As soon as Ye Qin entered the gate, there was a life-release pond in front of him.
Golden or red carp swim around in it, probably because there are usually many people feeding it. Their round bodies look a bit more naive.
Directly opposite the door is a main hall. The words "Mainxiong Palace" come into view. The pen is written in a vigorous and powerful way, and it looks very grand.
Sakyamuni sits cross-legged in the center of the lotus platform, looking into the distance with compassionate eyes. The tall golden statue makes people feel admiration. Even in dim light, it cannot block the brilliance of the golden body.
In the main hall next to it are the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva holding a jade purification vase, rescuing the suffering, the Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha hall, and the statues of the Eighteen Arhats with different expressions, which are also full of indescribable dignity and solemnity.
Each hall is decorated with splendor and gold paint, and even the pillars are surrounded by auspicious clouds and engraved with exquisite patterns, not to mention the walls and ceilings.
Ye Qin didn't feel much in his heart, and was even slightly disappointed, because he didn't feel any special energy field in it.
Even the Feng Shui here is not as mysterious as the one from Shangqing Guan.
After looking around, Ye Qin withdrew his gaze and continued to explore the hall next to him.
Ye Qin almost crawled inside and outside the temple, but still found nothing.
Although the Bodhi Temple is full of fireworks, it does not seem to be anything special. It is not like when I was at Shangqing Temple, I just saw a special energy field from a distance.
"Or is it that it is difficult to distinguish the physical body, and only by releasing the original visualization object can we sense it?"
Ye Qin thought thoughtfully, after all, he had come here, and he had to try any method, so that his escape would not be in vain.
The moonlight was bright, and a silver glow fell on the temple, coating it with a faint light. The glazed tiles reflected a special color, making the entire temple look more holy.
It can be said that everything in the temple is completely quiet at this moment, and the monks have already fallen asleep.
Ye Qin picked a remote corner. As the Qi Dan circulated in his body, the surrounding fog became thicker.
On the mental level, under the bright moonlight, a white skeleton as tall as half a man slowly condensed into shape, and a human figure was projected onto the ground in reality.
I don't know if it's because of the moonlight, or if the white bones are surrounded by a vague Taoist rhyme. It holds the exquisite and small Taoist temple in its hand. It doesn't look out of place in the temple, but has an inexplicable sense of harmony.
The bones and the temple complement each other, and both have a sense of solemnity.
Ye Qin calmed down and slowly spread his spiritual power, trying to use his spiritual power as a bridge to connect the temple and the Taoist temple to see if he could resonate with the two.
As time passed bit by bit, more than half an hour passed. The mental power Ye Qin put out was like a mud cow sinking into the sea, without getting any response.
The snake's eyes slowly opened with a little disappointment.
"It still doesn't work. It seems that although this Bodhi Temple is very popular, it has nothing special, nor does it have the power of the breath of time. Even the feng shui is mediocre."
Strong incense does not mean strong strength. Just like the previous Shangqingguan, although the incense is not strong, there is a special Feng Shui magnetic field around it.
Ye Qin's snake letter trembled, as if a human being sighed, the mist slowly faded, and the original white bones also dissipated in mid-air.
"It seems like this place doesn't work. We have to try somewhere else."
Although he failed, Ye Qin was not discouraged. There were many famous temples and Taoist temples in Wudu, and Bodhi Temple was just one of them. If there was none here, he could try his luck elsewhere.
Soon Ye Qin's figure disappeared into Bodhi Temple and rushed to the next destination.
No one noticed its arrival, and it left without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
What he was looking for this time was a place with a lot of incense, so it was easier to find, unlike Shangqing Temple, which was relatively remote.
Considering that Bodhi Temple is a temple and may not be connected with a Taoist temple, this situation cannot be ruled out, so Ye Qin chose a Taoist temple this time.
However, there was no difference in the result. Although the Taoist temple had a good reputation this time and there were many people there, there was still no change in Ye Qin's use of the Taoist temple to visualize objects.
"It seems that whether it is a temple or a Taoist temple, these are actually not the key. After all, Zuo Ci Cemetery is not a famous temple or historic site."
After getting no results, Ye Qin left the Taoist temple again.
