Chapter 201: The Buddha and the Insect Catcher

After Buddhism moved eastward, it slowly evolved into eight Mahayana sects and two Hinayana sects, collectively known as the Ten Sects of Buddhism. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info later the decline of Hinayana and is also known as the Eight Sects of Buddhism.

These eight sects are all based on ancient Buddhism, extended, integrated, and mixed with many local cultures, and then formed after the sect was formed.

The development of Buddhism in the eastern region was not all smooth sailing, only clearly recorded, there are the Northern Wei Emperor Taiwu Emperor, Northern Zhou Emperor Wu Emperor, Tang Wuzong, and the Later Zhou Shizong four Buddha extermination campaigns, known as the "three martial arts and one sect" Dharma martyrdom.

The reason for this is nothing more than three points: consolidating the rule, fighting with the Tao and Buddha, and dying by oneself.

Take Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty as an example, he didn't hate Buddhism at first, but later, a courtier named Cui Hao came out, Cui Hao was a disciple of Taoism and studied under Kou Qianzhi.

The pair of masters and apprentices were deeply trusted by Emperor Taiwu, and Cui Hao exhorted the Buddha to exterminate the Buddha in order to respect Taoism. On the surface, this incident was caused by him, but in essence, it was the fall of Buddhism at that time that led to the catastrophe.

When Emperor Taiwu first banned Buddhism, he didn't go too far, but two years later, he led his troops to fight and went to Chang'an to recuperate, and found that his entourage and the monks of the temple ate meat and drank wine.

He felt that it was inappropriate, so he sent troops to inspect it, and found that there were a large number of weapons and wine stored in the temple, hiding the belongings of officials and nobles, and secret rooms where he had private affairs with women.

This made him furious, issued an edict to destroy the Buddha, destroyed the Buddha statues, monasteries, scriptures, and killed the monks regardless of their size. Of course, Cui Hao did not die well in the end, and was killed by Emperor Taiwu.

In Buddhist parlance, this is called such a cause and such an effect.

In Taoist parlance, this is called a blessing and a curse, but people call themselves.

In Xiao Zhai's words, Ya is to die.

……

"Buddhism is different from Taoism, Taoism has been declining since the Song Dynasty, although Buddhism has had a catastrophe, but the following dynasties and generations are very prosperous. ”

On the big bed, Xiao Zhai and Gu Yu hugged each other and lay down, it was a scene of you and me, but they were talking about things that couldn't be hit by eight poles.

"In the past few months, I have been to Shaolin Temple, Daci'en Temple, Huayan Temple, and Guoqing Temple...... Except for the Tantric Ancestral Court, I ran all over it. I didn't find any dry goods, they were all common Buddhist scriptures, but I also learned about some. ”

"Zen Buddhism is meditation, pointing directly at people's hearts, and becoming a Buddha by seeing nature. ”

"The Pure Land sect is to recite the Buddha, cultivate pure karma, gain cause and effect, and be reborn in bliss. ”

"Vinaya is the practice of precepts, purifying oneself, in order to become a Buddha. ”

"Huayan Sect preaches the origin of the Dharma realm, and the six phases are harmonious ......"

"Wait a minute, what the hell is the origin of the Law Realm?" Gu Yu interrupted.

That is, all the Dharma in the world and out of the world arises under certain conditions, and without the single mind, there is no Dharma existence. ”

Xiao Zhai explained slightly, and seeing that the other party was still very confused, he came directly: "The heart said that there should be light, so there is light!"

"Oh, kind of understood. Gu Yu was stunned.

"The teachings of the Huayan sect are the theoretical foundation of the eight sects, including the Faxiang sect, the Three Treatises sect and the Tiantai sect, all of which have similarities. Actually, you just need to understand one concept, and Alaya knows ......"

She sat up, leaned against the snow-white wall, put her feet on her boyfriend's waist, and said, "People first have five senses, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body, the sixth consciousness is consciousness, and the seventh consciousness is called the last consciousness, which is the subconscious. And the eighth consciousness is the alayya consciousness.

This is a very abstract thing, a collection of human nature and delusion, the sustenance of the seeds of good and evil. Every sentient being, every thought or verbal action, creates a karma. This kind of seed is hidden in the consciousness of alayas before they are retribution......"

She belongs to the academic bully personality, and she is very keen to study some theoretical knowledge, and she talks in simple terms.

Gu Yu listened very carefully, and suddenly sat up and said, "I understand, I understand! First of all, you have to believe in Buddhism, believe that there is cause and effect in the world, and cause and effect are hidden in the Alayya consciousness, and the alaya consciousness has given birth to many Dharma realms. You are trapped by cause and effect, and everything you do has karma that determines whether you go to hell or the Pure Land of Bliss when you die. ”

"Good generalization!"

