Qingyuan Temple is located in the south of Chang'an City, at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.
The Fangfu convoy meandered out of Mingde Gate, the south gate of Chang'an City, and headed south. Within two hours, it entered the Zhongnan Mountains. After turning a few turns along the not-narrow mountain road, they saw a
Beautiful hilltops surrounded by mountains.
The environment here is beautiful, quiet and pleasant, with dark woods, overgrown weeds, noisy birds and hundreds of sounds in the forest, deep ditches on both sides, and gurgling water.
Among the green mountains and green trees, a Buddhist temple is hidden among them.
At this time, the sky was bright, the snow suddenly stopped, and the dark clouds in the sky dispersed. The temple reflected in the green trees, the apricot walls, the blue-grey ridges, and the towering green ancient trees were all bathed in the rose red.
In the morning glow.
It is surrounded by towering trees and tangled branches, especially pine trees. In addition, it is built on the protrusion of a steep rocky mountain, which fully demonstrates the charm of an ancient temple in the mountains.
Connecting the temple is a stone-paved path that disappears and appears in the forest. This path winds up along a slow long slope, makes a sharp ninety-degree turn on the right side of the temple, and then "wanders" for a while.
The distance is the main entrance of the temple.
There is a stone lion in front of the temple, which is mighty but not cruel. It seems to have been warned and influenced by Buddhism...
Every famous temple must have famous trees. Even if a famous temple is located in a dry mountain, desert, or island, there must be famous trees and feng shui in the temple. And the feng shui of this tree is the aura of the temple, which is the spirit of heaven and earth, and the gathering of heaven and earth.
Essence.
Without Feng Shui of famous trees, it would be a dry temple.
There is absolutely no intelligent spirit in a dry temple.
The three green pines in front of the temple, which have absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, have extremely strong vitality. They are arrogant, scattered and dense, towering into the clouds, with thick branches and entangled roots.
Three trees make a temple alive.
Wu Meiniang thought that it was already early for her group to go out at dawn. When they arrived in front of the temple gate and saw a long line of luxurious carriages in the open space, she realized that there were more early people.
When Fangfu's carriage stopped, Wu Meiniang eagerly got out of the car and secretly looked forward. Just as the carriage at the front opened its curtain, a strong figure jumped out of the carriage.
Wearing a navy blue brocade robe and black deerskin boots, he is of medium height, but appears to be well-proportioned and extremely strong. His shoulders are broad, his back is thick, his arms are like a wasp's waist, and he has an easy-going and free demeanor in his movements.
Wu Meiniang bit her lip, looked at her secretly, and murmured in her heart: Could such a masculine and strong boy be a rabbit?
But she happened to meet Fang Jun's eyes, Wu Meiniang couldn't avoid them, and their eyes met each other.
He has thick eyebrows, a straight nose, thick lips pressed together, a square face with easy edges and a hint of childishness, and dark skin that looks very healthy.
It should be said that he looks good and has a masculine air, but judging from the current custom of "white skin is beautiful for men, hairpins are covered with powder, and they are weak than clothes", he is really a bit ordinary.
The most outstanding thing about the whole person is the pair of dark jewel-like eyes, which are shining with brilliance. When they look at themselves, they are slightly complicated, like stars in the dark night, deep and far away, making it difficult to see what is in their hearts.
Thoughts.
Wu Meiniang's heart was beating wildly. This was the first time she had looked at a boy of the same age. For some reason, she felt a little bit ashamed in her heart.
There was a sound of ringing around, but Princess Han also got out of the car.
Seeing Wu Meiniang and her brother looking at each other from a distance, Princess Han couldn't help but smile softly, leaned into Wu Meiniang's ear and said: "My second brother looks pretty good, right? Let me tell you, what this man wants is a strong and masculine body.
Being handsome is what makes us women solid throughout our lives. Those handsome guys who are covered in makeup and powder cannot lift their shoulders or lift their hands, and they moan and groan when they get to bed and can't arouse anyone's interest..."
Wu Meiniang suddenly blushed and was so embarrassed that no matter how thoughtful and clever she was, how could she be a match for a woman? She put her pointed chin on her chest and lowered her head with her pretty face red.
, dare not speak, and dare not see Fang Jun again.
Princess Han chuckled, patted her on the shoulder, and walked towards Lu and others who were already waiting at the temple gate.
