Chapter 959 (1/2)
Without Su Ming's small burden, Zhang Feng walked with the wind at his feet, and soon left a large group of people behind. Halfway up the mountain, there was a huge stone with the words Sanqing Temple engraved on it, representing the scope of Sanqing temple. Many people climbed here and were ready to return down the mountain, because not everyone was a believer to burn incense.
Zhang Feng looked up at the Sanqing temple in the distance. It was said that there was a strange stone on the cliff behind the Sanqing temple, which looked like a big incense burner. This is one of the reasons why the annual incense of Sanqing temple has attracted people from all over the world to worship. Zhang Feng looked down on the hillside and could see most of the city of China. After a little trimming, he had not seen Su Ming.
Zhang Feng took things and began to climb to the top of the mountain. The road became a little difficult when he was approaching Sanqing temple. There was a place where people needed to climb up with hands and feet. It should be repaired a little. Zhang Feng thought as he walked. Fortunately, he had good physical strength. These were not difficult for him. On the way, Zhang Feng also helped several older people cross the place together.
Before long, Zhang Feng came to Sanqing temple. In front of the main gate of the temple, a large incense burner is emitting faint incense. Several big characters of Sanqing temple are hanging on the gate of the temple gate. A solemn feeling arises spontaneously, giving people a sense of respect. Zhang Feng looked to find the incense booth, but he didn't see the master of that year.
Zhang Feng went inside. There was a incense burner as big as the outside in the middle of the open space in the hospital. There were two stone stoves on both sides. The incense burner in the middle was inserted with incense. On both sides were throwing some paper money, candles and firecrackers. Zhang Feng burned what Su Ming had prepared for him, worshipped piously, burned incense in the yard, and prayed everywhere. Then he went to the main hall.
When he came to the main hall of Sanqing temple, Zhang Feng offered incense and knelt down. Zhang Feng worshipped all the immortals worshipped in Sanqing temple until he came back. Only then did he seriously watch this Taoist temple. After the baptism of history, the Taoist temple seems a little broken, but it still does not affect the continuous stream of pilgrims who come to burn incense.
Zhang Feng saw that there was a merit box in front of Sanqing Daozu in the main hall, and the pilgrims independently put some incense in front of it. More than 300 years of old Taoist ideas are getting older and older, and the weather at the top of the mountain is bad. I don't know how they spend winter and thunderstorm. Zhang Feng is now bent on finding the old Taoist, which is his real purpose of going up the mountain today.
Zhang Feng came to the incense selling stall at the gate of the Taoist temple. A little Taoist greeted Zhang Feng: ”elder martial brother, do you need incense? Take one, and the incense and money will follow suit.” the little Taoist pointed to a carton in front of him. There were some scattered money in it, which seemed to be put in by the pilgrims themselves.
”Little monk, how long have you been selling incense here?” Zhang Feng asked. He came back and forth. He really didn't see the Taoist priest. Shouldn't he... As soon as the idea came up, Zhang Feng forcibly suppressed it. When he came, the Taoist priest was only in his 60s, but now he is in his 70s. The Taoist priest is immortal and strong, It must still be there.
”It's been four or five years since I joined the Taoist temple. Soon after I joined the Taoist temple, the master asked me to sell incense here.” the little Taoist was very honest, tilted his head and told Zhang Feng. ”What about the master who sold incense before you? Where is he now?” Zhang Feng asked anxiously. The only hope was the little Taoist. I hope he can give an accurate answer.
At this time, the Taoist priest looked at Zhang Feng on guard: ”Why are you asking? Aren't you here to burn incense?” the Taoist priest was very defensive. Zhang Feng smiled at him: ”I'm looking for an old friend. He sold incense in your position before. He has been here for decades. You should have seen him.” in fact, Zhang Feng was not sure about this.
The Taoist priest thought Zhang Feng was here to make trouble. ”Benefactor, please help yourself. I will continue to sell incense.” then he stopped talking to Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng felt strange. He seemed to have done nothing wrong. With a smile on his face, Zhang Feng said to the little Taoist, ”little master, how can you say that you can turn your face? We just said it well. Otherwise, I'll take all the incense on your table. Tell me where I can find the master.” Zhang Feng took out his wallet and wanted to put money in the paper box.
The little Taoist quickly held the carton in his arms. ”You didn't come to burn incense sincerely. Don't give money. I won't sell it to you.” Zhang Feng heard that the little Taoist was quite principled and didn't force it at the moment. He sat down on the side: ”then I'll be here with you. When will you sell out and take me to the master?”
”Suit yourself. Anyway, I won't take you anywhere.” the little Taoist ignored Zhang Feng and sold his incense attentively. Zhang Feng saw that this move didn't work for the little Taoist. He thought to himself that the master must still be in Sanqing temple, otherwise the little Taoist wouldn't have this attitude, but why didn't he want to tell others where the Taoist priest was.
Zhang Feng saw that there was still a lot of incense on his desk. It was estimated that it would have to be sold for a while. Zhang Feng wanted to go in and ask someone again. Zhang Feng stood up and looked around. There were no other Taoist priests selling incense outside, but Zhang Feng didn't know who to ask in such a large Sanqing temple. Walking inside, he came to the back of the Taoist temple. Zhang Feng saw a Taoist priest sweeping the floor.
Zhang Feng hurried to Liangbu and made a sincere salute: ”Hello, Taoist priest. I want to ask you about someone.” after seeing Zhang Feng's appearance, he was very modest and polite, so he returned to: ”benefactor, please tell me the truth.”
Zhang Feng asked, ”please ask me, where is the old Taoist who sold incense outside nine years ago?” the tunnel master glanced at Zhang Feng, then looked outside, and said faintly: ”this benefactor, go and ask the incense trail at the door. Excuse me.” then the tunnel master left.
