Chapter 60 Incense
"Today I will go to Jing'en Temple to offer incense for my husband and you." After breakfast, Jun Linfeng suddenly said.
"Husband, why are you so free today?" Rong Jingru was a little curious.
"Those two things happened one after another, and the surrounding area has become a lot calmer for the time being, so I don't have to stay in the military camp every day." Jun Linfeng said, reaching out and gently scratching the bridge of Rong Jingru's nose.
"Aren't I afraid of delaying your business?"
"Although business matters are important, spending time with your wife is still equally important." He would not neglect his wife because of business matters, so how could he give birth to little Linfeng and little Jingru.
"Jun Linfeng, I didn't expect you to be so glib. This is completely different from the previous rumors." Rong Jingru puffed up her cheeks.
"Ru'er, you have to know that seeing is believing and hearing is false, so in the future, you should just listen to the gossip and don't delve into it." Jun Linfeng directly reached out and started to play with a loose strand of Rong Jingru's hair.
of black hair.
"I know." Rong Jingru stuck out her tongue playfully.
She is not stupid at all. She knew these truths in her previous life, but she was just expressing her own feelings.
"But can you tell me about Jing'en Temple?"
"Although Jing'en Temple is not as famous as Daiguo Temple in the capital, it is still a century-old temple. When we get there, in addition to offering incense, we can also enjoy the beautiful scenery around us. I guarantee that your trip will be worthwhile." Jun Linfeng is gentle.
There was a faint smile in his eyes.
"My husband said this, but it made me so excited that I would regret your thoughts if I didn't go." Rong Jingru couldn't help but joked.
"Let's not take a carriage today, let's just go there on horseback, okay?" Rong Jingru realized that she had only ridden a horse in the general's mansion and had not gone out to ride yet.
This feels like I learned to drive in my previous life, but after getting my driver's license, I never actually drove a car.
Jun Linfeng nodded, and finally agreed, "But you can't ride too fast outside for a while. It would be bad if you hurt passers-by."
Rong Jingru nodded without thinking. She was a good citizen who obeyed traffic rules. Although she traveled to the Wei Dynasty, basic common sense had penetrated into her bones, so even if Jun Linfeng didn't say it, she would not do that.
Do.
After a while, after Rong Jingru changed into riding clothes, Jun Linfeng was already standing in the front hall waiting for her in a lake blue robe.
"Husband, we can set off."
At this time, the little white dragon had already been led out. After knowing that he had the opportunity to go out for a walk today, he was always a little excited. However, Tinker Bell couldn't stand it anymore, so he whispered a few words in the little white dragon's ear.
The guy was completely quiet.
"I didn't expect that the kitten my wife raised was so powerful."
"It's very smart." The man had to nod in agreement.
"How did I find out that all those humans are praising you?" Xiao Bailong paid attention.
"Little White Dragon, they are indeed praising me, haha, are you envious?" Tinker Bell showed a proud smile.
"Don't be too proud. Be careful, the master will cut off your food rations soon." Xiao Bailong rolled his eyes.
Jun Linfeng and Rong Jingru were together, and the two rode together, riding horses.
Because they were on the street now, both of them were riding very slowly. Although the little white dragon was a little unhappy, there was nothing he could do if Rong Jingru didn't let go of the reins.
"I'm talking about Little White Dragon, the master is also doing this for your own good. Do you know, what are you going to do if those people get hurt because of your reckless behavior?" Tinkerbell felt that she had to give Little White Dragon a good lesson today.
class.
"I will be careful and I will not bump into these people." Xiao Bailong said with a stiff mouth.
"Then if a carriage suddenly comes out from the left, or a pedestrian comes, and you can't slow down right away, what should you do?"
"I...I..." Xiao Bailong was speechless for a long time.
"Look, you don't even know it yourself, so in crowded places, it's better to walk slower, so that when someone suddenly appears, you can easily stop your front and rear hooves.
." When Tinkerbell said this, she was very proud.
It turns out that it feels really good to be a wife.
After almost an hour, the carriage finally arrived at the foot of the mountain of Jing'en Temple.
"We have nothing to do today, so we won't take a detour."
However, after Rong Jingru saw so many stone steps, she actually had the idea of retreating. There were really too many stone steps, and they were also very steep, making people feel like they would fall down if they were not careful.
Unexpectedly, just when Rong Jingru looked timid, Jun Linfeng reached out and held Rong Jingru's hand, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Although it was only five short words, it gave Rong Jingru infinite power, allowing her to dispel her previous timidity.
"Although there are 298 steps in front of Jing'en Temple, as long as you master a certain method, it is actually quite easy to climb these stone steps."
However, hearing what Jun Linfeng said reminded her of the Heart-Questing Staircase in her previous life, and she wondered if these stone steps were similar to it.
This immediately made her interested, and she forgot her previous flinch due to the large number of stone steps.
"Then let's go. I just want to try how many stone stairs I can climb." Rong Jingru looked eager to try.
"Okay, but Ru'er can't walk too fast. The stone steps are a bit steep, so be careful not to fall." Jun Linfeng warned uneasily...z.br
After hearing Jun Linfeng's concern, Rong Jingru felt soft in her heart.
"Well, I will tell you when I get tired." Rong Jingru finally nodded and agreed.
Rong Jingru was a little excited at first, but she became tired after nearly half of the climb.
