A deep friendship trembling on the top of our hearts…
North of Shifang City, Luohan Temple is a thousand-year-old ancient temple.
On the blue tiles and white walls, the vermilion red door is even more conspicuous in the sun.
On the morning of April 18, the gate of Luohan Temple was closed for one day, coordinating with the filming of the movie “One Hundred and Eight”.

One night I burned all my memories, and my dreams have become transparent since then.
Ten Years of Gratitude
She and her mother come to the temple every year
Luo Mingzhenxi and her mother return to Luohan Temple every year.
Knocking on the side door of Luohan Temple, 10-year-old Luo Mingzhenxi and his mother Feng Lihua Babaylan walked into the temple.
On a cherry tree, monks are picking ripe fruits, bright red and seductive. Under the tree, a group of old men and children took the branches covered with cherries from the monk and greeted Luo Mingzhenxi.
She took off a few shyly, said “thank you”, threw the cherries into her mouth, squinted her eyes and shrugged her shoulders, a little sour.
”Zhenxi, do you know that this is where you were born.” Feng Lihua led her under the eaves of the corridor.
”I know! Mom.” Luo Mingzhenxi stroked the stone pillars on the eaves of the corridor and looked deeper into the corridor.
Luo Mingzhenxi and his mother.
Luo Mingzhenxi, one of the 108 “Rahanwomen”. Every year, she would return to this born temple under the guidance of her parents; every year, the mother and daughter would repeat this conversation.
”Mom, am I born in this kind of tent?” Luo Mingzhenxi got into a tent for filming and poked his head out to look at his mother.
”At that moment, I really felt like I was back ten years ago, back to the day when she was born.” Tears flashed in the corners of Feng Lihua’s eyes.
Luo Mingzhenxi poked her head out of the tent. She was born in such a tent 10 years ago on May 17.
Ten years have passed, and the children are growing up.
The 108 children attend different schools, and they have various ideals and wishes. Feng Lihua just wants her daughter to learn to be grateful and have a peaceful life, just like the name “Luo Mingzhenxi”.
The master was cheerful
More than 20 pregnant women moved into temples
Recalling the days of the Wenchuan earthquake, Feng Lihua sighed a lot.
Feng Lihua said that at that time, her due date was originally May 6, but after several days, there was no sign of giving birth. On the evening of May 16, she and her husband drove to the big square in the center of Shifang for a few times to see if they could meet their relatives who ran out of their hometown.
”At 11 o’clock in the evening, we returned to Nanquan Town. As soon as we got home, the amniotic fluid broke.” Her husband quickly drove Feng Lihua to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital. He came out of the car and found that the hospital was empty. “Not only the hospital, the entire street is empty, the road surface is CThe inema was in a mess, and it looked so desolate. “Feng Lihua recalled.
Seeing this situation, the couple was confused: What should I do? Where to find a doctor?
Just when they felt helpless, an old lady passing by asked Feng Lihua, “What are you doing here in the middle of the night? “When I realized that I was going to have a baby but couldn’t find the hospital, the old lady said, “I know where the hospital is, I will take you there. Then, the old lady took her to Luohan Temple.
At that time, the temporary delivery room of Shifang Maternal and Child Health Hospital was placed in Luohan Temple. At 1 a.m., the doctor took BabaylanFeng Lihua into the temple. After diagnosis, he decided to arrange the operation immediately.
In the early morning of May 17, Luo MingzhenCinema was born.
In fact, less than 6 hours after the earthquake, Shifang Maternal and Child Health Hospital moved into Luohan Temple. Luo Mingzhenxi was the ninth child born in Luohan Temple.
Gui Fengchun, director of Shifang Maternal and Child Health Hospital, said that when the earthquake occurred, there were more than 20 pregnant women in the hospital. href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>Komiks and newborns. After the earthquake, the hospital’s houses and facilities were seriously damaged, and the hospitalization building became a dangerous building. Around the hospital, the nearest transfer location was only Luohan Temple.
