golden escape

The monastery is full of monks wearing yellow monk uniforms, one by one, clasping their hands together, and slowly reciting scriptures. Within a few kilometers of the entire temple, these monks can be heard reciting mysterious scriptures. In short, some people's restless hearts couldn't help calming down.

Looking at these monks, those reporters couldn't calm down. It seems that the handover ceremony is about to start now, but they are still waiting outside the gate to obtain the qualification to pass. It seems that this ceremony will not be held in the courtyard. If you stand at the gate , What can be photographed, can the backs of these monks be photographed?

At this time, the monastery began to be cordoned off, and there were monks and soldiers in military uniform walking around. Only the monks were in charge of the ceremony, while the soldiers were in charge of safety.

Seeing the cordon, these reporters suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the cordon was prepared for them. It was exactly what they wanted to be able to photograph the whole process of the ceremony at close range.

Sure enough, after the cordon was set up, an officer came towards them with a few soldiers, and saluted everyone outside the temple, "My friends from the media, please take your belongings and show your interview Please come to us for registration. Due to the limitation of the location of the temple, we only accept the entry of media above the province, and each media can only enter a maximum of two people. Friends who do not have an interview card or a press card and do not meet the above conditions Friends, please take a few steps back, it is about Buddha relics, I hope you will cooperate."

Hearing the officer's words, some city-level media reporters couldn't help but feel aggrieved, but looking at the soldiers with live ammunition next to them, they didn't dare to have any opinions, but after thinking about it, they were relieved.

This monastery is really small. There are at least a hundred reporters like them at the entrance, not only national media, provincial media, and even some municipal media rushed to come here, just to win a little ratings .

If they all go in, it is estimated that this ceremony will not have to continue, and they alone can occupy the entire temple.

The reporters from the provincial and above media couldn't help being excited, picked up the camera on the ground with one hand, and tightly held their interview badges with the other, and squeezed forward with difficulty.

After registering at the soldiers at the gate and undergoing a body check by several soldiers, they finally entered the monastery they had been expecting for a long time. In the monastery, soldiers naturally guided them to keep them outside the cordon.

"I'm a reporter from the provincial media. Why don't you let me in? Do you discriminate against people from our province?" A middle-aged man with a very obscene appearance shouted loudly.

But the officer in front of him still had a serious expression, "I'm sorry, but your press card and press card are forged, so you can't enter."

"You know it's a forgery, so tell me where it is." The middle-aged man rolled his eyes and kept shouting loudly, preparing to grab the officer's clothes with one hand.

The officer looked at him coldly, and then pushed him to the ground with one move, "Take him down, and advise those who want to fish in troubled waters, the Buddha's relic is extremely important, we will never show mercy to you, dare to disturb For the Buddha relic handover ceremony, we have the right to reserve the right to kill."

The officer's cold expression, and the appearance of the soldiers next to them with live ammunition, could not help calming down the chaos at the scene.

After the journalists from all provinces and above entered, Master Huijie and several other Buddhist masters, surrounded by monks, slowly walked out of the inner courtyard of Hui’an Temple, with Buddha umbrellas printed with lotus flowers and Buddhist Dharma-protecting golden dragons on their heads. It looked extremely solemn.

And Fang You, still surrounded by several Buddhist masters, slowly walked towards the main hall of Hui'an Temple.

The monks following around, some were knocking on the wooden fish, some were littering scriptures, the whole team looked very huge.

Hui'an Temple is extremely weak, there are only a dozen people in the whole temple including presiding officers, and the monks performing the ceremony are all seconded by Master Huijie from other temples.

Outside the cordon, the reporters had already set up their long guns and short cannons. The moment Master Huijie came out, they were flashing lights continuously, while the cameras followed Master Huijie's footsteps and kept recording the entire ceremony. the process of.

The entire temple was enveloped by the solemn Buddha's sound, and the surrounding air seemed to be affected by the Buddha's sound. At this moment, the wind stopped, the surrounding leaves were no longer fluttering, and the people at the gate of the temple stopped making noise and were all immersed in the In this solemn and peaceful scene.

When Master Huijie came to the gate, the two monks guarding the gate slowly opened the gate. Master Huijie and other Buddhist masters entered one by one, chanted the Buddha's name, and knelt down to the Buddha statue in front of them.

When Master Huijie and his group entered the gate of the temple, under the guidance of the soldiers, some of the reporters beside them went to the gate to take pictures, and some entered the side hall of the temple through the side gate. Follow a troop of soldiers to prevent them from disrupting the relic handover ceremony.

