Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below.

    Since ancient times, the Jiangnan area has been a land of plenty and a place where rich families gather.

    But even today, despite the ancient praise, Suzhou and Hangzhou are no longer the places that modern people yearn for.  The name of paradise also changed to Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Wanwan.

    After coming out of the train station, Jiang Le followed the crowd and stepped into this city that has been famous for centuries. Unfortunately, the small bridges and flowing water in his imagination and the buildings with gilded green tiles have all turned into high-rise buildings.

    The modern atmosphere is very strong, and the ancient style is missing.

    With a quiet sigh, Jiang Le felt inexplicably disappointed.

    Jiang Le bought a tourist map at a hotel. After looking at it, Jiang Le found that the train station was very close to the West Lake. Along the West Lake Avenue opposite the station, it was estimated that he could walk to the West Lake in a few dozen minutes.

    With such a short distance, Jiang Le didn¡¯t want to take a car. He walked slowly and soon reached the West Lake.

    At a glance, the entire West Lake is vast and vast, with layers of water ripples and the air filled with moisture.

    There are yachts going back and forth in the lake, and tourists are playing.

    The shore is surrounded by weeping willows. Unfortunately, the season is wrong and there is no picturesque scenery.

    Walking slowly along the jade-built shore, Jiang Le had no expression on his face.

    Although West Lake is famous, what you see along the way is nothing but ordinary things.  This made Jiang Le's interest lessened a bit.

    In the eyes of ascetics, the West Lake without aura is no different from ordinary landscapes.

    ??Continuing to move forward, I don¡¯t know how long I walked, but there were more tourists in front of me.

    When he walked in and asked, Jiang Le understood.

    ¡°I have arrived at the Qianwang Temple, one of the ten scenic spots in the West Lake.

    This made Jiang Le a little curious.

    After practicing Taoism for a long time, Jiang Le also understood.  There are righteous gods in heaven and earth, but there are also artificial gods.

    The so-called artificial god means that future generations build temples.  As the incense continues, over time, faith can make the souls of the ancestors possess the statue paper and form a golden body.

    But now that the righteous gods of heaven and earth have disappeared, I don¡¯t know if this man-made god exists?

    With a move in his heart, Jiang Le went to the ticket office and bought a ticket, and then went in with the tourists.

    Observe along the way.  Still disappointed with what I saw.

    The layout of the scenic spot is good, but in Jiang Le¡¯s eyes, the Qianwang Temple is lifeless.  No aura at all.  Instead, all kinds of worldly tackiness permeated the air.

    We went directly to the main hall of King Qian Temple, where many people were enjoying the tour. The incense and sacrifices that should have existed in the temple were no longer there, which made Jiang Le a little speechless.

    No more incense.  Gods will starve to death!

    ??Looked around.  Jiang Le saw something that left him speechless.

    Protect scenic spots and strictly enforce incense. Violators will be fined NT$1,000.

    ?????????????????????????? Well, man can establish gods, and he can also kill gods.  God knows whether Qian Wangling, who has been worshiped for hundreds of years, will be wiped out like this. That would be really tragic.

    Not finding any spiritual existence, Jiang Le lost interest in admiring it.  Shi Shiran left the Qianwang Temple and continued to watch along the West Lake.

    Time passes.  As the sun sets and the moon rises, thousands of lights begin to dominate the night.

    Jiang Le walked around the West Lake for a long time, and finally gave up and continued walking.

    West Lake is still the same West Lake, but West Lake is no longer the West Lake it used to be.

    After taking one last look at the water waves still moving with the wind, Jiang Le turned around and left directly. The current West Lake was not worthy of his attention.

    After finding a hotel to stay at, Jiang Le decided to check out the Lei Feng Tower tomorrow.

    It is said that the current Leifeng Pagoda has also become a scenic spot. If the former Zen Master Fahai knew about this, would he be so angry that he committed murder?

    Of course, Jiang Le is more curious about what kind of restrictions exist in a Buddhist pagoda like Leifeng Pagoda, which allows people to enter and exit at will without discovering the monsters suppressed in the tower.

    After a night of repairs, Jiang Le left the hotel early the next morning, hailed a taxi and headed to Leifeng Pagoda.

