Chapter 151 Tianning Town Temple Treasure
Before Wang could speak, Han Derong said puzzledly, "Master, my son has just arrived here. He was obviously wrong just now and lost some wine from our brother. Why are you so polite?"
Zhe Kejun pulled Han Derong: "Don't talk nonsense. The prince has never quarreled with reasonable people. It seems that this master has a reason to talk to the prince." Han Derong just followed Wang for a few days. Naturally, he didn't know that Wang was extremely easy to be with the people around him, but if there is a request, he should not offend the new people.
Wang felt that there was nothing. He reported to his family and said, "This master, if there is no name next to the king's name, just came from the State of Song and is going to Beijing to do business."
Qi Song smiled. He saw that the king was also a kind-faced person. He was not only kind-looking but also seemed to be different, so he invited: "Even so, if you want to come to the temple, it's better to ask the benefactor to sit in the Zen room. I don't know if the benefactor can appreciate it."
Among the four people, the moods were different. The king felt that he didn't care and walked inward. Zhe Kejun was a little suspicious. If he had known that he had to be more careful on this trip, it was not safe for such an inexplicable monk to talk to him. The other two admired the king very much. As soon as he entered the Liao Dynasty, someone invited him when he visited the temple. Where did Wang Shilang go? It's so full inside,
Cigarettes were swaying in the Zen room. Qi Song invited the king to sit down. The little monk in the temple brought tea. In fact, if Qi Song did not invite the king, the king would also find an opportunity to talk to Qi Song. I didn't know if the king could predict the future just now, which really attracted the attention of the king.
Tianwang Temple was built in the fifth century when Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty. It was first named Guanglin Temple. In the second year of Sui Renshou (602), it was called Hongye Temple. In the Tang Dynasty, Kaiyuan was changed to Tianwang Temple. In the 21st year of Jin Dading (1181), it was renamed Dawan'an Zen Temple. In the Yuan Dynasty, the temple was destroyed by war, and the temple was empty. It was rebuilt in Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. Xuande was renamed Tian. Ning Temple has been used until future generations,
When Qi Song saw that the king behaved well, and heard that he had just said the name of Tianning Temple, he asked curiously, "How does the benefactor know that this pagoda of this temple will be called Tianning Temple Pagoda?"
When Wang saw this, he heard this and said with a smile, "When I passed by here, I saw that this tower was very exquisite, handsome and upright, majestic and magnificent, and the name came to my heart."
Obviously, Qi Song did not believe in Wang's statement. He asked, "The benefactor said that this tower is exquisite, but there are other reasons."
When the king saw Qi Song's questioning, he wondered if it was that Qi Song knew the reason. He thought for a moment: "I saw that the Tianning Temple Pagoda was 20 to 30 feet high, and the two sides of the octagonal thirteen-storey door were carved with King Kong wrestlers, Bodhisattvas, cloud dragons, etc. The statue was vivid and lifelike, and the eaves of the thirteen-story pagoda were reduced layer by layer, presenting a rich and powerful scroll brake. The whole tower is handsome, upright, majestic and magnificent, so it feels exquisite.
Qi Song nodded while listening: "Does the giver know the mystery of this thirteen-story tower?"
How can this be tested next to the king: "The tower is generally "seven-level Futu", and the thirteenth floor is the highest level, which is generally a royal charter." After saying that, Wang said that Qi Song seemed to smile. He thought that if I was not modest, I was afraid that the monk would not say anything, so he respectfully asked for advice: "I only know so much, and I hope the master can give me some advice."
"Amitabha, the benefactor knows a lot about this pagoda. Since you say that the Tianning Temple pagoda is predestined with this temple, it seems that whether this temple can be saved from a disaster depends on whether the donor is willing to take action or not. If it is a disaster, it is also God's will."
Wang listened to Qi Song's tone, which seemed to be of great importance, and it was also related to his future name. He said without thinking: "In this case, I would like to ask the master for advice. If I can do it, I will do my best."
Qi Song nodded and said, "Buddhist family emphasizes fate. Today, it is predestined to meet the donor, and Lao Qi has something to ask for." He narrowed his eyes and seemed to be thinking about a very old thing,
The king looked at Qi Song's expression. It seemed that it was quite troublesome, but he saw that Qi Song did not speak, but dipped his hand in a little water, drew a Taiji pattern on the table, and asked, "This figure is a Taoist saying. If it is not a Taoist, what does the benefactor think?"
The king was a little stunned. In addition to the Taoist theory, what I know is that the yin and yang fish wears ancient and modern stone. Should I hide something from this monk? If not, I don't say whether I will miss an opportunity to find the ancient and modern stone,
He thought for a time and made up his mind and said, "If it's not a Taoist saying, I think it should be an ornament."
After listening to the long breath, Qi Song said, "It's really a predestined person. It seems that there is hope to find the treasure of the temple."
The treasure of the temple, can it be this ancient and modern stone, "Please make it clear." Wang said hurriedly and respectfully,
Qi Song stood up. He paced back and forth for a few steps and asked, "Excuse me, the benefactor who claimed to be next to the king just now, but the king of the capital has a servant who came to Liao."
"It's right below."
Qi Song turned his head, stared at the king, and said, "It seems that Wang Shilang is the person the person the temple is looking for. Maybe only you can find the treasure of the temple."
This monk is really talkative. Wang can't wait for him to say it immediately, but he understands that he can't be in a hurry at this time. Why don't you give this monk a buffer?
