Fourth, there is a lot of money

I found a hotel, but Xiangling never liked to live in a hotel, Xiangling said: "Brother, you help me change the bed, I really don't like the quilt and sheets in the hotel." It's what you often call an inn. Qinglong waved his hand: "Okay, my little sister is really lonely." ”

Xiang Ling looked at a bed of white sheets that had turned into a pattern of big flowers, and the quilt was exactly the same as her own home, big and thick, and happily flipped through it back and forth, and said, "Brother, I don't like to live in a hotel, and I don't like this white quilt and pillow." I don't feel clean, I feel uncomfortable. Qinglong smiled: "You still have to take your big bed with you when you go out." You don't toss your brother to death. ”

Xiangling said: "I used to bring all my things with me when I went far away, bed sheets, pillow towels, and all the things I used to wash. Sometimes it's very heavy, so I don't like to go far away. Maybe that's cleanliness. Qinglong said, "Fortunately, you met me, and you will never have to worry." Xiangling said: "Yes, Brother Xin has not met others. Otherwise, I'll lose a lot. Brother, I used to travel well, but now it's like this, but I'm so unlucky, I don't want to go back. ”

Qinglong said: "You have saved a lot of people, and you are fortunate to have taken this flight." Otherwise, the lives of thousands of people would be lost. Rest early, even though the plane is gone. But your brother, I can fly you there. It's not simple. Xiangling said: "Good brother, you are the best." I slept. "It's late at night. In the past few days, Qinglong has been meeting Jianyu and negative in a row, Qinglong looked out the window, and he didn't know how long such days would last. Looking at Xiangling's sleeping appearance, he found that he could no longer give her up. Qinglong thought in his heart that he knew that he would bring disaster to Xiangling, even so, he was willing to follow her to live like this. Qinglong helped Xiangling cover the quilt, extinguish the light, and meditate on the bed as if in meditation.

Xiang Ling packed up and left the hotel, Qinglong carried Xiang Ling on his back and flew to Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea, Xiang Ling shouted: "Brother, look, there is a purple bamboo forest." Qinglong said, "We've arrived, it's the Purple Bamboo Forest." Xiang Ling said: from ancient times to the present, there is such a legend purple bamboo forest according to the mountain chronicles of the past dynasties, after Liang Zhenming, monk Hui Ye from Wutai Mountain to Guanyin statue back to China, the boat through the Putuo ocean was blocked, thought that the Bodhisattva did not want to go east, then left the Buddha statue on the shore, worshiped by the residents surnamed Zhang, called "unwilling to go to the Guanyin Temple", is the beginning of the opening of the mountain for Putuo to offer Buddha. ”

Putuo Luojia is integrated, and there is a saying that "if you don't reach Luojia Mountain, you will not finish Putuo". Later, in order to separate the two islands, one was called Putuo Mountain, and the other was called Luojia Mountain. Boat line lotus ocean, looking at Luojia Mountain in the distance is like a big Buddha lying on the vast lotus ocean peacefully, the head, neck, chest, abdomen, feet are clearly distinguishable, so there is the "sea of the great reclining Buddha" said. The journey from Putuo Mountain to Luojia Mountain takes about 40 minutes. It is said that "it takes twenty-four lotus waves to cross the other side".

There are three wharves in the south and north of the island for pilgrims to sail, and there are more than 3,000 meters of rocky road, which is called "Luojia Mountain Incense Road". Just like the "Forty-Eight Wish Tower" has a cloud: "The Silence Dojo is always happy and quiet, and the flowers and trees in the Luojia Victory Realm are deep." "Climb Luojia Mountain and look into the distance, look at the white sand in the south, the strange rocks of Zhujiajian, and look at the faint floating mountains in the north, the top is round like a kettle, it is for Huludao; Looking at Putuo Mountain in the west, undulating and undulating, like a dragon playing with pearls, the corner of the temple in the mountain haunts the green shade, the purple bamboo forest, the Fanyin cave, the thousand steps of sand...... Panoramic view

