There is a temple in the suburbs of Beijing. Because there are ten clay-shaped golden bodies and lifelike Buddha statues in the temple, it is called the "Ten Buddha Temple" and is a famous ancient temple.
Whenever the spring examination is held, scholars who go to Beijing to take the exam often like to stay in the temple. There is an old monk in the temple who read a lot of books and is well-educated. He wrote the first couplet with the monastery as the title, hoping to test the talents of these scholars.
million bricks and kilowatts and hundreds of crafts have created ten Buddha temples
cleverly embed the name of the temple into the couplet, and also contains ten, hundreds, thousands, and million numbers, harmonious and natural. After posting, many scholars and scholars from the past were stumped, and no one could continue the second couplet for a long time.
One day, two scholars came to the temple. They read the first couplet but did not come out for a moment. The next morning, they left Shifo Temple and rafted on a boat. They walked through an stone bridge, , and couldn't help but be intoxicated by the beautiful scenery along the river. A scholar asked the boatman: "What is the bridge called that stone bridge?" The boatman replied: "This is the famous Four Immortal Bridge." Before he finished speaking, another scholar clapped his hands thoughtfully and said, "Oh, the second couplet is here!" The two of them immediately turned the bow of the boat, returned to the temple, took paper, pen, ink and ink, and wrote the second couplet: One oar, two oars, three people crossed the Four Immortal Bridge
The old monk read it and claimed it was wonderful.
