Chapter 288 Burning Incense and Praying for Blessings

Dayin Temple is not only very famous in the west side of Tiandi City, it is the largest Buddhist temple, even in the entire Tiandi City, it is also very famous, and the incense has always been very prosperous.

There are also many eminent monks who are proficient in Buddhism in Dayin Temple. As a result, Dayin Temple has faintly become a Buddhist holy place in Tiandi City. Every year, many dignitaries from Tiandi City go to burn incense and pray for blessings.

Dayin Temple is located on the mountain, and you need to climb nearly [-] steps to reach the gate of Dayin Temple.

Lin Yan, Ye Xier, and Liu's mother came to the foot of the mountain at around nine o'clock in the morning.

Faced with [-] steps, the old and frail mother Liu had to walk steadily with the support of two people, but she had only climbed less than [-] steps, and Liu mother was already out of breath and her forehead was sweating.

But since pious pilgrims will climb all the steps by themselves to show their sincerity in front of the Buddha, it is impossible for Mother Liu to let Lin Yan run with her on her back. .

Although she was tired, Mother Liu was obviously very interested. Seeing that Lin Yan was obviously visiting a Buddhist temple for the first time, she smiled and explained to Lin Yan the general layout of Dayin Temple. My master is Wang Yuyan.

"Lin Shaoxia, the place where we are is the entrance of the gate of Dayin Temple, also known as the 'Mountain Gate', because the temple is mostly in the mountains and forests, so it got its name. There are usually three gates in the Mountain Gate, which symbolize the three gates of liberation, which are the Empty Gate and the Formless Gate. The door and the door of nothing."

Lin Yan looked over where Liu's mother was pointing, and found that there were indeed three doors in front of her, and the middle door was specially built in the style of a palace, with two golden statues of King Kong warriors inside, like two majestic and majestic statues. The gate guards are guarding the entire Dayin Temple.

Lin Yan immediately felt that in addition to the majestic atmosphere, there was also a solemn atmosphere, and the place of secret passage to Buddhism was indeed very particular.

Mother Liu crossed the mountain gate, walked northward, and came to the Temple of Heavenly Kings.

"The Hall of Heavenly Kings is the first hall of Dayin Temple. There are bell towers and drum towers in front of the Hall of Heavenly Kings. Maitreya Buddha with a big belly sits in the middle. There are four statues of heavenly kings on the east and west sides. The statue of Weituo Bodhisattva is placed in the shrine behind Maitreya Buddha. , look, that's how it is."

Mother Liu introduced it with great interest, allowing Lin Yan to gradually understand the general layout of Dayin Temple and other temples.

"The place where our pilgrims burn incense and pray for blessings is in the second hall, which is the front. It is called the Daxiong Hall, also known as the main hall. It is the main hall of the entire Dayin Temple, and the statue of Sakyamuni is enshrined in it."

When the three of them walked into the Daxiong Hall, they found that there were many pilgrims kneeling down, burning incense and praying for blessings.

This season of the year is also the time when there are the most pilgrims in the year. Mother Liu is obviously very experienced in this, so she chose the time when there are fewer pilgrims in the morning. Otherwise, there will only be more pilgrims in the hall.

Standing outside the hall, Lin Yan immediately smelled a scent of sandalwood, which added a solemn atmosphere to the hall.

"Lin Shaoxia, let's go in together and burn incense and pray for blessings." Liu's mother looked very devout.

Lin Yan nodded.

But just when the three of them saw the last group of pilgrims coming out of the main hall and were about to enter the main hall to burn incense, they suddenly heard chaotic footsteps behind them.

"Let let, let let."

These people pushed away the last group of pilgrims, went straight up the steps outside the main hall, and came to Lin Yan's side.

"Oh, what a coincidence." A fat woman in a bright long dress looked at Ye Xier and said, her eyes were full of hostility.

Ye Xi'er ignored the woman, and smiled at Mother Liu, "Mother-in-law, let's go in."

"Hey, I'm sorry, we are in a hurry, let's go in first, I believe you are too embarrassed to care about such a trivial matter in front of the Buddha."

Zhang Dakuang, who was thick and full of flesh, looked at Lin Yan, and said with a smile on his face.

There were twenty or so subordinates following Zhang Dakuang, although they were also dressed solemnly, they didn't look like they came to burn incense and pray for blessings devoutly, but they seemed to come purely to boost the prestige of the elder.

Lin Yan frowned, and said to Zhang Dakuang: "They all have to enter the Daxiong Palace too?"

"Of course, no."

Zhang Dakuang glanced sideways at Lin Yan, and beckoned his subordinates to guard outside the hall, while he and the woman stepped into the hall.

Lin Yan shifted his body slightly, intentionally blocking the route into the palace.

From Lin Yan's point of view, he was the one who arrived first, so why should he give way to Zhang Dakuang who arrived later?Besides, Zhang Dakuang was ashamed to say that he should not care about it in front of the Buddha, so Zhang Dakuang jumped in the queue randomly, why didn't he think that this was disrespect to the Buddha?

"Lin Shaoxia, this," Mother Liu stammered, feeling a little embarrassed to say something to Lin Yan.

Ye Xi'er whispered to Lin Yan: "Grandma thinks that it's better not to be noisy in a pure place of Buddhism, so I hope Lin Shaoxia can hold back for a while."