In order to save time later, it was impossible to wait until dark every time before going in to explore. Ye Qin thought of a way to directly release his mental power to explore outside.
Although it may consume a lot of energy, it at least saves time and energy. With the help of Taoist visualization, he can carefully comprehend the objects. If he doesn't sense anything, then Ye Qin will give up and look for the next one. Taoist temple or temple.
When he feels a little exhausted or tired, Ye Qin will find a remote and uninhabited place to take a short rest and absorb the energy of heaven and earth to replenish himself.
The third one.
The fourth one.
Block 5.
In the past few days, Ye Qin has visited many famous temples and ancient temples, but found nothing. He did not find any opportunities for visualization, nor did he find anything special, nor did he find any fragments of the mottled years.
In the end, in desperation, Ye Qin even rushed to the cemetery, cemetery, and even a smaller ancient tomb site.
But no matter what, there is still no gain.
Even though Ye Qin has the blessing of cultivation, he is still a little tired after walking around for so long.
"Counting the Taoist temples and temples I have visited these days, there are probably more than a dozen in total. I have already visited all the places in the city."
Ye Qin couldn't help but wonder whether it was the problem of these places or his own problem, so that there was no special one among the dozen.
Is his luck really that bad?
Or is Zuo Ci’s cemetery too rare?
Ye Qin felt a little depressed in his heart, but he quickly regained his composure, remembering that Patriarch Bodhidharma faced the wall for nine years before finally achieving enlightenment.
In Journey to the West, it was very difficult for the four masters and disciples to obtain the true scripture, but it only took him so little time.
Calculated, this setback is nothing at all. Ye Qin understood from the beginning that the road to spiritual cultivation was never smooth sailing and was destined to encounter many ups and downs.
If it were really as simple as drinking water, it wouldn't be called cultivation.
After leaving the Taoist temple, Ye Qin rushed to another famous temple again, passing through a river along the way. Since it was far away from the urban area, there were not many people here.
"I hope I can get some clues this time."
With hope, Ye Qin embarked on the journey again.
The terrain here is flat and open, and you can see the scenery on both sides of the river, which is lush and full of life.
The tide is flat, the banks are wide, the wind is blowing and the sail is hanging.
The river water slapped on the stones, making a dull sound. Whenever the waves gathered, it seemed like thousands of troops and horses were galloping forward.
The water is sparkling, like flowing glass, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, and the bright sunshine falls on the river. At first glance, it looks like a silver snake swimming.
I have to say that the scenery here is really good, and Ye Qin can't help but look at it a few more times.
He left the mountains and wandered all the way. Although he didn't gain much, the scenery along the way calmed down his originally agitated heart.
Not far from the river, Ye Qin saw a village nearby, which looked quite historical.
The mountains here are green, giant trees block out the sky, and there is a river nearby. It can be said that it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, which is a good place.
Not far from the village, there is a stone monument, which turns out to be a village monument.
It is more than two meters high and half a meter wide, with the words "Dai Wangzhuang" engraved on it.
This village monument is quite old, covered with a lot of moss, and the handwriting looks a little blurry, as if it has been constantly baptized by wind and frost in the long river of time, and traces of the vicissitudes of time can be seen everywhere.
Ye Qin was inexplicably curious and couldn't help but crawl over and found that there were many words on the village monument, introducing the origin of the village.
[During the Spring and Autumn Period, this was a battleground between the Ba Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom. Later, a group of people moved here to serve as mausoleum guardians for the kings who went abroad. They have flourished since then, so they were named "Waiting for the King", which means waiting for Chu. The meaning of the return of the king. 】
"I can't tell that the village already has such a history. It's like seeing half a page of history unveiled. I feel such a strong sense of fate..."
Ye Qin looked at the village stele and sighed. This is obviously an ancient village site that has been passed down for two thousand years.
He felt vaguely extraordinary, but that feeling was fleeting, and when he went to explore again, it disappeared in an instant.
Originally, according to Ye Qin's plan, he wanted to continue moving forward, but at that moment, he had the urge to stay here for a while.
"Maybe it doesn't have to be famous temples, ancient temples or cemetery ruins. Maybe historical sites like this will give me some insights."
