Chapter 319 Egg white sheep tail? Tour Guoqing Temple
After Li Luotang's trouble, he wasted a lot of time and could not reach the town in front and could only stay overnight in the suburbs.
It was hazy and Li Luotang jumped off the tree and rode his horse to continue on his way.
In the town ahead, she went in as soon as the city gate opened.
It was still early, and there were not many pedestrians on the street, so how many stalls sell breakfast?
The strong food fragrance comes from the lingering heat.
Li Luotang stood in front of a stall with the egg white sheep tail sign written on it, and then looked at the fat meatballs floating in the oil pan, "Is this called egg white sheep tail?"
Wrap it with sesame seeds and it is the mahjong cake.
The most important thing is, is this thing related to the sheep's tail?
"Young master, try it, it's delicious." The stall owner smiled.
"Okay, five." Li Luotang said.
Later, Li Luotang learned that the egg white sheep tail had another name called Xuemiandou bean paste.
It is made of vegetable oil, egg white, lard, bean paste and wheat flour as raw materials, and add wheat flour to egg white.
Stir with chopsticks constantly, beat the egg white into fine foam, and insert the chopsticks into it without falling down.
Then put the pre-made bean paste balls wrapped in pig net oil into boiling oil and fry them slightly yellow. Take them out and put them in a basin, sprinkle them with white sugar, and serve them on the table.
This snow-wool bean yarn has excellent color, aroma and taste, oily but not greasy, sweet but not choking, and not crispy.
After Li Luotang had breakfast, she did not rush out of the city and found a small inn to stay in. Tomorrow she planned to go to Tiantai Mountain.
Tiantai Mountain connects Xianxia Ridge to the southwest and Zhoushan Islands from the northeast.
It is 18,000 feet high and 800 miles a circle. The mountain has eight levels and is the same as one on all sides.
The difference between the female ox is because it is called Tiantai because it is suitable for the Tai Su, and the Guangfu Zi Chen.
Tiantai Mountain has a long history and is the world's best mountain that combines the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.
Above the mountain, clouds are covered with mist, and the green mountains are completely shrouded in the mist.
Tiantai Mountain has beautiful scenery, watching the sea of clouds in spring, enjoying the mountain flowers in summer, watching the sunrise in autumn, and watching the snow in winter.
It’s just that the mountain road is built beside the mountains, winding and rugged, and only three horses can be used to travel in parallel at a wide area.
Li Luotang went to Guoqing Temple. Although he didn't like the temple, there was a Sui plum tree in Guoqing Temple that was more than a thousand years ago.
There are also the unique baby-faced statue of Sakyamuni Buddha, as well as the Eighteen Arhats carved from nanmu.
The most important thing is that the small bamboo basket she was carrying today contained rice paper and smoke ink, which was to rub the cliff carvings left by Wang Xizhi, Liu Gongquan and others.
"Listen to the evening drums and morning bells, and read the bright moon and the green pines." Li Luotang remembered that in modern times, someone said that Guoqing Temple was as quiet and beautiful as described in the poem.
There is Hanshi Pavilion outside the mountain gate, and the famous question Hanshan and Shide hung on it.
Hanshan asked Shide: "How can people in the world deal with slandering me, bullying me, insulting me, laughing at me, despising me, lying to me, lying to me?"
Shide said, "Just tolerate him, let him avoid him, let him, be patient, respect him, ignore him, and ignore him. You will see him in a few years."
Li Luotang curled his lips, "I'm afraid that I'll be so frustrated by then, and I won't have the chance to see it."
She still likes to avenge her vengeance instead of sitting and watching the cause and effect.
What's more, there is no karma in many cases.
Otherwise, there would be no such thing as murder and setting fires, repairing bridges and roads without corpses.
Guoqing Temple is located along the mountain and is rising from top to top.
Outside the temple gate is a large area of farmland, and the buildings in the temple are arranged according to four north-south axes and are divided into five longitudinal axes.
All buildings are built according to the terrain, not parallel to each other, nor perpendicular to each other, and are naturally scattered everywhere, appearing harmonious and harmonious.
Outside the Main Hall of Guoqing Temple, four camphor trees are planted, full of vitality and shaded over the courtyard.
The pilgrims were kowtowing to the camphor tree devoutly. Li Luotang was surprised and found a kind-looking old woman and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Worship the tree god, this tree was planted by the gods from heaven." The old woman replied.
There are always some legends about the Taoist temples, and whether this tree is planted by a god or not is actually not important.
Li Luotang walked into the Main Hall, and the main in the hall offered a seated statue of Sakyamuni Buddha.
There is a small white jade Buddha in front of the statue, standing next to it, and there are eighteen Arhats of Nanmu on both sides.
Behind the Buddha's niche is the island Guanyin, behind which is the statue is the Cihang Pudu group.
Guanyin can be said to be the most familiar Bodhisattva to pilgrims. He saves suffering and will always respond to all requests.
There are the most pilgrims here, and they pray to the Bodhisattva devoutly.
Li Luotang did not go to burn incense to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas like other pilgrims, and she went directly to see the baby-faced Buddha Shakyamuni.
The statues of Sakyamuni Buddha are all solemn, and it is rare to see Sakyamuni Buddha with a baby face.
The monk of the Knowledge is talking to the pilgrimage about the Eightfold Path, "...Regular thinking means that when a person sees the Four Noble Truths, he will think and think, observe the amount, and increase the observation. Rear words means that a person has unobstructed wisdom..."
Li Luotang stood and listened for a while, but found that he didn't understand very much.
As expected, she has no Buddhist connection, so she should go in.
There is a small courtyard on the left side of the hall. When you enter the door, you will see the "Plum Pavilion" with a hexagonal spire.
On the stone platform under the red wall opposite the pavilion, there is an ancient plum tree.
It is said that this was planted by the fifth ancestor of Tiantai Sect when the temple was first built. The main trunk resurrected with rugged branches. At this time, the trees were full of flowers and the cold fragrance was rising.
There are not many pilgrims here, only a few people who look like scholars.
One paints in the pavilion, and the other ones either enjoy the plum blossoms or the paintings.
Seeing Li Luotang coming, the few people nodded with smiles and were quite polite.
Li Luotang smiled and nodded and returned the greeting. After seeing the ancient plum blossoms, he went to the Three Venerables Hall.
The worship in the hall is Hanshan, Shide and Fenggan. Walking from the right of the Three Venerables Hall, you can see a larger courtyard.
There are two floors of attics on the stage, and the plaque says: Miaofa Hall.
On the second floor is the Sutra Library, and downstairs is the Taizong sermon, which is where the monks in the temple preach.
There are magnolia and bananas planted in front of the hall. They are not the flowering period of magnolia, but the bananas are full of greenness.
Li Luotang went out from the back door of Guoqing Temple and headed to Tianhu.
Tianhu is a little far from Guoqing Temple, but Li Luotang has good light skills. She arrived with ups and downs.
At this time, it was almost noon and the sun rose.
The clouds faded, everything became clear, the grass on the mountain was lush with lush trees, the sun was soft, the air was fresh, and it seemed to have a hint of sweetness.
Suddenly hearing the sound of weapons hitting, Li Luotang frowned.
Why do she always encounter such things in the world when she travels around the country?
No matter what, I'm curious.
Keep it in mind, there is nothing to play anymore.
After pondering for a while, Li Luotang decided to go there, who made her a hero in the world?
She swept forward gently along the sound. As she approached, she carefully hid herself, slowly pulled open the weeds and looked forward.
