Nightfall

> The wind and snow were not angry, the road was not obstructed, and with the slowly falling snow, an old monk holding a tin rod and wearing a hat slowly walked out of the wilderness, entered the lunar kingdom, and walked to a not high mountain. [m unlimited upgrade]

The old monk walked very slowly, slower than the snow falling, and even seemed to be slower than the snow melted. His heels in straw sandals seemed to stick to the ground, and he seemed to lift the entire ground when lifting his feet. Tear it up, so every step is very difficult.

He walked on the snow, the snow layer was torn up; walking on the muddy ground, the black muddy ground was torn up; walking on the bluestone paved mountain road, the stone surface was torn up. The mountain road covered by shallow snow seems to have no change. In fact, the deep structure of the snow has been torn up and down, making a very slight rustling sound that humans can't hear. Even the entire mountain peak follows the old monk's walking Moaning very low.

Animals hiding deep in the mountains and sheltering from the winter can hear this sound, the wolf licking the lump of dirty hair raises his head in alarm, and the magpie hiding in the nest looks up in horror, looking at the distance, trying to chew The bobcat wearing the buckskin of a frozen deer made a scream.

The old monk walked to the top of the mountain and looked south.

Tens of miles from the mountain to the south, the snow stopped, and most of the sky in the Lunar Kingdom was not covered with snow clouds. The Chaoyang City, the capital city of the Lunar Kingdom, thousands of miles away, was covered by thick clouds, thousands of miles away. Looking at each other, the extremely thick cloud is like a flower born alone in the infinite Buddha Kingdom.

The old monk silently looked at the clouds thousands of miles away, and on the old face that was not covered by the shadow of the hat, slowly showed a very complex look, and then his hand holding the tin rod was slightly tight, and the tin rod was gently inserted into the body Between the rocks on the top of the peak, facing the distance, said: "People are under the clouds."

The tin rod touched the peak rock as if a hot knife had stabbed into the snowdrift, and silently went deep into the stone. The rod of the tin rod made a slight brittle sound, and the old monk's words flew towards the Buddha in all directions.

The old monk looked at the distant Chaoyang city. Tao: "For this catastrophe in the world, for the advent of the end of the Dharma era, Buddha Nirvana left a lot of instruments such as a chessboard net bell before pointing out the path for Buddhist disciples, but you, Brother, refuse to take the path left by Buddha Why do you go your own way? "

After standing silently for a long time at the peak, the old monk sighed: "Brother, you were the Qishan. I didn't understand the truth. After reciting from Qi Nian, I realized that the original meaning of the branch was just the branch. How difficult it is. My Buddha is compassionate, how can I bear to see the world take a risky path? "

After this sentence, the old monk pulled the tin rod out of Xueyan. [m 我] Slowly descending towards the peak, looking at the direction should be ready to go to Chaoyang City, but in such a slow and difficult way, it took more than a hundred days to walk from Tiankeng Xuankong Temple to the edge of the wasteland, it still needs How long will it take to get under that cloud?

"If you go astray, then I have to take a shortcut."

The monk walked out of the range of the peak and stopped, reaching for a tin stick next to the rugged and muddy mountain road, and the movement seemed to be recruiting. It's just that in such remote mountain peaks, where can there be a carriage?

This winter, Chaoyang City, the lunar capital city, was continuously in cloudy weather. Even after two snowfalls, the thick clouds above the city never dispersed.

In the world, wind and snow are normal things. Even a hundred days of obscurity is not difficult to resemble, so at the beginning, this cloud did not attract anyone's attention.

Until the winter became deeper and the second snow cleared, the countryside outside Chaoyang suddenly cleared. It was clear and clear, but it was still covered with snow in Chaoyang City. Only let people in the city have some confusion.

If you have any questions, ask for solutions. Once you start a purposeful observation, the Lunar Kingdom and ordinary residents finally noticed the strangeness of the thick cloud in the sky. Some people remembered that the cloud above the head began one day in late autumn. It never dissipated again, more people noticed that in the clear sky outside the city, there are still clouds floating every day, gathering into the clouds above the city.

The clouds shrouded the Chaoyang City and refused to disperse, and it became thicker and thicker every day, and the area became larger and larger. This situation is too strange. From autumn, the Buddhist temples of the Lunar Kingdom preached the advent of the Pluto's daughter. The court's sea catchment text has proved that the Pluto's daughter is in the Lunar Kingdom. Uneasiness and fear.

People in Chaoyang City naturally produced a lot of speculation and uneasiness. That cloud became the focus of everyone's observation, and even became the main content of the lulls that the nationals of the lunar nations meet every day.

"Did you see the cloud yesterday?"

"You can see it every day when you lift your neck, but also use it to see it?"

"I am a new cloud floating from the outside yesterday. Didn't you think that this cloud is much thicker today?"

"Did not see it. I went to rent a carriage yesterday. The new cloud yesterday was quite big?"

"It's very big. When I saw it, it was very close. It was bigger than the palace."

