First of all...he can't be reincarnated, which is a very troublesome problem!
Secondly...since he met Huang Pizi, he has encountered too many supernatural facts.
Zhang Tiezhu almost collapsed. He believed that the root cause of all this was that yellow man.
So now when he goes to the temple, he really wants to see if there is a way to crack it!
Zhang Tiezhu now feels sad and helpless.
Especially last night, he obviously burned incense to inform Huang Pizi, but the other party ignored him!
Can he not be angry?
Anyone else would be angry!
Zhang Tiezhu took a minibus bound for other counties.
There is a stop on the way and you will pass by the temple and park your car there.
You can also come by bicycle, but it's too cold in winter and it takes too long to ride.
More than 30 minutes later...
Zhang Tiezhu got off the car.
"Ziyun Temple."
Zhang Tiezhu looked at the large plaque of the temple in the distance, looked melancholy, and hurried over.
In ancient times, most temples and temples were built on mountains.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the newly built Taoist temples and temples were basically located in remote and vacant places.
Temples are spiritual places.
Not only are there people here, there are also many spiritual beings here.
Some people with special birthdays and horoscopes may feel chilly or hot, or may yawn or shed tears when entering a temple.
The temple gate was open and there was no need to buy a ticket. Zhang Tiezhu entered the temple directly.
It's very big inside, with ancient halls whose names are written on them...which correspond to the temples of Buddha and Bodhisattva.
After entering, the first thing Zhang Tiezhu saw was the Maitreya Hall.
It is winter now, so the doors of these halls are closed.
But these windows have wooden frames, and there is no film on the glass, so air leakage will definitely occur.
There is a small wooden room on the left hand side of the entrance. Various incense sticks of different lengths are placed at the door. The word "incense for sale" is written on the wall of the wooden room.
"I feel a little heavy." Zhang Tiezhu muttered. He felt as if there were heavy objects pressing on his shoulders, and his back was cold.
Zhang Tiezhu exhaled hot breath, and a long line of mist appeared.
Then he ran towards the Maitreya Hall that he saw first.
The door of Maitreya Hall is unlocked and opens when pushed.
Crossing the red threshold, there is a huge Maitreya Buddha statue in the middle, with a kind smile on his face and a big belly.
Maitreya Buddha is one of the most commonly worshiped Buddha statues in ordinary people's homes.
It was very cold inside the Maitreya Hall, just like an ice cellar. Just as Zhang Tiezhu guessed, there was indeed a draft, and even the water in the water cup in front of the Buddha statue froze.
"Lord Buddha, bless you!"
Zhang Tiezhu clasped his hands together and bowed to worship.
He didn't know if it was right to do so.
Zhang Tiezhu thought in his heart that worshiping Buddha with a sincere heart is spiritual and there is no need to stick to those formalities.
This is also a common thought among most laymen.
After worshiping Maitreya Buddha, Zhang Tiezhu left the Maitreya Hall and planned to visit other places.
Continuing to walk into the temple, there are flower beds on both sides, but unfortunately they are all covered with snow now.
There are also some people coming to worship Buddha inside, but not many people come.
There are: Guanyin Hall, Ksitigarbha Hall, Arhat Hall, Medicine Master Hall, Amitabha Hall, etc...
Zhang Tiezhu walked forward and entered the Guanyin Hall again.
Avalokitesvara holds a jade purification vase in one hand and a willow branch in the other, with a compassionate smile.
In front of the Buddha statue, there was an elder sister in her 40s kowtowing to the Goddess of Mercy.
Zhang Tiezhu paid more attention to the eldest sister. She was really good-looking. She was wearing a thin black down jacket and a pair of black leather shoes. She was well maintained. Although there were more wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, she definitely still had charm!
The eldest sister was muttering. Although she couldn't hear clearly what she was saying, she seemed to be crying.
More than twenty seconds later, the eldest sister left. She lowered her head and walked forward, wiping tears from the corners of her eyes. When she passed by Zhang Tiezhu, she quietly looked at his eyes.
Zhang Tiezhu felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this woman.
Who in the right mind would go to a temple to cry?
But he didn't have the heart to think about that now, he was in a mess.
"Goddess of Mercy bless you!"
Zhang Tiezhu put his hands together and bowed to worship.
After paying homage to the Goddess of Mercy, Zhang Tiezhu left and went to the Ksitigarbha Hall again.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva holds a Zen staff, with a solemn expression and a kind face.
Zhang Tiezhu stood in awe, clasped his hands and bowed to worship.
Even though he knew little about the Yin and Yang Circle, he had still heard the saying that if hell is not empty, he will never become a Buddha.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's own merits were already enough for him to become a Buddha, but he himself gave up.
Voluntarily sit in hell and use the power of one's boundless merits to free all the wronged souls and evil spirits.
great!
altruism!!
Zhang Tiezhu was thinking, if he really couldn't be reincarnated after his death, could he go to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva for help?!
Thinking of this, Zhang Tiezhu knelt down and kowtowed three times!
"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva bless you!"
Zhang Tiezhu was very respectful. After leaving Ksitigarbha Hall, he went to several other halls.
After going to these halls, he paid homage respectfully and was very pious!
During this period, he also saw several other pilgrims who came to worship Buddha.
"Weird, where is the monk?" Zhang Tiezhu muttered, blew hot air into his palms, and rubbed his hands coldly.
He came here to find a way to be reincarnated. If possible, he would also deal with Huang Tianxiang.
But when I arrived, not even a single monk could be seen.
"Did you come here in vain?"
Zhang Tiezhu was a little disappointed. Although he originally came here, he just came to try his luck.
Zhang Tiezhu walked out in despair, but as he was walking, he was suddenly stunned and slapped himself hard on the forehead.
"Who would be outside in such a cold weather!"
Zhang Tiezhu ran towards the wooden house at the entrance of the temple.
He felt so stupid!
Who wouldn't feel cold standing outside today?
The monks in the temple are also human beings, so they must be cold too!
Zhang Tiezhu directly opened the wooden door of the small wooden house, and the hot air that hit his face made him feel comfortable.
The hut is not big. There is a stove inside, and a pot of water is sitting on it. The water has already boiled and is steaming... Beside it, there are various incense sticks of different lengths, and even
There are also lighters for sale!
There was a bald old man with a long beard, holding a Buddhist scripture in his hand, and he was reading it very seriously.
Even Zhang Tiezhu entered the room, but the old man didn't respond yet.
"Hello, uncle." Zhang Tiezhu was very polite.
"Well, buying incense?" The uncle nodded, his eyes still staring at the Buddhist scriptures, without even looking at Zhang Tiezhu.
"No...no, I just want to inquire about something."
"What's the matter?" the old man said calmly, still not looking at Zhang Tiezhu.
"Where is the... master in our temple?!" Zhang Tiezhu almost accidentally said the word "monk".
It is definitely right to address monks respectfully in the temple.
The old man was stunned for a moment, put down the Buddhist scripture in his hand, looked at Zhang Tiezhu, and said calmly: "What did you want to say in the first place?"
"No, it's nothing." Zhang Tiezhu shook his head, wondering, is this old man so serious?
"You think I'm deaf?" The old man sneered: "You can say whatever you want. For such a grown man, how dare you say it but don't dare to admit it?"
If it were someone else, there would probably be two ways to handle this situation.
One: Apologize and admit your mistake.
Two: Continue to deny it, saying that the old man heard it wrong.
But what kind of temper does Zhang Tiezhu have?
This old man said he is not a man?
Can he bear it?!
"I want to say I'm a monk, right?" Zhang Tiezhu was very carefree and didn't care.
