Chapter 545: The Strange World Is Unknown
When the incident began, because he was expected by all, they forcibly wrapped him in the army.
As a result, Liangshan was defeated in the first battle.
Seeing that the boat was narrow and far from the shore, Varman concluded that someone would die, so it was better to jump down himself, so he could save one more person, so he praised Guanyin with all his heart, and jumped into the river with a bamboo cane in his hand.
He was surprised that the water had not reached his knees, so he paddled with bamboo and swam towards the blurred water's edge.
Suddenly, a boy came from behind, took him by the hand, and he turned back and said, "How can you, a child who does not urinate frequently, survive me?
In a trance, I realized that after walking more than a dozen steps, I reached the shore.
He took off his robe and wanted to repay the boy, but when he looked up, there was no one.
Bhadra's hair stood on end, knowing that it was the help of the gods.
Emperor Xiaowu ordered: Find Mahayan to take care of him and escort him to the capital.
Soon, he appeared in front of Emperor Xiaowu.
After Xuanxuan, Emperor Xiaowu asked him what had happened, and said to him, "I have been looking forward to the Master for a long time, and I have only met today. β
"The poor monk has been tainted with sin, and he should be crushed to pieces. Now he has been received by His Majesty, as if he has been reborn and recreated. β
"The mage doesn't have to blame himself too much, the sin is in the righteous declaration. Let me ask you, who are those who are involved in the rebellion?"
"The monks don't participate in the military, but Zhang Chang and Song Lingxiu have persecuted me. The only thing that the poor monk understands is that it is determined by fate, and it is difficult to escape this catastrophe. β
"Rest assured, there's nothing to be afraid of. From now on, you will live in the back hall, and I will always ask for advice. β
At the end of the meeting, Bhadra was still enshrined as a high monk.
When he was in Jingzhou for ten years, he exchanged letters with King Chen, all of which were recorded.
After quelling the rebellion, the court sent people to check the letters, and found that he did not even say a word about the military.
Emperor Xiaowu believed in his purity and prudence, and his courtesy became more and more generous.
In addition to talking about Taoism, the two also talked about landscape characters. Xiaowu joked with him: "Do you miss the prime minister?"
"How can I forget his kindness after receiving ten years of his offerings? Now I beseech your majesty that I will burn incense for him for three years. β
"The mage is indeed benevolent and righteous, and I promise you. Xiaowu couldn't help but look miserable after hearing this, he had no reason to refuse.
As the years passed, Bhadra finally grew old.
Emperor Xiaowu held a banquet in the Eastern Palace, and the princes and ministers gathered and ordered to summon Bhadra.
At that time, Bhadra had not yet had time to clean his hair, and his eyebrows were white.
Emperor Xiaowu looked at him from afar, turned to Shangshu Xie Zhuang and said, "Mahayan is smart and understanding, but he is old. I will ask him, and he will understand. β
Bhadra stepped up the steps, and Emperor Xiaowu stepped forward to greet him: "Mahayan lives up to the meaning of coming from afar, but there is only one." β
"It has been nearly 30 years since the poor monks came to return to the imperial capital. The kindness and courtesy of the Son of Heaven made me ashamed. But when he was over seventy, he was old and sick, and only one died. He replied.
Xiaowu ordered him to sit close to him, and the Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military forces were all eye-catching.
Bhadra built a temple on the west side of the Phoenix Tower in the territory of Moling.
In the middle of the night, I heard the sound of the door being pushed and called, but no one was there.
The monks also had strange dreams, and some people often screamed and screamed in their dreams, as if they were tortured. Bhadra burned incense and vowed: "You are here for your fate, and I am building a temple and performing prayers and confessions so that you can be liberated as soon as possible." If you want to live, be a protector of the Dharma, and if you don't live, find your own place to live in peace. β
That night, more than a dozen monks and laymen dreamed of thousands of ghosts and gods, carrying the burden and moving it, and everyone was at peace from then on.
