The driver's words were a bit heartbroken, but they were telling the truth.

The current economic level of the Tang Dynasty has become the second largest in the world, and it is almost about to catch up with the global hegemony - the hybrid country.

People's living standards have improved significantly, material desires have been greatly satisfied, and hedonism has begun to grow and rampant.

The entertainment industry is in short supply. The huge market space is there, driven by interests, and capital is concentrated towards entertainment, which has led to the prosperity of the entertainment industry in the Tang Dynasty. The status of singers and stars has risen. A third-rate celebrity travel style is comparable to that of an international politician.

Under the long-term rendering of these singers and stars, the values ​​of young people in the Tang Dynasty have been distorted, and scientists have to be one head short in front of entertainment stars.

On campus, when you ask about the dreams of teenagers, it is a star dream to open your mouth and keep your mouth shut.

Celebrities have become the fastest profession to gain fame and fortune and the most glorious profession.

Scientists in the Tang Dynasty began to have faults in talent relay. Even if fresh blood is injected, they are unwilling to invest in the kind of "lifelong research is just for one truth" and "all their studies have been studied for a lifetime, but the results have only proved the correctness of a certain definition in the cornerstone of science." Even if they find that definition is wrong, they have been spent all their lives and are unable to wait for its correction.

No one wants to do such a thankless thing.

Young Blood only wants to earn the hottest money at the moment - fashion technology, which contributes to enriching entertainment content and broadening the field of entertainment, spares no effort, and continues one after another.

"I regret it now. When I was studying, I didn't focus on talent cultivation, such as singing. If I use one-tenth of the energy to treat the regular class, I will not be able to make the sounds so I am now. Thinking about it now, I keep preparing for mathematics, physics and chemistry while studying, it's really not a good job!"

Liu Bang said seriously and sadly.

Chen Hong couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "Senior Brother Liu, are you also called being poor? He is in the staffing department, but he often takes out the business funds from outside and works in two ways, making it more comfortable than us."

The second half of the journey ended happily with Liu Bang and the taxi driver's jokes, complaints and Chen Hong's participation.

Longquan Temple has arrived.

Like most temples, it is located in the deep mountains and takes the scenery, which seems to be a decisive condition for the selection of the temple.

"Did you find that there are temples in famous mountains and resorts. If you are on a business trip, in a different place, and are unfamiliar with the place, if you want to hunt for a scenic spot, just find a temple. A temple is the signpost for a scenic spot, and you can find one at a time."

After getting off the car, Liu Bang led Tang Qi and Chen Hong to the artificially excavated stone steps of Longquan Temple.

It seemed like the first time I came to Longquan Temple, Liu Bang said with emotion.

"What else?" Tang Qi lowered his head and walked, thinking, and laughed, "Where can we attract people to become monks and avoid the world without occupying the scenery of famous places? Generally speaking, people who go out travel are people with too many worries. When they go out, they want to breathe, relax and release pressure. Those who have a little taste will pursue spiritual pleasure, such as purifying the mind, etc. - As a result, they suddenly encounter such a quiet and beautiful place, food, accommodation and temples to solve it. What's more clever is that they see the solemn Buddha statues in their eyes, tall, majestic, rich images, and shock the soul. They suddenly have a kind of spiritual support, so they are impulsive and determined to come out: I will become a monk here!"

"You mean, temples or those who rely on psychological warfare to become monks?"

Liu Bang laughed out loud.

"It sounds a bit psychological?" Chen Hong was stunned, echoed and smiled, and then said, "It seems that Tang Qi has a bad impression of temples and monks."

Chen Hong was exposed to the relevant Buddhist field because of her brother Chen Chong.

Chen Hong, who has a vicious habit, has difficulty treating heart disease. At Chen Chong's suggestion, he started to come into contact with Buddhism. When talking about his impression of Buddhism, he was not rejected, but he was not very fond of it.

——Clean obsession is the most stubborn mental illness. I heard Chen Chong say that Buddhism is the most appropriate prescription for mental illness. The heart mentioned in the Heart Sutra of Prajna is "not dirty or clean" and there is no filth or non-dirty, so Chen Hong tried to come into contact with Buddhism with the mentality of being a dead horse as a living horse.

"Forgive him, don't forget that he is a scientist, a guardian and persistent of the cornerstone of science. Originally, religious style is difficult to stand firm in the scientific community, so what kind of good can Tang Qi have in his heart like this?"

Liu Bang took the opportunity to complain about Tang Qi's persistence again.

"Come on, I don't have that mind and can't tolerate places where there are scientific conflicts. Although the religious system cannot be explained scientifically, it also has one advantage, that is, it solves problems, emotional problems, spiritual dependence and spiritual comfort that science cannot solve. Science cannot solve the problem of why people have troubles, love, hate, and ethical disputes. Religious beliefs can solve it, especially the spiritual fear brought by people's fear of death, as well as the huge trauma in the heart and the huge regrets about life and death. These are all things that science cannot solve, but religion can solve it."

Not everyone cares about science. With a group of scientists here, the general public can only enjoy the fruits of their success; but birth, old age, sickness and death are things that everyone cannot avoid, and they have to face in the end, so there will still be spiritual beliefs.

"Look, scientists are scientists, they are so professional."

Liu Bang kept advocating Tang Qi in a teasing tone, eliminating the embarrassment that the two of them almost had a falling out in the car just now.

"What Liu said to you, it seems like you are not a scientific researcher."

Tang Qi fought back.

"Look, Tang Qi finally felt ashamed of being a scientist and did not dare to claim himself as a scientist. He changed his words to be a scientific researcher."

The stone steps that were nearly two kilometers away were completed while the three of them were talking and laughing.

