On the fifteenth day of the month, the moon is sixteen full. On the fifteenth day, a hundred steps have been paved from the stone road at the foot of the town to the stone steps of the temple on the mountain.
There are still eighteen stone steps left, and a group of craftsmen say they can complete it in two days at the latest.
On the fifteenth day of the year, spring has already begun, the snow on the mountains has melted, and there are already many elderly people who can’t wait to go up the mountain to see the Buddha.
It is the wish of the old people to sit in the corridor full of carved Buddhist scriptures, kowtow three times to the Buddhas in the main hall, and burn a stick of incense.
Just to pray for good weather in the coming year and for the health and harmony of my family.
On the fifteenth day, the old man Gong Yangbo specially ordered some more vegetarian cakes, and also bought a lot of candies and pastries for the elderly and children who came to the temple to enjoy.
Although Xiao Mengdie and the other two went out to play, Li Xiuyuan didn't have much time to spare these days.
In the Buddhist hall dedicated to Ksitigarbha, a volume of Ksitigarbha Sutra has been carved.
On the night of November, Li Xiuyuan sent the old man all the way to the foot of the mountain, saying that he wanted to feel the newly built stone steps for himself.
Every ten to twenty stone steps on the mountain road will have a stone flat with several long stone benches for the elderly and children to rest when going up and down the mountain.
There is a stone tablet at the foot of the mountain, and it is engraved with what Li Xiuyuan wrote: "Cihang Pudu." There is another stone tablet halfway up the mountain, but it is inscribed: "There is a shore when you turn around."
The villagers at the foot of the mountain all said that this kind of place is the temple in their minds.
As Li Xiuyuan climbed up the steps, he carved irregular lines with the sword of gods and demons under the stone steps.
While muttering to himself: "When the craftsmen on the mountain finish the newly hired Buddha statue in February, it will be even more perfect."
There was no place to live on the mountain, so craftsmen who made Buddha statues were hired from Wanping, and Li Xiuyuan booked rooms for them at an inn in the town.
This allows craftsmen to concentrate on construction during the day and rest assured at night.
When he went all the way up and completed the last line, the sea formation on the mountain road, the inn in the town, and the gate and wall of the temple were integrated.
It was already the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the fifteenth day had passed quietly between his fingers.
I thought that in February, Huajiao would come back with Xiaodieer.
By that time, the peach blossoms and apricot blossoms on the mountains will be blooming all over the mountains and plains, right?
On the 16th, the villagers who had rested all winter went to the fields early and began to prepare for the busiest season of the year.
The year's plan is spring, so Li Xiuyuan from Yunqi Temple was lazy. Even the old man Gong Yangbo was too tired yesterday and did not go up the mountain today.
Only the craftsmen who were busy shaping the Buddha statues in the main hall were busy, and the craftsmen outside the temple completed half of the remaining eighteen stone steps.
The other half started to set up a building sign at the mountain gate.
In another seven or eight days, they will complete the pavilion in front of Hua Manyi's grave. In three months at most, the entire Yunqi Temple will be built almost like this.
This is what Li Yuan thinks in his heart, and he is very satisfied.
At dusk that day, when craftsmen connected the last stone steps to the small stone flat in front of the temple on the mountain.
When the workers were full of joy and finished their work and headed down the mountain, Li Xiuyuan spent half an hour imprinting the last line on the eighteen stone steps.
A soft sound of "Buzz!" came from Yunqi Temple in the mountains, all the way down, along the 118 stone steps, along the long bluestone road to the inn in the small town.
Starting from the inn is Yaoguang, and the long stone steps are Tianquan. The building sign at the mountain gate is Tianquan, the five-foot-high courtyard wall is Tianji, and the main hall is Tianxuan...
The only thing missing is the pavilion on the hillside that is about to be built as Tianshu, and the formation of seven stars is about to be completed.
Flying his extremely powerful consciousness into the sky, Li Xiuyuan felt very proud as he looked down at Yunqi Temple in the back hill of Furong Town in the starry sky.
This was a place different from any temple he had ever visited before.