Xiang Ling couldn't wait to say, "Brother, let me down." I'm going to climb up the hill by myself. The green dragon landed at the foot of the mountain, and the green dragon said, "Don't be tired for a while." Xiangling said, "I will climb to the top of the mountain today and kowtow to Master Guanyin." Xiang Ling knelt down and took three steps and kowtowed, and Qinglong hurriedly pulled Xiang Ling up: "What are you doing?" What to do with a good kowtow. ”

Xiang Ling said stubbornly: "Today I just want to take three steps and one bow and nine steps to the top of the mountain, this is what I want to do the most." There are also people who come on foot to bow down to Guanyin. After speaking, Xiangling knelt down and bowed again. Qinglong said, "I thought you little guy was just here to have fun and be curious. I've been affected by you. ”

Qinglong watched Xiang Ling really do this, thinking to himself that I always thought that she was just a naughty boy who was not deeply involved in the world, but I didn't expect that she was different from everyone else, she could forgive others for things that she couldn't do, and she could also forget that she had only been herself. Qinglong also knelt down to accompany Xiang Ling to bow down, and Xiang Ling hurriedly said, "Brother, you don't have to worry about me." Hurry up. ”

Qinglong was silent. Xiang Ling looked at Qinglong's kowtow, but she didn't expect that Qinglong would never do anything in his life to kneel to the world and kneel down to his parents. actually bowed down with her in public. It shook her heart completely. Xiang Ling and Qinglong along the steps of three steps to kowtow nine steps and worship, in the early morning many tourists come here or watch or worship, from the mountain step by step to worship them.

Many tourists looked at it: "Look, there are people who take three steps and bow their heads, nine steps and one bow." "They all made way for them. Many people said: "You see, the boy who bows down with the girl is so handsome, even if he is a star, he is not as handsome." That girl was so lucky. If only I were that. Many old people said, "You see, the young people are so sincere, and we also go and bow down and ask the Bodhisattva for their blessing." ”

The elderly, children, women, and young people also followed behind Qinglong and bowed down, which sincerely touched the Qinglong to look at the respect for all living beings and gods. I remembered that a few years ago, the people knelt down and begged the sky for rain, and Qinglong secretly rained rain. Xiang Ling once said: "You have never done anything wrong. "I don't know if the knot in my heart thousands of years ago was unresolved by Xiangling's encounter, or I was moved by the scene in front of me.

This powerful kneeling formation turned into incense and the power of the wish permeated the entire Putuo Mountain, passed into the purple bamboo forest, floated through the Chaoyin Cave, flew over the Luojia Mountain, turned into the Buddha's sound and floated to the 32 heavens, straight through the land of a billion Buddhas to the Elysian World, the Western Bliss, the peacock opened the screen, the rows of trees composed of gold and silver glazed agate and glazed clams and golden sand collided with each other to play the Buddha music, the eight merit pools, the golden sand paved the ground, the glazed glass is the lotus leaf, the agate is the lotus branch, the lotus flower of a pool is only one is open with golden light, the Jade Emperor and the ministers of the 32 Heavenly Lingxiao Treasure Hall look at this holy scene, the Jade Emperor said: " Whoever is willing to have the power can go to the 32 heavens.

Come and check it out, "Clairvoyant Shunfeng Ear stood at Nantianmen, one eye let out golden light, and one ear listened to the Jade Emperor of the three oceans and five continents: "In Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea, there are millions of people worshipping Guanyin. The Jade Emperor said: "It is rare for the world to have this good root. The ministers whispered to each other and nodded frequently.

Shakyamami Buddha and the Buddhas, who were talking to the Buddhas in the West, suddenly heard the Buddha's music coming from the treasure tree, and the Buddhas were puzzled and said, "Please sit and watch the Buddha land of the ten directions, who is willing to reach the Pure Land?" A disciple came to report: "My Buddha, the disciple saw a lotus flower blooming in the water of the Eight Merits Pond. The Buddhas were puzzled: "There is such a thing." This lotus has never been so strange except for the people who have been reborn in the Pure Land. Please let me explain. ”

