when!when!when!

  The melodious sound of the bell floated down from the mountain.

  Song Wuque's heart was calm, and he looked at the surrounding mountain scenery with beautiful peaks and dense forests.

  Looking up, you can see the stupa and the bell tower peeking out from the trees.

  After reading Lu Miaozi's experience, he has a very good foundation in architecture, and he can watch it from the eyes of an insider.

  Most of the pagodas are made of large bluestone, with a complex structure. There are nine octagonal layers and doors on all sides. The carvings on the pagoda body are gorgeous and unusual. Religious things such as flying sky are in high spirits and lifelike.

  The pagoda is made of iron, with eight chains that are pulled to the top of the pagoda.The lower five floors are set in the pagoda, starting from the fifth floor, but hovering along the outer eaves of the pagoda to the top floor. This kind of baaj is rare in the pagoda architecture.Especially the tall and gorgeous iron brake, handsome and straight, protruding above the mountains and forests, like piercing the sky.

  The reason why Song Wuque paid so much attention to the architecture of the Jingnian Temple was just to confirm an earlier impression of the Temple, that the temple was not in conformity with the rules everywhere, and had a style of its own.

  What amazes him most is that the decoration of the building is in the most gorgeous and terrifying setting, but it still gives people a feeling of simplicity and truth, just like a beautiful woman in full dress. , so it can maintain the natural beauty of beauty.

  The stone steps were exhausted, and Song Wuque arrived at the second mountain gate.

  On the forehead above the door, there are four characters for the person who enters, and couplets are engraved on both sides: "The twilight drum and the morning bell awaken the world's famous and wealthy guests, and the sound of the Buddha's name recalls the sea of ​​suffering and the charming dream."

  There was a smile on the corner of Song Wuque's mouth, thinking that if he was not only a celebrity, but also a charming dream.

  But who is not in the world, they are all struggling in the sea of ​​suffering in this world, unable to help themselves.

  After a slight pause, Song Wuque entered the mountain gate.

  The first hall with a width of seven rooms stood on the square behind the door. Two old monks were cleaning the fallen leaves, ignoring the intrusion of his guests.

  It is not surprising that Song Wuque, this is a matter of course, he immediately walked towards the first main building on the central axis.

  The cigarettes in the hall are full of cigarettes, rising from the three-legged furnace in front of the three Buddha statues enshrined at the southern end.

  He didn't know much about Buddhism. He only knew that the kind and dignified person wearing a golden crown in the middle was Vairocana Buddha, and the Buddha statues on both sides were not much.

  What attracted him even more were the dozens of statues of arhats lining the walls in the hall.The eight pillars and column bases that support the main hall are all meticulously crafted and matched with sparse and majestic painted bucket arches. force.

  A Buddha's name came after him, and then someone said, "Donor Song is here, I don't know why?"

  Song Wuque recognized the voice and said without turning his head, "Don't be angry with the monk, I don't know what the names of the two Buddhas on the left and right are?"

  The head of the Four Dharma Protectors, Bu Angrily replied, "On the left is Medicine Buddha, and on the right is Buddha Amitabha. Since the donor of Song does not know Buddha, it is reasonable to enter the temple and not worship."

  Song Wuque turned around gracefully, lowered his eyes and said with a smile without hatred: "Although I don't know much about the Buddha, I know all the dharmas as my heart. Kneeling down to worship is only a superficial form. You shouldn't judge a person's sincerity towards the Buddha by this!"

  He opened his eyes to look at him without anger, flashed a surprised look, and said indifferently: "It is said that there are all things inside and outside, so the Buddha has the appearance of Buddha. Maybe the words of the donor can only be applied to the donor! Then ask the donor. of the heart.”

  Although he didn't say it directly, the meaning behind it was obvious, that is, Song Wuguo was wrong and made up his own words.Of course, the matter of He Shibi is involved.

  Song Wuque smiled slightly, how could he care about his sarcasm, and said, "This time I'm visiting, I want to meet with the head of Brahma to solve some things."

  Without anger, he looked at him with God for a while, before saying, "Please, please!"

  The leader stepped out of the gate.

  Song Wuque thought that it was unexpectedly smooth, so he let him go, and followed in the footsteps of no anger, and went deeper into the direction of the backyard.

