~" Lin Weilan didn't look at the road with long eyes, and the result was that she collided with an old monk who was sweeping the fallen leaves with his head down.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sweeper? Master, could it be that you are the master who guards this place, hiding fame and fortune? Lin Weilan looked at the bearded old monk in front of him and said.
"Haha~ Donor, why are you so reckless? Lao Na advised the donor to slow down in everything, see the road ahead before leaving, and not just be obsessed with the heart. Otherwise, it's not good, it's not good. Haha~" The old monk stared at Lin Weilan and said.
"Inside?" Lin Weilan looked at the old monk puzzled.
"Also, if you are obsessed too deeply, you will damage your Dao heart, let it be, you have to be able to afford to let go of everything, do you know what it means to be willing?" The old monk asked Lin Weilan.
"I don't know, I'd like to hear the details," Lin Weilan said.
"The true wisdom of life lies in letting go without reservation. Only by letting go of the past can we live in the present, and only by letting go of obsession can we move forward easily. If you are willing to let go of the past, you will naturally get the future. After speaking, the sweeping monk lowered his head and swept the fallen leaves. (According to Master Nebula)
"A master is a master, a sweeping monk is a sweeping monk, admire and admire" Lin Weilan nodded as if she didn't understand what the old monk said, but Lin Weilan felt that it was because she couldn't understand that she could reflect the power of the old monk, and she admired her face.
"Wait, master, there's nothing on this ground, what are you sweeping?" Lin Weilan looked at the old monk holding a broom, but there was no garbage in the place where the broom was sweeping.
"Can't you see so much fallen leaves and dust, donor?" The sweeping monk asked Lin Weilan.
"I can't see it, I see that the ground is very clean, master, it's so hot outside, why don't you go back to the house to rest and rest, this kind of hard work should be handed over to the young monk in the courtyard." Lin Weilan was afraid that this hot weather would heat up the old monk.
"Donor, seeing is not necessarily believing, Lao Na sees this dust all over the ground in his heart. As for the heat, the mind is calm and naturally cool! Lao Na can still sweep it~" The old monk said.
"Then I won't bother you to sweep the dust, the old man should pay attention to his body. Goodbye~" Lin Weilan smiled and beckoned to the old monk before turning to leave.
"This little girl has a catastrophe when she looks at this face~" The old monk touched his beard and said with an unfathomable look.
"Abbot ~ Abbot ~ You are making the girl's house happy again. It's so hot, go back to the house and rest, the ground is very clean. The disciples cleaned up early in the morning. Not far away, a little monk called.
"Anyway, Lao Na really met a lovely benefactor today. Ay! Do you say that we have "Yijin Sutra", "Rulai Divine Palm" or something in this scripture pavilion? The old monk suddenly asked the little monk on the side curiously.
