Chapter 70: Superstition

In fact, this so-called Hundred Buddha Flow is the light and shadow effect that comes with the Black Cloud Cloak when it activates the defensive state. Fortunately, Qingshan once inadvertently saw that Su Xiuli also had a similar effect in a report, so when Jimo invited him, he used it as an excuse, but he didn't expect that Jimo, the old guy, had a deeper study of Su Xiu than himself, and directly helped himself find several theoretical bases, so Qingshan dared to perform on stage so grandly, and the effect was naturally shocking to the audience.

However, Aoyama was proud, and Igarashi, who appeared behind him, was depressed, because the effect of Aoyama's hundred Buddha clothes just now was too shocking, so when he came on the stage, everyone was still immersed in the shock just now, and few people paid attention to his performance at all.

Looking at Igarashi's depressed and aggrieved expression after stepping down, Aoyama couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Hey, there's nothing in the world, mediocre people disturb themselves!"

Ayumi on the side echoed: "Isn't it, Master Jimo originally arranged for him to appear before you, but he didn't do it, he had to press the scene behind you, but he didn't want to think about it, why the representative of this hospital, Takeda, and me, the special guests, were lined up in front of you, not because he was afraid that you would steal the limelight, but he was good, and he had to rush to find death, so it was no wonder that others." ”

Qingshan said in his heart, it was you and Jimo who saw the effect of the black cloud cloak in advance, and knew that they couldn't steal the limelight, so they were willing to line up in front of me, but at this moment, he naturally didn't say this, but changed the topic and asked, "By the way, Miss Ito, do you really want to go back to Hongfa Temple with me?"

Ayumi nodded and replied, "Yes, it just so happens that I'm fine these days, go and see Koboji Temple, which is famous for its Buddhist relics, and then go and see my poor cousin." What's the matter, you're not welcome?"

"How is this possible, how can someone like you not welcome a beautiful benefactor?" Qingshan hurriedly defended.

In fact, the reason why Ayumi wants to go to Kobo Temple is more because he was aroused by Aoyama's curiosity, and his cousin boasted about Aoyama Hongsuke when he chatted on the Internet before, and she didn't believe it yet, but this meeting, at least his "black cloud robe" It was to make herself dumbfounded, and she did have a little time in the past two days, so she wanted to go over to see if this abbot of Aoyama was as magical as the legend, but what she never expected was that as soon as she arrived at Hongfa Temple, something happened that she admired very much, and this matter Aoyama Hongsuke did not rely on those magical items.

As soon as the two of them went up the mountain, they saw a man and a woman arguing, although there were people next to them who were persuading, but the effect was not great, at this time as soon as they saw Qingshan appear, as a knowing guest, Shimizu Fumijia hurriedly ran over to Qingshan and said: "Abbot, you can come back, hurry up and persuade it, this gentleman is really too much." ”

"Don't worry, tell me what the hell is going on?"

"That's right, abbot, this Miss Takei has come to you to do something to her mother who has just passed away, but her brother said that we are all superstitious and deceitful, and he has to drag his sister away, so the two of them quarreled like this. Shimizu Fumi explained angrily.

Although Qingshan also thinks that the monks and Taoists doing things to the dead are purely feudal superstition and deception, but you go to the monk's temple and say this, isn't it?

However, Qingshan can't let the two of them quarrel like this, especially this guy called Wujingshan, in case he comes up with a few more inappropriate words, which affects his pilgrim's confidence, it will be troublesome, so after sorting out his thoughts a little, Qingshan walked over, first put his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name, and then persuaded: "The poor monk is the abbot of this temple, Aoyama Hongsuke, the two of you will stop first, listen to me!"

Aoyama first said to Takei Lan: "Miss Takei is filial piety and touching, and she can find the poor monk despite the long distance and Bashan's conviction, and it is also a trust in the poor monk." Please rest assured, although poor monks rarely practice for others, I will not shirk your mother's rituals and will do my best!"

Then he turned his head to Takei Mountain, who was just about to open his mouth, and said: "Mr. Takei, don't worry, I can understand your thoughts, indeed, from the perspective of natural science, people die like lights out, ossification is gone, and there is no soul or rebirth in nature, so the so-called Dharma is indeed nonsense, and it can also be called superstition. ”

As soon as Qingshan's words came out, everyone was stunned, even Shimizu Fumiya, who was standing aside and looking forward to Qingshan's might, was stunned, and anyone could say the abbot of Xindao, "The monk's practice is superstition", but you can't say it, isn't this equivalent to destroying the signboard?

Just when everyone was surprised, Qingshan suddenly changed his words: "But please think about it from another angle, what is superstition? Superstition and superstition are because of the connection in your heart, although you don't believe it, but because of the connection in your heart, you feel that there are some things between the underworld, for example, even if yin and yang are separated, they also cut off the relationship between mother and son, the so-called nine springs, the so-called spirit in the sky, are all imaginary, but because of the feelings and thoughts of the living, Attachment is tied to it, so there is this superstition, even if the deceased is gone, we still want to believe that she is still with us...... It's not so much superstition as the living seeking peace of mind and psychological comfort......"

Qingshan's explanation can be said to be quite wonderful, a few twists and turns are not far-fetched, and even from materialism to idealism are logical. After saying this, not to mention those pilgrims who believe in Buddhism themselves, even Ayumi, who was originally a staunch atheist, had to nod his head and say yes, secretly praising in his heart that it seems that this abbot of Aoyama is indeed level.

The younger sister said to her brother with tears in her eyes that the conditions at home were not good when she was a child, and how did her mother work hard to support the brothers and sisters to go to college, and now that the life is good, my mother has not lived a good life for a few days, and now that my mother is gone, shouldn't we do our filial piety for the last time? Even if the deceased doesn't know, can the living bear to ignore it?

Wujingshan, who said this, sighed, his eyes were red, and he walked to Qingshan's side and bowed: "I'm sorry, Abbot Qingshan, it's me who doesn't know the reason, and I just said something disrespectful, please forgive me!"

Qingshan waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's okay, I suddenly lost my loved ones, and I was excited, which is understandable." Then he said in a shocking voice: "Mr. Takei, if I'm not mistaken, you should be sick, right?"