Xiao Zhai praised and added: "If you want to go to the Pure Land, one is to cultivate by yourself, and the other is to believe in Buddhism. Cultivation is the main force, believing in the Buddha is his power, and the Buddha will give you his strength and help you ascend to heaven. If you do something bad, you will still have karma to go to hell and be punished. ”

"Tsk, Buddhism is so idealistic! If this standard is followed, the current masters are indeed not good. Gu Yu shook his head.

Taoism pays attention to the unity of heaven and man, and the Tao is natural. The avenue is ahead, overcoming thorns and thorns, and there is no turning back. If you cultivate to the heavenly immortals, you can shine with the universe and be with eternity.

Buddhists must first believe, and if you believe in the Buddha, the Buddha will give you strength. The cultivation realm is also related to the Dharma, and the higher the Dharma, the greater the ability. And the Buddhism has been passed down to the present, and the exercises must be missing, and with an atmosphere that is even more corrupt than the Taoist Gate, it is too difficult to come up with a master. What's more, even if you are reborn in bliss, you will only go to the Buddha country to meet the Buddha, not talk about your own eternity.

"Anyway, I didn't see any magical powers, and I was bored...... Hey, do you know what the most interesting thing about my trip is?"

Xiao Zhai didn't wait for him to answer, and said to himself: "When I went to Xiangji Temple, I really met an old monk. He was profound in Buddhism and told me a lot of things, what good and evil cause and effect will eventually be rewarded.

I said it's bad, although I haven't done evil, but my boyfriend has done evil, will he go to hell if he dies?"

"Poof!"

Gu Yu suddenly squirted, is this woman biological?

"The master taught me that knowing mistakes can improve a lot. I said that sometimes I can't help it, I have to go back, otherwise my heart will not be smooth. ”

"The master said that if you commit the ten negative karma, after death, you will incur the three evil realms of hell, hungry ghosts, and beasts, and you will never be reborn. ”

"Then what did you say?" Gu Yu was curious.

She didn't answer, but asked, "What would you do if you were there?"

Gu Yu thought for a while and said, "I have killed people, and I still don't repent, and if I die, I will go to hell, so ...... Isn't my immortality over?"

"Hahaha!"

When Xiao Zhai heard this, he suddenly laughed, fell on top of him, and panted slightly: "Not a word is bad!"

"Heh......"

Gu Yu was also happy to hear it, which may be the reason why the two of them were able to come together.

It was dusk, the window beside the bed was ajar, the curtains were open, and a thin layer of sunlight was pouring in, painting the floor with a soft color. Downstairs, the boss seemed to have gone home with the child, and there were bursts of immature shouts of hunger, as well as the persuasion of the proprietress.

Xiao Zhai laughed for a while before relieving himself, raised his head, and when he looked at the man again, there was more impulse in his eyes. The spirit and rhino are intimate, and the love is inherently difficult to suppress.

She straightened up, stepped her long legs, and rode on his waist.

"Why ......?"

Gu Yu shook back and propped up the bed with both hands, quite helpless.

"I'm going to commit adultery. ”

"In broad daylight, can't you wait a while?"

"Whoa!"

A light breeze responded to him, and with a wave of his hand, the curtain was drawn to that end, and the light suddenly dimmed. She leaned forward and bit Gu Yu's neck:

"Is there a big desire for people, is it still divided into morning and evening?"

…………

Next.

There are more than a dozen farmhouses in Grape Valley, most of which are empty. This is the largest one, full of littered household items and garbage, and two hens who are too lazy to dispose of are wandering around the yard without heart or lungs.

"Giggles!"

A hen seemed to have found a worm and ran to peck at it, but it didn't take a few steps, and her body was light, but she was lifted up.

It didn't even flap its wings before it passed out and was stuffed into its pocket, and the other one was just as poisonous. Immediately after, the two chicken thieves secretly poked out of the yard and ran all the way to the Flame Mountain, it was Gu Yu and Xiao Zhai.

They carried their bags up the hill and came to the vicinity of the cave, where a large rock hung over the top. At this moment, the sun has not yet turned to its position, and there is still a shadow.

"The passage inside is so narrow that you can only crawl in and out. If it could be more spacious, we would have gone in and the puppets would have been able to come out. Gu Yu said.

"Enlarge the opening of the cave first, so as not to get in the way. Xiao Zhai looked at it.

"You stand back. ”

Gu Yu stepped forward a few steps, and as soon as his mind moved, the seven fire cloud needles that had been refined appeared in front of him, and the crimson light shone dazzlingly. He manipulated the magic weapon, arranged vertically in the air, end to end, like a brilliant dagger.

"Poof!"

The dagger stabbed violently, piercing into the mountain rock until it disappeared completely. Immediately, I listened to the trembling of the rock mass, and the gravel powder fell wildly.

"Boom!"

As a large rock fell to the ground, a large gap appeared above the hole.

"It should be enough. ”

Xiao Zhai blindfolded the two hens, tied them with tough ropes, and then swiped his fingers on the chickens' necks, and the blood flowed instantly.