Although that feeling passed by in a flash, Ye Qin didn't have this illusion after passing so many ancient temples and Taoist temples before. He vaguely felt that his opportunity might be here.
"Destiny" is a wonderful thing, and it often happens in just a moment.
As the saying goes, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. There are no hard and fast rules. Only famous temples and ancient temples can produce some kind of strange power.
Maybe there will be a special opportunity here.
This ancient village was built based on stone tablets. His eyes couldn't help but fall on not far away, intending to take a look around here.
Ye Qin could see something extraordinary at just one glance. The feng shui of this place was very particular.
The word Feng Shui can be said to be a very particular thing.
"Book of Changes. Gua Shuo" once recorded: "To disturb all things, do not rush to the wind; to moisten all things, do not moisten the water."
Literally understood, wind is the flowing air that travels from the sky, and water moves along the earth. It is the blood of the earth and the basis for the growth of all things.
Wherever there is wind and water, there will be life and vitality, and all things can thrive and grow, becoming a place suitable for human life.
There were many green plants in the village, which became Ye Qin's natural shelter. In addition, it was still early and there were not many people walking on the streets.
Moreover, Ye Qin's position was relatively low, and most of the people's eyes were level with him, and they would not be able to observe the corners next to him.
Ye Qin's scales are originally green, and with the cover of these wide leaves, it is really difficult to find anything strange unless you look closely at it.
I saw blue-tiled houses one after another, mixed in between the vigorous trees, which were simple and practical. The stone walls and earthen walls on the first floor and the bottom of the old houses were all painted with lime.
Most of these are old buildings from the Republic of China period. It can be seen that some of them have been renovated, but many of them still retain their original flavor.
The green bricks and gray tiles are antique. Ye Qin crawled among them and looked at the ancient buildings around him, as if he had traveled through time again.
The vegetation here is lush. Although there are few century-old trees, their roots are intertwined, forming a natural giant umbrella that protects every corner of the ancient village. Some even climb up to cover the entire perimeter of the house.
The sunlight falls through the gaps between the leaves, giving these buildings an unreal color, like a hazy halo.
Because it is surrounded by vegetation, it is cool even in summer and has never been hot.
It has a completely different feeling from the bustling metropolis, and it is also different from the previous Longyuan Village.
Longyuan Village is located in a remote area with few outsiders. Although the villagers live a poor life, they are self-sufficient and have a primitive and natural ecological beauty.
But this ancient village gave Ye Qin the feeling of a heavy history rushing over him. It had experienced too much in the long river of history, and finally saw all the vicissitudes of the world and returned to its essence.
The village is quite large, comparable to some small towns. The people living in it are self-sufficient. There is even a primary school nearby with fairly complete facilities.
After Ye Qin walked around, he chose a place with relatively high terrain.
From this angle you can see the entire village.
The surrounding green mountains stretch endlessly, and the left and right sides are surrounded by peaks, forming a natural protection. The middle part is relatively spacious and surrounded by rivers, forming an excellent Feng Shui treasure land.
From the perspective of Feng Shui, the stone tablet was developed strictly following the Feng Shui principles of "piling on mountains, surrounding water, and painting screens".
Moreover, it is located at the convergence of mountains and rivers. The mountains winding from the north are the "coming dragons" of the stone tablet Feng Shui.
The river escorting the dragon vein surges endlessly from the land of Sanqin, from south to north, and rushes out from the continuous green mountains in the north, like a long dragon cascading thousands of miles.
The mountains and rivers come together like stars over the moon, highlighting the excellent Feng Shui of this place.
The river is nestled on three sides of Baozhen and Jingzhen, and at the foot of the mountain, forming a "U"-shaped ring, which is commonly known as "chair-shaped" Feng Shui.
Not only is the geographical location excellent, but the Feng Shui layout of the entire ancient village is also very particular, consistent with the view of "the unity of heaven and earth" advocated by Dong Zhongshu, the Confucian master of the Han Dynasty.
The ancients always emphasized that man and nature complement each other and are coordinated and unified.
If you look closely at the architecture of the ancient village, whether it is a house or a road, you can see traces of Feng Shui, which was deeply influenced by the ancient Kanyu Feng Shui theory.
