In the early morning, Pufa Temple is bathed in the brilliant morning glow. Looking from a distance, it is magnificent and awe-inspiring.
Against the background of the slowly rising sun, the entire temple seems to be flowing with golden light, covering it with soft light, sacred and solemn, and making people admire it.
Wang Xuan also became serious. Regardless of whether he had faith or not, he did not want to be too casual in a place like this, especially since he came today to seek the rare feather fossil.
It's still very early, but there are already some people coming to offer incense. Incense is always strong here and it is an important place for Buddhism.
when!
The big bell in Pufa Temple rang, loud and long, and the sound could be heard for dozens of miles, even in Ancheng.
In this early morning, accompanied by the rising sun, the sound of the bells is distant and very artistic, as if it can purify all the troubles in the world, make people feel peaceful, and escape from the world of mortals.
Wang Xuan stood in the distance, looking at the temple in the morning glow. He couldn't help but nod solemnly. Buddhism has endured through all dynasties and generations. It really makes sense.
The sound of bells, the curling incense, and the tiles glowing in the morning glow. Just this solemn, sacred and solemn atmosphere can make people calm down.
"A thousand-year-old ancient temple deserves its reputation!" He was very serious. Today he came here to pursue the legacy of the previous sages. He was very pious and hoped to see the miraculous things left by the great virtues.
It was still a little early, so Wang Xuan was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, he walked around the entire temple. It really occupies a large area and is very grand.
Outside the temple, there are many ancient trees, ranging from thousand-year-old pines to hundreds of years old ginkgo trees. In the morning, there is still a light white mist, and when illuminated by the sun, they appear faintly colorful, making it even more unusual.
"There is a mysterious factor!" Wang Xuan walked outside the temple and immediately felt a different atmosphere when passing through these thousand-year-old trees.
There was a sudden wave of excitement in his heart, and he was quite looking forward to it. There were many legends about this ancient temple with rich historical heritage, all related to eminent monks.
Over the past thousand years, it is said that there have been two Bodhisattvas in physical form, and both of them have been preserved, which is extremely difficult.
The so-called physical Bodhisattva means that eminent monks and great virtues practice rigorously, have a pure heart, and fully display their potential, leaving behind an indestructible physical body. They may die facing a wall, or sit in a vat, and their indestructible physical appearance can be seen in future generations.
Wang Xuan had visited the interior location and had some thoughts about the remains of such eminent monks. He wanted to see them with his own eyes or touch them up close to verify them one by one.
In addition, the number of eminent monks who left relics in Pufa Temple was even greater. Whether they were real relics or stones that could be explained scientifically, they were all worth getting close to.
In Wang Xuan's view, if there is a real relic, it must be similar to the feather fossil, which contains the mysterious substance brought by the great master from the interior location.
Wang Xuan walked around for a week and felt that the trip was definitely worthwhile. He felt an inexplicable feeling among the ancient trees outside. What would happen inside? He was looking forward to it.
As the sun rose, more and more people entered the temple, but it was not crowded. Wang Xuan entered slowly and took a look at the large copper stove in the courtyard. The incense inside seemed to have never been extinguished. The incense ash was so thick that it almost covered the temple.
The copper furnace is filled.
He grinned. The two eminent monks invited by Old Chen last time probably took the incense ashes from this copper furnace, mixed them with water, and then sprinkled them on him.
He walked over and offered a stick of incense to express his feelings.
Generally speaking, the architectural layout of the temples is similar, starting from the Shanmen Hall, then the Heavenly King Hall, then the Mahavira Hall, and then the Bodhisattva Hall, followed by the Dharma Hall and the Sutra Storehouse.
"It's not simple. Is this low-key and restrained?" Wang Xuan frowned, because since he came in, it is difficult to sense the aura of the mysterious factor anymore.
He looked up and saw that the Main Hall was very tall, with carved beams and painted buildings inside, it was magnificent and magnificent, and it enshrined the shining golden Buddha III.
It's just quite strange that in such an important place of Buddhism, he still can't sense the mysterious factor, which makes him frown and feel very puzzled.
Wang Xuan could only sigh that Buddhism has superb methods, and some secrets were probably beyond the understanding of an outsider like him. He could only find them step by step. He was not in a hurry, and went all the way to explore the Pufa Temple.
However, he walked through all the Buddhist temples and searched everywhere, but he didn't even sense any mysterious factors. What's going on?
