Going eastward to the northern Qi boundary, it was more than 1,400 miles away. I walked out of Jingzhao and followed the Yellow River. I used the magic of shrinking the ground to make an inch and rushed to the road with all my strength, passing through Hedong, Hanoi, and Jijun. I changed the boats to the other side of the Yellow River in the middle, and it took almost six days.

After entering Sikou Pass, walk north to Guandao, and the undulating mountains along the way, the villages and villages with smoke surrounds are exposed in the yellow forests. They all have different customs and interests from the northwest or the south of the Yangtze River.

The flat ground, the official roads are connected in all directions, and occasionally there are rest shops next to the road, and the sounds of carts, domestic animals, and people are connected into a noisy area.

"Erniu, please be optimistic about the goods. Uncle brings you pancakes back!"

"...... My batch of goods was brought back from a distance from the south. What a good guy, I encountered a robbery on the road, and I almost fell into it with people and cars!"

"Then have you been to Qixia Mountain?"

"I don't know, I arrived at Tianzhi and collected some goods. But in the end I encountered a mutiny. Fortunately, the army that suppressed the rebellion came quickly, otherwise I would not even be able to get out of the city."

In the noisy tea shed, the guy wiped the table and packed the dishes and took the earthen stove. He heard a different copper ringtone from the official road in the southwest. The ringtone jingled and clanged as if the rest of the sounds around him were covered. He looked out and looked out. There seemed to be a quiet singing voice, which caused the diners in the shed to subconsciously tilt their heads.

"...The world is like a quilt~~~It is better to have two broken houses~~The old tree courtyard, the beautiful scenery of the stars~~The world is full of dreams~~Riding an old donkey alone with the world~~"

Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding D

The autumn wind blew the yellow treetops, and the smoke and dust were everywhere on the official road. An old donkey was shaking a pair of copper bells between his neck, carrying a scholar lying on his back, slowly walked through the road, passed through the business trip, and stopped at the tea shed.

Lu Liangsheng stopped singing, turned over, put the gourd hanging in his hand on the bookshelf, took out a big toad and put it on his shoulder, held the reins in his other hand, and tied the wooden stake outside the shed.

"Young master, what do you want to eat? Pancakes and green onions are enough!"

The guy stepped forward, cleverly took off the bookshelf on the donkey's back, held it in his hand and invited the scholar intently, put the bookshelf next to the square table, and quickly wiped the bench.

"Two pancakes and one bowl of herbal tea." Lu Liangsheng replied to the clerk with a smile, and glanced at the rest of the tables in the shed. Almost all the pedestrians and vendors were sitting passing by, so he ignored them. He waited for the clerk over the table that came first. When it was his turn, he pulled the clerk and asked:

"Brother, I'll ask you how far is it to Wanfo Temple?"

Qi County has not yet gone, and Lu Liangsheng also asked the merchants he met on the way and asked about the direction, but how far it was and which mountain it was in, the other party's answers were vague. He asked several people, and the same was true.

The guy put down the plate and poured tea for Lu Liangsheng. He looked at the big toad lying on the corner of the table, with purple and black bumps on his back, which made him panic.

He pulled the teapot and replied quickly: "Young Master is going to Wanfo Temple. I'm asking the right person. It's not the people of Qi County. Most of the people who come from outside cannot find them."

When I opened the conversation, the guy was not so afraid of the big toad at the scholar's hand. He pulled out a chopstick from the chopstick cage and drew a few drops of water stains that had just fallen on the table, and drew a route.

"Young Master walked east from the official road outside, about two hundred miles away. You can see a stretch of mountains after passing Qishui. There is a reclining Buddha among them. If you can't recognize it, you will just walk towards a crowded place and you will definitely find it."

Looking at the water stains on the table, Lu Liangsheng wrote down the words, smiled and bowed to the gang, putting a few copper coins into the other party's hands without any trace.

"Thank you guys for advice."

The guy glanced at the shopkeeper on the other side of the Tushu, rubbed the copper in his palm, and put it in his sleeve: "Young master, be polite, help others and yourself. Eat slowly, the younger one will do your work first."

"Please."

Lu Liangsheng replied, and when the friend left, he reached out to take a pancake and tear it apart in the two halves. One half was broken into several small pieces and placed it in front of the toad Taoist.

