The morning is foggy and there is a gurgling stream.
It was already the end of Mao Shi, and the morning bell of Hanling Temple had already rang. The light in the wilderness was already bright, but the mountains and forests were a little dim.
The stone steps going up the mountain are well built and spacious. There are ancient trees on both sides. It does not affect the climbing, but it is difficult to see the scenery in the distance clearly.
Of course the five hundred imperial guards were walking at the front, followed closely by many officials from the Guanli Hall and the Hanlin Academy, then the students from the Wu Dynasty, then the students from the Three Kingdoms, and finally the Five hundred imperial guards cut off the rear.
So the team stretched out long and winding on the mountain steps, like a long dragon.
The students were chattering about the story of Hanling Temple, or they were surprised by the strange flowers and plants on the roadside. Suddenly they heard a roaring sound, turned a corner, and saw a waterfall flying down like a white dragon into the sea. .
As a result, water mist rose and filled the mountains and fields, moistening the flowers, trees, and people here.
"There is a Tianhu above Hanshan Temple. The water of this waterfall comes from Tiantian Lake, so this scene is called the Milky Way Upside Down. But most of the people who come to Hanling Temple are devout believers. Listening to the evening drums and morning bells here is to burn a stick of incense in front of the Buddha to pray for the Buddha's blessings. Therefore, the name of Hanling Temple's evening drums and morning bells has spread widely, and these scenes have become much faded."
Fan Tianning walked with Fu Xiaoguan with Dry Cicada. He looked at the waterfall and talked, "It's a pity that the sun has not risen at this time. Otherwise, if there was sunlight falling on this waterfall, you might be able to see the seven-color rainbow."
Fu Xiaoguan looked at Fan Tianning in surprise, "How do you know?"
"Because I read a lot of miscellaneous books, Hanling Temple is recorded in the book "Travel Notes of One Hundred and Eighty Temples", which was written by the wandering monk three hundred years ago. He spent his whole life traveling around Tian Xia, who lived in Landa Temple in his later years, wrote the detailed appearance of one hundred and eighty temples."
So Buddhism is prosperous in this world, but what about Taoism?
It seemed that he had never heard of it except from the Taoist Academy. Fu Xiaoguan thought that he would have to ask his senior brother about this when he returned home.
Passing through the mist of the waterfall and continuing along the stone steps, the light becomes brighter and you can vaguely see the red walls and green tiles hidden in the forest. These buildings are quite scattered. I think they are Hanling Temple. The place where monks live.
Going further up, there is the smell of incense in the air.
Looking far away, you can see the smoke curling up in the dense forest, and you can faintly hear the monks singing in the temple during their morning classes.
"I think that's the front hall, where the Heavenly King's Palace is located, and the main venue of this cultural gathering is in the back mountain, next to Tianhu." Fan Tianning explained to Fu Xiaoguan, looking at Fu Xiaoguan's confused eyes. , smiled and said: "You are very busy, but I am very free. To tell you the truth, I have already been to Hanling Temple once, on the second day after you were injured. I came early in the morning, wandered around for a day, and listened to After listening to the evening drums and morning bells here, I stayed in the temple for a night and went down the mountain on the second day."
"For this cultural gathering, many new buildings were built in the back mountain, mainly residences. After all, thousands of people have to be accommodated. Where can there be so many guest houses in the temple?"
"After a while, you will know when you go to the back mountain. The place is very good, and the sky and lake are vast. Just beside the lake, a huge Buddha was newly built. When I went to see it, many people were shaping the golden statue of the Buddha. The body is already completed. It is several times taller than the Buddha in Landa Temple!"
While Fan Tianning, the free guide, was explaining, a magnificent mountain gate appeared in front of Fu Xiaoguan and others.
On the mountain gate are written three golden characters: Hanling Temple!
There is still a couplet engraved on both sides of the mountain gate, which is quite interesting:
Are you coming to pray? He thought about how many crimes he had committed and bowed to this place.
Who is the speaker? He must break away from his feelings and speak some warning words to shock people's ears.
"These couplets and characters were all written by Princess Zhengyang when Hanling Temple was first built. It is really amazing!"
Fu Xiaoguan is convinced. From this point of view, the Princess Zhengyang five hundred years ago had a very deep understanding of Buddhist scriptures, otherwise she would not be able to write such a warning couplet.
Go through this mountain gate and proceed about 500 meters. The mountain road forks. The mountain road going left is wide, but the mountain road going right is slightly narrow.
"This is the way to the back mountain."
The team walked to the right, and as soon as they turned around the ridge, a towering Buddha came into everyone's sight!
It is actually half the height taller than that ancient tree!
At this moment, the morning sun is rising, and the golden sunlight falls on the golden body of the Buddha, emitting a bright light. Against the background of the blue sky, it seems that there is really a colorful holy light on the back of the Buddha!
"Is it big?"
Fu Xiaoguan nodded, "It's so big!"
"It is said that it took eight years to carve this giant Buddha alone. Emperor Wen was so courageous, I don't know how much money it cost."
After walking for another stick of incense, everyone arrived at the foot of the Buddha. This was a huge square with a clean and smooth marble floor. Under the big Buddha is a high platform, which seems to be a place for worship.
Behind the Buddha is the Tianhu Lake with rising mist.
Fu Xiaoguan looked around and saw that there were many buildings built around the square. They did not look like temples, but they were quite similar to the buildings in Jinling.
I think those buildings are where the students of this literary conference live.
Sure enough, when everyone arrived at the square here, officials from Guanli Hall and Hanlin Academy came to arrange the residence of these students.
The official who came to Fu Xiaoguan was Wen Canghai, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy!
"According to the instructions of Mr. Zhou, the master of Tianji Pavilion, I will take you to another place."
As Fan Tianning watched in surprise, Fu Xiaoguan and his entourage left the square with Wen Canghai, but they did not go to the temple on the front mountain, but walked into the forest on the left.
There is a quiet path here, and it runs through the forest again, so it is getting farther and farther away from the big Buddha. After walking for about three sticks of incense, Wen Canghai stopped.
Fu Xiaoguan saw an exquisite property!
It is located next to Tianhu Lake. There are no pines and ancient trees around, but there is a pear orchard in full bloom!
They walked to the main entrance of the villa, looked up and saw the lintel on the vermilion door. Fu Xiaoguan was shocked. The lintel read with horror: Yunqing Villa in four golden characters!
Wen Canghai saw Fu Xiaoguan's expression and said with a smile: "It has been five years since this courtyard was built. Your Majesty will come here to stay for a while every year when the pear blossoms bloom. The environment here is quiet, and there are thirty palace maids inside. Everything is ready...but Mr. Zhou gave an instruction, saying that it was His Majesty's wish - if you have time, can you pick some pear blossoms and bring them back to make a pot of tea for His Majesty?"
