The Eight Pagoda Temple is located on the Tang Lai Mountain, counting from the mountainside, going up to the top of the mountain, all of which belong to the category of the Eight Pagoda Temple. It is said that this Eight Pagoda Temple was built by the first generation of Situ Living Buddha when he was alive, and it took 34 years before it began to take shape, and now the Eight Pagoda Temple seen by the people of Dayue is completely built after experiencing the second and third generations of Living Buddha, and the future generations of monks and Buddhas also have many constructions, but it is just a pavilion and a path such a subtle action, and the grand scene of civil engineering at every turn has long been not the same day.

The name of the temple of the Eight Pagodas comes from the eight Eight Treasures Ruyi Pagoda in the temple, which is buried in the 'flesh' body of the first generation of Situ Living Buddha and his seven personal disciples, although the living Buddha of each generation is also buried in the temple, and slowly has nine towers and ten towers, but the name of this temple is still named after the "Eight Towers".

In addition to the eight treasures of the Ruyi Tower, the temple also has the scripture hall, the 'flower' temple, the treasure hall, the monk's house, etc., the whole temple covers an area of thousands of acres, not only the largest temple in the country of Dayue, even if you count the Beidi, the Central Plains region, it is also a top one of the world's great temples.

As soon as Princess Hua' Hate Willow and Princess Yuqing arrived at the foot of the mountain, there were monks waiting to greet them. For this treatment, 'Hua' hated Liu was not surprised, after all, he had made an appointment with Yan Shu to come here to see, whether it was a coincidence that he had this day, or he had already ordered people to wait here, the most useful thing was probably to take the monk's chariot and receive the Buddha's ceremony.

Regarding the fact that 'Hua' hated Liu and rode on the monk's chariot, others may seem to think that this is disrespectful to the Buddha, but they have forgotten one thing, that is, the identity of 'Hua' hating Liu is not a pure Buddha worshipper - in fact, if you ask him how much he believes in the Buddha, he may also say "I don't believe a word" This kind of rebellious words to the monks - the reason why he took the Sangha chariot with peace of mind is because he knows that the practice of forgiveness is not to respect himself, but to respect his identity - Mr. Chou.

This is also the reason why the 'flower' hates the willow and insists on not sitting halfway, as soon as the other party has respect, he naturally can't be brushed away as "Mr. Sorrow", so he has to pay tribute to others who respect him; Second, he himself has the identity of "Mr. Sorrow" and "enjoys" this treatment, but Princess Yuqing does not have this treatment - Mo said that Princess Yuqing, there is this kind of treatment in the whole world, maybe it is just a "Mr. Sorrow".

Therefore, in public and 'private', he still insisted on getting down from the monk's chariot after all, and walked with the monks from all over the way to climb the mountain step by step.

Fortunately, there are many pavilions for people to rest along the way, and there are also hot tea and stoves in some places, although they can't talk about blocking the wind, but when a group of people sit around and sit down, it is also much warmer.

'Flower' hated Liu also rested twice in the middle, and what made him wonder was that when this group of people sat together, they rarely 'communicated' anything, and even when they spoke, they almost only whispered something to the people next to them, and their ears were as sharp as his, and it was difficult to hear what the other party was saying if they didn't concentrate on their 'essence' when they sounded.

This is almost impossible to happen on a normal day!

However, since 'Hua' Hate Willow did indeed encounter this situation, it can only mean one thing: the other party did not speak clearly when he said this, so no matter how good 'Hua' Hate Willow's hearing is, those vague words that cannot be said from the mouths of others will not be able to "complete" the vague parts by themselves in his ears.

"Why do these people ...... when they speak" Princess Yuqing on the side also had this question, but unlike the 'flower' hating willow, she is the identity of the princess, even in this place of cultivating Buddha, the respect for the royal family still exists, and when she asks, it is much more direct than the 'flower' hating willow.

At this time, she asked one of the monks who was in charge of greeting the two of them, and judging from his words and deeds along the way, this one should have the highest status among the other six monks.