Even if one day he, Ximen Mengdie and others leave, he will miss this place as much as he misses the apricot garden on the Fuchun River.
Back to the temple
Sitting down in the living room, he did not close the heavy door.
A large formation has been completed, Xiaodie'er and others are not in the temple, and opening and closing the door no longer means anything to him.
Sitting alone in the living room, his spiritual consciousness enveloped this hillside.
After thinking about it, I moved my guqin out, placed it under the eaves in front of the living room, brewed a pot of spiritual tea, and thought about the moment in Ding'an City last year.
But he also knew that it seemed that two big years had passed, but not necessarily in the wild Ding'an City. At the moment, he could no longer calculate the speed of time.
I don’t even know if the group of friends from the Shura Heaven Realm, Qingyue, Chu Feng and others went to the same heavenly road as the eldest sister in the wild wilderness?
I don’t know if Ximen Lone Star and others finally set foot on the same adventurous land with a peace charm.
I don’t even know if Huangfu Qingmei met Qingyue and whether he delivered the peace charm he prepared for everyone.
After thinking about it, these guys were too far away from him. He could only invite the Bodhisattva to come and drink a cup of spiritual tea on the day when Ksitigarbha's Buddhist temple was completed.
What surprised him the most was that Master never told him when he could leave here.
Just let him go with the flow and see if he can make Ximen Mengdie like Jasmine back then. This is indeed a big challenge for him.
Raising a cup to the bright moon, Li Xiuyuan did not call out to the old Taoist priest tonight, but just looked at the moon with a cup of spiritual tea.
As Haishi approaches, the entire Furong Town has fallen into a deep sleep.
Duanmu Qingyun, who was galloping along with the Imperial Army, had also arrived on the official road outside Furong Town.
Meng Wuhen was much more careful this time. After explaining the situation to Helian Mingyue, he borrowed five hundred forbidden troops from the imperial city and headed north.
The Imperial City of Ten Thousand Daos is different from any other heavenly realm that Li Xiuyuan has ever visited. This place is the integration of politics and religion. As the leader of the Fire Worship Cult, Helian Mingyue is also the queen of the Imperial City of Ten Thousand Daos.
She has enough power to rule this world, not to mention only five hundred forbidden troops.
However, Helian Mingyue had no idea that the person Meng Wuhen was going to deal with was the young man who turned around for her in the forest and made way for her.
Similarly, Meng Wuhen didn't know that one of his enemies was actually a young man that Helian Mingyue wanted to meet.
Coincidentally, this is how the story begins.
Seeing that he had arrived outside Furong Town, Duanmu Qingyun was obviously a little excited. He coughed lightly and said hello to the Forbidden Army generals beside him, signaling everyone to stop.
The armored general of the Forbidden Army waved his hand and asked the soldiers to stop on the roadside.
"Sir, should we wait until daybreak before taking action?"
The leader of the Forbidden Army asked expressionlessly: "If we finish things earlier, we can return to Wanping Town earlier. I don't want to stay in this damn place for too long."
"Then let's do it tonight."
Duanmu Qingyun said coldly: "While the villagers are sleeping, we don't want to disturb the people, otherwise the young master may not be able to explain to Her Majesty the Queen."
The leader of the Forbidden Army pointed to the back mountain illuminated by the moonlight and said, "That's a temple there, it shouldn't be wrong."
"Yes, that's right there. Zhao Hu said that the temple was just built."
Duanmu Qingyun took a breath and looked at the newly built stone steps down the mountain. Looking at the clean and tidy stone steps, he couldn't help but smile proudly.
He smiled faintly at the leader of the Forbidden Army beside him and looked back at the neatly lined up Forbidden Army soldiers.
He said: "Then go up the mountain and solve the problem in half an hour. We will return to Wanping Town immediately."
After saying this, Duanmu Qingyun showed his domineering side. The enemy was right in front of him. He had five hundred forbidden troops. What the hell was he afraid of?
In his opinion, even if the young man on the mountain had three heads and six arms, it was impossible to predict his arrival on such a moonlit night.
