Happy life of fishing youth

Chapter 254
On the first day of the new year, Chen Changyu was busy going out with Lao Chen to pay New Year's greetings. On the second day of the new year, the family went to grandma and uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings. On the third day of the new year, they had a day off.Today is the fourth day of the lunar new year, Chen Changyu really can't take it anymore, he might go crazy if he keeps idle.The Qingcheng company's holiday is also in accordance with the national statutory holidays. This time the annual leave is ten days in total, and it will officially go to work on the eighth day of the first lunar month.So Chen Changyu saw that he had been idling at home for three days and decided to find something to do for himself. He decided to climb the West Mountain again and watch the sunrise again.The scene of watching the sunrise with Lin Jiaojiao last time is still vivid in my memory, and it just so happens that he also wants to go to the Chicken Crowing Temple to fulfill his vows and offer some incense.

I have to say that this view of cock crowing is really effective, and Chen Changyu can't help but secretly admire it when he thinks about it.

It happens that tomorrow is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, which is also a small year, so there is no problem going to Xishan.After discussing with their parents, the old Chen and his wife strongly supported Chen Changyu to go, and specifically told Chen Changyu that he must make great ambitions. It seems that the reputation of the Jiming Temple is absolutely leveraged in the hearts of everyone.At the beginning, Chen Changyu didn't know what his parents were talking about, until Lao Chen scolded him with a smile and said he was stupid.Chen's mother was the most straightforward. She asked Chen Changyu to directly make a wish to marry Lin Jiaojiao this year and have a son. Chen Changyu was very surprised.What age is this, do you still need to trouble the gods to have a son?Does it work?

Chen Changyu's "reactionary" remarks were blocked by Chen's mother, who strictly ordered Chen Changyu to make this great wish, but Chen Changyu had no choice but to agree.In line with the attitude of "belief is there, sincerity is spirit", he can only follow his mother's instructions and make this wish in front of Daozu, although he himself does not believe it very much.

On the morning of the fifth day of the lunar new year, Chen Changyu drove straight to Xishan with his parents' entrustment and some incense supplies.Because it was a young year, the sound of firecrackers along the way rang all the way, and the sound of firecrackers from a distance could still be heard at the foot of Xishan Mountain.When Chen Changyu arrived at the foot of Xishan, he realized that he was not the only person who came to Xishan. There were already many cars parked in the open space at the foot of Xishan.There are all kinds of models, it's like opening a small car show.Chen Changyu couldn't help but clicked his tongue secretly, and had to be convinced again by the reputation of the chicken crowing temple.

Carrying the incense supplies prepared by his mother to donate to Guanli, Chen Changyu went up the stairs.It is still cold winter, the road up the mountain is a bit slippery, and there is still snow in many shady places.Fortunately, things were not heavy, and the mountain road was relatively easy to walk. Chen Changyu quickly climbed to the square in front of the temple.I saw that the viewing gate was wide open, and cigarette smoke was rising from the censer on the square, and a faint fragrance wafted back and forth in the square.Chen Changyu walked up the steps on the right and walked into the temple. After arriving in the temple, he walked in along the path he had visited last time.After walking through the corridor, he came directly to the backyard. Because he came here once, he still remembered the route, and he wanted to directly find the master who led them the way last time.

After arriving at the back court, a Taoist master greeted him, first made a Taoism, and asked Chen Changyu casually why he came.After Chen Changyu returned the gift, he told the master the purpose of coming to the backyard. After listening, the master made a gesture of "please" and walked in front first, and Chen Changyu followed the master.The two of them walked to the Daxiong Palace, and Chen Changyu finally saw the master from last time, who was sitting after signing the case, fortune-telling and drawing lots for a pilgrim.

Seeing that the master was busy, Chen Changyu told the master who brought him that he wanted to donate some incense to Guanli. After entering the wing room, the master gave Chen Changyu another bow to thank him for being so sincere.After finishing what his mother told him, Chen Changyu turned back to the Daxiong Palace in front of him. At this time, the master was still explaining the signature to the pilgrims.

At this time, Chen Changyu remembered the entrustment of his parents, so he stood in front of the Taoist ancestor and made a wish sincerely. As for whether it can really come true, Chen Changyu himself is not sure.As for the Taoist ancestor, Chen Changyu was even less confident.He came with entrustment, but in fact it was just for peace of mind.After making his wish, Chen Changyu bowed heavily in front of Daozu.After he saluted, he found that the master was already standing beside him, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Benefactor, I wish you a prosperous life in Tai'an, and Sanqing is on top."

"Thank you, Master."

Chen Changyu hurriedly returned the gift and thanked him.

"The Buddha of Infinite Life."

After the master returned the salute, he saluted Daozu again, and then led Chen Changyu to the front of the signing.

"I heard that the benefactor donated incense to Guanli, and thank you so much."

The master bowed to Chen Changyu again, and Chen Changyu hurriedly helped the master up.

"Master, I am serious. I was entrusted by my parents this time. The old people are very concerned about the practice of the masters in Guanli, so they made some shoes and clothes out of kindness. Please don't dislike them, master."

"Blesser, what are you talking about? We are monks, so naturally we don't have the idea of ​​picking and choosing. Since it is the old man's mind, there is no bias in the view. Thank you, benefactor, and please go back to the descendants' view to convey gratitude."

Chen Changyu agreed again and again, and at this time the number of pilgrims in the temple gradually increased again.The master at the side came over and signaled to the master accompanying Chen Changyu that there were pilgrims who wanted to draw lots, so the master sang to Chen Changyu, shook the whisk lightly, and turned to take care of him.Chen Changyu looked at the light and powerful steps of his master, and felt envious in his heart. If he could be so relaxed and free, it would be a joy in life.

Chen Changyu turned around and walked out of the Daxiong Hall along the corridor on the left. Standing outside the hall gate and looking into the distance, he could actually see the county town below the mountain. This perspective is really unique.Chen Changyu couldn't help secretly admiring the designers and builders of this Taoist temple, who perfectly integrated the peaceful practice of monks with the chaos of the bustling world, and always reminded practitioners to "keep the heart and practice with one heart".Standing here, Chen Changyu suddenly felt that he had realized a lot.

Life is a practice. Everyone will have their own practice and obstacles on the road of practice. Only by keeping your own heart can you stabilize your mind and reach the height you want.The mountains are high and far away, and the depth of the water is unpredictable. Only by not being afraid of the dangerous journey can you see the scenery farther away.

As time went by, more and more people came to the temple, and their voices became louder and louder. The whole Taoist temple finally lost its peaceful atmosphere.Chen Changyu looked at the master who was sitting firmly behind the table and counting the pilgrims' lottery, smiled and saluted, then turned and left.
