Seven hundred and twenty-two: Daming Temple

Mrs. Zhou was helpless, since Jia Jing said so, let’s do it!

Jia Jing has been prepared for a long time. At this time, she is waiting for Mrs. Zhou to nod. When Mrs. Zhou says it, she just does it!

So Jia Jing immediately arranged for everyone to prepare the carriage. Daiyu hesitated for a moment. She originally wanted to deal with family matters in the afternoon, but Jia Jing asked them to go out to play and she didn't want to miss this opportunity...

After only a brief hesitation for two or three seconds, Daiyu immediately decided to fish for the day today! Oh, I can handle official business anytime, but if I leave Yangzhou and return to Shenjing, then I can go shopping with Jia Jing to grow up on my own.

The chances in this city are very slim!

So Daiyu chose to go out with Jia Jing without thinking too much. When she walked to the door, Daiyu slapped her head: "Oh! I almost forgot someone!"

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Zhou looked at Daiyu in confusion: "Forgot someone? Who is it?" Daiyu smiled and said: "Of course it's about my sister. I forgot that my sister is also living in the house now. We have to go out, don't we?"

Why don’t you ask Sister Tan if she wants to come along?”

So Daiyu asked Mrs. Zhou to sit down for a while and went to invite Tan Yunxian herself. Tan Yunxian didn't show much interest after knowing that Daiyu and the others were going out to play...

She is actually a stay-at-home girl who doesn't like to go out very much. Her biggest hobby is studying medical books. Therefore, although the Tan family does not have as many constraints on women as others, Tan Yunxian still doesn't go out much except for attending medical appointments.

.

But she couldn't resist Daiyu's warm invitation, and Mr. Tan was also smiling and said that it would be nice to let her go for a walk. Tan Yunxian was reluctant to kill her, but Daiyu said that it would be Jia Jing's escort, so there would be no problem.

, then reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Tan Yunxian had treated Daiyu a long time ago, so the relationship between the two was very good. They were one of the few good friends of Daiyu besides relatives like the Jia sisters, so Tan Yunxian did not particularly reject Daiyu.

Yu, that’s why I agreed to go out with Daiyu. As for whether there is a desire to meet someone, it’s unknown...

Jia Jing has been very busy recently, so she has hardly cared about Lin Ruhai's physical condition. Naturally, Tan Yunxian doesn't see Jia Jing very much. However, Tan Yunxian has an indifferent nature, so she doesn't miss him particularly much. Most of the time, she doesn't miss him.

When I was busy with Lin Ruhai's illness, I forgot about Jia Jing, and I only had random thoughts when I was free!

After the two left, Tan Yifeng walked out from behind the screen with his arms crossed and said, "Grandpa, tell me... why did Ninghou have to ask his little sister to go with him? I looked at Ninghou and it seemed

This Miss Lin is very unusual. In this case, it makes no sense to provoke the little girl?"

Hearing this, Tan Fu glanced at Tan Yifeng with a smile and said, "Why are you worried about your sister's affairs?" Tan Yifeng choked, but still said stubbornly: "How can you not worry about this? You also saw that Ning

Hou is like that..."

Tan Fu sneered, shook his head and was about to walk in. Tan Yifeng hurriedly followed and said: "What if, I mean what if, what if the little girl falls in love with Ning Hou..."

Tan Yifeng waved his hand and said: "Anyway, I don't think it's appropriate. I don't want my little sister to marry into such a big family. You know my little sister's temperament!"

Tan Fu slowly sat down on the rocking chair, closed his eyes and hummed a Suzhou tune, as if he didn't take Tan Yifeng's words to heart at all.

Tan Yifeng stood aside helplessly and said: "I think Zong Qing is very good. We have known each other since childhood. We are family friends. We have known each other for so many years. Zong Qing and I were classmates at that time. I know his character.

!"

Tan Fu was given a headache by Tan Yifeng, so he opened his eyes and looked at Tan Yifeng impatiently: "Are you getting married or is your sister getting married?"