"It's a way for the monks to pay their respects to the living Buddha." He is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but when he laughs, he has a quietness that is higher than that of a normal person, after Princess Yuqing asked this, even if he understood what the other party wanted to express, although there was a move to interrupt the guest, but for some reason people felt that there was nothing wrong with his actions, especially Princess Yuqing herself, who felt a lot more comfortable when he interrupted, and seemed to save her a lot of work because of his words.

"What kind of homage is this?" 'Flower' hated Liu listened to his words, and looked at the people on the side of the road a few times.

"The name of the living Buddha...... The two of them thought they knew...... "Seeing that the 'flower' hated the willow had a question, the young monk raised his head slightly and stared at the top of the mountain before responding. 'Flower' hated Liu noticed that when the monk looked up at the top of the mountain, the rest of the monks and even the believers who had been hanging their heads to climb the mountain also seemed to have received some kind of signal, and they also looked up towards the top of the mountain, staring, calming, and the respect that was 'shot' out of the eyes could not see the slightest gesture, and the expression after gazing was like a heartfelt comfort bathed in the sun.

It's scary.

'Flower' hated Liu's heart, and the words that came to mind after reacting first turned out to be such a sentence.

When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but be shocked by his own thoughts, and when his eyes met Princess Yuqing's, they instantly understood that what they were thinking was the same as what they were thinking.

It's horrible!

However, after a moment, his expression returned to normal, and he remembered what the monk had just said, and asked, "What does this have to do with the Dharma name of the Living Buddha?" ”

"Naturally, it has a relationship." The monk nodded slightly, "Forgiveness, as heart; Be respectful, and act from the heart in words. ”

His words were to explain the word "forgiveness", but in the sound of "flower" hating willow, although this explanation was clear, it should not be what this monk should say. Why? Naturally, this is because the phrase "forgiveness is like the heart", no matter how you look at it, it seems like a Confucian teaching, but it has nothing to do with the Dharma he practiced.

Smart as a 'flower' hates willows, naturally she will not ask this question, and although Princess Yuqing is also smart, her mind is much simpler, and she chuckled and attracted the attention of the monk before asking: "What the master said seems to be taught by Mr. Teach in the Central Plains, but I don't know what is in common with the Dharma you practice on weekdays?" ”

"The little monk doesn't know." After Princess Yuqing asked, the monk blushed slightly and lowered his head, and only after a long time did he raise his head and say: "When I went down the mountain, the Living Buddha told me to answer like this, but I don't know why. ”

"You mean forgiveness...... The Living Buddha had long expected us to ask such a question? "'Flower' hated Liu was surprised in his heart, and he didn't notice it for a while, and he raised his voice directly to say the name of Yanshu, thinking that the people around him would be angry at him after hearing it, but the people around him didn't hear it, and those who should have rested continued to sit under the pavilion to rest, and those who should have climbed up did not slow down because of this, and after making sure that no one was dissatisfied with her words, 'Hua' hated Liu then put down his heart and asked the young monk.

"It's not exactly the same, but it's almost ......," the monk explained, adding: "I have just said that this is the spontaneous behavior of the believers, so it is a matter of their hearts whether they obey or not, and you don't have to worry about the dissatisfaction of these devout believers." ”

As soon as the monk said, the 'flower' hated the willow but felt a little embarrassed, but fortunately, Princess Yuqing came out to relieve the siege at this time, and said with a smile: "At this time, the living Buddha is forgiveness, and everyone will not speak, if there is a living Buddha called 'close your eyes' in the future, then when this group of people go up the mountain, won't they have to follow the rope to go up?" ”

Naturally, there will be no living Buddha named "Close Your Eyes" in the world, and Princess Yuqing's words are just a sentence to relieve the siege, but because she rarely says such words on weekdays, it seems a little strange at this time.

"The little monk's name is 'unknown'......" As soon as Princess Yuqing's words fell, the monk looked at her with a strange expression, and hesitated to say his name.

If you close your eyes, it will be dark, and when it is dark, it will be unclear.