The chewing sound came from the mouth.

"Master, after dinner, we will set off on the road. We are tired of staying in the bookshelf. I will put you on the donkey's head later."

"Remember to tie the rope to the teacher."

Taoist Toad stretched out his tongue, rolled a piece of pancake and pulled it into his mouth to grind it, and spit it out again: "Even if there is less oil and no salt, it is unpalatable."

"Master, let's make do with it...there are no frogs in autumn."

Lu Liangsheng broke the pancakes into smaller pieces, took another pancake and bit them out of his mouth. There were guests at several tables nearby, gathering together in groups of three or three to chat with each other.

"By the way, who do you still remember the incident of the demon star in the sky a few days ago?"

"I know, I was doing business in Donglai at that time..."

Just like in the usual gossip chat, there were words nearby at a table saying in a low voice: "I have to beat you up when I find that girl this time."

"Don't say it here, be careful that others will listen."

"I'm afraid that we're arresting the women in our village, and we're still afraid that others will gossip?"

Lu Liangsheng turned his head and took a look. The table where he was talking in a low voice were five men wearing short hexagrams. He was thin and dark in shape. Under his shorts, the five were exactly the same straw sandals, with thick hands and feet. He looked like farmers.

Several people soaked the cakes in herbal tea, and the sound of drinking was snoring, which made the diners around them feel a little unhappy. One of them seemed to notice the gaze of the scholars there, raised his face and looked at each other, then buried his head and continued to eat and drink, and stopped talking.

‘A group of farmers came out to arrest people, it should be related to marriage... Forget it, they may not be able to find it.’

Qi County is not small. If the woman who escaped from marriage was determined to leave, and the crowd was vast, it would be difficult for these five people to catch them. Moreover, Lu Liangsheng wanted to help, and he didn't know where the woman was.

After a while, the five people left first after eating. Lu Liangsheng had already finished eating. He put down the meal money, put the bookshelf on the back of the donkey, held the reins, and followed the direction guided by the friend.

In the afternoon, the sun was slightly slanted, and the autumn scenery of the mountains were everywhere. Lu Liangsheng passed the Qishui mentioned by the friend, and asked the specific direction of Wanfo Temple at the ferry boatman. In a blink of an eye, he went to the mountain.

Bang~~~

The evening bell echoes between the Buddhas lying in distant sunshine, and in the dim sunshine, egrets brush across the water and spread their wings to the mountains and forests.

Lu Liangsheng stood at the foot of the mountain, listening to the distant and thick bell, and walked past a stall spontaneously set up by the villagers nearby. In the smell of incense and money paper, he led the old donkey to the green brick path in the forest. The cicadas in early autumn were still ringing in the nearby branches one after another, and occasionally a few apes were heard in the distance.

In the past, the iron chain bridge connecting the opposite cliff was connected. On the cliff, there were countless pots carved with Buddha statues. Some days were too long and covered with moss, and the facial features could still be seen.

"Is Wanfo Temple named it because of this?"

Over there, Taoist Toad hummed, as if he felt the Buddha's aura, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. He half opened his eyelids: "A bunch of bald donkeys pretending to be a ghost."

Only then did Lu Liangsheng remember that there were many festivals between Master and Wanfo Temple, especially the old monk in Zhenhai. If he fought head-on, the old monk's strength would be extraordinary.

After crossing the iron chain bridge, I walked a hundred steps and walked on the gravel-paved road, passing through the lush old pine trees on both sides, revealing the magnificent building in front of me.

In the Buddhist temple, the blue smoke curled up. When Lu Liangsheng came to the mountain gate, he greeted the monk waiting outside the gate.

"This little master is Lu Liangsheng in Xiaqixia Mountain. I wonder if Master Zhenhai and Master Fajing can be in the temple?"

"Amitabha!"

The monk from Zhigu worshipped the Buddha and looked at the scholar in front of him, then lowered his head and sealed: "Return to the donor, Senior Brother Fajing is in the temple, but his master is now in seclusion and practicing meditation, and he will not see the guest."

After hearing this, Lu Liangsheng nodded, put the old donkey outside, and put his master on the bookshelf together. He didn't like to stay here anyway.
Chapter completed!