Tan Yifeng opened his mouth, but was immediately blocked and unable to speak...

Tan Fu sneered and said: "You are very lenient. If you have the skills to teach your son well, your little sister will make the decision on her own! What does it have to do with you..."

Tan Yifeng had no choice but to shake his head and walk in. Obviously, the atmosphere in the Tan family was relatively relaxed, so even though Tan Yunxian was sixteen years old this year, no one mentioned her marriage. Look at this.

, actually wants Yun-hyun to make the decision himself!

The reason why Tan Yifeng brought this up today is also because of this. Outsiders may not be able to see it, but family members who know Tan Yunxian's temperament can hardly see it. Even his son, the reckless little brat, can see it.

Some clues came out...

Tan Yunxian seems to be more interested in Jia Jing!

A kid like Tan Kai must feel that having an uncle like Ning Hou is very impressive, but Tan Yifeng is no longer a kid, and someone like Jia Jing can really be suitable for a little sister...

Not long after Jia Jing ordered him to go down, Lin Xingzong called someone to say that everything had been arranged. When Jia Jing heard this, he went out and ordered the soldiers who had been prepared long ago.

He asked someone to deliver the carriage to the second gate of Yanzheng Yamen. After helping Mrs. Zhou and Daiyu get on the carriage, Jia Jing glanced at Qingfeng with sharp eyes. Qingfeng nodded secretly. Jia Jing then got on the horse and took the people with her.

Go in the direction of Daming Temple!

"Set off!"

Jia Jing's motorcade started slowly, but she didn't know that just around the corner of Yanzheng Yamen, a man wearing coarse cloth and wearing straw sandals squatted on the ground and looked at the direction in which Jia Jing and others' carriage disappeared.

Lifting the straw hat on his head...

Daming Temple was built during the period of Emperor Xiaowu of Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties. Emperor Xiaowu's reign was Daming, so this temple is also called Daming Temple. However, everyone should be aware of the nature of urine during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the emperors were replaced faster than

Children are always busy with diapers...

It should be said that dynasties change more frequently than the emperor!

So soon Daming Temple faced a problem. Its name was too sensitive... so it changed many names during its rise and fall. For example, in the Sui Dynasty, it was called Qiling Temple and also called West Temple.

During the dynasty, it was called Shengping Temple. During the previous dynasty, it was called Daming Temple. Then it was destroyed...

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After frequent name changes, such a thousand-year-old temple was still not preserved. During the battle with the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, the garrison who was ordered to guard Yangzhou City fought with the Mongolian Yuan army here.

An extremely brutal tug-of-war broke out!

To summarize, at about 8 o'clock tonight, without cavalry, Daming Temple will have a 1V1 passionate fight. In the end, both of them are furious, throwing away their long weapons, and even losing their armor. It's just fun.

No one wants his life!

They got what they wanted, Daming Temple was ruined enough...

Most of the monks at that time chose to escape, and some chose to live and die with the temple. They even formed a monk army to help the Yan army under the organization of the abbot monk at the time!

But the war was so cruel. After two days and two nights of fierce fighting, in the end, although the Yan army won, it was a tragic victory!

The Buddhist niche in the main hall was burned down in the tug-of-war, and not a single one of the monk soldiers was left alive. The officers and soldiers left, leaving behind a ruins and corpses all over the ground...

On that day, blood flowed from the Daming Temple to the streets outside, and the golden body of Buddha shed tears! A thousand-year-old temple fell into complete silence!

Although there are still many monks and soldiers left to support the operation of Daming Temple, they do not have the ability to rebuild it, so it can only be abandoned like this.

It has been abandoned for a long time, and it will be difficult to rebuild it again!

The monks have no money and not enough manpower. The Daming Temple is very large and it will definitely cost a lot of money to rebuild it. However, there are countless temples in Yangzhou city!

Rich businessmen all go to temples that are popular with people to add glory to them. Who would close such a temple in ruins? Maybe others will think you are unlucky!

But today, the monks of Daming Temple seem to have seen an opportunity...

