Chapter 135: Miraculous Meditation (Part II)
"Two flowers, one for each flower". After leaving Huangmei Dongchan Temple on a rainy night, he quietly came to an ancient temple 1,500 miles away from Huangmei Dongchan Temple - Chanquan Temple.
Since ancient times, it has been the center of Buddhism in the Jingchu region. Even the historical figure "Guan Yunchang - Guan Gong" has a lot to do with the temple, because his statue was first enshrined here.
It is said that in that year, Guan Yun lost Jingzhou by carelessness, defeated Maicheng, and was captured and killed by Eastern Wu, and presented his head to Cao Cao.
Without a head, of course Guan Yunchang couldn't look at it, so his soul stayed all year round and became a lonely soul with no head and no owner.
He often wandered around Jingmen, whenever the wind was clear and the moon was white, in the dead of night, he would cry out sadly in the air:
"And-I-head-come-"
In this way, he searched for more than 300 years, and no one could save him from his confusion.
Think about it, who can put his severed head back on?
One night, he floated to Zenquan Mountain in Dangyang County. At that time, Master Zhiyi, one of the most outstanding thinkers in Chinese history and the founder of the Tiantai sect, the first Buddhist sect in China, was meditating at Zenquan Temple when he suddenly heard someone shouting wildly in the air.
He stepped out of the gate of Yuquan Temple and shouted into the air: "Where is Yun Chang'an?" β
Guan Yunchang's soul landed in front of him.
Master Zhiyi said: "The general has been on the battlefield for 30 years and has killed countless enemies. You were killed by LΓΌ Meng, and you shouted, 'Give me back.'" So, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and those who were killed by you after passing five levels and killing six generals, who did you ask for their heads? β
Guan Yunchang suddenly realized that Ji Shou had taken refuge in Master Zhiyi.
Since then, Guan Gong has become the protector of Buddhism. Zenquan Mountain is a large number of high monks, famous in Kyushu.
Perhaps because of the attraction of this miraculous legend, the little novice who served Faru in Huangmei Dongchan Temple actually found Zenquan Mountain all the way.
He did not go to the temple to place an order, but walked deep into the mountains behind the temple.
Under a high mountain peak, in a dense pine forest, there is actually a small meditation room.
The mountains are steep, the dense forests are lush with bamboos, and the auspicious clouds are swirling on the top of the mountains, sheltering the Elysium of Buddhism;
The six gods are condensed, contemplating clearly, and the soul is full of joy and happiness, nourishing the quiet and quiet world of Zen.
The little novice pushed the door open. The one who was sitting quietly in the thatched hut turned out to be Faru, who disappeared in Huangmei!
"Second Senior Brother, I can find you!" The little novice fell to the ground, crying silentlyβhow difficult it must be for a seven-year-old child, alone, to look for a person who deliberately hides his traces in the vast land of the Central Plains! Everything is in this shout......
Faru opened his eyes, looked at Xiao Shami in amazement, and said, "Oh my God, how did you find Dangyang Mountain!" β
Xiao Shami knelt forward, threw himself on Faru's lap, and cried loudly: "Second senior brother, I found you so hard......"
Faru stroked his back and burst into tears.
After a long time, the little novice's bitter cry turned into sobbing.
Faru wiped his tears from his eyes and asked, "When did you leave Dongchan Temple?" Elder, how is his old man? How are the brothers? β
Xiao Shami choked up and said, "Since you and Zhang Shaofei left, the elder has stopped talking, and often even the door of the abbot's room is not open. Ying Yin and Hui Ming went to chase Zhang Shaofei to grab the mantle, and I went down the mountain. I inquired all the way, and finally found this place. β
Fa Ru said anxiously: "Yingyin and Huiming are too disagreeable, they are not as good as ordinary people, they are all nonsense!" β
The little novice said, "They said, Take the mantle back and give it to you." β
Faru was very disgusted: "Hmph, people's hearts are unpredictable. They are doing their own thing in my name. β
Xiao Shami added, "Most people in the temple think that Zhang Shaofei is illiterate and unworthy of the position of grandmaster. β
Faru looked at Xiao Shami, "All the laws and principles are not about words. Senior Brother Zhang has the wisdom of no teacher and has a deep understanding of the superior Buddhist way, and I can't compare to him. His side made me wake up like a dream and benefited a lot. What's more, the reason why the elders personally passed on his mantle was because of their wisdom and wisdom. β
Xiao Shami woke up like a dream, and asked anxiously, "Second Senior Brother, what should I do then?" They will not give up until they have achieved their goal. β
Fa Ru thought for a while and said, "Ji people have their own heavenly blessings. They won't succeed. However, they made such a fuss, how can I see Senior Brother Zhang Shaofei in the future......"
Just as Fa Ru shook his head and sighed, suddenly, Zhu Fachong's "Song of Poetry" faintly came from outside the door:
The spirit of Haoran is still in my mind.
People of the mountains and forests, go and don't turn back.
This "Song of Poetry" is Faru's favorite one, the poem uses Buddhist imagery, chanting the Buddha realm, expressing the feelings of seclusion, forming a unique Buddha hidden poem.
At that time, the Lushan poetry and monk group centered on Dao'an Gaotu Huiyuan attracted a large number of monks, celebrities, hermits, poetry, wine and singing, Buddha and hidden, Kang Seng Yuan, Zhu Fachong and other monks, all created a large number of hidden poems, the poetry style was tranquil and elegant, and had a great influence at that time.
This poem is also a portrayal of the state of mind when Fa is like this.
Faru opened the door and walked out. Outside the house, the jade rabbit rises in the east, the wind blows the trees, where is there a trace of people?
So, was it an illusion just now, or was it an echo in my heart?
There is a feeling that there is a response, and the bright moon is the same as the brilliance; Inorganic is not broken, a Zen heart is dust-free. Faru walks in the woods. The dappled moonlight on the ground, enlivened by the disturbance of his footsteps, like a group of mischievous elves, leaped around his feet, hiding, and seemed to hear giggles......
The night is as quiet as water.
As a result, Faru's state of mind gradually calmed down.
He clasped his hands together and looked at the mirror-like moon, muttering to himself as if praying: "My heart is like the moon in the sky." Senior Brother Zhang Shaofei, do you know ......?"
In the dark, at this time, Zhang Shaofei, who was deep in the big stone in the mountain in front of the Zenlin Temple, seemed to hear someone calling him.
So, Zhang Shaofei slowly woke up from the extinction. He slowly pulled out of the stone, and it was early in the morning.
Most of the flames on the mountain have been extinguished, and calm has returned to the surroundings, except for a few places where there is still smoke.
Zhang Shaofei took off the gold-threaded robe, dismantled it and put it in a cloth bag, left with his whole clothes intended, and his figure melted into the vast mountains......