Wu Meiniang walked lightly and followed closely behind.
**********
Stepping into the gate of the temple, which was not grand, Fang Jun's eyes suddenly lit up.
Qingyuan Temple has continuous palaces and scale-like buildings, scattered among the mountains and forests. The sandalwood incense and Sanskrit sounds are deep, and the scale is actually quite large.
The group walked around a screen wall and passed through a pine forest before arriving at the Main Hall.
Qingyuan Temple has been open for more than 200 years, with a large number of believers and strong incense. At this time, pilgrims gathered in the temple, including men in brocade robes and mink fur, high crowns and belts, and female relatives with towering buns and long skirts that touched the floor.
Fang Jun did not believe in Buddhism, so he stood at the door of the palace and did not enter. He happened to pass Wu Mei Niang across the shoulder, the fragrant breeze blew on his face, his waist was like a willow, and he glanced at the water-cut eyes with a hint of resentment.
With one glance, he followed his eldest sister, Princess Han, into the main hall.
Fang Jun touched his nose, feeling a little confused.
This girl looked at her with a strange look, as if she was a little regretful, a little resentful, a little miserable, and even a little... dissatisfied with desires?
Fang Jun couldn't help but feel that he was a heartless person who abandoned his beautiful wife...
What a shame, why do all the girls Mao meets have a pair of eyes that can talk? Princess Gao Yang is like this, Wu Meimei is still like this...
To say that Fang Jun has no thoughts about Wu Meiniang is absolutely impossible.
Let’s not talk about the soft waist of wicker, nor the charming face like flowers, but saying these three words "Wu Mei Niang" will give any man who can kiss her an unparalleled sense of accomplishment.
Being able to hold Wu Meimei under her body and play with her as she pleases, and Wu Meimei will always obey and do whatever she wants. What kind of supreme sense of conquest does that feel like?
But Fang Jun couldn't overcome his own inner demons.
Others may only see the skin like white jade and the figure like willows, but Fang Jun knows what a powerful heart is hidden under this charming skin.
There is pressure...
While I was in a trance, I heard my mother Lu calling softly from inside the hall: "Erlang, come here."
After hearing this, Fang Jun quickly walked into the main hall.
Sandalwood incense lingers in the main hall. Several old monks in cassocks sit on both sides with lowered eyebrows. In the middle, a eight-foot-tall sandalwood Buddha statue stands majestically. The left hand of the Buddha droops, forming the "giving seal", which means that it can satisfy all living beings.
If you wish, bend your right arm and stretch it upward, forming the "Shi Wuwei Seal", which means that you can eliminate the suffering of all living beings.
Mrs. Lu knelt in front of the Buddha statue. Her eldest sister, Princess Han and Wu Meiniang, knelt beside Mrs. Lu. There were also several relatives and family members of the Fang family, but Fang Jun was not familiar with them.
There were other pilgrims, all standing respectfully on both sides without coming forward. The Fang family had a high status, and ordinary people stood aside consciously, waiting for the Fang family to offer incense first.
Lu waved: "Come quickly and kneel down."
All the female relatives stood up and gave up their positions.
Fang Jun had no choice but to walk over, kneel on the futon beside Mrs. Lu, and respectfully kowtow three times to the Buddha statue.
He has never believed in Buddhism, but this does not hinder the etiquette that should be observed. As the saying goes, when you come here, you should respect the rules of the place.
"Erlang, have you seen the lotus lantern in front of the Buddha? That is the longevity lantern that my mother made for you on this day ten years ago, to protect my son from illness and disaster, and to be safe. You must remember that in the future Every year, you should take time to go to Qingyuan Temple to burn incense and give alms, and you should always be kind to others. It is said that if you accumulate good deeds, people will be happy, have you ever remembered?"
Fang Jun curiously looked at the longevity lamp in the shape of lotus petals on the incense table, and agreed smoothly: "Mom, I remember it." But in his heart, he was thinking: "Since the beginning of winter, there have been strong winds and snow for many days. Look, The door to the main hall is not tight, and it is inevitable that wind and snow will leak out. How come this lamp was not blown out?"
Young Master Xu said
Although it is a little faster than a snail, the results are increasing after all. I am very happy, but... but... but... I still have to ask for votes...