As usual, only a dozen or so believers came to the temple in the early morning, and almost all of them were volunteers who lived nearby and were helping in the temple.

Almost all the monks in Daming Temple are skinny, and without exception, their large gray-white robes are patched with various patches, washed white, and swaying in the morning wind!

Almost all the monks in Daming Temple are young monks, because few old monks can live long in this environment...

The chief monk of Daming Temple passed away just a few days ago. Since then, there has never been a monk over thirty years old in Daming Temple.

Since there is really no incense in Daming Temple, many of the main halls are even locked, just to save some fragrant oil for offering in front of Sakyamuni Buddha in the only surviving main hall...

So the Daming Temple is very big, but at the same time it is also very small. The big one is almost in ruins, the small one is the range where the monks can move, and behind the temple, there are grains and vegetables grown by the monks themselves, and even chickens.

Ducks don't eat meat, but the eggs they lay can be sold for food.

The monks are almost all self-sufficient. Except for selling eggs, they are all done by volunteers, because the monks cannot touch money and do not want to sell chickens to others... All of this is a last resort for survival.

.

Therefore, in most cases, after completing morning and evening classes, the monks will work according to the arrangements of the presiding monk. Who will serve the fields, who will clean the main hall, and who will be the guest monk are all arranged.

The monks here are not very old, but almost all have their own problems. They are either lame, have bad eyesight, or are mute. Therefore, Zhike Monk can only be one of the few monks who are still healthy.

Do.

Because few young people are willing to become a monk. Even if they are to become a monk, there are so many big temples in Yangzhou. Where should I go? Do I have to go to the Daming Temple to endure hardships?

Therefore, most of the monks in Daming Temple today are abandoned babies who were picked up and adopted by the monks. They grew up in Daming Temple since childhood.

Although they look scary, they are very kind-hearted at heart. Even in such an environment, they can still be seen as kind-hearted and seem to not care about their situation at all!

At least that's what they looked like before Jia Jing's motorcade arrived...

Today's Zhike Monk is a young monk. He looks about ten years old. He is white and very cute. Originally, he was squatting on the ground and playing with dirt. Who would have thought that when he looked up, he saw nothing but black clouds.

A convoy is coming towards me!

The monks who were sweeping around also noticed it and couldn't help but look at each other in shock. The young monk also climbed up in a hurry and looked at the motorcade in front of him in shock. He had never seen such a gorgeous thing since he was a child!

The extremely exquisite patterns carved on the carriage, the intricate and gorgeous curtains, and the fragrance that can be smelled from such a distance! The aroma of BMW's withered carriages fills the road!

The guards in front of the motorcade are all extremely tall and strong, and the robes worn by the maids and servants are even ten thousand times better than the monks' robes they wear!

While the little monk was watching in amazement, he saw a young man riding a tall horse slowly walking out from the crowd. The white horse was tall and big, and there was not a single hair on his body! Especially the one on his neck.

The white mane looks even more majestic!

The young man was also wearing gorgeous clothes that dazzled the young monk, with a jade belt around his waist. He dismounted his horse neatly and walked up to the young monk.

The young monk was so frightened that he couldn't help but take two steps back. When the young man saw this, he stopped, smiled and said to the young monk: "Little master, is this the Daming Temple?"

The young monk swallowed, nodded slightly fearfully, then shook his head and said: "I am not the young master... I am Shan Nian, and this is Daming Temple."

Jia Jing was stunned when she heard this, then she stood up with a smile and clasped her hands together and said to the young monk: "Little Master Shan Nian, can you please take us to visit your Daming Temple?"

The little monk Shan Nian took a few steps back, hesitated and said, "Are you here to burn incense?" Jia Jing smiled and said, "Yes."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Shannian glanced at the carriage team behind Jia Jing, hesitated, and said weakly: "Then please come with me..."

As he turned around to leave, Jia Jing stopped him and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, little master, can you please ask the master in charge of Guibao Temple to talk to you?"

