In the early morning, Pufa Temple is bathed in brilliant morning glow. From afar, it looks magnificent and awe-inspiring.
Against the backdrop of the slowly rising sun, the entire temple seemed to be flowing with golden light, covered with soft glow, sacred and solemn, making people admire it.
Wang Xuan also became serious. Regardless of whether he had faith or not, he didn't want to be too casual in such a place, especially since he came here today to seek the rare fossil feather.
It is still very early, but there are already some people coming to burn incense. This place is popular all year round and is an important place of Buddhism.
when!
The big bell in Pufa Temple rang, deep and long, the sound spread for dozens of miles, and even in Ancheng it could be faintly heard.
In this early morning, accompanied by the rising sun, the sound of the bell is distant and particularly meaningful, as if it can purify all the troubles in the world, make people calm and free from the mundane world.
Wang Xuan stood in the distance, looking at the temple in the morning glow. He couldn't help but nod solemnly. There must be a reason why Buddhism has remained popular through the dynasties.
The ringing of bells, the curling incense smoke, and the tiles glowing in the morning glow, just this solemn, sacred, and dignified atmosphere is enough to calm people down.
"This thousand-year-old temple is well-deserved of its reputation!" He was serious. He came here today to trace the legacy of the ancient sages. He was very pious in his heart and hoped to see the rare objects left by the great sages.
It was still a little early, so Wang Xuan was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, he walked around the entire temple. It really occupied a large area and was very grand.
Outside the temple, there are many ancient trees, ranging from thousand-year-old pines to hundreds-year-old ginkgo trees. In the morning, there are wisps of white mist lingering around, which appear faintly colorful when illuminated by the sun, making it look even more extraordinary.
"There is a mysterious factor!" Wang Xuan was walking outside the temple, and when he passed by these thousand-year-old trees, he immediately felt a different atmosphere.
His heart was suddenly moved and he was quite expectant. There were many legends about this ancient temple with a rich historical heritage, all of which were related to eminent monks.
Over the past thousand years, it is said that there have been two flesh-and-blood Bodhisattvas, both of which have been preserved, which is extremely rare.
The so-called Bodhisattva in the Flesh refers to eminent monks who have practiced rigorously, have a pure mind, and have fully manifested their potential, thus leaving behind an incorruptible body. They may die facing a wall or sitting in a jar, and their indestructible body can be seen by future generations.
Wang Xuan had been into the inner scene and had some thoughts about the remains of this great monk. He wanted to see it with his own eyes, or feel it up close, to verify it one by one.
In addition, there are even more eminent monks who left behind relics in the Pufa Temple. Whether they are real relics or stones that can be explained scientifically, they are all worthy of his approach and exploration.
In Wang Xuan's opinion, if there are real relics, they must be similar to fossilized feathers, which contain the mysterious substances brought out by the great virtue from the inner realm.
Wang Xuan walked around the area and felt that it was worth the trip. He had an inexplicable feeling among the ancient trees outside. What would happen inside? He was looking forward to it.
As the sun rose, more and more people entered the temple, but it was not crowded. Wang Xuan walked in slowly and took a look at the large copper censer in the courtyard. It seemed that the incense in it had never been extinguished. The incense ash was very thick, almost filling up the censer.
He grinned. The two eminent monks that Old Chen had invited last time probably took the incense ashes from this copper furnace, mixed them with water, and then sprinkled them on his body.
He walked over and offered a stick of incense to show his gratitude.
Generally speaking, the architectural layout of temples is similar, starting from the Mountain Gate Hall, then the Heavenly King Hall, followed by the Main Hall, then the Bodhisattva Hall, and behind them are the Dharma Hall and Sutra Library.
"Not simple, is this being low-key and restrained?" Wang Xuan frowned, because since he came in, it was difficult to sense the breath of the mysterious factor.
He looked up and saw that the main hall was very tall, with carved beams and painted buildings inside, and it was magnificent and golden. It was really grand, and enshrined the Three Buddhas, shining with golden light.
It was just quite strange that in such an important Buddhist place, he still couldn't sense the mysterious factor, which made him frown, very puzzled.
Wang Xuan could only sigh that Buddhism had superb methods, and some secrets were mostly beyond the understanding of an outsider like him. He could only search step by step. He was not in a hurry, and moved forward all the way, exploring in the Pufa Temple.
However, he went through all the Buddhist temples and searched everywhere, but he didn't sense any mysterious factors at all. What was going on?
Wang Xuan was a little skeptical. Could it be that there was really another world here? It could block the spillover of mysterious substances. If that was the case, the Buddhist method was quite amazing.
After all, this is no longer the ancient times, but a new era of brilliant scientific and technological civilization. A temple that can pass on this kind of secret method is not necessarily worse than the ancestral temple of Buddhism.
"I really don't believe it. I just don't believe that we can't find any clues!"
Wang Xuan persevered and went around all the places in the temple that were allowed to be visited, but he found nothing and could not find any clues.
He was a little stunned. Was there something wrong with his perception? Was he suppressed by some mysterious force in this thousand-year-old temple?
However, this was not the case. He felt it carefully and found that his spirit was extremely vigorous. He could hear the birds singing in the dense forest outside the temple from a very long distance away.
For this purpose, he made a special trip out and returned to the woods with thousand-year-old trees, where he indeed captured the thin mysterious substance again.
"This thousand-year-old temple, an important place of Buddhism, is awe-inspiring!" Wang Xuan sighed as he walked back into the temple.
This time, he used his agility and quickness to go to some unopened areas and even went deep into the pagoda, which is where the Buddha's bones and relics were stored after the death of eminent monks of all generations. They were usually buried in the underground palace under the pagoda.
He still found nothing and felt nothing in this area.