In the sixth year of the Ming Dynasty, there was a great drought in the world, and everyone prayed for mountains and rivers, but there was no effect for several months.
Xiaowu asked Bhadra to ask for rain, and said very ruthlessly: "Master is clever, you must move the heavens, if there is no miracle, don't meet again." β
"What merit does the poor monk have? However, relying on the Three Treasures of Buddhism and His Majesty's Heavenly Might, there will definitely be a rain of rain. If it doesn't work, it's the old man's insincerity, and he won't have the shame to see His Majesty again. "Bhadra knows that kings have always been used by me, and there is nothing to say.
He went to the Diaoyutai of Beihu Lake to burn incense and pray, did not eat or drink, silently recited the scriptures, and added a divine mantra.
At dawn the next day, dark clouds emerged from the northwest like the canopy of a car.
When the sun sets, a storm rises, clouds converge, and heavy rain falls from the sky.
Bhadra stands still in the rain like a black stone.
When Emperor Ming was in power, he was treated as a national treasure.
He was visibly old, and in his old age he had many memories and spare time, and he used to play with the incense burner that he had held for decades, and often watched the birds that came to him for foodβfor decades, he always gave the surplus to the birds after he had eaten.
The small, lively creature chirped and flew away, his unfathomable eyes facing the sky, and in the mishes, he seemed to see something.
In the first month of the fourth year of Taishi, he felt that his days were numbered, so he calmly said goodbye to everyone, emperors, ministers, famous monks, famous scholars, disciples, familiar faces were sad for him, but he always smiled.
On his deathbed, he stood for a long time facing the west, his eyes shining brightly, and he said to his attendants, "Look at the smallpox and the icons. Then he went back to the house and died.
The little monk saw that An Xiaoyu was fascinated by what he heard, and said, "Donor, I'll tell you about the deeds of Master Baozhi again." β
Bao Zhi's original surname is Zhu, a young monk, with the master to practice Zen, has always been respectful and diligent, to the early years of the Song Dynasty but suddenly became strange, uncertain, eating and drinking, a few inches of hair unkempt as grass, but not combed or shaved.
With a tin cane on his shoulder, and some knives, scissors, mirrors, cloth, and other things hanging from the head of the cane, he often walked barefoot through the streets and alleys.
By the time of Qi Jianyuan, it was even more strange.
He smiled and said some brainless words to people, and people didn't care, and later encountered a change, and then remembered Baozhi's words, it was clear that he was talking about omens.
Sometimes there is a poem or two, the words are like proverbs, and sometimes there are days without food, but there is no hunger on the face.
Baozhi's reputation grew, and soon the monks and laymen in the capital worshipped him as a teacher.
Emperor Xiao Zhen of Qi Wu saw that his influence was becoming more and more widespread, so he put him in prison on charges of fraud and confusing the people.
The next day, a jailer wandered in the downtown area, and when he saw Bao Zhi talking and laughing there, he suddenly became puzzled and quietly returned to the prison, where he found Bao Zhi still meditating on the ground.
"Is it so hard that I'm dazzled?" The jailer asked himself.
One day, Bao Zhi suddenly shouted to the jailer: "Haha! There are two people outside the door who have come to bring me food!
Sure enough, Prince Wenhui and King Xiao Ziliang of Jingling came to bring him food.
Jiankang ordered Lu Wenxian to report the matter to Emperor Wu, and Emperor Wu saw that he was really not a mortal, so he welcomed him into the palace.
Soon, another Baozhi appeared on Jingyang Mountain, with seven monks.
Emperor Wu was furious and ordered to send someone to inspect the back hall and look around, but there was no trace of Baozhi.
