Chapter 34: Hanshan Temple
Yin Yin and Ruoxian blended in the crowd and followed the incense cart for a while. In recent years, the momentum of the famous sword villa has become more and more prosperous, especially in the realm of Gusu, many people in the rivers and lakes are more respected as the first village in Gusu, which is not only based on martial arts, but more importantly, the famous sword mountain villa has a great cause, and there are dozens of industries alone, covering different fields, there are restaurants, dart boards, weapons, silk, embroidery。。。。。 And so many more!
The land of Gusu, the land is fertile, the products are abundant, and the business is prosperous, but the martial arts have never been respected, therefore, in the past, Gusu is more than some third-rate sects, it is difficult to compete with the Wuyue Sword School, but in the past three years, several sects led by the sect have emerged a group of young juniors, the talent is extremely high, and the sect attaches great importance to it, and does not hesitate to spend a lot of money to collect the world's martial arts, carefully cultivated, and has the potential to revitalize the martial arts, and the wind and snow of the famous sword villa stand out among the peers and shine!
"Sister Yinyin, I have inquired clearly, today when the abbot of Naigu Su Hanshan Temple, Monk Duzhen, opened the temple door and preached Buddhism, presumably this eldest lady of the Famous Sword Villa must have gone to Nadu Zhen to burn incense and petition!"
"Oh, this Gusu Hanshan Temple is a famous temple in the world, and this abbot must also be a very remarkable person!" Yin Yin said curiously.
Ruoxian heard this, nodded, and replied: "That's natural, the abbot Du Zhen studied Buddhism, and was good at overcoming people's disasters, he was a monk who had attained the Tao, and was invited to the emperor to attack and promote Buddhism, and believers were all over the world."
Yin Yin fell into deep thought, remembering that her parents and brothers had suffered a flying disaster, and the dart game was killed by all the dead, and her body was in a different place, and now she doesn't know if there is a place to live after death, and she must be extremely resentful, and she must not be reborn, and as a son of man, she can't do anything. Every time I think of this, Yin Yin's heart is not a taste, if you can get a high monk to chant the sutra, it is naturally great!
Ruoxian saw that Yin Yin was depressed, and asked in a hurry without saying a word, "Sister Yin Yin, what's wrong with you?"
Yin Yin woke up and turned around, seeing that she was reminiscing about the past for a while, and she lost her mind when she touched the sad place, so she had to prevaricate with words.
The two walked for a while, and Ruoxian suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Sister Yinyin, why don't we also go to Hanshan Temple to have a good time?"
Yin Yin's heart moved, and it was obvious that Ruoxian's proposal was exactly what she wanted, so she agreed.
The two returned to the inn, picked up Yu Ban, saluted, rode on a white horse, and went straight to Hanshan Temple!
Hanshan Temple is located in the southwest of Fengqiao, ten miles outside the west gate of Gusu City. The seat faces east and west, and the gate is on the ancient canal. It was built during the reign of Emperor Wu of Liang (502-509 AD), and its beginning year is unknown. The original name was "Myori Pu Minta Temple". Tang Taizong Zhenguan Chu (627--649) famous monk Hanshanzi, came here to bind Mao to live, Tang Xuanzong when the famous Zen master Xi Qian (700--790) created Jialan here, the title is called Hanshan Temple!
Ruoxian and his entourage came to the front of Hanshan Temple, only to feel that the temple was full of incense, and the pilgrims were endless, so it was not magnificent. Lin Yinyin turned over and dismounted, tied the horse to the faulty tree in front of the temple, took the salute and walked towards the temple with Ruoxian and the others.
At this time, Hanshan Temple has already been crowded with pilgrims, today the temple door is opened, Duzhen preaches the scriptures and recites the Buddha, it has attracted a large number of people to come to the incense, among them there are prominent officials and nobles, gentlemen and celebrities, there are ordinary people, and there are many people in the rivers and lakes.
Yin Yin and others entered the temple, but saw the eaves of the classical pavilion in the yellow wall, the right is the Fengjiang Tower, and the left is the frost bell tower. Behind the Buddha shrine is a majestic statue of the general, facing inward, facing the Daxiong Treasure Hall, holding the vajra in his hand, also called the demon pestle, that is Wei Tuo, the head of the thirty-two gods under the four heavenly kings.
The layout of this Hanshan Temple is not too complicated, mainly with the main hall, the bell tower, the poetry tablet, the scripture building and so on. The main hall of Hanshan Temple is five rooms wide, and there are four rooms in total, and the room is about 15 zhang high. The single eaves rest on the top of the mountain, and the flying ridge is high, and the corner is stretched. In the center of the terrace, there is a copper stove for pilgrims to make incense and make wishes!
