Chapter 566: Sky Lantern

"I read the diary left by my grandfather, which records that around the Song Dynasty, Futu Temple began to have the custom of putting Kong Ming lanterns to pray for the people of Yun County. I don't know if it really works, in short, since the Song Dynasty, the development of Yun County has been quite smooth, and it has not suffered a particularly big impact, so this custom has been passed down. ”

"In modern times, many places have begun to ban the burning of Kong Ming lanterns, one is because they feel that this custom is feudal and superstitious, which is the dregs of the old society and should not be promoted, and the other is that considering that some people have set off Kong Ming lanterns to cause mountain fires, so many people have gradually never seen Kong Ming lanterns, but"

The corners of Song Tingchuan's mouth hooked

"Here's an exception."

"Hmm"

"The geographical location of the Futu Temple itself is at the top of the mountain, after the Kong Ming lantern is set off, it will only float to the sky higher than the mountain, and when it falls, the candle flame inside has naturally been extinguished, don't worry about the problem of mountain fires, as for the feudal superstition, this thing has never been eliminated, otherwise the Qingming Festival will also worship the ancestors to do what the belief is, if you don't believe it, there is nothing, just like you just said, Futu is free in the hearts of the people."

What's more, the Futu Temple has existed like a retreat for so many years, and the authorities are probably guilty of this place, so they turn a blind eye to Kong Ming Lantern.

As he spoke, Song Tingchuan pulled the person to a monk in the corner of the rooftop and said to Su Nan

"Take your pick."

The old monk looked at a few people and smiled kindly

"The donor can choose by himself, there is pen and ink here, write what he wishes after choosing, and the sky lantern will inform the Buddha, Amitabha."

Zhou Qian quietly leaned over to Cheng Siyu and whispered in his ear

"The old monk here is quite good at talking, he only said that he would tell the Buddha your wishes, and as for whether the Buddha helped you realize it, he didn't say a word."

It was said to be a whisper, but the position of several people was so close that it was impossible for the old monk not to hear it.

The smile on the old monk's face froze."

Cheng Siyu sneered, and Song Tingchuan also looked at Zhou Qian, smiling rather than smiling

"Whether it can help you achieve it or not, depending on the mood of the Buddha, the master is not the Buddha, how can he vouch for you"

Calling the master who rose from an old monk to a master all at once""

Why are these little children so ghostly?

Su Nan held his forehead, "Okay, everyone is not really here for the purpose of realizing their wishes, Siyu, you choose first." ”

As a Tibetan girl, Cheng Siyu is naturally most interested in these blind spots of knowledge that she has never touched before.

Cheng Siyu really began to pick up Kong Minglan carefully.

The Kong Ming lantern pattern here is particularly beautiful, and Cheng Siyu was a little dazzled for a while.

"Master, how can this Kong Ming lantern be sold?"

The master said with a smile: "The Kong Ming lantern here is made by the monks in the courtyard, and there is no charge. ”

At this time, even Su Nan was a little surprised, and there was no charge

Song Tingchuan was more calm

"The purpose of the sky lantern is to pray for wishes, and charging for it will make these wishes smell a little more coppery, and the Buddha will be angry, right, master."

Master: "What the children said is very true. ”

In the end, the four of them chose a sky lantern, and then slowly unfolded the Kong Ming lantern and began to write their wishes.

Zhou Qian's wish is very simple, just four words

"Come on for the college entrance examination"

Cheng Siyu's wish is simpler: "In the new year, you will become richer, more beautiful and thinner"

Zhou Qian glanced at it, a little speechless.

Heart, where do you need to tell the Buddha these three wishes, I can help you realize them.

In contrast, Su Nan's desire is apparent

Red and specialized.

Su Nan's wish is eight words

"The mountains and rivers are safe, and the country and the people are safe."

Song Tingchuan's heart moved slightly.

Su Nan's eight words are more like being influenced by his story and telling some ancestors.

After Su Nan finished writing, he handed the pen to Song Tingchuan.

But Song Tingchuan didn't answer, but handed over his Kong Ming lantern

"I don't seem to have any wishes that I want to fulfill, so you can write for me."

Su Nan raised his eyebrows

"You're serious"

Song Tingchuan grinned, "Of course." ”

Su Nan was really unkind, thought about it, and then wrote three lines of small characters on Kong Ming's lantern

"May all the time not be disappointed, may all the memories be touched, and may the heart still be as warm as ever after all the experiences."

Song Tingchuan's inky eyes suddenly darkened, and after a few seconds of silence, he laughed dumbly

"I think the Buddha will let me fulfill this wish."

Su Nan raised his eyes to look at him and smiled shallowly.