Shakyamami Buddha saw the ten worlds and said, "This scene is from the Guanyin Dashi Dojo. The lotus flowers in this pond are open, and there is a Buddha to be born. This is a heavenly opportunity, and no one knows whether it is a blessing or a curse. "Guanyin Dashi looks at Putuo Mountain. Suddenly, the golden light of the 33-meter-high golden statue of Guanyin at the top of the mountain shone on the entire mountaintop, and the crowd was amazed and stopped and began to bow sincerely: "Guanyin Bodhisattva has appeared." Bodhisattva bless. Xiang Ling pulled Qinglong's clothes: "Brother, look." The Buddha statue is shining with golden light. ”

Xiang Ling, who knelt down halfway up the mountain, said: "Brother, make a wish, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Xiang Ling whispered: "May the four seas be peaceful, all living beings in the ten directions live and work in peace and contentment, and no one dares to offend in China." Qinglong said secretly: "I want to be with you for eternity, even if I am scattered, I will definitely meet." Xiangling said, "Brother, I want to climb to the top of the mountain before the sun sets to offer incense to the Bodhisattva." ”

After a century, the scene reappeared on Putuo Mountain, and the last time the 33 Buddha statues were consecrated, they have not appeared since. The appearance of this Ruijing alarmed a divine beast dragon turtle holding a stone tablet in front of the temple: a stone statue. The stone statue is alive, the dragon eye looks down on the whole mountain, and he doesn't notice it, thinking that everyone is worshipping and moving the Bodhisattva.

The golden light vanished, and the dragon turtle turned into a stone statue. At a glance, looking down from the top of the mountain, the vast sea of people could not see Xiangling and them. Xiangling who slowly kowtowed from the halfway point of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Xiang Ling's physical strength was exhausted, her knees were numb and unbearable, and she walked staggeringly, and Qinglong followed carefully. Qinglong said, "Don't bow down. I'll carry you up. Xiang Ling said: "No, it's just here." I'm going to stick to it. Xiangling didn't stand up and fell straight down, Qinglong strode behind Xiangling, stretched out his hand to resist her, picked her up and landed gracefully with the winding mountain. Everyone froze. Qinglong understands that he can't cast spells, but only like this.

Xiangling looked at the top of the mountain: "Brother, you asked me to buckle up, they all went up, it must be that I don't usually exercise." Qinglong said, "It's caused by your dehydration." Well, I can't help you. Qinglong helped Xiangling kowtow to the top of the mountain. Xiangling said, "Brother, wait a minute." I can't buy water to drink. The man who walked to the stall to buy water said, "I want a bottle of mineral water," and the man said, "20 yuan," and Xiangling said, "You rob it." Cheaper. Qinglong stepped forward and grabbed the man's hand, and the man said, "You see, it's not easy for us to carry this water on our backs." Xiangling hurriedly said: "Brother, let go, what people said is right." I'm dying of thirst, give money. ”

Xiang Ling drank all the water in one go: "It's so cool, brother, do you drink water, I'll buy a bottle." Qinglong patted Xiangling on the forehead: "You know that I don't need to eat." Isn't it for yourself, little girl? Xiangling rubbed her head and said, "What's the matter, I obviously care about my brother." Brother, why did you hit me so hard? I'm going to hit you. ”

Qinglong said differently: "Little girl, rebel, dare to beat my brother." Xiangling said: "How dare you." Then he stretched out his hand and played the green dragon in the head. Qinglong chased after Xiangling: "Stop, let me catch you and beat you." Xiang Ling made a grimace. Qinglong chased Xiang Ling, Xiang Ling fell on the ground because of Kou Pai's soft feet, Qinglong hurriedly helped him up to check, rubbing his red hands: "It's so worry-free, it's bitter." Qinglong carried Xiangling on his back: "If you want to see the scenery, I'll take it around, stay honest." ”

Xiang Ling was tired and lying on the back of the green dragon and suddenly shouted: "Brother, look, this mountain is still surrounded by clouds and mist." Look at that purple bamboo forest is so beautiful, brother, such a big Buddha statue, take it around the Buddha statue. Qinglong walked around the Buddha statue as Xiang Ling looked at the Buddha statue in amazement, and Qinglong said, "You don't go to the incense." Xiangling said, "I'll go." Hurry up and take me there. ”

