What’s the explanation for Chapter 287? !
Lingyin Temple is a famous temple within a radius of thousands of miles. Deep in the temple, it is said that Master Jindan is in charge! !
It has been more than ten years since Gu Changsheng bribed Senior Brother Guangji of Lingyin Temple to become a monk in Lingyin Temple.
He seemed to still clearly remember the scene when Senior Brother Guangji arranged for him to enter Lingyin Temple.
"Junior brother, this matter of yours is very difficult to handle, eh, eh, junior brother, don't be anxious, it's not that it can't be done, you have to pay more!!"
Brother Jiaqian, Brother Guangji!
In a flash, it has been more than ten years since Gu Changsheng "squandered all his wealth" and entered Lingyin Temple.
Thirteen years! !
In these more than ten years, he quietly integrated into Lingyin Temple.
Not many people still remember his name when he was a layman.
I only know that his current Buddhist name is Xuanzang.
Senior Brother Xuanzang! !
“Dong, dong, dong…”
The empty valley and the secluded mountains.
The sound of someone knocking on wooden fish is very rhythmic. After the sound of knocking on wooden fish started, it didn’t stop for a long time.
From time to time, there are people chanting Buddhist scriptures silently.
Accompanied by the sound of tapping wooden fish.
"Dong dong dong!!"
Merit +1, +1, +1, +1, +1...
. .
The man knocking the wooden fish on the mountain behind the temple is wearing a plain cassock, his eyes are slightly closed, his skin is fair and pure, and his appearance has nothing to do with outstanding appearance. At best, it can only be said to be delicate.
If you ignore his temperament as an immortal cultivator.
I can only say that it is ordinary.
And this person is Gu Changsheng who chose to become a monk here in Lingyin Temple, and his monkhood is not a real monk! !
Maybe I am tired and want to rest for a while.
Or maybe you just want to find a place to spend some time.
That’s all.
Lingyin Temple is a temple under the Lingyin Temple of the Zhen Sect of Buddhism. The so-called Zhen Sect of Buddhism is actually almost equivalent to the Yuanying Sect! !
But it is different from the decent families in the Shangqing Domain.
Buddhism is actually unified in name. Dazhen Buddhist Temple is the main altar and holy land of Buddhism. Both Lingyin Temple and Dalingyin Temple can actually be said to be under the jurisdiction of Dazhen Buddhist Temple.
But there are so many large and small temples throughout the Western Region.
How can a mere Dazhen Buddhist temple be managed, unless all the people in the main temple don't rest and don't practice cultivation at all times?
If you want to govern the entire world of cultivating immortals in the Western Regions, you still have to rely on these large and small temples.
Although Lingyin Temple has the highest authority, only Jindan is in charge.
But within a radius of several thousand miles, or even tens of thousands of miles, it is undoubtedly the largest and most famous temple! !
It is located on a third-level spiritual mountain with good fortune.
There are many small temples and temples under Lingyin Temple.
As for why Gu Changsheng chose Lingyin Temple instead of becoming a monk in a larger temple, it was because he did not want to expose himself. After all, he did not wear a mask on his face now.
It is worth mentioning that Lingyin Temple is not far from Jiang State!
After all, he had stayed in the Jiang Kingdom for several years and became a monk, so he had to have an identity, right? !
Feeling the moisture coming from the sky, the wooden fish that he was tapping paused for a moment, but then he continued to tap slowly, and at the same time, a sound came from his mouth.
"All conditioned dharmas are like bubbles in a dream. Like dew or lightning, we should observe it like this..."
"Crash!!"
The sound of thunder and rain!
Forty-eight thousand temples in the Western Region, many towers in the mist.
Gu Changsheng actually didn't care about his identity.
I don’t care about my own methods of becoming an immortal.
Immortals, demons, Buddhas...
There are thousands of ways and means, and all of them can become immortals! !
Perhaps many people have misjudged him and misidentified him, but he is always him.
…
……
Two years later.
It has been two full years since Gu Changsheng entered Lingyin Temple and became a monk.
And in all these years, he has never left Lingyin Temple.
In the eyes of outsiders, Master Xuanzang’s wholehearted devotion to worshiping Buddha can indeed make people feel ashamed! !
Along with the green lanterns and ancient Buddhas all day long, don’t you feel bored? !
Hiss!
Master Xuanzang is so terrifying! !
But in fact, Gu Changsheng was too lazy to leave Lingyin Temple. After all, he had just walked outside for more than thirty years, and he was too lazy to go out again.
