Chapter 500: A Heart of Kindness

Fengming Temple is different from Lingshan Temple, Lingshan Temple occupies the entire Lingshan Mountain, there are many temples, halls, dormitories, guest rooms, and fields in front of and behind the mountain, scattered in various places of Lingshan Temple, more like a good place to visit and relax.

Although Fengming Temple is very large, it does not occupy as much area as Lingshan Temple. All the buildings are gathered on the mountainside facing Fengming City, built according to the mountain, and the low courtyard walls are undulating along the mountain, and the temples and towers in the courtyard are clearly visible.

Feng Wu skillfully pulled Lin Wan towards the courtyard, and Zhou Tianqi and Jin Cong followed the two of them closely.

Everywhere you can see devout believers kneeling and praying in the open Buddha hall, and young monks in gray robes gently knocking on wooden fish on the side.

Bypassing a few Buddha halls and passing through a few paths, Feng Wu took Lin Wan and the others to the front of one of the largest Buddha halls.

Feng Wu frowned and said in frustration: "There are too many people today, we may not be able to meet Master Mingshan." ”

Looking up, I saw that the hall was full of kneeling people, and I couldn't see whether it was Master Mingshan who knocked the wooden fish in front of the Buddha. However, the gentle and clear sound of the wooden fish seems to be in the ears, which makes people gradually calm down unconsciously.

The inside and outside of the temple are full of good men and women, all of whom are ordinary people. Because people with status and status such as Zhou Tianhong and Lan Ziyue will never go to incense with ordinary people, they are all waiting for the first incense stick before dawn. Or, like Mrs. Lin at the beginning, she had already come the night before, just to make the first incense stick before the Buddha.

Lin Wan is not a believer in Buddhism, nor does he have any religious beliefs. But he has great respect for the people of Buddhism and the devout believers. She's not superstitious, but she's not completely unconvinced. She believes that those who have Buddha and faith in their hearts can purify and comfort their souls. At the very least, they are god-fearing and good-minded.

Feng Wu looked at the crowded crowd around him, and said helplessly: "Let's go to the dining hall to eat fast first, and then come back after eating, there should be fewer people here to make incense." ”

Lin Wan nodded and laughed in a low voice: "Okay, I haven't even eaten breakfast, and my stomach is already rumbling with hunger." ”

Feng Wu couldn't help but smile and said, "I called you to eat in the morning, and you said to sleep for a while, but you didn't wake up when we set off." In the carriage, I told you to eat some pastries, and you said that you were not hungry. Now, you know you're rumbling with hunger?"

Lin Wan was stunned, scratched the back of his head, and muttered, "I said these words?"

Feng Wu covered his mouth and laughed wildly. Zhou Tianqi and Jin Cong were also on the side, and they couldn't help but laugh secretly.

Lin Wan snorted lightly, glanced at them, and said hatefully: "You must have lied to me, where can I sleep so deeply, I don't remember what I said." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone finally couldn't help laughing. Thankfully, they had come out of the crowd and no one was paying attention to them. Otherwise, laughing in this kind of Buddhist holy place will be blamed.

The four of them made their way north to a more lively place. In front of it is a large Lent hall where many people sit around a table, and the food on the table is simple, but everyone eats very happily.

Walking further in, there were two rows of bungalows, and there was a small novice standing at the entrance, seeing Lin Wan and others coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to give a Buddhist salute, and asked politely: "Are the four donors going to the guest room to rest?"

Lin Wan was stunned, I don't know why Feng Wu brought them here, didn't they come to eat? Why did they go to the guest room to rest?

Feng Wu smiled slightly, and replied: "Exactly, we are a little tired, and we want to find a quiet place to rest for a while, so let Master Lao take us in." ”

Xiao Shami bowed, made a gesture of please, and said politely: "Four donors, please go inside with the little monk." ”

The four of them followed the little novice on, walked to the door of the innermost guest room, and gently pushed open the small wooden door, only to see that there was only a table, four stools, and a soft couch inside.

Feng Wu walked into the room and sat down at the table. Lin Wan, Zhou Tianqi, and Jin Cong also sat down in turn, turned their heads to look at Fengwu, and didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd?

Xiao Shami did not leave, but walked in, lowered his head, stood in front of the table with a light smile, and asked politely, "Ladies and gentlemen, are you satisfied with this place?"

Feng Wu nodded and said, "Very good, it's quiet here." As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve, stuffed it into the hand of the little novice, and said in a low voice: "Little master, a few of us have come from afar, and we are already hungry, please help the little master and get us some food to eat, okay?"

Xiao Shami quietly put the silver into his sleeve, bowed, and said, "Please wait, donors, the little monk will be back soon." ”

Feng Wu hurriedly got up, folded his hands, returned a Buddha salute, and thanked: "Thank you, little master!"

Xiao Shami slowly walked out of the room and gently closed the door.

Lin Wan's eyes widened, looked at the closed door, and muttered, "So it's okay to do this!"

Feng Wu smiled lightly and said, "Of course you can." The Buddha is merciful, he will never let us go hungry, right? What's more, the Buddha also needs sesame oil money, and these little novices can only encounter such a good errand in the first day of the new year. ”

Lin Wan saw that there was hot tea on the table, opened the lid of the pot and looked at it, and saw that it was ordinary tea leaves, but the temperature was just right. Not only did she not eat for half a day, but she didn't even eat a drop of water, Lin Wan didn't care if it was good or not, so she poured herself a cup from the teapot and drank it in one gulp.

The warm tea enters the throat, the taste is sweet and slightly astringent, just to quench your thirst. Lin Wan filled himself with another cup, poured another cup for everyone, and said with a smile: "The tea leaves are average, but the water for making tea is not bad, sweet and delicious." ”

Feng Wu smiled slightly, nodded, and praised: "Wan'er is really to the point, the water for making tea is brewed with the mountain spring water on Fengming Mountain, and the mountain spring water of our Fengming Mountain is cool and slightly sweet all year round, which is indeed extraordinary." ”

Zhou Tianqi also picked up the teacup, took a sip, nodded slightly, and said, "It's really good, it's somewhat similar to the taste of the mountain spring water I drank in Lingshan Temple when I was a child." ”

After about a cup of tea, the voice of the little novice came from outside the door: "Donor, the food is here, can the little monk come in?"

Lin Wan was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly responded: "Little master, please come in." ”

The door was gently pushed open, and I saw the little novice standing at the door with a mother-in-law.

The woman was about fifty years old, sturdy, and carried a large, heavy tray in both hands effortlessly. There are four plates of vegetarian dishes, a large bowl of green vegetable soup, a large pot of rice, and four pairs of chopsticks on the tray.

Xiao Shami walked to the table and stood still, pointed to the table, and said, "Please put the food on the table." ”