"Giggle...... Giggle......"

The hen screamed in pain and fluttered her wings vigorously, but she couldn't break free.

Xiao Zhai cat bent on his waist, looked inside, and shook the two chickens hard. As soon as they landed, they screamed even more miserably, and ran blindly like crazy.

Chickens generally run in circles, but the instinct of the animals makes them feel that there are two powerful breaths guarding behind, and they dare not retreat at all, but can only keep moving forward.

"Giggle...... Boom......"

The two of them waited outside, only to hear the sound getting weaker and weaker, but in fact, no one had a score, and they didn't know if they could hook the worms out.

After about ten seconds, I suddenly heard the sound of a rooster crow suddenly rising, and the rope began to vibrate violently.

"Close!"

Gu Yu's eyes lit up.

Immediately, the two of them pulled each other and pulled the rope out very quickly. I saw that the two hens had turned into chicken racks, and there were still a few black worms hanging on their bodies.

The black worms seemed to sense the danger, and before they could fully show their heads, they ran in a panic. Xiao Zhai was wearing gloves, and with a stroke of his long arm, he pinched one.

The worm squeaked, and its lotus-like mouthparts opened as if to squirt venom. As a result, with a snort, a tiny ray of lightning pierced through his chest.

The black worm suddenly stiffened, and the mighty thunder power suppressed it in its body, and it didn't dare to move at all.

She carefully tucked it into her pocket, and covered it tightly from the sun. Such a disgusting thing, they are reluctant to put it in the wooden box, it is easy to have shadows.

It's not that Gu Yu can't catch it himself, but it's useless to catch it. He doesn't know as much about those eccentric inheritances as his girlfriend, so he is not a top student.

……

That night, the hotel.

The lights in the small courtyard are on, and in the dark night around them, it looks particularly prominent and sad. The boss and the hostess, who have always had a good relationship, unexpectedly quarreled, mixed with the crying of children, regardless of the fact that there were still guests living upstairs.

Of course, the two of them didn't care, and they were nesting in the room studying the black worm.

Two layers of thick cotton cloth were laid on the table, and Lent sat down at the table and opened his pockets. She slapped it with her palm, and the insect was silent about the thunderous breath, and crawled out honestly.

The size of a fist, with eight long barbed legs, large mouthparts, and prominent eyes, a bit like the compound eyes of a fly.

Xiao Zhai looked at it over and over for a long time, but found no abnormality, brushed out the dagger, and erected everything.

"Poof!"

The worm's skull rolled aside, and a black liquid spewed out from the fracture, staining a piece of cotton cloth. She looked at the cloth and said, "It's not corrosive, but it can be poisonous, it's not like blood, it's weird and weird......"

She muttered a few words, her hand did not stop, and she cut off all eight long feet one by one, and then cut open her stomach directly along a fine line on her chest.

"Huh?"

Both of them were surprised that the worm's belly was empty, with no internal organs, no bones, and no flesh.

"This defies common sense!"

Xiao Zhai frowned, distressed and silent.

"Uh, do you think it's possible, it's the legendary corpse turtle?" Gu Yu asked.

"No, no, I've read Master's collection of books, and they contain detailed records. ”

Xiao Zhai denied it, explaining: "Corpse turtles live by eating corpses, but they conform to biological structures and belong to nature. But this kind of black worm seems to have been cultivated by some secret method...... Hey, you said the cave was full of puppets?"

"Yes. ”

"What's in the puppet?"

"I didn't look closely, it looked like a baby corpse. ”

"Baby corpse, baby corpse ......"

She muttered to herself, and after a long while, she said, "I thought of a possibility that those corpses were the medium of the bugs." There are no such creatures in nature, and it is only through the use of infant corpses and secret methods that these bugs can be born. The Daomen don't use such methods, I think it's a lot like witchcraft...... Hey, look!"

She turned the worm upside down, found no clue, and went to cut the head again. As a result, just as he was about to go under the knife, his hand suddenly stopped.

"Look at the back of its head, this overall shape and texture, does it look like a ghost face?"

Gu Yu took a look, not to mention, it really looked like a small and hideous grimace. And there are two red dots on the back of the head, which just fall on the eyes.

He suddenly remembered that the two times he had seen it were both red-pupiled ghost faces!

"It can't be such a coincidence, can it?" he muttered.

"Of course not!"

Xiao Zhai acted quickly, turned out the pen and began to trace, and said: "You fought with the ghost face, the puppet is still the ghost face, and the insect is the ghost face." Those who practice witchcraft love totem worship, which may be their symbol. I have heard a lot of people who worship heaven and earth, water and fire, but they worship ghosts ......"

She threw the pen and pressed the vivid grimace, "There is only the way of shamanism!"

(Check the results of the college entrance examination quickly, I wish several good children in the group good grades and successful studies...... )
