Volume 1 Odd Jobs Against the Sky Relic
Suddenly, there was a burst of Buddhist scriptures outside the door, I don't know when those monks have gathered at the door, chanting the scriptures, He Peng listened carefully, and heard that the Buddhist scriptures are "The Buddha Says Amitabha Sutra": Then the Buddha told the elder Sariputta, from the West, over ten trillion Buddha land, there is a world name called Bliss. ...... If you hold on to the name, if you have one day, if you have two days, if you have three days, if you have four days, if you have five days, if you have six days, if you have seven days, you will not be disturbed. When he was dying......
This is the transcendence of the person who goes to the Western Elysium after death.
He Peng was secretly annoyed, these individuals were too anxious, and the master began to be overly afraid that the master would not go to Elysium before he died!
The old monk opened his eyes suddenly, and said: "After the time of the child, my life will be extinguished, you should follow my wishes, and immediately incinerate my body, without delay, after the incineration, Lord He will personally collect my ashes like a clay pot for temporary preservation, and then the affairs will be fully responsible for your senior brother Dazhi, he will become the next presiding officer, and he cannot be violated, do you remember?"
Outside the house, the voices of the disciples were heard, which contained a faint sadness, and then the chanting was even louder.
After the old monk finished speaking, he gave He Peng a look, and said softly: "My apprentices are quite powerful, take the ashes and leave immediately, don't stay! ”
He Peng felt more and more that things were strange, but the old monk suddenly closed his eyes, and the bell rang, and the old monk died of anger.
Before He Peng could react, the disciples outside the house rushed in crying and shouting, kneeling in the house and kowtowing to the old monk.
He Peng didn't know how they knew that the old monk had died, but when the bell rang, he felt the old monk's cardiac arrest with high-speed perception, and the person was indeed dead.
He Peng said suddenly: "Have you forgotten your master's last words? ”
Monk Dazhi raised his head and looked at He Peng, and he couldn't see anything special except sadness, so he touched away his tears and said, "Thank you for the reminder." ”
As he spoke, he personally walked behind the old monk, and hugged the body of the old monk sitting on the ground with both hands on his chest.
Dazhi took the disciples out, He Peng also followed, outside the door is the inner courtyard, the inner courtyard is narrow and not suitable for burning, through the main hall has been out of the temple, the temple is in front of the pilgrims to burn incense, now the incense burner has been replaced by a two-meter-high tic-tac-toe wooden frame built of logs, Dazhi jumped to the top of the shelf, put the remains of the old monk in the big iron plate at the top, and then jumped down.
A little monk took a torch and handed it to Dazhi, Dazhi still seemed to be hesitating to incinerate it immediately, He Peng shouted: "Great monk, the master's last wish must be obeyed!"
Dazhi turned his head and glared at He Peng, and said angrily: "I want you to say more about the monk!"
He was furious, but he stepped forward and threw the torch on the firewood under the shelf.
The firewood had already been poured with grease, and it burned when it caught fire, and the fire engulfed the old monk in the blink of an eye.
He Peng saw the burning person for the first time, and he felt a little uncomfortable, for fear that the old monk would come back to life after half of the burn, and in the martial arts novel, these old monks would be able to fake their death, and it would be miserable if they were burned half of the time!
However, everything was safe and sound, and the fire started, and the monks sat cross-legged on the ground and chanted the Buddhist scriptures, or the "Buddha Says Amitabha Sutra": At that time, the Buddha told the elder Sariputta that from the West, over ten trillion Buddha lands, there is a world name called Bliss...... If you are not disturbed for seven days......
Some monks read Buddhist scriptures, tears just clicked and fell, obviously they had true feelings for the old monk, He Peng couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and hid to the side, how to burn it for a while, come back later.
In the summer mountains, the mountain breeze is cool, but there is no moon in the sky, and a few small stars are not too bright, which may be the cause of the fire, the insects are far away and can't hear the chirping, the fire frame is blazing, it should be seen from afar, the sound of the monks chanting the scriptures is full of sadness, but it also has a firm belief in going to the Western Bliss, which makes people inexplicably produce a solemn and sacred feeling.
Suddenly, He Peng felt that he couldn't hear anything, only the sound of chanting, which was very similar to the feeling of not feeling the sound in the middle of the night in the fishing village that day, the only difference was that he couldn't feel any sound that day, and today he couldn't hear any sound except for the sound of chanting.
He Peng turned his head suddenly, looked at the heaven and earth, and faintly felt that this piece of heaven and earth was shrouded by a strong force......
He Peng's spine trembled inexplicably, his heart panicked, he walked back to the monks quickly, Monk Dazhi raised his eyes and glanced at him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, I don't know if it was mockery or chanting.
The fire lasted for three hours and gradually went out, the old monk had turned into ashes, and when the iron plate cooled down slightly, a monk moved the iron plate down.
Immediately, someone exclaimed: "Relics, the master has burned the relics, and the master has become a Buddha!"
Some of the monks surrounded the past with surprise, and some were excited to chant the scriptures even louder.
