After leaving Li Shangjing's room and the two of them walked a little further, Yu Langya sighed softly and said:
"It seems that the boss's heart is really filled with unresolved feelings..."
"It's also a pain for him."
Liang Jiunan's eyebrows were slightly cold:
"Back then, the Secretary was very ambitious. Not long after he took us in, he was also spotted by the Demon Subduing Division of Chang'an City and received the transfer letter."
"I originally thought that after we settled down in Chang'an City, we would be picked up."
"But I didn't expect that in just half a month, he would be seriously injured and come back."
"Not only the meridians were injured, but also the cultivation level was damaged as a result. The seventh-grade cultivation level has never improved again!"
"If I have the opportunity to go to Chang'an City, I will definitely investigate this matter!"
As he said this, Liang Jiu'an stopped and spoke in an extremely serious tone. He changed his previous joking demeanor and said seriously:
"Sister Langya, I sincerely hope you can break through the shackles as soon as possible."
"If possible, let's go to Chang'an City together and investigate the matter of the Secretary Master to the bottom of it!"
Yulangya seemed to be inspired, nodded, and went back to her room to retreat.
Liang Jiunan ate his meal, tidied up, and then left the Demon-Conquering Division and went to the Jingshui Temple to look for the snow jade mandala.
…
About half an hour later, Liang Jiunan arrived at the east side of Yangzhou City.
"Jingshui Temple..."
“Walking along the way, I didn’t see any palaces or Buddhist temples here.”
"Speaking of which, since Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, hasn't he vigorously rectified the national policy of the Supreme Emperor?"
"Buddhist temples farmed fields, and monks did not have to do corvee labor. Emperor Taizong even led monks to take care of Buddhist temples, and forced countless people to return to secular life."
"Buddhist temples are hard to find, and they look more like a nunnery..."
Liang Jiunan muttered to himself, but found that people were passing by in a hurry from time to time, just a few at first, but more and more later.
"Hurry up, hurry up! Jingshui Temple is about to open!"
"Yes, I heard that there is a special herbal soup today, so I have to get a bowl for my son no matter what!"
"Wait for me, please slow down!"
"Idiot, if you slow down, it might be gone!"
Liang Jiunan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the pilgrims running towards an alley hurriedly, carrying baskets, incense and candles as tribute.
"What a coincidence."
"Are these people going to Jingshui Temple?"
"Didn't the headmaster say that the Mirror Flower Goddess of Jingshui Temple is a person who practices Buddhism with hair?"
"Logically speaking, they should be monks and nuns, so why..."
In doubt, Liang Jiunan walked towards the vendor setting up a stall next to him: "Brother, may I ask, are all these people going to Qingshui Temple?"
Seeing that Liang Jiunan was wearing the clothes of the Demon-Conquering Division, the vendor quickly stood up, cupped his hands, and said with an apologetic smile:
"It turns out to be the master of the Demon-Conquering Division!"
"Exactly!"
"Half a month ago, the Mirror Flower Goddess who practices meditation in Jingshui Temple claimed that she had personally made a Buddha statue of the fasting Bodhisattva."
"After the Buddha statue is completed, a blessing ceremony must be held."
"Today is the day of blessing."
"So, these incense believers will naturally go!"
"On weekdays, the Mirror Flower Goddess will also distribute some herbal soups that are good for the body. It is said that it can strengthen the body and strengthen the body, which is good for the body."
Liang Jiunan's eyebrows moved.
The intelligence network of the Demon Subduing Division is spread all over Yangzhou City. Why haven't I heard my colleagues mention this matter?
Thinking of this, Liang Jiunan asked again: "Are they distributed every day?"
The hawker shook his head:
"On weekdays, it's the fifteenth day of every month."
"Oh, there is also a special day when they will be distributed. It is the birthday of King Dhritarashtra."
Liang Jiunan smiled and said: "Since you know so well, why don't you go?"
The hawker waved his hand:
"We are just small businessmen and hawkers. It is good to make some money on weekdays. Where can we have extra silver to donate to Qingshui Temple?"
"If I say I go empty-handed... I'm not that shameless!"
"Sir, let's take a look. Most of the people who go there are people who have no worries about food and drink, and some of them are very rich and noble!"