    Leifeng Pagoda is built on the Xizhao Peak, in front of Jingci Temple at the foot of Rihui Peak on Nanping Mountain on the south bank of West Lake in Hangzhou.

    The name of Leifeng Pagoda is also named after Lei Feng, the remaining vein that leads Nanping Mountain to the north.

    Of course, this is a common saying. According to what Master Mao Xiaofang said, the three characters of Leifeng Pagoda contain some kind of wonderful truth, especially the word "Thunder". It is said that when Leifeng Pagoda was first built, the heaven and earth felt it and rained down golden flowers.  To celebrate.  A local big demon was alerted and learned the usefulness of Leifeng Pagoda. He was so angry that he wanted to destroy Leifeng Pagoda. However, as soon as the big demon got close to Leifeng Pagoda, he was killed by a phantom with the word "Thunder".  The name of the tower can shock both Taoist and demon cultivators.

    Most of itAn hour later, the taxi stopped outside the Leifeng Pagoda scenic area. After paying, Jiang Le walked in the direction of Leifeng Pagoda.  His eyes were also looking at the Leifeng Pagoda, half of which was exposed on the sunset mountain peak.

    What you see is extremely ordinary.

    This made Jiang Le a little curious. Could it be that after hundreds of years, the Leifeng Pagoda will disappear into the world of monasticism?

    Arriving at the entrance of the scenic spot, Jiang Le was surprised to find that there were many more tourists in the Leifeng Pagoda scenic spot than in other places, and many of them were couples coming together.

    After listening quietly for a while, Jiang Le's expression became strange.

    These lovers all came to worship White Snake and Xu Xian. I don¡¯t know who spread the word. It is said that as long as men and women are sincere and invest money in the ruins, they can be moved by White Snake to bless them and make the love between men and women  Become pure and long-lasting.

    Not to mention how commercial this statement is, it completely deceives tourists from the perspective of the story.

    Let¡¯s talk about White Snake, that fictional love character can also bless people?  The real Sister Bai is now suffering in Leifeng Pagoda. Is this considered a sincere stimulation?

    Jiang Le smiled interestingly, bought a ticket, and followed everyone into the Leifeng Pagoda Scenic Area.

    Not long after walking, Jiang Le heard the sound of jingling. Looking carefully, he saw that the men and women were throwing coins. In just a few breaths, dozens of coins fell into the ruins. From the sound, he knew what was inside the ruins.  The coin is almost full again.

    ¡°It¡¯s so fast to make money.¡± Jiang Le secretly admired.

    ??Continue going in and arrive in front of Leifeng Pagoda.

    Other tourists were entering and exiting at will, while Jiang Le stood outside Leifeng Pagoda, looking at Leifeng Pagoda with a puzzled expression.

    Master said that Leifeng Pagoda is a Buddhist place to suppress demons, but why didn¡¯t I feel the extraordinaryness of Leifeng Pagoda at all?

    Ordinary buildings, ordinary appearances, Buddhist light, and the mystery of the word "Thunder" have no reaction at all.

    Do you really lack a Buddhist instrument to guide you?

    Jiang Le had a thoughtful expression on his face.

    "Hey brother!" A big hand patted Jiang Le.

    His thoughts were interrupted, Jiang Le frowned and looked over. He was a young man in his twenties, wearing a travel hat, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, I want to take a photo here, you can help  Me?"

    Photograph?

    Jiang Le glanced at him and found that there was a girl with a pretty face and a tall figure following the young man.

    Seemingly aware of Jiang Le¡¯s gaze, the young man laughed in a low voice: ¡°I¡¯m chasing my girlfriend. This time I worked hard to invite her to visit Leifeng Pagoda together. Brother, do me a favor.¡±

    The beauty of adulthood is to do good, but it is just a matter of effort.

    Jiang Le smiled and said, "Okay, get ready." He took the young man's camera.

    "Thank you, brother." The young man was overjoyed, and then ran up to the girl. After saying a few words, he pulled the girl to Leifeng Pagoda and posed towards Jiang Le, but the posture made people speechless.

    The woman is domineering and tomboyish, while the man is lovable and looks like a daughter-in-law.

    Jiang Le was stunned, then smiled and raised the camera.

    "Huh?" (To be continued)
