Chapter 1712

Qiongdao is located at the southern tip of Huaxia, surrounded by the sea. It is also the second largest island in Huaxia. It belongs to the tropical area, where rice is harvested three times a year and fruits and vegetables are ripe all year round.

The Guanyin Temple is located in the southeast of Qiongdao. On the surface, it looks like an ordinary town among the countless fishing villages and towns along the coast.

The Guanyin Temple has been rooted in Qiongdao for hundreds of years, and the number of its descendants’ families or descendants has been considerable, with a total of more than 10,000 people. It is a fishing town at the town level.

Its geographical location is also excellent. The terrain is in the shape of a gourd. The butt of the gourd is the beach bay facing the sea. The mountains that encircle it into the shape of a gourd are not very high, but the rocks of the mountains are Directly connected to the sea, separating Beach Bay from other places.

The coastal area is very windy and there are frequent typhoons every year. Places too close to the sea are not suitable for living. Therefore, the beach and bay in the shape of a gourd butt are not inhabited. The relationship between Guanyin Hall and its descendants of all generations The descendants of the family settled in the head area of ​​Luhu.

There is a basin in the head of Luhu. There is an urban and rural road connecting the fishing town from the top of Luding. The closest distance between the fishing town and other towns is more than ten miles.

There is a natural road from the basin of Luhutou to the beach on the seaside, which is the only place for people in the fishing town to go fishing.

The mountains on both sides of the beach and bay are not connected to other areas. If you want to go to the beach and bay, you have to either take a boat ashore from the sea or climb over the mountains. The other way is of course from the fishing town. Come by.

The disciples of Guanyin Temple in Xiyu Town make a living by fishing and planting. The land in the basin is fertile and suitable for growing various tropical plants or fruits, and they live a prosperous life.

Under normal circumstances, the disciples or families of the Guanyin Hall do their rituals at sunrise and rest at sunset.

This year, everyone in the Guanyin Hall is not only ready to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, but also ready to welcome the disciples who have not yet entered the festival, and are looking forward to their arrival.

When the ancestors of Guanyin Temple settled in the local area, the architectural style retained the ethnic or regional characteristics of their disciples. The styles were diverse, and the architectural complex that integrated multiple elements also had a special charm.

The core inner courtyard of Guanyin Hall is a quadrangle, with overlapping courtyards and courtyards. There are single-family or single-story buildings on the periphery, and roads extend in all directions.

Because the coastal areas are windy and rainy, the most obvious common feature of the buildings is that all the houses are no more than two stories high, basically one floor.

In order to welcome the arrival of the new disciples and the Lejia girls, the disciples of the Guanyin Temple put up flags in the town square as guideposts to guide the helicopter to land.

They waited until mid-afternoon when they finally saw a helicopter coming from the north.

The little loli left Plum Village before eight o’clockSince E North is more than a thousand kilometers away from Qiongdao, it takes several minutes to fly. It also takes time to refuel the helicopter on the way. It took more than seven minutes to fly to the southeastern coastal area of ​​Qiongdao.

Little Lolita didn’t know where the Guanyin Temple was, but Mr. Yi pointed out the approximate location from the topographic map, and the general direction was correct. When he got there, he looked around again, and then he took his seat!

Mr. Le Xiao, who was flying a helicopter, flew to a certain area and found the place that Mr. Yi mentioned. He flew directly over the mountains and flew above a certain town. When he looked down, he found a certain place. flag of a place.

With the guidance of the flag, fly the plane to the top, circle around, and then land.

The square with the flag is made of stone and is located in the building complex. It is as big as a football field. There are people waiting in the east part of the square.

Le Yun parked the plane in an area near the center of the square. After landing, before the spiral could stop, she opened the cockpit door, jumped to the ground, shook her fists and said, "Thank you, gentlemen. I'll welcome you from a distance." "

The helicopter landed, and the disciples of the Guanyin Temple lined up were about to run to greet the guests. When they saw a pink girl in a purple dress appeared, they all clasped their fists in unison: "Little girl Le, I'll be polite!"

"Gentlemen, you're welcome." Le Yun greeted the greeting staff and ran around the nose of the plane to pick up Mr. Yi and his younger brother.

Mr. Yi sat in the cabin with his little disciple. He looked at the buildings below from the window and judged that the little girl had found the right place. When the plane landed, he happily hugged his little disciple and climbed into the cabin. Departure flight.

I stood on the hanging ladder and took a look. Haha, my nephew and his grandnephews were standing in a row on the east side. There were fifty or sixty people in total.

When the disciples of the Guanyin Hall saw the elder coming out, they all shouted to the elder who was wearing a dark red Tang suit and holding a little baby in a crimson robe: "Welcome, Master/Uncle /Uncle Master/Uncle Master."

Then he shouted: "Welcome Junior Brother/Uncle Master back to the sect!"

"Yes, yes, they are all good boys. Little Leshan is still too young and timid, so just yell once or twice. Don't keep yelling, it will frighten him." Mr. Yi was in a good mood, and he looked particularly pleased with his nephew and his grandsons. Holding the little baby in his arms and smiling happily at the bottom of the hanging ladder.