No matter how good the Feng Shui topography of a place is, but the internal conditions are not good, it will also affect the outside.
Here at the stone monument, the internal and external feng shui complement each other, forming a virtuous cycle, so that this place has outstanding people and attracted many literati to settle here in their later years.
Judging from the history of the ancient village,
It has been surrounded by vitality for hundreds of years and continues to grow.
The surrounding rivers feed back the ancient village, and the cultural atmosphere of the ancient village will also generate a unique force that feeds back into the river.
It can be said that there is mutual benefit and harmonious coexistence between the two.
There is still a clear difference between a place where people live and a place where no one lives. Ye Qin has a deep sense of this. What's more, he has now condensed it into a pill, and he can feel the energy of heaven and earth even more clearly.
Like-minded people seek each other, and like-like people respond to each other.
If it goes well, it will be beneficial, if it goes against it, it will be harmful.
"Huainanzi·Spiritual Training" says: "Heaven and earth are interconnected, and all things are integrated into one."
It cannot be said that the existence of human beings is a bad thing. It is true that some human behavior trajectories will damage the environment, but humans are also members of the ecosystem, and conversely, they can also benefit the environment.
This point of view needs to be viewed dialectically with different conditions, and one cannot kill a whole boat of people with one stroke.
Whether it is Longyuan Village or the ancient village where Ye Qin is now, the people living here have not interfered too much with the local environment and deforestation. Instead, they have established a state of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.
The human beings here developed with the help of the stone monuments and the nearby terrain. The vitality they generated also fed back into the river through the transformation of Feng Shui.
The long cultural heritage and unique Feng Shui have created a unique history of the stone tablet, and it has become a special landscape, standing beside the river.
The villagers live a life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset. There are very few people along the river, and most of them live some distance from the river.
Therefore, as long as Ye Qin hides his figure and is covered by the surrounding vegetation, he will not be easily discovered.
When he came to the stone tablet again, this time Ye Qin's mood was different, and he also felt the strong ancient charm in it.
The stone monument is right in front of the river, with endless sky hanging low and distant mountains green.
Ye Qin's gaze also fell into the distance. The river was sometimes quiet and sometimes moving. When it was quiet, it was like a shining belt, surrounding the foot of the mountain.
When it moves, it surges and roars, like a tiger descending from the mountain, or like a waterfall hanging in the air, pouring down thousands of miles, scattering countless little silver flowers, splashing on the rock wall next to it, like distinct pearls under the sunlight.
The river nourishes this land, and the people who also live on this land continue to give back.
Surrounded by endless popularity, people have said that all things are primates since ancient times, which can form a certain special magnetic field and energy, playing a positive role.
Ye Qin has visualized a lot so far, but not many of them are popular.
The previous Shangqing Temple was remote and deserted. Although there were two Taoist priests living in it, in the final analysis, its popularity had almost dissipated.
The river in front of you is surging and flowing continuously. It has both primitive and natural beauty and a bit of popularity mixed in. It is a very special feeling.
Probably because of the harmonious coexistence with the nearby ancient villages, it gave Ye Qin an unprecedented special feeling. He had already thought about what he wanted to visualize, which was the river in front of him.
This river is one of the important tributaries of the Yangtze River. As mentioned before, the geomantic omen here is excellent.
The river is surging continuously and looks endless.
It is high on all sides and low in the middle. The surrounding mountains are continuous. From a distance, it looks like a long green dragon guarding this place. The dragon's head is facing the stone monument and the ancient village next to it.
The popularity has been transformed into a steady stream of vitality, and it is surrounded by green plants, which is endlessly green, adding a lot of vitality.
In terms of Feng Shui, it is a typical good acupuncture point in the three directions of Qinglong Raojiang Town.
And this river is mixed with the momentum of escorting dragon veins, coming from the land of Sanqin, where the soil is fertile, giving birth to the majestic momentum, passing through various places, and finally settling here.
The mountains and rivers gather together, and the ancient village is the backing. It can be said that the three are indispensable.
The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky. Golden waves appeared on the river like thousands of golden snakes surging in it.
