In the palace of the king of Qiu, there was a sound of coquettish cheers from afar.

Xiao Qing sat on the table angrily, stretched out a pair of jade fingers and pointed at the five ghosts in front of him, and said angrily: "You five, why don't you speak up when you see him casting spells to deceive me!

Bai Fu defended: "Young Master Qing, you were in his hands last night, we were afraid that something would happen to you, so we worked so hard, why did we still become a few of us!

"You're still quibbling!" Xiao Qing exclaimed, "Then you blame me for saying that?!"

"We stole other people's treasury silver, which was originally wrong, but people didn't do anything to us from beginning to end, young man, you can dissipate your anger!"

Bai Fu knew Xiaoqing's temper, and gave the four ghosts around him a look, and several people hurriedly spoke: "In the future, our brothers will listen to Qinggongzi's orders for everything!"

A few ghosts are good to say, Xiaoqing barely dissipated the anger in his chest, but he just made up his mind, when he sees Qiao Chen'an again, he must teach him a hard lesson, jumped off the table, and said: "You guys, hurry up and practice, otherwise if this continues, when will this son defeat that stupid Jiao!"

When Qiao Chenan returned home, he was no longer in a hurry to rush back to the academy, except for accompanying his parents every day, he spent the rest of his time practicing the exercises, fortunately, his own qualifications were not bad, and the exercises he practiced were of the highest quality, and the speed of refining the turbidity qi of Qiankun had accelerated a lot these days, which made him a surprise.

After staying at home for another seven or eight days, Qiao Chenan planned to stay for a few more days, but his parents were afraid of delaying his studies, so they began to urge him to return to the academy.

It has only been more than ten days since they left, but the city of Hangzhou is very different from when they left, except for some local residents, the streets and alleys are full of visitors from other places, busy with traffic, and noisy people.

Not only that, there are also many rich family members in gorgeous clothes and expensive clothes on the street, some foreign monks, Taoist priests, etc., the fish and dragons are mixed, and there are many juggling stalls and acrobats on the street, and the business of some small traders is very hot.

After a little inquiry, most of the inns in Hangzhou City were already full of people, and the restaurant and art hall were constantly crowded with customers, and Qiao Chenan never expected that this water and land festival would attract so many people.

When I returned to the academy, the first thing I did was to meet my teacher Wang Lizhi, but I saw that the latter seemed to have a little worry on his face.

Within a few days, there were no less than a dozen fights and clashes in the city, and even caused deaths.

And Wang Lizhi is worried about more than that, this time came to Hangzhou City is not only ordinary people, but also many outsiders with Taoist skills, in case of such an accident in life, who can stop it at that time?

Three days passed in a bustle in a flash, and soon it was the day of the festival, the atmosphere of Hangzhou on this day was particularly hot, the whole city seemed to be much more active than before, when the sky was about to dawn, there was a burst of noise on the street.

Qiao Chen'an was quite interested in this festival, woke up early, changed his clothes, picked up the white fox that was still sleeping and threw it on his shoulder, went out of the courtyard gate, walked no more than a hundred steps, and when he got out of the alley, there were people in front of him.

And when he comes to the edge of the West Lake, the distant east will give birth to a little light, like a cluster of fireworks lit in the dark night, dyeing the layers of glow into a clear gold, and beginning to release light and heat to the earth, bringing hope for life.

On the surface of the West Lake, there are countless large and small pleasure boats, all of which are exquisitely decorated, lit with Chinese lanterns, swaying with the wind, driving slowly on the surface of the lake, waving layers of ripples.

Qiao Chen'an walked along the lake and visited the scenery of the lake at will, but he saw the willows in front of him, and the water was rippling, like a piece of jade embedded in the ground, reflecting the distant mountains and close views.

On both sides of the path along the lake, there are vendors selling all kinds of knick-knacks; seven or eight children run along the meadow, holding long silk threads in their hands and paper kites tied to the ends, flying high in the wind; and you can see scholars walking side by side, reciting poems and shadows.

Jingci Temple is located on the south bank of the West Lake, with the approach of Qiao Chen'an, there are more and more people around, to the end, it is already bustling, almost shoulder to shoulder, looking around, the crowd is crowded, the slight cold of the early morning has been washed away.

In the past, although the Jingci Temple had continuous pilgrims and endless crowds in the morning and evening, how could it have been so lively today?

Although Qiao Chen'an had expected it, he couldn't help but be surprised when he actually came here and felt the hustle and bustle surrounding him, he still underestimated the popularity of this festival.

With the flow of people walked forward nearly a hundred steps, he looked up, and finally saw the true face of this world-famous ancient temple, in front of the temple door stood a bronze round tripod with a tall foot, three legs and two ears, in which three thick sandalwood sticks were inserted, burning slowly.

On both sides of the temple gate is the town gate of the male division, majestic and tall, lifelike, the copper bell eyes look straight ahead, so that people dare not look at it.

The bright yellow courtyard wall, the red vermilion gate, the pillar is solemn, and the vermilion plaque directly above the temple gate has two square and strong gilt characters of "pure mercy".

Arriving here, there is a small novice dressed in light gray monk's robe to guide everyone into the established position, obviously the temple has already arranged for today's situation, the general pilgrims can only listen to the wonderful teachings of Buddhism in the square in front of the temple, and the people who can enter the temple are either dignitaries and dignitaries, or monks and visitors from other regions, Taoists, and their identities are extraordinary.

Naturally, this group of scholars and scholars in Hangzhou City were also arranged, on the side of the temple square, near the corner.

The puja does not begin until noon and lasts for three days, so people can still enter the temple.

After the temple gate, through the square is the Daxiong Treasure Palace, the decoration is heavy and solemn, majestic and magnificent, the main hall is the natural Buddha of the teacher, the two sides of the hall are the eighteen Arhat statues, behind the Buddha statue of the main hall, there are the statues of Guanyin, Manjushri, the three major scholars of Fuxian, the indoor sandalwood fragrance is pervasive, as if covered with a layer of white mist, there is a faint sound of wooden fish, let people be clear for it, do not give birth to the slightest evil thought.
