1419 Guangyuan Temple
Guangyuan Temple has enjoyed a long-standing reputation. When you reach the foot of the mountain, you can see crowds of people surging in front of the temple, and dust is flying on the yellow mud floor.
On both sides of the road, there are small merchants and hawkers who keep calling and shouting to the pilgrims who come to the temple to offer incense.
When she was about to get off the carriage, Ayu took out two veils from her body and handed them to Tan Yushu and Gu Xiaowan.
"The people who come here to offer incense are basically ordinary people. It's more convenient for us to wear a veil!" Tan Yushu said.
Gu Xiaowan followed her words, put on her veil, got out of the carriage, and then got into the sedan chair that had been following her all the way up to the top of the mountain.
The people who come to Guangyuan Temple to offer incense are ordinary people, firstly because the mountain road here is rugged, and those high-ranking officials and nobles are unwilling to spend such time, and secondly because Guangyuan Temple is too small to be on stage.
This mountain road has winding stairs, all paved with crushed stones, but it is also neat. There is a pavilion for resting on the mountainside.
Gu Xiaowan and the others sat on the sedan chair halfway up the mountain, but they didn't rest, and the bearers went up the mountain again in one breath.
When we arrived at the gate of Guangyuan Temple, there were pilgrims burning incense and worshiping Buddha everywhere, and no one spoke loudly, fearing that it would disturb the peace.
It was time for chanting, and many devout pilgrims folded their hands together, silently praying along with the chanting of the monks of Guangyuan Temple.
Gu Xiaowan didn't believe in Buddhism in her previous life, but after traveling through time, she met that Zen Master Huiyuan again, and she also liked the boundless Buddhism. Now, when they arrived at Guangyuan Temple, they gathered their brilliance and followed those monks to chant scriptures devoutly.
After reciting the morning scriptures and burning incense, Tan Yushu went to ask Tan Yexing for a peace talisman, because the peace talisman was about to be consecrated, and he couldn't leave for a while, so he had to stay for another half a day.
"Sister, I can only make you wait for me for half a day!" Tan Yushu said with some embarrassment. Hearing that the amulet will be consecrated, it will take half a day. Tan Yushu didn't want to, because he was afraid that he would delay Gu Xiaowan's time. I didn't intend to ask anymore, but was stopped by Gu Xiaowan.
I took this book, I planned to ask for it, but I didn't ask for it again. If the Buddha knew such insincerity, he would really blame him!
She has encountered such unimaginable things as crossing, and there is something she can't believe, so naturally she doesn't dare to be sloppy at all.
Seeing that Gu Xiaowan's persistence was really for his own sake, Tan Yushu was moved, so he stayed and waited for the amulet to be consecrated before going down the mountain.
Although this Guangyuan Temple is simple, it is just a small temple, but the furnishings and decorations inside are not lacking at all.
After donating the money for the sesame oil, some young monks took them to the back mountain, where there was a single house surrounded by a courtyard wall. VIP guests stay overnight or rest.
The house looks plain and simple, just like a simple folk house. There are a few linden trees planted in the yard, and the canopy is like a shade, which looks very elegant and quiet.
After the little monk brought Gu Xiaowan into a room, he said with a smile on his face: "The benefactors will take a nap for a while, and the consecration of the peace talisman will have to wait for a little longer. The little monk will go and prepare some for the benefactors first." Clear tea."
The little monk was also pretty and generous, after serving the tea, he gave a few more words of advice before leaving.
This is the first time for Gu Xiaowan to come to the temple, and the first time to go out of the gate so far in the capital. This Guangyuan Temple has never been there before. Gu Xiaowan also felt curious, so she wanted to go out for a walk. She told Tan Yushu that it happened to be She also had the same meaning, so the two held hands, left the wing room, and went outside to get some fresh air.
The two of them left the wing room and the courtyard, and saw a corridor connecting the back mountain, with green pruning bamboo planted beside it, soaring straight up into the sky, it seems that the bamboo has grown for many years.
From time to time, there is a wind blowing from the back mountain, and the bamboo leaves that grow into the sky can be heard gently blowing, just like a nice little song.
The end of this corridor cannot be seen at a glance, but I heard that there is a pavilion at the end of this corridor, because it is originally on the mountain, and it is specially for people who come to the back mountain to look around the world and see the beautiful mountains and rivers.
"Sister, although this Guangyuan Temple is broken, the Bodhisattva is very effective. They said that in the pavilion in front, there used to be gods who came down to earth, so everyone who comes here to burn incense and worship Buddha will basically come here to sit and have a look. !” Tan Yushu said with a smile.
"Immortal?" Gu Xiaowan showed a faint smile, looking at the exposed star anise at the end, the smile on her face was as soft as a gentle breeze blowing into her heart, peaceful and peaceful.
Tan Yushu met at the side, and seeing Gu Xiaowan's very interested appearance, he pulled her through the corridor and walked towards the octagonal pavilion.
From time to time, a gust of wind blew the Xiuzhu straight into the sky, the sound of quiet footsteps and occasional chuckles, it seemed quiet and peaceful, but, soon, this peaceful atmosphere was destroyed by a woman's wanton laughter lazy.
Before reaching the octagonal pavilion, at a corner, I heard a delicate voice: "Brother Ziyue, look at the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, how beautiful it is! I'm bored in the room all day, and I'm about to give it to you." I'm bored. Brother Zi Yue, don't you often travel to the beautiful mountains and rivers? Next time, take me with you, okay?"
The man's voice was charming and alluring. Thinking about it, few men could resist that charming voice.
Tan Yushu's footsteps stopped in an instant. Hearing the familiar and charming voice from the octagonal pavilion, his brows frowned.
Why is she here?
The person called Zi Yue's elder brother replied respectfully: "The princess is joking, the county
The Lord is the body of a thousand pieces of gold, how can he do those vulgar things? Besides, this Guangyuan Temple is far away from the capital, and it is also a place where ordinary people gather, if those interested people know the whereabouts of the princess, Zi Yue may be..."
The man's voice was distant and respectful.
Seeing Tan Yushu's footsteps stop, Gu Xiaowan stared at the octagonal gazebo with frowning. From this position, they couldn't see clearly who was standing inside the gazebo.
It seems that Tan Yushu knows the princess standing in the gazebo!
