Chapter 62: Divine Grace is Like the Sea
Where is this?
When the prefect raised his eyes, he saw boundless green grass, flowers blooming, and a clear stream fluttering from a distance, and trickling in front of him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThe land is full of small beasts running around on its own, and the sky is blue and clear. Countless birds flutter their wings and fly by, leaving behind a crisp birdsong.
Is this heaven?
The prefect asked. In fact, he is not the only one asking. Everyone who traveled along the way was asking.
A verdant green mountain in the distance is in sight, and a few golden tiles reveal a few traces of solemnity, like a few naughty embellishments in a piece of green, which makes people yearn for it infinitely.
The officers and soldiers under the prefect came, their faces ashamed and terrified. The officers were originally going to come forward to admit their mistakes on behalf of everyone, but the prefect waved his hand and said, "Life and death, what else haven't you seen?" The official has forgotten it, so why are you mentioning it? ā
The prefect made it clear that he was not to blame for the past, but it made the people of the people below even more worried, I don't know if what the prefect said is true or false, whether it is true that he is not to blame for the past, or is he ready to settle accounts after the autumn?
Stepping on the grass, breathing the fresh and humid air, the blue sky above his head, and the warm sunshine of the morning sun on his back, the prefect gave an order, and all the people lined up and walked towards the Qingshan Taoist Temple and the jungle of the Western Regions in the distance.
"Master, we still have to destroy the Taoist temple and arrest the Taoist priest?" After so many things, with the god-like miracle in front of him, after life and death, even the entourage around the prefect seemed to be full of devotion to the gods. I asked very uneasily.
The entourage asked, and the officers around him immediately turned their heads and looked at their superiors with an uneasy expression. I'm afraid that what the prefect's entourage asked is now the question that everyone wants to ask.
Or if the prefect is still determined to follow the persuasion of the barbarians, go and destroy the temple and arrest the Taoist. Maybe the crowd will fry the pot immediately, and it may not be the other way around on the spot.
Fortunately, how could the prefect do such a thing?
"Let's go to worship the mountain." The prefect replied.
There was a cheer from the crowd, and even the speed of the march was several points faster.
Deep mountain Taoist temple, ten jungles. From the moment the prefect and his subordinates stepped on the winding mountain road, the breeze was blowing and the vegetation was fragrant. There is an indescribable tranquility in the whole body, and all fatigue, hunger and thirst, and thoughts are swept away.
"The first to take refuge in the wonderful way, the most respectful two Xuanzhen.
Today's fortune is discussed with one heart, and the reason for this scripture is roughly understood.
Emptiness and color are void and void, and there is no color and emptiness.
The wisdom of the wind comes from the power of Tianzun, sweeping away the heart and leaving no dust.
May the light of God always support it, and prove that the alliance is a guardian today.
What is the proof of guarding the heart today, without losing the ..... of the Taoist body" Far away, the sound of scripture recitation in the Taoist temple came, if it was far away, if it was near, it seemed to be nothing. But word for word is clearly imprinted in everyone's minds. There was no more noise in the crowd, and even the birds that had been singing stopped singing and listened quietly. Everyone unconsciously lightened their steps and walked towards the Taoist temple on the mountain step by step with determination and reverence.
"Baiyun Yellow Crane Dao family, a piano, a sword and a cup of tea, the feather coat is often smoky, and it does not stain the peach and plum flowers in the world." The Taoist temple is already close in front of you, among the green mountains and jungles, under the reflection of the sun, the brilliant Taoist temple comes into view. The Taoist priests seemed to have finished their morning class, and the sound of scripture recitation had just stopped. The surrounding mountains and forests are lively again.
"Immortal blessed land, Taoist cave. Maybe it is not bad to get rid of all kinds of troubles, cultivate here for a lifetime, look down on the red dust, and be at ease. The prefect suddenly had a thought, and said secretly.
"Squeak!" The door of the Taoist temple slowly opened, and two boys came out from behind the door. Tsing Yi and white shoes, but combing two horns. With red lips and white teeth, a pair of clever villains.
"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! The two masters invited a few adults to come in and talk about it. Xiaodao Tong bowed. One board and one eye, meticulous as an adult.
