Chapter 13 Exploring Xiangguo Temple at Night

I didn't speak, but listened silently to the quarrels and did not express any opinions.

Chunting seemed to be our only choice now, but what Xue Nan said was equally reasonable and well-founded, so I did not make a choice, but stood quietly aside, waiting for them to make the final decision.

Chunting seemed confident. After saying that mysterious and mysterious words, he looked at Xue Nan and said softly.

"Xue Nan, don't worry, if this person really makes a bad plan, then he doesn't need this mysterious three-person appointment at all. The reason why he pretends to be mysterious is that there are some things that want to have a good chat with Han Chuan, and he doesn't want to be disturbed by outsiders during this period."

"The reason I just said that if we leave before we return at dawn is just to be careful. This is the most unlikely possibility, and you don't have to worry about it at all."

Chunting spoke to Xue Nan this time, with a gentle tone that he rarely saw. After all, Xue Nan was a woman deeply trapped in love. When she saw Chunting's appearance that was rare in a century, she suddenly turned red and hesitated and could no longer be consistent. Naturally, she could not make an effective rebuttal to Chunting.

"I have decided, so don't advise me. If this person is an enemy, the three of us can protect ourselves if we are at the least. If this person is a friend, then there will be no problems with the three of us."

When the others saw Xue Nan's appearance, they knew that she had fallen into Chunting's rare tenderness, so they wanted to persuade Chunting to give up this adventure in their own way, but before everyone could speak, Chunting took the lead and said to them.

"This person is very clear. If there is one more person, he will be afraid that he will avoid him. Then we may never know the true identity of this person again, and we will not know what he wants to say to Han Chuan tonight. This is not a huge regret."

"What's more, I seem to know who this so-called old friend is..."

"Brother Ting, do you know the true identity of the person who sent the message here?"

When everyone heard Chunting's last words, they were all excited and couldn't help but look at Chunting, wanting to know who the person he was talking about was.

"No need to ask. Although I have a general idea in my mind, since he doesn't want to reveal his identity, it should be because of his own reasons. Why should I be this evil person?"

I don’t know if Chunting really cares about this person’s thoughts or because what he said just now was just an excuse to everyone. In short, he did not tell the true identity of the person he was talking about, but changed the subject and arranged a place for everyone to settle down.

"On the way here, I noticed that there was an inn for you to rest. The terrain was open and if something happened, it was easy to leave. You can now return along the original road, and after two intersections, you can see the inn in my mouth."

Although he was unwilling to accept it, Chunting was determined and everyone had no other choice. He could only tell us to be more careful in everything, and then he turned back one step and three times to go back to the place where Chunting said he was at his foot.

After everyone left, Yihe and I stood there blankly, looking at Chunting with questions.

"Let's go."

Chunting seemed to have not seen the puzzled eyes of both of us. He simply raised his head to identify the direction and guided us forward.

"It's time for us to meet this so-called old friend."

Then, he took a big step forward and headed to the destination of our trip, Daxiangguo Temple, without any support.

Seeing Chunting like this, Yihe and I knew that he didn't want to say much about it, so we could only keep up with him and remain speechless all the way.

Chunting seems to have visited this famous Daxiangguo Temple before. We are very familiar with it and have no hesitation at all. Under his leadership, we soon arrived at the mountain gate of Daxiangguo Temple.

The mountain gate of Daxiangguo Temple was originally built in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, but unfortunately it was unfortunately destroyed by artillery fire. Later, a brick archway was built to be used as a mountain gate. What we see now is a palace-style mountain gate.

Because it was dark, we did not see the specific details clearly. We could only see the four words "Daxiangguo Temple" written on the plaque under the moonlight, and the couplets on the mountain gates on both sides.

The ancient temple celebrates the heavy light for thousands of years, and the fire and wars have been destroyed by the treasures and their lives have been established.

The Dharma Cloud Knowledge Period is the broadest and chasing of all the people in the world to protect and recite and recite the wishes of all the people in the world.

In addition, we discovered another most unreasonable thing.

That is, the mountain gate of Daxiangguo Temple is now wide open, as if you know we will come late at night.

It was already midnight at night, and Daxiangguo Temple should have closed the door to thank the guests, but it would never have been possible to show the appearance of the mountain gate open.

But as we saw it with our own eyes, we can only prove that this so-called old friend has a complicated relationship with Daxiangguo Temple, and can even persuade the abbot to open the mountain gate late at night, waiting for our arrival.

Perhaps it was because of my worry in my heart. At this moment, in my eyes, under the deep night, the mountain gate was like a beast opening its huge mouth, waiting for the three of us to enter, as if they wanted to swallow us.

After discovering that the mountain gate was wide open, Chunting suddenly stopped and turned around and looked at us and asked.

"Daxiangguo Temple is famous, do you know about it?"

When I heard Chunting ask, I nodded and said to him.

"Although I haven't really been here, I've seen some introductions in the book."

Then, I slowly expressed my impression of Daxiangguo Temple.

Daxiangguo Temple, originally named Jianguo Temple, was built in the Northern Qi Dynasty. During the Yanhe period of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Ruizong of Tang commemorated his ascension to the throne by King Xiang, so he was named Daxiangguo Temple.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, Xiangguo Temple was highly respected by the royal family and expanded many times. It was the largest temple and Buddhist activity center in the capital. It was later damaged due to war and floods. It was repaired twice during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty and was named "Chongfa Temple".

During the Shunzhi period, Emperor Shunzhi rebuilt the mountain gate, the Heavenly King Hall, the Great Hall, etc., and renamed the Xiangguo Temple. Later generations also repaired this many times during the reign of Kangxi, Jiaqing and Daoguang periods.

"Yes, you're not a short-sighted person."

Chunting nodded with satisfaction, but did not explain the meaning of his question, nor did he say anything else. Instead, he turned around and walked into the wide open mountain gate without hesitation, entering the thousand-year-old ancient temple.

After seeing Chunting's actions, Yihe and I looked at each other and looked at each other speechlessly.

The three of us came together. Since Chunting had made his own choice, even though I and Yihe were reluctant, they could only follow his steps and enter the Daxiangguo Temple, which has a thousand-year history through this strange mountain gate.
