The arrogance of the city

Chapter 1734 Buddha said
Li Futu did not leave that night, nor did he avoid Su Yuan, and spent the night in Shen Manni's room.

The next morning, Su Yuan came to call the door.

None of the three showed the slightest difference, as if everything was taken for granted.

"Sister, I'm done eating, I'm going to the company first."

Su Yuan put down her chopsticks after drinking the bowl of porridge.

"Be careful on the road."

"Understood. Brother Futu, eat slowly, I'll go first."

When leaving, Su Yuan greeted Li Futu very politely. Li Futu was caught off guard for a while by her politeness, but Su Yuan didn't mind either. Before Li Futu could speak, she had already walked out.

Soon, the sound of a car starting came from outside the villa.

"Otherwise, I won't go to the company today."

Shen Manni said softly.

Women are flowers, they need to be cared for, and more importantly, they need to be moisturized. The complexion of today's national goddess is obviously much more radiant, tender and smooth, bright and radiant.

I don't know if Su Yuan paid attention to this point just now, anyway, Su Yuan didn't mention a word.

"No, I plan to go to Jinling today."

Li Futu said.

"Jinling?"

Shen Manni was a little puzzled.

"What are you doing in Jinling?"

Jinling is not far from the East China Sea, but only two or three hours' drive away.

"I plan to go to Qixia Temple to offer incense."

Hearing Li Futu's words, Shen Manni not only smiled.

Of course, she knew about Qixia Temple, which was famous all over the country.

"Why did you start to believe in Buddhism? People like you, shouldn't you sneer at these things?"

"That's not necessarily the case. Many homes in those grassy rivers and lakes that lick blood with knives have Bodhisattvas in their homes."

Li Futu laughed.

Shen Manni naturally didn't believe that he was really going to offer incense and worship the Buddha, but she didn't ask the bottom line.

"How about I go with you, I have always wanted to go to offer incense, but I have never had the time."

Li Futu was not very good at refusing.

"Is your company okay?"

"It's okay, Yudie is here. As long as she's here, it doesn't really matter if I'm in the company or not."

Shen Manni joked.

"OK then."

Li Futu nodded and smiled.

I made a phone call with Mu Yudie.The two started their journey, took the high speed, and arrived at Qixia Mountain just at noon.

Now it is autumn, and the yellow leaves all over the mountains are spectacular at first glance, and they also add a touch of solemnity to the ancient temples standing in the mountains.

"Manni, do you know much about Qixia Temple?"

On the way up the mountain, Li Futu asked.

Shen Manni still put on a pair of concealing sunglasses, walked up the stairs, and shook her head.

"I just heard that this place is very famous, and many dignitaries like to come here to burn incense and worship Buddha. It is said that at the beginning of each year, the 'first stick of incense' here is sold for sky-high prices."

"Many people have sold their conscience for money, and in the end they want to redeem their conscience with money."

Li Futu took the conversation, and then asked, "Manni, do you believe in Buddhism?"

"Do not believe."

Shen Manni responded decisively.

"The gods and Buddhas in the temple are only waiting to provide a temporary resting place for souls who have nowhere to rest, but they can't really accommodate you. The gods and Buddhas are just lighthouses that point out the direction. If you want to escape the sea of ​​suffering, you still need to cross yourself."

Li Futu raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I know a... friend, she is regarded as the most Buddha-rooted person by contemporary Buddhist sects, I think you and her may have a good chat."

Shen Manni turned her head and smiled slightly.

"He or she?"

Li Futu was dumbfounded.

Everything in the world is for my use, not mine.

Across the mountain gate, you can see a stone tablet.

In just one line, there is a thought-provoking sense of Zen.

The thousand-year-old temple, no matter when, the incense is very prosperous, and the temple is bustling with pilgrims.

"Manni, do you still remember when we took Uncle Shen to visit the Town God's Temple?"

Perhaps it was the first time that Shen Manni came to this thousand-year-old temple, she turned her eyes away from the crowds around her, glanced at Li Futu, and said without any haste: "Xi Le Xi Le is groping in the dark. Water, moon, mirror, flower, and castle in the sky. Fill the sea with stones." Throwing balls and pinches. Turning a blind eye is procrastination. Meet or not, meet or not? The moon sinks and the people in the sea are in their dreams."

Li Futu was startled.Very surprised: "Do you still remember?"

He naturally knew that what Shen Manni recited was exactly the marriage lottery they asked for when they visited the Town God's Temple.

It was by relying on this lottery that he completely conquered Shen Zhe.

Shen Zhe, an older generation of scholars, is different from them. Even if he is not obsessed, he respects Buddhism very much and believes that there is God's will in the dark. At the beginning, he spent hundreds of dollars to buy off the monk who asked for a lottery. This is only to take the marriage lottery of the person in front of him, Shen Zhe has completely identified him as the son-in-law.

It's just that what Li Futu didn't expect was that Shen Manni not only remembered this incident, but also remembered the signature so clearly, word for word.

"How could I not remember it. That signature is still kept in my home, and my dad often takes it out and reads it."

Shen Manni said.

Li Futu inevitably felt guilty.

"Actually, I also know that this lottery is not the guidance of Empress Sansheng at all, but you bought it with hundreds of dollars, right?"

Li Futu's face froze, as if subconsciously denying it, but before he could speak, he heard Shen Manni continue: "I went there again later, found that monk, paid a thousand, and he told me everything."

Li Futu was dumbfounded, and then smiled wryly, "Manni...you..."

He hesitated to speak, and finally, he sighed helplessly.

"It's too boring, isn't it?"

"Bored?"

Shen Manni looked calm.

"Is there no reason for me to find out about the important matters of my life's marriage?"

Li Futu was speechless, knowing that this matter was entirely at his own fault, he coughed lightly, and quickly changed the subject.

"Come on, I'll take you around."

Shen Manni glanced across his face and walked forward.

After walking around the temple, the two finally came to the Daxiong Hall, ready to offer incense.

The incense is provided free of charge, but no one will really spend nothing when they come here. Shen Manni donated [-] yuan, which is not too much, as a token of her heart.

During the period, it was not that no one did not recognize her, the super queen.It's just that this is a thousand-year-old temple, and everyone is very conscious, no one disturbs the order and takes pictures casually, at most they discuss excitedly.

Offer incense, kneel down, and bow down.

Although she is not a Buddhist believer, Shen Manni's posture is meticulous and pious.

Standing behind her, Li Futu looked at the majestic and majestic statue, and murmured softly: "The Buddha said that the rich and the poor are equal..."

At this time, an old voice suddenly sounded.

Without warning, but naturally.

"All sorrows and joys, separation and reunion, observe like this."

Li Futu turned his head slowly.

An old monk appeared next to him at some point. He turned his head, clasped his hands together, and lowered his eyebrows.

"Amitabha, donor Li, long time no see."
