446 Zen Shaolin
Stepping off the bus, Zheng Lei looked at the Dengfeng County in front of him, couldn't help but hesitate for a while, before taking the car, he made a special trip to buy books introducing the tourist attractions of Songshan, along the way, he and Hu Xiaowan kept going, but all the way, but did not find out where the Songshan Cave should be.
The Songshan Mountain of the Five Mountains, stretching seventy-two peaks, to find such a hole in the seventy-two peaks, it is not an easy thing, coupled with the introduction of the book, the Songshan area is the place where Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism are integrated, if it is only from the surface, if you want to find out the Songshan Cave referred to by the Taoist Cave Heavenly Blessing Land, it is not simple.
"Brother, aren't the people here very powerful. Hu Xiaowan suddenly asked for no reason.
"Well, why do you ask!"
"It says 'The world's martial arts are out of Shaolin'. Hu Xiaowan pointed to a sentence on the book and said.
"Oh, this, this just means that Shaolin Kung Fu is too famous, so some people will say so, in fact, many places have different schools of martial arts origins, no one can say where the world's martial arts come from, but you say so, I think we should go to this Shaolin Temple first. Zheng Lei said.
"Let's come this time, aren't we looking for the Taoist cave blessed land, what are we going to do in Shaolin Temple? Hu Xiaowan asked suspiciously.
"Who said that there can only be Taoism in the blessed land of Dongtian, this Dengfeng is known as the place where the three religions are most integrated, maybe, the place we are looking for may be near the Shaolin Temple. Zheng Lei said.
Hu Xiaowan frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "I don't think it's possible, if the people of the Demon Dao really use the Spirit Gathering Array to destroy the dragon vein, and it is near the Shaolin Temple, then it is impossible for the Shaolin Temple not to stop it!"
"Then if the Shaolin Temple also thinks like this, and the people of the Demon Dao also think like this, if both of them think so, then it just responds to a sentence. Zheng Lei smiled.
"What a word!"
"The most dangerous place is the safest place!"
"What if you don't!"
"If there really isn't, then let's travel, anyway, this time we don't have a very clear direction, just in this group of mountains to look for slowly, it's not a bad thing to walk more, after all, this Shaolin Temple is a Zen martial arts holy land, go, maybe it will be a lot of benefits to us." Zheng Lei said.
"Brother, I found a very strange place!"
"Where. Zheng Lei was looking around.
"Oh, it's not the mountains here, it's what you say!"
"What's strange about what I said!"
"You said that Shaolin Temple is a holy place of Zen martial arts, I remember that I used to have some articles about Wudang, which is called the holy land of Daowu, it's really strange, why does this martial arts still have to be divided into Daowu and Zen Wu!"
Zheng Lei thought for a while and said, "I can't explain it to you, the people of the Daomen practice martial arts, and the people of the Liberation Gate practice martial arts are Zen martial arts, what's so strange about this!"
"Do you know how to explain it?"
Zheng Lei was stunned for a while, and then he had to say: "Oh, I don't know, let's go to Shaolin Temple first, if you have anything to say there, you can ask those monks!"
"Oh...... , my brother finally couldn't answer. Hu Xiaowan shook Zheng Lei's arm and said.
Zheng Lei was helpless for a while: "I'm happy if I can't answer!"
While talking, the two stopped a taxi and headed to the Shaolin Temple.
Along the way, the car did not go fast, and it was heard that the two were foreign accents, and the driver master also kept introducing them to some things about Shaolin Temple, among which Zheng Lei was most impressed by the martial arts schools that can be seen everywhere.
All the way to the front of the Shaolin Temple, Zheng Lei looked at the verdant and jade thousand-year-old cypress in front of the Shaolin Temple, and felt a sense of vicissitudes.
There was an endless stream of tourists coming and going, and the two merged into the crowd and walked into the mountain gate of the Shaolin Temple.
When she arrived at a monk, Hu Xiaowan said excitedly: "Brother, there is a monk, let's go and ask!"
Zheng Lei grabbed her, smiled slightly, and said, "Don't panic, the real masters in Shaolin Temple are not these monks walking around!"
"Who's that. Hu Xiaowan was puzzled, and there was a monk wearing a robe sitting in one of the halls, and hurriedly said: "Is that person, I have some cultivation, let's go and ask him!"
"No, let's take a walk, maybe we'll find such a person. Zheng Lei said mysteriously.
Hu Xiaowan's mind was full of doubts, no matter how she tried it, Zheng Lei just didn't say who was the real master, the little girl gradually began to doubt Zheng Lei, he had never been here, how to know that the real masters here were not those monks, even if the real person didn't show up, there had to be an explanation.
Zheng Lei walked around with Hu Xiaowan, strolling leisurely, without the slightest intention of stopping a monk to inquire about the news.
