Chapter 200 Dumplings? Daxingshan Temple

Gu Ting suddenly fell into the mystery because he was chased by someone, and the sky was too dark.

When I realized that I had entered the maze, I had no time to withdraw.

In the dark night, in order to prevent an accident, the three of them stayed in place and waited until dawn to break the formation.

Gu Tingqiu has learned the formation, but after entering the formation, it still takes some time to go out.

After all, there is a saying: The authorities are confused.

"It's not a killing formation." Gu Tingqiu observed carefully and comforted his two subordinates.

The two of them sighed softly, not because they were killing formations, which also showed that they could still go out alive.

Although the mystery is difficult to solve, it is not unsolvable. This is a great blessing in misfortune.

The people who were trapped in the maze with Gu Ting-Xiang and the other two were also chasing them last night.

"We have to find a way to kill them." Gu Tingqing saw the people chasing them through the gaps between the branches and leaves.

There are seven people on the other side, and Gu Ting-hyung is not the only one in terms of number of people.

With Gu Tingxian's light skills, it is not difficult for him to get rid of the pursuit.

The problem is that he can't just care about himself, he has to protect his two subordinates.

Just when Gu Ting-hyung was planning to use the maze to fight back against his opponent, Li Luotang and Xiang'er sat in a newly opened dumpling shop and ate dumplings.

The owner of the small restaurant was the woman who beat Boss Cai yesterday when she was competing in cooking on the street.

Li Luotang ordered Chinese cabbage and pork dumplings. The Chinese cabbage is fresh and sweet and juicy, and it is served with fresh meat filling, so there is no need for too much seasoning.

As long as the original flavor is presented, it will be particularly refreshing and delicious.

After eating the dumplings, Li Luotang said to the woman, "Boss, your food is so delicious, why don't you open a restaurant?"

The woman smiled and said, "It's not that she doesn't want to open, it's that she doesn't have enough staff."

Three people support a dumpling shop, which is busy enough.

"When you recruit the right people, open a restaurant, and the business will be prosperous." Li Luotang said with a smile.

"Cheng Gongzi Guiyan." The woman smiled.

After coming out of the dumpling shop, Li Luotang took Xiang'er to stroll around the street.

As I walked around, I visited Daxingshan Temple.

"Since we have arrived here, let's go in and take a look at the royal temple of the previous dynasty, the ancestral courtyard of the "Eight Buddhist Sects". "Li Luotang does not like to visit temples.

However, there are too many temples in Xi'an, and there are not less than ten famous ones.

"Aunt Li, which eight sects of Buddhism are?" Xiang'er asked.

"I think about it." Li Luotang counted silently, "The eight major sects of Buddhism, nature, appearance, wise, Zen, purity, law, and secret."

While talking, the two walked into a shop selling incense and bought a large handful of incense.

Daxingshan Temple was originally named Zunshan Temple. It is one of the three major scripture translation sites and one of the oldest Buddhist temples.

The mountain gate of Daxingshan Temple is unique in shape and is a two-story hip-mounted building.

The four words "Daxingshan Temple" are written on the south side of the mountain gate, the four words "Sanctuary of the country" are engraved on the east side, the four words "Peace and affection" are engraved on the west side, and the four words "Wugang Tang Town" are written on the north side of the mountain gate.

Behind the mountain gate, on the north and south central axis is the first hall, and the main hall enshrines the big-bellied Maitreya Buddha with a smile on his face and a happy and bare belly.

The blue smoke curled and the sound of the Sanskrit sounds were bursting, and the pilgrims bowed devoutly.

"A big belly can tolerate things that are hard tolerant in the world; a smile always opens and laughs at the ridiculous people in the world." Li Luotang curled his lips, "Since it can tolerate, why do you still have to laugh at it? It's really hypocritical."

"Amitabha, the donor's words are wrong." The little shami who was holding incense beside him said righteously.

Li Luotang didn't expect that the little novice monk would speak out, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong with what I said?"

"Maitreya Buddha laughed not at the world, but told believers that learning Buddhism is practiced with joy." The little novice clasped his hands together, "You can tolerate things that are difficult to tolerate in the world; you always smile and see sentient beings who can hear the Dharma."

