There were not many people in the dining hall, mostly old people and monks.
Su Mu took a quick look and glanced over, but found nothing wrong.
"Let's have some breakfast."
He relaxed.
After meditating on the Taoist teachings, I came all the way. I could also have some meals to adjust and take a rest.
Yan Qingming nodded and did not refuse.
The restaurant is very large, and some thought must have been put into its creation, presumably with tourists in mind.
After all, most of the people in the city believe in Buddhism, and there are many people coming and going to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple every day. In addition to dining, it can also be used as a temporary resting place.
Su Mu bought a fried bun, a basket of steamed dumplings, and a bowl of Yangchun noodles.
They are all very plain.
But it looks quite appetizing.
The chef's craftsmanship is quite famous in this area, and some people even come here just to enjoy the vegetarian food of Wanfo Temple.
"Hey?"
Su Mu was quite surprised as he ate the steamed dumplings.
It was stuffed with chive vermicelli, which he didn't expect, and it was the first time he had eaten it.
After finishing the steamed dumplings three times, five times and two times, Su Mu went to get three more baskets and came back, which was really not enough.
The taste was a bit strange, but it was really delicious. He also took a portion of the mountain mushroom stuffing to compare. It was quite delicious, but compared with the vermicelli dumplings, it was much worse.
Seeing how delicious it was, Yan Qingming couldn't help but try it. It wasn't as delicious as Su Mu thought, but it was really good. He nodded secretly and went to get a cage.
Not long.
The two of them burped one after another and smiled at each other.
They didn't expect that they could eat so much even if they were vegetarians. They took no less than ten servings of steamed dumplings alone.
“The vegetarian food at Wanfo Temple is a must, but I still like to eat meat.”
Su Mu did not forget to comment.
The two rested for a while and found nothing strange in the dining hall, so they prepared to set off again.
They also paid close attention to the little novice monks. They were ordinary and there was nothing noteworthy about them.
It was as if those strange things disappeared all of a sudden.
The two of them continued walking up the stairs towards the mountain.
"It is said... that the reason why Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple got this name is because there are tens of thousands of Buddha statues enshrined in the main hall?"
Su Mu asked.
"Yes, it was originally called Jiafo Temple, but Wanfo Temple was changed to it later."
Yan Qingming nodded.
"Why?"
Su Mu said with interest.
"In ancient times, darkness and turmoil came, and the Chusheng Plateau was affected. It was precisely because the abbot of Jiafo Temple led all the Buddhas in the temple to resist desperately, and thus protected the people of Nishinomiya City."
"And because of that battle, all the monks in the temple were killed or injured, and only a few returned."
"In order to commemorate the Buddhas who sacrificed their lives to protect the people, the people of Nishinomiya City spontaneously built ten thousand Buddha statues and worshiped them day and night."
“That’s why Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple got its name.”
Yan Qingming said with emotion.
"I see."
When Su Mu heard this, he was filled with admiration.
These people can be called "Buddhas"!
The ones I encountered before were just demons wearing cassocks and Buddhist robes!
The two walked and chatted, and Su Mu kept thinking.
Able to sacrifice himself to protect thousands of people, he did not believe that these Buddhist monks would deprive people of their lives for their own selfish desires.
But someone did go missing and the Buddha statue was seen moving.
And...that depressing and eerie feeling cannot be faked. What exactly happened?
The two of them walked quickly and reached the top of the mountain in a short time.
There are many Buddhist temples housing giant Buddha statues, most of which are world-famous beings from ancient times.
There are also buildings such as the Sutra Pavilion and the martial arts room.
The main hall is located at the highest point, where the Buddha sits cross-legged, chanting Buddhist sutras, and glowing with golden light.
The precious light is hazy, the Buddha’s light is brilliant!
Su Mu and Yan Qingming walked into the main hall. There were many tourists inside. The Buddhist monks of Wanfo Temple would not chase people away. They had a good relationship with the residents of the city.
No one will cause trouble.
Even if there are, most of them are young children.
Once a troublemaker appears, the spittle of thousands of people in Nishinomiya City is enough to drown him without the Buddhist monks taking action.
Su Mu looked around.
The throne in the main hall holds the founder of Buddhism and Taoism, Sakyamuni.
Surrounding it are thousands of Buddha statues, all of which were cast by the people of Nishinomiya City with their own hands. The Buddha's light shines and the power of his will surrounds them.
The people of Nishinomiya City regard these ten thousand Buddha statues as the continuation of those sacrificed Buddhist monks, and they only have respect in their eyes.
From the old man down to the young child, there is no one who is disrespectful.
"These Buddha statues can move, right?"
Su Mu whispered softly.
He thought of what Mr. Muscle said last night.
His friend would move when he saw the Buddha statue, and then disappear without a trace.
There must be something wrong with this.
"It should be."
Yan Qingming looked up at these thousands of Buddha statues.
A sense of solemnity and solemnity rushes into the face, making people dare not look directly for fear of being disrespectful.
"Did you find any problems?"
Su Mu asked.
Yan Qingming shook his head, "Don't worry...it's still early, let's go shopping."
"Um."
Su Mu nodded.
It's just like hunting, you have to be patient.
He raised his head and looked at the thousands of Buddha statues, and the feeling of depression in his heart became heavier and heavier.
But it didn't have the weird aura it had at first.
After leaving the main hall, the two of them started to watch like tourists. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple was built on the mountain. It covers a large area and has many buildings. There are many places to see. Ordinary people may not be able to visit them all in one day.
"The Buddhist Scripture Pavilion of Wanfo Temple is open. Do you want to take a look?"
"There are countless scriptures inside, but they are all collected by Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple over the years."
Yan Qingming had a faint smile on his face.
"Oh? Is there anything else?"
Su Mu's eyes widened.
Can this scripture still be passed down to others? Isn't the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple too generous?
"But...most of them are ordinary scriptures. Those secret books of skills are not stored in the Scripture Pavilion."
Yan Qingming burst out laughing when he saw Su Mu's surprised look.
His goal was achieved, just because Su Mu showed this expression.
"What the hell."
Su Mubai was happy and glanced at him resentfully.
"You might be able to gain something, just be more careful."
Yan Qingming's smile faded.
"Um?"
Su Mu was a little surprised when he heard this.
No matter how stupid you are, you can understand this. This is Yan Qingming's hint to himself!
"I see."
He nodded and became serious.
The two walked into the Sutra Pavilion together. There were many people here. Some young girls were carefully copying Buddhist scriptures and praying for the safety of their families.
Su Mu looked up and down, and there seemed to be nothing wrong. He picked up a scripture at random and found a place to sit down.
He can roughly understand the Buddhist texts in the scriptures. He calms down and studies it. If he wants to find any clues, he must not be too anxious. Since Yan Qingming gave him a hint, there must be something in this scripture library. questionable.
Yan Qingming also stayed aside and read the scriptures, looking around inadvertently.
