    "The boatman is a little closer a little closer, hey, just row to the bottom." Xiang Que raised his head and squinted his eyes, staring at the towering Buddha on the top of the mountain.

    Two repairing old craftsmen on the big Buddha tied the ropes and wiped and repaired it from the top down. The big Buddha has gone through thousands of years, man-made and natural reasons, and it has been seriously damaged. Every year, the scenic spot will send people to repair it.  .

    "Shua" the bamboo raft was close to the bottom of the Buddha, and Xiang Que, who had bent his legs, jumped up from the bamboo raft and landed lightly on the viewing platform at the foot of the Buddha.

    The boatman holding the bamboo pole was taken aback. He only felt that the people on it would disappear as soon as the bamboo raft under his feet sank: "You are as light as Yansa?"

    The tourists on the viewing platform looked sideways at Xiang Que who suddenly jumped up. He continued to look up at the top of the Buddha's head suspiciously. After a few glances, he suddenly asked the people next to him: "How's the weather in Leshan these days?  Is it raining?"

    "Okay, very good, look at the sun above your head, it will scorch people, and then look at the river behind, the riverbed is exposed. It has not rained in Leshan for more than a week. This year is a drought year.  "

    "Oh" Xiang Que responded, then turned around and supported the railing with one hand, jumped off the viewing platform again, landed on the bamboo raft, and said to the boatman, "I want to see the top of the Buddha, how can I get up?"

    "Don't you know how to fly? You can fly up. Just like before, you can fly up with just a wave of your hands. You are amazing, so you can fly up." The boatman squinted his eyes and said dissatisfied.

    Xiang Que was taken aback, scratched his head and said, "Why are you still angry? Boatman, how did I provoke you?"

    The boatman said angrily: "You jumped from the bamboo raft just now, and you landed on it. If you jump into the water, do you know that I will lose my job? And then I have to pay a fine.  There is a rule that tourists are not allowed to leave the bamboo raft without permission and go into the water. It doesn¡¯t matter if you jump or my whole family will have to drink the northwest wind. Sir, please understand those of us who earn hard money? Please abide by the regulations of the scenic spot  , can you?"

    "Is this the case? I understand, I understand. I'm sorry, Mr. Chuan, I don't know the rules. I apologize to you. Let's continue talking about the topic just now. I want to see the top of the Buddha. How do I get there?"

    The boatman gave him a blank look, pointed to the left side of the viewing platform with dissatisfaction and said, "Did you see those people queuing up? There is a stone ladder leading up there, and you can reach the top of the mountain by following the ladder."

    "Ah, have I been jumping around for nothing all day?"

    "Guawazi" the boatman muttered in a low voice.

    "à§" Xiang Que bent his legs, and jumped up from the bamboo raft to the viewing platform again. The boatman behind was stunned and cursed angrily: "You son of a bitch"

    The stone ladder is built steeply and spirals to the top of the mountain, with rusted handrails on both sides. Visitors can follow the ladder from the bottom to reach the top of the mountain and enjoy the whole view of the Buddha along the way. Xiang Que followed the tourists to the top of the mountain from below.  Look at the head of the Leshan Giant Buddha.

    It took Xiang Que a whole day to lean against a tree on the top of the mountain, squinting his eyes and staring at the face of the Leshan Giant Buddha without blinking.  At the top, come down from the viewing platform above.

    "It's another uneven year." After the old craftsman came down, he pursed his lips and shook his head, his face looked a little bit unwell.

    Another craftsman sighed: "I don't know how many people will suffer."

    On the face of the Leshan Giant Buddha, from the middle of the eyes, there are two water marks extending to the bottom. Others may not be able to see clearly, but Xiang Queneng can really see the continuous flow of water, which has not dried up from morning to night. Leshan  The temperature at this time is about 35-6 degrees, and the ground temperature is about 40 degrees away. The Buddha is made of boulders and the sun will get hot when you touch it for a while. You can pour a basin of water on it.  It will be evaporated in a few minutes, but the water marks in the Buddha's eyes have not stopped for several hours.

    There used to be a thousand-year-long rumor in the Leshan area: "The Buddha has tears, and the common people in the world will have a catastrophe."

    Xiang Que took out a pack of cigarettes from his body, took out two and handed them to the two old craftsmen. The two looked at him in astonishment, and took it casually. Xiang Que took the initiative to light them and asked; "Old man,  Judging by the way you repaired it just now, you are very proficient, you must have been maintaining the Buddha here for some years, right?"

    "How old is it? Hehe, I have been cultivating the Buddha since I was 19 years old, and it has been 35 years now. This old brother is not too young, maybe 27 or 8 years.  The temperature is high and the rain is constant in the rainy season. If it is not repaired frequently, the Buddha will be damaged more seriously.One is for work, and the other is because we are originally from Leshan. We can¡¯t bear to see that the Buddha built by Monk Haitong, which was originally built to suppress floods, is not getting better every year.  Can do it for several years¡±

    Xiang Que admired sincerely: "Cultivating Buddha, you two will definitely be able to cultivate immeasurable merits."