"My little master, you are right, but why don't you change this couplet?" Li Luotang said with a smile.

The little novice monk was speechless.

Li Luotang smiled slightly and looked gloomy. The old monk read the scriptures well, but she might say she couldn't win. The little novice monk was not her opponent.

On both sides of Maitreya Buddha are the four statues of heavenly kings. The four heavenly kings are also known as the Four Heavenly Kings of the World, and are the Dharma protector gods of Buddhism, commonly known as the "Four Vajras".

"The East is the king of the kingdom of throne. He wore a white robe and armor. He held this pipa in his hand, and some held Ruan Qin." Li Luotang said.

Xiang'er asked: "What does stake the country mean?"

Li Luotang had no idea about Buddhism and could not answer it.

Although the little novice is young, he is already tolerant. Even though he was just criticized by Li Luotang, he still spoke out to help Xiang'er solve his doubts, "holding the country's will is compassionate, protecting all living beings, and protecting the country."

Xiang'er put his hands together to show his gratitude.

Xiaoxiaomi said: "This is the King of Growth in the South. He is in a green robe, wearing armor and holding a sword. "Growth" means to be able to spread sentient beings, increase good roots, and protect the Dharma."

"This one is the Western King of Broadme, wearing a red robe, wearing armor and a dragon's hand."

"In some temples, there are snakes wrapped in their hands." Li Luotang interrupted.

The little novice monk chanted the Buddha's name, "If the snake practices, it can turn into a dragon. 'Broad Eye' means that you can observe the world at any time with the pure heavenly eyes and protect the people."

"This is the king of the Great God of Heaven in the north. He is in a green robe, wearing armor, lying on the silver rat in his left hand, and holding a treasure umbrella on his right. "Duowen" means that he is very proficient in Buddhism, and he hears good deeds in all directions with blessings and virtues."

The little novice monk did not know what his mentality was, so he acted as the "tour guide" for the two, leading the two to tour the Daxingshan Temple all the way.

Behind the statue of Maitreya Bodhisattva is the guardian god Weituo Zuntian Bodhisattva.

There is a door open on each side of the Heavenly King Hall, with a "Valley" plaque hanging on the east door and a "Sidi" plaque hanging on the west door.

In the east and west halls behind the Heavenly King Hall, both Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is enshrined.

The Bodhisattva holds a bead in his left hand and a tin staff in his right hand, and sits on a thousand-leaf green lotus.

The little novice monk boasted about the great wish of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, "If hell is not empty, he will not become a Buddha."

Li Luotang endured it and did not complain.

Next to the Bodhisattva in the East Palace is a statue of the Yanjun from the First Palace of the Underworld to the Fifth Palace of Yanjun.

Next to the Bodhisattva in the West Palace is a statue of the sixth palace of the underworld to the tenth palace of the Yanjun.

The little novice cliched his hands together and said, "According to Bodhi, quickly attain enlightenment, forever eliminate life and death, and always be happy."

"Go out." Li Luotang looked at the Ten Palaces of Yanjun and remembered the ghost soldiers in the City God Temple.

No wonder Gu Tingxian said that Buddhism and Taoism are originally a family, and the underworld is fully reflected.

Going further in, there are the bell tower and the drum tower.

The bell tower is located in the east, and the plaque "Sound of the Sky" is hung above it.

The west is the Drum Tower, with a plaque "Diyin" hanging above it.

Under the leadership of the little novice monk, he worshiped the Five Buddhas worshipped in the Main Hall.

"Five-way Buddhas", also known as "Five-way Buddhas", "Five-way Tathagatas", and "Five-way Tathagata".

In Tantric Buddhism, one Buddha is presided over by each of the five directions in the southeast, west, north, and middle directions.

They are the Great Sun Tathagata in the center, the Immortal Tathagata in the east, the Amitabha Buddha in the west, the Treasure Born Buddha in the south, and the Unempt Buddha in the north.

"Little Master, what is the Three Body Buddha?" Li Luotang asked.