Mother Liu on the side smiled awkwardly, but her eyes were full of hope.

Lin Yan didn't think much, and quickly moved out of the way, but without looking at Zhang Dakuang and the others, he just smiled and said to Liu's mother: "Mrs. Liu, it's good for us to rest for a while."

"You wait outside." Zhang Dakuang waved his hand, and his men clattered, and they all stood outside the hall, blocking the entrance of the hall tightly.

When he walked past Lin Yan, Zhang Dakuang did not forget to snort coldly, with a smug expression on his face, as if he had defeated Lin Yan head-on once.

"This big madman always looks arrogant wherever he goes, even when he comes to Buddhist temples. Lin Shaoxia, don't be as knowledgeable as him." Ye Xier seemed to be worried that Lin Yan would be sullen, and said in relief.

Lin Yan chuckled, and laughed it off when it happened, and said, "I'm not a petite person either, so I don't care."

But something that caught Lin Yan's attention happened soon.

Three people came from the Hall of Heavenly Kings. There was a middle-aged man in the middle. He was burly, slightly fat, and expensively dressed. Dressing up, I still can't guess what he does.

On both sides of the man, there are two beautiful women walking together. Both of them are around 30 years old. One is wearing an apricot yellow dress, which looks bright and charming, and the other is wearing a pure white plain gauze, which looks noble and elegant.

"It's Hu Yiheng." Mother Liu said softly.

"Old lady Liu, do you know this person?"

Mother Liu nodded, "Yes. In the early years, Hu Yiheng made his fortune by opening casinos and brothels. After bleaching, he transformed into the most famous jade merchant in our area. I heard that he has a good relationship with all kinds of religions. .”

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan smiled and said, "A person like him who has been beaten and killed also believes in Buddhism?"

"Believe, and very pious," Liu's mother replied, "Every year, he would bring his wife to Dayin Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings, and he would also donate a lot of incense money."

When Mother Liu was speaking, Hu Yiheng had already brought two beautiful women to the front. When he saw a large crowd of people outside the main hall, even the door was blocked, Hu Yiheng straightened his face and said very dissatisfied. : "Whose family do you belong to, the door is blocked, how can I get in? Why don't you hurry up and get out of the way!"

When speaking, Hu Yiheng seemed very domineering, as if within a hundred miles, he was the king, and everyone had to obey him obediently.

"Another arrogant person." Lin Yan evaluated inwardly.

The subordinates that Zhang Dakuang brought here are not fools, and their eyesight is not bad. After recognizing the famous Hu Yiheng Hu Bawang, they all dispersed with a whimper, and respectfully made way for Hu Bawang. At the same time, a servant Also hastily ran into the hall.

Soon, Zhang Dakuang and his wife walked out of the Daxiong Palace with smiles all over their faces.

As soon as he saw Hu Yiheng, Zhang Dakuang immediately went up to meet him, and hurriedly began to apologize: "Boss Hu, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect Boss Hu to come, if I knew, I wouldn't let my subordinates block the way , I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, please don't mind Hu Da's boss Haihan."

Hu Yiheng smiled casually and didn't talk to Zhang Dakuang, so he had dealt with Zhang Dakuang.

On the contrary, the beautiful woman in the apricot-yellow long dress saw that Zhang Dakuang was still holding three incense sticks, so she said, "Boss Zhang, you and your sister-in-law have not finished burning incense and praying for blessings, have you?"

Zhang Dakuang smiled all over his face: "It's okay, it's okay, we're done, we're done, please."

Then, Zhang Dakuang hurried into the hall, inserted three sticks of incense into the incense burner, and then ran out quickly, not forgetting to respectfully make a "please" gesture to Hu Yiheng.

Hu Yiheng nodded, and then glanced at Lin Yan who was already standing in front of him, as if he didn't intend to say anything about first come, first served in front of Lin Yan.

"Yunchun, Ziyan, let's go in." Hu Yiheng started to walk forward.

Lin Yan didn't say a word, but stood in front of Hu Yiheng, blocking Hu Yiheng's way.

"What are you doing, do you know that this is Boss Hu!" Before Hu Yiheng could speak, Zhang Dakuang lowered his voice and said harshly to Lin Yan.

Those who don't know will definitely think that Zhang Dakuang is Hu Yiheng's loyal servant.

Lin Yan snorted lightly and stood there without moving.

"Amitabha."

At this time, a monk came out from the Daxiong Palace, stood in front of a group of people, clasped his hands together and saluted, and said: "I have seen all the benefactors."

Obviously, this monk saw the discord outside the main hall. As a monk of Dayin Temple, it was necessary to maintain the tranquility and solemnity of the main hall.

Everyone hastily returned the gift.

After Hu Yiheng returned the salute, he glanced at Lin Yan again, and then said to the monk, "Master Kuyun, I'm a bit late today, and the time for praying is almost here. Look at this..."

Hu Yiheng hesitated to speak.

But everyone can see that Hu Yiheng can't let go of arguing with Lin Yan, but he doesn't want to let Lin Yan enter the hall, so as not to lose face, so he came up with such a trick, wanting the monk Ku Yun in front of him to persuade Lin Yan Give up the plan to advance to the main hall.
