In the fifth round, the tiger leaped and the dragon soared, and the Xuandao spirit sword fought sixteen

"Senior sister, you... What are you doing here?" Ye Hua stumbled and said. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Poof!hehe" Ling Yun'er snorted and laughed, "You think you're all as late as you?!"

Ye Hua's face turned red and said, "Senior sister, it's not too early now, hey, why didn't you see Master and a few uncles this morning?"

"Master and several uncles have already gone to the Immeasurable Palace, let's go there in a while!" Ling Yun'er said.

Ye Huaqi asked, "Isn't it the Infinite Palace?

Ling Yun'er said with a smile: "We haven't worshiped the Holy Ancestor Manjushri yet, how can we go straight to the top of the Bodhisattva....

"Senior sister, junior brother, why are you two here?" Qing Yu saw the two of them in the distance, walked over and said from afar. Before Ye Hua and the others could answer, Senior Brother Bai Shisong and several senior brothers came out of the house one after another and beckoned Ye Hua Lingyun'er over.

Bai Shisong said: "Brothers, the master has just explained, according to the previous rules, let's first go to the Guanyin Hall to gather, meet the ancestors of the Dafu Linghu Temple, and then go to the Manjushri Hall to hold the opening ceremony of the Zen Forest Conference!"

"Yes, Senior Brother!" everyone replied.

Bai Shisong nodded and said, "All the junior brothers go to clean up one or two first, how about we go in a moment?!" "That's very good, senior brother!" Everyone prepared one or two for each other.

After a while, a group of nine people went to Dafu Linghu Temple, the stone path along the way is very secluded, about half a moment, everyone saw that the front suddenly cleared, the road was wide, there were several groups of people walking in front, more or less, more than forty or fifty people, less than eight or nine people on their side, etc., all of them were disciples of one hundred and twenty temples in Wutai Mountain.

A group of people in Bishan Temple walked forward with the disciples of its temple, walked for a while, passed a stone gate again, turned a corner, a wide in front of them, revealing a square of 100 acres, the ground was smooth as a mirror, and it was very smooth. At this time, the square was already bustling and crowded. Men and women, old and young, monks and laymen, look carefully, but lay disciples account for the vast majority.

"Heh!" Ye Hua whispered, "I haven't seen so much yesterday, I don't want the Zen Forest Conference to be so grand!"

Qing Yu said with a smile: "If it is in the past, the number of people must be even half or less than this time, all because this Zen Forest Conference is really extraordinary!"

"What the fifth junior brother said is right, but it is so. Although there were a lot of people expected at this Zen Forest Conference, I never expected so many!" Bai Shisong also sighed. Ye Hua looked forward, and in front of the square was the Guanyin Palace, with heavy cornices, towering and wide, which was really extraordinary.

Everyone chatted together for a while, and the number of people in the square increased, and they saw more than 100 old monks coming out of the Guanyin Hall from a distance. Qing Yu said in a low voice: "It seems that all the senior uncles and ancestors have come out!"

Everyone looked intently, and the head was an old monk with a dragon bell, and his eyebrows were white. The monks who followed behind all bowed their eyebrows. Slowly walked to the high platform in front of the Guanyin Hall and stood still.

This old monk Ye Hua didn't know him, but seeing that he was at the forefront, he also knew that this must be the one with the highest seniority, so he didn't know which ancestor it was. Just as he was thinking about it, Qing Yu asked Bai Shisong in a low voice, "Senior brother, this ancestor doesn't know that this master is the master of the Dafu Linghu Temple, Ruhui Master?"

Bai Shisong nodded slightly and said: "It is Ruhui Master, we were fortunate to meet this ancestor before we traveled down the mountain ****** back then! The one behind is the Rujing Master of the Dharma Hall, the one behind the left is the Rugang Master of the Luohan Hall, and then the one in the back of the yellow monk's robe is the Ruzhen Master of the Precept Hall, and the monk on the right is the first Rudry Master of the Elders' Courtyard, and I don't know the one in the back, it should be the monks of the Elders' House..."

Before Bai Shisong finished speaking, everyone heard a "Amitabha!" It was for Touru Hui Shizu to shout a Buddha number. Thousands of people on the field suddenly fell silent and looked forward. Ruhui Shizu stood on the stage and looked around at the disciples below. With a hint of approval, he said slowly: "Today's Wutai Zen Forest Festival, gathering one hundred and twenty-one monasteries, four thousand eight hundred and sixty-one excellent disciples are here, so there is today's grand event, Wutai has not had such a grand occasion since the founding of Manjushri Holy Ancestor in this thousand years!"