After kneeling down, Master Huijie got up and stood up, "Amitabha, today is a day of great significance for Buddhism. Just today, before the statue of Buddha, we will welcome back a phalanx relic of Buddha's real body. For those who have given, please Fang Xiaoyou stand in front of the statue of Buddha and accept our thanks."

Fang You nodded, walked slowly towards the Buddha statue, then stood in front of it, and turned around, facing Master Huijie.

Although Fang You is very annoyed by this kind of random ritual, but in order for the relic in his hand to get a good home, he can naturally overcome all difficulties. Without this relic, I am afraid that his strength will be improved to the present This level is no different than climbing to the sky.

The kindness of a drop of water should be reciprocated by the spring, this is Fang You's character and style all the time.

"My old monk and fellow Buddhist friends hereby express our deep gratitude to Fang Xiaoyou for his act of donating Buddha's real body relics free of charge for the sake of all living beings in the world. Thank you Fang Xiaoyou for everything he has done for Buddhism and for the common people in the world." Then, Master Huijie put his hands together, and slowly bent down towards Fang You.

And the Buddhist masters and many monks in the back also bent down to worship, "Thank you Fang Xiaoyou for everything you have done for Buddhism and for the common people in the world."

"Amitabha, next, let us greet the return of the Buddha's real body relic with pious hearts." Master Huijie put his hands together again, knelt down on the futon, and bowed to the relic in Fang You's hand. All the monks shouted the Buddha's name and knelt down one by one.

After the ceremony, Master Huijie stood up slowly, Fang You put the brocade box in his hand into Master Huijie's hands with a smile on his face, clasped his hands together, and bowed slightly, "Master Huijie, please be sure Treat this relic well."

"Fang Xiaoyou, please don't worry, we will naturally do this." Master Huijie smiled slightly, and the two queens took the brocade box, "Dear buddhist friends, let us thank Fang Xiaoyou again."

At this point, the handover ceremony is basically over, and what is left to everyone is the unspeakable excitement. This kind of grand scene can never be seen in normal times. Buddhist masters are all very mysterious, and some of them live in the temple all year round and don’t hear about the world. , Now that the Buddha relic was born, they all came out one by one, feasting everyone's eyes.

Master Huijie held the brocade box of relics in both hands, and smiled slightly, "Everyone, the relics of the Buddha's real body finger bones will be transported to Famen Temple in a few days, enshrined in the relic tower, and accept the worship of all people."

"Now, in order to allow Buddhist friends to experience the Buddha Dharma contained in the Buddha's relic at close range, I have decided with all my juniors to give you a chance to see the true face of the Buddha's relic today. Please seize the opportunity, old man. I have heard that more than one person doubts our identification these days, and now I just want to reply to them, how can the Buddha's Buddha's light be tarnished by such hateful bastards like you."

After finishing speaking, Master Huijie looked dignified, placed the brocade box on the table in front of him, then bowed slowly, opened the brocade box, took out the relic of the Buddha's real body finger bone with both hands, and wrapped it on the relic After the yellow silk cloth was lifted, it was gently placed on the table, and then bowed again, "All Buddhist friends and journalist friends, you can come forward to watch. Remember, don't get too close, so as not to damage the Buddha's relics."

Under the instructions of Elder Chu, several soldiers urgently cordoned off the table within one meter and stood at a corner to prevent everyone from approaching.

Hearing Master Huijie's words, those monks who hadn't seen the Buddha's relic couldn't help but raised their heads and looked at the Buddha's real body relic on the table.

Immediately, their agitated eyes suddenly returned to peace, and they were completely immersed in the peace of mind brought to them by the Buddha's relic.

There were also some Buddhist disciples who involuntarily recited Buddhist scriptures on the way to watch the relics. Other disciples were all attracted. Immediately, there were bursts of mysterious scriptures in the whole hall.

In the midst of these scripture lawsuits, Fang You was naturally not idle, and seized the opportunity to sit on a futon next to him, pumping up the gray air flow in his body, and continued to assimilate.

The words of Master Huijie also excited the reporters at the door and in the side hall. Under the guidance of the soldiers, they slowly entered the hall, picked up their cameras, and just wanted to take a group of close-up photos of the Buddha's real body finger bone relics. But just as they picked up the camera, their hands stopped in mid-air, and their eyes and faces were full of surprise.

This Buddha's real body finger bone relic looks like jade but not jade, and the surface is extremely smooth. Amidst the grand Buddha's voice of many Buddhist disciples, they only feel that looking at this Buddha's real body relic, all the distracting thoughts in their hearts are one by one. Removed, leaving only the most peaceful side in my heart.