For a while, even the 'flower' hated Liu couldn't help but wonder if God was going to use Princess Yuqing's mouth to point out the candidate for the next Situ Living Buddha of the Eight Pagoda Temple.

Fortunately, everyone didn't want to continue talking about this topic, so they each snorted, and just like a living person, they followed the 'tide' of people in front of them, and rushed to the top of the mountain in silence.

When the sky was getting dark when he reached the top of the mountain, the monk named "Unclear" placed the "flower" and princess Yuqing in two adjacent rooms and then retreated, and after someone brought pickles and porridge for dinner, no one came until nightfall.

Yan Shu didn't know where he went, or if there was something he was so busy that he couldn't get out of his body, and he didn't show up for a long time.

Just as 'Flower' hated Liu didn't want to wait and went to sleep instead, he came out of Princess Yuqing's room and just entered his guest room, but was startled by the monk sitting upright in the room.

However, this was only a moment of stunned work, and after a moment he got used to it, and walked up to the monk and said, "How long have you been here?" ”

"Just sat down." Naturally, the monk forgave him. It's just that the 'flower' hates the willow and doesn't know if it's an illusion or because of the 'color' of the moon, Yan Shu looks much paler than when he was in Xizhou, and the only thing that is no different from that time is probably his calm eyes. Since Bai Sheng's death, his eyes have always been so peaceful, and at this time, when he saw the 'flower' hate willow back, he was just as peaceful, and there was no joy when he saw the old 'handover'.

"It's all this time, you can come over tomorrow morning." 'Flower' hated Liu sat down, poured a cup of tea for Yan Shu and put it at his side, but after pouring a cup himself, he drank it in a hurry, as if he hadn't drunk water for a long time.

"Salty?" Yanshu asked with a chuckle.

"I thought that the pickles in this temple were different from the pickles in the world, but it turned out that they couldn't eat 'meat', and they were all the same thirst if they ate too much." 'Flower' hated Willow grumbled and filled the empty teacup again, teasing.

"This is the world, so how can it be any different from the world......" Yan Shu shook his head lightly.

"Oh?" 'Flower' hated Liu was slightly surprised, and asked rhetorically, "I don't know what the master thinks of as 'earthly'?" ”

"What is like here is what the world is like." Yan Shu didn't care about the fact that 'Hua' hated Liu for calling himself a "master", and as he spoke, he pointed to his 'chest', which is where the 'door' of a person's heart is.

The meaning of forgiveness is that the world is a person's heart, and what is in the heart is what the world is.

"Isn't that a contradiction?" 'Flower' hated Liu and asked rhetorically.

"What's the contradiction?" Yan Shu chuckled and asked rhetorically.

"Isn't it a contradiction to be in the worldly world and in the world, but everywhere to pay attention to getting out of the world and into the dust?"

"Where is the contradiction between not being confined to external objects and loving the heart?" Yan Shu shook his head slightly, not agreeing with the view that 'Flower' hated Willow.

In particular, what makes the 'flower' hate willow speechless is the words quoted when Yan Shu answers, but it is also like the sentence "Forgiveness is like the heart" during the day, which is only said by Confucians.

"I came at this time because I couldn't come during the day, and coming at this time is not different from coming during the day......" I didn't see the 'flower' hating willow in response, and said again, but this sentence was the answer to the previous question that 'flower' hated the willow.

"Isn't that a contradiction in what you say?" 'Hua' hated Liu was a lot more careful when he said it this time, because he had suffered the previous loss, and mentioned the "contradiction" again, he subconsciously tried to repeatedly speculate about what was wrong before asking.

"I don't know where the contradiction is?" Fang 'Hua' hated Liu and called him "master", and at this time he replied to 'Hua' and hated Liu as "sir", and the two of them could be regarded as reconciled to each other, except for the content of the conversation between the two, just the name of the two to each other was enough to write a pioneering 'sex' stroke in history.

Of course, if the content of the two people's words is included, then this "pioneering 'sexual' stroke" will be somewhat funny, which should be something that the world does not want.