As a bell rang, the crowd immediately fell silent, and an old monk, dressed in a red robe and a treasure face*, began to chant: "The Buddha told Subodhi, all Bodhisattvas and Maksattvas, that they should subdue their hearts in this way. If all sentient beings are oviparous, if they are viviparous, if they are wet, if they are incarnated, if they are colored, if they are colorless, if they have thoughts, if they have no thoughts, if they have no thoughts, if they do not have thoughts, then I have caused them to enter nirvana and perish. If there are countless boundless beings who have been extinguished, and there are no beings who have attained the extinction, then why is it that if a bodhisattva has the appearance of self, the appearance of people, the appearance of sentient beings, and the appearance of the long-lived, he is not a bodhisattva. "The sound of the crossing is like a bell, full of energy, and the opening chapter is about the "Diamond Sutra".
Yin Yin sighed, although the scriptures spoken by Du Zhen seemed to understand or not, but Yin Yin noticed that the abbot of Du Zhen was strong, restrained, and breathing steadily, and then looked at his inner strength despite the sixtieth armor and was still full of energy, and he must have cultivated his internal strength to the ultimate realm, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "There is really a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world!"
Ruoxian listened to the scriptures, suddenly bored, no wonder she is so, on weekdays is the elf eccentric, lively and active, which will make it here to listen to people preaching the scriptures is really boring, and about a cup of tea, Ruoxian is really disgusted, so he pulled Yin Yin out of the main hall to the stele corridor.
"Sister Yinyin, the great monk's lectures are really boring, but they suffocate me!" Ruoxian complained.
Yin Yin glanced at Ruoxian whitely, and thought, this girl is here to see the excitement, no matter what, the scriptures spoken by this Duzhen monk are profound and complex, and she seems to understand it herself, and it is very boring!
Yin Yin glanced at the poem tablet, and was immediately attracted by one place, but saw its seal carved and said: "The moon is falling and the sky is full of frost, and Jiang Feng is sleeping." Hanshan Temple outside the city of Gusu, the bell rings in the middle of the night to the passenger ship"
"Good poem" Yin Yin sighed from the bottom of her heart, this tourist's feelings of detention suddenly touched Yin Yin's heart and made her discouraged!
"Sister, look" Ruoxian interrupted Yin Yin
Yin Yin looked in the direction pointed by Ruoxian, and saw a girl coming out of the main hall and walking towards the stele corridor.
The girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a peach blossom face, willow eyebrows, hands like soft wattles, skin like clotted fat, a light cyan gauze robe, with a mink shawl, simple but luxurious, hair like a waterfall, a phoenix hairpin bundle, exquisite posture, really everyone is beautiful
"Such a beautiful person," Yin Yin praised softly.
"Sister, do you know who she is?"
Yin Yin was puzzled and did not speak
Ruoxian continued: "She is the wind and frost of the Famous Sword Villa"
In fact, Yin Yin had already guessed in her heart that the fragrance emitted by this girl was similar to the fragrance emitted by the incense cart on the street before, and then looking at the dress, words and deeds, it must be wind and frost!
"Sister, wait a minute, wait for me to tease" Ruoxian smiled mysteriously and walked towards the girl!
Yin Yin was worried about startling the snake and wanted to stop it, but it was too late, Ruoxian came to the girl's side, blocked the way, and then shook the folding fan and looked back and forth!
"Bold, where did the wild boy dare to block my young lady's way," the girl beside her stepped forward and shouted
Ruoxian was not in a hurry or annoyed when she heard this, and stepped forward and saluted: "Miss is polite, in Xia Nalan Ruo, passing by here today, seeing that Miss is as beautiful as a fairy, I was stunned, and I blocked Miss for a while, I really damn it!"
Feng Xuanshuang was just about to speak, but another girl took the lead: "In this case, don't get out of the way, disturb our young lady Yaxing, I'm afraid you can't afford to eat!"
"Cui'er!" Xuan Shuang scolded
I saw that the girl lowered her head, but her eyes were not angry, they had seen a lot of this kind of scene, and when they saw the beauty of the young lady, they stepped forward to talk, most of them were prodigal and frivolous
Ruoxian smiled bitterly in his heart, I wanted to come forward to make friends, so as to find out the truth of some famous sword villas, but I was regarded as frivolous.
"This son, don't be surprised, it's all a little woman who is negligent in discipline, please forgive me" Xuanshuang exhaled like an orchid, and his words were very decent!
When Xuan Shuang first saw Ruoxian blocking the way, he thought that Ruoxian was also a prodigal son, but when he came to talk, he took a closer look, this young man had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, although he was dressed ordinarily, he was heroic and extraordinary, and his words were decent, and he was not overly rude. It's not disgusting. It's just that this young man has a very white complexion and a beautiful appearance, which is even better than that girl's birth, and he is immediately full of curiosity about him!
Ruoxian was thoughtful, and had already seen the clues, and said in her heart: "You little girl, you must see that I am better looking than a girl, and make fun of me in my heart, and see that I don't tease you!"