He Peng came to the front to watch, several times was squeezed out by the monks, He Peng angrily used brute force to pull away a few small monks who were not long-eyed, squeezed into the circle inside, Dazhi squatted on the ground with a torch, the firelight shone on the iron plate, in addition to the white bone scum and ashes, there are a few crystal beads, the shape of the beads is not perfect round, but each piece is moist and crystalline, faintly shining in the firelight!
He Peng had never seen the relics, but he was convinced at a glance that this was undoubtedly a relic, the relics were made by the cultivators due to the Taoist power of precept and wisdom, and it was the appearance of the harmony between the heart and the Buddha, He Peng was shocked in his heart, and he didn't expect that someone could really burn the relics.
Dazhi stretched out his hand to touch it, but was stopped by He Peng.
"Monk Dazhi, do you remember the master's will, now is the time for me to collect the bones. ”
The Great Wisdom Monk glanced up at He Peng, his expression was even more unhappy, but he didn't say anything, got up and walked away, and then took back a clay pot and put it on the ground.
"There is a giver. ”
He Peng squatted on the ground, using the small shovels prepared by the monks and the brooms used to sweep the bed, shoveling the ashes into the clay pot at once, and the ashes of the dead were a little awkward in his heart, he turned around and said: "Alas, don't surround it, you will encounter the ashes for a while, and you will chant the scriptures on the side, and the master will be happy when he dies?"
Some of the monks immediately 'woke up' and returned to the team of chanting, but Dazhi and the two little monks did not leave, they stared at He Peng tightly, as if they were afraid that He Peng would scatter the ashes, and reminded from time to time 'Be careful', 'There is still there', He Peng finally swept all the ashes in the plate together, piled them in the corner of the iron plate, and said to Dazhi, come and do me a favor to move the iron plate, I will sweep them into the jar.
Dazhi did not doubt that he had him, and together with the other two monks, he Peng carefully swept the ashes into the jar.
A little monk saw that He Peng was doing it seriously, and said with emotion: "The donor is really a person who is dedicated to the Buddha, and we will pray for the donor in the future." ”
He Peng suddenly asked, "Little monk, how old are you?"
The little monk was stunned: "I'm nineteen years old, and the donor asked what this is for." ”
He Peng pondered, and suddenly asked Dazhi again, "How old are you older than him, great monk?"
Dazhi was stunned when asked, they chant the Buddha all day long and rarely think about their own age, if they have to compare with other people's ages to calculate the difference, it will take a lot of brains, and they are even more vaguely strange in their hearts Why did He Peng ask this question?
Dazhi said, "I...... ...... than him."
He Peng hugged the clay pot violently and ran away!
All the monks were dumbfounded, and the little monk who was asked about his age was the first to react and asked urgently: "Master He, why are you going?"
Dazhi suddenly came to his senses and slammed the iron plate he was holding in his hand in the direction He Peng ran!
But the iron plate is not grabbed by him alone, the two little monks also grasp it, and because it is related to the abbot's bones, they are very careful to grasp tightly, the big monk threw it away with the iron plate, so that naturally it will not be far away, the little monk and the iron plate fell to the ground, the two little monks picked up the iron plate in a panic and hurriedly asked, "Master Dazhi, what's wrong, what's wrong......
Dazhi had no leisure for them, and violently chased He Peng, but He Peng had already run into the darkness.
The sounds around them suddenly returned, the sound of crickets, the sound of wild birds chirping at night, and the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.
The great monk ran wildly, ran into the darkness, looked into the distance, the leaves were shaking, and there was no trace of He Peng, and he shouted angrily in the sky: "Piff!
At this time, those monks who chanted the scriptures also reacted and rushed over.
Asking nonsense is not an idea.
The great wisdom monk said angrily: "Search, search the mountain, turn the mountain over, and find him for me!"
The monks took torches one after another, some chased them down the mountain road, and some searched for suspicious places all over the mountains. It's just that the night is too dark and the mountain is too big!
He Peng ran along the mountain road for a while, and with his memory, he slid directly down a gentle slope, rolled several times, and almost broke the jar, but fortunately, He Peng stretched out his hand quickly and was in excellent physical condition, so he saved the jar in the rapid escape.
When he came, because the road up the mountain was all steps, so the car stopped on the side of the road below the mountain, He Peng ran all the way down breathlessly, and when he was about to reach the side of the road, he whistled, and the big ash let out a howl and came out of the grass.
Da Ash was very smart and saw that He Peng seemed to have done something bad and was being chased, so he stopped making a sound and followed He Peng into the car, He Peng didn't even dare to turn on the headlights, so he ran along the mountain road.
After running out for a long time, He Peng still had palpitations, and said in his heart that he had offended these great monks to death, and he couldn't come here again in this life.
Suddenly, I was worried, damn it, what if they found out who I was? Is it a crime to steal a monk's relics? Oh, I did this according to the old monk's last words, but there is no recording, who will prove it to me?
He Peng panicked with the ashes altar in his heart, and hurriedly destroyed the evidence without doing anything, which buried the old monk's bones!
So the car picked up the deserted path as much as it could......