But in the eyes of outsiders, there is not much difference between Master Xuanzang and an ascetic monk.
Ascetics are ascetics.
He is actually very satisfied with his current life in Lingyin Temple.
It’s plain and quiet! !
Over the years, he has not only been worshiping Buddha, but also earning spiritual stones in exchange for some resources. His consciousness and sword intention have been slowly improving. Although it is very slow, it is still there. Improved.
In this way, as time goes by, your own strength will gradually improve, which is actually a kind of happiness! !
Well, a kind of happiness for an immortal like him!
For normal people, this may be a great horror as their lifespan passes! !
Those who learn from me will live, and those who resemble me will die.
Short-lived species can never understand immortal species, just like mortals can't understand these immortal cultivators who are like real immortals! !
"Junior Brother Xuanzang, Senior Brother Guangshen has gone down the mountain to beg for alms and slay demons. We don't know the return date at the moment. In these days, Junior Brother, you will be the one to interpret the fortunes for the pilgrims instead of Senior Brother Guangshen."
A The monk in bright red cassock came to the back mountain and spoke to Gu Changsheng.
"Amitabha, I understand, senior brother."
Gu Changsheng put down the Buddhist scripture in his hand and said.
Undo the signature? !
Isn't it just cheating? At most, if there are some fortune master's ways in it, with his status as a second-level fortune master, there will be no problem at all.
I didn’t expect that his life master would actually come in handy one day.
Before Senior Brother Guangshen comes back, all the lots in Lingyin Temple will be solved temporarily by Gu Changsheng! !
Of course not all the lots are drawn. Lingyin Temple is the largest and most famous within a radius of thousands of miles. It is also the most popular temple. There are countless people who come to offer incense and ask for lots every day.
Most of them are taken care of by ordinary monks below. Those who can be received by a foundation-building cultivator like Gu Changsheng are the distinguished guests of the temple! !
There may not be many in a day.
In general, it was very relaxing and did not waste much of his time.
The days pass by.
It has been three or four months since Senior Brother Guangshen went down the mountain to beg for alms and slay demons, but Senior Brother Guangshen still hasn’t come back. I don’t know when he will come back!
This is what cultivators are like.
A trip may last several years, or even more than ten years.
These are still immortal cultivators whose realms are not high. High-level immortal cultivators may be even more exaggerated! !
In the past three or four months, Gu Changsheng has already become accustomed to the new job he is now responsible for. With the skills of a second-level life master, he can get started easily.
Even, there is no need to use the skills of his life master at all!
I don’t know if these pilgrims are too easy to fool or something! !
His identity as a fortune teller was completely unnecessary.
Perhaps because he did a good job, he also received praise from the only golden elixir in Lingyin Temple, as well as some modest rewards, at least, not much to him.
This did not move him, and he always maintained a state of indifference. However, on this day, his mood was the most volatile in more than ten years! !
One day.
Gu Changsheng came to interpret the pilgrims' signatures as usual, but a figure inside made him slightly stunned.
What a graceful figure this is.
Graceful and graceful, one can tell from just the back view that the owner of this figure should be of national beauty and beauty. The most important thing is that he feels very familiar.
After being stunned for a moment, Gu Changsheng came back to his senses.
Put your hands together and say softly: "Amitabha..."
"Donor, do you want to undo the signature?"
Gu Changsheng walked into the hall and asked.
And when the female donor in front of him turned around, she was indeed beautiful and fragrant. Her face was as round as an oval, and even without makeup, she was already extremely beautiful! !
No wonder he feels familiar when looking at his back.
Indeed, it should be familiar to people, once an old friend.
"Donor? Female benefactor?!" Gu Changsheng clasped his hands together and said.
"Uh... I'm sorry, the master looks very much like a person I once knew. May I ask the name of the master?" The female pilgrim came back to her senses and explained, then asked.
"The poor monk's Buddhist name is Xuanzang."
"What is the lay name of Master Xuanzang?!" the female pilgrim asked.
"The matters of the secular world are in the past. The poor monk devotes himself to worshiping the Buddha and will no longer mention the matters of the secular world." Gu Changsheng closed his eyes slightly and said.
"Really?..."
"..."
The pilgrim looked straight at Gu Changsheng.
Gu Changsheng closed his eyes slightly and avoided it.
"What kind of signature does the donor want?" Gu Changsheng chose to change the topic.
"Seeking marriage." The female pilgrim said with a slight smile.
Gu Changsheng: "..."
