From now on, the Son of Heaven does not come early

Chapter 49 Hungry Ghost Festival (2)

Tender Rabbit blinked and blinked, not knowing what the Buddha was thinking. She lowered her head and saw all the living beings sitting under the nasturtium, looking at them with longing faces, which made her suddenly think of the old ancestor who mentioned in the book The desire to live, the ancestors said that people have all kinds of desires, and worshiping Buddha is nothing more than praying for Buddha.

So Tender Rabbit became serious: "That's what I heard. At one time, the Buddha only treed in the Lonely Garden in Sravasti. Moggallana first obtained six powers. He wanted to save his parents and repay the kindness of breastfeeding..."

At this moment, the Buddha also closed his eyes with a smile, like a listener, listening quietly, and everyone lowered their heads and continued to listen to the scriptures.

The little girl's voice was soft and waxy, with a bit of a child's voice, it was really cute.

Not long after, the sound of real snoring came from the lotus seat. When I looked up, I could see the Buddha who had already slept on the lotus seat. Everyone didn't dare to disturb her. Ye Xiaoxiao blinked and looked back, seeing that the Buddha's eyes were closed , The snoring is still the same, but the face is still gentle and peaceful.

Ye Xiao didn't stop when he urinated, and continued to preach the scriptures until he finished reading.

However, Fa Yuan hadn't woken up yet, so everyone waited until the sun went down.

Fa Yuan opened his eyes, looked calmly at all the sentient beings who were calmly waiting for him to wake up, and said with a smile, "Why don't all the benefactors speak harshly to the poor monk?"

When all living beings were silent, Fayuan laughed: "The reason why Buddhism is grand is that it doesn't force people to enter Buddhism, but only persuades people to do good and overcome sins. Although this female benefactor is small, she shows others her true heart, which is better than throwing stones." Villains are much kinder."

Fa Yuan's words made Wang Qian's face change suddenly. The abbot had been preaching with his eyes closed, so why could he see it?
When he looked up, he saw Prince Feng Junran looking over, his slender eyes were pitch black, and he shot like a knife.

Wang Qi shivered, and quickly lowered her head.

Tender Rabbit blinked, looked up at Abbot Fayuan, and saw him smiling kindly at him.

The meat rabbit was infected somehow, blinking his big eyes and laughing too.

"It's time to cross the Buddha."

A sound of the dharma horn ended today's lecture, and everyone stood up and moved around. Feng Junran walked to the lotus seat with his long legs, took the rabbit from the abbot's hand, and hugged it in his arms, but he clearly felt the warmth of his arms. Li's body froze slightly.

Feng Junran didn't take it seriously, and said as usual: "Dare you sleep next time?"

Tender Rabbit silently shook his head, moved his eyes slightly, not knowing where to look.

The crowd dispersed, went to the door to get the lotus lanterns and boat lanterns, and then went to the moat.

Crossing Buddha, crossing ghosts, and crossing oneself.

Fa Yuan looked at the backs of the two leaving, his peaceful face became a little more respectful.

"Abbot, why do you say so much to this benefactor?" The little monk couldn't help asking Fa Yuan while tidying up.

The Buddha smiled slightly: "Fodu has a predestined person."

"Is this lady a destined person?"

Fa Yuan smiled: "The life of the metal fire is a phoenix, which needs to be reborn after Nirvana."

"Amitabha!"

A Buddha's name was recited solemnly, Fa Yuan stopped talking, turned around and entered the Daxiong Palace, leaving the young monk standing there with a blank face.

Nirvana?If a person reaches Nirvana, where can he go to be reborn?Can only be reincarnated?
Shaking his head, the bald young monk couldn't understand what the Buddha was thinking, so he could only lower his head and continue cleaning and practicing.

The sky gradually darkened, every house turned off the lights, and the streets were pitch-black. Only by the river, a long string of lanterns stretched along the river, illuminating the dark river.

In the Shangyuan Celebration, lights are lit to worship the Buddha. The Buddha is at home, that is, the walls are full of lights. In the Zhongyuan Celebration, the waterways are cloudy and the ghosts are in the water, so boat lights are placed in the water.

Feng Junran hugged the person in his arms, and the faint sweet fragrance from the little girl's body came over, blending with the faint fragrance of ambergris on his body, and blended into another smell mixed with the breath of the two, with coldness and sweetness.

Looking at the tender rabbit's rare straight face under the reflection of the river lamp with slender eyes, Feng Junran slowly explained the origin of the Ghost Festival, looked up, and saw the end of the road, beside the bluestone arch bridge, Feng Yiran changed Dressed in plain clothes, he stood among the bustling crowd.

The lantern illuminated his figure long and dimly, and Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't tell whether those wandering around Feng Junran were humans or ghosts due to the eerie aura of the Ghost Festival.

However, the fourth brother just stood there quietly, with a composed smile on his face: "Xiao Xiao, didn't we agree to release the river lantern with Gu?"

The meat rabbit struggled for a while, Feng Junran put the man on the ground, Ye Xiaoxiao looked up at the prince's face, the handsome face remained the same, in the dark and strange atmosphere, only this face hadn't changed at all, it was still the same As usual, cold and indifferent, Ye Xiaoxiao even had the illusion that even if the entire street turned into ghosts, only this person would never change.

"Go!" The hoarse voice made her inexplicably relieved.

Even though she knew that today was Ghost Festival and the dead would come back, Ye Xiaoxiao felt that as long as the prince brother was around, she would not be afraid anymore.

Nodding obediently, the tender rabbit slowly walked to Feng Yiran's side, looked up, and saw that the fourth brother's expression was a little weird.

"Brother Huang, don't bother me anymore!" Feng Yiran smiled lightly, and cupped her hands.

Feng Junran nodded lightly, glanced at the unusually quiet rabbit, turned and left.

Chang'an was in total darkness, every house was not lit, even the imperial palace was no longer brightly lit, only the temples, gymnasiums and even the rivers were brightly lit.

Ghost festival ghosts, I don't know what kind of ghosts will appear tonight.

Feng Junran took the little girl's paw and walked slowly among the dark crowd.

Because of her height, Ye Xiaoxiao could only see pairs of legs crossing the border from her side, and she could hear people's playfulness, and occasionally in the gaps, she could see people burning paper on the street, laughing and laughing. It also sounded weird today, but Feng Yiran was still teasing her with a smile: "Xiaoxiao pulls my lonely hand, the people from the underworld come back, but they will take away the living!"

The fleshy rabbit's face turned pale, and he quickly grasped his warm hand. Feng Yiran couldn't help but smile, and walked out of the crowd in a few steps. The river was beside him. It was clear and cold, and there were no people there. The boat lights moved slowly on the water, and a little bit of orange-red light flickered, reflecting the whole river red.

The meat rabbit took out her own river lantern, which was a lotus lantern given to her by the abbot Buddha, but it was a little different from others. The candle in the lotus was carved into the shape of a phoenix, with a wick biting the beak, and the little man lit it himself. He Deng, walked to the river and put down the lotus lantern.

The phoenix candle burned slowly, even the light was much brighter than other river lights.

There was finally a smile on Tender Rabbit's face, and he sat on the grass by the river, watching quietly with his chin in his hand.

She wanted to put her feet in the river to play in the water, but the grandmother said that the river is the way of ghosts and will be taken away.