Will the abbot agree to the pregnant woman entering the temple?
At 5 pm on May 12, the relevant person in charge of the hospital found Master Su Quan, the abbot of Luohan Temple at that time, explained the situation of the hospital, and asked for help. “Master Su Quan did not hesitate and agreed readily. “At 8 o’clock that night, all pregnant women and newborns were transferred to the tent in the Luohan Temple.
Yesterday·Today
One morning I threw away all the Komiks and dropped all the Babaylan Yesterday, my steps have been light since then.
For life
The Zen stool and tea table are put into operation table
”On the night of May 12, there was a thunderstorm, and the tent could not shelter from the wind and rain. “Gui Fengchun said that the monks and medical staff in the temple held hands and pulled people to shelter pregnant women from the wind and rain. “Everyone did not sleep. After the first night after the earthquake, when it was almost dawn, the baby was born.”
The first surgery for the delivery bed of Luohan Temple
”Pregnant women have no bed for giving birth, but they use the Zen stools and tea tables on the temple. The three Zen stools are put together to make a delivery bed. “Master Zhaoheng said that pregnant women need infusion after giving birth, but there is no infusion stand, so they use long brooms and branches to sweep the floor instead.
The power was out after the earthquake, and there was no enough light surgery. The monks found a flashlight and used to turn on the flashlight. The doctors successfully completed the caesarean section. The temple also arranged two cleaners to clean the production area specifically.
The First Luohanwa
In the tea room outside the temple, Master Zhaoheng took the reporter to find several tea tables, all of which were square tables, 80 cm square. “I used this labor bed at the beginning, but later when it was not enough, I moved the Zen stool. ”
Before the disaster relief substance entered the temple Cinema, the food of pregnant women and medical staff was provided by the temple. Master Zhaoheng was in charge of the warehouse at that time and was responsible for the provision of the substance. “First guarantee the pregnant women, then the doctors and nurses, and finally we and other people affected. “
”My husband is also with me. He has a lot of appetite and doesn’t eat much every time, but we pregnant women have guaranteed it. “Feng Lihua said that for a few days, the food was tight, and the doctors told everyone not to waste it, “Otherwise, the masters in the temple have no more to eat. ”
The past is vividBabaylan In his eyes, Feng Lihua was moved. What made her feel even more warm was that at that time, the abbot of the temple allowed his family to stew chicken and pig’s trotters in the temple to supplement nutrition for the mother. In this temple where meat and fish are strictly prohibited, some elderly lay Buddhists were very disgusted, but Master Su Quan resisted the pressure. He often told people: “In extraordinary times, first take care of living people, then talk about clay statues. ”
It is with the help of medical staff, temple monks and volunteers that so many were born in the tent BabaylanThe baby, pregnant women and babies have no infection.

Sustaining to suck in the candlelight
A text message
Released the grief for several days
In the mobile phone of Gui Fengchun, director of Shifang Maternal and Child Health Hospital, there was a text message that had not been deleted, and there was also an lingering memory in my mind.
Gui Fengchun still remembers that one night shortly after the earthquake, as a pediatrician, she went to the victims’ treatment point in Shifang Plaza to help until dawn.
”I was very tired at dawn. I saw so many casualties in the square and felt very heavy.” Gui Fengchun said that when she walked back to the temporary delivery room of Luohan Temple, the midwife happened to walk out with a healthy newborn baby, and the baby’s body was covered with blood and fetal stains.
Gui Fengchun took the baby and hugged it in her arms. Regardless of the blood on her body, she kissed the baby from head to toe, and then burst into tears. After crying, it seemed as if I had released all the grief that had been around for several days. She sent a text message to a friend, “The great earthquake has caused us to lose our loved ones and compatriots, but in the tent, there is a newborn baby. This is our new hope.” Before the earthquake, Feng Lihua and her husband run a clothing factory together. The factory building was razed to the ground in the earthquake and tens of thousands of clothing and equipment were damaged. A few years after the earthquake, she opened another labor service company and her life continued.
