Liu Lianyue was silent. He was really afraid that Mo Hai would be bewitched by her junior sister. After all, heroes have been saddened by beauty since ancient times. The charm of Full Moon in this building is so powerful that even a senior monk may not be able to control it, let alone
, Mr. Mo is a hot-blooded young man.
"Senior sister, Mr. Mo is my man, just wait and see." Seeing Liu Lianyue's melancholy expression, Lou Manyue became even more proud.
"Humph." Liu Lianyue snorted coldly, then looked away, unwilling to say anything more.
When Lou Manyue saw that her senior sister was deflated, she smiled even more happily. She lowered her head to the lake, looked at her face, and said deliberately: "Senior sister, am I really fifty years old?"
"How do I feel? I'm only eighteen years old."
"Can I have a little face?" Liu Lianyue couldn't help it.
The two junior sisters were bickering on the boat, while Mo Hai was already heading towards Liangming Temple along a stone path in the mountains.
After walking for several miles, I arrived at the entrance of Liangming Temple. The green tiles and yellow walls have been weathered for a long time and have become somewhat dim and dilapidated. Unlike some temples, which have almost become a tourist place, Liangming Temple is located in the suburbs of Baobei City.
It is really rare to be able to maintain the purity of Buddhism.
Although Liangming Temple is not open to the public and is not a tourist place, because of its wide reputation, there are still many tourists, believers, or Tan Yue who come here.
When Mo Hai came, he saw some tourists taking pictures outside, and some entering the main hall to burn incense and worship Buddha, ask for fortune-telling, and pray for blessings.
Except for some tourists, those who really come here should have a pious heart. Mo Hai climbed up the steps and entered a main hall that was not too grand. In the middle of the main hall, a giant Buddha sat.
The Buddha statue is solemn, and the golden body has faded a lot over the years. Beside the Buddha statue, there are also golden statues of Bodhisattvas and Arhats.
Most people just stop at the main hall and the backyard of Liangming Temple. Few people can enter. When Mo Hai came in, he saw several monks in the main hall. They were plainly dressed and had pale faces. Most of them had patches sewn on their bodies. Seeing the conditions in the temple, they were still...
Quite hard.
Of course, this is probably what makes Liangming Temple unique. Buddhism is originally born in the mortal world, but it is not stained by the mortal world. You can accept charity, but you cannot lose yourself because of money. Since you have escaped into Buddhism, you must abide by the principles.
In today's environment, the monks of Liangming Temple seem to still adhere to the belief of being a Buddhist. This is why Liangming Temple can be shrouded in Buddha's light.
"Almsgiver, what can I do for you?" A monk in the main hall saw Mo Hai walking into the main hall and standing in front of the Buddha statue with his hands folded. He was in a daze, thinking that Mo Hai had some knot in his heart, so he couldn't help but come over.
said.
Buddhism emphasizes on saving all sentient beings, and saving others also saves oneself, so the monks in Liangming Temple are still very compassionate and enthusiastic.
"Can I go see your abbot?" Mo Hai looked away from the Buddha statue and asked with a warm smile.
"Uh, this benefactor, I'm really sorry. Our presiding officer is meditating facing the wall on the back mountain and cannot see you. If the benefactor really has something important, you can leave a note and I will convey it to you after the meditative presiding is over." The monk said.
Right concentration is one of the Eightfold Path of Buddhism. Through correct meditation, one has reached the state of pure six roots.
Originally, the abbot was in seclusion and it was difficult to disturb Mo Hai, but since Mo Hai was here, there was no reason to leave without seeing him.
However, it was not easy for Mo Hai to break into this Buddhist holy land. Mo Hai thought about it and planned to go "invisible" to the back mountain to meet the abbot of Liangming Temple.
"Thank you. Since the abbot is in retreat, I won't disturb you. I'll linger for a while and then leave. Elder, please excuse me." Mo Hai clasped his hands together and said politely.
The monk also folded his hands towards Mo Hai, then stopped talking and went to answer other donors' questions.
Mo Hai took another look at the main hall and was about to leave and find a deserted place to practice his skills. However, at this moment, a middle-aged couple hurriedly walked into the main hall with a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.
The seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl was wearing a mask, but she could tell from her eyebrows that she was very pretty. However, at this moment, the girl was surrounded by evil spirits, and she looked depressed.
"Two donors, follow me to the backyard." The monk who just spoke to Mo Hai should know the middle-aged couple. He said to them, and then led the way into the backyard.
Mo Hai smiled. It seemed that there was no need to be "invisible". Since others could enter the backyard openly, Mo Hai also went to the backyard to have a look. It was okay not to see the host, but to meet other eminent monks.
Mo Hai followed the middle-aged couple and the girl with a smile. When he saw Mo Hai suddenly following him, the monk did not change his expression. He just said politely: "Donor, it's really not convenient for the host to see you. Why don't you come back another day?"
?”
"It's okay if I don't see the host. I'm just passing by here and saw a Buddha's light appearing in the mountains and forests, so I came to take a look. I just took a look and left. I hope the elder can help me." Mo Hai said politely.
The monk looked at Mo Hai and saw that although Mo Hai was young, he had an extraordinary bearing. In fact, the backyard of Liangming Temple was not invisible. It was just for the sake of peace and quiet that it rarely received pilgrims. However, if the pilgrims insisted on entering to visit, the monk generally would not stop him.
of.
For Buddhism, everything is a virtual image. It is no big deal if people visit the temple.
"Then the donor, please come together." The monk said, as if he didn't know how to refuse others.
The middle-aged couple, on the other hand, frowned slightly, obviously unwilling to let Mo Hai follow, but the owner of the place had said so, so they couldn't say much.
The backyard of Liangming Temple is very large, connected to the back mountain. The backyard is where monks practice daily. As for the back mountain, it can be regarded as the real forbidden area of Liangming Temple. Without special circumstances, even the monks of Liangming Temple cannot enter at will. After all, there are
The abbot is practicing meditation, so it would be inappropriate if he disturbed him.
Walking into the backyard, there were more monks. In the courtyard, the monk who was leading Mo Hai suddenly stamped his feet and said to Mo Hai: "Donor, you can take a look here as you like. I have other things to do, so I can't accompany you."
Already."
"Excuse me, elder." Mo Hai smiled casually.
After the monk finished speaking, he led the middle-aged couple and their family of three through a small door from the west corridor and entered another courtyard.
Mo Hai took a casual look in the courtyard. There were side halls on three sides of the courtyard, where Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were also enshrined. There were monks cleaning inside, or chanting sutras and meditating. There were also several monks in the courtyard.
During dance practice, everything looks peaceful and harmonious.
Mo Hai wandered to the west corridor and wanted to go through the small door and enter another courtyard. However, a monk stepped forward and blocked Mo Hai's way, saying that he could not enter that courtyard. As for the reason, he did not elaborate.