The mountains and rivers are smoky, and the clear spring is a handful of fairy homes. The prefect saw two "immortals" in a grass pavilion.
An old fairy with white hair hanging down and a crane-haired childish face. A young Taoist who looks young, but has a sense of being out of the dust.
"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! The prefect is not harmed? When the young Taoist saw that Lord Fu had arrived, he smiled and put down the white jade cloud in his hand. He stood up and saluted to the prefect.
"You, you. You're the one..."The prefect was just about to salute, and when he saw the young Taoist priest, he was speechless with excitement.
Isn't this the same person we met when we were teenagers and saved him in my dream last night?
"After a long time, the chief horn boy under the wings of his loving mother is now also a shepherd! It's just the past, do you remember the promise made in front of Sanqing back then? The young Taoist asked with a smile.
At this time, the prefect had a thousand feelings in his heart, and when he thought of his mother, who had been dead for many years, tears were almost about to burst out of his eyes, and he held back dangerously.
Thirty years have passed, and the Taoist of the year still has the same face, but he is already middle-aged. I have eyes and don't know real faces, but I still have to do a lot of foolish things.
"The disciple is ashamed of his mother and the immortal master. He also asked the immortal master to forgive his disciples for their past stupidity and ignorance, and all kinds of evil deeds. The prefect knelt on the ground and said.
"Right and wrong, bear cause and effect. The poor road deserves it, and it can't afford it. You don't have to thank the poor for not dying in this great disaster, return to your hometown, but thank your mother at the grave! If it weren't for your mother's presence in front of the gods, she would be willing to die and bless you with a safe life. I'm afraid you won't be able to get here! The young Taoist sighed.
"The disciple will die in the desert?" The prefect shuddered at the thought of that night. Yesterday was like a nightmare, and when I woke up from a dream, I still had palpitations.
"On your way into Beijing, a boat capsized, and you were left alone. Do you think you're really that lucky? If it weren't for your mother's **** pious prayer, the mercy of the three officials, and the relief of misfortune and disaster for you, I am afraid that you would have died a long time ago, where did you come today? The young Taoist said.
"And if you hadn't had something happen to you in the desert. Will you and I ever see each other again? Heaven bears the burden, and one thought of cause and effect. Thou hast listened to falsehood, and thou hast become wicked. If you really succeed in destroying this Taoist temple, do you think that you will be able to move around at the end of your term? The young Taoist asked angrily.
"If you break the permanent residence, you will fall into the infernal hell, hundreds of billions of eons, and seek no time. This is true for Buddhist temples, and so is Taoism. Do you really not know the cause and effect? Before the young Taoist priest could speak, the old immortal spoke.
"See for yourself!" The young Taoist stretched out his hand, and a book appeared in front of the prefect.
When the prefect picked it up and looked at it, he immediately asked profusely, "How can they be like this, how can they be like this?" The disciples have tried their best to accommodate them, huh? ā
"It's normal! You are not their own people, you are Han Chinese, and you are not a religious believer, how can you compare to their own people to be the prefect of Dunhuang? The young Taoist sneered.
In the recital, it is accused of telling the people of the house, not caring for the people's livelihood, and embezzling bribes. Destroy temples and oppress the good. Creating unjust cases is unclear about right and wrong, and it is unscrupulous. is talking about the prefect's anger and resentment, whether it is the people of the gods (even the people of x are forbidden now) or the Han people, they dare to be angry with him.
If the imperial court really came down to investigate, the people of the gods would not say good things about him, and Han Ming would definitely wish for his early death. When the official reaches this point, the prefect is considered a failure. In addition, if this Taoist temple is really destroyed, although the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism are not harmonious, after all, Ni is on the wall, and he is humiliated outside. Surely he will not be spared.
This is a good pit dug by others, but it is the prefect who is buried.
"Ask the immortals for advice!" The prefect was both remorseful and hateful. It turns out that the previous plans were so ignorant, and it is really sad and ridiculous to get rid of the obstacles of the past and look at yourself yesterday today!
"God's grace is like the sea, and God's power is like hell. Reverence in the heart, always remembering kindness. The upper body is the heart of heaven, and the lower is the people. Uphold the Tao impartially and protect the Taoism. What can you do? The young Taoist asked with a smile. (To be continued.) )