"If you first say that you can't come during the day, and that night is no different from daytime, isn't that also the same as saying that night can't come?" Regarding the inconsistencies in this point, the 'flower' hated willow still has the certainty that it makes no sense in terms of meaning.

"I say that you can't come during the day, because during the day the temple is different from at night. I say that day is no different from night, that it is passable for me day and night...... There's nothing wrong with that, right? ”

"What is not the same in this temple during the day as it is at night?" 'Hua' hated Liu and sneered, and said in his heart that this remark was a strong word.

"There are more people during the day, but fewer people at night." Yan Shu was not annoyed, and explained lightly.

"There are a lot of people...... and few people...... Is there a difference? "'Flower' hated Liu for a while, and he didn't understand what Yan Shu was trying to express.

"There are a lot of people...... Many people saw me; When there are fewer people, there are fewer people who see me. ”

"The people who see you...... Could it be that now I see Situ Living Buddha and still have to give money? What about letting the believers and monks see you? Isn't it true that after becoming a living Buddha, people can't see it? "Flower" hated Liu and laughed.

"Originally...... It's no different. Yan Shu chuckled in response, and without waiting for the 'flower' to hate Liu to speak, he continued: "It's just that if they knew that this living Buddha was a blind man, and that he was crawling little by little by 'groping' in the temple, it would be very different......

"Blind?" 'Flower' hated Liu was slightly startled, looking at Yan Shu's smiling face and his calm eyes, his eyes couldn't help but think about Yan Shu's body, although the light in the room was darker, but if he looked closely, Yan Shu's monk's robe did look a lot dirty, and it was clear that he was crawling on the ground!

"This ...... What's going on? "'Hua' hated Liu and stood up in shock, you must know that just a few days ago, he saw Yan Shu is still a person who can see the road clearly, how come he has become a blind man in less than half a month?

This would explain why he came at night, why he said that day and night are no different, and that for a blind man, are not both day and night dark?

"I used some techniques before, this can be regarded as a backlash." Yanshu chuckled, at this time, when 'Hua' hated Liu looked at his eyes again, the "calm" he originally thought had become "dazed" at this time, although it was not obvious, but he could still read a few points from it, according to what 'Hua' hated Liu, I am afraid that Yanshu was also trying to get used to it, but it was still far from reaching the ideal state.

"Spells?" "Flower" hated Liu frowned, "You mean ''chicken' ribs'?" ”

Regarding the technique of "'chicken' ribs", the 'flower' hated Liu also heard about it from Yang Wu later, but he expected that Yan Shu would not use it to do anything bad, so he didn't take this matter to heart, but at this time, it seemed that he was counterattacked because of this technique, and it had to be said that it was unexpected.

"Let's not mention this......" Yan Shu chuckled and shook his head, although he smiled, but 'Hua' hated Liu could also see that he was still a little unwilling to be blind.

"After today, if you are used to staying in the temple, you can take the princess around and have a look. I have told them before, except for the heavy land and the forbidden land, if you want to go, just go. However, if you want to talk to me, then you can only find a monk to take you to me......" Speaking of this, he smiled again, but this time when he laughed, it was much more natural and heartfelt than Fang Cai's laughter, and while laughing, he pointed to the direction outside the 'door' and said: "You know, a person crawls over in the middle of the night, not to mention the hard work, if it is rumored that my Eight Pagoda Temple is haunted in the middle of the night, then it can't be said anyway!" Hahahaha......"

He laughed as he spoke, but 'Flower' hated Willow but didn't know whether to laugh or be silent. Fortunately, Yan Shu's laughter quickly fell, and the two were silent for a while, Yan Shu stood up and took a sip of the teacup in his hand and put it down, and then said: "It's not too early, you rest, I'll go back and rest." ”

"I'll send you ......" 'Flower' hated Liu heard that he was leaving, and involuntarily said such words, and only after saying it did he realize that he might not be as familiar with this temple as he could no longer see, and sat down again.

"I'm going to go by myself, there aren't many opportunities like this, so I should always take advantage of it." Laughing, he forgave himself for 'groping' out of the 'door', and he really lay on the ground as he said before, and crawled into the night little by little.