Li Zhao, who was in charge of leading the people to greet him, quickly ran up to his junior brother and Miss Le, and reached out to touch his little junior brother’s face: “Little junior brother, do you still remember your senior brother?”

“Remember, it’s Senior Brother Li.” Leshan smiled and rolled his eyes, and took the initiative to stretch out his hands for Senior Brother to hug him.

Li Zhao was so excited that he took the soft little junior brother and held him in his arms. He touched the little junior brother's round little head lovingly and then asked his uncle if he had any luggage.

　“The little girl brought the apprenticeGifts and a lot of other gifts were asked to be carried by the boys. The boxes with red, gold and purple notes were now moved to the main hall for the head to see, and the other boxes were moved to the guest room where the little girl lived. "

Mr. Yi couldn't hide the joy in his tone, and directly handed over the task of carrying the luggage to his nephew.

Others had also arrived quickly, and Li Zhao would The junior brother handed over to Miss Le, and he took the senior brothers and nephews to the helicopter cabin to carry their luggage.

Dozens of people quickly moved all the luggage out of the cabin. There were more than forty people in total. The largest box was as tall as Miss Le.

Le Yun wanted to carry her personal luggage by herself, but Mr. Yi did not agree. He picked out his backpack and gave it to a nephew. Let the younger generation of disciples do what he said.

Li Zhao, as a guide for the disciples, leads the way from the front.

The old ant holds his head high, walking like a dragon or a tiger, She walked away from her relatives.

Le Yun hugged her younger brother and walked side by side with Mr. Yi. She was amused by Mr. Yi’s expression and smiled from ear to ear.

Li Following the leading road, the group walked east first, then turned northeast, passed through many buildings and courtyards, and then turned into a very grand and large courtyard complex.

There is a Guanyin Hall in every district. When the disciples saw Elder Yi and the little girl, they greeted him politely.

They passed through the eighth courtyard in a row. The ninth courtyard was filled with rows of disciples, sitting in the courtyard. Facing south from the north, there are nine upper rooms in a row, three east and west wing rooms, and seven east and west wing rooms in a row.

Red lanterns are hung under the eaves of the courtyard, with auspicious and wishful characters on them. The main hall of the house has folding double doors, and the door is wide open. There are two rows of people lined up outside the door.

The middle hall maintains the traditional style of the Central Plains area. There is a long table with an incense burner, a vase, and a tripod. Under the long table is a wide Eight Immortals table. There are chairs on both sides of the table. There is a small coffee table between each two chairs and the other two chairs.

Main hall The same is true on the east and west sides, with Taishi chairs and coffee tables.

There are ten seats on each side of the Eight Immortals table in the middle hall. There are eight middle-aged and elderly people in a row on the west side. On the east and west sides of the middle hall, there are There were middle-aged and elderly men and women sitting there.

After entering the ninth courtyard, Le Yun raised her eyes and saw the scene in the upper room and the nave. She didn’t know what to say. The posture was clearly... The authoritative personnel of the Guanyin Hall are all present.

Such a big battle is a bit scary.

She is not afraid, but feels sorry for her baby brother. The apprenticeship ceremony will be held tomorrow. During the ceremony, we have to kowtow to our elders. There are so many people. How many times does my dear brother have to kowtow?

It feels like I have to kowtow to my forehead.The rhythm of the head.

She couldn't help but hug her brother tightly and silently moved forward.

The elder accompanied the guests into the courtyard. The disciples by the courtyard door had officially announced the news to the upper room. The disciples outside the upper room then reported to the middle hall. The most formal ceremony was followed.

Officially taking his young disciple back to the sect, Mr. Yi walked steadily, showing off the pride of a hegemon in the world, with a proud smile on his face that was brighter than the sun in the sky.

Walking to the steps in front of the upper room, Leyun put her brother down and let him go by himself.

Leshan grabbed his sister’s hand with one hand and climbed up the three steps with his short legs. When he got to the eaves, he looked at his sister and waited for instructions.

After going up the steps, Leyun stood at the door of the main hall of Guanyin Hall. She stopped walking and encouraged her younger brother: "Leshan, you are going back to your master's house for the first time today. Go into the main hall. Kowtow to the ancestors of your sect. Tomorrow, you will formally meet with the elders of your sect and then kowtow to the elders of your sect as a great gift."

"Okay!" Leshan nodded his little head, let go of his hand, and took care of himself. He straightened his clothes, stepped on his short legs, and walked to the main room without squinting.

Everyone in the main hall stood up when Li Zhao led the guests up the steps, and were about to welcome them out. They never thought that the little girl Le would let the little baby go into the hall to worship the ancestors of Guanyin Hall. stand still.

Everyone couldn’t hide their joy, and they all stared at the little baby approaching. The little baby was wearing a crimson robe with wide sleeves, a jade belt around the waist, and a jade banbu on the left side.