    The old craftsman laughed and said: "What are you talking about? The ancestors of the people in Leshan have a deep affection for this giant Buddha. If it weren't for the monk Haitong who built the giant Buddha, I'm afraid we would have been flooded by the river water long ago, or  Moved to another place, if you want to say that the merits are immeasurable, you must say that Haitong monk is the one."

    Xiang Que pointed at the face of the big Buddha, and asked in surprise: "I see that the eyes of this Buddha have been dripping with tears. It hasn't rained recently, and the sun is shining brightly. The weather is very hot, but why are the tears on the Buddha's eyes all the time?"  Didn't do it?"

    The two old craftsmen sighed faintly again, shook their heads and said: "This is a catastrophe, hey, something is not peaceful!"

    Xiang Que asked Zai; "Where did you start talking about this?"

    "This is the tear Monk Haitong shed for God and for the suffering people in the world"

    Monk Haitong was born in the early years of Kaiyuan in the Tang Dynasty. He became a monk at the age of 12 and learned from the eminent monk Huijing. At the age of 24, he left his teacher and traveled all over the world. After traveling thousands of miles, he finally came to Lingyun Mountain, where he built a thatched hut to practice.

    He believes that Lingyun Mountain is the ideal place for him to practice. The foot of the mountain is the confluence of Dadu River, Minjiang River, and Qingyi River. The river is like ten thousand horses galloping, roaring loudly, and boats are often destroyed.  .

    Seeing this situation, Haitong felt extremely sad. He contemplated day and night and finally came up with a way to dig a statue of Maitreya Buddha, the largest in the world, on a rock facing the river.  Anlan Zhentao, bless the common people.

    As soon as the news of the construction of the Giant Buddha spread, skilled craftsmen from far and near rushed to Lingyun Mountain to join hands with Haitong in building the Leshan Giant Buddha.  He travels thousands of miles with one bowl, raises funds from all directions, and finally returns with a full reward after going through hardships. After all, there are still many good people in the world, and many people generously donate to him.

    Later, when the governor of Jiazhou heard that Haitong had a lot of money, he brought a large number of followers to ask for it. Facing the threat, Haitong refused without fear.  , Buddha¡¯s fortune is hard to come by!¡±

    Haitong's arrogance and contempt angered the money-grubbing sheriff. He didn't believe that anyone would have the guts to gouge out his eyeballs, so he said angrily, "Then dig it out and have a look. If you don't, I'll destroy this Buddha."  , if you dig me, you will take someone away and won¡¯t interfere from now on.¡±

    Facing the threat from the sheriff, Haitong sat cross-legged, picked up a copper plate, without hesitation plucked out one of his eyes, put it on it, and silently raised it in front of the sheriff.

    Immediately, the county guard turned pale with fright and fled down the mountain in a hurry. He was startled by Monk Haitong's steadfastness and dared not do anything wrong.

    But before the completion of the Great Buddha, Haitong passed away. Many years later, his disciples took over the construction. When the Great Buddha was finished, the people all over the world buried his bones in the Great Buddha in order to thank him for his merits.  He was able to look at the confluence of the three rivers at his feet day and night, and pray for the people in the sky. Since then, people have come to worship this great Buddha almost every day. It is said that this Buddha has spirituality over time. Many people say that this is the manifestation of Monk Haitong who became a Buddha.

    The old craftsman said: "This Buddha is really alive. Whenever there is a catastrophe in the house, tears will flow from the eyes of the Buddha. I have practiced Buddhism for more than 30 years, and I have seen it many times.  One year, the Yellow River broke its embankment and tears hung for three days. On the eve of the Tangshan earthquake in 1970s, I happened to be repairing at that time. I saw the big Buddha crying on the same day, and I knew there must be another catastrophe. Sure enough, the first  There was an earthquake in Tangshan two days later, and there was a big flood in 1998"

    Another old craftsman pointed at the Buddha pitifully and said: "This time, I don't know where people will be affected again. I didn't see it yesterday. This morning, the tear stains were picked out. Hey, God is a disaster, Monk Haitong  Seeing that the common people are in trouble, he cries to God, this is"

    Xiang Que had an epiphany, and understood why the teardrops did not disperse. The Buddha may have a spirit, but the monk Haitong who was buried inside the Buddha attained enlightenment, just like the Buddha in the flesh, the person is dead but the spirit is still there.

    Xiang Que bowed to the Buddha respectfully, and his mind suddenly became clear, and he had a kind of cleanliness that could be understood with one click.

    The karma of Buddhism is really not something you can get by asking you to practice. The old monk who presides over the White Horse Temple is right. What you ask for is not what you can ask for, even if Xiang Que  If he stayed in the White Horse Temple for a year or two, it would definitely be in vain to wait, and there would be no results. Even if he traveled all over the world, he would still get nothing.