The way of the fortune teller is blessed on this bamboo tube.
While shaking slightly, a spiritual wood bamboo stick fell out.
"Master, what does this sign mean?"
The female pilgrim picked up the bamboo stick and asked.
Gu Changsheng glanced at the bamboo stick, and then let out a long sigh.
“If the donor can let go, marriage will not be difficult, but...if he cannot let go, marriage will be very bumpy and difficult to find, and he may be...alone for the rest of his life.”
In life. The bamboo stick drawn with the blessing of the Master's Way is, at least, much more accurate than the randomly shaken bamboo stick, but it is a bad sign! !
If other pilgrims get such a sign.
I was afraid that I had already started to panic, but the female pilgrim in front of me started to laugh.
Under the compassionate golden Buddha statue, she smiled and said:
"If I can't be with the person I like, I won't be happy even if I ascend to immortality!"
Gu Changsheng glanced at her in surprise, then Then he closed his eyes: "Amitabha."
He once thought that ascending to immortality was the goal of all immortal cultivators, but later he realized that it was not the case. For some people, there are many things in this world. It is more important than ascending to immortality! !
But obviously, Gu Changsheng was not included in this.
Because, he is a normal person! !
In order to ascend and become an immortal, he lost too many things. For him, nothing in this world is more important than this!
Even, even...
After this day, Gu Changsheng's days became lively.
The female pilgrim who asked for the lottery that day would always appear in front of him.
No matter how far the journey is, he will appear when he least expects it, no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter! !
Even the entire Lingyin Temple knew about this.
But it’s hard for others to say anything. After all, this female pilgrim has always been pestering Gu Changsheng alone. She can’t just send the pilgrims who come to her door away, right? !
I have no choice but to suffer from Brother Xuanzang! !
Some people are even discussing how long Tang Xuanzang can last?
After all, few people can persist with such a beautiful and beautiful pilgrim! !
Perhaps, one day, Tang Xuanzang will ask the temple to return to secular life. After all, it is normal for him to become a monk halfway and then return home halfway.
Senior Brother Guangshen, please come back quickly. I may not be able to do this job of declaring signatures!
Time passes day after day, year after year.
One year, two years, three years... ten years!
For ten years, Gu Changsheng remained unmoved, which really frightened many people in the temple. Is this boy so determined to worship the Buddha? !
Many people have changed their views on Gu Changsheng and began to feel that he could really persevere and would not return to secular life.
Gu Changsheng is no longer in charge of interpreting the fortune tellers, but whenever this female pilgrim arrives, he is still responsible for interpreting the fortune tellers. Master Jindan in the temple acquiesces. about this matter.
I don’t know how much incense money was given to the temple? !
And during these years, this female pilgrim who signed a contract still did not give up. She came to Lingyin Temple several times every year, and the time she stayed there each time was different, no matter it was spring, summer, autumn or winter! !
It can be said that they are already the most loyal group of pilgrims in Lingyin Temple.
And this year is no exception.
At this time, on the back mountain.
“Dong dong dong!”
The crisp sound of hitting the wooden fish sounds very rhythmic.
“Monk, I may get married after I go back this time. Are you sure you really don’t want to take me away?!”
Next to the wooden fish, a national beauty lies The Tianxiang woman asked, supporting her head with her two little hands.
Gu Changsheng's hand paused slightly, but the sound of tapping the wooden fish continued. It sounded like the rhythm of tapping the merit refresher was still the same.
“Boom.”
Merit +1...
"Dong."
Merit +1...
"Dong!"
Merit +1 again.
"Well, I know I can't fool you!"
The female pilgrim angrily glared at Gu Changsheng who was knocking the wooden fish with his eyes closed. She almost wanted to knock his head on the spot like a wooden fish to see if he was a human being. It’s a lump of wood, or anyone who knocks on a wooden fish is dumbfounded! !
The female pilgrim left angrily.
Only the figure behind him who was still tapping the wooden fish kept moving his hands.
After a long time, he finally stopped what he was doing and opened his eyes.
"Gu is really not a good man..."
He said softly.
Then, close your eyes.
Keep tapping the merit refresher in front of you! !
“Boom, boom, boom!”
The long and crisp sound of wooden fish echoed on the mountain behind the temple.
Unconsciously, twenty-five years have passed since he came to Lingyin Temple.
This year, he is one thousand four hundred and fifty-five years old!
It has been decades since I came to the Buddha Realm. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get another Ningying spiritual object! !