The little monk Shannian might have been unable to bear it any longer. Hearing this, he nodded hurriedly and said, "Just wait!"

As he spoke, he hurried in with his short legs. Liu Zegang behind him stretched out his hand to stop the young monk and asked him to call a Zhike monk to receive Jia Jing first. Who knew that the young monk didn't even look back?

Ran!

Liu Ze couldn't help but smile bitterly. Jia Jing looked at him with a smile and said, "He's a foreigner. Besides, he's still a child. Don't embarrass him."

Yanagisawa smiled bitterly and nodded in agreement. I was obviously afraid of collision and neglected you, but now it seems like I have done something bad!

Jia Jing's eyes flickered with a cold light as she slowly scanned the surroundings, and then she said softly to Liuze: "Let Qingfeng and the others be careful. I don't care, just pay attention to Miss Lin."

Liuze knew the importance, and he quickly nodded seriously when he heard this. After a while, he saw the little monk running over with a red face, panting for a long time: "Master, the presiding brother...said...

…”

Jia Jing smiled and said: "Little master, take your time, take a breath first, don't be in a hurry." The little monk thanked him in a low voice, and then after a while, he said to Jia Jing: "The host brother said, he will

If you ask someone to arrange for the temple members to evacuate, please benefactors."

Jia Jing was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the monks of Daming Temple in front of him with some curiosity. Let me do what I want?

Since Jia Jing traveled through time, when has she ever come to a temple without the host leading all the monks in the temple to give her a warm welcome? Although she came here for the incense money, the service was absolutely perfect every time. She must let Jia Jing

Feel the passion of Buddhism!

Why can't I even see the host this time? Could it be that even Youyuan people are not crossing now?

Jia Jing said a little strangely: "Then can I ask my people to seal the mountain?"

Shan Nian blinked his big eyes, bowed slightly and said: "Donor, if you want to close the mountain, please let me tell you that Daming Temple is open to all believers who have the heart to worship the Buddha. You are destined."

The same is true for people and other believers. When they go out of this door, they are in the world of mortals. There are three, six or nine classes. After passing through this door, they are all Buddhist sentient beings. All living beings are equal."

Jia Jing's eyes widened slightly, and Shan Nian seemed a little scared, but she still suppressed her fear and spoke faster: "So if you insist on doing this, please forgive Daming Temple for not being able to receive you."

Jia Jing did not speak when she heard this. She looked at the little monk's slightly frightened face, and then at the surrounding monks who were looking worriedly...

Look at the situation of Daming Temple. Just by sprinkling water, I can make the lives of these monks increase several times! But this time, let alone closing the temple for me, I didn't even see the abbot?

Jia Jing shook her head slowly, then sighed, clasped her hands together and said to the little monk, "Thank you, little master, I understand."

The little monk Shan Nian saw that Jia Jing was still willing to reason, so he breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Jia Jing with great pride in his heart: "Donor, you are too polite. Please help yourself."

Jia Jing nodded and stepped forward to ask Mrs. Zhou and Daiyu to get out of the car. She asked the soldiers to surround the curtain, and the monks all ducked out of the way.

Fortunately, there were really not many pilgrims in Daming Temple. Jia Jing estimated that even if they went in, there would only be one or two monks there, so Jia Jing stepped forward and explained the situation to Daiyu and Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou and Daiyu were both stunned, and then they admired the monks of Daming Temple!

Mrs. Zhou nodded repeatedly and said: "Jing'er did the right thing. Since there are family rules, we, as lay guests, should just do as the host does."

Daiyu also repeatedly exclaimed: "I have been in Yangzhou for so long, and although I have heard of Daming Temple, I did not expect it to be a place like this. The masters here seem to be more Buddha-like! The presiding master

It’s so admirable!”

Jia Jing smiled and said: "Why don't we go in and visit?" Mrs. Zhou and Daiyu both had this idea after hearing this. Mrs. Zhou then smiled and said: "We still have to see if they are cheap. If they have schoolwork, we

It’s better not to disturb you.”