The floating light leaps into gold, while the silent shadow sinks into the jade.
Occasionally, the breeze blew by, making Ye Qin's heart slowly calm down. At some point, the original white bones slowly appeared on the spiritual level.
A figure plunged into the river, swaying gently as the ripples bloomed.
Sitting cross-legged and looking at the riverside, my empty eyes can feel a tangible line of sight, long and far-reaching.
At this moment, the bones seemed to have a mind of their own.
The Taoist temple held in its palm is full of ancient charm, with invisible gas surrounding it, as if something has awakened from a deep sleep.
"Buzz——"
Ye Qin concentrated on imagining that the river was endless and the waves were lapping on the rock wall, making a dull sound. He seemed to hear the faint sound of bells.
It is long and profound, everlasting.
For a moment, he thought he was hallucinating.
When I visited the ancient village before, I didn't see a big bell in it, so where did the bell come from?
Soon, Ye Qin discovered that the bell was coming from the Taoist temple in Bai Gu's hand.
That mysterious and mysterious feeling came to my heart again, which could not be described in words, as if my whole mind was empty.
Because of his surprise, Ye Qin even stopped the snake letter in mid-air, as if time had been pressed on the pause button and frozen here.
I remember the last time I had this feeling, I was still in Zuo Ci's tomb. It was the same way. After hearing the bell, mottled passages of time followed.
An impossible guess came into Ye Qin's mind.
Is it possible that this place also has the mottled power of time? !
Ye Qin quickly covered it with spiritual power and felt a very special power. It was gentle and thick, full of history, and a bit mysterious that could not be explored.
It seems to come from the void, or from another high-latitude space, from the years, spanning the long river of time and space, forming a special ancient bridge, connecting Ye Qin's spirit.
The mental power that had previously been in vain finally had a weak feedback.
This discovery made Ye Qin a little excited, and more mental power spread out, and at the same time, the previously faint ringing of the bell became clearer.
From far to near, getting closer and closer, and then it affects the mind, as if a small stone is thrown into it, causing some ripples in the calm lake of the heart again.
I saw that the Taoist temple in Bai Gu's hand was also affected, and began to tremble. A sense of history came to my face, forming a vague mist that surrounded the Taoist temple.
Ye Qin could clearly feel that the surrounding scenery gradually became blurry, exactly the same as the last time he felt in the tomb.
This kind of blur is not a visual blur. It seems that the scenery around you is rapidly retreating, as if a pair of invisible hands are erasing the traces of their existence.
The mysterious and powerful energy fluctuations swept everything around, including Ye Qin who was inside.
He knew that this force posed no threat to him, so Ye Qin allowed it to act and was caught in the torrent of time. His soul seemed to become much lighter, and he felt like his soul was out of his body.
Then there was a strong feeling of weightlessness. When Ye Qin slowly opened his eyes, the surrounding scenery had quietly changed.
Looking around, sure enough, just like last time, Ye Qin was in a Taoist temple.
Once raw, twice cooked.
Even with his previous experience, Ye Qin was still a little excited. After all, this was his second time. This kind of opportunity was rare.
Different from being passive last time, this time he took the initiative to take over this mottled period of time, which confirmed the old saying, flowers planted with intention will not bloom, but willows planted without intention will form shade.
Ye Qin visited the famous ancient temple, just to find the mottled fragments of time inside, and to open that mysterious passage again, so as to verify his conjecture, hoping to get an opportunity from it.
But along the way, I passed many Taoist temples and ancient temples, but nothing was found.
After finally arriving at Shibei Ancient Village, I noticed that the terrain here was special and I planned to stay here for a while. Later, I saw the details of this place, so I came up with the idea of contemplating the river.
However, during the visualization, the fragments of the mottled years were triggered, and the power of time was triggered, thus facing the years again.
Everything can only be said to be a mistake. What seems like a coincidence is actually full of unspeakable fate.
He doesn't know what he will encounter this time.
The last time was because in Zuo Ci's tomb, various factors combined, and there was an inexplicable connection with Zuo Ci.
So what kind of character will he meet this time?
Or will you encounter nothing?
Ye Qin slowly crawled out of the Taoist temple with anticipation.