  Along the way, I met a monk from time to time, but everyone ignored him, as if he was indulging in his own pure and inaction religious life.

  After passing the splendid bronze temple in the sun, turn left without anger and enter an ancient stone road with bamboo trees on both sides.

  The monastery houses on both sides are hidden among the bamboo materials, simple and simple, and completely different from the beauty of the hall, but after the white plaster is loose, there is a natural beauty like no grease.

  Although Song Wuque didn't catch a fan of Buddhism, he was quite content.

  All the way, when you carefully feel the deep secluded, far-reaching, peaceful and tranquil atmosphere in the Zen courtyard, the scenery changes, the houses become thinner, replaced by pines and green cypresses, and the rocks are rugged. Walking along the stone road, you can see the right The two characters of Buddhism and Taoism are chiseled on the wall.The stone cliffs on both sides gradually rise, the mountain road narrows, and the stone walls on both sides are the statues of various Buddhas carved in the shape of the low cliffs, all of which are leisurely and lifelike.

  Song Wuque frowned slightly. .

Chapter 558

  The reason why Song Wuque frowned was because although the situation in front of him was full of Zen, it was obviously not his purpose.

  Buddhism is everywhere, suddenly enlightened.

  I saw that at the west end of this Zen courtyard, there was an abbot's courtyard engraved on the top, a majestic hall with a width of seven rooms and nine ridges on the Xieshan Mountain, built on the edge of the cliff, and the situation was extremely dangerous.

  Song Wuque asked in a cold voice, "Has Master Fu led the wrong way? This should be the residence of Master Kong who is presided over by your academy!"

  Without anger, he replied casually: "If the donor wants to see Miss Shi, it must be decided by the abbot of this hospital. Why is it strange?"

  Song Wuque knew that Fan Qinghui would not be so easy to see, and after complaining in his heart, he followed him to the hospital.

  The Abbot's Court is divided into three entrances: front, middle, and back. The entrance is an empty reception room without any furniture. There are only portraits on the two walls.

  Not angry, he instructed Song Wuque to wait here, and went through the door to enter the inner room.

  Song Wuque was idle and had nothing to do, and was just browsing the portraits on the wall. Although the portraits were different in shape, fat and thin, all of the paintings were deliberately managed by him. The paintings made everyone look solemn, the Buddha's light shines, and the face is kind, a pair of rescuers. Great kindness and compassion.Next to the image is an introduction text such as the name and the ordination entry ~ Silent Years.

  The portraits are clearly arranged in chronological order. When the last one on the left wall was reached, Song Wuque was a little surprised and took a closer look.

  I saw that the old monk was painted with white eyebrows and deep wrinkles on his face, and he seemed to be at least seventy years old.

  "This is……"

  I saw that this monk's face was at least eight or nine points the same as the current presiding over Kong, just like Kong's old age.

  "It seems that this fellow also has the skills to keep his face... That's right, an extraordinary master, it's not impossible to live for two hundred years... It's just that few can keep it as good as Lakukong's."

  The world of Ssangyong is not like the wind and clouds, it is often seen for a long time.

  Moreover, even in the wind and clouds, not all masters can live forever, at least the masters of Long Yuan are no different from mortals, they can live for decades at most, and they still have to live and die.

  Even a top master who has practiced the Heaven-shifting God Art and the World-Destroying Demon Body, the God of Immortality, can only achieve immortality, but cannot achieve immortality.

  Neither does Di Shitian.

  It is not easy to put the old man in his twenties or thirties back from the old man in the painting.

  A voice of no anger sounded from the back: "This is the portrait of the host of our temple fifteen years ago. At that time, he was entering the customs to practice Zen, so he asked people to make the portrait."

  Song Wuque commented lightly: "Nowadays, the masters who maintain their youthful appearance are mostly young and successful, so they can keep their faces, and they can rejuvenate their youth when they are empty, which shows that their Buddhist practice is good."

  Bu An originally thought that Song Wuque would be surprised, but seeing him so indifferent, the abacus suddenly fell to the ground.

  He obviously didn't like Song Wuque's high-profile comments.

  Gao Xuan Buddha's name He Shi said: "Buddha Dharma is boundless, turning back is the shore. The host of our temple is waiting for the donor in the middle court, please!"

