Standing under the glazed pagoda of Tongtian based on this five-colored lotus platform, looking at the three big characters of 'First Tower' inscribed by Emperor Chengzu on the tower gate, Zhao Hao couldn't help himself for a long time.

Only by seeing it with your own eyes and going to it can you truly appreciate how magnificent this pagoda is and how brilliant the miracle building of the Ming Dynasty is!

The three of them could feel that at that moment, Zhao Hao seemed to have changed as a person.

Zhao Gongzi, who was lazy and casual in the past, was full of reverence on his face at this time, just like the most devout Buddhist, and excitedly reached out to touch the tower wall with five-colored glaze.

On the wall of the tower, there are countless statues of the king of heaven who ride the lion elephant, each of them is crowned with hairpins, clothes and belts, the halberd wheel, the ornament is anomalous, and none of them are repeated. Looking up, each layer of the eaves of the tower is covered with the carved sill, with the Yuan Zhu calyx swirling, the green tile scales, the brilliance is bright.

At the top of the ninth-level pagoda, there is a huge iron wheel, which is stacked with several rings, and is crowned with a large gold orb. It is surrounded by gilded copper chains and pendants with golden bells. Each level of cornices are hung gilt ringing, melodious in the autumn wind, singing the most splendid movement of the Ming Dynasty.

Xue Lang told Zhao Hao that such a glazed tower, except for a 'core wood' on the top of the tower, actually does not use an inch of wood throughout the body. That's why it survived last year's thunderstorm......

When the warrior monk guarding the pagoda opened the copper-clad iron door with gold nails and red paint under the order of Xue Lang, Zhao Hao found that there was a three-story high Xuanchang lobby in this glazed pagoda.

Entering the tower, I saw that in the center of the hall, there is a relics tower with pure gold, and each side enshrines a golden body of Shakya Buddha.

Xue Lang stepped forward to light incense for the Buddha statue, and the two daughters knelt on the futon, kowtowing to the Buddha sincerely, and they didn't know what they were praying for.

At this time, Zhao Hao was standing there, looking up at the hundreds of Buddha statues scattered all over the hall walls and caissons. I saw that each one was extremely exquisite, and his eyebrows were all gone, and he was looking at him majesticly, compassionately, or indifferently.

The Buddhas seemed to be torturing him, who are you, where are you from, where are you going?

Zhao Hao couldn't answer, so he could only retract his gaze and follow the footsteps of Xue Lang to climb the spiral staircase around the tower wall.

~~

The four of them silently rotated up the spiral ladder, and each time they went up the floor, they worshiped the Buddha as they did at the beginning.

In the middle of the second floor is the statue of Amitabha Buddha;

In the middle of the third layer is the statue of the Great Shakyamuni Buddha;

In the middle of the fourth floor is the Buddha statue of Great Compassion;

In the middle of the fifth layer is a statue of Da Muni Buddha;

In the middle of the sixth floor is the statue of Guanyin;

The seventh floor is dedicated to the statue of Yingluo Master;

The eight and nine floors are like one layer, and each enshrines Buddha statues on all sides......

When he reached the top floor, Zhao Hao saw that there was a door leading to the outside of the tower, and asked Xue Lang to learn that it was reserved for overhauling the top of the tower, so he was enthusiastic and proposed to go out and take a look.

Xue Lang's face turned pale when he heard this, "I can't accompany the little monk, I'm afraid of heights." ”

Qiaoqiao was also very afraid, but seeing that Ma Xianglan was also eager to try, she was unwilling and said, "I'll go out and take a look." ”

"You must be careful, you will not survive if you fall." Xue Lang was really not at ease, lest the Ming poetry circle lose its fig leaf, and tied the rope that Xiao Shami usually wipes the window outside the tower to the waist of the three people, so he took out the key and opened the household fan.

As soon as the door opened, the wind suddenly poured in, Zhao Hao went out first, Ma Xianglan was behind, and the two protected the small Qiaoqiao in the middle.