Walking and walking, the two walked to the backyard of Shaolin Temple, which is inaccessible, and ordinary tourists rarely come here, Zheng Lei stood at the door of the backyard, and suddenly had an idea, don't step into this courtyard, but he didn't follow the idea in his heart, but pulled Hu Xiaowan and gently pushed open the hidden door, just a wall, outside the wall sounded full of people, but as soon as he walked into the door, it was incomparably quiet.
Zheng Lei smiled and said: "It should be here, the walls around you are carved with formations, blocking out the noisy sounds outside, and even when someone walks to this door, there will be a kind of idea not to go in, don't you think it's strange!"
"It's a little weird. Hu Xiaowan whispered softly and walked towards one of the houses with an open door.
At this moment, in the largest house, a little monk walked out, walked up to the two of them, and said, "Two donors, please respect the teacher!"
Zheng Lei smiled slightly and said, "Please lead the way!"
Hu Xiaowan's face was inexplicable, my brother shouldn't know anyone here, how could it be as if someone was waiting for him, and followed Zheng Lei into the largest house, an old monk knelt quietly in front of the Buddha, did not knock on the wooden fish, and did not chant sutras, just knelt there quietly, like a living Buddha.
Zheng Lei raised his head, in the main hall, enshrined Cihang Taoist, that is, Guanyin Bodhisattva, he gave Guanyin Bodhisattva incense according to the Taoist etiquette, and then knelt quietly next to the old monk, also silent.
Hu Xiaowan and Zheng Lei knelt down and knelt next to him.
After a long time, the old monk opened his eyes and asked without turning his head: "Where is this!"
Zheng Lei was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Isn't this Shaolin Temple!"
The old monk was stunned for a moment, did not speak, and slowly closed his eyes.
Zheng Lei wondered for a while, could he be wrong, isn't this Shaolin Temple, is this wall separated from Shaolin Temple to the ends of the world, for a while, question marks kept popping up in his mind.
Hu Xiaowan was also in a fog when she heard it on the side, this old monk was in the Shaolin Temple, why did she have to ask others where this was, could it be that this old monk was so old that he forgot where he was.
Just when the CPU in Zheng Lei's brain was overdrive, the old monk opened his eyes again, still maintaining the same movement, and asked the same sentence.
This time, Zheng Lei pondered for a moment and replied, "In front of the Buddha!"
The old monk said a rare sentence: "If there is no Buddha in my heart, how can I be in front of the Buddha." With that, he closed his eyes again.
Zheng Lei was even more depressed, he couldn't answer such a simple question, what kind of answer did this old monk want.
After a long time, the old monk opened his eyes again, and still asked, "Where is this!"
Zheng Lei stood up lightly, saluted the old monk with Taoist etiquette, and then said, "The world!"
The old monk pondered for a moment and said, "Thank you, you and I have no chance, let's go." With that, there was no more sound.
Zheng Lei looked at the old monk, and suddenly found that the old monk was more and more like a stone, he looked at Hu Xiaowan suspiciously, and at the same time as he looked at Xiaowan, Xiaowan actually looked at him in the same way, both of them had that kind of puzzled look in their eyes, and they looked at each other, and the two of them turned their heads to the old monk at the same time.
This, the two of them were suddenly shocked, above the futon, where is there an old monk.
Xiao Wan stood up suddenly, and hurriedly ran to both sides of the Buddha statue, and after finishing, he said suspiciously: "Brother, where did he go!"
Where did Zheng Lei know, so he had to shake his head, look up at the statue of the Bodhisattva, and then salute and pull the little girl out of the house, as soon as they walked out of the house, the two went to the courtyard There was an old monk who was older than the old monk just now, holding a broom, slowly sweeping the ground.
"Sweeper. Zheng Lei suddenly remembered the ultimate boss in Tianlong Babu, he smiled at Hu Xiaowan and said, "Xiaowan, have you arrived, that person is the most powerful master!"
Hu Xiaowanyi said suspiciously: "Sweeper, why!"
Zheng Lei smiled and said nothing, can he say that this is the case in Tianlong Babu, can he say that he is also joking with himself, Hu Xiaowan was full of suspicion, he pulled her up and walked towards the sweeping monk.
The sweeping monk didn't seem to notice the two of them, and swept it by himself.
"Master, can I ask you a question? Zheng Lei asked softly.
The sweeping monk didn't realize it, still sweeping his ground, Zheng Lei bowed his head, the ground was clean, not even a single fallen leaf, this old monk swept something vigorously, what he said in martial arts, it was really a lie, could it be that there was more than one sweeping monk in Shaolin Temple.
Zheng Lei didn't stand abruptly in front of the old monk to block him, but with such a movement, the old monk should have met him.
After being stunned for a moment, Zheng Lei couldn't help but say: "There is no ash on the ground, and there are no fallen leaves, what are you sweeping." ”
