Chapter 50: Blood Debt Repaid
Bai Lian remembered the story of the White Lady who opened a pharmacy to cure diseases and save people in "The Legend of the White Snake" and did good deeds. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info I have not studied medicine, so naturally I will not prescribe medicine and inject infusions. Why not follow what the Buddhist scriptures say, and give people great compassion to help the suffering? When I was in my hometown before, didn't I also give people divine water? Caused by faith, the gold and stone are open.
The immortal village she had visited a month ago in auspicious clouds was now in front of her again, this is a big village. The blind and paralyzed patients who were instantly cured were blind and paralyzed again within a few days.
The news of White Lotus's arrival once again caused a sensation in the village, and everyone wanted to see this legendary girl up close. The villagers invited Bai Lian to the paralyzed patient's house. Bai Lian saw that lying on the earthen kang was a skinny old woman with white hair.
"Girl, I've been sick for three years, and I feel like I'm dying, and I'm out of cure." A weak voice coming from deep in the patient's throat.
"Girl, can you cure me? Aren't you Guanyin Bodhisattva? We carried her out into the yard that day, and she saw you, and she stood up at once, but within a few days, she lay down again. This time you came to the house, and you will be cured no matter what. We've kowtowed to you! The patient's husband pleaded. He knelt down, and so did one of his twenty-somethings. "Please heal me, our family has been paralyzed for three years. Three whole years! My son hasn't married yet, and he's not even 50 years old! ”
The patient burst into tears. Her eyes were drying up from crying, and she was almost blind from crying. But on the day a month ago, she heard the shouts of the people, and she insisted that they take her out of the hospital, and her dim eyes saw the miracle of heaven, the Bodhisattva Guanyin, and she saw the seed of faith that had been planted in her heart since she was a child. Guanyin Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva, the Guanyin Bodhisattva of great mercy! Her heart was full of joy and excitement, like a spark bursting into flames. She called, and before she knew it, she stood up and stood up.
Now, Guanyin Bodhisattva is sitting next to her. Is it true? Is it the Guanyin Bodhisattva that day? It doesn't seem like it anymore. That day, Guanyin Bodhisattva was wearing white clothes, and it was in the sky, but today, she was wearing a sweater, which was naturally white, but she didn't look like Guanyin Bodhisattva. It's autumn outside, a cool breeze is blowing, people are changing their clothes, do Bodhisattvas also need to change their clothes? Are bodhisattvas also afraid of cold?
"Get up quickly." Bai Lian helped the father and son up and said, "What I want to tell you is that I am not Guanyin Bodhisattva. What you saw that day was not Guanyin Bodhisattva. ”
"But we saw that it's you, so many people can testify." A young man in the crowd said.
"Yes, I saw it too, it's this sister." A little girl said seriously. "You are Guanyin Bodhisattva, you are Guanyin Bodhisattva!"
Bai Lian felt very embarrassed, but when she heard these words, her heart felt both excited and relieved, and she also felt infinitely confused. "Is it true? Is it really in a dream? Bai Lian tried her best to calm herself.
"I guess it was in a dream." White Lotus said, "You don't have to believe it. In fact, the scene in the sky is also real and illusory, just like a rainbow, in fact, the heavens are just revealing to us, any miracle in the world can happen, as long as each of us has faith in our hearts, we will naturally see Guanyin Bodhisattva. Guanyin Bodhisattva is really in the midst of our world, in the hearts of each of us. ”
"Then you'd better show her." Someone in the crowd said.
"yes, let's show it, how pitiful. We believe in you! ”
"We believe in you!"
Bai Lian nodded. She had a square table set up on the floor of the house, with an incense burner and a cup of clean water. She lit three sticks of incense, then knelt on the ground and recited the "Great Compassion Mantra". People also knelt down with Bai Lian, clasped their hands together, and prayed silently.
After reciting the Great Compassion Mantra three times, Bai Lian got up and let the patient drink the water in the cup slowly.
"It feels so much better." The patient laughs.
"Can you stand up?" The husband said anxiously.
"Don't be too anxious, don't crave miracles. If the disease really gets better, it mainly depends on the cooperation of the patient himself and you, and you must work hard. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas save suffering, but Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are in our hearts! Bai Lian clasped his hands together and said.
"yes, take your time. How can it be all at once? Be patient. Other women have also worked hard, so take good care of them. An old man commanded comfortingly.