When Rong Jingru climbed the stone steps, Tinker Bell disappeared into the wild without knowing where she was. Rong Jingru didn’t let anyone look for her, because she knew that it would come back on its own.
"Ru'er, do you want to rest for a while before climbing?" Jun Linfeng saw Rong Jingru was a little tired and asked with concern.
"No, I think I'm okay. If I really can't, it's not too late for me to stand aside and rest." Rong Jingru waved her hand.
Jun Linfeng saw that Rong Jingru's complexion had not changed, and he thought she was not too tired, so he did not make any more noise.
After thinking about it, Rong Jingru slowed down and began to climb the stone steps diagonally. At the same time, she imitated those people in cultivation and began to close her eyes and empty her mind.
Not sure if it was her own illusion, but Rong Jingru actually felt a hint of enlightenment, and her body and mind were completely relaxed. The tired feeling just now seemed to have disappeared, and now she only felt energetic all over her body.
The complicated sounds around me suddenly disappeared, leaving only the sound of leaves falling in the wind, the chirping of birds and insects, the sound of chanting sutras, and my own heartbeat.
After a while, Jun Linfeng felt a change in Rong Jingru's aura.
"Everyone, stop for a moment." Jun Linfeng didn't expect that Rong Jingru would have an epiphany right on the stone steps.
Then everyone was asked to guard Rong Jingru to prevent her from being affected by other people climbing the stone steps.
Rong Jingru didn't know what was happening outside at this time. She felt that the things she didn't understand about the exercises suddenly became clear to her, and she felt warm all over her body.
The surrounding pilgrims who came to offer incense looked sideways, but they only stayed for a moment before continuing to move forward.
But at some point, someone recognized Jun Linfeng's identity.
"Isn't that General Zhenbei?"
"The one next to him must be the general's wife. I didn't expect her to be so beautiful. It seems that the rumors are true."
"General Zhenbei seems to be somewhat inconsistent with the previous rumors."
"Maybe he just treats his wife differently." This person really guessed it.
When everyone saw the strength of Jun Linfeng's side, they only dared to discuss in a low voice.
What she didn't know was that Abbot Jingxuan, who was meditating in the meditation room, opened his eyes at the moment she paused and turned to look outside Jing'en Temple.
"Amitabha, I didn't expect that there would be a donor with such good fortune." After he finished speaking,
, Abbot Jingxuan closed his eyes again and began to meditate.
"Why did you all stop?" Rong Jingru suddenly reacted.
"Ru'er, you still don't know, right?"
"What do you know?" Rong Jingru was a little confused.
"Jingru, you actually had an epiphany on the stone steps." Jin Wushuang said.
"Really? I mean, why is my whole body so warm, and the fatigue from climbing the stone steps disappeared instantly? It turns out that this is the feeling of enlightenment." Rong Jingru was not confident.
"Okay, let's continue climbing the stone steps." Jun Linfeng felt that it was not good for so many of them to stand here. Since Rong Jingru had woken up from her epiphany, there was no need for them to stay here anymore.
Rong Jingru looked around and found that there were more people climbing the stone steps. She nodded slightly and began to move forward.
This time, the speed was much faster than before. Although as she went up, there was always a vague pressure that was disturbing Rong Jingru, but she did not stop.
Because she found that as long as she overcame this pressure, it would be easier for her to climb the stone steps.
It seems that the 298 stone steps in front of Jing'en Temple should be a simplified version of the steps in the world of cultivation, otherwise she would not have such a feeling.
Unknowingly, Rong Jingru had climbed the 298 stone steps, and looking back she felt unreal.
At this moment, the sound of bells came from the temple, and not long after, Abbot Jingxuan appeared at the gate of Jing'en Temple.
"Abbot Jingxuan, are you waiting for someone?" Jun Linfeng took a step forward, first put his hands together and bowed to Abbot Jingxuan.
"Amitabha, Master Jun, and I are waiting for you two." Abbot Jingxuan glanced at Rong Jingru who was next to Jun Linfeng, and knew that this person was the one who suddenly had an epiphany before, which made him a little envious.
Jun Linfeng nodded slightly. It seemed that Abbot Jingxuan was attracted by Ru'er's epiphany.
The two of them followed Abbot Jingxuan into the temple hand in hand.
"Donor Jun, why don't you go to Lao Na's Zen room with your wife after finishing the incense?" Abbot Jingxuan invited.
"Okay, thank you Abbot Jingxuan for the invitation." After saying that, the two of them said goodbye to Abbot Jingxuan and followed the monk Zhike to the main hall of Jing'en Temple.
There are monks sitting cross-legged on both sides of the hall chanting sutras. On the side dedicated to Tathagata Buddha, a monk is tapping wooden fish slowly and slowly, making the whole hall look extremely solemn and solemn.
I don't know if Rong Jingru's state of mind has changed. She found that the feeling after entering the hall was completely different from her previous life.
Jun Linfeng and Rong Jingru knelt down on the futon respectively. At the same time, they took the incense sticks handed over by the monk and bowed to the Buddha statue.
Rong Jingru looked up at the Buddha statue, where wisps of green smoke were lingering, making her instantly feel like she was in another world.
However, she did not believe in Buddhism in her previous life, so she just symbolically recited it silently in her heart to wish her peace and health.
Because she feels that relying on anything is more realistic than relying on yourself, because there is no free lunch in the world.
Rong Jingru noticed that Jun Linfeng seemed to be much more pious than herself.