When he came to the outside of the tower, he saw that there was a platform more than three feet wide for him to settle on, and Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, it's very spacious." ”

"Yes, Qiaoqiao, open your eyes and take a look, I'm afraid this beautiful scenery is the only one I have seen in this life." Ma Xianglan also persuaded Qiaoqiao.

Qiaoqiao was frightened by the terrible sound of the wind in her ears, and she still closed her eyes with her legs trembling, just holding Zhao Hao's arm tightly with both hands, where did she dare to open her eyes to see?

Zhao Hao and Ma Xianglan had no choice but to ignore her, turned their heads and looked around, only to see mountains and rivers, everywhere, birds and clouds, within reach.

Take a closer look at the splendid imperial palace, the majestic civil and military yamen, the criss-crossing streets and alleys, the dense waterways and canals, as well as the houses, alleys, carriages and horses, and boats...... The huge, unattainable, and deep in the past are all presented at their feet like pictures.

At this time, the sun is setting, and the entire city of Nanjing is shrouded in golden light.

Listening to the crisp duo bell in his ears, Zhao Hao had no distractions, he finally found the answer that he had been looking for since he came to this world.

Why am I here? What am I going to do?

It turns out that I came here to make this glazed pagoda stand under the southern capital forever......

It turns out that I came here to keep the prosperity of this thousands of miles of China......

It turns out that I came here to let the world continue to crawl at the feet of China!

When he figured it out, he felt that the membrane that separated him from the world was silently broken.

~~

In early winter, the sun sets in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Zhao Hao and Ma Xianglan retreated to the tower with Qiaoqiao.

With both feet on the ground, Qiaoqiao finally opened her eyes and said with a crying voice, "My mother, it's terrible, I won't go to a high place again." ”

"yes." Xue Lang nodded thoughtfully and said, "We people should be down-to-earth, let's go down." ”

As I walked down, I saw a group of novices holding candles and oil cans, lighting lamps and refueling in front of windows.

When Zhao Hao and the others got out of the pagoda, when they looked back, they saw that the entire glazed pagoda was already brilliantly lit, and the treasure light flowed.

"It's so pretty!" Qiaoqiao couldn't help clapping her hands and said, "I knew I would have to watch it below, so why bother going up this time?" ”

"If you don't go on this trip, you will regret it for the rest of your life." Ma Xianglan shook her head and chuckled, but she leaned on Qiaoqiao's shoulder.

For most of the day, she was up and down, and her legs were already very sore, and she barely came down by holding on to the railing, and she was already crumbling at this time.

Although Zhao Hao is stronger than her, he is also tired enough.

Seeing that the city gate was also closed, Xuelang stayed with them for the night.

If Zhao Hao was alone, he would definitely let him live in his own house directly, and the two of them would have a good night talk.

But there are two female Tan Yue here, so it is naturally inconvenient to stay in the temple. Fortunately, there are many industries in Dabao'en Temple, and there are large rooms prepared for pilgrims outside the temple.

Xue Lang sent the three of them to a delicate courtyard, and asked the monk to be hospitable, and hurried back to his evening class.

The little novice brought hot water to let the three of them soak their feet to relieve their fatigue, and set up a feast to entertain the senior brother's guests.

The three of them were already hungry, and it was the first time they enjoyed the meal of Dabao'en Temple, so they naturally ate praise.

"Well, the meal of Da Bao'en Temple is really worthy of its reputation." Zhao Hao ate and drank to his heart's content, stretched his waist, and leaned on the Luohan bed and didn't want to move.

Qiaoqiao helped Xiao Shami clean up the tableware, Ma Xianglan was willing to help, but she couldn't stand up, so she had to sit on the other side of the Luohan bed and smile bitterly with Zhao Hao.

Taking advantage of Qiaoqiao's absence, Zhao Hao casually took out an envelope from his sleeve and handed it to Ma Xianglan and said, "I'll give you a small gift." ”
