That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 1059 Gathering in the Palace

After the Great Brahma retreated, Wanyan Zongbi's expression changed. After a few times of hesitation, he gritted his teeth, knelt down on one knee, crossed his arms across his chest, bowed his head to Xiao Zhinan and said, "Just now Wanyan Zong must have offended something. Your Highness, please punish me."

This noble son who was born and built the Yan family is also a man who can bend and stretch. Since Buddhism has already assumed the attitude of having nothing to do with himself, then he can only rely on himself.

Wanyan Zong must be extremely indifferent to such things as strength of character and face. If kneeling can solve the problem, then he doesn't mind kneeling on this woman who is younger than him.

Xiao Zhinan said flatly: "You don't have to be like this, please get up."

After Wanyan Zongbi got up, he helped Concubine Wanyan Yu, who looked both lonely and sad, and stood in front of Xiao Zhinan and Xu Beiyou, respectfully.

Wang Kaizhi bowed his hands to the couple and said: "This time I thank Sect Master Xu, and I also thank Your Royal Highness the Princess."

A group of disciples following behind him also saluted, and said in unison: "Thank you, Sect Master Xu, and thank you, Your Highness the Princess."

Xu Beiyou smiled lightly and waved his hands, "Mr. Wang is too serious."

Wang Kaizhi shook his head slightly and said no more.

As the saying goes, no thanks for a great kindness, what happened today, he owes Xu Beiyou and his wife a lot of favor.Previously, if Wanyanzong would succeed, he, a Confucian gentleman, would be disgraced. He naturally knows which is more important.

Xu Beiyou said to Wang Kaizhi: "Mr. Wang, the Fa conference is about to start, let's go to the main hall first."

Wang Kaizhi nodded slightly.

Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan took the lead, and Wanyan Zongbi and Wang Kai's group could only follow closely behind.

Originally there were only two people, but now, there are nearly 20 people, which is not a small momentum.

After walking not far away, he saw Da Brahma standing there, Xu Beiyou cupped his hands and said thank you, Da Brahma returned the salute with his palms together, and after reciting the Buddha's name, he temporarily acted as an acquainted monk and led the way.

At this time, there are still fluttering snowflakes falling, and the entire Buddhist temple is covered by the wind and snow. The magnificent main hall in the distance is looming in the wind and snow. At first glance, although the main hall is only one floor, it is more than ten feet high. , covering an area of ​​tens of acres, black and red tones, heavy and solemn, hundreds of red lanterns neatly hung on the tall outer wall, swaying in the wind.

Outside the main hall, there is also a long artificially dug river, which surrounds the whole main hall like a moat. In the dark, countless lotus lanterns float slowly with the river, and the stars are dotted. If it is changed to night, it will be like a galaxy falling into the world. It is really a beautiful scene.

There is an eighteen-hole arch bridge across the river, carved with jade railings, and there are palace lanterns hanging on the handrails on both sides. At this time, they have been lit up, exuding a flushed luster.

Walking on the bridge, everyone except Da Brahma was amazed by the beautiful scenery. Different from the uncanny workmanship of Taoist Xuandu, the unique ingenuity of Buddhism lies in the word "exquisite", with details and thoughts everywhere.

After crossing the bridge, you can see a straight path leading directly to the main gate of the main hall. The gate at the end is majestic and majestic, as high as nearly ten people, and the huge door weighs a thousand jun.

After entering the gate of the temple, the opening is more than twenty feet long, surrounded by huge pillars tens of feet high, and between the gaps stands the statue of King Kong, the guardian of Buddhism, which is nearly twenty feet high. When ordinary people walk, they look like ants.

Through the door opening, you will come to the front hall of the Daxiong Hall, which is quite different from the layout of the Daxiong Hall in ordinary Buddhist temples. In front of you is a screen wall with the same height as the main hall. It is more than forty feet wide, and there is a big "Zen" carved on it. The characters, just the word "Zen" are much bigger than a person, and there are still huge pillars around the screen wall, and it is difficult for three or four people to hug them.

A group of people stopped in front of this screen wall, all shocked and amazed.

Xiao Zhinan inadvertently looked up, and saw that on the dome tens of feet above the ground, there were actually golden lamps adorning them. At the end of the line of sight, there is really golden light like the sea, and the Buddha Dharma is boundless.

Such a scene, how can we not admire.

Such a magnificent building, I don't know how many years of accumulation it will take to complete it.

After everyone recovered from the amazement, Da Brahma continued to lead the way, bypassing the screen wall, and finally reached the center of the hall.

The width of the main hall is almost comparable to the size of an ordinary urn city, and it can accommodate tens of thousands of people. The most central position is a lotus pond, with a square area of ​​three mu, in which there is pure jade water, full of aura, and there are large and small golden lotuses in the water. , in the center of many golden lotuses is a huge golden lotus platform, on which sits a big Buddha, pointing to the sky with one hand and pointing to the sky with the other, implying "heaven and earth, I am the only one respected", it is the statue of Buddha enshrined by Buddhism.

At this time, many people had gathered in the temple.

Most of them are monks, but there are also people in other costumes, such as Confucian scholars in fluttering clothes, Taoist priests in star crowns and feathers, warriors in simple costumes, nobles in brocade clothes, all kinds of people are different.

Many of them were acquaintances of Xu Beiyou.

For example, Chen Ye, the owner of the Demon Palace in Daomen Town, Lan Yu, the owner of Tianji Pavilion, Ge Zeng, the elder of Molun Temple, Li Qingyu, the owner of the Li family in Jiangling, Ye Daoqi, the owner of the Ye family in Wei State, Shangguan Yun, the owner of the Shangguan family, and the Tang family in Shuzhou. Patriarch Tang Shengyun and so on.

There are enemies and friends, and they gather together.

One of the monks who was admired by all the stars was Chan Master Qiuyue.

Surrounded by twelve-color Buddha lights, he is dressed in white monk clothes, his face is as white as jade, handsome as a woman, and his face is full of compassion, his eyes are clear and free from dust.

The Qiuyue at this time is different from the Qiuyue Xu Beiyou saw before, especially in her demeanor, which is more in line with the identity of the abbot of Buddhism.

In the current situation where Qiu Ye, the head teacher of the Taoist sect, does not come out, Qiu Yue is a well-deserved No. 1 in terms of prestige and status, and even Wanyan Beiyue is slightly inferior.After all, Wanyan Beiyue seldom participates in the right and wrong among monks and sects in the world. Regardless of whether you are good or bad, it has nothing to do with me, and you are more like a hermit.But Qiuyue is very different. He often enters the world, resolves grievances and mediates for others, and mediates in the middle. Many earth immortal monks have received his favor and tried their best to pass on his achievements. high.

When Xu Beiyou and his group entered the hall, the entire hall suddenly fell silent.

Qiuyue was the first to look.

There were still some people who didn't know what was going on, and followed Qiuyue's sight.

The hall became more and more quiet, almost a pin drop could be heard.

I saw the white-haired young man stepping forward alone, cupping his hands and cupping his fists, "Jianzong Xu Beiyou, I have seen you all."