Ascend to the last stone steps, a small square comes towards you.

The shade is set against the backdrop of the valley, the sound of birds echoes, the mountain wind is always there, the emptiness and quietness make the three people who have just escaped from the hustle and bustle of the city feel as if they are out of the world to avoid leisure.

At the end of the stone steps is a white marble sculpture with stone pillars on both sides, one large and two small in rows of buildings.

The first couplet of the stone pillar on the left door: There are clearly six interests in the dream.

The lower couplet of the stone pillar on the right door: After waking up, there is no big thousand.

Zhengdamen plaque: Longquan Temple.

The hand-engraved strokes are thick, powerful, and very beautiful.

Standing in front of the mountain gate, you can see Longquan Temple from afar, contrasting with the peaks of the mountains, the peaks look like human heads, one peak, two peaks, three peaks... like hundreds, thousands, ten thousand, and countless shrouded Karao heads.

In the small square, there are several large banyan trees that have been around for hundreds of years. The crowns are like umbrellas, and the thick branches of human body hang down the whiskers like thorns, one hanging, two hanging, three hanging... like a hundred hands, thousands of hands, ten thousand hands, and countless mother-dra hands.

Under the big banyan tree, several monks were cleaning the fallen leaves.

One of the monks, tall and burly, was particularly eye-catching because of his deep eyes, his nose, blue eyes, and white skin without blood. He turned out to be a colorless person.

"I didn't expect that there would be foreign friends here in this deep mountains and forests. It seems that the name of Longquan Temple is already famous overseas?"

Tang Qi was very shocked.

...This foreign friend traveled thousands of miles and came across the ocean to become a monk in the Tang Dynasty. What kind of spirit is this?

The white man who was sweeping the floor heard Tang Qi's voice and turned his head, intersecting Tang Qi's eyes, then was obviously stunned for a moment, and quickly bent down to continue sweeping the floor.

Why did I feel like I have seen him somewhere? Tang Qi was stunned for a moment, but he couldn't remember it no matter how hard he thought about it.

"He is Senior Brother Sim and has been a monk in the temple for more than twenty years."

After Liu Bang finished speaking, he shouted "Senior Brother Sim" to the white man.

The white man who was sweeping the floor stood up with a long broom, standing two meters tall. He saluted at the Liu Bang and the other two, very respectfully, and then continued to lower his head to clean the fallen leaves.

"Senior Brother Sim was deeply taught by the Abbot, and like all fellow practitioners here, he respects everyone. In the teachings of the Buddha, everyone in the world may be the biological parents of the previous life. Parents are like Buddhas, Buddhas are like parents, and respecting every sentient being means respecting parents and respecting Buddha."

While explaining, Liu Gang led Tang Qi and Chen Hong past the banyan tree, and entered the courtyard while greeting several other monks, recognized the direction, and then walked towards the "Dharma Courtyard".

Bodhidharma came to the east with Zen thought, "one flower blooms five leaves, and the fruit will naturally come true." He became the first ancestor of Dongtu Zen Buddhism. He was a figure of the mountain-breaking monster level, which was extremely important.

Generally, the places marked with his name and room number are also important places.

"This DAMO Academy is the scientific research place of Longquan Temple."

The Liu Bang walked to the gate of the branch first and was about to take Tang Qi. Chen Hong in. Suddenly someone came out from inside. When he saw the Liu Bang and the other three, he immediately shouted: "Stay here, this is the main site of the Zen room and it is not open to the outside."

"Oh, little master, let's find Master Zhichan. Is he in there?"

Liu Bang asked.

"Master Zhizhan is inside, but he is busy. Otherwise, you can go to the reading room next to the hall and wait for Master Zhizhan to finish his work, and I will call you again?"

The little master pointed to the Main Hall in the middle of the temple and suggested that the three of them say.

"Then...well, thank you, senior brother, Amitabha!"

Liu Bang thought about it and had to accept the suggestion, and then saluted the little master with his hands together.

The little master also clasped his hands and bowed: "Thank you, Senior Brother, Amitabha". Then he ran away.

Liu Gang led Tang Qi and Chen Hong to the hall where the big Buddha statue was located.

Tang Qi turned around and saw the 15 or 16-year-old master running to the small square in the front yard, called the senior brother Sim, and ran back to the DAMO Academy.

Senior Brother Sim put down his broom and followed with great strides, as if there was something urgent to do, according to the situation.

The reading room is a reading room, but the display and display are scriptures, as well as classics annotated by famous and accomplished masters.

Tang Qi flipped through it and couldn't stand it at all.

"I feel like I look at the meeting minutes. Wherever the meeting is held, who are the people who come, and the number of people present is easy to formalize. Then I speak one by one, and Buddha answers one by one."

Tang Qi frowned and complained.

"Yes, yes, just introducing people who came to the meeting, took up a lot of space, and also told them what they did before the meeting, such as begging, even their teachers had just eaten, washed their feet, and sat cross-legged in the seat and sat cross-legged on them... So I never read scriptures, which tests the patience of readers. I don't have that patience, and I have no fate and no good roots."

Liu Bang agreed.

"I think they are so funny. Before each student asks questions, he puts a high hat on the teacher, and then is very polite. He kowtows and bows three times. He also puts his head on the teacher's feet to express his words to the Buddha... Oh my God, if I do this, I'm afraid I'll get goosebumps early."

Chen Hong, who had a vigilance, couldn't help laughing.

"Especially, you should expose your chest and arms and show your pious respect. Chen Hong, you must not be pious enough if you wear it so strongly..."

After a while the three of them joked, the little master ran over:
Chapter completed!