The doorman said: "Bao Zhi went out very early, and when I looked at him, I saw that he was painting himself with ink. β
When the monk Zhengfa saw that his clothes were torn, he wanted to give him one, and sent people to the two temples of Zhengbin and Longxing to look for him, and they all said: "I spent last night here, and I left in the morning." β
He also found Uncle Li's house, which he frequented, and Uncle Hou said, "He preached here last night, and he hasn't woken up yet." β
The visitor listened with bated breath, and sure enough, the sound of vinegar came. At this time, Fa Xian understood: "He spent the night in three places." β
Bao Zhi often walked around with his chest and back bare-chested in the middle of winter, and the monk Baoliang intended to give him a robe, but he didn't have a chance.
One day, Bao Zhi suddenly entered the door, took his coat and left, and Bao Liang was dumbfounded.
Sometimes Bao Zhi asks for sashimi, and the donor does it for him, and he just bows his head and munches on it.
After Bao Zhi left, the fish in the basin were still jumping lively.
Bao Zhi is not a type of character who only plays small spells, he saw that Emperor Wu was cruel and murderous, so he lent him divine power.
Emperor Wu saw that Emperor Xiao Daocheng was suffering endlessly from the aper knife in hell, and he repented and abolished the awl torture forever.
Baozhi had dealings with many prominent figures in the DPRK and China.
Wei Wei Hu was seriously ill and invited him to come and see, Bao Zhi looked at the patient's appearance and said, "Mingqu." β
The family couldn't figure it out, Bao Zhi didn't explain, and he didn't go again the next day, and Hu Huan died on the same day.
Afterwards, he said to people: "Mingqu, isn't it tomorrow that the corpse will come out?"
Taiwei Sima Yin Qizhi followed Chen Xianda out of Zhenjiang Prefecture and resigned to Baozhi.
Bao Zhi took out the paper and ink and drew a tree with a small bird standing on the branch. Say, "Keep it well." When things are critical, climb this tree. β
Later, Xianda rebelled and stayed in the town of Qi to guard Jiangzhou. The rebels quickly dispersed, Qi Zhi rushed into Lushan, the pursuers behind were very anxious, Qi Zhi was cornered, suddenly looked up, and saw a tree in the forest exactly the same as what Bao Zhi painted, isn't this a critical juncture? Qi Zhi couldn't care about much, whipped away the mount, hurriedly climbed to the leaves, and only noticed that a small bird on the branch looked at him, did not fly or move, Qi Zhi understood immediately.
The pursuers came and walked around the woods, and no one questioned the tree with a peaceful bird on its branches, and Qi Zhi was finally saved.
Tunqi Sangyan was ready to rebel and quietly went to Baozhi for advice.
As soon as Bao Zhi saw his figure, he ran and shouted: "Besiege the city, if you want to rebel, cut off your head and break your belly." β
Sang Yan knew something was wrong. Sure enough, before it was ten years old, the matter was revealed, and Sang Yan fled to Zhu Fang, where he was caught and ended up beheaded.
In the Liang Dynasty, the king of Poyang Zhonglie once invited Bao Zhi to the house to talk to each other, and while he was talking, Bao Zhi coldly asked for thorns, and the servants looked around and got the thorns, and Bao Zhi put them on the door, making a group of people inexplicable.
Soon, King Zhonglie served as the assassin of Jingzhou, and the mystery was revealed.
In the Liang Dynasty, the emperor issued an edict saying: "Although Zhigong's deeds are confined to the world, his mind swims freely outside the world, and water and fire cannot hurt tigers and snakes. β
In this way, Bao Zhi became more casual, when the weather was dry and not raining, he would chant the scriptures and ask for rain, and the emperor asked him how to relieve his troubles, and he explained carefully.
Later, Fayun explained the Lotus Sutra at Hualin Temple, which attracted a very strange black wind. Bao Zhi asked him, "Is there or not the black wind?"
"If it is said according to the common sense of the world, if it is said according to the first truth, it is not. Fayun replied.
What Fayun said involves the Buddhist concept of "emptiness".
From the world's point of view, things are real, you can see and touch them, you can feel them, but it is so difficult that you can say that there are none?