The people are going to disperse, and Bai Lian thinks that she always has to eat, so let's wait. Thinking that Tang Seng learned scriptures back then, she had to work hard to transform her fate, and she was happy in comparison.
"Oops!" Bai Lian screamed coldly. Her cry kept the footsteps of the people, and everyone looked at her in unison.
I saw that there were countless mosquitoes biting and biting on Bai Lian's face for no reason, countless flies gnawing on her head, and countless ants crawling around on her hands.
Bai Lian was so frightened that she danced with her hands, jumped from her house to the courtyard, ran home from the courtyard, and hid from her home to the courtyard. But mosquitoes, flies, and ants still don't go. Bai Lian couldn't bear to swatt the ants to death, but the mosquitoes and flies didn't let her catch them. She screamed and almost cried.
"What's going on? It's really evil. "People are feeling strange.
"That's right, this, this, this mosquito and fly can be explained, but how did this ant crawl into her hands? Where do so many ants climb up at once? ”
"Is there an ant nest on the ground on your kang?" People asked the host, "The little girl of the family treats your family, and she looks good or not, so you can't treat people like this, right?" ”
"That's it, you can't be kind enough to be a donkey's liver and lungs, and you will take revenge, right?"
"We don't have an ant nest at home, you see, you look for it, where is it?" The master said anxiously.
"No, this big autumn, it's not raining anymore, why are there so many ants?"
That is, she provoked it herself. Did she pretend to be Guanyin Bodhisattva and be punished? ”
"That's right, how can Guanyin Bodhisattva fake casually, she used the side door to deceive people, and she received retribution, right?"
"That's not nonsense."
Bai Lian heard these words, but what could she say at this moment? Defend yourself? Why did her good deeds meet unexpected strange things again? Thinking of what he encountered last time he went out of the mountain, he couldn't help but be annoyed, why did God make fun of her again and again? Is it fun? Why is it so hard for a person to do something good?
Bai Lian felt her anger, she began to be a little angry, she pointed to the other hand with one hand fiercely and said, "I have no grievances with you, why do you treat me like this?" ”
People saw that she was angry, but they didn't expect Guanyin Bodhisattva to be angry. How could she be Guanyin Bodhisattva?
"She's throwing a tantrum! A woman's temper! You see, is she like a bodhisattva? How can this virtue treat people? Someone in the crowd actually said this.
Bai Lian didn't hear people's ridicule of her, but she heard a whisper of voices from the air:
"You forgot, didn't you? Little girl, how many of our ants you trampled to death when you were a child, and the poor little life was lost in your careless walking. We're going to take revenge on you today! Let you know that you are a cold-blooded animal, never care about the existence of others, and pretend to be a bodhisattva! Have you done less evil? ”
"Hahahaha, do you remember how many flies you swatted to death? Do you think we are not all beings? For the sake of your cleanliness and purity, you will mercilessly slap us to death, let our corpses cover the glass, and make our flesh blurred, you know how ruthless you are! You're a heinous killer! You executioner! We're going to turn your hair into a garbage heap and a toilet today! Let you taste what life is better than death! ”
"You devil! What good deeds you do, what virtues you accumulate, what you do in the summer when you see people doing, how many mosquitoes you smoke us with wormwood! We just want to suck your blood and save our lives, but you don't have any compassion or mercy! It's good now, what kind of compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva is pretending, you are pretending! Ask yourself, Are you merciful? Don't even let go of mosquitoes, even small lives have to be destroyed with poisonous gas, are you still human? Are people like you? Today, I want you to pay off all the debts you owe! I want you to pay it back with blood! I'm going to bite your face all over the ground and make you an ugly bastard! Hahaha! ”
It is impossible for Bai Lian to calm her mind down. Her hands were clawed at her head, face, and hands, and her screams scurrying through the crowd. She had a complete sense of what she looked like in the eyes of people! She felt like she was crazy! Still hungry? Do you still see a doctor? Do you still think of yourself as a bodhisattva?
"Poor thing! Look what she has become! What iniquity has been created! ”
Bai Lian heard the people's chattering and sighing. She had to leave the crowd, leave the village, and flee to the mountains. I can't go back to the temple, and I can't be embarrassed to be bullied by the abbot.
Like an abandoned lonely ghost, she hid her face with her head in her hands, wept, and ran out of the village.
