Chapter 8: Taking Over (I)
8.8 Takeover (Part I)
Xue Yue set up his combat headquarters in the deepest part of the Great Xiangguo Temple, and it stands to reason that Huang Haoran and Cheng Qian could go to the front of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion to meet again, but Cheng Qian asked Huang Hao to meet him in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall on the phone.

There is still a considerable distance from the Daxiong Treasure Hall to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and it seems that Cheng Qian wants to communicate with Huang Haoran in private first, and discuss how to speak so as not to hurt Xue Yue's self-esteem, and then go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to meet Xue Yue.
The small Zen temple where Huang Haoran stayed is located next to the Tianwang Palace, some distance from the Daxiong Treasure Palace. The Zen courtyard where Cheng Qian stayed was next to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, so it would definitely be Cheng Qian who arrived at the meeting place first.
Daxiangguo Temple covers an area of hundreds of acres, the building in the temple is magnificent, and it is naturally quite time-consuming to walk around. In order not to make Cheng Qian wait too long, after Huang Haoran hung up the phone, he immediately took Xu Zilong and a squad of guards out of the door.
Passing through a corridor covered with yellow and green glazed tiles, Huang Haoran came to the middle gate of the Tianwang Palace. Tianwang Hall five rooms and three doors, the eaves pick the corner, the yellow glazed tile covers the top, there is a Maitreya Buddha sitting statue in the center, the eyebrows are kind, the smile is open, sitting on the lotus pot. It is said that Maitreya Buddha is the future Buddha who will descend to the world as the successor of Shakyamuni 24,000 years later. On both sides of the statue of Maitreya Buddha stand the four heavenly kings, all of them with round eyes and angry eyes, and have the potential to destroy all evil in the world. The person who holds the bead and holds the snake is the wide-eyed king, and he is named for standing tall and seeing far; The person holding the red umbrella is the King of Knowledge, who is known for his knowledge; The sword bearer is the king of growth, and he hopes that the good heart and good roots of the world will grow greatly; In the end, the king of the country who holds the pipa in his arms plays the music of the eight directions and protects the peace of all nations.
The north side of the Tianwang Palace is a garden rockery, the scenery is elegant, quite has the wonder of "winding path leads to secluded place, Zen room flowers and trees are deep". Huang Haoran walked along the trail for a while and arrived at the release pool.
The release pond is a facility found in many Buddhist temples. Generally, it is an artificially dug pond, and in order to embody the Buddhist heart of "compassion for all living beings", believers will release various aquatic animals here. As one of the most famous temples in China, the release pond in the temple will naturally not be as stingy as the release pond of the ordinary small temple, the huge pond is rippling, and an extremely delicate jade belt bridge spans the pond, full of style!
Huang Haoran walked on the jade belt bridge and looked at the fish in the pond, feeling very relaxed. At this time, Xu Zilong said something beside him, which made Huang Haoran immediately lose interest.
"Vice-seater, you said that those monks in the temple will not come to the edge of this pond at night to steal fish to eat?"
Huang Haoran turned his head and glared at Xu Zilong fiercely, and then said in a low voice: "Hugh's nonsense! This release pond is a place where every time the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have Christmas or important Buddhist activities, the good men and women in Kaifeng City will gather by the release pond to hold the release ceremony! If these words are heard by those good men and women, they will not spare you! β
Xu Zilong reached out and touched his neck, and said with a smile: "That's not necessarily!" Deputy seat, you don't know if there is a 'flower monk' like Lu Zhishen in the current Daxiangguo Temple! Maybe they have a tradition of eating meat here! β
Huang Haoran didn't pay attention to Xu Zilong's "crazy words" anymore, he estimated the time in his heart, Cheng Qian should have arrived in front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, as the deputy commander of the 1st War Zone, where did he not let his boss wait for him!
After crossing the jade belt bridge, I saw an iron "ten thousand years" Baoding. There are six floors in this six-story Baoding, and I am afraid that it weighs several tons! "Ten Thousand Years" Baoding implies six different meanings: "The first layer of heaven and earth flow together, the second layer of the ring fragrance and fragrance, the third layer of Yongzhen Mountain Gate, the fourth layer of the universal Xun Dharma realm, the fifth layer of incense smoke is ethereal, and the sixth layer of clouds rises." "It should be the thing of the Great Xiangguo Temple to suppress luck.
Behind the "10,000 years" Baoding is the famous Daxiong Treasure Palace. Daxiong Treasure Hall is the main hall of Daxiangguo Temple, heavy eaves and arches, carved beams and paintings, gold and blue are intertwined. Dozens of small lions are carved on the surrounding bluestone railings, which are vivid and very cute.
Huang Haoran saw Cheng Qian and his adjutant standing in the small square in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall talking from afar, thinking that it was mostly related to Huang Haoran's command of the Battle of Lanfeng instead of Xue Yue.
Cheng Qian's boss is really competent! Burdened with tremendous pressure from the highest authorities, he has not forgotten to protect his subordinates. Xue Yue was actually a kind of luck to be able to work under a chief like Cheng Qian.
At the same time that Huang Haoran saw Cheng Qian, Cheng Qian's personal guard also saw Huang Haoran. The guard officer with the rank of colonel just wanted to lean in and tell Cheng Qian that Huang Haoran had arrived, but Huang Haoran shouted loudly:
"Song Gong! I'm late! Sorry to keep you waiting! β
Huang Haoran's voice saved Cheng Qian's personal guard the trouble of reporting, and Cheng Qian and his adjutant turned around in the direction that Huang Haoran came at the same time, looking at Huang Haoran with a smile.