Qinglong carried Xiangling to the temple, the gargoyle dragon turtle in front of the temple felt a dragon breath, the dragon turtle statue turned into a pilgrim and followed the green dragon, Xiangling happily knelt down and bowed, and pulled down the green dragon: "Brother, can you also say goodbye." Qinglong and Xiangling knelt down to worship each Buddha statue. Qinglong said: "I'm afraid, all the things I won't do in this life will be fulfilled for you." Xiangling said: "Brother is the best." Xiangling said, "Brother, shall we go and ask for a talisman?" ”

Walked up to a monk master: "Master, can I ask for two amulets?" I also want a copy of the Lengyan Sutra and the Forty-Eight Vows. ”

Qinglong said, "What do you want to do with the scriptures?" Xiangling said, "Read." Brother, which one looks good, the man with Guanyin and the woman wear the Buddha. What do you think. Qinglong nodded. It is made of bright red rope and is braided into a blessing knot, with a jade Guanyin and Maitreya Buddha in the middle. Xiang Ling put a green dragon: "Brother, don't lose it." Qinglong said: "Then you will have to wear it for a lifetime." You have to hold it when you sleep. Xiang Ling said: "I haven't done a good job yet, when I make a lot of money, I want to give the Buddha a golden body," Qinglong said: "For you to finish the scenery on time, the boss lady will carry you." ”

Xiang Ling said: "Okay, brother, how about I also build you a golden body," Qinglong said: "I'm very annoyed to have you, then if everyone burns incense and asks for a wish in front of my statue, my head will die." Xiangling said, "Really? You just admit that you are unlucky. I'm going to see the big tower. ”

Qinglong on a whim: "Mingzhi cut the drum and speed the military plane, and Baisheng planned to encircle at night." The moon is dark and the wind is high and the gods are crying, and Jin Gebai writes about Tianwei. The path of the forest is deep, and the green mountains are self-explanatory. The stone hall has no place to leave pine shadows, and the water in the cave culverts the clouds and the hearts of the guests. The autumn colors are getting higher and the mist is dispersed, and the emerald is slightly flat and the twilight smoke is sinking. The flowing ripples leaned on the frequent shifting seats, and when the day would be repaid again and again" Xiangling said: "Brother, you can still chant poetry, hey, it is not easy for an ancient person like you to live in modern times." Saying that, they walked to the half-immersed sea of the Lachaoyin Cave, which was about 30 meters deep and about 10 meters deep from the cliff to the bottom of the cave. The coast here is tortuous and rocky, with rocky cliffs and strange rocks. The bottom of the cave leads to the sea, and there are two gaps at the top called skylights. The entrance of the tide sound cave faces the sea and is in the shape of an open mouth.

Day and night are beaten by the waves, and the tide rushes into the hole, like a flying dragon, and the sound is like thunder. In case of strong winds, the waves splash and the waves rush straight to the "skylight". If it is a sunny day, the rainbow in the cave is illusory, and it is a wonder.

Xiang Ling was too tired Qinglong picked her up and flew up to find a place to stay, and in the hotel, Qinglong suddenly said: "Since you are here, you haven't shown your true body yet, which one dares to follow me." Xiangling said: "Brother, are you tired and confused, who else can there be, is it possible that there are ghosts following us." He didn't dare either. "A dragon turtle appeared with a turtle head and a turtle shell on its feet, and a dragon's horns on its head and dragon scales on its body. Xiang Ling was startled: "Wow, what is he, but he doesn't look so terrible than the negative one." ”

The dragon turtle emitted a golden light, and its four claws receded into white jade fingers of human limbs. The turtle shell turned into a blue gauze robe, dressed in a dragon and snake totem, and the front temples like Guanyin were braided backwards into a lotus flower, with a jade bead in the middle, and a long white hairband with the hair to the waist, leaving two strands of hair on the temples and perpendicular to the chest. Yuyu eyebrows, handsome goose egg face, hooked nose, big double eyelids, soft apricot eyes, and said: "What are you, you have the orthodox atmosphere of the dragon clan. Qinglong restored his true body and said: "Tyranny." ”