Wang Xuan is a little doubtful. Is there really a cave here? It can prevent the mysterious substance from leaking out. If that is the case, Buddhism's methods are somewhat amazing.
After all, this is no longer ancient times, but a new era of splendid technological civilization. A temple that can inherit this secret method is not necessarily worse than the ancestral temple of Buddhism.
"I really don't believe in evil. I don't believe that I can't find any clues!"
Wang Xuan persevered and went around all the places allowed in the temple, but he found nothing, no clues.
He was a little stunned. Could it be that there was something wrong with his perception and that he was suppressed by some mysterious force in the thousand-year-old temple?
However, he sensed carefully that he was extremely energetic and could hear the chirping of birds in the dense forest outside the temple from a very long distance away.
For this reason, he even made a special trip and returned to the woodland with thousand-year-old trees, where he indeed captured the thin mysterious substance again.
"This thousand-year-old temple, the centerpiece of Buddhism, is so awe-inspiring!" Wang Xuan sighed as he walked into the temple again.
This time, he used his strong and agile skills to go to some closed areas, and even went deep into the location of the pagoda. This is where eminent monks of all ages have stored Buddha bones and relics, and they are usually buried in the underground palace under the pagoda.
However, he still found nothing in this area and felt nothing.
Wang Xuan is a bit confused. In this era, is Pufa Temple still unfathomable?
Later, he even demolished two floor tiles to see if there was something else underground, but found nothing.
"There's something weird, there's something wrong!" Wang Xuan thought, a little absent-mindedly, and wandered around the temple for the purpose of strolling.
On this day, he had been exploring carefully, and did not leave until the stars appeared in the sky, because he really found nothing in the temple.
Wang Xuan was unwilling to give in and continued to wander outside the temple, wanting to observe in the night. He wanted to find a high ground to overlook the thousand-year-old temple, hoping to find some clues.
While walking outside, he noticed something unusual. When he came to a high ground, he found a looming pool in the distance with a thin mysterious factor leaking out, which he sensed.
His mind was shaken, and he could capture the mysterious substance at a relatively far distance, which proved that there was something special there, and there might be a major discovery.
When he got closer, he determined that there was something special here. The water pool was close to the stone wall, and the mysterious factor was revealed from the stone wall. It was far more mysterious than the thousand-year-old temple.
Wang Xuan carefully explored this area, but was a little regretful that no feather fossils were found. The mysterious factors were evenly distributed on the rock wall and were not dense enough.
Soon he understood what was going on. In ancient times, eminent monks sat here all year round, facing the wall, and the mysterious substances left behind soaked into the stone wall.
Unfortunately, the quantity is not very sufficient, and there is no such thing as a feather fossil.
Wang Xuan jumped up, rushed up the stone wall, came to the top, found a suitable place for meditation and sat cross-legged. He thought that the ancient monks should have sat in this place in the past.
Then, he closed his eyes and silently used the methods of the pre-Qin alchemists, trying to take a chance here.
His perception became extremely keen, and he noticed that the mysterious factors evenly distributed in the stone wall were stirring and gathering towards him.
But unfortunately, this was the same as his initial judgment. The mysterious factor was not strong enough and it did not form a strange object.
However, he did not stop, and continued to sit cross-legged, working on his root method, and absorbing this rare substance. After all, it was of great benefit to nourish the body and spirit.
It is difficult to find such a thing in this world.
I don't know how long it took, but the mysterious substance in the stone wall became so thin that it could no longer be captured. Wang Xuan slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and prepared to stand up.
However, he felt horrified and felt something strange around him. When he absorbed the mysterious substance, it seemed that something beyond imagination was attached to it.
In an instant, he stood up directly, with a bad premonition rising in his heart.
"Isn't it possible that not long after I sent away a fairy, I was tricked again and attracted a giant Buddha?" Wang Xuan was furious. His perception now is sharper than last time. After all, his strength has improved and his mental power has become stronger.
Exuberant.
If something goes wrong again this time, he feels the need to rethink the truth behind his transformation into immortality. Perhaps there is a different explanation and another possibility.
"They...didn't necessarily fail back then, and they might appear again?!" Wang Xuan had some very shocking speculation in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became. He felt that there were secrets in this world that ordinary people could not imagine.
, if true, it may be earth-shattering.
He was very uneasy, and quickly left here and rushed towards Ancheng. He wanted to confirm first whether there was really another old senior beside him, with immortals and Buddhas by his side!
Thank you: The strong wind blows and blows endlessly. Thank you for your support, leader.
