On the West Mountain, there is an ancient temple "Xishan Temple", which enshrines the golden body of the Buddha, and there are many miracles. Therefore, all the time, the incense is prosperous, and believers are all over the place.

Early this morning, many believers came to the temple to burn incense and worship with baskets and incense and candles.

However, the atmosphere of today's temple is a little different from usual, there are many unfamiliar faces, all of them are sturdy, vigorous, at a glance, you know that the origin is extraordinary, it is likely to be a disguise of elite soldiers.

Dare to love is that there are dignitaries and nobles from Beijing who have come to worship the Buddha.

This is not an uncommon occurrence.

Xishan Temple is famous, and it is said that the queen mother sometimes comes to worship in plainclothes to pray for the blessing of the Buddha and the health of the family and country.

Fortunately, when distinguished guests visit, the mountain is generally not closed, and it has little impact on ordinary pilgrims and believers.

There are many people in Xishan Temple, there are 18 buildings, which are divided into the main hall, the partial hall, the monastery, the Zen temple and so on. In addition to the all-round opening of the main hall, the rest of the places are quite particular about entering, and it is impossible to enter with idle status.

Among them, the Zen temple is an important place for activities presided over by the abbot, and it is even more difficult for ordinary people to enter.

At this time, the gate of the temple was closed, and the abbot, Master Jueming, was receiving distinguished guests.

The distinguished guest is about thirty years old, with a national character face and three wisps of beard, which is very elegant. He has a pair of phoenix eyes, cold and fine, a high nose, and an extraordinary bearing.

At first glance, it is somewhat similar to the rich man who used to help him drink alone and buy Ye Junsheng's pen and ink.

"Your Highness, what you are asking about is mysterious and mysterious, and the sky is obscure, and for a while, the old man can't care about it. ”

Master Jueming opened his mouth to address the other party as "Your Highness", and immediately pointed out the identity of the man, the current prince. The lord of the East Palace, Zhao Kuangqi.

Zhao Kuangqi arched his hand: "The master's mana is boundless. But please do the math for Kuang Qi. ”

Master Jueming nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll do my best." Give it a try. ”

As he spoke, he instructed a little novice beside him: "Mingyuan, you take the purple gold bowl for the teacher and go to the courtyard to hold a bowl of water." ”

The little novice with clear eyebrows answered the order, picked up the half-foot-diameter purple gold bowl, and walked out of the door.

Outside the Zen courtyard, there is an elegant courtyard, planted with three cypresses, six cold plums, and nine bamboos. Three things in the cold year. The arrangement is orderly, faintly forming a formation.

On the right side of the courtyard, there is a large water tank one person high, which is fastened with a wooden cover.

The little novice brought a stool, stood up, lifted the wooden cover, and used a purple bowl to draw water into the water tank. However, he was shorter and the water in the tank was shallower, so he had to stand on tiptoe. Lean forward as far forward as you can.

The water in the tank is drawn from a deep well in the mountain behind the temple, and it is clear and clear. When you drink it in your mouth, it is sweet and delicious, and it is a very good water source.

Call!

A strange wind swept up. It's unclear, it's eerie. The cypress trees in the garden were pruned with bamboo and plum trees, and many leaves were blown to make a rattling sound.

The little novice bowed his head to the water tank. I only felt that my back was blown cold by the strange wind, and I couldn't help but look up, and I saw that at some point, a large cloud was floating above the Xishan Temple, shrouded for several miles, and it was very dark.

"What a strange weather, could it be raining again?"

Little Shami muttered.

Gollum!

In the water tank, which he had not noticed, a blurred face suddenly appeared. A pair of long eyebrows drooped, fluffy hair, messy, rough look, even more weird and gloomy.

This human face appeared and disappeared quickly, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, as if it had merged with a vat of clear water.

At the same time, Master Jueming was chatting with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He grasped a string of Buddha beads in one hand, habitually counted, and suddenly on a whim, he hit a sudden, and under the force, he actually cut off the silk rope that connected the nine nine hundred and eighty-one Bodhi Buddha beads, and the beads were scattered all over the place.

The incident happened suddenly, and Zhao Kuangqi couldn't help but be taken aback.

Looking at the scattered beads on the ground, Master Jueming was at a loss.

Zhao Kuangqi asked, "Master, what happened?"

Master Jueming didn't answer, pinched his fingers and made a quick calculation, but he was always obscure and mysterious, and it was difficult to understand the qi, so he had to shake his head and smile bitterly: "I don't know, it's just that just a moment ago, my heart was like numbness, and I was very uneasy." ”

He has practiced meditation since he was a child, has wisdom roots, has mana, is qualitative like a stone, and is very stable, and he will definitely not break the Buddha beads for no reason.

However, what happened, no matter how you calculate, you can't figure it out.

Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, and many causes and effects in the red dust are common, and it is impossible to guess, which is not surprising.

After revealing this layer, he was slightly relieved.

"Master, Shimizu Sheng is back. ”

The little novice walked in and respectfully placed the purple gold bowl filled with water on the wooden table.

Master Jueming fixed his mind, restored the bearing and demeanor of a master outside the world, and said, "Your Highness, come and take a look at this bowl of water." When looking at the water, please pay full attention, pray sincerely, and speak your thoughts in your heart. It has its own reaction, or it can glimpse a scale and a half claw. ”

Zhao Kuangqi groaned slightly, and finally moved over, looking at the water in the purple gold bowl.

The water is very clear and you can see the bottom. Maybe it's because it's just put down, it's still a little unstable, and the water is rippling, like a moving mirror.

Unconsciously, Zhao Kuangqi's spirit was highly concentrated, and in accordance with Master Jueming's instructions, he prayed sincerely, and meditated in his heart.

Airplanes!

The water waves suddenly changed into a whirlpool, bringing in Zhao Kuangqi's soul crossing.

The world is different.

......

A flash of light flashed, and after a few breaths, it finally landed on the mountain behind Xishan Temple. Disappearing into shape, the stinky monk appeared.

His eyes were bright, looking forward to the front and back, left and right, and looked at the huge West Mountain, but he never found the existence he was looking for:

"It's strange, just now there was obviously a vicious aura rising into the sky, extremely fierce, how could it be that in the blink of an eye, it disappeared and disappeared?"

He circled around, but still found nothing.

"This evil spirit, déjà vu, when I encountered it in Yangzhou, was probably like this. I didn't expect to come to Jingshi now, do you also want to fish in troubled waters and get a piece of the pie?"

The stinky monk muttered to himself: "The other party has great powers, and after he appeared, he immediately covered up his qi and didn't let it leak at all, this time, it will be difficult to do." ”

"But since he chose Xishan, when he has a plan, I will follow the clues and follow the vine, maybe I can find out some clues. ”

Immediately, he cast another spell and went straight to the outside of the main hall of Xishan Temple. Holding a broken pu fan in his hand, he pretended to be a monk from Youfang.

"Monk Wuna, I finally caught you!"

Suddenly there was a loud shout.

The stinky monk turned around in surprise, and saw Chu Yunyu pointing at him angrily.

"Enemy, why did you meet him at this time?"

Chu Yunyu shouted: "Left and right, take down that monk." ”

The two guards received the order and immediately drew their swords.

The sword was revealed, and many of the elite soldiers in disguise who were holding their positions also showed their weapons.

Xishan Temple was in turmoil.

"That's it, the cause and effect are in the body, and I can't get rid of it, so I will avoid this experience for the time being. ”

The stinky monk pinched a trick and set up a light to fly away.

When some pilgrims and believers saw it, they were amazed and thought that they were gods, and they bowed down and worshipped. (To be continued.) )