Qi Song finally made up his mind. He said, "I also heard that Wang Shilang is a righteous man, so I have this request today. In any case, Wang Shilang will agree to Lao Na for the sake of the peace of the world."
Wang heard how a treasure of the temple even brought in the peace of the world: "Master, don't worry, as long as I, Mr. Wang, can do it, I will do my best."
When Qi Song saw that the king said so, he was relieved. What can he do if he was not worried? This matter was of great importance. Since the king came today, he could entrust himself to pay, but he had a wish: "Oh, let me put it bluntly. At the beginning of the construction of this temple, the treasure of the temple was a strange stone, and the treasure of the town temple was sealed on the thirteenth floor of the tower. Before my master died, he called me into the room and told me something.
Qi Song recalled the past while saying:
"At that time, when the master told me that he put the stone into the tower with his own hands, he seemed to see the temple, which would be renamed Tianning Temple. He also seemed to see a fire burning the temple and the pagoda. Later, he secretly went to see the stone again and felt the inspiration. The place where the temple is located is the place that determines the peace of the world. If After the dry year, he will start from the north. Once he crosses the land of Yanyun, the Central Plains will be ruined by creatures and the world will be in chaos.
Wang was confused. This land of Yanyun was indeed like this. When the golden soldiers and iron rode across the sixteen states of Yanyun, it was the time of the fall of the Song Dynasty. "Is there no solution?" The king couldn't help asking,
"There is no way to divide and combine the world. There is no way, but the master believes that as long as there is a treasure of the temple, he can definitely suppress this place. Before the master died, he specially told me to take good care of this treasure, alas."
Listening to Qi Song's sigh, I knew that there must be no good thing. If the baby was here, there would be no trust. Wang Bian restrained his idea of wearing the ancient stone hidden in front of his chest: "Is it possible that there was an accident?"
"Well, one day five years ago, Master went up to the tower again, but... Alas, the stone is gone."
Wang Pang guessed that it was the result, but he still pretended to be surprised and said, "What's going on?"
"Master said to me: In the future, there will be a person who is an official in the State of Song. He knows that this tower will be called Tianning Temple. He can find the stone. After saying that, he will be silent. In the past few years, I have paid attention to the people who are an official in the State of Song. I will ask if everything comes here. Do you know the name of this tower? I heard that a servant of the king is going to come out. In the Liao Dynasty, I paid attention to the monks in the temple. As a result, when I saw Wang Shilang, you happened to be talking about the name of the tower. It was indeed God's will, Amitabha.
The old monk finally finished speaking. The king saw that he didn't seem to be silent. If he died, he would be in big trouble. If he knew the secret of the temple again, he had to go home. Then simply, his name was Qi Song, and I called the legal name to be angry.
But the king thought again that if Qi Song's master happened to take Yue Jinshi when he died, then Yue Jinshi would definitely not be in the Song Dynasty. How could he look for it? After thinking about it again, it's not right. If Qi Song's master had Yue Jinshi, he would not see that he would come here, and he was also the person who found Yue Jinshi.
How should I find it next? Did I really find Yuejinshi and put it in this temple? Wang Bian suddenly felt that this was the biggest thing since he came to the Song Dynasty, even more than the danger that Liao might encounter in front of him.
He calmed down and asked Qi Song, "Master, has anyone ever climbed the tower before he lost the treasure of this town temple?"
Qi Song thought about it carefully: "In those days, the emperor of Liao, Yelu Zongzhen and Yelu Zongyuan all prayed in the temple, and the son of Yelu Zongyuan was also there. At that time, the three of them went up to the tower with several bodyguards."
This is troublesome. There are so many suspects, and Yelu Zong is really dead. In case he can't take it back in his hand, there are so many in case. No matter what, I have to look for it. "In this case, can you please take me to the tower to have a look." The king made a request. Although the tower had been here for a long time in his previous life, it was of great importance. He wanted to see where the stone of the treasure of the town tower was placed.
Qi Song leads the tower next to the king: this Tianning Temple pagoda is 50 or 60 meters high, and the overall structure is from the bottom to top: the base, the flat seat, the lotus seat, the body of the pagoda, the thirteen-story eaves of the pagoda, the top of the pagoda, the pagoda, the pagoda, the tower base is a square platform, and the bottom is the Xumi seat, and the door at the waist of the Xumi seat is carved with a lion and beast head, floating on the column. The lotus pattern is carved, and the statue of King Kong wrestler is carved at the corner, and a waistband is added to the Xumi seat. The Buddha statue is carved in the gate. The statue of King Kong wrestler is carved in the column and the corner. The upper part of the base is a flat seat. The hook column and the bucket are all imitated wooden structure. Then there are three layers of lotus seat to support the tower body. The four fronts of the tower body are arched, and the bricks on the side of the door are carved. The rest of the four sides are straight lattice windows, and the statue of Bodhisattva is carved by bricks on the side of the window. The image is vivid. Under the eaves of each floor of the tower, double-copy bricks are carved with imitation wooden structures. The top of the tower is covered with two layers of octagonal lotus to support the small Xumi's precious beads.
Fortunately, he didn't dare to relax when practicing every day next to the king. He climbed up to the thirteenth floor in one breath. When Qi Song came up, he pointed to a wall in the east. There was a Buddha niche on the wall. He gently pushed and twisted it secretly. The niche removed part of the base, and there was a wooden box in it: "This is the former storage town. Where is the treasure of the temple? Qi Song pointed to the wooden box and said,