The little baby boy has a picturesque face, ice-cold muscles and jade bones. He is somewhat indistinguishable between male and female. His unblinking gaze cannot hide his cleverness and the magnanimity of his gestures. What is upright is that a gentleman is as elegant as jade, upright and upright.

Looking at the calm, calm, elegant and noble demeanor of the little baby, the people in the hall became more and more fond of him. They watched with smiles as he walked towards the hall step by step.

The little baby was too short. When he arrived at the temple gate, the threshold was too high and he couldn't take a step forward. A middle-aged disciple guarding the door stretched out his hand to help the little baby. Helped him cross the threshold.

Leshan smiled sweetly at the person who was supporting him, and without making a sound, he continued to walk forward, walking along the right hand side of the long carpet in the hall.

When I walked to the main room, which was still a few meters away from the seats and the row of people facing the door, I straightened up my appearance, lifted my robe again, lay down in a dignified manner, kowtowed, and reported with a milky voice. : "Le Shan, a disciple who has not yet entered, kowtows to his ancestors!"

Kowtow once, kowtow twice, and kowtow three times.

He kowtowed three times in the direction of the memorial tablet respectfully, then straightened his back.

When the little baby knelt down, everyone on the main seat alsoTurning around and facing the east, when the little baby kowtowed three times, Master Li of the Guanyin Hall raised his foot, flew over to the little boy, and picked up the little baby who still smelled of milk.

Seeing the head of Guanyin Hall hugging his younger brother, Le Yun's lips twitched: "Leshan, the person holding you is the head of your sect, and the head represents the entire sect. The highest spiritual leader, every disciple of a sect, regardless of their level of cultivation or seniority, must not be rude to the leader."

The current leader of Guanyin Hall, Li Jing, is ninety years old. Youyu, who looks about fifty years old, is wearing a dark red Tang suit embroidered with bamboo and wave patterns. He has an ordinary round face and his hair is meticulously combed.

With his appearance, walking on the street would make him look like passers-by A, B, and B. No one who is not an ancient cultivator would imagine that he is a leader of a certain sect.

Leader Li couldn’t put it down while holding the sweet and soft little boy. He stretched out his hand to touch the little guy’s head. When he heard little girl Le preaching to the little boy, he smiled warmly and said, “Little girl Le, we are My junior brother is still young, so speaking so seriously will scare him."

Turning to face his junior brother, he smiled more gently, for fear of scaring his ice sculpture-like junior brother. His voice was as soft as the willow wind in March: "Junior brother, I am the disciple of your third uncle. I am the seventeenth. I am your seventeenth senior brother. Your junior brother and I have the same surname. The seventeenth senior brother is Li Jing. Junior brother, just call him senior brother seventeen."

"Hello, brother Shi." Leshan was not afraid of strangers at all, and sweetly called him senior brother.

"Hmm, hello, little junior brother, you are so good!" Hearing the not-so-standard sound of milky milk from the senior brother, Master Li smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth and squeezed his little junior brother lightly with joy. With a pinch of his tender face, he handed the little baby boy to his uncle beside him, and then led everyone in the sect to walk out quickly.

Elder Xing, who was next to the nephew of the master, had a little baby stuffed into his arms. His expression was slightly startled at first, and then a smile appeared on his originally solemn and indifferent face, and his eyebrows bloomed like spring flowers. .

An old man next to him quietly stretched out his hand and rubbed the little baby's head. He received a smile from the little guy and immediately grinned.

Several elders did not hesitate and went with the head nephew to welcome the little girl.

They said they were walking, but in fact they were flying at a high speed. They flew out of the central hall lightly, and the others lined up in an orderly manner on both sides of the eaves.

Mr. Li, who is in the middle, greets the guests with formal etiquette: "Little Miss Le comes to Guanyin Hall, but we don't have to go far to welcome her. It's rude!"

"Li The head of the family is polite to all the seniors and gentlemen. It has been a long time since my younger brother worshiped in the Guanyin Hall. As the head of the Le family, I have only brought my younger brother to visit your sect today. I am here to pay my respects first." Le Yun cupped her fists and returned the salute.

Looking at the little girl and the bossWhile the apprentices and nephews were being polite to each other, Mr. Yi glared at him. He reached out and took his young apprentice from his brother's hand, urging him to hurry up: "Come on, little girl, you never like those vulgar etiquettes. You and my master master Nephew, don’t do silly things and go in for tea. My old man has been on a seven-minute flight and is dying of thirst.”

“Master uncle has a precious disciple, and he feels more and more We nephews and disciples are ignorant idiots." Headmaster Li joked with a smile and personally led the young head of the Le family into the hall.

Mr. Yi hugged his little disciple and said happily: "I'm not telling you, you are really not as considerate as my little disciple. You all always stare at me and don't give me a drink. What? We are not allowed to eat salted duck eggs either. This makes me very unhappy."

Elder Yi was shouting, but Head Li and others smiled widely and did not argue with him. .

Leshan is obedient and well-behaved. She doesn’t frown when someone hugs her. When she is held by her master, she rolls her eyes and looks at people.