  Song Wuque turned around, seeing no anger and no intention of leading, nodded, and entered the atrium on his own.

  boom!

  The wooden door closed behind him.

  The space that is ten feet deep and wide and three feet high has only four empty walls.

  Kakugo sat down with his knees crossed facing the wall and his back turned to him.

  This can rejuvenate the old, powerful monks have a closed door on both sides, revealing an unfathomable atmosphere.

  Song Wuque sent a faint smile from the corner of his mouth, and said calmly, "Does Monk Liaokong have any advice?"

  Le Kong was wearing a gray monk's robe with dark brown shoulders hanging on the outside, and the hall of Kong Guang was silent.

  Song Wuque put his hand on Zhuo Li, like another stone statue outside of this high hatred, without the slightest impatience.

  After a while, Liekong's soft voice said softly, "I wonder if the three famous temples and caves in Luoyang have been visited by Donor Song?"

  Fight with me here?

  Song Wuque complained in his heart, and his face remained calm.

  He had already anticipated the dispositions of Buddhists, so no matter what riddles Kong said, or even Buddhist meditation, he would not be surprised.

  It seems that mentioning the famous places of Luoyang at this moment has nothing to do with the current affairs, and Song Wuque is not surprised.

  "Oh" Song Wuque said, "I've only been here in Luoyang for a few days, but I haven't heard of it. I wonder which three famous scenic spots you are talking about?"

  Liaokong said: "The temple is the White Horse Temple, which is the first Buddhist temple in Luoyang. When the two eminent monks, Shemo Teng and Zhu Flan, were welcomed back from Tianzhu, the Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues were all carried by white horses, so it was named after the white horse. It is the beginning of Buddhism in Middle-earth, so the temple is also known as 'Shiyuan' and 'Ancestral Court'. Buddhist believers, if they don't visit this temple, they will regret it for a lifetime."

  Song Wuque said, "What about the Dachan Temple?"

  Liaokong said lightly: "The specialization is slightly different, and there is no comparison. The donor has time to visit the two temples and compare them by himself."

  Without waiting for Song Wuque to speak, he continued: "The Guan is Laojun Guan, which is located at the top of Cuiyun Peak in Mangshan several miles north of the city. According to legend, it is the holy place for the sage Laozi Li Er to practice alchemy. Unfortunately, it is now controlled by demons, and the holy land has become an evil cave. ."

  Song Wuque showed undisguised interest and asked, "Saint? Evil cave? What do you mean by this?"

  Liekong replied calmly: "There are many things, and it is not convenient for Lao Na to elaborate. I just heard that the donor of Song had obtained the [Longevity Secret] of another Taoist sage, Guangchengzi, so I will mention it by the way."

  Every word of his speech contains a mystery, which is esoteric and difficult to understand.

  Song Wuque frowned slightly.

  What is transcendent sanctification?

  That is, above the transcendent, it is a saint!

  It's just that Song Wuque has never heard of anyone entering the Holy Land. It seems that the saint has long since disappeared in the long river of history.

  So, do the two saints that Kong Kong said have the same meaning as what Song Wuque understood?

...................... 0

  Liekong continued: "The cave is the Longmen Grottoes, located on the shore of Yishui River more than ten miles south of my temple. Because the two mountains are opposite to each other, it is like a queer, so it is also called 'Yique'. There are large and small shrines on the cliffs on both sides. The grottoes stretch for miles and are breathtaking.”

  Song Wuque was still in deep contemplation, and then Liaokong said in surprise, "Yes! Why did the donor Song come here this time, the old man has long forgotten."

  Song Wuque came back to his senses, and secretly complained about the old fox in his heart.

  Contrary to Kong's expectations, Song Wuque did not ask any further questions, but said, "I also forgot, thank you for your pointers, and leave."

  Having said that, he left the hall.

  Song Wuque stepped out of the door of the Abbot's room and took a deep breath of fresh air.

  The misty drizzle just began to fall from the sky, and no one was seen.

  Jingnian Temple is worthy of being the most prosperous Buddhist temple under the Great Zen Temple, and it contains the meaning of Zen Buddhism everywhere.

  Empty is indeed a bit of a line.