After having a general understanding of Qingshui Temple, Liang Jiunan cupped his hands, thanked him and left.
Then, he followed the hurried pilgrims leisurely, but a look of surprise appeared on his face.
First of all, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin did not like Buddhism, and the Buddhist temples everywhere that could remain were no longer as popular as they once were.
Secondly, in the Tang Dynasty where ordinary people and monks coexisted, it was almost rare to see female Buddhist monks in Buddhism.
Because, fundamentally speaking, in Buddhism, the status of women is very low.
In addition, it is not difficult to deduce from the words of the vendor that the main worshiper of this Jingshui Temple seems to be King Dhrita, one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
This God of Wealth in the Tianzhu Sect does not have a high status in Tang Buddhism.
It is very rare to be placed in a nunnery and worshiped alone.
"Jianzhai Bodhisattva...Jianzhai Bodhisattva..." Liang Jiunan frowned slightly: "Why do I feel like I heard the boss mention it, who is Jianzhai Bodhisattva?"
…
Soon, Liang Jiunan came to the team.
In front of me, the somewhat narrow alley was already packed to the brim.
At the end of the crowd, there was a very small door, which could only allow two people to enter at the same time.
On the plaque, there are three beautiful words - Jingshui Temple.
When Liang Jiunan saw this, he couldn't help but hold his forehead. He originally thought about whether he should just use his body skills to get in.
But if you think about it carefully, after all, he is a good friend of the boss and can be regarded as his elder, but it is not appropriate.
Suddenly, there was a burst of ethereal bells, accompanied by bursts of herbal aroma.
Liang Jiu couldn't help but feel surprised after taking a whiff.
at the same time:
"Squeak..."
When the door opened, the pilgrims became excited.
Behind the door, it was a little dark and couldn't be seen clearly.
The pilgrims ignored this and rushed in one after another.
"Ouch, don't squeeze me!"
"Then you wait in the back!"
"Let me go in first, hurry up!"
Everyone crowded into Jingshui Temple like this.
This scene made Liang Jiunan a little stunned.
How could such a small nunnery accommodate hundreds of people entering at the same time?
In confusion, Liang Jiunan didn't walk over until the alley was empty.
But when he got closer, he saw that there was chaos and darkness behind the door.
On the threshold, two lanterns hang.
On the lanterns, there is a statue of a woman wearing a necklace, crown, and silk, holding a pipa in her hand.
"A statue of a woman? That's not a Buddha or a Bodhisattva. Could it be some kind of Buddhist protector?"
Liang Jiunan murmured to himself and stepped into the door.
In an instant, a burst of fragrant wind hit my nostrils, and a burst of wonderful sound came.
In a daze, what came into view was a huge and beautiful nunnery gate.
"Huh?" Liang Jiunan was stunned, looked around in shock, and suddenly understood: "It turns out that a formation has been arranged!"
"Yes, Buddhism does have a formation similar to Sumeru mustard seeds, which contains the universe and the cave."
"Looking at it this way, the Mirror Flower Goddess who has made friends with the boss must also have a good level of cultivation."
This mountain gate is not difficult to walk through, it is just a quiet path.
Liang Jiunan left for about a cup of tea when he saw a nunnery full of green.
A woman wearing blue plain clothes, with her hair tied up, and holding a fly whisk, stood at the door, guiding everyone to enter with a smile.
There were also some people wearing white monk and nun attire, greeting the pilgrims and listing their offerings.
Liang Jiunan's eyebrows moved.
Could this be the goddess in the mirror?
Immediately, Liang Jiunan stepped forward quickly, and just as he was about to raise his hand to ask, the other party raised his fly whisk slightly, and his eyes were as bottomless as stars.
"This poor nun has met you, sir. You have just solved the case of the disabled mother, so why did you come to my Jingshui Temple?"
Liang Jiunan scratched his head: "Are you really Senior Tiannv? Could it be that the boss has contacted you?"
The Mirror Flower Goddess smiled and said:
"A poor nun is just a cultivator. You don't need to call me senior."
"Shang Jing's friend has never said hello."
"It's just that the poor nun has seen this day in his dream and knows that the Lord is coming."
"I also know that what you want today is... a snow jade mandala."