Ruhui Shizu paused for words, and said: "The Zen Forest Conference is the meaning of assessment, which is divided into five grades, and only a disciple can go down the mountain to practice, which is the rule of my Wutai for thousands of years." This time, the demons of Yingzhou are rising, which is different from the past, so this Zen meeting, the second-grade disciples can also go down the mountain to practice!"

When everyone heard this, they whispered for a while, as if they were not much surprised, as if they had already known.

Ruhui Master Ancestor said slowly: "All the disciples listen to the training!"

All the disciples in the audience bowed their heads and said respectfully: "Yes, Master!"

Ruhui Shizu said: "The Zen forest competition is an assessment, and the disciples compete to the point, if there is a violator, the teacher will be punished!" "Yes, Master!" The disciples said in unison.

"En" Ruhui Master nodded and said: "All the disciples line up and go to the Great Manjushri Hall to worship the Holy Ancestor of Manjushri and respectfully invite the Buddha's golden body!" After speaking, Monk Ruhui slowly turned around and walked towards the Guanyin Palace, and the ancestors behind him also followed.

Thousands of people under the stage lined up a team of one hundred and twenty people, and they also slowly followed, through the Guanyin Palace, everyone entered the Guanyin Palace, Fang Jue This Guanyin Hall is really grand, the hall is more than ten zhang high, about one hundred and ten zhang wide, enough to accommodate thousands of people. The wood carvings are painted and solemn. The Buddha statue in the hall is tall and brilliant.

Most of the people came here for the first time, and they couldn't help but be amazed. The north and south of the Guanyin hall are transparent, and so through the Guanyin Palace, behind is a large square again, just north is a big hall again, the scale of the momentum is still better than the Guanyin Palace, in the middle of a number of plaques, written with the four characters of Dou Da "the Great Wenshu Palace".

Everyone lined up slowly to the front of the Wenshu Palace, Ye Huafang noticed that there were two octagonal stele pavilions in front of the hall, each of the stele pavilions stood a white marble stele, the stele was less than eight feet high, two and a half feet wide, there were words on the stele on the left, look carefully, it was said to be standing on July 19, the 46th year of Wentong. There is no word on the stele on the right, so I don't know what it means.

Ye Huaqi asked, "Fifth Senior Brother, why do these two tablets have words on one and no on the other?"

Qing Yu chuckled and said, "This junior brother, you are asking the right person! Most people don't know the origin of this!"

Qing Kai said with a smile: "Little junior brother, don't listen to Senior Brother Qingyu's nonsense, this monument is called "wordless monument". It is a spiritual treasure of the Dafu Vulture Temple! Its origin is that it existed here at the beginning of the temple, how could Senior Brother Qingyu know!"

Qing Yu smiled slightly: "These three senior brothers, you are wrong, I saw the origin of this stele from an ancient book, whether it is true or false, I don't know, this stele is for the purpose of carving and remembering, why is there no word on this stele? Legend has it that the place where the stele pavilion was built was originally two circular pools, and the water in the pools was as clear as a mirror. In that year, the Buddha lamp monk Chaotai, Dafu Vulture Temple was first built, and came to the front of the Manjushri Temple. He looked up and saw that the top of the handsome Bodhisattva was sitting right at the foot of the Vulture Peak, like a dragon, lying high with his head high. An archway is the head of the dragon, two flags are the horns of the dragon, one hundred and eight steps extend down from the archway, just like the dragon spits out the tongue of fire.

When the sun shines on these two pools, two circular halos will appear on both sides of the wooden archway on the top of the Bodhisattva. Straight as a dragon's eye. This time, the Buddha lamp monk knows that this is the real dragon spirit vein!

He told Zhu Falan, the host at the time: "The dragon has eyes, I'm afraid it will fly away, and if the dragon vein is lost, I'm afraid that the aura of the entire Wutai Mountain will be greatly reduced!"

The monks from the Tianzhu Buddha Kingdom in the Western Regions, Morteng and Zhu Falanjian, the Dafu Linghu Temple, originally valued the spiritual veins here, and heard the words of the Buddha lamp monk, and asked for advice on the method of suppression.

The Buddha lamp monk told Yifa: "If you want to lock the true dragon spirit vein, you have to break off your eyes, and if you break your eyes, you have to fill up two pools, and then set up two stone tablets on them to suppress them!" Zhu Falan asked the Buddha lamp monk to write an inscription, and the tablet was engraved on the stone tablet on the left.