"Youchen, you're here so fast! I live next to this Daxiong Treasure Hall, and I actually arrived half a step earlier than you! β
Cheng Qian's attitude was still as friendly as when he first met Huang Haoran, and his adjutant didn't speak, just kept nodding and smiling at Huang Haoran.
At the same time as ending this greeting, Huang Haoran also just finished the last distance between him and Cheng Qian and came to Cheng Qian.
Since Xu Zilong was not a general, he was several levels worse than Huang Haoran and Cheng Qian, so he could only take another half step back and stand behind Huang Haoran. Although Cheng Qian's adjutant was a major general, he obviously didn't have the right to speak on such an occasion now, so Cheng Qian's adjutant took the same method as Xu Zilong, and took half a step back and stood behind Cheng Qian.
"Gong Song, you take care of my face, and you shouldn't expose my shortcomings in front of so many people! I, Huang Youchen, appreciate it! β
"Where, where! Youchen, you're so polite! This thing is lost by others! As the saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want to do to yourself! β
What Huang Haoran said was still some unnutritious clichΓ©s, but what Cheng Qian said seemed to mean something.
"Do unto others what you don't want to do to yourself", how does this sentence sound Cheng Qian's persuasion to Huang Haoran. The subtext is that I hope Huang Haoran doesn't do it, Xue Yue can't get off the stage, leave a line in everything, and see you in the future!
"That's nature! Face is a thing, if you give it to others, others will give it to you! β
Since Cheng Qian didn't make the matter clear, Huang Haoran used an ambiguous answer, and the few words he answered were as if he had promised something, but also as if he hadn't said anything!
No wonder the highest authorities take such care of Huang Haoran! Huang Haoran is not only younger than Xue Yue! The feats are even more impressive! Even the city in the chest is deeper! It's really compared to Xue Yue everywhere!
If Xue Yue had been replaced, he would have been unable to catch the puns that Cheng Qian said just now!
Cheng Qian looked at Huang Haoran thoughtfully, and accidentally said the feeling in his heart:
"Both Shengyu, He Shengliang ....."
Of course, Huang Haoran knew what Cheng Qian's words meant, but he pretended to turn around and talk to Xu Zilong, and did not hear Cheng Qian's speechlessness.
Cheng Qian's distraction time was very short, but after a second or two of effort, Cheng Qian's expression returned to normal.
"Come, come, come! Youchen, let's talk as we go! β
Cheng Qian's answer surprised his adjutant! Things are going a little differently than they had discussed beforehand!
According to the consensus reached by Cheng Qian and his adjutant before Huang Haoran's arrival, the two of them wanted one to sing red face and the other white face to lure Huang Haoran into the bait! But now that he has only said two or three sentences, Chief Cheng has actually changed his mind!?
Huang Haoran's answer just now was completely vague, how could Chief Cheng take Huang Haoran to see Xue Yue so reassuringly?
However, doubts are doubts, and Cheng Qian's adjutant still kept his mouth shut. The dialogue between the chief and deputy commanders of the 1st Theater of Operations was not his turn to interject one of his adjutants.
Cheng Qian and Huang Haoran walked into the Daxiong Hall side by side, and Xu Zilong and Cheng Qian's adjutant followed closely with the guards. The Mahavira Hall enshrines the three Buddhas of Shakyamuni, Amitabha Buddha and Medicine Buddha, all of which are one foot and three feet high, followed by the island Guanyin of Pudu sentient beings, which is based on the story of the good fortune boy in the Huayan Sutra. The east and west walls are dedicated to the eighteen Arhats.
Huang Haoran looked at the arhats on both sides of the Daxiong Treasure Hall and said casually: "Xue Boling set up the former enemy headquarters in this Great Xiangguo Temple, what a wonderful move!" Completely escaped the sight of Japanese agents and traitors! For so many days, the Japanese bombers have not dropped a single bomb, and those who don't know may think that it is the work of these bodhisattvas and arhats! β
Hearing Huang Haoran praise Xue Yue, Cheng Qian's face showed a smile, in fact, in Cheng Qian's opinion, Xue Yue's performance in this Lanfeng Battle was still competent, if it wasn't for Gui Yongqing's soft egg, how could the 1st War Zone let the Tufeiyuan Division run away?
"Xue Boling is indeed a little anxious, but unfortunately, the timing is not very good.....
Cheng Qian's words were fluttering, if it weren't for Huang Haoran's very thorough understanding of the relationship between Cheng Qian and Xue Yue, he would have thought that Cheng Qian was ready to let him stay out of the matter.
Behind the Daxiong Hall is the Arhat Palace, Cheng Qian and Huang Haoran The destination of this trip is the Tibetan Scripture Building, which is located behind the Luohan Palace, so it is definitely the fastest shortcut to pass through the Luohan Palace.
This Luohan Hall is also known as the "Octagonal Glazed Palace", it has a peculiar structure, it is an octagonal cloister type building, it is unique, and it is rare in the world. There is a large group statue "Sakyamuni Lecture Meeting" in the corridor of the hall, the posture of the five hundred Arhats is different, the shape is vivid, they are either in the mountains and forests, or between the small bridges and flowing waters, or sit or lie down, or raise the head, or bow the head, the form is realistic, the interest is infinite, it can be called a masterpiece of art.
In the middle of the Luohan Palace, there is a wooden structure octagonal pavilion standing tall, and there is a wooden statue of Guanyin with a thousand hands and a thousand eyes on all sides, which is unique.