Xiang Ling said: "He is the son of the dragon. He said: "Qinglong is really you." Eldest brother. Then he stepped forward and hugged Qinglong: "Big brother, how did you come out, little brother misses you so much." Xiangling pushed away the stump: "You are a big man, you are not allowed to hug my brother." He said, "He's my brother, how did he become your brother, big brother, this human girl is like this." Xiangling said angrily: "It's my brother," Qinglong said: "Don't make any noise, it's not clear for a while." You can treat her as a sister. ”

Zhen Tuo said: "There is no blood relative, let me recognize a mortal as my sister, how can she stand it." Xiangling said: "Why do you look down on people so much, you look the same as the negative one, you don't treat me as my brother, I prefer to call me the sixth brother, what is the sixth brother." He said, "What a rough little girl." You" Xiang Ling grimaced: "Brother Qinglong, they are all so fierce to me." Qinglong said: "You can't talk like this to Xiangling. ”

Xiang Ling said: "Everyone praises the virtues of the sixth brother, but they can't tolerate me, a little girl, 赑屃 (bìxì), also known as Baxia, resembling a turtle, and is said to be one of the nine sons of the dragon. It is the old six, the turtle foot of the head of the mantle, the weight of the life is good, the force is endless, the turtle under the stele is its posthumous image, the legend is that the ancient times often carry the three mountains and five mountains, in the rivers, lakes and seas to make waves. Later, Dayu subdued it when he controlled the water, and made a contribution to the water control, the flood was subdued, Dayu was worried that it was scattered everywhere, so he moved to the sky and the earth of the extra-large stone stele, which was engraved with the deeds of the water control, so that it carried, and the heavy stele pressed it so that it could not walk casually.

Baxia and turtles are very similar, but there are differences, Baxia has a row of teeth, turtles do not, and there are also differences in the number and shape of the carapace on the dorsal carapace of Baxia and turtles. Baxia, also known as the dragon tortoise, is a symbol of longevity and auspiciousness. The pedestals of some of China's most prominent stone monuments are carried by Baxia, which can be seen in the forest of steles and some historical sites. Legend has it that in ancient times, it often carried the three mountains and five mountains to make waves. was later subdued by Xia Yu and made a lot of contributions to Xia Yu. After the success of water control, Xia Yu let it carry its exploits by itself, so most of China's stone tablets were carried by it.

Baxia and turtles are very similar, but there are differences when you look closely, Baxia has a row of teeth, while turtles do not, and there are also differences in the number and shape of the carapace on the dorsal armor of Baxia and turtles. Baxia is also known as the dragon tortoise.

It always struggles forward with its head held high, holds its four feet tenaciously, struggles to move forward, and always does not stop.

He is infinitely powerful, good at doing good deeds, helpful, not afraid of difficulties, and striving for progress, which is a symbol of wealth, longevity, and auspiciousness.

Legend has it that he is the guardian deity of warding off evil spirits, avoiding disasters, praying for blessings, and protecting the house. The sixth brother treats the people like this, and I am one of them. It's not fair. Qinglong said, "You only know one but you don't know the other." Xuanwu is a spirit animal in ancient myths and legends, and belongs to one of the four elephants in traditional culture, which is the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the four holy beasts of Xuanwu.

From the pre-Qin period, it was a sacred beast representing the Seven Houses of the North, and in the Han Dynasty, the Five Elements Doctrine began to rise, and its symbolic meaning was more than non and winter.

Twenty-eight houses, Xuanwu is the general name of the seven houses in the north (fighting, bull, female, void, danger, room, wall) The four most terrifying and powerful beasts in ancient Chinese mythology are the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the four beasts of Xuanwu. Xuanwu is also known as Xuanming, the turtle and snake are combined, the god of water, living in the North Sea, the turtle has a long life, Xuanming has become a symbol of immortality, and the underworld is also in the north, so it is the god of the north.

And Xuanwu can also pass through the underworld to ask divination, so Xuanwu is different from the other three spirits, known as the "Zhenwu Emperor", is the god of Taoism. It's a swagger. Xiangling said: "I am so happy to have a few brothers who are capable of everything." "Lost to the two of you, since Qinglong asked me to treat you as a sister, then I'll give the eldest brother this face," Xiangling said: "Okay, sixth brother." You have a lot to say, you talk, I'm busy with mine. ”