"That's not true, but I have seen a new cloud from the east a few days ago. Gee, that momentum, the spirit, it feels like a great army of Tang people."

"Your metaphor is exquisite, then the daughter of Pluto is not just a Chinese."

"Don't mention to me the daughter of Pluto, I dare."

"You're not guts, you're attentive. Is it foreseeable to rent a carriage?"

"You can't walk, this cloud is so weird, I can't stand it if it falls down like a stone someday."

...

...

Snow cloud destroys the city.

People in the city look up every day for a long time, and there is less and less cervical spondylosis; many people begin to pray, the smell of incense is filled in the streets, and the incense money in major temples is getting more and more; Preparing to leave Chaoyang City and temporarily avoid some days with relatives in the countryside, the business of carts and horses became more and more prosperous.

The tense atmosphere grew thicker with the incense burning, people panicked and began to pray to all things that they believed to be effective, regardless of stones or trees, the master in the temple is naturally the best choice, so in just a few days, I don't know how many sisters in the government were scourge.

There are countless buddhist temples in Lunlun, of which the most famous is the Seventy-two Taiyan Temple in Yanyu. The White Pagoda Temple in Chaoyang City has an unquestionable status in the Seventy-two Temple. In the current state of panic, the White Pagoda Temple Incense is naturally the most prosperous, and believers who come to pray every day will soon squeeze this Buddhist temple.

The big pagodas in the White Pagoda Temple are crowded with believers, and even countless people have kneeled outside the temple. Dozens of believers kneeled respectfully in front of a stone step outside the temple door and kept knocking on their heads. .

That stone step attracted so many Buddhist believers to bow down, because the abbot of Baita Temple picked a baby boy with a deep Buddha's fate on that stone step in the early morning. The boy was the famous Dao stone master, Therefore, believers believe that the stone nature of Master Daoshi still remains on the stone steps, which can bring Fuze.

Looking at the scene, Ning Que shook his head, took Sang Sang's cool hand, squeezed through the crowded crowd, and walked into the Baita Temple, thinking about the Qu Ni Ma Di and Bao Shu private money. Qu, giving birth to the illegitimate child of Daoshi, is naturally sent to the Baita Temple, and what is the relationship with such things as Buddhism?

Sang Sang was wearing a light-colored cotton jacket and a thick scarf, covering half of his face. I do n’t know when the hair was cut very short, and it was divided diagonally on the forehead. It looked very refreshing, like a playful Boy, do n’t just look at the portrait, even if she ’s seen her, it ’s hard to recognize her.

"Maybe that stone step really brings Fuze."

Sang Sang's voice penetrated the scarf and appeared a bit buzzing, like a stuffy nose after a cold.

Ning Que smiled slightly and said softly: "Even if there is Fuze, it can't fall on us. Don't forget that I cut Dao Shi's head with a knife in front of the Bao'an shop in Chang'an City."

Sang Sang Dao said: "I don't know if we have done too many bad things, so I will be retaliated. I knew that I had to learn Dharma, and I shouldn't be so disrespectful to Buddhist masters."

Ning Que said with a smile: "The day before you met Daoshi, you ran away from home for the first time. I was in a very bad mood. I was angry all night on the edge of Yanming Lake. He came to provoke me. Naturally, it was death, or did you not it is good."

Sang Sang whispered: "So I was retaliated."

"If there is any retribution, Xiahou needs me to kill, it should have been collected by the Buddha. No matter Daomen or Buddhism, the title of unbelievers will always be mentioned in our hospital. In their view, there is no belief, no awe, life It ’s difficult to be enriched, and it ’s hard to get real peace in my heart. However, in our school, belief and worship are not originally a thing, and the fear of the word in awe needs to be studied carefully. "

Ning Que thought of the believers who had seen more than one bow before seeing outside the temple ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Thinking of the picture of the family next to the courtyard burning a sacrificial offering to a tree at home every day, saying: "Like a moon wheel The country is naturally a country of faith, but there are too many beliefs and too much fear of the unknown. What kind of faith is this? "

In a quiet gossip, the two had walked to the main hall deep in the White Pagoda Temple. The Buddha Hall was still full of people. Hundreds of believers knelt on the futon and listened to a monk in front of him.

Ning Que walked into the temple with Sang Sang, and quietly found an empty futon. The believer who was robbed of the futon was still listening attentively at the previous moment, and later found himself standing behind the pillar. He could not help but be shocked and speechless, but he did not dare to yell, for fear of being judged by a monk in the temple that he was not religious enough, he would have to end.

Sang Sang knelt down on the futon, folded his hands in front of him, closed his eyes, and began to study the Buddhist scriptures. The expression was quiet and pious. The hair was slightly darker because of the short cut, and he slowly flicked it on the forehead. .

She didn't listen to the monk's chanting from the White Pagoda Temple, but just silently chanted a scripture in her heart. She didn't learn the solemn golden Buddha in front of the temple, but the Buddha in her heart.