The leader of the Forbidden Army nodded and said to the guard behind him: "The army lined up along the town and headed towards the back mountain!"
"Buzz!" sounded in Li Xiuyuan's divine sea.
Just when the army was guarding the army, they wrapped the four hooves of the war horse with cloth.
The moment he quietly passed by the small street inn, the starlight in his divine sea was lit up.
At this time, Li Xiuyuan had just drank a pot of tea, played the song "Happy Flowers and Full Moon", and was about to go back to his room to rest.
Unexpectedly, a group of fully armed Imperial Guards arrived.
He didn't know where these guys came from, nor did he know what the purpose of a large group of forbidden troops was to enter Furong Town late at night?
After thinking about it, he moved the Qintai to the mountain gate outside the temple, facing the stone steps in the mountain, and burned half of the incense on the Qintai.
He murmured to himself: "My formation has just been completed. Is it possible that Zhao Hu, who has broken an arm, is not enough to wake you up?"
In his opinion, the reason why these armored soldiers entered the town late at night was definitely not for some hidden figure in the town.
If there was such a hermit, the old man Gongyang Bo would have told him long ago.
After much deliberation, except for the matter of Hua Jiao's brother Hua Satisfaction, and the skeleton of the Wen family's daughter that Crow brought back from Wanping Town later.
Just as he was sighing, he heard a message from Gong Yangbo, an old man in the town: "These are the Forbidden Army. I think they came to the mountain to cause trouble for you."
After a pause, the old man asked anxiously: "Do you need help? I can rush there now."
"Need not."
Li Xiuyuan replied quietly: "It just so happens that Huajiao and Xiaodie'er are not here, so don't dirty senior's eyes."
The spiritual consciousness of the flying starry sky silently watched the large army and horses coming all the way from the back mountain.
The few soldiers were not above the level of the divine realm. The general in armor was obviously the leader of the Forbidden Army, and he was only in the extraordinary realm.
Even the young monk in white robes and the high-spirited monk on the horse are only in the middle stage of extraordinary cultivation.
It is much more powerful than the previous five kings, Zhao Gao. It seems that the Meng Mansion in the Imperial City has spent a lot of money.
Even so, he didn't frown.
He replied calmly to the old man at the foot of the mountain: "With such a level of cultivation, he dares to come to Furong Town to cause trouble..."
"How is it?" the old man asked worriedly.
"not so good."
Li Xiuyuan smiled: "I was worried about what to do if the future abbot of this temple was a poor monk, and just in time, these guys came to give money."
The old man was shocked when he heard this and immediately stopped talking.
I just want to go up the mountain early tomorrow and help Li Xiuyuan clean up the mess made tonight before the craftsmen go up the mountain.
When the imperial army passed by the inn, Li Xiuyuan did not take action.
He just closed the magic circle on the small street with a wave of his hand after the last imperial soldier rode through the inn on his war horse. In this way, no one from the invading enemy tonight would be able to escape.
Unless he waves away a guy who returns to the imperial city to report a message like last time, then it also depends on his final mood?
Five hundred forbidden troops came to the foot of the mountain. All the soldiers dismounted, linked their horses together, and tied them to the edge of the woods at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, Li Xiuyuan still did not move.
Instead, he listened quietly to the Forbidden Army general asking: "Mr. Duanmu, do you want to leave half of your brothers waiting at the foot of the mountain?"
In the opinion of the leader of the Forbidden Army, it is enough for him to bring fifty Forbidden Army. How can there be no need for five hundred people to go to the temple on the mountain together?
Duanmu Qingyun shook his head and said in a solemn voice: "Mr. Meng, please accompany me. I just don't want to leave any trouble. We will leave no chicken or dog behind tonight!"
After speaking, he patted the spiritual sword on his waist and walked up the stone steps.
The leader of the Forbidden Army and the guards behind him ordered: "Come up, everyone, no dogs or chickens will be left behind tonight!"
Li Xiuyuan, who was sitting in front of the temple, withdrew his consciousness and said to himself: "That's good, the fertilizer on the mountain hasn't been fertilized yet."
